Since Duan Ling Tian and Feng Wu Ji Guang were not mortal enemies, the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom's Imperial Family had decided to withdraw most of his forces at the critical moment.
Bang!
For this reason, Feng Wu Ji Guang was only severely injured when he slammed into the wall of Xu Rong Palace. He was not killed by Duan Lingtian.
Even so, Feng Wu Ji Guang had lost the ability to fight. He supported himself against the wall for a long time before he managed to stand up.
"Thank … Thank you for showing mercy."
Feng Wu Ji Guang struggled to stand up. When he looked at Duan Lingtian again, there was no hatred in his eyes. Instead, a hint of gratitude could be seen in his eyes. He was grateful that Duan Lingtian had spared his life.
Earlier, Duan Lingtian's gigantic sword was so domineering that he felt suffocated.
At that moment, he was filled with despair. He thought he was going to die.
He did not expect Duan Lingtian would retract most of his forces at the critical moment, saving his life.
After the suffocating feeling of being on the brink of death, Feng Wu Ji Guang no longer resented Duan Lingtian. Instead, he felt grateful.
"Alright."
Duan Lingtian nodded indifferently at Feng Wu Ji Guang. Then, he looked at the young powerhouses on the stone platform who were younger than 100 years old. These young powerhouses were the cream of the crop.
When Duan Ling Tian looked at them, the group of young powerhouses regained their senses from the earlier shock.
Their expressions changed when they saw the battle intent in Duan Lingtian's eyes. They turned around and jumped off the stone platform in unison.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
…
The sound of the wind reverberated in the main hall of Xu Rong Palace. In just a blink of an eye, the group of people on the stone platform left the stone platform as fast as they could.
It was as though there was a ferocious beast on the stone platform that terrified them.
In their eyes, Duan Lingtian was no different from a ferocious beast.
A Great Overarching Golden Celestial who was not even 100 years old.
Such an existence was simply not someone they could provoke!
Didn't they see how Feng Wu Ji Guang, a Violet Sun Golden Immortal, was sent flying with a single blow?
Moreover, from the beginning until the end, the other party didn't seem to have used any Immortal Artifacts.
The strongest among them was only an Indigo Sun Gold Immortal. Even if all of them attacked together, they would not be a match for this Perfected Gold Immortal who was not even 100 years old. Instead of humiliating themselves, they might as well admit defeat.
All of a sudden, Duan Lingtian was the only one left on the huge stone platform in the middle of Xu Rong Palace.
He was dressed in purple, had a handsome appearance, and had an outstanding temperament.
While Duan Lingtian stood there and became the focus of everyone's attention, the eyes of the young ladies from the various Great King's Mansions who had come this time repeatedly revealed extraordinary splendor. Every one of them looked at Duan Lingtian with burning gazes.
Handsome men with outstanding temperament were always the most attractive.
Especially when this was a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal who was not even a hundred years old!
"Who is he?"
"Since when did such a person appear in the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom?"
"A Great Overarching Golden Immortal who's not even 100 years old … How deep is he that we didn't hear anything about him?"
…
After a moment of silence, a commotion broke out in the main hall of Xu Rong Palace.
The people from the various Great King's Mansions and some of the princes whispered among themselves. They were shocked and curious about Duan Lingtian, a Great Overarching Golden Immortal who was not even 100 years old, who had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
After all, a Great Overarching Golden Immortal who was not even 100 years old could not be easily hidden in the Wasteland, let alone in the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom. The only exception was if he never revealed his strength in front of others.
"It seems like he's going to be the first prince in the selection this time."
"He's one of the thirteenth prince's men … I didn't expect the thirteenth prince to be the first prince in the selection this time."
"That's right. I'm afraid the Grand Prestige Mansion is the most regretful one this time. They thought they'd be able to help the seventh prince win the selection by lending Feng Wu Ji Guang to him. Who knew a Great Overarching Golden Immortal who's not even 100 years old would appear out of nowhere? "
"The seventh prince must be so angry that he's about to vomit blood, right?"
…
As the crowd discussed among themselves, their gazes simultaneously landed on the Seventh Prince, Long Qing Yun.
Just as they had said, Long Qing Yun was so angry that he was about to vomit blood.
He had thought he would definitely win the selection this time. He did not expect a Great Overarching Golden Immortal who was not even 100 years old would appear out of nowhere. Moreover, this Great Overarching Golden Immortal was one of his thirteenth brother's men. Long Qing Yun did not dare to offend this person.
"He must have a powerful sect backing him up. However, he still participated in the selection. This means he wants to help thirteenth brother win the selection. He might not participate in the Grand Contest of the Wasteland. Even if he does, he'll definitely be eliminated. "
Long Qing Yun was certain Duan Lingtian only wanted to help thirteenth prince win the selection and had no intention of participating in the Grand Contest of the Wasteland.
"Father!"
