Watching Long Yu walk out of the crowd step by step, the surrounding people all looked at him like he was a lab rat and began to whisper.
"Long Yu, be careful."
A woman's soft voice came from where Long Yu passed.
Long Yu looked sideways and saw that it was Chu Huang, the princess of the royal family, who was smiling and talking to him.
"I will, thank you very much."
Long Yu nodded and raised his head to look at Xuanji Shanhai.
More than four hundred people, including Xuanji Shanhai and the four supervisors, all focused their eyes on Long Yu with some curiosity and expectation, wanting to see what level of exotic beast he would choose.
"Long Yu, you have to think carefully. Once you make a choice, you can't change it."
Xuanji Shanhai said lightly with a playful look in his eyes.
"Upper level exotic beast."
Long Yu said.
"What?"
Xuanji Shanhai was stunned, as if he did not hear clearly.
"I mean, I choose to challenge an upper level eight exotic beast. Why, is there a problem?"
Long Yu said lightly.
Of course, he knew that this Xuanji Shanhai must have something to do with Xuanji Tianchen who had snatched the little fox. He might even be Xuanji Tianchen's elder.
In this way, there was no need for him to be polite with Xuanji Shanhai, even if the other party was the host of the Heavenly Mandate Sacred Selection!
"Of course, since you have chosen an upper level eight exotic beast, then don't regret it. Come with me."
Xuanji Shanhai hid a hint of mockery on his face, but on the surface, he did not show it. He led Long Yu into the manor.
Not only Xuanji Shanhai, but the more than four hundred people outside were all surprised.
Upper level exotic beast?
This Long Yu really dared to choose. Didn't he see that the young man of the Rank Nine True Spirit from Shuilan Country was seriously injured by a middle-level exotic beast?
"This Long Yu has clearly just stepped into the Rank Eight True Spirit, and he probably hasn't even grasped his own basic strength, yet he actually chose to challenge a Superior Beast. What a fantasy."
"That's right. These exotic beasts from the alternate dimension are not so simple. Even a middle-level exotic beast is much stronger than a Martial Cultivator of the same level, not to mention a high-level exotic beast!"
"The way I see it, this Long Yu is most likely just trying to show off. After all, whether or not he gets a score doesn't depend on whether or not he can defeat the exotic beasts. For example, didn't that fellow from the State of Shuilan also get a score?"
"That's right. This Long Yu directly challenged a high-tier exotic beast. Perhaps the judges will look at him differently and give him points for his courage, haha!"
Most people began to laugh at Long Yu's choice.
Only those who knew Long Yu didn't say anything. As for those who were friends with Long Yu, they all frowned slightly.
"Long Yu is too impulsive."
Chu Huang, who was wearing a snow-white silk robe, shook his head and said to Yan Huanmo.
"That's not necessarily true."
Tian Yutian smiled. "Based on my understanding of Long Yu, he wouldn't make such a choice without absolute confidence. Now, we just need to see how he teaches that exotic beast a lesson."
"What's the point of complimenting your friend like that?"
Yu Qianning snorted in disdain. "I'd like to see what kind of expression you'll have when he's defeated by the exotic beast!"
"I'm also looking forward to seeing what kind of expression you'll have on your face when he defeats that exotic beast."
Tian Yutian didn't back down and retorted.
"Haha, what a joke. If this kid can defeat a high-tier exotic beast, then it must mean that it's not that strong!"
Yu Qianning smiled disdainfully.
"Friend, there's no need to bicker with this kind of person. Why don't we take a closer look at how Long Yu deals with the exotic beast?"
Yan Huanmo didn't even look at Yu Qianning and said to Tian Yutian.
Tian Yutian nodded. "That's true. Long Yu wasn't weak even before he reached the Unity of True Spirit realm. Now that he's in the Eighth True Spirit realm, he's definitely stronger than I imagined."
Then, everyone turned their gaze to Long Yu who had just stepped into the manor.
Looking at Long Yu's back, there were many people who were cursing him.
"Hmph, this human is too arrogant. It's best if he's killed by that high-tier exotic beast."
Among a group of demon cultivators from the Soul Valley Demon Kingdom, a pair of sword-like wings spread out from the Gui Valley Wing Envoy, Sword Wing, snorted at Hong Yu.
"It's best if he doesn't."
A cold light flashed in the eyes of the rainbow-winged Hong Yu, "This human killed Zi Gan of our clan. It'd be too much of a pity if he died in the hands of a high-tier exotic beast. It'd be best if we could take revenge ourselves."
"You're right. My sword doesn't mind slashing him again."
Sword Wing's eyes flashed with an ominous glint. "Last time, he was lucky enough to survive. This time, I won't give him any chance!"
On the other side.
A total of four to five disciples from the Ten Thousand Arrows Sect from the Northern Sea Kingdom were gathered together.
"Junior Brother Xu Qiangyi, I heard that this Long Yu killed your Rank Nine True Spirit City Guard Commander in your hometown, Border City. Is that true?"
"This matter has already spread. Of course it's true. Speaking of this, a 9th True Spirit Layer City Guard Army vice commander actually lost to a brat, this is really funny. "
"Haha, most of the people from Border City are just idiots. Of course, our Junior Brother Xu Qiangyi is talented. He will definitely be able to take revenge for his City Guard Commander in this Saint Selection."
