Gathering of Heroes
Tianqin Year 52, 1st January. Shengxuan Plain, Soaring Platform.
Today, the tents and stalls on the Soaring Platform had been put away. The sky had just brightened, but the platform was already packed with people.
In the wee hours of the morning, when the sky was already bright, four old men descended from the sky and stopped a thousand meters above the crowd.
Among the four old men, one of them had white hair tied high on his head, and a long silver beard fluttered in the wind. Although he looked old, his skin was smooth and flawless, without the slightest wrinkle, and his face was ruddy. The old man carried a sword case on his back, and three flying swords were stuck in it. He was dressed like an old Taoist, and at this moment, he was smiling at the crowd. He was the Patriarch of the Tang dynasty, Tang Jun Ge!
The other old man was dressed in a black robe, with a bald head and dark skin. His frame was extremely broad, and he was about two to six meters tall. Just by standing there, he exuded an invisible domineering aura, like a demon god. No one dared to look at him directly. This was the Patriarch of the Wu people, Zu Wu Zhan!
The third old man had a stooped body, dressed in a green robe, and his hair was a mix of black and white. His face was cold, and his eyes were extremely small, but from time to time, flashes of light would flash in them. He was the Patriarch of the Green-scaled One-horned Flood Dragon Clan, Bi Ying.
The last old man was dressed in a brocade robe. His face was rosy, and his half-white hair was neatly combed to the back of his head. His clothes were sewn with fine snow-white silk, and on it were embroidered mountains, rivers, birds, trees, and flowers. At this moment, his left hand was behind his back, and his right hand was constantly spinning two sparkling jade balls. He looked at the crowd with a smile, and at first glance, a noble aura rushed over. This was the Patriarch of the Splendid Blessed Land of the Sect Domain, Baili Wuhui.
All four of them were Level 10 Loose Immortals, the ancestors of various great powers, and the top figures of the continent.
Because the Tang Empire and the Sorcerer Tribe were managed by Tang Junge and Wu Zhan, only the two of them came every time. The Patriarchs of the Six Major Tribes and the Six Major Sects took turns to come to the Demon Tribe and the Sect Zone. The Patriarchs of the Six Major Tribes and the Six Major Sects took turns to come to the Grand Competition this time. It just so happened that the Patriarchs of the Green-scaled One-horned Flood Dragon Tribe, Bi Ying, and the Patriarchs of the Splendid Blessed Land, Baili Wuhui.
This way, even if everyone came over, the demon race and the sect zone would each have at least six level 10 loose immortals! How could the Tang dynasty and the Wu people resist?
Let me explain. The Wu people and the Tang dynasty did not only have two level 10 loose immortals, Tang Jun Ge and Wu Zhan. The two great powers also had many level 10 loose immortals. For example, everyone knew that the Great Tang's East Gate, West Gate, South Gate, and North Gate were the four top clans. Each clan had a level 10 Loose Immortal, but they all respected the Great Tang and listened to Tang Junge's orders.
Tang Junge looked at the crowd that had quieted down after the four of them had appeared and announced, "Everyone, I hereby announce that this year's Continental Young Genius Competition has officially begun!"
He did not say too much nonsense, nor did he give a lengthy speech. The real superiors and people in power were not good at this, and they did not need to use speeches and people's attention to gain a little bit of vanity.
Just as Tang Jun Ge finished speaking, the crowd below on the Soaring Platform all cheered. The sound waves came one after another without stopping.
In the sky, Tang Jun Ge and the other three looked at each other and nodded. They all stretched out their hands and aimed at the Soaring Platform below.
As the four of them stretched out their hands, the Soaring Platform shook violently. The four people in the sky suddenly moved their hands in all directions, and the Soaring Platform suddenly split into countless pieces and scattered to the side.
Except for the houses of the four powers in the north, south, east, and west of the Soaring Platform, which separated and scattered to the side, the entire surface of the Soaring Platform scattered into spectator stands. Each of them was ten meters in size and floated in the void.
The four people raised their hands again, and the Soaring Platform began to undulate. Countless square arenas rose from the Soaring Platform one by one. Each arena was extremely wide, and the distance between them was less than ten meters. If one counted carefully, there were at least several thousand arenas.
The people who had just been sent out stood on the floating platform and looked down at the thousands of arenas below. They could see all the arenas in the sky. Countless platforms floated in the air like stars, covering the sky and covering the sun.
Seeing that the arenas had risen, several thousand figures flew up from all directions and stood on each of the arenas. These were all referees brought by the various powers, and each of them had an Out-of-Body Stage cultivation base.
Tang Jun Ge waved his long sleeve to the north, and all the arenas in the east scattered. A tall rostrum then appeared out of thin air in the north.
There were four gold-engraved high chairs on the rostrum, and there were more than twenty seats below. Tang Jun Ge gestured toward the rostrum and said to the three people beside him, "Let's go."
To Take The Lead, he flew toward the rostrum and sat on the first seat on the left. Afterward, Wu Zhan, Bi Ying, and Baili Wuhui also sat down one by one with Tang Jun Ge.
After the four people sat down, more than twenty people flew up from the courtyards of the four powers and landed on the rostrum. They were Tang Jin and the other young talents of the various powers.
Seeing Tang Jin and the others fly over, Tang Jun Ge waved his sleeves and pointed to the seats below, "Sit down."
