"Vice Fort Master Feng!"
In next to no time, the representatives of the various Dynasties saw that after the Vice Fort Master of Skywolf Fort, Ning Can, the other Vice Fort Master of Skywolf Fort, Feng Wei, had followed him out.
It wasn't just that, there was another person behind Feng Wei.
"It's him!"
"He seems to be a young genius of the Darkhan Dynasty as well?"
"My god! The first two people to come out of the second round of the selections are actually members of the Darkhan Dynasty! "
…
Instantly, the representatives of the other nine Dynasties were in an uproar, and all of them stared fixedly at Zi Shang as if they wanted to discern something from Zi Shang.
"Hahahaha … Good, good!"
The Darkhan Dynasty's Emperor laughed heartily, and his laughter was filled with delight. Never had he imagined that after Duan Lingtian, the second person to come out of the Illusory Crypt would be Zi Shang.
Even though Zi Shang wasn't related by blood to the Darkhan Dynasty's Imperial Family, he was the personal disciple of his Imperial Uncle, Bai Nan Yin.
Most importantly, Zi Shang was representing the Darkhan Dynasty to participate in the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties.
Bai Nan Yin's eyes emitted bright lights as his body trembled slightly from excitement. Never had he imagined that his disciple would actually be the second to walk out of the Illusory Crypt.
After Zi Shang came out, he couldn't help but reveal slight complacency when he noticed the numerous gazes converging onto him.
But when his gaze saw the violet clothed young man that sat cross-legged in the distant sky and cultivated, his pupils couldn't help but constrict abruptly, and cold lights flickered within them.
"Duan Lingtian!"
Zi Shang gnashed his teeth slightly as he stared at Duan Lingtian from afar.
Even though obtaining the number 2 token caused Zi Shang to be rather delighted, but when he thought of how the person that obtained the number 1 token was Duan Lingtian, he felt a wave of displeasure in his heart.
No matter who surpassed him, he wasn't willing to be surpassed by Duan Lingtian!
To him, being surpassed by Duan Lingtian was a humiliation, a humiliation that was impossible to wash away!
"Zi Shang, have you obtained the number 2 token?"
The Darkhan Dynasty's Emperor and Zi Shang's Master, Bai Nan Yin, asked Zi Shang via voice transmission at practically the exact same time.
"Yes."
Zi Shang flew out and arrived beside the two in a moment. He nodded slightly.
When the two saw this, they immediately beamed with joy.
"Uncle, you've accepted a good disciple …"
The Darkhan Dynasty's Emperor smiled as he looked at Bai Nan Yin.
Bai Nan Yin laughed heartily. He was so happy that his eyes narrowed. To have such a direct disciple in this life, what more could he ask for?!
"Zi Shang, I've decided to confer upon your father the title of Darkhan Dynasty's King with a different surname. Moreover, I'll bring your Zi Clan to the Capital of my Darkhan Dynasty. What do you think?"
The Darkhan Dynasty's Emperor said to Zi Shang.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Zi Shang nodded faintly and remained calm.
"I hope that when your strength reaches the heavens in the future, you won't forget about my Darkhan Dynasty."
The Emperor smiled.
"Yes."
Zi Shang nodded again.
Suddenly.
"Purple Decease!"
The gaze of Ning Can that was the first to soar into the sky descended onto Zi Shang, and then he smiled amiably. "Are you willing to take me as your master and become my personal disciple?"
After failing to take a disciple yesterday, Ning Can had once again taken the initiative to take a disciple.
The target this time was still a young genius of the Darkhan Dynasty, yet it wasn't Duan Lingtian but Zi Shang!
Whoosh!
Ning Can's words of taking a disciple drew the gazes of all the representatives of the ten Dynasties, and most of them revealed envious expressions as they looked at Zi Shang.
They knew that because Zi Shang was the second to walk out of the Illusory Crypt, he'd obtained sufficient importance from Ning Can.
"He wouldn't be like Duan Lingtian and directly refuse Vice Fort Master Ning, right?"
"He probably won't …"
"He and Duan Lingtian are both young geniuses of the Darkhan Dynasty. He wouldn't really make the same decision as Duan Lingtian, right?"
…
Many representatives discussed animatedly.
"Zi Shang, quickly agree!"
The eyes of the Darkhan Dynasty's Emperor and Bai Nan Yin lit up when they heard Ning Can, and they hurriedly urged Zi Shang.
They were worried that Zi Shang would be hot-headed and refuse Vice Fort Master Ning like Duan Lingtian!
As far as they were concerned, this was a good opportunity for the Darkhan Dynasty to form a relationship with the Skywolf Fort, and perhaps it would even allow the Darkhan Dynasty to obtain the protection of the Skywolf Fort because of this.
When a man achieves the Dao, even his friends and family can ascend to the heavens!
Nothing was better than this.
"I agree."
Zi Shang flew out and knelt before Ning Can before kowtowing to take Ning Can as his master, and he seemed to be respectful and humble.
Even though Zi Shang had the incomplete soul of an expert that was suspected to be Emperor Wu within his body, he didn't possess a lofty and unyielding character like Duan Lingtian.
So long as it was something of value to him, he wouldn't let go of it.
As for taking a master, it was only a formality to him.
Even if Ning Can became his master, once a conflict of interest arose between them in the future, he wouldn't hold back because Ning Can was his master, and he would only think of a way to kill Ning Can at the first possible moment!
Yes, he heard this.
His master was only a stepping stone, an inconspicuous stepping stone on his path to the future.
Of course, Ning Can didn't know what Zi Shang was thinking in his heart, otherwise, he would probably be angered to the point of killing Zi Shang with a single strike!
"Good … Good!"
