Everyone’s attention was drawn to these two men who had abruptly started to fight .

“You two, what are you doing?”
A cold voice echoed through the area . A figure appeared and hovered between the two Drill Grounds .
The new arrival was a burly middle-aged man who was filled with Killing Intent and emitted a terrifying aura . His appearance drew shock from the warriors, including the white-robed man and the well-groomed man who had been fighting .
This man directed his aura towards them, making it hard for them to catch their breath, as though they were pinned down by a huge mountain .
“My Lord, he started the fight . I have to defend myself, right?” the well-groomed man responded .
The middle-aged man noticed the white-robed man’s belligerent expression and instantly realized what had happened .
“During the Firmament Territory Feast, everyone is banned from fighting, except in certain places . You, since you flouted that rule, you will be disqualified from taking part in the feast . Get out of here!”
As the man’s words faded, an immaterial power assaulted the white-robed man . He did not even have a chance to defend himself and was instantly thrown out of the Drill Ground .

“Ouyang Xuan, I can’t accept it, I can’t!”
Everyone at the Drill Grounds could hear his howls clearly . Eventually, those sounds faded and finally died out .
“Listen, the Firmament Territory Feast is held by numerous Sects in the Firmament Territory . It is a grand feast with strict rules . Just now, I administered the minimum punishment . But from now on, whoever breaks the rules will be killed without mercy!” The middle-aged man’s voice echoed coldly .
The geniuses and warriors in the Skyscraping Realm level were shocked by this threat and naturally did not intend to violate the rules .
The middle-aged man swept his gaze over the gathered crowd and continued, “The feast is held every 3,000 years and is the grandest genius feast in the Firmament Territory . I know all of you come from different places . Some hail from the Eternal World but more of you are from the Ancient World . However, during the feast, everyone is equal . We will only focus on your talent and strength . As long as your talent and strength are good enough, you will have a chance to join the tops Sects here . ”
“So the key point is that we will only judge you by your talent and strength . ”
Hearing this, the geniuses and warriors clasped their hands together in anticipation .
“There are four rounds in the Firmament Territory Feast . After each round, most of you will have been eliminated . The stronger are, the higher your chances of joining a Sect . ”

“The first round of the genius battle will begin in an hour . You should prepare for it now . ”
After his announcement, the middle-aged man closed his eyes and ignored the geniuses on the Drill Ground .
The crowd stirred .
“Four rounds of the genius battle! What will they be like?”
Many warriors were curious .
“Although I’m not sure what the genius battle is like, an elder from the Ancient World said that the first round is very important . It’d be good if we could pass that round . The big Sects might not be interested in us, but we could hope to become outer disciples in some small Sects,” a purple-haired elder said .
“Outer disciples?”
“So, you mean we can only be outer disciples in small Sects if we pass the first round?”

Many in the crowd frowned .
Being an outer disciple just didn’t compare with being an inner disciple, especially if one belonged to a small Sect .
The geniuses and warriors gathered here for the Firmament Territory Feast wanted to join the top Sects . Joining a stronger Sect would mean access to more cultivation resources, and more room to cultivate and improve .
Being only an outer disciple in a small Sect would not satisfy most of the warriors .
“Hum, it’s already an impressive achievement to become an outer disciple in a small Sect . The elder mentioned that most people from the Ancient World did not even manage to join a small Sect . Instead, they wandered in the Firmament Territory when the feast was over . It’s very dangerous here and it’ll be hard to survive if you don’t have the protection of a Sect,” the purple-haired elder said and sneered .
Those who lacked confidence in their strength reacted visibly to this revelation .
They knew that the purple-haired elder was right .
They had just arrived here and were unfamiliar with the Eternal World . They were also not strong enough . Without the protection from a Sect, they would barely survive here .
“Anyway, we need to pass the first round at the very least!”
“I’m not holding out hope for the other rounds, but I have to pass the first one!”
“At a minimum, I’ll have to pass the first round . Then I can try my best to pass as many of the subsequent rounds . ”
The warriors from the Ancient World stood with their hands clasped together as they made their resolutions for the feast .
Soon, one hour passed . The middle-aged man hovering in the Void opened his eyes and waved his hand . A huge wormhole appeared at the Perimeter of each Drill Ground .
“The battlefield of the first round is inside the wormhole,” the man bellowed . “For the first round, we will separate the Ancient World and the Eternal World . So there are two battlefields in two wormholes . One is for the Ancient World and the other is for the Eternal World . These two battlefields won’t have any connection . ”
The warriors from the Ancient World camp were relieved on hearing that .
“So in the first round, we are not going to fight with the geniuses from the Eternal World . ”
“These geniuses from the Eternal World have more cultivation resources and they should be much stronger than us . Luckily, we are not going to fight them just yet . ”
“In this case, I think I stand a good chance to pass the first round . ”
