"Ye Chen, you and I are both new to the Thunder Region. Why don't we take a stroll around?" Murong Qingcheng also didn't have the intention to go back. As one of the top geniuses in South Rudra Region, she always wished to look around and see how many powerful geniuses there were in this world. Staying in one place for too long would be detrimental to cultivation. It would be like looking at the sky from the bottom of a well.
Ye Chen nodded, "That's exactly what I was thinking."
The two had the same destination, so they casually chose a direction.
On the way, after some observation, the two found out that this region was one of the four great danger zones of the Thunder Region, the Thunder Cry Tomb. Its danger was not inferior to the Blood Demon Battlefield in the Star Lake.
Of course, the danger of the Thunder Cry Tomb was only relative to people below the Extreme Astral Reaching realm. Once one's battle power reached the Extreme Astral Reaching realm, one could basically move unhindered in the Thunder Cry Tomb. When Murong Qingcheng met Ye Chen, she already had the strength of the Extreme Astral Reaching realm. Later on, she obtained the Demonic Evil Stone and condensed her martial soul embryo, further increasing her battle power. Later on, she even transformed her martial soul embryo into a demonic soul embryo, and was close to the critical point. She was only a step away from the true demonic soul. Her battle power was not inferior to ordinary Sea of Soul realm experts. If she cultivated the Soul Extinguishing Wave, she could almost rival Ye Chen.
As for Ye Chen, even he himself didn't know how powerful he was. Sky Thunder Cut, Sword Steps, martial soul embryo, three great attribute sword intents, Void Shattering Finger, any one of them was enough to shock the world, not to mention the Undying Body Scroll he had just obtained.
Exiting the Thunder Cry Tomb without any danger, the two rushed toward the nearest city.
Ten days later, the two arrived at the bustling Thunder Lake City. Thunder Lake City and Thunder Lake Sword City only differed by a single word. It was the only major city in the Thunder Region, the Thunder Empire.
"Thunder Region is worthy of being the strongest region in the southern sector. The average battle power of the young geniuses far surpasses that of South Rudra Region." Murong Qingcheng said with a sigh.
Ye Chen said, "Humans are social animals, so they will always be affected by the environment. The martial culture in the Thunder Region is undoubtedly stronger than the South Rudra Region."
Along the way, the two often saw geniuses who were about the same age as them. Because of Murong Qingcheng's beauty, there were also young geniuses who would come over to talk to her. Not a single one of these young geniuses wasn't an Astral Reaching expert. From their mouths, they learned that they were quite famous in a certain region. However, when asked about the whole Thunder Region, they were all speechless. They said that without reaching Late Astral Reaching realm, there was simply no way to compete with them. Even if they reached Late Astral Reaching realm, they would only be at the bottom.
This made Ye Chen and Murong Qingcheng rather speechless.
It should be known that in the South Rudra Region, being able to reach the Astral Reaching Realm under the age of thirty would be enough to make one famous in the whole region. But in this place, it was nothing.
As one of the most important cities of the Thunder Empire, the Thunder Pool City had an astonishing flow of people. Normally, the geniuses of the other countries in the Thunder Region would use this place as a gathering point, and there was an endless stream of cultivators coming and going.
The Storm Restaurant was one of the three biggest restaurants of the Thunder Pool City. It had five floors, and each floor could accommodate a large number of customers. It was the favorite place for young geniuses and rich and powerful disciples.
In the lobby of the fifth floor, four young geniuses were talking loudly.
"I just heard that there was a strange phenomenon in the Thunder Cry Tomb. A several hundred meters wide lightning ball broke out of the ground and soared into the sky."
"Since the Thunder Cry Tomb is one of the four dangerous places of the Thunder Region, it also has some mysteries."
"Cough, we've come all the way to the Thunder Empire. This is not the time to talk about strange things. Let's talk about the martial tea gathering hosted by the Thunder Princess. This is the most important event for the young generation of the Southern Sector. It happens every two years. The last one was hosted by the Edict Prince, and this one is the Thunder Princess' turn. "
"You're right, let's talk about the martial tea gathering."
"In recent years, the martial tea gathering has become more and more influential. In the past, it was only attended by geniuses of our Thunder Region and the neighboring regions. But, starting from the last one, it has already spread to the entire Southern Sector, including the regions closest to it. The geniuses of the Southern Sector all consider it an honor to participate."
"Of course! Didn't you see who hosted the last two tea gatherings? The Edict Prince and the Thunder Princess are both leading figures of the Southern Sector, and their strength is unfathomable. Although they haven't reached the Sea of Soul realm, they've both defeated Sea of Soul realm experts."
On the west side by the window, Ye Chen and Murong Qingcheng were listening to their conversation.
Murong Qingcheng said, "I've heard about the Martial Tea Gathering. They're right. In recent years, the martial tea gathering has become more and more famous, especially since the last one hosted by the Edict Prince. It has become a palace where the top geniuses of the Southern Sector gather. And, the Thunder Princess hosting this tea gathering is a genius on par with the Edict Prince. She's known as one of the top five geniuses of the Southern Sector."
Ye Chen lightly drank a mouthful of wine. He had heard about the Thunder Princess from Senior Brother Wang of the Dragon God Celestial Palace. She had the Thunder Spirit Body, which allowed her to cultivate thunder Zhen Yuan with half the effort. She could comprehend thunder mentality or thunder profound several times faster than ordinary people. One year of cultivation was equivalent to several years of bitter cultivation for others.
