Qin Wentian and the other two exited the battle realm. The three senior brothers who led them here weren't here.
"This battle realm is truly mystical. I heard that anyone of any cultivation level can come here to temper themselves. The combat immortals here can adjust themselves according to our strength and we can even choose different types of combat immortals. What a good place." Jun Mengchen spoke in a low voice. At this moment, two silhouettes flickered over. These two were none other than Fairy Xu and the Saberlord of Death. The senior brother who led Jun Mengchen here didn't come.
"You've exited, how do you feel?" Fairy Xu's gaze landed on Zi Qingxuan as she asked.
"Mhm, my improvement isn't small and I've broken through to the next level." Zi Qingxuan replied.
"What about you guys?" Fairy Xu turned to Qin Wentian and Jun Mengchen.
"Me and senior brother Qin have also broken through to the next level. Senior brother Qin and senior sister Qingxuan's combat prowess is extremely strong, truly admirable." Jun Mengchen spoke. Fairy Xu cast a deep glance at him and Qin Wentian. From the conversation between the two of them, regardless of Jun Mengchen or Qin Wentian, both of them were extraordinary characters with outstanding talent. Right now, she was no longer so confident that Zi Qingxuan would be able to stand at the very top.
Regardless of that transcendent senior brother or Bai Wuya, their judgement was extremely picky. How could the people they valued be weak?
"Mhm." Fairy Xu nodded. "There are very few missions in the Heavenly Talisman Realm that are suitable for Celestial Phenomenon Ascendants. However, one just so happened to appear today. Do you guys want to go take a look?"
"Senior sister Xu, what mission is it?" Zi Qingxuan asked.
"In the immortal realms, the Eastern Sage Thirteen Prefectures are governed by the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor. However, the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor resides in the Eastern Sage Immortal Palace and external affairs are handled by his subordinates. Under the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor, there's a transcendent power named the Dongshengxian Gate. The Dongshengxian Gate handles everything for the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor and is controlled by his disciples."
Fairy Xu slowly spoke to everyone, "Every hundred years, the Dongshengxian Gate would hold a grand banquet specially for those below the immortal-foundation realm. The Celestial Phenomenon Ascendants of the Eastern Sage Thirteen Prefectures are invited to gather at the Dongshengxian Gate of the Eastern Prefecture. The most outstanding batch of people would be able to obtain immortal arts, innate techniques and all sorts of treasures. The true purpose of the Dongshengxian Gate is naturally to recruit outstanding juniors to nurture their strength. The most outstanding three would directly become an honorary disciple of the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor, and there's even a possibility that they might be accepted as his personal disciples."
"This time around, you guys can participate in the banquet and obtain immortal arts and treasures, tempering yourselves. At the same time, this is also a tempering exercise for you guys. If you become the most outstanding three, you will be considered to have passed the test and the Heavenly Talisman Realm will bestow you with peak-tier immortal arts." Fairy Xu's voice caused the eyes of the three of them to flicker. As long as they succeeded, not only would they be able to obtain the innate techniques and treasures of the Dongshengxian Gate, they would also be able to obtain the peak-tier immortal arts of the Heavenly Talisman Realm.
However, the missions of the Heavenly Talisman Realm were truly monstrous. It was so hard to find a mission that was suitable for Celestial Phenomenon Ascendants. They had to become the most outstanding three out of the thirteen prefectures before they could be considered to have passed the test.
"Didn't the Heavenly Talisman Realm forbid us from entering the tutelage of others?" Qin Wentian curiously asked. He felt some resistance towards this mission because the other party was none other than the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor.
This Dongsheng Heaven Emperor was truly lofty and lofty. With a single command, the entire Eastern Sage Thirteen Prefectures would move out in unison. The strongest three were merely honorary disciples. No wonder back then when he descended to this particle world, he didn't even bother to look at the geniuses. It was simply too easy for him to accept disciples. Countless people would come begging to him, all he needed to do was to sit in the Eastern Sage Immortal Palace and wait.
"The mission this time around is only to obtain the top three spots. It isn't to enter the tutelage of the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor." The Saberlord laughed. He then continued, "If you guys really pass the test and obtain the immortal art and treasures, the Dongshengxian Gate will issue an order to recruit you guys as disciples. At that time, you guys better reject him."
As the sound of his voice faded, a playful smile appeared on the Saberlord's face.
Qin Wentian's heart trembled. You guys better reject him if you want to obtain the immortal art and treasures?
"Reject him, reject the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor." Qin Wentian clenched his fists tightly. His eyes gleamed with a terrifying sharpness, exuding a hint of wildness. Back then, although the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor father and son gave him a chance to recruit a disciple, in truth, from Dongsheng Ting's words, he could infer that the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor was doing this intentionally, wanting to humiliate him.
Qin Wentian truly wanted to settle this debt with the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor. However, the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor was simply too powerful, he didn't even have the qualifications to meet him. The entire thirteen prefectures were governed by him.
Zi Qingxuan's countenance was as calm as ever.
A wild smile also flashed on Jun Mengchen's face, causing Fairy Xu's heart to tremble. These three fellows were indeed worthy of being the demon-level characters they recommended into the Heavenly Talisman Realm. If ordinary people heard her words, they would surely be stunned or even panic. Rejecting the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor wasn't something ordinary people would dare to do. In addition, they even wanted to obtain the immortal art and treasures of the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor. This was simply a naked slap to their faces.
However, these three fellows didn't have much of a reaction. Qin Wentian and Jun Mengchen both had a wild gleam flickering in their eyes.
