The Centennial Tournament was around the corner and the Five Great Kings had already selected their participants.
King Wu and King Zhan had the same opinion. The three participants they selected were all from the younger generation. Although their cultivation wasn't strong, their potential was heaven-defying.
They were experts who had the potential to become Ancient Gods in the future.
Other than that, the three Great Kings, led by King Qing, chose some Honorables. Some of them were even top Honorables.
This was what King Zhan had told Fang Chen and the other two. Their opponents weren't just Mysterious True Realm martial artists, but also Mysterious God Realm Honorables. He told them to be prepared.
After cultivating for a hundred years, Fang Chen and the other two's cultivation had reached a bottleneck. It would be very difficult for them to improve.
At this time, the three of them chose to gather their strength in every corner of the Warlord Continent.
After killing the Mysterious God Realm Honorable Beast for the first time, the three of them had been traveling everywhere. However, they hadn't encountered any Honorables.
After all, there weren't many Honorables in the Blackstone Prison.
Moreover, many human Honorables didn't provoke them at all.
The three of them couldn't casually attack others.
They hadn't encountered any Mysterious God Realm Honorables, but they had encountered many Mysterious True Realm martial artists.
Under the three's joint attack, the Mysterious True Realm martial artists couldn't resist at all.
If God blocked them, they would kill God. If Buddha blocked them, they would kill Buddha.
In the past year, wherever they went, people would tremble in fear.
Right now, their legacies were being spread all over the Warlord Continent.
The Mystic Light Trio, this was the name that many cultivators had given to them.
In just a year, the Mysterious Light Trio had become famous in the Warlord Continent. They weren't any weaker than some Mysterious God Realm Honorables.
King Zhan saw all of this and was very happy. He believed that he had made the right choice.
In the quiet Blackstone Prison, there was an undercurrent.
As the day of the tournament approached, every martial artist felt a trace of pressure.
The Five Great Kings paid close attention to the changes in the Blackstone Prison. At the same time, they were also waiting for the tournament to arrive.
Finally, under the anticipation of everyone, the grand competition arrived.
The location of the tournament was in King Wu's territory.
King Wu's Palace, the core of the Warlord Continent. It was also the largest area.
This place was very prosperous and could be considered the core area of Blackstone Prison.
Although the Five Great Kings were equally famous, in the eyes of outsiders, the five of them were equally powerful.
However, only the other four Great Kings knew that the Martial King's strength surpassed theirs.
Under the premise that they were at the same level, none of them were a match for the Martial King in a one-on-one battle.
But King Wu kept a low profile and never talked about these things.
The other four Martial Kings were convinced that the Martial Imperial Palace had organized this competition.
On this day, the Warlord led Fang Chen's group, as well as his only disciple, Star and Moon, to the Martial Royal City.
"Is this the Martial Imperial City?"
Fang Chen and the other two exclaimed when they saw the bustling city in the distance.
It was said that the Blackstone Prison's environment was terrible and there were almost no buildings.
But now, it seemed that it wasn't that they didn't have the building, but that they didn't have the ability to do so.
Apart from the Five Great Kings, the others could not even obtain cultivation resources, let alone construct buildings.
"How glorious." Even Star and Moon was a little surprised.
"Let's go, they should all be here."
The Warlord's face was calm as he took a step forward and arrived in front of the Martial Imperial City in an instant.
Fang Chen's heart trembled when he saw this. He muttered in his heart, "This should be the legendary Ruler of Heaven and Earth, right?"
As soon as they entered the Martial Imperial City, they could feel the martial aura that assaulted their nostrils.
"Looks like this Martial King is not simple."
Just by the violent martial aura in the Martial Imperial City, they could tell that the Martial Imperial City was not simple.
"Warlord."
Not far away, a man in green appeared and called out when he saw the Warlord.
He did not purposely emit any aura, but it gave Fang Chen and the others a sense of oppression.
"King Qing."
The Warlord nodded and looked behind King Qing. As expected, the people he brought were all Profound God Realm Sovereigns.
"That Profound Star Realm martial artist should be King Qing's disciple, right?" Fang Chen thought.
