Three days passed by in just a blink of an eye.
Ten days later, the Mystical Sky Mansion's Saint Martial Secret Zone would open. At that time, only thirty people would be able to enter to train.
Naturally, instead of calling it training, it would be more accurate to call it treasure hunting.
There were many good things in the Saint Martial Secret Zone. The most attractive thing was undoubtedly the various Divine Ability Relics hidden inside. Those Divine Ability Relics were ancient relics left behind by powerhouses in the past.
Not many of those powerhouses were from the Mystical Sky Mansion. After all, the Mystical Sky Mansion had only been promoted to a quasi third-rate force recently.
The Mystical Sky Mansion had spent a lot of effort to recruit Saint Stage geniuses below the age of forty in hopes of having more people.
If someone successfully broke through to the Divine Saint Stage after coming out of the Saint Martial Secret Zone and comprehended the Divine Ability recorded in the Divine Ability Relics in the Saint Martial Secret Zone, that would be the greatest reward.
In the history of the Mystical Sky Mansion, there were only a handful of people who had broken through to the Divine Saint Stage and comprehended the Divine Ability recorded in the Divine Ability Relics after coming out of the Saint Martial Secret Zone.
Those who managed to pass down their Divine Abilities were even rarer.
Ten days later, the Mystical Sky Mansion's Saint Martial Secret Zone would open. Since there were only thirty spots, they would have to compete for the spots to enter the Saint Martial Secret Zone.
Out of the thirty spots, the Heaven Palace had ten spots.
The remaining twenty spots were divided among the other three palaces.
Although the Heaven Palace had ten spots, the Heaven Palace's disciples who met the requirements to enter the Saint Martial Secret Zone were not happy at all.
If it was possible, they would rather compete with the other three palaces.
Although the other three palaces only had less than seven spots on average, the number of outstanding young disciples from the other three palaces was not even half of the Heaven Palace's.
Although the Heaven Palace had ten spots, the competition was extremely intense.
There was a vast and boundless platform at the peak of the steep mountain where the Heaven Palace was located. The competition for the spots to enter the Saint Martial Secret Zone would be held here.
For this reason, it was already crowded early in the morning. Many people from the other three palaces even came to watch the show.
Although they were also competing for the spots to enter the Saint Martial Secret Zone, it was not as exciting as the Heaven Palace's. For this reason, the Earth Palace, Mystical Palace, and Yellow Palace's disciples who were not qualified to compete had all come to the Heaven Palace early in the morning to watch the show.
"The spots for the Heaven Palace's spots," a Palace's Heaven Palace's Heaven Palace's.
One of the Heavenly Palace's disciples lamented.
"That's right. It sounds like our Heavenly Palace has more quotas than the other three palaces. However, if we were to really compete for it, the weakest of the ten Heavenly Palace's disciples who obtain the quotas will definitely be stronger than the weakest three disciples from the other three palaces."
Another Heavenly Palace's disciple said.
"Isn't what you're saying nonsense? Putting everything else aside, just the powerhouses above the Refined Saint Stage are already four in the Heaven Palace. More than two months ago, our Heaven Palace had new disciples. That Ling Tian and that Wang Fei Xuan are both at the Refined Saint Stage. With this, our Heaven Palace will have six Refined Saint Stage powerhouses below the age of forty! "
"The six of them will definitely be able to obtain a spot to enter the Saint Martial Secret Zone today. The competition for the remaining four spots will definitely be very intense. I suspect that without a cultivation base at the peak of the Pristine Saint Stage, I'm afraid it's impossible to obtain a spot to enter the Saint Martial Secret Zone. "
"So many sage level geniuses have been recruited into the mansion this time. And, this has also put a lot of pressure on the people who originally met the requirements."
"That's right. Initially, I didn't think much of it when they said they were going to recruit Saint Stage geniuses. I thought no matter how many they recruited, there would definitely not be anyone above the Refined Saint Stage. However, it did not cross my mind that not only did they recruit two Refined Saint Stage powerhouses, but both of them even came to our Heaven Palace! "
"Let's not talk about Wang Fei Xuan. She's the granddaughter of the Mansion Master of Tyrannic Saber Mansion. She's also famous in our Mystical Sky Mansion. That Ling Tian, I wonder where he came from. His strength is the strongest among all the disciples below the age of forty in our Mystical Sky Mansion!"
"That Ling Tian was able to fight Guo Lu to a draw previously. His cultivation base must be close to the peak of the Refined Saint Stage. After that, he went to the Spirit Pool again. It only took him twenty days to completely absorb the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in the Spirit Pool! Do you think it's possible that he has already broken through to the peak of the Refined Saint Stage? “
"Isn't that obvious? I think he must have broken through! "
"I think so too!"
…
Around the vast platform, one by one, the Heaven Palace's disciples discussed animatedly. The topic shifted from the competition to enter the Saint Martial Secret Zone to Duan Lingtian.
Almost 80% of the Heaven Palace's disciples felt that Duan Lingtian must have broken through to the peak of the Refined Saint Stage!
At the corner of the crowd, Guo Lu stood there quietly with a faint smile on his face.
