"What? What did you say? Yang Yutian is Jianchen?" An old man behind Old Ghost Situ exclaimed in shock. His face was filled with disbelief.
"That's right, it's him. He's Jianchen. It can't be wrong because I used the blood of Jianchen's parents to cast the Great Prophecy Technique. I can sense a dense presence of bloodline from Yang Yutian, so he must be Jianchen." Old man Situ was both excited and surprised. He was excited because they had finally found Jianchen after searching for so long. They were about to complete the Tiger King's mission and obtain the remaining two Class 7 Monster Cores. However, he was surprised because Jianchen, who was originally a fighter and had participated in the tournament of Mercenary City, had suddenly become a Radiant Saint Master. Moreover, he was an unprecedented Class 6 Radiant Saint Master with talent. Even old man Situ found this rather unbelievable.
If it were not for the dense presence of bloodline from Jianchen, he would have never connected Yang Yutian to Jianchen.
This was because Radiant Saint Masters and fighters could not exist at the same time on the Tian Yuan Continent. This had basically become an indisputable fact.
"Strange. Jianchen was clearly a fighter, so why has he become a Radiant Saint Master now?" Another old man asked. He found this result very hard to believe.
Old Ghost Situ's group of five were communicating using sound transmissions. Their words would not be heard by the people around them.
Old man Ma Teng stared at Jianchen with mixed feelings. He felt extremely shocked by Jianchen's abilities as a fighter and a Radiant Saint Master. After a moment of silence, old man Ma Teng's lips moved slightly. He said through a communication technique, "Since we've found Jianchen, the beast on his shoulder must be the infant that the tiger king wants."
"That's right, it's definitely that cub. It's exactly as the Tiger King described it. Old bastard Situ, old bastard Ma Teng, what are we waiting for with such a good opportunity in front of us? Let's go together and snatch the cub from Jian Chen's shoulder and leave immediately," an old man said excitedly. He had been waiting for this day for far too long.
"Don't!" Old man Situ shook his head without any hesitation, "This is the City of God, and it's the headquarters of the Radiant Saint Master Union. Jianchen is someone the union values greatly as well. If we touch him right now, we'll definitely be the ones to suffer. Not only will we not be able to take the infant, but we might even be dragged into the mess."
"That's right. There are as many experts in the City of God as there are clouds, especially the Zaar family. There are even Holy Emperor level experts hiding there. We can't be careless, or we'll probably be doomed. As for the beast, we can only take it with our wits. Even if we want to take it by force, we can't do it here," Ma Teng said with a heavy voice.
"The City of God is hidden by the Heaven-encompassing Formation, and we've hidden our presence as well. The four protectors of the Bloodsword sect won't be able to find us in a short amount of time. Let's just stay near the union. I refuse to believe that Yang Yutian will stay there forever. Even if he doesn't come out, I'll think of a way to lure him out. Once he's far away from the union, things will be much easier."
"I think that's a good idea. Let's do it. If it really doesn't work, we still have one last move. Jianchen is a fighter, hmph …"
…
The final top ten victors slowly landed on the ground under the seven-colored light. The Radiant Saint Masters in the surroundings all looked at them with envy and jealousy.
Kwon Youcai was one of them as well. He was currently overjoyed, constantly thanking Jianchen. Out of the top ten people, Kwon Youcai had it the easiest. He had picked up so many of Jianchen's achievements.
The president of the Radiant Saint Master Union led a few elders out of the castle. They all smiled at the ten people enveloped by the seven-colored light, "Good, good, good. You're all the most outstanding Class 6 Radiant Saint Masters this year. I hope that a year from now, there will be Class 7 Radiant Saint Masters among you."
The president looked at Jianchen and said, "Yang Yutian, you've done extremely well. Even I feel proud of you. However, I've misjudged the little beast on your shoulder. I never thought that it would actually be a beast of ancient times. It really does shock me."
"President, Yang Yutian has experienced many battles in the artifact space. He must be exhausted. You should let Yang Yutian go back and rest," the grand elder smiled from one side. He looked at Jianchen with mixed feelings.
"That's true. Yang Yutian, go back and rest first," the president chuckled. He was clearly extremely happy.
"Yes, master!" Jianchen clasped his hands before bidding farewell to Kara Livi and Kwon Youcai. He directly made his way to the castle.
"Hold on!"
Suddenly, a loud shout rang out from outside the arena. Over a dozen people of various ages strode towards Jian Chen from outside the arena.
Jianchen frowned slightly when he saw this. He was familiar with these people. They were all the ancestors of the eight clans in the City of God.
