In the seventh round, the core disciple ranking battle. As the elder's words fell, a cold sword intent surged. Gu Jianchen transformed into a divine sword and appeared on the arena in the blink of an eye. His powerful aura shocked everyone around him.
"This Gu Jianchen has become stronger again. It seems like he's about to enter the third heaven of the Immortal Ascension Realm!"
Someone said.
Ling Yun curled his lips and stared at Gu Jianchen with some mockery.
Lin Tian stood at the side casually and did not pay attention to Gu Jianchen. Instead, he looked at the high platform. At this time, the matter related to him was over. He began to think again. Why did the Phaseless Immortal Sect come to the Ascension Sect?
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
The sound of air breaking rang out. Soon, the other eight core disciples also walked onto the arena. They all deliberately distanced themselves from Gu Jianchen.
"Begin!"
The elder shouted.
Suddenly, a powerful divine power spread out and filled the entire arena.
The core disciples were all in the Immortal Ascension Realm. They were all very strong. Because Yu Qianling was killed, there were only nine of them left. The other eight did not approach Gu Jianchen. They all used their divine powers and secret techniques.
The divine power surged and shook the void, causing the eyes of many Ascension Sect disciples to light up.
Compared to the ordinary disciples, the core disciples were indeed too strong.
"The tenth Sun Caitao is much stronger! He seems to have reached the peak of the first heaven of the Immortal Ascension Realm! "
"The third Nie Chengpeng is actually suppressing the second Shi Qiu Zhi?!"
"Ying Ren Ye was originally the sixth, but now, he seems to be stronger than the fifth Zhong Shuhua!"
Many people were surprised.
The changes in the nine core disciples surprised many people. Sun Caitao, who used to be the tenth core disciple, Ying Renye, the sixth core disciple, and the third core disciple, Nie Chengpeng, all had a huge change in their battle prowess. However, these eight people did not approach Gu Jianchen to challenge him. They all kept a distance from him.
"Hmph!"
In the center, Gu Jianchen snorted with a cold arrogance. His eyes were like swords as he glanced at Lin Tian and Ling Yun.
Lin Tian was originally guessing why the Phaseless Immortal Sect came to the Ascension Sect. At this moment, he felt a cold gaze on him. He turned his head and saw Gu Jianchen's threatening eyes.
"This stupid thing."
Ling Yun naturally sensed Gu Jianchen's cold gaze and scolded rudely.
Lin Tian glanced at Gu Jianchen and ignored him. He continued to think about what he had been thinking about.
"What the hell is going on?"
He frowned and muttered to himself.
When the Formless Immortal Sect came to the Emergence Dao Sect, he keenly felt that something was wrong.
On the stage, Gu Jianchen's eyes became even colder when he saw that Lin Tianzhi had only glanced at him and ignored him. Lin Tianzhi had actually ignored him! He stared at Lin Tian, his eyes flashing with killing intent and coldness.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Soon, fifteen minutes passed.
Fifteen minutes later, the core disciple ranking battle ended.
Out of the nine core disciples, the first was still Gu Jianchen. Shi Qiuzhi, who was originally second, was replaced by Nie Chengpeng and dropped to third. The fourth Ding Ao was replaced by Ying Ren Ye and dropped to fifth, while the fifth Zhong Shuhua dropped to sixth. The seventh core disciple did not change, and the eighth Ou He was replaced by Sun Caitao and dropped to ninth.
The elder announced the result of the battle loudly, "The new ranking of the core disciples, Gu Jianchen is first, Nie Chengpeng is second, Shi Qiuzhi is third, Ying Ren Ye is fourth, Ding Ao is fifth, Zhong Shuhua is sixth, Zhao Yang is seventh, Sun Caitao is eighth, Ou He is ninth."
Such an ending surprised many people. Other than the seventh ranked Zhao Yang and the first ranked Gu Jianchen, the other core disciples' rankings had changed greatly. However, many disciples were only slightly surprised for a moment before they stopped thinking about it. This was because the seventh round had already ended and the final round was about to begin. The final round, the Holy Son Succession Battle!
