On the martial tea gathering, Xie Zhiqiu had brought the top three young warriors from the Eastern regions with him. He thought that he would be able to beat all of the top young warriors from the Southern regions without having to do anything himself. He had guessed the beginning, but could not predict the end. In the beginning, the top three young warriors from the Eastern regions were indeed unstoppable. First, they had beaten Li Xiaoyun, then Jing Aoxuan. When it came to Chu Zhongtian, although the situation was not as good as he thought, his defense was way too powerful, and there was nothing that could be done about it. Judging from the surface, even if Chu Zhongtian did not lose, he would still be at an absolute disadvantage.
In the end, it was Ye Chen's turn.
As soon as Ye Chen showed up, he had easily beaten Shadowless Whip Cui Yinghao and One Blade Ling Luohan. Even someone as powerful as Xie Zhiqiu had lost to him without being able to fight back.
The four had come with great power, but they had been forced back, leaving behind the legend of Ye Chen's invincibility.
Xie Zhiqiu knew that without reaching the Sea of Souls Realm, he would not be able to train his Demon Qi Power Spell to a higher level. Therefore, it would be hard for him to beat Ye Chen. Therefore, after returning to the Eastern regions, he had been training hard, trying his best. Finally, he had reached the Sea of Souls Realm half a year ago. In the following half a year, he had trained his Demon Qi Power Spell to the fifth level, which allowed him to increase his battling power by five times. Compared to the Astral Reaching Realm, his power was like heaven and earth.
After reaching the Sea of Souls Realm, Xie Zhiqiu's confidence had increased drastically. He had been thinking about beating Ye Chen and restoring his glory. But, the Sky Martial Pavilion only opened once a year. If he missed this chance, he would have to wait for another year. Therefore, he planned to go to the pavilion to test his potential first before finding Ye Chen for revenge.
What he did not expect was that Ye Chen had also come to the Sky Martial Pavilion. There was no need for him to find him at all.
"Huh! This time, I will beat you like a dead dog!"
Thinking about how he had lost, Xie Zhiqiu tightened his fists, his face not looking very friendly.
"This guy is unrepentant and still wants to cause trouble for Ye Chen."
Li Xiaoyun and Jing Aoxuan sneered. They did not know how powerful Ye Chen was right now, but they knew that he was already so powerful at the Astral Reaching Realm. Wouldn't he be even more powerful after reaching the Sea of Souls Realm?
The test was fast. Ling Tianhao and Miao Yin also went up to take the test.
After a while, the names of the two people appeared on the wall. They were respectively 285th and 276th. This was a pretty good ranking. There were so many geniuses on the continent, and it was not easy to be ranked within the top 300 in terms of aptitude.
"Ye Chen, let's go take the test too!"
There were fewer and fewer people. Li Xiaoyun walked into the testing circle first, followed by Jing Aoxuan. Ye Chen nodded and walked into one of the ten testing circles.
"Yan Fengfeng, he does not seem to be from the Mysterious School, right?"
Hai Wuya told Yan Fengfeng.
Yan Fengfeng said, "He is a martial genius from the South Rudra Region."
"South Rudra Region?"
Hai Wuya frowned. A small martial genius from the South Rudra Region was being led by Yan Fengfeng herself? What a great honor!
Yan Fengfeng laughed, "Hai Wuya, do not underestimate him. In the battle between the martial geniuses in the Sky Martial Region, he will definitely be one of the main characters."
"Hehe!"
Hai Wuya chuckled, but did not say anything. He thought that Yan Fengfeng was just trying to trick him. The Sky Martial Region was not some region or some region; it was the center of the whole continent. All of the top martial geniuses were gathered there, and it would not be easy to make a name for oneself, not to mention being one of the main characters.
Yan Fengfeng did not try to explain, because she knew that it would be useless. If she wanted to convince people, she would have to show some results. Anything else would just be empty talk.
It was a dead silent world, without any signs of life. On the barren land, a blurry human figure was forming, and it was getting clearer and clearer. Facial features and clothes could be seen clearly. It was indeed Ye Chen in blue robes. Right then, he looked cold and numb, as if he did not have any consciousness at all.
All of a sudden, Ye Chen's numb eyes flickered, and there was a light in them.
"Mental consciousness bodies do not have consciousness, and must be controlled by the main body." Ye Chen had an understanding. Mental consciousness bodies also had different levels. Obviously, this was the lowest level mental consciousness body. The higher level mental consciousness bodies could grow from not having consciousness to having consciousness, which was equivalent to a real clone, and did not need to be controlled by the main body.
Whoo!
A hundred meters in front of Ye Chen, a human figure appeared. It was a sword artist in yellow robes. His cultivation and will were the same as Ye Chen's, but his face was blurry.
"Hm? He has a sword, but I don't! "
With that thought in mind, a sword appeared in Ye Chen's hand.
"One more!"
A sword appeared on Ye Chen's waist as well.
Shoo!
The sword artist in yellow robes charged over, throwing out a killing attack right from the start. It was a completely different attack from Ye Chen's. The sword light was sharp like a circular arc, sweeping across the sky.
With a shake of his body, Ye Chen turned into a sword light, brushing past his opponent's sword light. The longsword in his hand was taken out of its scabbard, and with a flash, it was instantly extinguished.
Puff!
A head with an indistinguishable face flew up, and the sword artist in yellow robes slid on the ground, gradually dissipating into nothingness.
One sword strike, a head flew off.
"The first level is not difficult. Although the virtual mental consciousness body's cultivation and will are the same as mine, its combat techniques are too standard. There is nothing special about it, and it is like a preset program."
