Chapter 653 Are all these people crazy?
Lin Dong scratched his head, then turned to Zhu Chen and asked, "Big brother, do we really need a sect token to participate in this Genius Battle?"
Zhu Chen stated frankly, "It is indeed necessary. All the major forces in the three thousand Dao states have their own tokens, representing the inheritance of their lineage and their identity. Without a token, they don't even have the qualification to register."
Upon hearing this, Lin Dong's brows furrowed even more deeply: "Then what do we do? We're not some kind of sect or lineage, where are we going to get a token?"
Qin Changsheng smiled slightly, about to offer to help them prepare the Qin clan's tokens, but Zhu Chen spoke first:
"That's not entirely true. Besides sect tokens, there's another way to directly participate in the Genius Battle: through the Spirit Realm Trial or the Supreme Ancient Altar Ranking Battle. These two methods don't consider status or background; they only consider strength."
Lin Dong's eyes lit up, and he immediately became excited: "Spirit Realm Trial Assessment? That sounds like it'll get you some fighting! Big brother, let's go to this Spirit Realm Assessment! It'll be a good opportunity to have a few matches and warm up beforehand!"
Luo Feng nodded in agreement: "I also think that's a good idea. It's more meaningful to get in by relying on your own strength than to take shortcuts by using someone else's token. Besides, it's also a kind of experience."
Upon hearing that they were about to engage in another pointless fight, Han Li quickly intervened, saying, "Fifth Brother, Sixth Brother, calm down. Since the Spirit Realm Trial is an alternative route, it must be quite difficult. We finally obtained the Thunder Emperor's Treasure Technique; we should seize the time to comprehend and cultivate it to improve our strength, instead of wasting our time and energy on pointless battles. Besides, what if you get injured during the trial, affecting the official competition? Wouldn't that be a greater loss than gain?"
Lin Dong scoffed, "Third Brother, you're being too cautious. The Spirit Realm Trial is a form of training in itself. Combat is always the best way to improve; haven't you heard that? Besides, how many of those who take shortcuts with tokens are truly capable? Real masters are forged in blood!"
Luo Feng chimed in, "Fifth Brother is right. A comfortable environment cannot cultivate true powerhouses. The Spirit Realm Trials are a perfect opportunity to test our current strength and identify our shortcomings."
Han Li opened his mouth, wanting to say something more, but Shi Hao interrupted him at this moment: "Brother Han, I understand your concerns, but I agree with Brother Luo and Brother Lin's views. I don't want to rely on external forces to participate in that genius battle. I want to earn it through my own strength. I must go to the Spirit Realm Trial!"
Looking into Shi Hao's determined eyes, Han Li swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
He sighed and said with a wry smile, "Fine, fine, go if you want to go, I can't stop you. But I'll make this clear beforehand: if you encounter danger in the spirit world, don't fight head-on, survival comes first."
Lin Dong chuckled, "Don't worry, Third Brother, we know what we're doing!"
Qin Changsheng stood aside, listening to the conversation of the group of young people, his heart filled with doubt.
He didn't understand why these people would choose to go to the Spirit Realm for trials instead of using their perfectly good sect spots.
He had heard about the difficulty of those trials.
It's far more difficult than simply participating in the competition with a token of your trust.
"Fellow Daoist Zhu Chen, are you really not considering using the token of my Qin clan?"
Qin Changsheng looked at Zhu Chen again and couldn't help but ask, "With the strength of Shi Hao and the other young friends, they could easily achieve good results in the official competition by simply using the tokens of my Qin Clan. Why waste time and energy on the Spirit Realm Trial? Besides, as I just said, if you want to participate with your own sect's power, my Qin Clan can also help you..."
Zhu Chen said calmly, "I'm sorry to have made you laugh, Clan Chief Qin. None of my brothers like taking shortcuts, and neither do I..."
Upon hearing Zhu Chen's words, the other disciples of the Qin clan began to discuss among themselves:
"Are these people crazy? Why don't they take the shortcut and insist on going through the trials?"
"The difficulty of the Spirit Realm Trials is no joke; countless geniuses have perished in them."
"Exactly, wouldn't it be better to save your energy for the official matches or the Ancient Ruins? Why waste time and effort on that?"
"These people are just young and arrogant, they don't know their own limitations."
Zhu Chen listened to these people's discussions, but simply smiled and ignored them.
The finches know their ambitions!
He didn't need to explain anything!
Seeing Zhu Chen's determined gaze, Qin Changsheng didn't say anything more.
He had already realized that these people weren't unaware of the difficulty of the Spirit Realm Trials; rather, they simply didn't care.
What they want is not rankings or honors, but to prove themselves through battle and improve themselves through hardship.
"it is good."
Qin Changsheng nodded, a look of appreciation in his eyes: "Since you've made your decision, I won't try to dissuade you. I'll have someone compile the relevant information about the Spirit Realm Trials for your reference. If you need the Qin Clan's help, just let me know."
Zhu Chen clasped his hands in thanks and said, "Thank you, Clan Chief Qin."
Lin Dong rubbed his hands excitedly: "The Spirit Realm Trial, here I come! Those geniuses from the Upper Realm, get your necks clean and wait!"
Luo Feng shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Fifth Brother, can we keep a low profile? There are countless experts in the Spirit Realm Trial; we need to prepare ourselves first..."
A fighting spirit surged in Shi Hao's eyes: "No matter how strong the opponent is, I will not lose."
Although Qian Renxue and the others did not speak, their eyes also flashed with intense fighting spirit.
Han Li sighed silently, took out several array flags from his storage bag, and began to ponder how to set up an array to protect himself during the Spirit Realm Trial.
Feng Wu held Qing Yi's hand and whispered, "Qing Yi, shall we go too? I also want to see what the Spirit Realm Trials are like."
Qingyi hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.
She had heard several elders from the Heavenly Immortal Academy mention the Three Thousand Dao Continents Genius Competition before.
Both she and Feng Wu are core disciples of the Celestial Immortal Academy. As long as they obtain the academy's sect token, they can participate directly.
But seeing that Lin Dong and the others wanted to compete based on their own abilities, they suddenly changed their minds.
If Zhu Chen's brothers could do it, why couldn't they?
They can't afford to embarrass Tianxian Academy!
Seeing that everyone wanted to go to the Spirit Realm for the trial, Qin Hao immediately gave up his plan to directly participate in the competition using the Qin Clan's token.
He walked up to Shi Hao and said directly, "Brother, I want to go with you guys too..."
Shi Hao turned around and glanced at him, then patted him on the shoulder and said, "Alright, let's go together. It'll be a good opportunity for those cultivators from the upper realm to see that although our cultivation conditions as cultivators from the lower realm are harsh, we can still become the most dazzling presence in this battle of geniuses..."