Without a doubt, this final round of the Holy Son Succession Battle was the core and key to today's Large Sect Competition!
Lin Tian naturally knew about this as well. At this moment, he stopped to think about the Formless Immortal Sect.
On the high platform, the Ascension Sect Master stood up with a faint radiance in his eyes, "Let's not waste time on unnecessary words. It has been a long time since the previous generation. It is time for the sect to choose a suitable Holy Son. All disciples know the rules. Among the nine core disciples, the Holy Son of this generation will be chosen from you. Now, all of you will fight again. "
"Boom!"
Just as the Ascension Sect Master finished speaking, a majestic divine energy spread out. Gu Jianchen released an extremely shocking sword aura.
Gu Jianchen was still standing on the stage. At this moment, a terrifying sword aura spread out. It was chilling and soul-shaking.
For a moment, many people around the stage were shocked by the sword aura. Many people could not help but retreat.
"Who dares to fight me!"
Gu Jianchen shouted.
As soon as he finished speaking, an even more powerful sword aura surged out. It was as if a peerless killing sword had appeared in this training ground.
"This idiot is not much of a person, but he is indeed very strong," Ling Yun said.
Lin Tian nodded.
Lin Tian nodded. It was as Ling Yun had said. In terms of pure strength, Gu Jianchen was indeed very frightening.
"Let me!" Sun Caitao, who was ranked eighth, walked out. He bowed slightly and said, "If I can't win, I hope Senior Brother Gu can show mercy." Without a doubt, the status of the Chosen Saint was very high. Once one became a Chosen Saint, they would become the next sect master of the Emergence Gate. They would be able to reach the heavens in a single step. As a result, no one had challenged Gu Jianchen in the ranking battles earlier.
"If you want to fight with me, you have to be prepared to pay the price!"
Gu Jianchen said coldly.
The sword aura bloomed in all directions, causing Sun Caitao's expression to change drastically. Although he tried his best to resist, he was still pierced through in a few breaths' time. He fell to the ground and retreated. However, Gu Jianchen did not stop there. The sword aura slashed out again. In the blink of an eye, Sun Caitao was heavily injured. His four limbs were pierced through. Blood dyed the entire stage. Then, he was kicked out of the stage.
"This …"
"How ruthless! He has already won, but he still … "
"That's right."
Many people whispered.
"Let me!"
Divine energy intertwined. Another core disciple stepped forward. It was Zhao Yang, who was currently ranked seventh. The position of the Holy Son was too tempting. Even though Zhao Yang knew that he might not be Gu Jianchen's opponent, he still wanted to try.
"Whoever fights with me will have to pay the price!"
Gu Jianchen said coldly.
Shocking divine might swept out in all directions. In this battle for the position of the Holy Son, several other people stepped onto the arena one by one. Moreover, among these people, there were a few who had secretly hidden some of their strength and revealed it in this battle for the position of the Holy Son. This caused many disciples of the Ascension Gate to be shocked because they were indeed very powerful. Unfortunately, in the end, those who had hidden their strength were still defeated by Gu Jianchen. They were not Gu Jianchen's opponent.
During this process, Gu Jianchen's methods sent chills down the spines of many disciples of the Ascension Sect. No matter who it was, as long as they did not fall off the stage, they would be severely injured by Gu Jianchen's attacks. Among them, the second-ranked Nie Chengpeng had admitted defeat, but his arms had still been chopped off. If it were not for the elder in charge of the sect's Grand Competition stopping Gu Jianchen in time, Nie Chengpeng might have been crippled or even killed on the stage.
An hour later, the Chosen Saint's succession battle ended. Gu Jianchen stood in the ring, surrounded by a pool of blood.
"A bunch of trash wants to fight with me? You're courting death! The position of the Holy Son is mine! Only I deserve it! "
Gu Jianchen said coldly.