The mockery and ridicule made Xu Qiangyi extremely unhappy.
"Don't talk about our Border City, didn't our Ten Thousand Arrows Sect suffer a lot at the hands of that brat?"
Xu Qiangyi coldly snorted, "Even Senior Brother Qiong fell to this brat's hands. In comparison, a mere City Guard Commander in our Border City is nothing!"
Xu Qiangyi clearly did not have a good relationship with these Ten Thousand Arrows Sect disciples.
Both sides continued to argue, and at the same time, their anger towards Long Yu grew deeper and deeper. If they were given the chance, they would definitely not hesitate to make a move against Long Yu and get rid of him.
Long Yu did not pay much attention to the situation outside the manor.
He followed Xuanji Shan Hai into the manor, and felt an even denser and strange aura assaulting his face.
"This aura does not seem to exist in this world. It seems like the strange beasts that come from another dimension have a completely different body structure from us …"
Long Yu frowned slightly.
He did not choose to challenge a superior beast without thinking. Originally, when he was at the Rank Seven True Spirit, he could fight against Yu Ruyan, who was at the Rank Nine True Spirit, and even a Rank Nine expert like Tian Yutian.
Now that he had stepped into the Rank Eight True Spirit, even if he were to fight against Tian Yutian, it would be relatively easy.
With this kind of strength, it shouldn't be a problem for him to deal with a Rank Eight True Spirit beast, right?
Ever since Long Yu had stepped onto the martial path, he had never suffered a loss against an opponent of the same level. This strange beast from another dimension would most likely not be able to make Long Yu suffer a loss.
Since that was the case, there was no need for Long Yu to be a coward, and he directly chose to challenge the superior beast.
Not long after, two guards of the 88th Star Beast Garden came out with another crystal beast cage.
Long Yu raised his head to take a look, only to see that amidst the lingering clouds, the strange beast in the crystal beast cage was still the same strange beast that had appeared before, with withered branches intertwining together.
"Get ready."
As Xuanji Shan Hai spoke, he raised his hand, and a tyrannical force surged out, opening the crystal beast cage in an instant!
He said that he was ready, but he did not give Long Yu any chance to prepare, and directly released the strange beast.
Long Yu had just felt the heart-palpitating aura emitted by the strange beast, and was about to face the fierce beast's attack. If it was anyone else, they might not be able to react in time and be injured by the strange beast.
But who was Long Yu?
How could he panic just because of a small action from Xuanji Shan Hai?
"Imperial Water Vortex!"
Long Yu raised his hand, and nine water vortexes condensed. Due to the surrounding clouds and mist, the speed at which he used the Water Manipulation Martial Skill was extremely fast, and it was condensed in an instant.
The nine water vortexes instantly surged towards the withered branch beast that had crawled out of the crystal beast cage.
During this process, Long Yu finally had the time to carefully observe the withered branch beast. He discovered that this thing really did not have any eyes, ears, mouth or nose, but there were small holes on its withered branches.
This kind of strange beast should be relying on the small holes on its withered branches to breathe, maintain its life, or sense the situation around it.
"It looks like an octopus …"
Long Yu thought.
Compared to an octopus, the withered branch beast in front of him was only missing a head, and its limbs were all withered branches. At first glance, it looked like a pile of dry firewood.
The nine water vortexes quickly collided with the withered branch beast!
With such a tyrannical power, if it was an ordinary Rank Eight True Spirit Martial Cultivator, even if it was a Rank Nine True Spirit Martial Cultivator, they might not be able to withstand it.
When Long Yu stepped into the Rank Eight True Spirit, his basic strength had doubled. Adding on the transformation of the Nine You Dragon Seal, his casual attack was several times stronger than before.
However, facing these nine water vortexes, the withered branch beast acted as if it did not see them at all. Instead, it charged towards the water vortexes!
At this moment, Long Yu became vigilant.
He raised his hand and quickly formed a layer of Yellow Springs Barrier, blocking his entire body!
If the water vortex was useless against this withered branch beast, then it would be useless for Long Yu to use the Imperial Water Curtain to defend himself. Thus, he chose to use the Yellow Springs Barrier.
The Yellow Springs Barrier was formed from the Nine Hells Qi. In terms of strangeness and eeriness, it was definitely better than this withered branch beast in front of him!
The following situation was as Long Yu had expected.
The withered branch beast passed through the nine water vortexes, but it did not suffer any damage at all. Those withered branch like limbs continued to squirm, actually dispersing the tyrannical power of the water vortexes!
The Imperial Water Vortex was completely useless against this withered branch beast.
"This is the Imperial Water Martial Skill. What does this child have to do with the Seven Calamities Star?"
Xuanji Shan Hai watched from the side and immediately narrowed his eyes, "It's a pity that no matter what, this Imperial Water Martial Skill is useless against the strange beast of the Withered Branch Race …"
Just as he thought of this, a scene that shocked him appeared.
The withered branch beast easily broke through the Imperial Water Vortex and originally wanted to launch a sneak attack on Long Yu. But right at this moment, the Yellow Springs Barrier that was instantly formed in front of Long Yu seemed to have caused the withered branch beast to instantly become afraid, as it let out an ear-piercing hissing sound!
"It seems like the Nine Hells Qi is able to restrain this thing?"
