Duan Lingtian's gaze landed on the middle-aged man beside Dongfang Yannian. He also had a white dragon elder token hanging from his waist. Clearly, he was also a white dragon elder of the Tianlong Clan, just like Dongfang Yannian.
As for the old man in front of them, he had an identity token hanging from his waist. The dragon engraved on it was inlaid with a material similar to black jade, making it look like a lifelike black dragon.
"Black Dragon Elder!"
Duan Lingtian's gaze hardened. At the same time, it wasn't hard to guess that this person should be the person in charge of the Tianlong Clan's entrance exam and the Hidden Dragon Competition this time.
Black Dragon Elder, Blue Feather Mountain.
When Duan Lingtian was chatting with Dongfang Yannian at Xue Haichuan's place, he learned of the existence of Blue Feather Mountain. Whether it was Dongfang Yannian, who was in charge of the inner sect disciple entrance exam, or the white dragon elder in charge of the outer sect disciple entrance exam, they could only be considered the second person in charge of the Tianlong Clan's entrance exam and the Hidden Dragon Competition this time.
The first person in charge was this black dragon elder from Blue Feather Mountain.
"It's Elder Dongfang Yannian!"
"That's Elder Hou Jifang, who's in charge of the entrance exam for us outer sect disciples."
… …
After Dongfang Yannian and the other two appeared, they became the focus of everyone's attention. The newly promoted inner and outer sect disciples of the Tianlong Clan all recognized Dongfang Yannian and Hou Jifang.
Hou Jifang was the other white dragon elder standing beside Dongfang Yannian.
"This is … Black Dragon Elder?!"
Very soon, some sharp-eyed people saw the identity token hanging from the waist of the old man in the lead and couldn't help but gasp.
The old man in the lead had a medium build and an ordinary face. His hair was like a waterfall behind his back, and his eyes were calm, without any joy or sorrow.
"Little guys who just entered the sect, let your senior brother tell you … That's Elder Blue Feather Mountain, one of the black dragon elders of our Tianlong Clan. He's a high-level divine emperor!"
A Tianlong Clan inner sect disciple, who had obviously come to join in on the fun at the Hidden Dragon Grand Competition, laughed as he spoke to the group of new inner sect disciples and outer sect disciples beside him.
The Hidden Dragon Competition was only a stage for the Tianlong Clan's new inner sect disciples and outer sect disciples to compete. Most of the tianlong clan disciples weren't very interested in it. Those who came to join in on the fun were basically all tianlong clan inner sect disciples with average strength.
As for the outer sect disciples, unless they were new disciples, they were not allowed near the Flame Dragon Arena.
The Flame Dragon Arena belonged to the inner circle of the Flame Dragon Mountain Range, and the outer sect disciples of the Tianlong Clan could only move around the outer circle of the mountain range. If they trespassed into the inner circle and were discovered by the patrol, they would be severely punished.
It was precisely because of this rule that apart from the new Tianlong Clan disciples participating in the Hidden Dragon Grand Competition, not many other Tianlong Clan inner sect disciples had come.
As for the Tianlong Clan elders, there were even fewer of them.
In total, there were at most a few dozen or close to a hundred people. Compared to the thousands of disciples participating in the Hidden Dragon Grand Competition, as well as the many elders of these new disciples, the number of people here seemed insignificant.
"Elder Black Dragon?!"
"High-Level Divine Emperor?!"
… …
As the old fox inner sect disciple of the Tianlong Clan spoke, the group of new tianlong clan disciples present couldn't help but be shocked.
More than ninety percent of them were seeing a High-Level Divine Emperor for the first time.
Therefore, after learning that the old man in front of them was an inner sect elder of the Tianlong Clan and a High-Level Divine Emperor, their gazes towards the old man once again became incomparably hot.
"The Tianlong Clan is indeed the tianlong Clan. I've just entered the sect, and I'm actually seeing a High-Level Divine Emperor … Am I dreaming?"
"So this is what a High-Level Divine Emperor looks like."
"This is a High-Level Divine Emperor? The one with the highest cultivation among the Divine Emperors? "
"In the Tianlong Clan, Elder White Dragon's status is above that of the inner sect elders … and Elder Black Dragon's status is even higher than Elder White Dragon's!"
"Those who can cultivate to the High-Level Divine Emperor level are basically those who have survived the test of the Heavenly Tribulation that occurs once every thousand years. Their abilities are usually very powerful."
"I wonder if I'll have the chance to become someone like this Elder Blue Feather Mountain in the future after entering the Tianlong Clan. High-Level Divine Emperor, Elder Black Dragon …"
… …
The appearance of Elder Black Dragon Blue Feather Mountain not only caused the originally noisy surroundings of the Fire Dragon Arena to quieten down, but even the occasional voice that came out was filled with heartfelt reverence.
At this time, not only the group of new Tianlong Clan inner and outer sect disciples, but even the higher-ups from the various Divine Emperor level forces and the elders of the new disciples present also looked at Elder Blue Feather Mountain with reverence in their eyes.
"Hua Chunming, leader of the Donghua Clan, greets Elder Blue Feather Mountain."
Near Elder Blue Feather Mountain, Hua Chunming, leader of the Donghua Clan, who was wearing a luxurious robe, bowed slightly to Elder Blue Feather Mountain. Although he was the leader of a clan, Elder Black Dragon of the Tianlong Clan was not only stronger than him, but also had a higher status than him.
Following Hua Chunming's lead, all the higher-ups of the Divine Emperor level forces immediately bowed to Elder Blue Feather Mountain.
As for the others, needless to say.
Only when Elder Blue Feather Mountain raised his hand did the crowd quiet down.
