"Those who are not involved, please leave." The head judge stood up right then. He pushed his Zhen yuan and raised his voice so that everyone could hear him.
Hearing him, all of the young warriors who had been eliminated walked out of the battling ground. There were only seventy-two people left, who were indeed the powerful warriors in this year's Hidden Dragon Rank.
"Alright, you all stand on the battling platform and accept the baptism of the dragon fountain Qi. Do not panic when the time comes." The head judge was very familiar with the competitions of the Hidden Dragon Rank, so he knew some of the secrets of the Hidden Dragon Ancient City.
Shoo! Shoo! Shoo!
Most of the young warriors had participated in the competitions of the Hidden Dragon Rank before, so they were not surprised at all. Only a small part of the young warriors who had not heard much of the news were a bit confused. However, seeing the others flying onto the battling platforms, they did not say much and followed suit, standing with the people who were close to them.
There were six battling platforms in total on the abyss. The number of people on each platform was different. Some had more than twenty people, while the others only had seven or eight people. On the fifth battling platform, Ye Chen, Xu Jing, and Lynch stood together. Next to them were the young warriors from the other few countries around the Windy Nation.
Ye Chen said, "I think this dragon fountain Qi is related to luck. I wonder how it will baptize us."
Xu Jing was just about to say something when she suddenly noticed that more than fifty percent of the young warriors had something different on their bodies. Outside of their bodies, countless dragon-shaped shadows were waving their claws, roaring towards the sky. The dragon-shaped shadows were of different sizes, clear and blurry, majestic and weak. Among them, Sikong Sheng and the other top young warriors were the most powerful. The dragon-shaped shadows outside of their bodies were seventy to eighty meters long, with clear shapes and majestic expressions. A strange pressure had covered the whole place.
"This is the dragon fountain Qi?" Lynch seemed to be thinking about something.
Ye Chen looked around and realized that all the warriors with dragon-shaped shadows outside of their bodies were all the powerful warriors from the last Hidden Dragon Rank, who had been baptized by the dragon fountain Qi. Meanwhile, the new young warriors were just like them, with nothing different on their bodies. They all looked at each other.
After about a quarter of an hour, the faint roar of a dragon came from the abyss between the stages. Immediately after, streams of dragon-shaped Qi rushed out and entered everyone's body. Soon after, they drilled out again and floated outside their bodies.
Ye Chen was slightly surprised. Just now, he clearly felt the existence of the dragon-shaped Qi flow. It first entered his body through his Baihui acupoint, and then circulated through his flesh and bones. Finally, it escaped from various acupoints in a unique way and formed a dragon-shaped shadow outside his body.
It might have been an illusion, but Ye Chen sensed that his condition had improved.
"Ours are only this small. Look at them, they are all three to four zhang in size, and there are even some that are seven to eight zhang in size." Some of the up-and-coming youngsters didn't understand what was going on, and were discussing spiritedly amongst themselves.
The contestants from the last Hidden Dragon Rank already had dragon-shaped shadows floating outside of their bodies. After the dragon-shaped Qi flow had been poured in, the dragon-shaped shadow had become even bigger, almost twice its original size. For example, the dragon-shaped shadow outside of Sikong Sheng's body was already the biggest, reaching eight zhang. But now, it had become around eight and twenty meters long. Standing on the battling platform, it was extremely eye-catching.
The Fire Spirit Prince Yan Chihuo, the Heartless Sword Artist Li Daoxuan, Lin Yun, Bing Ling, and Mo Yan were all above seven zhang. Murong Qingcheng was also more than five zhang.
As for the new young warriors like Ye Chen, their dragon-shaped shadow was only three meters long, which was nowhere close to these people.
"Steal!"
Ye Chen and Xu Jing looked at each other.
If their guess was right, the Dragon Vein Qi was not static. There should be some way to steal the opponent's Dragon Vein Qi. However, this was a competition, so there was only one way to steal it, and that was to defeat the opponent and win the competition.
