I Can Copy Everything Without Limit Chapter 35
Previously on I Can Copy Everything Without Limit...
Ten miles away from Looh City, a makeshift stage was erected, upon which the Chief Eunuch, in charge of the event, announced the competition's rewards. The declaration of the prizes caused the assembled crowd to exhale in astonishment.
Traditionally, the Hunting Competition bestowed generous rewards only upon the top ten finishers, which significantly spurred the fervent engagement of elite disciples. These rewards were immensely greater than their usual family provisions, often by a factor of several or even a hundred.
This year, the prizes unveiled far exceeded those of any prior competition. Mere tenth place would secure 100 Grade Ten Low Rank Spirit Stones and a single Grade Ten Low Rank Qi Increasing Pill. Ninth place was slated to receive 1,000 Grade Ten Low Rank Spirit Stones, one Grade Ten Low Rank Qi Increasing Pill, and a Ten-refinement Weapon.
An eighth-place victory would grant 2,000 Grade Ten Low Rank Spirit Stones, three Grade Ten Low Rank Qi Increasing Pills, one Grade Ten Low Rank Calming Heart Pill, and a Ten-refinement Weapon. Seventh place competitors could anticipate 5,000 Grade Ten Low Rank Spirit Stones, five Grade Ten Low Rank Qi Increasing Pills, two Grade Ten Low Rank Calming Heart Pills, and a Ten-refinement Weapon.
The sixth-place contender would be awarded 1,000 Grade Nine Low Rank Spirit Stones, two Middle Rank Grade Ten Qi Increasing Pills, one Middle Rank Grade Ten Calming Heart Pill, and a Ten-refinement Essence Weapon. Fifth place’s spoils included 2,000 Grade Nine Low Rank Spirit Stones, five Middle Rank Grade Ten Qi Increasing Pills, two Middle Rank Grade Ten Calming Heart Pills, and a Ten-refinement Essence Weapon.
A fourth-place finish guaranteed 5,000 Grade Nine Low Rank Spirit Stones, ten Middle Rank Grade Ten Qi Increasing Pills, three Middle Rank Grade Ten Calming Heart Pills, and a Ten-refinement Essence Weapon.
While the tenth-place reward mirrored that of past competitions, the prizes for positions fourth through ninth were so remarkable that a palpable wave of excitement swept through the onlookers. Competitors, with fists tightly clenched and eyes alight with ambition, seemed resolute in claiming their spots within the top nine.
For elite contestants such as Xie Jutong and Jiaang Que, who were widely expected to vie for the top three positions, their focus was on the even more substantial rewards that awaited their announcement.
As the Chief Eunuch proceeded to reveal the rewards for the victorious top three, a silence fell over the venue, so profound that the drop of a pin would have been clearly audible.
The prizes designated for the top three were so incredibly lavish as to be almost outside the realm of belief.
Third place would be honored with 1,000 Grade Eight Low Rank Spirit Stones, one High Rank Grade Ten Qi Increasing Pill, a High Rank Grade Ten Calming Heart Pill, a Ten-refinement Essence Weapon, a piece of Superior Armor, and a single day within the Hidden Dragon Pavilion.
Second place would be entitled to 2,000 Grade Eight Low Rank Spirit Stones, three High Rank Grade Ten Qi Increasing Pills, a High Rank Grade Ten Calming Heart Pill, a Ten-refinement Essence Weapon, a suit of fine armor, and two days in the Hidden Dragon Pavilion.
The reward for first place, the champion’s bounty, was even more astonishing.
Five thousand Grade Eight Low Rank Spirit Stones, five High Rank Grade Ten Qi Increasing Pills, three High Rank Grade Ten Calming Heart Pills, a Ten-refinement Top Grade weapon, armor of the highest quality, and three full days within the Hidden Dragon Pavilion.
Upon hearing the magnitude of the top three rewards, Wei Lulin could not suppress a sharp intake of breath, his eyes wide with disbelief.
Grade Eight Low Rank Spirit Stones, Advanced Grade Ten Qi Increasing Pills, Advanced Grade Ten Calming Heart Pills, Ten-refinement Top Grade weapons, and top-tier protective gear were treasures typically reserved for cultivators beyond the middle stages of the Body Refining Stage. Yet, here they were, offered as competition prizes.
Had the royal family and the three great families suddenly come into an immense fortune?
What further astonished Wei Lulin was the inclusion of training opportunities within the Hidden Dragon Pavilion.
The Hidden Dragon Pavilion, a cultivation Secret Realm exclusively for the royal family's use, was a miraculous artifact brought into existence by Qi Xinhao, the revered founding emperor of Yao Country.
