The Imperial Guard Captain had already announced the list of the nine contestants, but Ji Tianxing was not among them.
Ji Ke and Yan 'er's hearts were in their mouths as they looked worried.
Ji Ke said worriedly, "This is already the ninth person on the list. Why hasn't Brother Tianxing been announced yet?
Could it be that the Imperial Court eliminated Brother Tianxing?
It shouldn't be! Brother Tianxing defeated the Demon King and saved the Star Ancient Realm and the Tianchen Region. He's the hero of the Tianchen Region! "
Yan 'er was also anxious as she said in a low voice, "Junior Ke Ke, don't worry. There's still the last spot. It's definitely Brother Tianxing's!"
Kun Wu shook his head and said solemnly, "You've probably forgotten that the Murong Clan's Crown Prince, Murong Lingfeng, will definitely not let go of the chance to fight for the Region Leader's position.
Murong Lingfeng's strength seems to be stronger than Duanmu Yulong's.
Even Duanmu Yulong passed the first round of assessment. Murong Lingfeng must be on the list. "
When they heard his analysis, Ji Ke and Yan 'er instantly became even more anxious, and their expressions became even more unsightly.
Ji Tianxing was also worried. After all, he was not sure how the Imperial Court would treat him.
If he was not on the list, he would not even have the chance to fight for the Region Leader's position. How sad would that be?
Finally, the Imperial Guard Captain announced the tenth contestant's name loudly.
"The tenth contestant, Ji Tianxing, is the 56th Crown Prince of the Imperial Residence. He has the strength of Sky Origin Stage Two."
When the three golden words' Ji Tianxing 'appeared on the Imperial Token Stage, Ji Tianxing and Ji Ke heaved a sigh of relief.
However, the other nine contestants' introductions were mostly a few hundred words long. The least was one or two hundred words long.
Only Ji Tianxing's introduction was so simple.
The people in the square immediately burst into a clamor of discussion. Many of them were even shocked.
"What's going on? The tenth contestant is Ji Tianxing? "
"Ji Tianxing? Isn't he the Crown Prince who barged into the City Lord's Mansion at night and captured City Lord Qin Zheng? "
"Oh my god! It was actually him? That guy is so daring. It's already surprising that the Imperial Court didn't punish him, but they actually let him participate in the competition? "
"The other contestants are all descendants of aristocratic families and have powerful backgrounds behind them. Why does this guy have nothing?"
"Yes! Apart from being a prince, he has no background at all. And he is the weakest of them all, only at the second level of Sky Origin Stage … "
"Tsk tsk, adding this guy to the list of candidates is a total joke. Do you want to use his weakness to set off the strength of the other contestants? "
Most people didn't understand this at all. They were mocking him and taking pleasure in his misfortune.
In the eyes of the crowd, Ji Tianxing's strength and influence were completely incomparable to the other participants.
If he could become the Tianchen Region Lord, it would be the biggest joke in the world!
All kinds of discussions and mocking laughter poured into the ears of Ji Tianxing and the others like a tide.
Ji Ke, Yan 'er, and Qian Yue were full of anger. In their anger, they wanted to reason with the people who were mocking them.
Ji Tianxing was not angry. He said indifferently, "Don't bother about those people. They are just ignorant weaklings.
They are weak, but they worship the strong. They themselves were poor and lowly, but they admired and envied the influential figures of the rich and powerful families.
For such people, only facts can shut their mouths and convince them wholeheartedly. "
When Ji Ke and Yan 'er heard this, they immediately nodded in agreement.
"Humph! These people who look down on others are too despicable! "
"When Senior Tianxing becomes the Tianchen Region Lord, I'd like to see if these ignorant bastards will be so shocked that their eyeballs will fall out and they will be so ashamed that they won't be able to show their faces!"
Kun Wu was silent. He glanced sideways at Ji Ke and Yan 'er. He thought to himself, "These two little guys don't understand how terrifying those genius Princes are.
They trust Ji Tianxing so much that it's almost blind.
Not to mention Duanmu Yulong and Qianshan Zhenwu, even those ordinary Princes and geniuses are not people that Ji Tianxing can defeat.
Although he is in the list of participants, he is destined to be eliminated. Sigh … "
Kun Wu sighed silently. He seemed to have foreseen the result.
Ji Tianxing did not say anything else. He led the crowd out of the square and returned to Yun Lan Courtyard.
The Imperial Court's edict had been issued, and the list of participants was out.
The Imperial Guard Captain put away the golden jade slip and led the eight Imperial Guards out of the square and back to the Imperial Court.
The stone tablet on the Emperor Token Stage was still shining with golden light and exuding a sacred and majestic aura.
According to the usual practice, the thousands of golden words on the stone tablet would be displayed on the Emperor Token Stage for about half a month before disappearing on its own.
The edict issued by the Imperial Court was not only displayed in Liantian City, but also in all the human cities in Zhongzhou.
Almost at the same time, in the hundreds of human cities in Zhongzhou, hundreds of millions of people were discussing the list.
Duanmu Yulong, Qianshan Zhenwu, and the others were naturally the focus of the people.
However, the person that the commoners were talking about the most was Ji Tianxing, a commoner with no reputation.
The people in Zhongzhou's cities were still unfamiliar with the name Ji Tianxing.
Even if some people had heard of him, it was because he had defeated the Emperor on the Emperor Platform and successfully entered the Emperor Mansion.
In the eyes of the people in Zhongzhou, although he was a noble Prince, he had just entered the Emperor Mansion.
His strength was too weak and could not be compared with the other nine participants.
No one was optimistic about him. Most of them were even gloating and mocking him, waiting to see him make a fool of himself.
…
After returning to Yun Lan's residence, Ji Tianxing greeted Yun Yao.
There were still 13 days until the end of the month. In the next few days, he would continue to cultivate in seclusion.
He would only come out of seclusion at the end of the month and head to the Imperial Court to participate in the second round of the assessment.
Yun Yao also learned about the list of participants. She knew that the other nine participants were all geniuses and Princes.
Ji Tianxing wanted to stand out from the other ten participants and become the Tianchen Region Lord. It was as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
However, she had confidence in Ji Tianxing and agreed with his decision. She told him to cultivate in seclusion without worrying about anything else.
Ji Tianxing gave Ji Ke and Yan 'er a few more instructions before returning to the secret room in his residence.
After entering the secret room, he activated the Heavenly Spirit Heavy Array and adjusted the gravity to 15 times. He cultivated in a self-destructive way.
After all, with his current strength, he could not compete with Duanmu Yulong and Qianshan Zhenwu.
He only had 13 days left.
