Chapter 551: Chapter 203: Flying Shuttles, Flying Ships, Magic Battle Arena, Minor Divine Techniques, Here by Request (Part 2)

The Middle-Grade Flying Shuttles cost between 150,000 to 200,000, comparable to the speed of the Eighth-Layer and Ninth-Layer Qi Cultivation Stage.

Only when the flying shuttles reach Top Grade can they match the Sword Flight of Foundation Establishment Realm Cultivators.

There are simply no Top Grade ones for sale.

The Cultivators from the Cultivation Clan who craft these flying shuttles outright stated that Top Grade flying shuttles can only be found in other Realms.

In the Li Fire Domain, even the Nanming Family, the most skilled at crafting flying shuttles, hasn’t mastered this technique. At best, they produce one Top Grade flying shuttle per year.

"The treasure that is the flying shuttle is indeed more prevalent in the Celestial River Domain.

Moreover, the Celestial River Domain not only has Top Grade flying shuttles but also flying ships.

These flying ships are extremely valuable and precious, even more so than flying shuttles.

Even the Lowest-Grade flying ships are faster than Top Grade flying shuttles. Some of the top-tier flying ships are even hailed as combat machines, equipped with countless Third-Grade and Fourth-Grade Arrays, unmatched in attack.

However, similarly, their prices are astonishing.

A few tens of millions of Spirit Stones is quite common."

Zheng Qi, standing to the side, couldn’t help but speak, his voice full of longing.

Zhou Changwang listened and nodded silently.

Such precious treasures are usually found only within sects because only major sects and Immortal Sects have the capability to equip such treasures.

Soon after, they arrived at the Magic Battle Arena.

"This Magic Battle Arena is one of the major attractions in Celestial Essence City, where cultivators gather year-round to engage in magical combat and battle.

There are three lists: the Same Realm List, the Qi Cultivation List, and the Foundation Establishment List.

To make it onto the Same Realm List, one must first defeat ten cultivators of the same realm in the Magic Battle Arena.

Once on the Same Realm List, you will be arranged to battle other strong members of the list.

The one ranked first can be called invincible in the same realm.

In addition to fame, there are generous rewards.

Moreover, each magical combat also sets wagering rewards.

Basically, those who rank high on the Same Realm List in the Magic Battle Arena don’t need to worry about resources, as they can acquire the cultivation resources they need through rewards.

In fact, many Loose Cultivators make a living through this.

Some even gain a reputation such that they can earn substantial rewards just by standing in for others.

As for the Qi Cultivation List and the Foundation Establishment List, they are only held at the end of each year.

At that time, most of the accomplished cultivators in Celestial Essence City will participate to determine the winners.

So this ranking is generally highly regarded.

Although there are numerous Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators in Celestial Essence City, it’s still challenging to find a Same Realm List powerhouse.

So the usual scene here mostly involves skirmishes between the same realm Qi Cultivation List powerhouses.

Oh, aside from the Same Realm List, there’s another special battle mode in the Magic Battle Arena.

It’s called cross-boundary battle!

Only the top-tier fighters on the Same Realm List dare to initiate it.

Moreover, the challenge target must be a Same Realm List powerhouse one realm higher than oneself.

For instance, a Seventh-Layer Qi Cultivation challenges an Eighth-Layer Qi Cultivation.

Or even a Seventh-Layer challenging a Ninth-Layer..."

As these words were being spoken, the group proceeded into the Magic Battle Arena.

The Magic Battle Arena charges for tickets, usually three Lower-Grade Spirit Stones each.

Only when a special battle occurs does the ticket price increase dramatically.

This time, they offered tickets at ten Lower-Grade Spirit Stones each, indicating an intense special battle is imminent inside.

Upon inquiry, they discovered it’s the Eighth-Layer Same Realm Invincible Yang Jian challenging the Ninth-Layer Same Realm List third-ranked Zhao Zihu.

In other words, a cross-boundary battle is currently underway in the Magic Battle Arena today.

Upon entering, the entire arena is packed with people, though everyone has their designated seating.

The lower area is the platform, and between it and the audience seats is a defensive Second-Grade High-Tier Array, which not only prevents audience interference but also protects the audience.

The array barrier acts like a very thick mirror, allowing sound and light to pass through while blocking countless spiritual energy attacks.

At this moment, two Seventh-Layer Female Cultivators are in battle.

One is ranked seventeenth on the Same Realm List, the other fourteenth, engaged in a Same Realm battle.

One excels at the Flying Sword Technique, while the other is superior in magic, employing the Flowing Light Illusion to confuse adeptly.

After a stick of incense’s time, the magic proficient Female Cultivator deceived her opponent’s Flying Sword attack, then charged toward the opponent like a divine swan, with a Flying Sword thrusting forward.

Bang!

It gets blocked by a Protective Spirit Talisman.

However, this still indicated the opponent had lost to her.

Besides the Standard Magical Artifacts provided by the Magic Battle Arena, the use of any Talismanic Magical Artifacts, Spirit Insects, Spirit Beasts, Spirit Pills, etc., is prohibited.

The Magic Battle Arena focuses on comparing the magic and skills of both parties, reflecting real combat strength.

External powers are ultimately external and cannot determine victory or defeat.

Following this battle, two more battles ensued.

One involved a Seventh-Layer same realm combat, the other an Eighth-Layer.

Not until the third match did the Eighth-Layer invincible powerhouse Yang Jian face off against the Ninth-Layer third-ranked Zhao Ziqiang.

Both wielded Standard Flying Swords provided by the Magic Battle Arena, and both were only at the Lower Grade Spiritual Artifact Level. But as soon as it began, the Flying Swords were unleashed.

Clang!

Immediately, they began a rapid confrontation.