This coveted Pavilion opened its gates only once every decade, admitting a mere three individuals at a time. The advantages conferred by the Pavilion were doubly significant.
The foremost benefit concerned cultivation advancement. Within the confines of the Hidden Dragon Pavilion, the Spiritual Qi density reached extraordinary levels. Regardless of whether a cultivator was at Qi Refining Stage Level One or Level Nine, an increase of at least one level in their cultivation was virtually guaranteed. With exceptional fortune and an extended stay, advancing by two levels was even conceivable. The lower a cultivator's initial stage, the more rapid and substantial their progress would be. Conversely, higher cultivation levels would result in a slower rate of advancement.
Another boon bestowed by the Hidden Dragon Pavilion was its remarkable ability to enhance potential. It wasn't merely imbued with dense Spiritual Qi; rather, it thrummed with a unique energy capable of fortifying one's physical constitution, reinforcing the meridians, expanding the Dantian, and purifying the very essence of one's Spiritual Force.
This Hidden Dragon Pavilion stood as the ultimate treasure of the royal family, a possession historically reserved exclusively for direct heirs. Its esteemed benefits were never extended to any other royal descendants, irrespective of their innate talent for Cultivation. The notion of granting entry to an outsider was utterly inconceivable.
However, the royal family's unexpected decision to offer a coveted spot within the Hidden Dragon Pavilion left everyone present in a state of utter bewilderment. Had the ruling family's might truly diminished to such an extent that they would relinquish such a priceless asset?
As uncertainties swirled, Wei Lulin's attention fixed upon the twenty royal participants. With Yao Yafeng almost certainly guaranteed a place, it was inferred that the royal family would not easily yield the remaining two spots. This suggested that within those twenty individuals, a minimum of three to five Peak Experts lay hidden.
This deduction brought to Wei Lulin's mind the disconcerting sensation of two royal presences he had sensed earlier, likely the formidable secret weapons of the royal clan.
Initially, Wei Lulin had intended to circumvent formidable adversaries like Xie Jutong and Jiaang Que, both of whom had attained the seventh level of Qi Refining, during the nascent stages of the hunt. His current level of Cultivation was simply inadequate to contend with these Peak Experts. Nevertheless, he felt that once he successfully broke through to the pinnacle of the Fourth Level of Qi Refining, he might possess the capability to confront them. Even if outright victory was unlikely, he reasoned he could at least hold his own.
Advancing his Cultivation further and ultimately eclipsing them was, of course, not beyond the realm of possibility.
Following the departure of the Chief Eunuch, the patriarchs from the three prominent families ascended the stage, delivering addresses laden with commendations and encouragement. Wei Lulin, however, remained detached from their words, choosing instead to focus inwardly, meticulously calibrating his spirit to ensure he was in the most optimal condition.
Upon the final pronouncements from the patriarchs, the Hunting Competition was officially declared underway.
The designated Hunting Ground lay approximately twenty miles distant from the elevated platform, signifying the true commencement of the competition.
Scattered throughout the expansive Hunting Ground were one hundred unique Jade Plates. Some were concealed along frequented pathways, others precariously perched within the dense foliage of trees, and a select few were even discovered placed beside formidable Magical Beasts.
Reaching the Hunting Ground ahead of others offered the distinct advantage of discovering the Jade Plates sooner. Consequently, the moment the competition was announced as open, the eager disciples of the Wei family surged forward with utmost haste.
Wei Lulin neither rushed to take the lead nor deliberately lagged behind. He calmly followed in the wake of his fellow Wei family disciples, progressing towards the Hunting Ground at a measured and consistent pace.
The duration allotted for the Hunting Competition was a span of fifteen days.
Throughout this period, all participants were mandated to remain within the confines of the Hunting Ground. Any premature departure was strictly prohibited and would result in the forfeiture of the competition, constituting an automatic concession.
Merely being the first to arrive offered no guarantee of ultimate triumph; only those possessing genuine strength and refined skills would ultimately be crowned victorious.
Wei Lulin maintained a demeanor of unwavering composure. Similarly, the assembled members of the three major families, the royal contingent, and a number of other influential families hailing from Looh City approached the Hunting Ground without any discernible haste.
The journey spanning twenty miles was of a moderate distance.
The assembled contestants exhibited a diverse spectrum of Cultivation abilities, ranging from those at the third level of Qi Refining, the least skilled, to those at the peak of the seventh level of Qi Refining, the most powerful, ensuring a collectively rapid advance towards their destination.
After a period of three hours, Wei Lulin, alongside his peers from the Wei family, finally arrived at the perimeter of the Hunting Ground.