Since Long Qing Yun was afraid of Duan Lingtian, he did not dare to offend Duan Lingtian. Therefore, he sent a Voice Transmission to his father, Long Dong Ping, the Emperor of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom.
"If he has no intention of participating in the Grand Contest of the Wasteland, he won't be of any help to the Imperial family of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom even if he wins the selection."
"Father, are you really going to reward thirteenth brother with a Duke Grade Celestial Weapon?"
Long Qingyun's words struck a chord in Long Dongping's heart, causing his expression to darken slightly.
"Young man."
After a while, Long Dong Ping looked at Duan Lingtian and said, "Duan Lingtian, young man."
Everyone shifted their attention to Long Dong Ping, the Emperor of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom.
"Hm?"
Duan Lingtian looked at Long Dong Ping as well.
"The Imperial family of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom is holding a selection today to select the participants for the Grand Contest of the Wasteland … Apart from that, the participants will have to do their best in the Grand Contest of the Wasteland."
Long Dong Ping looked at Duan Lingtian and said in a clear voice.
When he reached the end of his sentence, he looked at Duan Ling Tian meaningfully and asked, "Can you do this?"
"Yes."
Duan Lingtian nodded slightly.
Long Dong Ping did not expect Duan Lingtian would agree so readily. He was stunned for a moment before he continued to say, "Apart from that, the participants will have to join one of the Three Major Celestial Sects if they have a good ranking in the Grand Contest of the Wasteland."
"This … Can you do it?"
Long Dong Ping asked again.
"What? Your Majesty, are you suspecting that I only want to help the thirteenth prince win the Grand Contest of the Wasteland and have no intention of joining the Three Major Celestial Sects of the Wasteland? "
Duan Lingtian asked as he looked at Long Dong Ping.
"That's right."
Long Dong Ping did not expect Duan Lingtian to speak his mind so bluntly. However, since Duan Lingtian had said it out loud, he was not afraid to admit it. He nodded and said, "After all, I heard that you have an extraordinary background. It's very likely that you already have a sect."
"Based on Your Majesty's words … It seems like you know him?"
"Your Majesty already knows about him?"
"What … What's going on? How come Your Majesty knows about him, but we didn't hear anything about him? "
…
Upon hearing the conversation between Long Dong Ping and Duan Lingtian, the people from the various mansions present on the scene were stunned.
After a while, the people from the various mansions learned about Duan Lingtian's incident in the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom in the past year. Realization dawned on them.
When they looked at Duan Lingtian again, a hint of dread could be seen in their eyes.
As soon as he arrived at the capital of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom, he had injured the fourth miss of the Zhou clan, Zhou Shu Dong. The woman beside him had even killed an Earth Realm Great Overarching Golden Celestial of the Zhou clan.
After that, the Fourth Prince came to find him, but because he had some misgivings, he did not dare to touch him.
Later on, the Third Miss of the Zhou Clan, Zhou Shu Qiu, returned. Although she went to look for him, she didn't touch him. Instead, she asked her younger sister, Zhou Shu Dong, to apologize to him …
The first two matters were nothing.
However, the final matter was truly shocking.
The Third Miss of the Zhou Clan, Zhou Shu Qiu, was someone whom even the Emperor of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom feared. Although Zhou Shu Qiu was his niece, his attitude toward Zhou Shu Qiu was more like a subordinate flattering a superior.
This could be seen from his attitude towards her just now.
"Even the Third Miss of the Zhou Clan doesn't dare to touch him?"
"With the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect's intelligence network, they must have found out about him. The fact that the Third Miss of the Zhou Clan doesn't dare to touch him shows that he has an extraordinary background. He must have a powerful sect or clan backing him up."
"I think so too."
"If that's the case, it's not convenient for him to join the Three Major Celestial Sects of the Wasteland even if he participated in the Grand Contest of the Wasteland, right?"
"That's not necessarily the case. However, if he's from a powerful sect, it's definitely inconvenient for him to join one of the Three Major Celestial Sects of the Wasteland. However, if he's from a powerful clan, it's fine for him to join one of the Three Major Celestial Sects of the Wasteland. "
"That's right. After all, there's a fundamental difference between a sect and a clan. "
…
In Xu Rong Palace. After the people from the various Mansions learned about what had happened to Duan Lingtian in the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom, they began to discuss among themselves.
They speculated that Duan Lingtian was from a powerful clan.
Even the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect did not dare to offend that clan.
Otherwise, why would Zhou Shu Qiu, the Third Miss of the Zhou Clan, be so polite to him?
"Sister … Is he really from a powerful clan?"
Hearing the whispers of the crowd, Zhou Family's Fourth Young Miss Zhou Shudong couldn't help but look at Zhou Family's Third Young Miss Zhou Shuqiu and asked.
"Sort of."
Zhou Shu Qiu nodded indifferently.
What else could she say at this moment?
Could she say that she did not know anything?
