Chaotic Sword God

Chapter 2292: World of Moon and Star

“What? The last protector will actually be a Radiant Saint Master with a measly one-colored soulcore…”

“How can that be possible? Chang Yang only has a one-colored soulcore. How can he bear such a great burden with his puny cultivation…”

“Unbelievable. A disciple with a one-colored soulcore will actually become the protector of a candidate with a four-colored soulcore. Who is going to be protecting who…”

“This is unprecedented. This is truly unprecedented. Protectors and retainers have always been Radiant Godkings throughout history. This is the first time someone with a one-colored soulcore has been chosen to bear this burden…”

Elder Mu Zhong’s announcement immediately caused an uproar among the Radiant Godkings present. The outcome left them all stunned.

“The vice-leader must have intervened. It looks like Chang Yang’s relationship with the vice-leader is nowhere near as simple as it seems…”

“There’s nothing we can do. Who let Chang Yang be supported by a vice-leader, and vice-leader Xuan Zhan out of them…”

“Although the retainers of Chosen Saints throughout history have all been Radiant Godkings, there has never been a clear rule that only Radiant Godkings can become the Chosen Saint’s retainer or the candidate’s protector. As a result, no rules have been broken by choosing a weaker disciple as a protector…”

…

The Radiant Godkings communicated with one another secretly, engaging in an intense discussion. Currently, the huge square was silent, where even a dropped pin could be heard. However, the Radiant Godkings present were basically making a ruckus secretly. Their gazes towards Jian Chen were extremely mixed, containing jealousy and envy.

The authoritative elders on the stage fell silent as well. They looked at Jian Chen with extremely mixed feelings. Naturally, they realised that elder Mu Zhong changing his decision towards the end was due to orders from above.

Even though all of them disliked this outcome, including elder Mu Zhong, none of them dared to object. They did not dare to show even a hint of displeasure.

This was because they all understood that elder Mu Zhong likely received the order from vice-leader Xuan Zhan. Let alone the elders, but even the seven other vice-leaders had to show some respect towards vice-leader Xuan Zhan’s decisions.

“Vice-leader Xuan Zhan treats Jian Chen with far greater importance than I imagined. Yanxue, this is an opportunity for you. If you’re able to establish a connection with vice-leader Xuan Zhan through Chang Yang, you will receive immeasurable benefits in the future,” Mu Shui told Donglin Yanxue secretly. She no longer dared to underestimate Chang Yang.

Donglin Yanxue stood on the stage as she looked at Chang Yang standing among the crowd. She experienced mixed feelings as she remained silent.

“How did this happen…” To another side of the crowd, Gongzheng Xin became completely dumbstruck

This result also left Bai Yu dumbfounded. Her mouth hung open as disbelief covered her face.

“I hereby announce that the competition for Chosen Saint formally begins. Candidates and protectors, enter the stage immediately,” at this moment, elder Mu Zhong’s voice rang out once again.

With that, the four other candidates and the several dozen protectors immediately flew onto the stage.

“Junior sister, I’ll be leaving first,” Jian Chen said to Bai Yu before using Radiant Saint Force to make his way onto the stage under the envious gazes of all the Radiant Godkings.

Very soon, over forty protectors stood in five groups behind their respective candidates.

However, perhaps coincidentally, their gazes would always sweep past Jian Chen.

Aside from the five candidates, everyone else on the stage was either a Radiant Godking or an elder. Jian Chen truly stood out by standing there with his measly one-colored soulcore.

Elder Mu Zhong stared at everyone with shining eyes and said, “Next, all of you will be sent into a miniature world. There are various vicious beasts in the miniature world. The strongest of them are only mid Godkings. Your mission as protectors is to keep your candidate safe in there.”

Afterwards, elder Mu Zhong looked at the five candidates and said, “As for your mission as candidates, you must find Radiant Origin Pearls in the miniature world. Radiant Origin Pearls are extremely special, a natural occurrence from the Tower of Radiance. As a result, they cannot be found with the senses of the soul. Only those with great talent and great affinity for Radiant Saint Force can sense them within a certain distance.”

“This round is extremely important to you all. The two who find the most Radiant Origin Pearls will face each other in battle. The remaining three will be eliminated…”

“Remember, this round is limited to a year. During this time, the five of you are forbidden from engaging in life-threatening battles, or your status as candidate will be revoked…” Elder Mu Zhong became solemn towards the end.

Afterwards, elder Mu Zhong took out an ancient seal. As soon as the ancient seal appeared, it radiated with a powerful pulse of energy and the power of space. It interfered with the operation of space in the region.

Elder Mu Zhong waved the ancient seal towards the sky. Immediately, the space above the stage pulsed violently. A huge spatial gate gradually opened.

“This miniature world is called the World of Moon and Star. In order to prevent the appearance of vicious beasts that are too powerful, elder He Tian will be going along with you…”

“Now, all competitors enter the World of Moon and Star immediately…”

With that, the five candidates and the forty-five protectors mobilized their Radiant Saint Force. The protectors rose up behind their candidate and charged towards the spatial gate.

When Jian Chen stepped into the World of Moon and Star, he discovered that everyone who had entered with him now stood on a mountain.

The mountain seemed to have been severed by someone, so it had a small, flat top.

Jian Chen closed his eyes and clearly sensed that the laws of the world here were incomplete. Compared to the Saints’ World, this entire world was at a much lower level.

“The space here is just too fragile. If I use my full strength, I can easily rip through it. Infinite Prime is the probably limit of what the World of Moon and Star can endure. If Chaotic Primes set foot here, they can easily collapse this place,” Jian Chen sensed the situation of this miniature world quietly.
