The hundreds of thousands of people in the plaza stared at the empty space below the arena.
Everyone's gaze was focused on the dozen or so geniuses.
No one had expected that someone would fly out of the crowd and head straight for the arena.
Immediately, countless people looked at Ji Tianxing with puzzled and astonished expressions. They began to whisper to each other.
"Eh, who's that guy?"
"This is a ranking battle for the fifteen geniuses. What's that guy doing in the arena?"
"Is that kid here to cause trouble? He actually dares to interfere in a ranking battle for the God Disciples. Isn't he afraid of death? "
"Yes! The Sage Emperor and the Sage Master are supervising the battle, but this guy still dares to cause trouble. He must be tired of living! "
"Everyone, look at that kid carefully. He seems a little strange. He doesn't look like someone from the Outcloud Empire."
"His clothes and the style of his hair are a little strange. Is he a foreigner from another empire?"
Countless people's discussions converged into a torrent of sound waves that reverberated above the plaza.
Almost everyone was puzzled and questioned Ji Tianxing's identity and purpose.
Many people revealed expressions of schadenfreude, as if they were waiting for a good show to unfold.
Below the arena, the dozen or so young geniuses frowned and sized up Ji Tianxing with complicated expressions.
Whoosh!
With a flash of golden light, Ji Tianxing landed in the floating arena.
He stood calmly in the middle of the arena, his body as straight as a sword. His entire body naturally exuded the confidence and arrogance of a genius powerhouse.
The Outcloud Emperor, the Sage Master, and the eight powerhouses revealed strange expressions and frowned as they sized up Ji Tianxing.
One of them, a middle-aged man dressed in silver armor who seemed to be a general, asked in a dignified voice, "Kid, who are you? Why did you barge into the arena and offend the Sage Emperor? "
Ji Tianxing understood about 80% of the man's words and roughly understood what he was trying to say.
Thus, he bowed to Emperor Izumo, the Sagemaster, and the others on the rainbow clouds in a manner that was neither servile nor overbearing. He then spoke in the language of the Shenwu Continent. "Greetings, Sage Emperor and Sagemaster. I've come here to challenge the rankings."
In the past three days, he had quickly mastered the Shenwu Continent's language with his great wisdom and comprehension.
However, the time was too short, and he could only grasp a few simple words. Thus, his speech was very short, and his accent was somewhat awkward.
When the Outcloud Emperor, the Sage Master, and the eight powerhouses heard his words, they immediately frowned.
The dozen or so young geniuses below the arena and many of the commoners in the square all revealed strange expressions as they started to discuss.
"This guy is really weird. His accent is really weird!"
"I can tell from his accent that he's definitely not from our Chu Yun Empire. He's not even a subject of Lord Taihao's rule!"
"Is this guy crazy? . is Shenwu of Shenwu Continent's.........
...........................................
............................... are....................................
Men, take this kid down and behead him immediately! "
The silver-armored general waved his hand, and a group of guards around the arena flew into the sky to capture Ji Tianxing.
Seeing this, countless people revealed gloating smiles.
Ji Tianxing's expression did not change, and he remained calm. He looked directly at the Outcloud Emperor and said in a sonorous tone, "I admire the Outcloud Emperor's reputation. I heard that the Outcloud Emperor thirsts for talents and is benevolent and wise, so I came here.
I didn't expect the Outcloud Emperor to treat a talent like this. It's really … disappointing! "
His expression and tone were very cold and filled with deep disappointment. There was even a trace of contempt.
Together with his awkward accent and choice of words, this sentence immediately made Great Emperor Chu Yun and the Sacred Expert's expressions change, their brows furrowing fiercely.
The Outcloud Emperor waved his sleeves and ordered sternly, "Stand down!"
The group of guards who had just rushed into the arena immediately obeyed and retreated.
Seeing this, Ji Tianxing's expression did not change, but he was laughing in his heart. 'Hahaha, I made the right bet!
Previously, when I was investigating in the city, I heard that the Outcloud Emperor rejoiced in grandiose achievements and tried his best to curry favor with Martial God Taihao. Therefore, he acted as if he was thirsty for talents and wanted to recruit talents.
In order to snatch the martial dao geniuses from other countries, he did not hesitate to spend a huge amount of cultivation resources and paid a huge price. '
Without a doubt, Ji Tianxing came to participate in the ranking battle and stepped into the arena in front of everyone. He was naturally prepared.
He had already investigated the Outcloud Emperor's character and understood the situation. That was why he took such a risk.
As it turned out, he had succeeded.
The Outcloud Emperor looked down at him and sized him up with a sharp gaze. He asked sternly, "What's your name?"
"Ji Tianxing!"
The Outcloud Emperor nodded slightly and asked again, "From your accent, you're not a citizen of the Outcloud Empire?"
Ji Tianxing replied calmly, "I came from afar to seek a future in the name of the Outcloud Emperor."
The Outcloud Emperor raised his eyebrows and continued to ask, "Then which country are you from?"
"A hero does not ask where he came from. I have always roamed the world." Ji Tianxing lied without blinking, looking proud and arrogant.
In addition, his words were concise and to the point, and his temperament was cold. Instantly, everyone felt that he was a cold and arrogant expert.
The geniuses below the arena discussed among themselves with complicated expressions.
Wu Que and Lan Yiqing looked at him with interest and observed him silently.
The Outcloud Emperor's lips curled into a playful smile. He looked at Ji Tianxing and asked again, "You dare to call yourself a genius and a hero in front of me? How courageous!
Alright, I'll give you a chance today just because you're not afraid of death! "
When the hundreds of thousands of citizens in the square heard what the Outcloud Emperor said, they were in disbelief and exclaimed.
The Holy Sovereign and the eight powerful experts were also shocked. They wanted to stop the Outcloud Emperor.
"Saint Emperor, you can't do this."
"Saint Emperor, please reconsider. We don't know where this person came from. You don't have to be so polite to him!"
"Saint Emperor, this is unfair to the geniuses of our country!"
The Outcloud Emperor did not listen to their advice. He waved his hand domineeringly and said, "Everyone in the world knows that I am thirsty for talents. I am courteous to the wise and only want to choose the best disciples for the Divine Master.
Now that such a proud man has come in my name and wants to prove his talent in front of all the citizens … How can I reject him?
Do you want me to be a person who goes back on his words? "
The Holy Sovereign and the other powerful experts were speechless. They could not persuade the Outcloud Emperor anymore.
Ji Tianxing quickly cupped his hands and bowed. "The Saint Emperor is wise. Thank you!"