Other than King Qing's disciple, there were three other old men with sharp auras. They were obviously Profound God Realm Sovereigns.
"Warlord, you will regret this."
King Qing and the Warlord exchanged a few words, then looked at Fang Chen and the others and said coldly.
Hearing this, the Warlord grinned and ignored King Qing. He turned around and walked toward the Martial Imperial Palace.
The Martial Imperial Palace was located in the center of the Martial Imperial City.
In front of the Martial Imperial Palace, there was a huge square. Countless cultivators crowded around the square, leaving no gaps for them to leak out.
"There are so many people."
Fang Chen and the others heard the cheers.
They saw the excited faces of the martial artists.
It seemed like the Centennial Competition was much grander than they had imagined.
"Warlord, King Qing."
King Wu appeared on the main stage and called out to the Warlord and King Qing.
Fang Chen raised his head and was surprised to find two old men sitting beside King Wu.
"The Five Kings."
When King Qing and King Zhan arrived on the main stage, the martial artists below exclaimed. The Five Kings had finally gathered.
The last time they appeared in front of everyone was ten thousand years ago.
Every action of the Five Kings would cause a heated discussion among the martial artists below.
"King Wu, you'll be the host."
The other four Kings recommended King Wu to be the host of the competition.
King Wu nodded and stood up. He looked around and waved his hand for everyone to be quiet.
Instantly, the noisy square quieted down.
"Everyone, the Centennial Competition is a competition that will change the structure of the Blackstone Prison. It's very important," King Wu said slowly.
Fang Chen's black eyes swept across the Five Kings. He was shocked.
"As expected of the Five Kings. When will we be able to reach their level?"
Barbarian said enviously.
"Are you kidding? You won't be able to reach their level in your lifetime," Qing Hou said.
In just a short while, King Wu on the main stage finished explaining the rules of the competition.
"For this competition, there will be three martial practitioners from each region participating. There will be a total of fifteen participants from each region. There are Mystic Light Realm and Mystic God Realm martial practitioners among them. For the sake of fairness, the competition will be held in the One-Line Sky."
King Wu said.
Instantly, the crowd below exclaimed.
"The competition will be held in the One-Line Sky?
Are they crazy? "
"Maybe the Five Kings want to see how strong their potential is."
"The One-Line Sky is the most dangerous place in the Blackstone Prison. It's also the place where Origin Energy is the most scarce."
"What are the Five Kings planning to do by holding the competition in the One-Line Sky?"
For a moment, everyone started discussing the One-Line Sky crazily.
"Everyone will have a token specially made by the Five Kings. It will last for a hundred years. The team that gets the most tokens will be the biggest winner," King Wu said.
Just as everyone was discussing, King Wu said something that made everyone's jaws drop.
"This competition is very important. The four regions that lose will unconditionally cede half of their territory to the final winner," King Wu said. "This is the result of the discussion between the Five Kings."
Hearing this, Fang Chen and the others' expressions changed.
He narrowed his eyes and pondered.
"What do the Five Kings mean by doing this?"
Fang Chen frowned. The words that King Zhan once said to him were still echoing in his ears.
In this competition, it was very likely that they would have the opportunity to leave the Blackstone Prison.
Could it be that the winner would be able to get the help of the other four regions and leave the Blackstone Prison?
But that didn't make sense. Why?
For a moment, Fang Chen's mind was in a mess.
King Wu waved his hand and the square quieted down again.
"Alright, I've said what I need to say. As for the specifics, it'll depend on your luck."
After he finished speaking, King Wu waved his hand. Immediately, the fifteen people participating in the competition shot out.
That was because the legendary One-Line Sky was thousands of miles away from King Wu City.
After seeing the fifteen participants enter the One-Line Sky one after another, the Five Kings acted together and completely sealed off the One-Line Sky.
Finally, the five of them stood in the void and looked at each other with a grin.
"We'll meet again a hundred years later."
With that, the Five Kings left the One-Line Sky.
Before King Zhan left, his eyes flickered as he glanced at the scene in the One-Line Sky.
All the warriors in the Blackstone Prison were paying attention to this hundred-year competition.
Because this competition was related to the future of the Blackstone Prison.