Only he knew that his Junior Brother Ling Tian's strength had most likely broken through to the peak of the Refined Saint Stage a long time ago.
To Junior Brother Ling Tian, the baptism in the Spirit Pool only gave him a push on his path to the Eminent Saint Stage.
Naturally, the reason Guo Lu had such thoughts was because Duan Lingtian had gone easy on him previously.
Due to this reason, he felt Duan Lingtian's cultivation base was already at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage at that time. After the baptism in the Spirit Pool, he might not have broken through, but his cultivation base must have improved.
Due to this reason, he did not comment on the discussion of the group of Heaven Palace's disciples.
"Guo Lu, do you also think that Ling Tian has broken through to the peak of the Refined Saint Stage?"
Suddenly, two figures appeared next to Guo Lu. They were two young men. Upon closer inspection, they looked exactly the same. Not only that, but both of them were dressed in white. Coupled with their handsome faces, they appeared graceful and extraordinary.
The person who spoke was the white-clad young man on the left.
It was impossible to distinguish between these two white-clad young men because one of them had a red mole between his brows while the other one had a black mole between his brows.
The person who spoke to Guo Lu was the white-clad young man with the black mole between his brows.
"I don't know."
When Guo Lu saw the two of them, he could not help but frown.
Although these two fellows did not have any deep enmity with him, they liked to flaunt their strength.
After he had been defeated by the two of them, they actually came to challenge him frequently, and each time, they showed no mercy.
Moreover, there was once when he admitted defeat, they did not hold back and made him bedridden for half a month.
Due to this reason, Guo Lu did not have a good impression of them.
The two white-clad young men who looked exactly the same were the two Mastery Refined Saint Stage disciples in Heaven Palace who were stronger than Guo Lu. They were a pair of twins, and both of them were stronger than Guo Lu.
Once they joined forces, they could even defeat some ordinary powerhouses at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage with the help of the telepathy between the twins.
Due to this reason, they were extremely arrogant.
"Guo Lu, you're really getting worse as you age. Isn't it just a brat who's still wet behind the ears? How embarrassing!"
The white-clad young man with the black mole between his brows, Luo He, who was the younger twin, glanced at Guo Lu disdainfully and sneered.
"It's fine if you're embarrassing yourself, but you actually dragged us into this as well. Due to the fact that you came to a draw with him that day, there are people who suspect that after that brat comes out of the Spirit Pool, both of us might not be a match for him at all!"
The other white-clad young man with the red mole between his brows, Luo Shan, said in a deep voice as he glanced at Guo Lu.
"If you want to prove yourself, why don't you look for Junior Brother Ling Tian to spar? Why are you acting all high and mighty in front of me? "
Guo Lu said nonchalantly.
"Guo Lu, you're seeking death!"
Luo He's expression turned grave as True Origin surged out of his body. It was obvious he wanted to attack.
"Am I wrong?"
Guo Lu smirked. "I admit that I'm inferior to both of you. If both of you want to find a balance with me, I'll accept it. However, that would only make both of you look like cowards who bully the weak and fear the strong!"
Guo Lu did not intentionally lower his voice when he spoke, and it attracted the attention of many Heaven Palace's disciples.
The group of Heaven Palace's disciples instantly surrounded them and looked at Guo Lu and the Luo Brothers with interest.
"Hurmph!"
Luo He's expression turned grave when he saw Guo Lu had purposely lured them over. If he still made a move at this moment, it would really prove Guo Lu's words were true.
A tree needed its bark, and a man needed his face. He, Luo He, could not afford to lose this face!
"Guo Lu, we'll let you know that any one of us brothers is stronger than that brat!"
Luo Shan said with a grave expression.
"Everyone knows how to boast! Why don't you wait until both of you can defeat Junior Brother Ling Tian before you say that? "
The smirk on Guo Lu's face deepened.
At this moment, the group of Heaven Palace's disciples who had surrounded them had roughly figured out what was going on. They began to whisper among themselves. "The Luo Brothers actually want to spar with Ling Tian?"
"Any one of the Luo Brothers is stronger than Guo Lu. However, it's very likely that Ling Tian has already broken through to the peak of the Refined Saint Stage. If it's just one of them, I'm afraid they won't be a match for Ling Tian."
"That's right. The difference between the peak of the Refined Saint Stage and the Mastery Refined Saint Stage is not a joke. If Ling Tian has already broken through to the peak of the Refined Saint Stage, unless the Luo Brothers join forces, they won't be a match for Ling Tian at all."
"You've gone overboard with your words. Saying that Ling Tian has already broken through to the peak of the Refined Saint Stage is merely a guess. Perhaps, he hasn't broken through yet?"
"If he really hasn't broken through, any one of the Luo Brothers will stand a chance."
…
At this moment, Duan Lingtian was, naturally, unaware that he was being targeted by two of the most powerful people among the Mastery Refined Saint Stage disciples in Heaven Palace, a pair of twins.
Outside the steep mountain wall, Duan Lingtian and Wang Fei Xuan soared into the air together as they made their way to the peak.
"Have you notified Liu Jian and Ren Fei?"
Duan Lingtian asked as he looked at Wang Fei Xuan.
"Yes."
