Mu Wan's soft words stunned Yan Chutian. After several breaths, he helplessly smiled, his face filled with understanding. That's right, he and Qiu Yu's performance was indeed extraordinary, but in the eyes of some people, they might not be considered top-notch Saints, because it was still uncertain whether they would encounter Xu Jian and the other Saints.
Even so, Yan Chutian still maintained his previous attitude. No matter who it was, they would not be able to stop him.
He had to return to the Heaven Realm as soon as possible. The Stairway to Heaven might be the fastest or even the only way. He could not miss it.
As he thought about it, the first round of battles continued. Luo Xue, Loring and the rest went up the stage one by one. What was worth mentioning was that facing Luo Xue, who was known as the top disciple in the entire Southern Region, her opponent, who was only at the first level of Elixir, did not dare to accept the challenge. He smiled bitterly and gave up.
However, no one laughed at him for giving up. After all, the gap between him and Luo Xue was too big. Even if he insisted on fighting, the end result would be a crushing defeat. He was just asking for humiliation.
Seeing that her opponent gave up, Luo Xue's face was still as cold as ice. She did not have the slightest bit of emotion. Speaking of which, she was exactly the same as Luo Qingyi. The latter also had a cold expression. Her body seemed to be surrounded by a chilly aura.
Loring was also Luo Qingyi's disciple. However, she was not cold. Her every frown and smile was filled with youthful vitality. Furthermore, because she had grown up, the unique charm of a young girl was even more obvious. Even though she was not as good as Luo Xue, she had already secretly attracted the attention of many disciples.
When she grew up a little more, she would probably be a demonic beauty. However, because of her unique situation, no one knew when she would grow up again.
"What are you looking at?"
Suddenly, a soft voice rang in Yan Chutian's ears. Even Yan Chutian did not react in time and was almost shocked. Mu Wan seemed to have sensed something from Yan Chutian's rather big reaction. Her beautiful eyes followed the direction he was looking at and gradually locked onto an exquisite and delicate body not far away.
"Tsk tsk … it's really beautiful. No wonder his eyes didn't even move."
Mu Wan's faint smile made Yan Chutian instinctively feel a trace of danger, so he didn't dare to refute. He could only smile awkwardly and look in another direction, thinking about how to change the topic.
But little did he know that all of his reactions had been noticed by Mu Wan, so she couldn't help but frown slightly and snort lightly in her heart, and then she went silent.
Half past noon, the first round finally ended. After the first round, half of the Holy Sons had been eliminated, and there were no more than 50 or 60 left.
These 50 to 60 people still had to go through the second, third, and even fourth rounds of the arena before the final 10 top-notch Saints could be determined. These 10 top-notch Saints would represent the southern region and participate in the Heaven's Chance competition with the 10 top-notch Saints from the northern region.
"Dong …!"
The ancient sound of the bell rang again, and it meant that the second round of the selection had begun. All the Holy Sons who participated in the second round of the selection drew a new number. This time, Yan Chutian's number was extremely close to the back, and he was already number 29.
29, which meant that his arena match was extremely close to the end, and he was very close to the end.
Mu Wan, Loring, and the others' numbers were clearly very close to the front this time. They immediately rushed out of the center of the square and onto the arena that corresponded to their number.
There was no need to look at Luo Xue, Xu Jian, and the others. They were known as top-notch Saints, and their victory was almost certain. The matches that were worth watching were Loring and Mu Wan's. The two women's cultivation levels were only at the second level of the Elixir, but their opponents were at the third level of the Elixir Realm.
However, even though their cultivation levels were not as high, they still fought with their opponents and finally defeated them in a way that shocked everyone. The weak defeated the strong!
When Mu Wan returned, Yan Chutian generously gave himself the most admirable smile. He smiled and said, "Senior Sister Xiaoyu, you're mighty and domineering!"
Mu Wan was also amused by Yan Chutian's comical attitude, but she quickly restrained her smile when she recalled a certain situation not long ago. However, since she had already laughed, she could not take it back, so Mu Wan looked rather awkward. Her cheeks were red, and she did not know what to do.
