Long Xiuzi roughly shared his plan with Lin Shen, noting that the Immortal Realm's ranking competitions were full of strange and varied events.
Those competitions about who looks better or who has better talent and physique are uncontrollable and rely on natural gift. Only a few people can win rewards from these, which are not considered by Long Xiuzi.
What they plan to compete for are the more formal combat contests, specifically those that only Lower Divine Beings can participate in.
These contests are a major category with numerous stages and sub-categories.
Long Xiuzi doesn't expect to take first place, as the Celestial Court has countless formidable competitors. To think that obtaining a no-grade Divine Artifact could secure first place is impossible.
They are not the only ones who possess no-grade Divine Artifacts. Others can use them too, and there are many precedents of using various no-grade Divine Artifacts in competitions.
