"Could it be that the Devilseal Tablet has taken me as its master?"
A crazy thought arose in Duan Lingtian's heart, a thought that even he felt was unbelievable.
But when did the Devilseal Tablet take him as its master?
He actually didn't know in the slightest about this.
At this moment, even though Duan Lingtian had already returned to the second-class spectating area where the members of the Darkstone Empire were, the numerous gazes in the surroundings of the Cage Battle Arena still locked onto him and locked onto the Devilseal Tablet that floated by his side.
Even though Duan Lingtian had already obtained the honor of being the first in the Dynasty Martial Competition, the process behind this caused everyone present to be deeply puzzled and even feel it was unbelievable.
To them, everything that had occurred earlier was truly too strange.
The battle between Duan Lingtian and Zi Shang to compete for the honor of being the first in the Dynasty Martial Competition.
At the beginning, Duan Lingtian's secret technique had failed, and he was one-sidedly crushed by Zi Shang who'd executed the secret technique, causing him to be in imminent danger.
Right when everyone thought that Duan Lingtian was about to be defeated, an unexpected event occurred abruptly at the critical moment.
Duan Lingtian withdrew an extremely ordinary looking stone tablet out of thin air. Moreover, it was a broken stone tablet, and it looked as if it was picked up from the roadside.
But it was precisely a stone tablet like this that smashed Zi Shang to the point he was completely helpless.
After he executed the secret technique, even though Zi Shang's strength was formidable, he didn't have the slightest strength to fight back before that stone tablet.
Subsequently, everyone saw that along with the black colored flame brand vanishing between Zi Shang's brows, Zi Shang's secret technique had failed, and the broken stone tablet returned to Duan Lingtian's side along with this.
In the end, Zi Shang who'd suffered quite a heavy injury stood on the spot in a daze.
Right at this moment, Duan Lingtian had easily moved behind Zi Shang before casually raising his hand and slashing out with a chop, directly knocking Zi Shang unconscious and obtaining the first in the Dynasty Martial Competition.
The Darkhan Dynasty's Martial Competition had come to an end.
No matter if it was the process or the outcome, it had exceeded the expectations of everyone.
Originally, everyone was still looking forward to how exciting the final battle would be. Who would have thought that the ending would be so simple, direct, and full of drama?
Some people even thought that Duan Lingtian and Zi Shang had discussed this beforehand and were just putting on a show for them.
Whoosh!
When he saw the unusual actions of the Devilseal Tablet had attracted more and more gazes, Duan Lingtian thought to himself and put the Devilseal Tablet away in his Spatial Ring.
"Duan Lingtian, congratulations!"
The Prince of Yong gazed at Duan Lingtian, his face brimming with an excited smile, somewhat forgetting himself.
Even though he was the number one expert in the Darkstone Empire and was usually extremely solemn before others, but when he saw Duan Lingtian obtaining the first in the Dynasty Martial Competition and obtaining extremely great honor for the Darkstone Empire, he'd instead tossed his identity to the back of his mind.
"You really live up to that saying … As long as it's gold, no matter where it goes, it will always shine and not be buried."
Su Li said to Duan Lingtian.
"Brother Ling Tian, looks like I've still underestimated you in the past."
Xiang Ying sighed.
Besides Long Yun, the other young geniuses of the Darkstone Empire congratulated Duan Lingtian one by one at this moment.
Long Yun stared at Duan Lingtian with a flickering gaze, and it was unknown what he was thinking about.
"The curtains to our Darkhan Dynasty's Martial Competition has come to an end … Ten young geniuses have obtained the qualifications to participate in the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties one year from now!"
In the sky above the Cage Battle Arena, one of the old men announced with a loud voice.
Subsequently, another old man looked at the Emperor of the Darkhan Dynasty. "Now, let us invite the most respected Emperor of our Darkhan Dynasty to speak."
Whoosh!
At practically the instant the old man finished speaking, the Emperor had already appeared by his side, and he looked at the surroundings as he said slowly, "The Dynasty Martial Competition today has given me an extremely great pleasant surprise! The ten young geniuses that obtained the qualifications to participate in the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties, especially the few that are ranked at the top, have even caused me to be extremely shocked. "
"I won't say anything else … Half a year from now, I invite the ten young geniuses to gather at the Imperial Palace. At that time, I'll personally lead the group to head to the northern desert and witness the competition between the ten great young geniuses of my Darkhan Dynasty and the young geniuses of the other nine Dynasties!"
After he finished speaking, the Emperor's palanquin with eight carriers appeared in the sky above the Cage Battle Arena.
After a short moment, the Emperor walked into the palanquin and vanished before the eyes of everyone.
On the other hand, the remaining members of the Imperial Family left one by one.
"Duan Lingtian, let me see if you'll still be able to protect the Devilseal Tablet in your possession when the Imperial Family arouses interest in it."
Zi Shang glanced coldly at Duan Lingtian before leaving, and then he walked shoulder to shoulder with Zi Yan and left behind the black clothed old man.
As soon as the members of the Imperial Family left, many people left along with them.
At the same time, Duan Lingtian noticed that many people were heading towards the spectating area he was at, and their targets had locked onto the group of people from the Darkstone Empire.
"Su Li, I'll be leaving first."
When he saw the situation wasn't right, Duan Lingtian bid his farewells to Su Li before directly fleeing.
Swoosh!
Su Li hadn't even reacted when Duan Lingtian had already left the second-class spectating area and ascended the first-class spectating area that belonged to the Feng Clan.