After receiving the order, Tang Jin and the others dared to sit down.
As one of the four powers of the mainland and the host of this mainland's Young Talents Competition, of course, they had some privileges.
For example, right now, Tang Jin and the others could directly enter the top 100 without having to compete. This was one of the privileges they had.
The major powers directly entered the top 100. The Tang dynasty had Tang Jin, Tang Junming, Ximen Wentian, the eldest son of the Dongmen clan, Dongmen Yan, the eldest son of the Northmen clan, Northmen Xingyao, and the eldest daughter of the Nanmen clan, Nanmen Jing. Among them, although Dongmen Yan, Northmen Xingyao, and Nanmen Jing were one day behind Ximen Wentian in terms of talent and did not enter the top ten young talents of the mainland, they were not far behind.
The Wu people's direct entry included the eldest prince Wu Shan, the fourth prince Wu Yun, the eighth prince Wu Tian, the successor of the Wu people's Yun clan, Yun Bin, the second son of the Yang clan, Yang Xun, and the eldest son of the Zhao clan, Zhao Ming.
The Yao clan had the young masters of the six major clans, and the Sect domain had Hua Chonglou, Lo Cheng, and the others.
It just so happened that each of the four major powers had six spots, no more and no less.
When everyone was seated, Tang Jin sat in the first seat on the left like his ancestor. Needless to say, the one sitting next to him was Tang Jin's good friend, Lo Cheng.
There were a total of 24 seats, and everyone was seated in a row. However, among the six members of the Yao clan, only Hu Ben of the Purple-striped Winged Tiger clan and Yuan Shi of the Earth-shaking Violent Ape clan had entered the Nascent Soul stage and could transform into humans. The other four beasts were still in the Gold Core stage and could only maintain their beast forms. It was very awkward for them to sit there.
When the six members of the Wu people and the six beasts of the Yao clan passed by Tang Jin, their eyes looked as if they wanted to eat Tang Jin. They all had a lot of hatred for Tang Jin, but Tang Jin did not care. He sat there calmly and did not put them in his eyes at all.
Looking at the 24 people below, Tang Jun Ge and the others could not help but smile. These 24 people were the future pillars of the major powers. They were the top experts of the Dou Xian Continent in the future!
When they saw the way the members of the Yao clan and the Wu people looked at Tang Jin, and how Hua Chonglou and Lo Cheng did not get along, they could only helplessly shake their heads. Thinking back to when they were young, wasn't it because of a small matter that they couldn't stand each other and fought until now?
Seeing that everyone was ready, Tang Jun Ge calmly said, "Okay, let's begin."
When they heard Tang Jun Ge's announcement, the people in the stands shot down and landed on the stage below.
The stages below were not random. Counting from the north, the first stage on the left was the first stage, the second stage was the second stage, and so on.
As early as the day before, all the contestants had received the notice that they should be competing in a certain arena. When the arena had just risen, all the contestants had already found their arenas. Now that the competition had started, of course they all hurriedly landed. Because the spectator stands were not far from the arena, even if they were Zhuji stage cultivators, although they could not fly, they could glide in the air for a while and land on the arena. It was not a problem.
"Everyone, please wait!" Just when all the contestants landed on the stage and were about to start the match, a figure suddenly shot out from the stands and flew to the front of the rostrum. He said in a clear voice, "This Bai has something to say!"
After the figure landed, people could see the person's appearance clearly.
The person was wearing a white robe. His face was white and he had no beard. He looked like a young man, but his cultivation was not low. He was at the peak of the Dongxu Stage and was about to break through to the Enlightening Stage!
"Oh? What do you have to say? " Tang Jun Ge frowned. He looked at the young man in white and said slowly, "Do you know what crime you have committed by obstructing the progress of this competition?"
"I know!" The young man looked at Tang Jun Ge and nodded. His voice was neither servile nor overbearing. Then he looked at Tang Jin, "I am here today to challenge the famous King Of Heaven, Your Excellency Tang Jin!"
Hua — —
Hearing the intention of the young man in white, the crowd could not help but be in an uproar. No one would have thought that this young man in white was here to find trouble with Tang Jin! Wasn't this courting death!?
"Not interested." Hearing that this person was here for him, Tang Jin raised his eyelids and looked at the young man in white. He said listlessly.
"You!" Seeing that Tang Jin did not put him in his eyes, the young man in white could not help but be angry, "Tang Jin, you are too arrogant! Could it be that you are afraid of me? If you don't dare to fight, just say that you don't dare to fight. Why do you have to say that you are not interested? "
This time, Tang Jin did not even bother to speak. He leaned back in his chair and did not even look at the young man in white.
"Hmph! The great King Of Heaven is only so-so! You don't even dare to come forward to fight. Are you afraid of losing in front of so many people in a one-on-one fight?! Tang Jin, I knew it. Without the help of the faction behind you, you are nothing in a one-on-one fight! " The young man in white's arrogant voice spread through the space and fell into everyone's ears, triggering another round of discussion.
"Enough." Tang Jun Ge looked at the young man in white, frowned, and said, "Young man, do you think that you can become famous by challenging Tang Jin in public? Have you ever thought that if you lose, you will die on the spot? Are you that confident? This old man advises you not to make a mistake. "
