Dongsheng Ting could also be considered extremely intelligent. Before this, he had already calculated everything. Based on the rankings, even if Qin Wentian was ranked first, he would still be at a disadvantage when compared to Hua Taixu and Gusu Tianqi.
However, everyone understood in their hearts that the weight of the final battle was the heaviest. But since Dongsheng Ting was the host of the immortal banquet in place of his father, Dongsheng Heaven Emperor, no matter what he said, nobody would dare to refute him.
Before this, Dongsheng Ting's targeting of Qin Wentian was still a little obscure. But now, as Qin Wentian stood out, it was already more obvious. Naturally, everyone also understood that before this, Dongsheng Ting had given Qin Wentian a chance but was rejected by Qin Wentian.
This seemed to have already determined the ending.
Just like what the Deepflame Immortal King had said, the ending was already set in stone.
"Your highness." At this moment, Princess Liuli called out. Dongsheng Ting turned his gaze over and stared at Princess Liuli as he smiled, "Princess, what's the matter?"
"Your highness once said that if Qin Wentian is outstanding enough, he would definitely be able to enter the top three. But why are you saying this now?" Princess Liuli replied. "I'm only a little curious. If it's inconvenient for your highness to say it, it's fine as well. After all, this is the immortal banquet hosted by the Dongshengxian Gate, I shouldn't be too nosy."
"I'm sure Princess's question is also the same question in the hearts of many." Dongsheng Ting laughed. "For this immortal banquet, firstly, it's to see the geniuses of our Eastern Sage Thirteen Prefectures. Secondly, it's to recruit geniuses into the immortal sect and thirdly, it's to recruit disciples for my royal father.
Princess might not know this but Qin Wentian's talent is so outstanding that my royal father wanted to take him in as a disciple, allowing him to follow the Deepflame Immortal King for a thousand years. However, he wasn't willing to endure for a thousand years, feeling that it was too long and rejected my royal father's suggestion. Hence, my royal father was unhappy and decided to retract his decision. This time, Qin Wentian's comeback was originally a good thing. Before this, I've also asked him if he was willing to undergo a thousand years of tempering if he was given another chance. However, he rejected once again. Princess has already seen for yourself that his personality is too arrogant, disregarding everything in his eyes. I'm worried that my royal father wouldn't be happy about this. Gusu Tianqi, I believe my royal father would be even more satisfied. "
"In addition, Gusu Tianqi's performance in the immortal banquet was already extremely domineering. Although he was defeated in the final battle, he wasn't inferior to Gusu Tianqi by much. Gusu Tianqi is like this, Hua Taixu is the same as well. If Gusu Tianqi enters the top three while Hua Taixu doesn't, wouldn't that be too unfair?" Dongsheng Ting spoke frankly with assurance. After which, he turned to Qin Wentian. "Naturally, there's no harm in doing so. Our Dongshengxian Gate will still send supreme immortal kings to personally guide Qin Wentian and observe him. If his performance is outstanding, he would still be able to become a Sage Child of our sect and even gain the favor of my royal father. This can also be considered a test for him, to see how his temperament is."
Dongsheng Ting explained in such detail was also for the sake of his future plans. He was targeting Qin Wentian, and now that Princess Liuli had already seen through it, he might as well be frank with his intentions to avoid any misunderstandings from Princess Liuli. If news of this were to spread to Qing 'er's ears in the future, although it would still be suspicious, at the very least, he could justify his words on the surface. In order to prevent Qin Wentian from entering the top three, he could only do so.
"Understood." Princess Liuli nodded her head lightly and didn't say anything more.
"I have no intentions of entering the top three. It's not that I'm arrogant, but other than Qin Wentian, for the other participants, only Gusu Tianqi and Jun Mengchen might be able to threaten me. But even so, the probability of victory is fifty-fifty. Earlier, Qin Wentian has already defeated me. If he were to replace me in the top three, I wouldn't have any objections."
At this moment, Hua Taixu stared at Dongsheng Ting as he spoke, his words causing many to be bewildered. Seems like Hua Taixu wasn't interested in taking the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor as his master, but he was extremely respectful towards his master, the Myriad Incarnations Immortal King. And as expected, at this moment, the beautiful eyes of the Myriad Incarnations Immortal King flashed with a consoling smile.
"The hundred year grand event of the Dongshengxian Gate, how can it be a child's play? I've already seen the performance of the geniuses present, how can I back down?" Dongsheng Ting faintly spoke, causing Hua Taixu's expression to stiffen. However, he only saw Qin Wentian smiling at him, "Hua Taixu, there's no need to say anything more. The Dongshengxian Gate is the leader of the thirteen prefectures. His highness Dongsheng Ting naturally has his own plans in mind."
Upon hearing Qin Wentian's words, expressions of interest appeared on the faces of the spectators. Did Qin Wentian give up?
Ultimately, his ranking could only be ranked # 4.
His three fellow apprentice brothers were all so dazzling, radiating resplendent light. However, it seems that only Jun Mengchen would be able to enter the top three. Qin Wentian could only be ranked # 4, and Zi Qingxuan could only be ranked # 5.
"Senior brother." Jun Mengchen was still somewhat unconvinced.
"Mengchen." Qin Wentian directly interrupted what Jun Mengchen wanted to say. He then continued, "Trust in your highness Dongsheng Ting. For the next battle, you will challenge Gusu Tianqi. If you win, I believe your ranking would still be able to advance. You have to do your best in this battle."
"Right." Jun Mengchen nodded heavily. The anger in his body was about to erupt forth. His silhouette flickered as he directly landed in the center of the platform. He stared at Gusu Tianqi as he spoke, "I will win this battle for sure."