In the audience seating, Luo Xinglie smiled and said, "Right now, the dragon fountain Qi can only increase one's luck, and cannot be used on the martial institutions. Once we get back to the martial institutions, the dragon fountain Qi will be infused into the foundation of the martial institutions to increase their luck. As for the mysteries, I don't think even the Seas of Souls Realm warriors would be able to understand them all."
The Head Elder of the Sky Cloud Martial School said, "Then, after this competition, let Ye Chen go to the Sky Cloud Martial School first?"
"It depends on his personal will. We can't force him. However, he will most likely go back. The Dragon Vein Qi can not only bring prosperity to the sect, but also the clan."
The leader of the Purple Sun Martial School, Tu Chongshan, looked at the Dragon Vein Qi on the young warriors with envy. If the Purple Sun Martial School also had the Dragon Vein Qi, they would definitely continue to prosper. However, all of this had been ruined by him. He looked at Ye Chen, and a deep killing intent flashed through his eyes.
The leader of the Emerald Martial School, Zhuang Qingxian, thought to himself, 'The Emerald Martial School has been dominating the Windy Nation for a long time. Even without the Dragon Vein Qi, they would still continue to prosper. It will not be easy for the Sky Cloud Martial School to catch up. When the next Hidden Dragon Rank competition starts, the Emerald Martial School will definitely have the Dragon Vein Qi again.'
Both of them valued the Dragon Vein Qi very much. Plus, the Dragon Vein Qi in the Hidden Dragon Ancient Place was different from the outside world. The Dragon Vein in the Hidden Dragon Ancient Place was the main dragon vein in the whole South Rudra region. The Dragon Vein Qi that was produced was extremely powerful and full of luck, which was very important to the development of the martial institutions. After all, who would not want their own martial institutions to be covered with luck and have many geniuses?
Awooo!
Waiting until the dragon-shaped shadow on the young warriors' bodies had stabilized, the eight-foot-long dragon-shaped shadow outside of Sikong Sheng's body suddenly roared into the sky, looking extremely majestic. Right after that, the dragon-shaped shadows outside of Yan Chihuo and Lin Yun's bodies also started to roar, followed by Li Daoxuan, Bing Ling, and Mo Yan.
In the end, the dragon-shaped shadow outside of Ye Chen and the rest's bodies started to roar as well. However, compared to those people before them, their roars seemed to be very weak, and did not have enough power. From this, it could be easily seen who had more dragon fountain Qi.
Sikong Sheng made a face and said lightly, "In the past thousand years, the largest dragon-shaped shadow had only been twenty-eight meters. This time, I want to reach twenty-three meters and surpass the ancient warriors."
"Nine is the most powerful part of the dragon-shaped shadow. Head brother, you are way more powerful than them. It will be easy for your dragon-shaped shadow to grow to twenty-three meters."
"Indeed! Head brother, you have the king level bloodline inside your body. Together with the twenty-three meters dragon-shaped shadow, it will be perfect. The others will just be the background for you."
There were a lot of powerful warriors in the Floating Mountain Martial School. The few core disciples did not think that Sikong Sheng would lose the first place title. Once he got enough dragon fountain Qi, it would be very easy for his dragon-shaped shadow to grow to twenty-three meters, since this year's Hidden Dragon Rank competition would be the most exciting one in the past one thousand years.
Yan Chihuo and Lin Yun looked at Sikong Sheng at the same time.
"This time, I will not only beat you, but also increase my dragon-shaped shadow to twenty-three meters. Sikong Sheng, wait for me!"
"No matter who it is, they will all be defeated by me, Lin Yun. As for the dragon fountain Qi, I will take it all."
The difference between the first and second place of the Hidden Dragon Rank's dragon-shaped shadow was too huge. Sikong Sheng was the first place, and his dragon-shaped shadow had reached twenty-three meters. Meanwhile, Yan Chihuo, who was ranked second, had only reached twenty-three meters, and Lin Yun, who was ranked fifth, had also reached twenty-three meters. In other words, the difference between the second place and the top ten was not that big. Only the first place was the most powerful, and the gap between the two was very obvious.
Correspondingly, the luck of the first place could be compared with two or three top ten warriors, which was very eye-catching.
