More and more participants gathered on the high platform.
Among them, there were many strong warriors. Qin Shi was watching from below the platform. There were almost one hundred peak Incantation Realm warriors. He couldn't help but compliment, "The eight zones are worthy of their reputation."
Nearly a hundred Curse Puppet realms, perhaps only the Talisman Demon Competition held by the eight regions could attract so many powerhouses, right?
"Next, the Sword Faction!"
The participants from the other seven regions had already gathered on the stage. Yuan Hao stared coldly at Qin Shi as a cold glint flashed across his aged eyes.
"Kid, it's your turn." Feng Sha patted Qin Shi. He had high hopes for him.
Qin Shi took a deep breath. He wrapped his black cloak tightly around his body, stood up, and jumped on the high platform.
The moment Qin Shi stepped on the high platform, the crowd couldn't help but clamor.
"It's him?"
The other seven zones were surprised. Desolate Area Master Kong Gui was a little surprised. "Haha, I didn't expect this kid to be the Sword Faction's special move."
Jing Cai stroked his beard and smiled. "This kid isn't simple. It's only been two years, but he's completely different from when I first met him. If he has a few more years to grow, his future will be limitless."
"I made the wrong move." Kong Gui's eyes flashed.
"Master, are you saying that I should have protected him in the Chaos Lands?
That I should have used my identity as a disciple of Desolate to recruit him? "
Kong Gui nodded. "If that's the case, he should be a disciple of Desolate now. The champion of the God Area Sacrifice should be ours."
"I misjudged him."
Kong Gui shook his head. "You can't be blamed. Who could have thought that a kid who was only at the Four Sky Realm could become so powerful in just two years? I believe the Sword Faction was gambling, but they won. Two years ago, many people laughed at the Sword Faction. They thought it was stupid to offend the Chaos Lands. They didn't know how wise the Sword Faction was."
Listening to Kong Gui's analysis, Jing Cai couldn't help but smile.
"He is Qin Shi?" The disciples of Chaos Lands were even more excited.
"It's him?
Isn't he a traitor of the Realm of Chaos? "
"En, but don't underestimate him. Right now, he's the most popular person in the eight regions. The champion of the God Realm Ritual is him."
"What?
Is he that powerful? "Many disciples exclaimed.
Among them, there was no lack of Elders who had come two years ago. When they saw Qin Shi's current glory, they all sighed. "In just two years, this kid has actually become so powerful."
"Yeah, it was our misfortune to have lost him."
"I hope he won't do anything that will damage our reputation. We've paid a huge price to invite Daoist Ghost Shadow to participate in the competition. We can't afford to lose the championship of this year's Talisman Demon Competition."
The eight regions gathered, each with their own ulterior motives.
Since the Sword Faction had only sent Qin Shi to participate in the competition, when Qin Shi stood firm, all the disciples from the eight regions went on the stage. Yuan Hao was the host, standing on the high platform with his hands clasped behind his back.
He looked at Qin Shi coldly. Although the commotion caused by Qin Shi was still going on, he had a strange smile on his face. "Kid, I'll let you enjoy the show for a while. The anniversary of your death is coming soon."
Qin Shi stood there and looked around. Most of them were old fellows who were over a hundred years old, which made him feel extremely pressured.
However, all of a sudden, his eyes widened. From the Wind Region, he saw a familiar, beautiful figure. He was surprised. "It's her?
She's also a participant in the Talisman Demon Competition? "
That beautiful figure was the first disciple of the same age as him to participate in the Talisman Demon Competition. That beautiful figure seemed to feel Qin Shi's gaze. Her beautiful eyes turned around and happened to meet Qin Shi's.
Qin Shi revealed a gentle smile as they looked at each other.
However, while he was polite, the other party was not. Her originally gentle and beautiful eyes flashed with coldness.

"Kid, you'd better not provoke that kid from the Wind Region."
Suddenly, an old voice sounded beside him. He was slightly stunned and curiously turned around. It was a white-bearded old man wearing a purgatory robe.
"Senior, you are?" Qin Shi thought for a moment, but he had no impression of this old man.
The old man stroked his beard and chuckled, "Haha, don't think about it, we don't know each other, I was just trying to persuade you. The Wind Region has always been the region with the strongest Symbol Devil power among the eight regions, and the kid who threatened you just now is called Cheng Xu, a rare genius in the Wind Region. He was born with an extraordinary soul body, and it is said that he is now half a step into the Curse Domain realm. At such a young age, in less than a hundred years, to be able to reach this level of cultivation, I'm afraid he is second only to Ghost Shadow."
