nChapter 70

nIn the east end of the Gote Island .

nThere were a huge amount of people, amounting to more than a million .

nThere were also a large number of queues, in which the young cultivators lined up to get their tokens .

n

"Seriously, I have never seen a queue this big before!

" A young man who looked quite naive, uttered in an annoyed tone .

n

"Me neither .

" A young girl who was behind the young man replied .

n

"Heh, you don't know but it would have been more of a humongous queue if everyone came to get their tokens at the same time .

" Suddenly a random young cultivator piped in, trying to show off his knowledge to the young woman .

n

"Brother, you mean?

" Another young man, who looked scrawny joined in on the conversation .

n

"Yes, there are already more than five million contestants who have already got their own tokens .

" That random young cultivator replied .

n

"Yeah, right . The other empires have already arrived here earlier after all .

" That scrawny young man nodded his head in understanding .

nDavis and Ellia, who were passing over the people who lined up in the queues, heard a lot of conversations like this, which made it easier for them to understand what was going on .

n

"Ellia, did you hear that?

"

nEllia replied as she digested the information she heard,

"Hmm! Looks like there are twelve Islands in which the preliminaries will take place . Not only that, but the Island in which we will be assigned to will be decided by the tokens we draw it seems . . .

"

n

"So there's a chance that we will be separated, huh?

" Realization dawned on her face as she went sad .

n

"Seems like it .

" Davis carelessly muttered and looked at sad her face .

nSeeing her sad expression, he comforted her,

"Haha, don't be disheartened, it's not like we're going to separate forever .

"

nHe then added,

"Besides, we don't know if we are even going to be separated absolutely, so don't lose heart .

"

n

"Hmm! I hope that we are always together!

" Ellia smiled and replied innocently without any ulterior meaning .

nDavis who heard that, froze .

nHer smile was bright and pure, combined with her words, she looked like an angel to Davis .

nHe then hurriedly looked away as if he hadn't minded what she had said, but deep in his heart, it pretty much had a high impact on him .

nThey both then lined up to queue for getting a token for the two of them, as they conversed . The two of them received weird looks from the start as they seemed like two kids who were going on an excursion .

nDavis didn't pay any heed to their weird expressions, but Ellia was visibly discomforted by their unwanted attention .

n

"Don't pay any heed to others Ellia, as a child who came to attend the Grand Sea Continent Meet, you should be proud of yourself .

"

nEllia nodded her head as she put up a proud front .

nDavis laughed at her proud expression which made her instantly embarrassed .

nAfter getting their two tokens, it was already night . They were almost the last participants to get their tokens .

n

"Hmm? Why isn't there a writing on the token? How am I supposed to know which Island to go to?

" Davis, who saw the token couldn't help but question .

n

"Maybe the letters would appear magically?

" Ellia replied in a joking tone .

nSuddenly, a solemn voice sounded out to the whole Island from nowhere . The voice even sounded out a few more kilometres .

n

"As I have already said before, the letters on the token will reveal itself on the day of the preliminaries . We have decided to host the preliminaries tomorrow, so those who did not manage to get a token by today will be automatically disqualified!

"

n

n

nHearing that, many youths who were in the ships or somewhere around the Island, hurriedly went to the east of the Island to get their tokens .

n'A powerful voice amplification formation? No doesn't look like that . It probably is an additional feature of another formation . ' Davis thought as he couldn't figure out where the voice came from .

nTime passed by as morning finally came . No one bothered Davis and Ellia, as they all thought that these kids came from some powerful family to broaden their horizons .

nAgain that solemn voice echoed in fervour .

n

"The time period for collecting your tokens is over, anyone who failed to procure one will be disqualified automatically!

"

nHearing that, the many youths who ran to get their tokens yesterday night like their lives depended on it, heaved a sigh of relief .

n

"Now, the letters in the token will reveal themselves in any moment now .

"

nSuddenly, Davis could sense an energy wave coming from a formation somewhere . He managed to pinpoint it as the formation's energy came from the centre of the Island .

nVarious transparent lights shot above from the middle of the Island which was invisible to almost 99% of the youths who came to participate in the preliminaries .

nDavis also saw those transparent lights as it came close to him at an extreme speed and collided with his token .

nThis kind of situation happened to all the young cultivators who held a token in their hands . No matter if they were on a ship or somewhere far away from the Island, those transparent lights successfully hit the tokens in their hands .

nDavis saw the transparent light transform into some words in the token .

n Fifth Island

nBut for some reason, the token in his hands which was originally white in colour suddenly converted to a red colour .

n

"Ellia, which Island did you get?

"Davis then asked Ellia .

n

"Fifth Island!

"

nDavis heaved a sigh of relief and said,

"We are on the same Island, thankfully .

"

n

"Really!?

"Ellia clenched her fists in excitement as she almost jumped on him to hug, but chose not to as it would be considered rude .

n

"Yes, hehe .

" Davis laughed in a relieved tone . Actually, he was the one who was most afraid of separating from Ellia as there were many dangers here in the preliminaries .

nAfter all, It wasn't too difficult for a person to kill another person in this place .