"Two years ago, the geniuses of our Thunder Region were still the most impressive. I wonder what kind of geniuses will appear this time." The four seemed to be in high spirits, and their voices were getting louder and louder as they drank. "Comparing the quantity and quality of the geniuses, of course, our Thunder Region would be the best.
However, the region where Edict Prince is from is not to be underestimated either. There are two or three other regions that are not at a disadvantage, and are right behind the Thunder Region. Other regions such as Misty Snow Region and Wavy Cloud Region are also capable of producing powerful geniuses. On the contrary, South Rudra Region is at the bottom as usual. Last time, there was only one Sikong Sheng. Although his strength is not bad, he can't be ranked at the top in the whole Southern Region. I really didn't expect him to be one of the top geniuses in South Rudra Region. "
"Hehe, any top warrior from our Thunder Region would be able to sweep across the whole South Rudra Region. Even you and me can be the king of the whole South Rudra Region."
"South Rudra Region is the last place, but that Mountain Region is not any better."
A young man sitting near the four could not hold it in anymore. His face turned pale as he sneered, "Nonsense! Do you think you can talk about all the geniuses in the world? "
Hearing him, one of them looked over with a cold expression and said casually, "Please!"
"Zhao Feng from the Mountain Region."
"Hahaha!"
Hearing him say that he was from the Mountain Region, the four started to laugh out loud.
"As far as I know, only the Cold Moon Spear and the Star Competition Mountain are a bit more powerful. Who are you, Zhao Feng? Don't come out and embarrass yourself."
The four did not give Zhao Feng any face at all.
"You only talk about being powerful. Do you dare to fight me?"
Zhao Feng suddenly stood up and yelled.
"Why not? It is just that the blade is merciless. You deserve to be wounded by me." The young warrior in yellow did not even stand up as he said with a cold voice.
"What a great skill!"
Zhao Feng's weapon was an iron spear. Pouring his Zhen yuan into it, the iron spear swept out horizontally. The spear light turned into a roaring huge wolf, attacking toward his opponent.
"Break!"
The young man in yellow did not even take out his weapon. He made a grabbing gesture in the air with his right hand, and the huge wolf that was formed by the spear light was grabbed by the neck, shattering into pieces.
"Go back!"
With a twist of his right hand, the shattered spear light shot out at an even faster speed. Ding! Ding!
Dang! Dang!
Sparks flew everywhere as Zhao Feng was blown back while holding his iron spear. He spat out a mouthful of blood, crashing through the walls of the fifth floor before landing on the street outside.
"So weak." The young man in yellow curled his lips.
Seeing this, some of the geniuses from the Mountain Region on the fifth floor lowered their heads. Zhao Feng was not a nameless brat in the Mountain Region. He was at least ranked in the top fifteen or even top ten. Even he had been defeated, so it would be useless for them to go up. Plus, it seemed like the other had not even used seventy to eighty percent of his power. How could they fight back?
Unfortunately, the more they acted like this, the more the young man in yellow and his companions looked down on them. They felt that they had a higher evaluation of the Mountain Region, so they started to laugh out loud.
Someone next to him laughed, "Luo Qiu, I haven't seen you for a couple of months, and your power has improved again. I think you will be able to show off a bit in this tea gathering."
The person who had attacked was quite famous in the Thunder region. He had reached the peak level Late Astral Reaching Realm a year ago, and had formed his martial spirit three months ago. It was exactly because of this that Luo Qiu and his three companions had the right to be so arrogant and look down on the South Rudra Region and the Mountain Region.
Luo Qiu said lightly, "Beating him is not worth mentioning. If I mention it, it would only be an insult to me. But, I have to say something. People from the Mountain Region and the South Rudra Region should all go back now, in case they embarrass themselves in the tea gathering and lower the standard of the event."
As he spoke, his eyes scanned around the fifth floor, his head slightly raised.
The warriors from the Mountain Region were very frustrated, their faces turning red. It was their first time in the Thunder region, and they were planning to go to the tea gathering to see the level of the martial geniuses in the whole South Region. But, who knew that they would be defeated before the tea gathering even started.
"Let's go."
Some of the warriors from the Mountain Region could not stand the atmosphere anymore, so they lowered their heads and left with their companions. Only a small part of them stayed behind.
Ye Chen put down his wine cup and said to Murong Qingcheng, "Which one of us will do it?"
It was not Ye Chen's style to stay low-key after being humiliated. Whether it was the South Rudra Region or the warriors from the South Rudra Region, they were all one.
Murong Qingcheng was about to reply when she suddenly said, "It seems like we do not need to do it anymore."
"I, Gu Youyun, will battle with you."
Two young people walked up the stairs. The leading young lady was indeed the No.1 of the Hidden Dragon Rank from the South Rudra Region, Gu Youyun, a disciple of the Floating Mountain Martial School and the descendant of the Stone King.
Gu Youyun had just arrived at the Wind and Rain Restaurant when she heard Luo Qiu and his companions laughing at the South Rudra Region from the fourth floor, even asking them to leave the Thunder region.
"So it is a girl. Are you from the South Rudra Region or the Mountain Region?" Luo Qiu did not take Gu Youyun seriously either.
The young man standing right next to Gu Youyun said without thinking, "South Rudra Region."
"Haha, you guys come together! Saves me the trouble of taking care of you one by one. "
If he could kick all of the warriors from the South Rudra Region and the Mountain Region out of the Thunder region, it would definitely make Luo Qiu famous. He licked his lips, showing his arrogance.
