The Sword Soul appeared only to have Chu Kuangren obtain it. The Great Sword Tournament seemed trivial in comparison to what he had gotten.
In the end, it was clear that Chu Kuangren would be the one to take the Century Sword. After all, who else would dare to fight him?
He had Heaven Starlight, Troop-Breaker, Descendant Self, and when you include a dozen others that were inside Sword Hoarder's case, Chu Kuangren had seventeen treasured swords that most cultivators could only dream of having.
Chu Kuangren kept them all since he had the Sacred Emerald Sword Case anyway. All he needed now was to nurture it, and all the swords within it would get the same effects.
"Esteemed sword cultivators! You know I have called upon you to take part in the Great Sword Tournament, but I also have another announcement!"
On the tournament grounds, Feng Xuanzi addressed all the sword cultivators loudly.
The crowd looked at him curiously.