After a few people, it was finally Yan Chutian's turn. Yan Chutian's appearance attracted a lot of attention. After all, he was already a famous figure in the southern region, and his reputation could be said to be the best below the top-notch Saints!
Yan Chutian went up the stage under the gazes of many. When he looked over, he saw a two-meter-tall dark figure standing on the other side of the stage, like a tower.
The tower was as immovable as a mountain, as if it was connected to the entire stage and the ground. It was as if no matter what attack landed on it, it would not move an inch.
Like Yan Chutian, this iron tower like figure also attracted the gazes of many people. There was even an elder who cast his gaze over and paid attention to him.
"Heh … that's Zhou Xuan, the Saint. Although the Tianshan elder did not officially accept him as a disciple, he can be considered half a disciple after several teachings."
"Speaking of which, isn't Yan Chu an elder's disciple? This is going to be interesting. This is the first time the disciples of two elders are competing! "
"That's the truth. However, Yan Chu has already stepped into the third level of the Elixir Realm, which is two levels higher than Yan Chu, who is at the first level of the Elixir Realm. Moreover, Senior Brother Zhou Xuan has condensed a spiritual inscription! "
"What, Senior Brother Zhou Xuan has condensed a spiritual inscription?!"
Spiritual inscriptions were not foreign to any cultivator. In fact, they were very familiar with them. After stepping into the Elixir Realm, other than forming an Elixir in the Dantian, one had to condense a spiritual inscription on the Elixir Realm.
However, condensing a spiritual inscription was extremely difficult. It was normal for some cultivators at the third or fourth level of the Elixir Realm to not condense a spiritual inscription. However, Zhou Xuan was obviously not an ordinary cultivator. He had already condensed a spiritual inscription!
Therefore, the crowd's cheers immediately leaned towards Zhou Xuan, because Zhou Xuan had too much of an advantage. In their opinion, even if Yan Chutian could fight against someone of a higher level, it was impossible for him to overcome such a huge gap.
Therefore, some mocking laughter could be heard continuously.
"Heh … looks like Yan Chu's luck is coming to an end. He has no chance of winning against Zhou Xuan!"
"Yan Chu has just entered the Elixir Realm. I'm afraid he doesn't even know what a spiritual inscription is. How can he compete with Zhou Xuan?"
"Being able to reach this step should have been his limit. He should stop before going too far. Otherwise, if he gets lucky and becomes the top Saint of the Southern Region, it will be the misfortune of the Southern Region. "
"…"
With the Spiritual Energy Light Screen, Yan Chutian could not hear what was going on outside. However, this did not prevent him from knowing what kind of uproar the people outside were about. After all, he could see the cultivation of the man in front of him, as well as the faint intent of the spiritual inscription.
He was afraid that the man in front of him had already condensed a spiritual inscription.
"Condensed a spiritual inscription …"
Yan Chutian muttered to himself. There was no fear on his face. So what if the other party had condensed a spiritual inscription? He … had condensed two spiritual inscriptions!
When Yan Chutian looked at Zhou Xuan, Zhou Xuan naturally looked back at him. His gaze was gloomy and cold. His expression couldn't be described as haughty or solemn, but it exuded confidence from within.
This confidence meant that no matter who stood in front of him, he was confident that he could defeat them.
"I know you. You are the disciple brought back by Elder Han Chen."
Zhou Xuan suddenly said slowly. His face was still calm. Hearing this, Yan Chutian also replied calmly. "I also know you. You are the disciple of the Sky Mountain Elder."
"I am not the disciple of the Sky Mountain Elder. I was just lucky to be taught by the Elder. However, I will work hard to become the Elder's true disciple."
"So, do you understand what I mean?"
Zhou Xuan's meaning was self-evident. He was determined to win this battle!
If he wanted to snatch victory from his hands, then he was simply not taking him, Yan Chutian, seriously.
Therefore, Yan Chutian did not answer Zhou Xuan directly. Instead, he moved slightly and assumed a fighting stance.
"Senior Brother Zhou Xuan, please enlighten me!"
…
On the high platform, Han Chen's eyes were fixed on a certain arena. While he was staring, an old man's voice suddenly sounded in his ears. It was none other than Elder Tian Shan.