"Half a step into the Curse Domain realm?" This level was indeed beyond Qin Shi's imagination. He couldn't help but take another look at the young man.
However, he immediately retracted his gaze and looked curiously at the old man. In this Symbol Devil Competition, everyone was blinded by greed. If they didn't know each other before, it would be hard for him to understand why this old man would be so kind.
"Haha, although we don't know each other, we have a familiar person." The old man seemed to have seen through Qin Shi's doubts and smiled.
"A familiar person?
Who is it? "
"Zi Lingsha, you should be familiar with her, right?
If you count it, she could be considered as half a disciple of mine. I was the one who brought her into the purgatory. "The old man lightly said.
"Zi Lingsha?"
Qin Shi came to a sudden realization and said with a much more respectful expression, "So you're Zi Lingsha's teacher. My apologies for not recognizing you."
"Alright, you don't have to be so courteous with me. Before participating in this Symbol Devil Competition, that little girl specially came to look for me. She said that if it was possible, she hoped that I could lend you a hand. The Snow Rhododendron that you wanted should be for her, right?" The old man waved his hand.
Since this old man knew about the Snow Rhododendron, he should be clear about Zi Lingsha's current condition. Qin Shi nodded, "Yes, I owe her."
The old man nodded in satisfaction.
Perhaps it was because of Zi Lingsha, but Qin Shi felt inexplicably close to this old man. In the process of waiting for the Symbol Devil Competition to start, he chatted a lot with the old man. This old man's name was Huo Dao, and he was participating in this competition for the Snow Rhododendron.
Although there was a huge gap between the two of them, they seemed to be good friends despite the difference in age.
As the two of them chatted, time passed slowly. In the blink of an eye, it was already noon. Yuan Hao walked in front of the crowd again. He looked up at the time and said coolly, "It's noon. The auspicious time has arrived. Now, I announce the official start of the Symbol Devil Competition of the Eight Zones!"
"Wow!"
The crowd cheered and applauded.
When the applause gradually died down, Yuan Hao waved his hand, and a golden dragon danced in the sky. It looked very holy, and the crowd fell into silence once again.
When the golden dragon circled around and finally lifted the high platform, the dragon's tail and head connected with each other, forming a circle around the high platform. A colorful barrier covered the sky.
After the barrier was formed, Yuan Hao smiled faintly, "Next, we will proceed to the first event of the Symbol Devil Competition — Soul Duel!"
"As we all know, Symbol Devil Masters are the most noble profession in the human world and even in the Barren Continent. They can connect their souls with beasts and refine demonic talismans with the power of beasts to enhance their combat ability."
"However, no matter how strong the demonic talisman a Symbol Devil Master can refine, it is inseparable from the cultivation of his soul. Therefore, the cultivation of the soul has become the foundation of Symbol Devil Masters. Therefore, the so-called Symbol Devil Competition is naturally inseparable from the battle of souls. This Soul Duel is a battle of souls."
"The first round of the soul battle. The rules are as follows: Participants from the eight regions will sacrifice their own souls together and engage in a chaotic battle using their soul force. The chaotic battle will continue until a hundred Symbol Magicians are selected. The hundred winners will have the qualifications to enter the second round, and the losers will be eliminated."
Yuan Hao introduced in a loud voice.
Some of the older Symbol Devil Masters were used to hearing the rules. Most of them had participated in the Symbol Devil Competition several times, or even dozens of times.
Qin Shi was not surprised. Feng Sha had already introduced the order of the competition to him, but he did not expect the so-called Soul Duel to be so simple and violent.
Of course, he liked this method.
Direct and decisive.
After everyone was familiar with the rules, Yuan Hao said calmly, "Since everyone is familiar with the rules, with the Golden Dragon Soul Sealing Formation as the foundation, contestants, please offer your souls. The first Soul Duel begins now!"
Yuan Hao shouted. The whole place was in an uproar.
Hundreds of participants from the eight regions rubbed their palms together. Some of the younger participants released their souls. Wisps of primordial divinities the size of a palm flew out from the center of their brows and entered the Golden Dragon Soul Sealing Formation through the head of the formation.
"Kid, let's go in too." Huo Dao smiled at Qin Shi.
"Alright!"
Qin Shi nodded his head. Shortly after, he opened his palm, and an extremely cute Psychokinesis Body jumped out from his palm. It followed the dragon's head and entered the Spirit Formation.
The Golden Dragon Soul Sealing Formation had the effect of blocking the power of souls. When all the contestants' souls entered it, a golden barrier enveloped the high platform.
Thus, the first Soul Duel officially began.