Many disciples of the Ascension Sect frowned. Gu Jianchen's methods were too cruel. Moreover, his words were too harsh. All core disciples had the right to fight for the position of the Holy Son. Since he had already won and there was no enmity between them, why did he have to humiliate others like this? The disciples of the Ascension Sect were not surprised that Gu Jianchen could stand on the stage in the end and win against the others, because they had already guessed it.
"As expected, this idiot won in the end. It's really unpleasant to have someone like him as the Holy Son of the Ascension Sect!"
Ling Yun curled his lips.
Lin Tian did not care. He only glanced at Gu Jianchen indifferently.
At this moment, the surroundings of the Martial Arts Practice Field seemed to have quietened down.
The elder in charge of this Sect Grand Competition turned his head and looked at the stage.
"Ascension Sect Master, it seems to have ended. This Holy Son is not bad. He has the dominance and sharpness of a cultivator!"
The Formless Sect Master praised Gu Jianchen.
The Ascension Sect Master's eyes flashed with a faint brilliance. He said with a different tone, "He is not bad." Standing up, the Ascension Sect Master looked at Gu Jianchen and smiled faintly, "The Successor Battle has ended. This generation's Holy Son will be …"
"Wait!" On the stage, Gu Jianchen spoke and interrupted the Ascension Sect Master. "Sect Master, before I become the Holy Son, there are some things that I would like to settle!" As he spoke, Gu Jianchen glanced at Lin Tian and said coldly, "This person rejected my invitation to a duel and is said to have the possibility of defeating me. Before I become the Holy Son, I would like to ask for your permission to have a duel with him! I want to prove to everyone that I am the strongest in the Ascension Sect. I am not someone some trash can compare to! "
Staring at Lin Tian, Gu Jianchen's eyes flashed with a sinister light. He wanted to cripple Lin Tian in front of everyone!
"This …"
Many disciples of the Ascension Sect frowned. They secretly thought that Gu Jianchen was too overbearing. In the beginning, someone had only said that Lin Tian had the possibility of defeating him, so he forced Lin Tianyi into a duel. Lin Tian did not go, so he went to Lin Tian's residence to denounce him. Although he was sent flying by Lin Tian's killing formation, he had asked for it. He could not blame Lin Tian. Many people knew very well that the conflict between Lin Tian and Gu Jianchen had always been Gu Jianchen's fault. Now, Gu Jianchen was about to become the Holy Son of the Ascension Sect, yet he still acted like this. It was a little too much.
On the stage, the Ascension Sect Master glanced at Lin Tian before looking at Gu Jianchen. He said, "You and Lin Tian are both the most outstanding disciples of my Ascension Sect. I do not wish for there to be any more disputes between the two of you. Let bygones be bygones. There were conflicts between the two of you in the past, but fortunately, the two of you did not suffer any major losses. This is the best thing that can happen right now. I hope that the two of you can coexist amicably in the future and push my Ascension Sect towards greater prosperity. "
"Jianchen, listen to the sect master and inherit the position of Holy Son."
The secluded elder Li Danyan said.
Gu Jianchen stared at the two great figures on the stage as he radiated with an even more powerful sword presence.
"Sect master, please allow this battle. The Ascension Sect has me, Gu Jianchen, and no Lin Tian. I will definitely cripple him today!"
Staring at Lin Tian, the sword in Gu Jianchen's hand intertwined with cold sword light.
The Ascension Sect Master and the secluded elder Li Danyan frowned. Beside them, the sect master of the Formless Sect looked down with interest.
It was also at this moment that Lin Tian soared into the air.
"Sect master, my apologies. Lin Tian does not wish to cause trouble, but he does not like to be bullied and forced by others for no reason. I do not have pride, but I have pride. " Lin Tian's steps were very steady as he stepped through the air. He arrived at the largest stage at the very centre of the training ground. His cold gaze landed on Gu Jianchen, "Let's fight to the death. Come up!"