Ning Can laughed heartily, and then he asked. "What Concept have you comprehended?"
When Ning Can asked this, the representatives of the various Dynasties knew what he wanted to do next, and all of them revealed envious gazes as they looked at Zi Shang.
Amongst them included the Darkhan Dynasty's Emperor and Bai Nan Yin.
They knew that Ning Can intended to reward Zi Shang with a soul fragment.
"Master, I've comprehended the two Concepts of Wind and Fire."
Zi Shang's gaze flickered, and even his breathing became slightly hurried.
Even though the incomplete soul of an expert was concealed within his body.
But besides guiding him to cultivate and passing down some techniques to swiftly comprehend Concept to him, that expert was unable to give him anything material.
For example, high grade spirit weapons, spirit herbs, and Concept Fragments were all things that the expert was unable to give him.
As far as Zi Shang was concerned, so long as he obtained a Concept Fragment and combined it with the technique of comprehending Concept that Elder Ghost passed down to him, his Concept would surely improve by leaps and bounds!
"Master just happens to have an eighth level Fire Concept Fragment in his possession, I'll give it to you … There's also this sixth level Wind Concept Fragment."
With a raise of his hand, a red and green fragment flashed out, and it arrived in Zi Shang's hand in a short moment.
"Eighth level Fire Concept Fragment!"
Zi Shang's eyes lit up as he never imagined that the eighth level Fire Concept Fragment that belonged to Ning Can that he heard from Lu Yong yesterday would so easily arrive in his possession.
Besides that, there was also a sixth level Wind Concept Fragment!
At this moment, including the representatives of the Darkhan Dynasty, the representatives of the other nine Dynasties were shocked.
"Eighth level Fire Concept Fragment? Sixth level Wind Concept Fragment? Vice Fort Master Ning is so generous! "
"When compared to Zi Shang's, the gains of the Darming Dynasty's Lu Yong yesterday are simply like the difference between the heavens and the earth!"
…
The representatives of the various Dynasties exclaimed with admiration.
In next to no time, they shut their mouths because they noticed that Feng Wei's fierce gaze was flashing past them one by one.
Only now did they recall that speaking like this was undoubtedly indirectly showing that Vice Fort Master Feng was stingy, and they instantly shut their mouths and didn't dare speak another word.
"Junior Brother Zi Shang, we're Senior Brothers in the future."
Feng Wei looked at Zi Shang and greeted him with a smile.
"Senior Brother Feng Wei."
Zi Shang returned the greeting with a smile, and at the same time, he glanced complacently at Duan Lingtian who sat cross-legged in the distant sky, and he seemed as if he was flaunting his current noble identity.
But unfortunately, Duan Lingtian was cultivating and utterly didn't open his eyes to look at Zi Shang, not even a single glance.
"Congratulations to Vice Fort Master Ning for obtaining an outstanding disciple!"
"Congratulations, Vice Fort Master Ning!"
…
Instantly, besides Sword 13, Saber 5, Feng Wu Dao, and Duan Lingtian who sat cross-legged and cultivated, the group of people in the sky above the combat arena congratulated Ning Can successively.
Ning Can's face was filled with smiles, and his gaze quickly descended onto the Darkhan Dynasty's Emperor. "At the bottom of it all, it's all thanks to your Darkhan Dynasty that Zi Shang and I have the fate of being master and disciple … Take these three Soul Fragments as a gift of thanks."
As soon as Ning Can finished speaking, three Concept Fragments appeared in his hand, and he tossed them to the Darkhan Dynasty's Emperor.
"Thank you, Vice Fort Master Ning!"
The Darkhan Dynasty's Emperor stretched out his hand to receive the three Concept Fragments, and he was extremely excited. At the same time, he satisfactorily enjoyed the numerous gazes that were filled with envy and jealousy from the surroundings.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, a gust of violent wind swept over abruptly, and it blew to the point the clothes of everyone in the sky above the combat arena fluttered with the wind, causing many people to look over.
"Where's the wind coming from?"
This violent wind came strangely, and many people looked towards the direction the violent wind blew from.
A violet clothed young man sat cross-legged there, and the violet clothed young man's body was completely coiled by strands of material Wind Concept.
"Second level Intermediate Wind Concept!"
The phenomenon of the heavens and the earth in the sky caused many people to exclaim in a low voice.
At this moment, 30 lifelike ancient horned dragon silhouettes coiled down from the sky above the violet clothed young man.
"Duan Lingtian!"
Zi Shang looked over as well, and he gnashed his teeth with hatred.
The violet clothed young man was precisely Duan Lingtian, and he'd just comprehended second level Intermediate Wind Concept.
Along with the material Wind Concept dispersing around his body, Duan Lingtian didn't have the slightest intention of waking up, and he continued to close his eyes and sit cross-legged in the sky as he cultivated.
"What a kid!"
Feng Wu Dao's eyes lit up. He knew of Duan Lingtian's advancement in Wind Concept.
But never had he imagined that Duan Lingtian would break through in such a short period of time.
"Comprehending second level Void Interpretation Concept at the mere age of 28 … This Duan Lingtian's comprehension ability can be said to be monstrous!"
A representative from an unknown Dynasty sighed.
His words obtained the agreement of many people.
"Hmph!"
Ning Can grunted with a voice that only he could hear, and his gaze that was icy cold like a blade swept towards Duan Lingtian.
If it wasn't for him being afraid of losing his status, if it wasn't for him being afraid of Sword 13, he would wish for nothing more than to directly make a move and hack this kid that caused him to lose face completely yesterday into a thousand pieces!
"Duan Lingtian, even if you're able to luckily survive the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties this time, you won't be able to jump around for long after it ends."