As for the consequences of rejecting the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor, since the Heavenly Talisman Realm had already issued this mission, they would naturally protect them. Given Qin Wentian and the others' understanding of the Heavenly Talisman Realm, they didn't doubt this point at all.
"Do you guys want to take a look at the mission details yourself?" Fairy Xu asked.
"There's no need for senior sister. Should we directly move out and head to the Eastern Prefecture where the Dongshengxian Gate is located?" Qin Wentian asked.
"How can it be so fast? The Dongshengxian Gate has just issued this order. The true recruitment period for the Dongshengxian Gate hasn't arrived yet. In addition, it's impossible for all the geniuses of the thirteen prefectures to gather at the Dongshengxian Gate. First, we have to go through a preliminary selection process. Each prefecture will select a thousand geniuses before they head to the Dongshengxian Gate. If you guys wish to participate, the sabersman will send you all out from the entrance he entered from and head to the Cloud Prefecture. Based on your talent, you all have to emerge victorious or you won't be qualified to be a disciple of the Heavenly Talisman Realm."
Fairy Xu spoke with cold arrogance, her words causing Zi Qingxuan to interject, "Senior sister, we will definitely not let you down."
"Mhm, other than you guys, there might be other disciples of our Heavenly Talisman Realm participating. However, it's enough for you all to know each other's existence. There's no need to acknowledge each other as it would attract unwanted attention. If you all die during the mission, the Heavenly Talisman Realm won't stand up for you." Fairy Xu spoke again. Qin Wentian and the others naturally understood that if they died, it would be because of their own incompetence.
Even for the major powers in the external world, they wouldn't restrict their disciples too much. This was especially so for disciples who went out to temper themselves. Death was a common occurrence and the Heavenly Talisman Realm was even more lax compared to the other major powers. They wouldn't care about their disciples' matters and if they died in battle outside, not many people in the Heavenly Talisman Realm would know about it.
"Understood." The three of them nodded.
"Alright, follow me." The Sabersman spoke. After which, he waved his hands and brought Qin Wentian and the others away.
...
The Cloud Prefecture had a total of eighty-one counties and countless cities. However, the most flourishing city was naturally the Cloud Prefecture Capital.
This city was named after the Cloud Prefecture of the Cloud Prefecture and was the main city of the Cloud Prefecture.
The Cloud Prefecture Capital was an open-ended city that radiated a boundless amount of land.
Right now, there were countless experts in the Cloud Prefecture Capital. In the air outside the Cloud Prefecture Capital, there would be experts soaring through the air. All of them were here for the selection test of the Cloud Prefecture.
This was an opportunity that only appeared once in a hundred years, none of the geniuses were willing to miss it. However, how could ordinary geniuses be able to grab hold of this opportunity? In the entire thirteen prefectures, it was hard to imagine how many geniuses there were. Even though Qin Wentian and the other two were extremely confident in themselves, they still didn't dare to say that they would be able to obtain the top three rankings for sure.
It was too difficult. The thirteen prefectures were filled with countless demon-level geniuses. Nobody knew what sort of characters would emerge from them.
However, at the very least, they could guarantee that there wouldn't be any problems during the selection test. If they couldn't even obtain one out of a thousand, it would mean that they were useless.
"Halt."
Right now, the Cloud Prefecture Capital, this city that was open to the public, had a ban on flying. In the air outside the city, there was an army of immortal-foundation experts patrolling the area. Once someone wanted to fly into the Cloud Prefecture Capital, they would immediately be stopped.
"I heard that right now, there are eighty-one countries in the Cloud Prefecture. The troops of the various countries have all been mobilized here to guard this place." The people below silently mused. More and more experts were obstructed, only immortal-foundation experts with immortal light had the qualifications to continue flying through the air and enter the city.
As for those below the immortal-foundation realm, they had to pass the test before they could enter the city. If not, despite how vast the Cloud Prefecture Capital was, it wouldn't be able to contain all the spectators of the Cloud Prefecture.
At the same time, the true selection test had already begun outside the Cloud Prefecture Capital. If one didn't even have the qualifications to enter the city, they wouldn't have the qualifications to participate in the selection test. This was also to prevent too many people trying to make up the numbers.
Qin Wentian and the others were naturally stopped as well. They stood outside the Cloud Prefecture Capital and stared at the armored troops. Seems like for this selection test, the Cloud Prefecture had made ample preparations.
After all, the selection test this time around was a grand event of the Eastern Sage Thirteen Prefectures. It was initiated by the Dongshengxian Gate and the controllers of the thirteen prefectures were all from the Dongshengxian Gate.
"If you want to enter the city to participate in the selection test, head to the testing area to participate. If you are only here to spectate, those below the immortal-foundation realm are free to leave. The Cloud Prefecture Capital will be temporarily sealed." A loud voice rang out from the air. Every once in a while, there would be someone calling out this sentence. That sinister voice caused countless people to be blocked outside the Cloud Prefecture Capital.
"Brother Qin, let's go over." A person beside Qin Wentian spoke. This person was none other than Mu Yan. He and Qin Wentian were companions and came here together with the Saberlord of Death. As for the identities of these people, the Saberlord didn't say much and Mu Yan didn't ask as well.
"The rules of the selection test is to jump levels and battle puppets. For those who are a level higher, the challengers are puppets." Mu Yan and the others walked to the testing area. Before them, there were immortal-foundation experts checking their cultivation bases. After that, there were rows of combat puppets. Evidently, everyone understood that there were too many people who wanted to participate in the selection test. Hence, even if this was the selection test outside the city, one would still need to have the ability to jump levels and battle puppets.