"I won't say any more pleasantries," Elder Blue Feather Mountain said with a lazy tone.
Blue Feather Mountain spoke with an indifferent tone that carried a trace of laziness. "I presume all of you already have some understanding of the rules of the Hidden Dragon Competition, so I won't speak any further."
"Next, I will open the matrix and create ten battle rings. Whoever's name appears on the rings will go in and fight with their opponent.
"Those who are absent for more than ten breaths will be automatically disqualified."
Everyone already knew the rules of the Hidden Dragon Competition three days ago when they went through the procedures to enter the clan.
The first stage of the Hidden Dragon Competition was to determine the strongest hundred among the outer sect disciples. Then, they would join the ranks of the inner sect disciples and continue with the second stage of the Hidden Dragon Competition.
In the end, if someone among the hundred outer sect disciples could enter the top two hundred, they would be promoted to become an inner sect disciple of the Tianlong Clan.
And if there was an inner sect disciple among the bottom hundred, that inner sect disciple would be demoted to become an outer sect disciple of the Tianlong Clan.
Of course, if they were unwilling to become an outer sect disciple of the Tianlong Clan, they could also choose to leave the Tianlong Clan.
The Tianlong Clan would not force this kind of person to stay.
"In the entrance examination three days ago, there were more than three hundred people who successfully passed the inner sect disciple examination … and more than eight hundred people passed the outer sect disciple examination."
Hou Qingning who stood opposite Duan Lingtian muttered. "Over eight hundred people, and the strongest hundred will be determined … The first stage of the Hidden Dragon Competition will probably last for quite some time."
Just as Hou Qingning was muttering in a low voice, the black dragon elder, Blue Feather Mountain, who stood in the sky and had unknowingly waved his hand, causing ten formation discs to fly out and condense into ten areas in the sky, had already spoken in a clear voice. "The Hidden Dragon Competition begins now."
Straightforward and neat!
Not the slightest bit sloppy.
The Hidden Dragon Competition was a rigorous competition in the eyes of Duan Lingtian and the others, but in the eyes of the black dragon elder of the Tianlong Clan, it seemed to be only a game.
Of course, everyone knew clearly in their hearts that this black dragon elder had the confidence to treat the Hidden Dragon Competition as a game.
The ten areas were scattered in the sky above the Flame Dragon Arena, and they were very far apart from each other. Moreover, the surroundings were suffused with different colored faint lights that were extremely distinguishable.
At this moment, two names appeared in each area of the ten areas.
At the same time, Duan Lingtian saw ten figures walk over in the sky from afar, and each of them appeared outside an area and stared fixedly at that area.
Through the identity tokens on the waists of these ten people, it wasn't difficult for Duan Lingtian to discern that any one of these ten people was an inner sect elder of the Tianlong Clan.
Moreover, Kuang Tianzheng, who had come to the Linghu family to kill him in the past, was also an inner sect elder of the Tianlong Clan.
Of course, because Kuang Tianzheng had climbed up the branch of the Tianlong Clan's Vice Sect Leader Xue, his current status in the Tianlong Clan couldn't be compared to by an ordinary inner sect elder.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
…
In the blink of an eye, twenty figures flew out. These people, without exception, all had outer sect disciple identity tokens on their waists.
Moreover, there was a special mark on their identity tokens, which proved that they were new outer sect disciples of the Tianlong Clan and qualified to participate in the Hidden Dragon Competition.
"What? Worried that you'll be eliminated and returned to the outer sect? "
Duan Lingtian looked at Hou Qingning and asked with a smile.
Although Hou Qingning looked very calm on the surface, Duan Lingtian could see a trace of uneasiness in the depths of his eyes.
Once an inner sect disciple ranked in the bottom one hundred in the Hidden Dragon Competition, he would be demoted to an outer sect disciple.
Of course, Duan Lingtian asked this through telepathy and didn't say it out loud.
Hearing this, Hou Qingning looked at Duan Lingtian and smiled awkwardly. He replied through telepathy, "A little …"
"Take it."
Duan Lingtian took a step forward and arrived beside Hou Qingning. Then, with a movement of his left hand, he placed a storage ring in Hou Qingning's hand.
"What's this?"
Hou Qingning was startled.
"Nothing."
Duan Lingtian said indifferently, "It's just a high-grade divine weapon."
"High-grade divine weapon?!"
Hearing Duan Lingtian's words, Hou Qingning's expression instantly changed. In an instant, he felt the hand holding the storage ring become extremely heavy. "Duan Lingtian, this is too precious, I …"
"I'm just lending it to you."
Duan Lingtian was somewhat speechless. "You don't think this is for you, do you? You're dreaming. "
Hou Qingning's originally excited face instantly flushed red and finally became the color of pig liver. After a long while, he finally calmed down and thanked Duan Lingtian. "Although I'm a little disappointed … I still have to thank you for your kind intentions."
At this moment, Hou Qingning didn't stand on ceremony with Duan Lingtian.
Although as far as he was concerned, Duan Ling Tian would most likely possess a high-grade divine weapon, but the Hidden Dragon Competition was extremely humane, and those inner sect elders wouldn't allow inner sect disciples with strong strengths to face each other in advance.
With Duan Lingtian's strength, he didn't need a high-grade divine weapon to easily defeat his opponents in the beginning.
By the time Duan Lingtian encountered a strong opponent and needed a high-grade divine weapon, even if he had one, he would have been eliminated long ago.
On this point, he was still aware of his own limitations.
"You're still disappointed? You're really shameless! "
Duan Lingtian said exasperatedly.
Then, at the same time that Hou Qingning smiled awkwardly, Duan Lingtian's gaze fell on Murong Yinyue and transmitted a sentence to her.
