Fantasy: After transmigrating, I effortlessly became a god.

The exercise of privileges must not be obstructed.

Zheng Qian devoted himself to studying the birth chart given by Dean Yun, and he discovered something amazing.

When he picked up the paper, he saw eight characters with spatial attributes; without the paper, he saw eight large characters with sharp strokes and a sense of inclusiveness, along with a seal.

"It's truly amazing," Zheng Qian murmured, sitting there with the papers in his hand for an entire day.

Late at night, Li Mubai unexpectedly came to find Zheng Qian carrying a wooden box.

"All the major delegations have arrived, and the experts participating in the Gathering of Heroes are also arriving one after another. Guangxiang City has been quite lively these past few days. When do you have time, I'll take you around to see the sights and experience the charm of Guangxiang City."

Li Mubai, beaming with joy, continued, "You know what? I asked Tian Jie out for dinner this afternoon, following your instructions. She refused, so I forcefully grabbed her hand and dragged her away. She didn't even refuse me! It was so satisfying."

With a slight smile, Zheng Qian said, "Love is indeed beautiful, but don't forget the Gathering of Heroes. The written test will begin in five days, followed by the martial test. You are second on the academy's combat power ranking, so you need to work hard to achieve a good result."

"Absolutely. How are your preparations going?"

"Be ready at any time, respond to any battle, and win every battle."

"With your combat prowess, you have a good chance of getting into the top ten in the martial arts exam. I wonder how you'll do in the academic exam?"

"The written test? I don't care about the written test, I'll just take the martial arts test."

Li Mubai suddenly realized and stared at Zheng Qian, asking, "You want to get first place and compete for a spot in the Twin Absolute Domain?"

After these few days of learning, Zheng Qian is no longer the novice he once was, and naturally knows that the trial Ya Lan mentioned was entering the Dual Absolute Domain.

The full name of the Twin Absolute Domains is the Thunder Devouring Twin Absolute Domains. It is the remnant of the earth-shattering battle fought between the Thunder Clan Ancestor and the Void Devouring Beast in ancient times for the supreme godhood.

The passage of 50,000 years has not silenced this battlefield; instead, it has given birth to a strange energy field, transforming it into a sacred place for trial seekers and a place where nightmares coexist.

The greatest benefit of entering the Twin Absolute Domain is that one can use the energy field within to reshape one's bones. Those with the right affinity can even comprehend the laws of lightning and space. It is a famous energy field in the Southern Region.

The requirement to enter the Trial Grounds is the Dragon Shaping Realm. Those above the Dragon Shaping Realm are excluded due to the dual abyss's rejection, while those below the Dragon Shaping Realm lack sufficient combat power and will not be able to obtain any opportunities even if they do enter.

Therefore, all those who enter the Twin Absolute Domains are young geniuses at the Dragon Shaping Realm.

"That's right, my goal is to win first place in the Heroes' Martial Arts Tournament and enter the Dual Absolute Domain."

Zheng Qian readily admitted that he felt there was nothing to hide about his thoughts.

After a long silence, Li Mubai slowly said, "If you want to enter the Twin Absolute Domains, there is only one way."

"What method? To get first place?" Zheng Qian was puzzled. He had already said he wanted to get first place, why did he have to emphasize it several times?

"No, you can't possibly get first place."

Li Mubai's words puzzled Zheng Qian, who asked in confusion, "Could it be that there is a reclusive genius who has been pre-selected as the number one?"

Li Mubai shook his head, his mood somewhat heavy, and slowly said.

"The rules for the Heroes' Martial Arts Tournament were finalized six months ago. Apart from the elite lists provided by each country, everyone else has to start from the group elimination rounds. The geniuses on the elite lists can directly enter the top 200 until the top 32 are determined."

"The rule change this year is that the elimination round of the top 32 has been changed to a free-for-all of the top 32, and the last person standing on the stage is the winner."

A chaotic battle?

What are these rules?

Or rather, this rule is designed for powerful forces.

The top 32 are in a free-for-all. If people who know each other enter at the same time, they can team up to take down the people they don't know first, and then fight for the first place.

It's no exaggeration to say that under this rule, the top spot will always belong to powerful nations like Guangxiang or Moxie. Unless the elites of smaller countries can take on ten or even twenty opponents at once, they won't be able to make it into the top ten.

The pool of heroes is a test of strength, its depths unfathomable, even deeper than the waters of team battles.

Zheng Qian remained silent for a long time before asking, "You said there's only one way to enter the Twin Absolute Domains, what is that way?"

Li Mubai stared intently at Zheng Qian and said seriously, "Dean Yun recommends you."

"Why is this?"

