Hiss! What happened on the fighting ring was clearly seen by everyone. They couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.
Nie Tian's methods were too cruel. Sha Xuan had already knelt down and begged for mercy, but he still killed him without hesitation.
Compared to the current Nie Tian, Nie Tian's methods when he was competing for the top 64 were too kind.
After Nie Tian killed Sha Xuan, the black sand on the fighting platform disappeared instantly and the world became clear again.
The Heaven's Choice Saint Envoy stared at Nie Tian with a serious expression. It was as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't.
Nie Tian's ruthlessness had exceeded his expectations.
He had originally thought that Nie Tian would not have such a strong temperament at such a young age.
But now, it seemed that he was completely wrong. Nie Tian was far more powerful than he had imagined.
Nie Tian's strength lay not only in his talent and strength, but also in his character.
Talent was only one aspect of a martial artist's achievements in the Martial Dao. What was more important was the martial will.
If one's Martial Will wasn't strong enough, no matter how talented one was, it was impossible for one to go far.
The Martial Will that the Heaven's Chosen Saint Envoy saw on Nie Tian caused him to tremble in fear.
He had seen countless geniuses of the Saints' World. He had even seen geniuses who stood at the apex of the Saints' World, but their martial wills were nowhere near Nie Tian's.
"If this person was born in the Saints' World, he would definitely be a monstrous genius." The eyes of the Heaven's Choice Saint Envoy trembled slightly as he looked at Nie Tian's back.
At the very beginning of the Heaven's Chosen Dao Platform test, he thought that Nie Tian was a weirdo.
But now, his understanding of Nie Tian had completely changed.
Faintly, he felt that the Heaven's Chosen Venerable was about to lose. This time, the Heaven's Chosen Star Chief would definitely be Nie Tian!
Nie Tian walked off the fighting ring with a calm expression and a faint smile on his face.
He didn't expect the power of Sky Sword Defying Sun to be so strong.
The Moon-Swallowing Earth Sword had only cut off one of the Black Sand Giant's arms, while the Sky Sword Defying Sun had directly killed the Black Sand Giant.
The most terrifying thing was that the Sky Sword Defying Sun had increased the power of Nie Tian's sword intent by several times, which was why the Black Sand Giant was unable to recover.
"Nie Tian, your Sacred Heaven Defying Sword is resonating with the Heavenly Dao Formation. If you can fuse the Sacred Heaven Defying Sword into the Heavenly Dao Formation and comprehend the Sword Formation, your battle prowess will increase once again, "the Ghost Emperor said excitedly.
The reason why Nie Tian was able to comprehend the Sky Sword Reversing Yang was precisely related to the Heavenly Dao Array within his body.
Nie Tian also sensed that there was indeed some sort of resonance between the Heavenly Dao Formation and the Sacred Heaven Defying Sword. It was very mysterious.
If he could fuse the Sacred Heaven Defying Sword into the Heavenly Law Formation and comprehend a sword formation, it would be truly terrifying.
After pondering for a moment, Nie Tian nodded and said, "I won't pay attention to the following battles. Focus on comprehending the Heavenly Dao Formation."
Initially, he wanted to pay attention to the upcoming battle, but now he felt that it was more important to increase his own strength.
"Mm." The Ghost Emperor nodded and said, "This Emperor will activate the Heavenly Dao Formation's array intent. Focus on comprehending it."
"Alright!" Nie Tian agreed, unable to conceal the excitement in his heart.
Next, Nie Tian went over to Feng Shutong and the others and directly entered a state of cultivation, focusing on comprehending the Heavenly Dao Formation.
Soon, six days passed. The top 32 battles were over, and the top 16 of the Heaven's Selection Tournament were born.
Other than the Rakshasa Maiden Yu Luo, who was unexpectedly eliminated, the other experts all advanced to the top 16.
Nie Tian stood up, his brows slightly furrowed, and his expression didn't look good.
Although he was diligently comprehending the Heavenly Dao Formation with the Ghost Emperor's help, he still felt that something was missing. It was that slight obstacle that prevented him from comprehending the sword formation.
At that moment, the Ghost Emperor said in a deep voice, "Don't be discouraged, Nie Tian. Although you haven't mastered the sword formation, your sword intent has become much stronger after being stimulated by the Formation of Heavenly Dao."
"Mhm." Nie Tian nodded, the corner of his lips curling up into a smile.
In these six days, his sword intent had indeed improved by quite a bit.
The power of the Heavenly Dao originated from the Heavenly Sacred Heart and contained the power of the Heaven and Earth Dao. It wasn't strange for it to stimulate his sword intent.
"Nie Tian, the battle for the top 16 is coming up. You must be careful. The Heaven's Choice Venerable will definitely arrange stronger opponents for you." At this time, Feng Shutong came to Nie Tian's side and transmitted his voice to him.
With his intelligence, he had already noticed that the Heaven's Choice Venerable was targeting Nie Tian, and had been arranging stronger opponents for him.
"I know." Nie Tian smiled faintly, his eyes filled with extreme determination.
From his point of view, the Heaven's Choice Venerable's arrangement wasn't a bad thing. In fact, it was beneficial to him.
If his opponents were all weaklings, what was the point of such battles?
"Nie Tian, I hope we can meet in the battle for the top 16." At this time, a gloomy voice rang out. Then, a figure appeared, staring coldly at Nie Tian. It was Shadowfire Ruinous Star.
"Shadowfire Ruinous Star, don't worry. There will definitely be a battle between us." Nie Tian looked at Shadowfire Ruinous Star, his eyes filled with murderous intent. He said Coldly, "A battle of life and death!"
"Hmph." Shadowfire Ruinous Star looked at Nie Tian and smiled Coldly. "Nie Tian, do you think you can kill me? The Army Destroyer Star of Jueying Temple isn't someone you can kill.
If I can kill you once, I can kill you twice, thrice, ten times, ten thousand times. " The corner of Nie Tian's mouth twitched as he said, "I'd like to see how many lives you have, and what is this so-called ALKAID you speak of?"
"Hmph!" Shadowfire Ruinous Star's eyes darkened. He said Coldly, "Let's wait and see!"
Then, he turned and left.
Just as Shadowfire Ruinous Star left, another figure appeared. His entire body was filled with a cold aura. His eyes were extremely dark, as if he wanted to devour someone.
This figure was none other than another strong cultivator, Dao Hanyu.
"Nie Tian, your life is mine!" Dao Hanyu's eyes were as cold as ice as he stared fixedly at Nie Tian and said, word by word.
"I'll return the same words to you," Nie Tian replied Coldly with a smile.
He had killed Dao Hanyu's sworn brother, the Bloodthirsty Wolf. The two of them were irreconcilable enemies.
Dao Hanyu was extremely strong. He was already a fifth-order False Saint.
In Nie Tian's opinion, he was second only to Shadowfire Ruinous Star.
Shadowfire Ruinous Star and Dao Hanyu would be the biggest obstacles to Nie Tian's ascension to the top.
At that moment, the voice of the Saint Envoy rang out on the Heaven's Choice Battle Platform. "Battle of the top 16, first match. Number 16 versus number 3!"
When Nie Tian and Dao Hanyu heard the words of the Heaven's Choice Saint Envoy, their eyes shone with a cold light.
Number 16 was Nie Tian, and number 3 was Dao Hanyu.
