At the bottom of the Stairway to Heaven, all the disciples of the four big sects had finished their preparations. Each and every one of them were in high spirits, and the atmosphere was filled with the smell of gunpowder. The relationship between the four big sects had always been hostile, and even in this Qi Province competition, there were still many conflicts.
It could be seen that the relationship between the Tianjian Gate and the Black Sect wasn't good. Perhaps because Li Wu Shuang and the Little Devil King were enemies, the disciples of both sides had started verbally attacking each other.
The disciples of the Burning Sky Pavilion had also shown obvious hostility towards the Black Sect. Not long ago, the genius of the Burning Sky Pavilion, Wu Sheng, had been defeated by Guan Yiyun from the Black Sect, and this had caused a lot of disciples to take it to heart. Luckily, the appearance of the Northern and Southern Dynasties had helped the Burning Sky Pavilion regain some face. Even so, it couldn't stop the hostility between the disciples. This kind of hostility would only become more intense after the competition.
Not to mention the disciples, even the four geniuses at the top of the Stairway to Heaven didn't like each other. If it wasn't for them being the hosts of the Qi Province competition, these four men wouldn't have been able to stand together peacefully. They would have started fighting each other as soon as they met.
Below the Stairway to Heaven, the disciples of the four big sects were looking at the four men at the top of the Stairway to Heaven with admiration in their eyes.
"Senior disciple Nan Bei is so handsome, he is the number one genius in the Qi Province, and he is my idol. If one day I can reach his level, that would be great!"
"Get lost, why don't you take a piss and look at yourself? You think you are worthy of being compared with senior disciple Nan Bei? How shameless!"
"What are you being so arrogant for? Isn't it just the Northern and Southern Dynasties? If it wasn't for our senior disciple Guan's abnormal performance, there wouldn't have been any problems for your Northern and Southern Dynasties! "
"Bastard, what are you talking about? How dare you disrespect our senior disciple Nan Bei? Do you believe I won't destroy your Black Sect? "
… …..
The sound of the quarrel was very intense, and it seemed like they were on the verge of fighting. Yi Qing Zi and Ling Ao were quite calm. After all, they were both geniuses, and entering the inner circle was a matter of course. In the near future, even in the inner circle, they would have a high status. However, the way they looked at Bai Hua Die and the Northern and Southern Dynasties was still filled with admiration.
The calmest ones were the Little Devil King and Li Wu Shuang. Whether it was Guan Yiyun, Liang Xiao, or even the Northern and Southern Dynasties, they did not put any of them in their eyes. This was the pride that came from their bones. Maybe they admired the four from the Northern and Southern Dynasties, but they would never blindly worship them, because they had the same great potential, and they had the confidence to surpass them.
"Begin."
The Northern and Southern Dynasties announced loudly, opening the curtains for the first round. As soon as he finished speaking, the war drums sounded again.
Huala!
Nearly 700 men stood side by side in a row. The Stairway to Heaven was very wide, and even if it could accommodate a thousand people, it wouldn't feel crowded.
There were a total of 100 stone steps on the Stairway to Heaven, and each step was one meter tall. For Mortal Core warriors, they could easily take a step that was one meter tall, so it was nothing.
Therefore, when the Northern and Southern Dynasties finished speaking, some of them dashed forward like a leopard, and in the blink of an eye, they had climbed up three steps. They were like dragons and tigers, and it was an imposing scene.
But, when many of them stepped onto the fourth step, they immediately felt a slight pressure, and their speed slowed down. The pressure came from the combination of four Late Heavenly Core warriors.
Besides, these four Late Heavenly Core warriors were not ordinary Late Heavenly Core warriors. If they worked together, perhaps even an ordinary Early Divine Core warrior would be no match for them.
The pressure on the Stairway to Heaven came from energy pressure, Yuan energy pressure, and most importantly, soul pressure. This made it harder for the disciples participating in the competition to climb up. In other words, this year's competition would be much more difficult than the previous years.
Guan Yiyun, who was wearing a white robe, raised his head and looked at the crowd. With a cold expression on his handsome face, he said with a loud voice, "Besides the four big sects, those who want to participate in the Stairway to Heaven can come up now. If anyone can get into the top 30, he or she will immediately become a disciple of the four big sects."
Right after Guan Yiyun's words left his mouth, the crowd immediately became restless. All of them were looking at each other, looking at each other, but no one stepped forward. Everyone knew that Guan Yiyun's words were just a symbolic statement from the four big sects. Under normal circumstances, no one would be stupid enough to challenge him.
Suddenly, a few pairs of eyes stared at Jiang Chen. Someone said in a mocking tone, "Hey, buddy, didn't you say you want to kill the Little Devil King? Why didn't you do it? "
"Haha, of course he's scared. If he can't do it, then don't talk big. This is too embarrassing."
"That's right. Come on, let's all look down on him."
… …..
Jiang Chen was instantly speechless. He didn't even do anything, but he was still being ridiculed. He stared at Da Huang Dog fiercely. Those words weren't said by him, but by Da Huang Dog.