Gusu Tianqi opened his eyes as a terrifying beam of light shot out from them, terrifying to the extreme.
Jun Mengchen would win for sure? In that case, wouldn't he, Gusu Tianqi, be defeated?
"You won't be able to win." Gusu Tianqi stepped out as a terrifying heat wave instantly gushed forth from him. Nine blazing suns floated in the air as an incomparably gigantic furnace appeared. Numerous long spears could be seen within the furnace, each of them resembling a blazing sun spear.
The Gusu Tianqi at this moment was too terrifying. The instant he appeared, he radiated a towering might that caused the hearts of the spectators to tremble.
"Powerful." The spectators stared at Gusu Tianqi as their hearts trembled.
On the other side, Jun Mengchen stood proudly on the platform. Behind him, the Shadow of the Ancient King manifested, resembling a supreme king. A crack opened up in his body as a brilliant light flashed, transforming into a Clear Skies Worldly Diagram that floated in the air, resembling the boundless starry skies. This Clear Skies Worldly Diagram was like a world of starry skies, and within it, there were signs of life.
This Clear Skies Worldly Diagram existed in the center of that supreme king, as though it was the body of that supreme king.
The spectators stared intently at the Clear Skies Worldly Diagram as their hearts trembled. What ability was this exactly?
The entire starry skies seemed to be enveloped by a supreme king, and the body of this king was like a painting of the starry skies.
It was rumored that for those with heaven-defying physiques, their astral souls and constellations were all destined by fate. Was Jun Mengchen such an existence?
"Two supreme geniuses, in addition to Hua Taixu's Eyes of Samsara, the top three rankers are truly three supreme geniuses." From a certain perspective, it wasn't wrong for Dongsheng Ting to choose these three as the top three rankers.
Qin Wentian was also very strong, his overall combat prowess was extremely high. However, he had yet to display an ability that would stun the spectators in an instant. Such a person could be considered a supreme genius, but his malleability might not be as good as the rest.
Gusu Tianqi walked step by step towards Jun Mengchen with the blazing furnace in his hand. Half of the sky was burning, while the other half was Jun Mengchen's constellation, the Battle King's Shadow, and the Clear Skies Worldly Diagram.
Abruptly, Gusu Tianqi pointed his finger forward. From the terrifying blazing furnace, numerous long spears shot out, directly burning Jun Mengchen's Battle King Armor. Terrifying sizzling sounds rang out as the blazing furnace constellation erupted forth with destructive flames.
Jun Mengchen abruptly clenched his fists as a supreme king glow radiated from him. With a roar, countless war chariots gushed forth from the Clear Skies Worldly Diagram. These war chariots seemed to be forged from the toughest materials, and as they soared through the air, they collided with the long spears, directly exploding apart.
"ROAR!" Jun Mengchen howled as he stepped out. From the Clear Skies Worldly Diagram, an incomparably violent windstorm manifested. The war chariots soared through the air while the demonic beasts frenziedly attacked. Their speed was also extremely fast, wanting to engulf the entire sky in the blink of an eye.
"Too crazy, is such an attack really the ability of a Celestial Phenomenon Ascendant? With a single roar, he can annihilate countless ordinary characters at the same level as him." The hearts of the spectators trembled. The eyes of those immortal kings were all blazing with heat as they stared at this battle.
The blazing flames radiating from Gusu Tianqi grew even more terrifying. What was even more terrifying was that behind the nine suns, nine silhouettes appeared, all of them resembling divinities.
"KILL!" Gusu Tianqi roared in rage as the power of multiple constellations erupted forth at the same time. The nine silhouettes pulled out their long spears from the nine suns and blasted outwards. Boundless flames gushed forth, transforming into a terrifying solar storm that swept outwards, incinerating everything in its path into nothingness.
"The number one genius of the Eastern Prefecture, is this the true strength of Gusu Tianqi?" The spectators stared at this scene. Nine generations of sole inheritors, each generation of immortal kings. Were those nine silhouettes the shadows of the nine generations of immortal kings?
Such an attack, could it really be countered by someone at the same level as them?
Maybe only Jun Mengchen would be able to do so.
The Clear Sky Worldly Diagram behind him started to churn madly as terrifying currents of energy converged. Jun Mengchen inclined his head as an incomparably resplendent and terrifying light cascaded onto him. He lifted his fists as a boundless light radiated from them, exuding a sense of supremacy.
"KILL!" Jun Mengchen roared in rage. The fist art he used to defeat Cang Ao appeared once more, but this time, it was even stronger than before. The spectators only saw countless fist shadows piercing through the heavens and earth, as though there were thousands of fist lights that directly blasted into the solar storm. In an instant, numerous holes appeared on the solar storm, as cracks spread out in all directions like spiderwebs.
Jun Mengchen's fist art was still as powerful as ever, capable of breaking through anything.
Below, Zi Qingxuan stared at the battle between the two of them as she sighed in her heart. Seems like she was truly one of the weaker ones. Before this, Gusu Tianqi hadn't unleashed his full strength yet. After she returned, she had to work even harder to become stronger.
"Mengchen will do his best to help you win this battle, pulling down Gusu Tianqi's ranking. But even so, he doesn't intend to let you enter the top three. But at the very least, you have to defeat him to prove that you've come before. Are you confident?" Zi Qingxuan stared at the air as she spoke in a low voice. Naturally, she was asking Qin Wentian who was beside her.
Qin Wentian stared at the battle in the air as his eyes gleamed with a terrifying sharpness. "Defeat? How can that be enough?"
