The Goddess Empress sat in the air, her multicolored light filling the battlefield. She shook her hands and spoke in a gentle voice.
"The last Divine List, please come forward!!"
An old voice rang out from the summit of Mount Phoenix's Perch. Countless people raised their heads and saw an old man in grey robes standing at the summit forty thousand meters above the ground. His long robes fluttered in the wind, making countless people revere him.
"Is that … the Lord of Divine City?"
Someone who recognized the grey-robed old man couldn't help but exclaim. The others who recognized him also became excited.
This grey-robed old man was the person in charge of Divine City. It was said that he came from the Divine Nation and had been sent here by the Divine Nation to manage the entire city. His role was similar to the Goddess Empress of the Divine Palaces, but his status wasn't as high.
"Another Goddess Empress?" Lin Feng was also surprised. If one didn't look closely at the grey-robed old man, they would easily take him for an ordinary old man. But how could the person in charge of Divine City be so simple?
"Of the one hundred experts on the Divine List from a year ago, only the top five didn't participate. The rest are all here!"
"But many things have happened in the past year. Thirteen of them had problems with their cultivation and became trash. They don't dare participate anymore. Two of them lost their lives: Feng Yi Yuan and Tan Long!"
"Besides these fifteen, there are eighty people! All of them are here!"
Shouted the grey-robed old man. He coldly glanced at the eighty-five people and then at the new generation that wasn't on the list.
"You come from the six gates, five governments, and even four halls. You are all outstanding cultivators of your own factions, so the next competition will be very cruel. I hope you won't back down!"
Shouted the old man. He looked at Lin Feng and then at the strong cultivators from the four halls.
Even though Lin Feng had killed Feng Yi Yuan and could be said to be ranked twenty-seventh on the Divine List, the real ranking would only be calculated after this competition. Therefore, Lin Feng was no longer on the list.
"The Divine List and the Tournament of the Apex have a total of four stages: the preliminaries, the semi-finals, the finals, and the challenge!
"The preliminaries have already finished. The Divine List Preparatory Competition at the Protectorate Office is the preliminaries. Next, everyone will participate in the semi-finals!"
Continued the grey-robed old man, his face emotionless, as if none of this had anything to do with him.
"The semi-finals will eliminate ninety percent of the people, leaving only the top ten experts of the Divine List. Therefore, the last ten people will be the top ten of this list."
"The remaining ninety people will be ranked according to the order of failure."
"The top ten will proceed to the finals to fight against Demigod Emperors. Whoever lasts the longest will be the double champion!"
"After the finals, it will be the challenge competition. Anyone who is dissatisfied can challenge them. If they succeed, they will be able to sit in their respective seats. If they fail, all their previous seats will be revoked and replaced by the next person."
"Let the competition begin. First round, Mental Battle!"
Boom!
As the grey-robed old man roared, everyone felt the world tremble as if it feared the old man's Divine Emperor might. Countless strands of grey energy gathered on the old man's body. Suddenly, the old man formed a seal with both hands and with a shout, the seal shot up into the sky.
Suddenly, the sky and earth became dark and gloomy. After a short time, everybody realized that there was a gigantic chessboard in the sky. It was a gigantic chessboard filled with spacetime Dao energies. Even Lin Feng was astonished.
Lin Feng's space-time Dao energies had already reached level seven, but the old man's space-time Dao energies were already at the top of level nine.
Lin Feng was astonished. At the same time, he admired the old man for being a Divine Emperor.
"Let's climb the mountain!" The grey-robed elder let out a shout, and countless experts took a step forward. They used all of their abilities to reach the summit of Feng Qi Mountain, which was forty thousand meters high.
However, in the process of ascending the mountain, there were still fights. In just a short moment, five people were blasted down, losing the right to compete. The expressions of the five people from the sects that they were from also changed, and they were somewhat resentful of the people who attacked them.
But a competition was a competition. It was cruel, and there was no logic to it.
"Meng Qing, let's go too," said Lin Feng to Meng Qing.
Meng Qing lightly nodded her head. Her dress fluttered as she leaped into the air like a fairy from the heavens. She didn't stop to rest at all. While the others were still fighting, Meng Qing had already flown halfway up the mountain.
At this moment, a few people at the waist of the mountain wanted to blast Meng Qing away, but they were horrified to find that a thousand-year-old ice aura had enveloped them. Their bodies were instantly frozen. In the end, Meng Qing waved her hand, and the three seventh-layer Holy Spirit Emperors were blasted away just like that.
Meng Qing did not stop and continued to fly upwards. At this time, no one wanted to find trouble with Meng Qing.
Lin Feng jumped up the mountain. He didn't stop. Everybody saw a black silhouette jump up the mountain. That person wanted to attack Lin Feng, but Lin Feng's demon energies were terrifying.
Lin Feng was still ten thousand meters away from reaching the top of the mountain, but at that moment, Lin Feng sensed danger. His facial expression turned ice-cold and he immediately punched towards his side.
Boom boom! Two explosions sounded and Lin Feng saw the person who wanted to attack him by surprise.
"Heeheehee, Lin Feng, you're lucky that you're quick to react. I will make sure that you die!"
Said the Great Imperial Book mockingly. He looked like a bloodthirsty demon, especially his bloodshot eyes. He didn't look as pure and holy as before. Instead, he looked evil.
The Great Imperial Book climbed up the mountain. Lin Feng was furious. He jumped up the mountain and landed next to the old man in grey clothes.
Very quickly, everybody who could climb the mountain was at the top of Qi Feng Mountain, including Zhu Dengsi, Su Zi, Yue Zhi, and the cold-faced young men from the four halls. They all looked arrogant, as if they despised everybody else.
Lin Zhe Tian and Yelu Dan Xing also arrived at the top of the mountain. The old man in grey clothes looked at the number of people, there were a hundred and fifty-five people, which meant that fifty-five people were going to be eliminated.
Those people were the elites of the sects. No matter who was eliminated, it would be a great loss for the sects and the city.
Of course, the old man in grey clothes didn't care about that. He was just announcing the rules, nothing else mattered to him.
"Everybody, some of you are already famous in Godly City and even in Godly Palace. Therefore, for the sake of fairness, I will give you masks. You will have to wear the masks when you fight. That way, you won't know each other."
Said the old man in the grey robe. His robe fluttered and a grey light enveloped everybody's face. Lin Feng felt a slight pain. Then, he touched his face and realized that he was wearing an iron mask.
The Devil Iron Mask. This was his identity for the God List. In the near future, the Devil Iron Mask would be his.
Lin Feng realized that his clothes had also changed. He was wearing a white robe instead of a black one.
Lin Feng sighed. The old man was really thoughtful. Nobody would recognize him. Since everybody was the same, there was no need to fear him anymore.
"Enter the forest and use your strength to put the chess pieces on the chessboard."
Shouted the old man. Then, he gave out more than a hundred different kinds of chess pieces. Lin Feng's chess piece was still in the shape of a demon.