The president and grand elder frowned as well. A sliver of displeasure appeared in their eyes.
The people of the eight clans arrived before Jian Chen and glared at him. One of them said with a deep voice, "Yang Yutian, all of us from the eight clans have died to your hands except for one person. You must give us an explanation for this matter."
Jianchen's face sank. Even though he faced over a dozen Saint Rulers, there was no fear on his face at all. He sneered, "They were the ones who wanted to kill me first, so they ended up like this. They only have themselves to blame for this. They can't blame anyone else."
When the ancestors of the eight clans heard Jianchen's attitude and tone, their faces immediately sank. Their gazes toward Jianchen became much sharper as well. They could not forgive a mere junior for speaking to them like that.
If it were not for the fact that the president of the Radiant Saint Master Union was present, they definitely would have taught Jianchen a lesson.
A middle-aged man in red robes growled, "Yang Yutian, we of the eight clans are not unreasonable people. We know that the person who killed us was an ancient beast and not you, so we won't make things difficult for you. However, the culprit must be handed over to us to be executed. You need to give us an explanation." With that, the middle-aged man arrived beside Jianchen with a flash. He extended his hands toward the White Tiger with lightning-like speed in an attempt to take the beast by surprise.
Although this was no different from forceful robbery, the eight clans had plenty of reasons to do so.
A vicious light flashed through Jianchen's eyes. Just when he was about to move, a transparent barrier suddenly appeared, enveloping Jianchen.
As soon as the middle-aged man's hand came in contact with the barrier, he was unable to advance any further. He was actually unable to break through the barrier around Jianchen with his strength.
Roar! At the same time, the White Tiger on Jianchen's shoulder suddenly stood up. Its bright, innocent eyes shone with a vicious light at that moment. The White Tiger's tightly folded wings suddenly unfurled, and with a flash of white light, the White Tiger had already passed through the barrier and arrived before the middle-aged man. It swung its sharp claws at the middle-aged man's face.
The middle-aged man sneered and said disdainfully, "A mere Class 6 Magical Beast dares to act so recklessly in front of me? So what if you're an ancient beast? You're still as weak as an ant." With that, the surrounding space immediately froze. He tried to use his control over space to forcefully bind the White Tiger in the air. As a Saint Ruler, he really did not take a Class 6 beast seriously.
After all, the difference in strength between the two of them was just far too great. There was even a saying that all those below Saint Ruler were ants.
However, what happened next shocked everyone. The White Tiger was not affected by the frozen space at all. It arrived before the middle-aged man without slowing down at all. Under the middle-aged man's shocked gaze, it left behind two deep claw marks on his face with lightning speed. Afterward, it turned into a streak of white light and landed on Jianchen's shoulder calmly.
The frozen space did not seem to exist to the White Tiger at all.
The entire place fell silent, including the president of the Radiant Saint Master Union and the Saint Rulers from the eight clans of the City of God. Everyone stared at the deep claw marks on the middle-aged man's face blankly. Disbelief filled their faces.
A Class 6 Magical Beast had actually injured a Saint Ruler, and the wound had been left on his face. This was basically a vicious slap to the Saint Ruler's face. It was a humiliation that he would never be able to wash away for the rest of his life.
After being stunned for a while, the middle-aged man returned to his senses. Feeling the burning pain on his face, he immediately became furious. He was filled with rage. To think that he, a mighty Saint Ruler, had his face slashed by a Class 6 Magical Beast in front of so many people was a great humiliation. He even wanted to die.
"Y-Y-Y-You bastard, I'll definitely not let you live today!" The middle-aged man had already lost his mind under the pressure of his rage and humiliation. He bellowed out and actually attacked the White Tiger as hard as he could without any regard for the consequences.
"How dare you!" Suddenly, a feeble, old voice rang out from the sky. With that, the space around the middle-aged man immediately froze. Even with his strength as a Saint Ruler, he was unable to resist the frozen space at all. He was firmly trapped, unable to move at all.
Afterward, the frozen space suddenly shook. The red-robed man immediately vomited a mouthful of blood and was blown away. He was caught by the Saint Rulers of the eight clans behind him.
At this moment, the Saint Rulers of the eight clans all revealed extremely ugly expressions. The Holy Emperor of the Radiant Saint Master Union had interfered. Unless the ancestor of the Zaar family stood up for them, it would be very difficult for them to gain anything. However, the ancestor of the Zaar family was extremely fearful of the president of the union, so it was impossible for him to stand up for them.