On the first-class spectating area of the Feng Clan, the Feng Clan's Patriarch and the other higher-ups weren't present, and only Feng Wu Dao, Feng Tianwu, and Elder Kong remained.
"Fortunately, I ran quickly."
When he saw the group of people from the Darkstone Empire including King Yong being surrounded by many enthusiastic people, Duan Lingtian felt slightly fortunate.
Even though some people had noticed that Duan Lingtian had left, yet not a single person dared follow him.
The first-class spectating area wasn't a place that just anyone could ascend.
"Brother Duan, I never imagined that there would be a time when you fled in defeat."
Elder Kong teased.
Duan Lingtian was slightly embarrassed, and then he looked at the red clothed young woman that stood by Feng Wu Dao's side, and his gaze lit up. "Tianwu, how much did you earn?"
Feng Tianwu said with a smile, "Elder Brother Duan, it's better if you look for yourself."
Feng Tianwu said as she passed a Spatial Ring to Duan Lingtian.
Duan Lingtian dripped a drop of blood on the Spatial Ring to identify it, and with a command in his heart, he looked inside. With a single glance, he saw low grade spirit stones that were piled up like a mountain.
"These low grade spirit stones … There's at least a little over 100,000, right?"
Because the reward for the first in the Dynasty Martial Competition was 50,000 low grade spirit stones, and the spirit stones before him were more than twice the amount of 50,000 low grade spirit stones.
So Duan Lingtian was able to easily guess the amount.
"More than a hundred and seven thousand."
Feng Tianwu smiled as she spoke.
"So many!"
Duan Lingtian was surprised, and then he seemed to have thought of something. With a raise of his hand, he withdrew the Spatial Ring he obtained as the reward for the first in the Dynasty Martial Competition and passed it to Feng Tianwu. "Tianwu, I never imagined that you'd help me earn so much … Take these 50,000 low grade spirit stones."
But Feng Tianwu didn't receive it and directly refused. "Elder Brother Duan, I've said it since long ago. No matter how many spirit stones you earned, they're all yours … I won't take them."
Duan Lingtian laughed bitterly. "But I never imagined that I'd be able to earn so much … Just take it. Even if you've taken these 50,000 low grade spirit stones, I've still earned an additional 50,000 plus spirit stones. "
Originally, after his soul skill, Thousand Illusions, was useless in the final battle with Zi Shang, Duan Lingtian didn't hold onto any hope.
At that time, he'd once thought of the pile of low grade spirit stones he'd placed at Feng Tianwu's place, and he felt that those spirit stones would surely be wasted.
But never had he imagined that fate would play an enormous joke on him.
As soon as the Devilseal Tablet appeared, it directly suppressed Zi Shang and even heavily injured Zi Shang, allowing him to turn defeat into victory.
"Elder Brother Duan, I don't lack spirit stones … Moreover, my father even took advantage of you."
Feng Tianwu shook her head firmly, and as she finished speaking, she couldn't help but laugh.
"Hmm?"
Duan Lingtian had a puzzled expression.
"Elder Brother Duan, you still don't know, right … Your odds for the battle between you and Zi Shang was 1: 3, and my father bet 100,000 low grade spirit stones on you."
Feng Tianwu smiled as she spoke.
Betting 100,000 low grade spirit stones at a odds of 1: 3, and earning an extra 300,000 low grade spirit stones.
Duan Lingtian's face froze when he heard this, and then he cursed. "Who set this odds? Aren't they looking down on me too much? "
"Even though I don't know who set the odds, but I can be sure that fellow is surely regretting it to death now."
Elder Kong smiled, and then he shook his head and sighed. "It's the Eldest Young Master who has the courage to directly bet 100,000 low grade spirit stones on Brother Duan … I only bet 10,000 spirit stones, if I knew earlier, I would have bet the other 20,000 spirit stones as well."
As he finished speaking, Elder Kong was slightly regretful.
"Grandpa Kong, you still don't believe Elder Brother Duan?"
Feng Tianwu angrily rolled her eyes at Elder Kong, and then she held Feng Wu Dao's arm and smiled. "It's still Father who has confidence in Elder Brother Duan."
"I was already prepared to throw away the hundred thousand low-grade primordial stones."
But Feng Wu Dao's words caused the smile on Feng Tianwu's beautiful face to completely freeze.
In next to no time, Feng Tianwu changed the topic, and her beautiful eyes flickered with curiosity as she looked at Duan Lingtian and asked. "Elder Brother Duan, what's that broken stone tablet you took out earlier? It doesn't seem to be a spirit weapon? "
Before Duan Lingtian could speak, Feng Wu Dao said, "We'll talk about it when we get back."
Meanwhile, Feng Tianwu noticed that many people on the other seven first-class spectating areas were staring at them with burning gazes, or more precisely speaking, they were staring at Duan Lingtian.
Duan Lingtian and Feng Wu Dao's group of three soared into the sky and headed towards the Feng Clan Estate.
When they saw Duan Lingtian's figure vanish before their eyes, the tranquil atmosphere on the other seven first-class spectating areas was directly broken.
"This son-in-law of Lord Wu Dao is truly extraordinary!"
"Yeah, that Duan Lingtian looks to be around the age of 25, and his true age is surely not more than 30 … Suppressing the group of young geniuses of our Darkhan Dynasty at such an age and obtaining the honor of first in the Dynasty Martial Competition is truly difficult to come by!"
"In my opinion, his first in the Dynasty Martial Competition was obtained by relying on that mysterious stone tablet … Otherwise, he wouldn't be a match for Zi Shang."
"I wonder what that stone tablet is, it's actually so terrifying."