Li Mubai's eyes revealed admiration: "Because Dean Yun is one of the strongest forces in Guangxiang Kingdom, perhaps even the strongest force."

"Isn't the entire Guangxiang Kingdom under the emperor's rule? What other forces could possibly rival it?" Zheng Qian frowned. This gathering of heroes wasn't about individual combat strength, but about the strength of the forces behind them.

"Guangxiang Kingdom has six major powers. First is the royal family. Second is General Fan Lang, the head of the military, who is also Fan Tiexue's father. Third is Scholar Mo Yuan, the head of the civil officials, who is in charge of the literary examination at this Heroes' Gathering and is also Teacher Mo Li's father. Fourth is the Demon Radiance Sect, whose largest branch in Guangxiang Kingdom assumes the role of guardian, led by the young sect master Ye Tianjue. Fifth is Feng Feiyang, the city lord of Wind City, who is Feng Wuhen's father. And sixth is Dean Yun, who represents the academy. He is not from Guangxiang Kingdom, and no one knows his strength or his purpose in coming to Guangxiang Kingdom; all that is known is that he is very strong."

"Guangxiang Kingdom has fifteen slots for participating in the Dual Absolute Domain Trials. The first place in the Dragon Shaping Realm is a designated participant, and the remaining fourteen slots are determined by the top fifteen people who enter the Gathering of Heroes. For example, if ten people enter from Guangxiang Kingdom, then Guangxiang Kingdom has ten slots, and if three people enter from Demon Scorpion Kingdom, then Demon Scorpion Kingdom has three slots."

"These spots are decided by the higher-ups to send someone to participate in the trial, not by whoever makes it into the top fifteen. According to past practice, if Guangxiang Kingdom has more than six spots, then the major powers can nominate one person."

"So if you want to participate in the Dual Absolute Domain Trial, the path of first place is completely blocked. Only if Dean Yun recommends you will you have any hope. Do you understand?"

Damn, that's really too dark.

The rules of the Gathering of Heroes directly cut off the opportunity for lone wolves to participate in the Dual Realms Trial, as well as the opportunity for small countries to participate in the trial, with all the slots being monopolized by the major nations.

Zheng Qian asked curiously, "Under these rules, are you able to participate in the trial?"

Li Mubai said self-deprecatingly, "I can't participate. If I'm lucky, I'll be satisfied if I can make it into the top thirty-two. If I'm unlucky, I won't even make it into the top one hundred, let alone the top thirty-two."

Li Mubai, ranked second on the academy's combat power list, actually said that he was unlucky and couldn't even get into the top 100. It seems that this gathering of heroes is truly dark.

With Zheng Qian's intelligence, he certainly knew that Li Mubai's talk of bad luck wasn't really bad luck.

The Kingdom of Guangxiang held a gathering of heroes. Although on the surface it was a fair lottery to select opponents, the Crown Prince could secretly arrange opponents for each genius.

This morning, Li Mubai stood behind Zheng Qian without hesitation, confronting Qin Lieyan, who was trying to curry favor with the Crown Prince. This could be considered a form of taking sides.

In retrospect, Zheng Qian harmed Li Mubai.

Having figured out the key point, Zheng Qian said confidently, "If you can hold on until thirty-two, I'll carry you into the top ten."

"You said it yourself, so don't abandon me when the time comes."

Li Mubai smiled, then opened the box he had brought and said, "Your greatsword was damaged in Jinlan City, and you haven't been able to buy a new one in Guangxiang City. Today, Tian Jie and I went to the Scorpion Merchant Guild's shop and chose this greatsword for you as a gift."

Zheng Qian was very happy. Li Mubai truly lived up to his reputation as the Gentleman Sword, standing resolutely by his side today, showing loyalty and righteousness. Tian Jie was also incredibly clever, knowing that Zheng Qian had helped Li Mubai understand, so she bought him a precious sword in return.

Zheng Qian remembered this kindness.

Zheng Qian picked up the heavy sword and liked it more and more.

The blade is covered with delicate patterns, as if naturally formed. Each pattern contains the profound principles of heaven and earth, recording the swordsmith's hard work and wisdom.

The sword's spine is broad and thick, like a dragon's spine, showcasing its extraordinary aura; the blade is extremely sharp, capable of cutting a hair in two, yet it is not without agility amidst its weight, able to deliver an extremely precise strike at the critical moment.

The two characters "Chongfeng" are engraved on the sword, like the majestic Mount Tai, steady and unshakable.

Zheng Qian swung his heavy sword, and a buzzing sound immediately filled the air.

He really liked the heavy sword and couldn't help but say so.

"The sword intent is profound and heavy as Mount Tai. A fine sword."