Ye Chen silently evaluated the virtual mental consciousness body's combat strength.
Whoo! Whoo!
About three breaths later, two more sword artists in yellow robes appeared. These two's faces were blurry, but their sharp gazes were like beams of light, locking onto Ye Chen.
After locking onto him, it was time for a fierce attack, an attack that would not stop until one of them died.
"Kill!"
Ye Chen did not retreat or evade, but rushed toward the two.
Puff!
Puff!
The three of them passed each other.
The next moment!
Two heads flew into the sky, but there was no blood.
...
"The pressure is getting greater and greater!"
In a separate mental world, Li Xiaoyun rushed into the crowd, surrounded by a total of sixteen people. These sixteen people's cultivation and will were similar to his, and the power of their killing moves was not weaker than his. Even if their combat techniques were too simple, and there was no Spiritual Qi, they had sixteen times more people than him. Sixteen people besieging him, the pressure was unimaginable.
Bang!
The iron fan closed, and Li Xiaoyun smashed the heads of three people in a row. However, he was punched in the back, and his body staggered out, passing through the gap between the two people in front of him.
"Seven Star Crossing!"
Suddenly turning around, Li Xiaoyun performed his trump card.
...
"Royal Extreme Tyrannical Fist!"
"Royal Extreme World Shocking Fist!"
Jing Aoxuan did not blindly attack like before, and if she did not advance, she would retreat. Her body moved like lightning, wreaking havoc. With every punch, one person would be sent flying, and the strong power of thunder and lightning was like a chain of lightning in the starry sky, one after another.
"Huh!"
With a groan, Jing Aoxuan had suffered a serious internal injury. She was besieged by sixteen people whose cultivation and will were not weaker than hers after all. Defeating them was not something impossible, but she would have to pay a heavy price as well.
After the time of tea …
"Eh? Who is Li Xiaoyun? He is ranked one hundred and eight."
"And Jing Aoxuan, ninety-five!"
The names on the wall flickered, and two more blue names appeared. They were indeed Li Xiaoyun and Jing Aoxuan.
"Not bad. That Jing Aoxuan is actually ranked above you." Xie Zhiqiu smiled lightly and said to Ling Luohan beside him.
Ling Luohan said, "Their talents are indeed not weaker than mine."
Although Ling Luohan was ranked above Li Xiaoyun and Jing Aoxuan, his talent was not necessarily above the two. After all, the relationship between talent and power was not completely proportional. It was much more complicated and hard to understand. It could only be said that there was a huge relationship.
The real bodies opened their eyes. Li Xiaoyun and Jing Aoxuan smiled bitterly. They had both failed in the fifth challenge.
"I killed thirteen. How many did you kill?" Li Xiaoyun asked.
Jing Aoxuan said, "Fifteen!"
"That's too bad!"
There were sixteen people in the fifth challenge. After killing fifteen, there was only one left.
"Ye Chen has not come out yet!"
Li Xiaoyun looked at Ye Chen who was in the other testing circle.
Inside the mental world of the wall …
The sword light crisscrossed like a spider web, covering hundreds of meters of space. Some of these sword lights were from the illusory mental images, and some were from Ye Chen. The sharp sword intent seemed to want to pierce through the mental world, shooting straight up into the sky. This was a world of cold sword qi.
"Kill!"
Ye Chen had pushed his battle skills to a new level. Sometimes, he would have one sword in his hand, and sometimes, he would have two swords. In the blink of an eye, no one knew how many swords he had thrown out. They only knew that as his body flashed, the illusory mental images would fall down one after another. The remaining illusory mental images were surprisingly more than twenty of them, densely packed together.
This was the sixth challenge!
Ye Chen had rushed to the sixth challenge in one breath. His opponents were thirty-two illusory mental images.
Facing thirty-two illusory mental images, although it was not easy for Ye Chen, he was not injured at all. Being able to stay uninjured in the early stage of the sixth challenge meant that he was at least in the top fifteen. It should be known that Xie Zhiqiu had only beaten back one person in the sixth challenge before being killed instantly without any chance to fight back.
Ye Chen twisted his body in the air, dodging a wave of sword light. He suddenly stepped back, dodging another wave of sword light. His body turned into a shadow, moving close to the ground. Dodging another wave of sword light, Ye Chen had integrated dodging skills into his battle skills. While dodging, he was also attacking. While attacking, he was also dodging. It was hard to tell whether he was dodging or attacking. He only knew that it was impossible to lock his body.
Swoosh!
Three heads flew in a straight line. Ye Chen stopped his body and turned around. All the illusory mental images had disappeared.
"The seventh challenge, I wonder how difficult it is."
In the outside world.
"What? The test is not over yet? Could it be that he has reached the sixth challenge?"
Many people began to pay attention to Ye Chen. They could clearly see that Ye Chen had taken the test together with Li Xiaoyun and Jing Aoxuan. According to the normal passing speed, he should have reached the sixth challenge by now. Of course, they did not expect that Ye Chen's passing speed was even faster than they had expected. He had already reached the seventh challenge.
"Amazing! As long as he could hold on for a while in the sixth challenge, he would be able to enter the top fifteen. If he could pass the sixth challenge, he would have a chance to enter the top ten. You should know that the higher you go, the more difficult it is, and the fewer people there are. "
"It is impossible to pass the sixth challenge. On the wall of names, only nine people have passed the sixth challenge and entered the seventh challenge. "
The sixth challenge was light red in color, and the seventh challenge was dark red. On the wall of names, besides Dugu Jue and Dantai Mingyue, only nine people had dark red names. One could imagine how difficult it was to reach the seventh challenge.
