"I'll accompany you until the end!"
After Duan Lingtian received the little monk's reply, he replied unhurriedly.
Earlier, Duan Lingtian wasn't afraid in the slightest when facing the little monk's challenge.
Now, Duan Lingtian who'd successively broken through two levels and had a great increase in strength was naturally even more unafraid.
It was even to the extent that so long as this little monk wasn't an Inscription Master, then merely relying on his cultivation at the sixth level of the Void Interpretation Stage was utterly incapable of resisting the soul skill, Thousand Illusions, that he executed now.
Unless the little monk had consumed a special spirit fruit that was capable of improving the soul, or in other words, Spiritual Force.
So long as the little monk's Spiritual Force was at the sixth level of the Void Interpretation Stage, and so long as the little monk wasn't an Inscription Master, then once the little monk fell into the illusory space constructed by his soul skill, the little monk would be a lamb waiting to be slaughtered before him.
"Duan Lingtian, congratulations."
After Sword 13 and Saber 5 nodded and smiled to Duan Lingtian, they soared into the sky and gathered together with the two Vice Fort Masters of Skywolf Fort, the two middle aged monks of Empyrean Temple, and the Sect Master of the Emotion Severing Sect, Pei An.
The higher-ups of the four great powers of the Foreign Lands were gathered together.
"I originally thought that Duan Lingtian was about to lose, yet who knew that things would turn around and he would actually defeat Qi Feng and obtain the first in the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties!"
Someone couldn't help but exclaim with shock.
Meanwhile, Duan Lingtian had become the center of attention as well.
The first in the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties!
What sort of honor was this?
"Zhang Yan, I truly never imagined that I would be able to see you here … Nor did I imagine that you'd actually join the Emotion Severing Sect that isn't inferior to Skywolf Fort and even become the personal disciple of the Sect Master of the Emotion Severing Sect."
Duan Lingtian flew up to arrive by the side of Zhang Yan who stood alone in the sky, and he took the initiative to greet Zhang Yan.
All those years ago, even though there was some conflict between him and Zhang Yan, it couldn't be considered to be a deep enmity.
Since people from the same Imperial Kingdom were able to meet in the Foreign Lands, it was sufficient to show their fate.
"You're not bad as well. You were able to successively break through two levels under such dangerous circumstances and break through to the fourth level of the Void Interpretation Stage in one go! Moreover, the sword you used to shatter Qi Feng's arrow isn't simple, is it? "
Zhang Yan stared deeply at Duan Lingtian, his face still expressionless.
The smile on Duan Lingtian's face completely froze when Zhang Yan was halfway through his words. He only recovered after a long while. He took a deep breath and asked, "Was it your master who saw through it?"
Zhang Yan nodded.
"Looks like your master is only half a step away from the Martial Monarch Stage."
Duan Lingtian smiled bitterly.
He never imagined that Zhang Yan's master would be so abnormal. Not only was he able to discern that he had broken through to the fourth level of the Void Interpretation Stage when the Heaven and Earth Phenomenon had yet to take form, he was even able to discern that the sword he used at that time was not simple.
The sword he used at that time was the Quasi Royal Grade Spirit Sword. Naturally, it was not simple.
"You can even see that?"
It was rare for Zhang Yan's stern face to be moved.
"This isn't difficult to guess."
Duan Lingtian shook his head. His mind had fused with the memories of Samsara Emperor Wu's two lifetimes, so it wasn't difficult to deduce and guess some things.
Even a ninth level Void Transformation Stage martial artist like Sword 13 was unable to discern the cultivation he revealed under the circumstances that the Heaven and Earth Phenomenon hadn't taken form.
Only an expert that was half a step into the Martial Monarch Stage or an expert that had stepped into the Martial Monarch Stage or above would be able to discern it.
It was obviously impossible for Zhang Yan's master to be at the Martial Monarch Stage.
If Zhang Yan's master was at the Martial Monarch Stage, then once he made an appearance, no matter if it was the two great Vice Fort Masters of Skywolf Fort or the Blade Sect's Sword 13 and Saber 5, they would probably not dare speak loudly before him.
Moreover, Skywolf Fort and Blade Sect were only third-rate powers in the Foreign Lands.
Since the Emotion Severing Sect was together with these two sects, then it would presumably not be strong and would surely be a third-rate power as well.
There were no Martial Monarch Stage experts in the Foreign Lands' third-rate powers.
A power that possessed a Martial Monarch Stage expert, even if it was only a Martial Monarch Stage expert, could be considered to be a second-rate power in the Foreign Lands, and it was far from something a third-rate power could compare to.
It could be said that a Martial Monarch Stage expert was sufficient to sweep through an entire third-rate power.
The strength of a Martial Monarch Stage expert was obvious.
"Zhang Yan, why did you go to the Emotion Severing Sect? I heard from Senior Sword that your Emotion Severing Sect isn't an ordinary sect, and only people that have severed their emotions are able to do well there. "
Duan Lingtian asked curiously. "You seem to be doing well there, and you've even become the personal disciple of the Emotion Severing Sect's Master … Could it be that you've severed your emotions as well? You … Didn't you like Zi Yan? "
Even though it had been a few years, Duan Lingtian clearly remembered Zhang Yan's persistence towards Zi Yan all those years ago.
"I'm me, she's her, and I don't have any relationship with her anymore."
Zhang Yan spoke indifferently, and his tone didn't contain any emotions.
"What?!"
Zhang Yan's reaction caused Duan Lingtian to be extremely surprised. "Zhang Yan, could it be that something has happened between the two of you? Even until now, I still remember … You stood up for her when we fought for the first time all those years ago! After that, you went against me at every turn because of her as well. "
"If you've come to look for me for the sake of discussing her, then you should return. If you've come to catch up with me, then I welcome you. "
Zhang Yan continued.