However, Jiang Chen was really going to participate in this competition.
"Fine, I'll go. All of you, get out of my way."
Jiang Chen waved his sleeves and strode towards the Whirling Sun Square. This action of his surprised many people.
"This kid can't be serious, right? Why doesn't he know how strong he is? Competing with the four big sects, isn't he just looking for trouble? "
"Even if he goes, he'll just be making a fool of himself. I guess he won't be able to walk up to twenty steps."
"Twenty? You think too highly of him. Look at him, he looks so weak. I guess he won't even be able to last ten steps. "
Behind Jiang Chen, the ridicule became even more intense.
"What do you guys know? He's the greatest genius. This Stairway to Heaven is just child's play to him. He will definitely get the first place."
Da Huang Dog said arrogantly.
"Get lost. This dog's words aren't reliable at all. First place? More like last place."
Someone scolded. He just wanted to slap this dog away.
"Damn you. Do you dare to bet? One hundred Human Elixir, one to ten. Who dares to come?"
Da Huang Dog said very seriously. His eyes flashed with a hint of cunning.
"Damn, one to ten. Damn dog, are you serious? How are we betting? "
Someone suddenly became interested.
"Isn't that simple? Each of you bet one hundred Human Elixir. If that kid gets the first place, you guys lose. The Human Elixir will belong to me. If he doesn't get the first place, I will pay you one thousand."
Da Huang Dog's face was full of righteousness.
"You are the most unreliable dog. You can't be trusted. What if you go back on your words?"
Someone said.
"Look at your useless faces. So many of you, are you afraid that I will run away? You guys can drown me with your saliva. Go, go, go. If you want to bet, don't bet. If you don't want to bet, just leave. Anyway, this kid will definitely get the first place. "
Da Huang Dog wagged his tail, showing an expression of looking down on them.
"Puppy dog, what are you doing? You are going to get into trouble again. "
Yan Chen Yu's voice reached Da Huang Dog's ears. This dog actually wanted to use her Big Brother Jiang Chen to bet with someone else. This was too unfair.
"Only an idiot wouldn't want to make money. Little Yu, you just stand aside and don't talk. Today, we are going to make a fortune."
Da Huang Dog was definitely a sinister guy. He wouldn't let go of any chance to make a fortune.
"Let's bet. Even if you beat me to death, I don't believe that kid can get the first place. I bet two hundred."
"I bet two hundred as well. I bet all of my assets. If you lose, you have to pay me two thousand."
Someone reminded him.
"Don't worry. I don't have anything else, but I have a lot of Human Elixir. If you don't trust me, you can take out the Human Elixir and give it to this lady here. She can keep it for now."
Da Huang turned around and looked at Yan Chen Yu.
Everyone else also looked at this girl who was wearing a purple veil. Their eyes couldn't help but brighten up. They were not idiots. With just one glance, they could tell that even if this girl was wearing a veil, she was still an extremely beautiful existence.
"Okay, I will give it to this lady first. I will bet one hundred."
"I will bet as well."
"Haha, damn dog, just wait to pay up. With the Little Devil King and Li Wu Shuang here, no matter how capable that kid is, he will not be able to get the first place."
"First place my ass. I still think he won't be able to make it past twenty steps."
"Damn it, if this dog can't pay up, we will stew him."
… …..
At this moment, everyone was fighting to place their bets. In just a few minutes, more than a hundred people had placed their bets. Yan Chen Yu had collected a total of fifteen thousand Human Elixir. Besides that, the commotion had attracted a lot of people's attention. They all rushed over, and when they found out why they were placing their bets, they were so excited that they almost jumped up.
"Fuck, someone who isn't from the four big sects wants to get the first place? Isn't that just a fantasy? Let's bet, let's bet! "
Someone had even bet his own money into the bet.
Da Huang Dog's grin was so wide that it almost reached the back of his ears. Both of his dog eyes were filled with little stars. This was a huge windfall, and it came so easily. Others might not know about Jiang Chen, but he did. This kid was really strange. This little Stairway to Heaven was nothing to him. Even if a Divine Core warrior were to fight him, they still wouldn't be able to suppress him.
"Hehe, puppy dog, you're so mean! Big bro Jiang Chen loves Human Elixir the most!"
Yan Chen Yu giggled as she patted the dog's head.
With one hand placed behind his back, Jiang Chen walked step by step towards the Stairway to Heaven. He looked calm and unhurried. Looking at the disciples of the four big sects who were fighting each other to climb the stairs, a faint smile could be seen on his face.
When the four men from the Northern and Southern Dynasties saw Jiang Chen, their eyes lit up. Putting everything else aside, just Jiang Chen's bearing alone was something no ordinary man could compare with.
On the Stairway to Heaven, someone had reached the tenth step. The pressure was huge, and his forehead was covered in sweat. The higher he climbed, the greater the pressure.
"What a huge pressure, I feel like my legs are filled with lead. The four geniuses working together is too strong, even my soul is trembling. With my current condition, I'm afraid I won't be able to make it to the twentieth step, this is so embarrassing!"