"Looks like you've really changed."
Duan Lingtian shook his head and sighed. He still remembered that Zhang Yan had looked at him with a hostile gaze all those years ago, and especially before Zi Yan, Zhang Yan wished for nothing more than to slice him into pieces.
But now, even though Zhang Yan couldn't be considered to be friendly to him, he didn't reject him like he did in the past.
"No matter what, I have to congratulate you for having such good fortune … As members of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom as well, being able to meet in the Foreign Lands can be considered to be fate."
Duan Lingtian smiled lightly as he spoke. Zhang Yan didn't have any hostility towards him, so he naturally wouldn't bear a grudge over the little conflict from all those years ago.
He'd always been one that didn't offend others if they didn't offend him!
In this world, having another friend was better than having another enemy.
"Thank you."
Even though Zhang Yan still had an expressionless face, yet a trace of bright light flashed past his eyes, and he'd obviously approved of Duan Lingtian's words.
In the distance, the higher-ups of Skywolf Fort, Blade Sect, Empyrean Temple, and Emotion Severing Sect were gathered together.
"Sword 13, Hui Ming, Pei An … I know the objective of all of you coming here this time is none other than the intention of sharing a share of the profits with my Skywolf Fort. Since all of you have come, my Skywolf Fort will naturally not monopolize the profits. "
Ning Can went straight to the point. "But all of you must contribute a portion of the rewards distributed to the young geniuses ranked in the top 10 of the Dynasties during the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties this time!"
"Of course."
Sword 13 nodded and was the first to agree.
"I have no objections."
Hui Ming pressed his palms together as he spoke.
"Alright."
Pei An had an expressionless face as he replied indifferently.
Not long after, the higher-ups of the four great powers of the Foreign Lands gathered the various rewards for the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties this time, whereas, Ning Can's expression eased up slightly.
In this way, his Skywolf Fort wouldn't suffer a loss.
Subsequently, it was the distribution of the rewards.
"Five young geniuses from the Darkhan Dynasty are ranked in the top 10 of the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties this time, and they'll be able to obtain 10 Concept Fragments, 10 grade three spirit weapons, and 10 bottles of grade three Life Recovery Pills."
The Vice Fort Master of Skywolf Fort, Ning Can, who stood at the center of the sky above the combat arena and had become the center of attention, spoke out slowly.
"Thank you, Vice Fort Master Ning!"
After the Darkhan Dynasty's Emperor received his rewards, he hurriedly thanked Ning Can with a smile on his face.
On the other hand, the representatives of the other nine Dynasties revealed envious expressions as they looked at the Darkhan Dynasty's Emperor, and some of their eyes even revealed greed and killing intent. Obviously, they had ill intentions.
"Besides that, the representatives of the Darqi Dynasty, Darqin Dynasty, Daryuan Dynasty, Darchu Dynasty, and Darqing Dynasty will each obtain two Concept Fragments, two grade three spirit weapons, and two bottles of grade three Life Recovery Pills."
Ning Can continued announcing and gave out the rewards at the same time.
"Thank you, Vice Fort Master Ning."
The representatives of the five Dynasties hurriedly expressed their gratitude.
"In the end, the remaining representatives of the four Dynasties will each obtain a grade three spirit weapon and a bottle of grade three Life Recovery Pills."
Ning Can continued.
Obviously, this was a consolation prize, and there wasn't even a Concept Fragment.
Even though the expressions of the representatives of the four Dynasties were extremely unsightly, they still gratefully accepted it.
The Dynasties behind them had worked hard for so long and even sacrificed many young geniuses, yet they only obtained this little bit of rewards and didn't even obtain a Concept Fragment, so how could they be happy?
Even if it was only a single Concept Fragment, it was sufficient to represent a future Void Transformation Stage expert.
So, the value of a Concept Fragment wasn't something spirit weapons and medicinal pills could compare to.
After the rewards of the various Dynasties were distributed, Ning Can's voice sounded out once more. "Now, I invite the young geniuses ranked in the top 10 of the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties to come over."
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
…
Instantly, the 10 people including Duan Lingtian soared into the sky and surrounded Ning Can.
"The first in the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties will be able to obtain three fourth level Concept Fragments, 10 grade three spirit weapons, and 10 bottles of grade three Life Recovery Pills."
Ning Can passed over the Spatial Ring that contained the rewards to Duan Lingtian.
"Thank you, Vice Fort Master Ning."
Duan Lingtian grinned and completely disregarded the coldness that was contained in the depths of Ning Can's gaze when he looked at him.
For a time, Duan Lingtian had once again become the center of attention.
Three fourth level Concept Fragments?
Even if it was the representatives of those Dynasties, including the Darkhan Dynasty's Emperor, all of their eyes had gone completely red.
After all, the Concept Fragments obtained by the representatives of the various Dynasties were only first level Concept Fragments, and they were utterly unable to compare with fourth level Concept Fragments!
Duan Lingtian had obtained three Concept Fragments in one go, so how could they not be envious?
If they were to find out that Duan Lingtian didn't care much about these rewards, they would probably be angered to the point of spitting blood.
In reality, Duan Lingtian really didn't care much about the rewards he'd just obtained, and he casually tossed the Spatial Ring that stored the rewards into his own Spatial Ring without the slightest intention of opening it to take a look.
Duan Lingtian's rewards were the best.
The second in the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties, Zi Decease, only possessed two fourth level Concept Fragments, nine grade three spirit weapons, and nine bottles of grade three Life Recovery Pills.
