Ye Zhen was the first to reach the top. Standing at the top, she looked down at Qiu Hen who was still rushing up. Even if she couldn't kill Qiu Hen today, after she found Ming Xi, she would not let him live.
The disciples behind her arrived one after another. They all looked at Ye Zhen in disbelief, especially the disciples of the Holy Sects. In their opinion, Senior Brother Qiu was the pride of heaven, the genius of the Holy Sects in a hundred years. He should be the first to reach the top. How could it be this unknown teenager?
Moreover, their Senior Brother Qiu was injured. In the fog just now, what happened between this teenager and Senior Brother Qiu?
"Ah Zhen!" Ye Muxin panted. She was also injured. Seeing that Ye Zhen was already standing at the top, a happy smile appeared on her face. "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Ye Zhen smiled, still looking at Qiu Hen coldly.
Qiu Hen finally reached the top before the fiftieth place. He thought that he would become the genius of the public, but now he barely made it. The surrounding disciples of the Holy Sects looked at him with ridicule, which made him very angry!
If he didn't take revenge for this, he would have a heart demon in his life! He must kill Ye Zhen!
"Ye Zhen, I must find Mo Mingxi before you and refine him into a puppet!" Qiu Hen came in front of Ye Zhen and said in a low voice.
He had been lurking in the Holy Sects for so long just to shine today. He wanted to become the unprecedented pride of heaven and let the Holy Sects regard him as the future inheritance. But now …
No, he hasn't lost yet! As long as he wins in the second round, he will also make everyone pay attention to him!
This time, he will not let Ye Zhen disturb him again.
"Do you think you can beat Ming Xi?" Ye Zhen looked at Qiu Hen contemptuously. She did not forget that there was a magical power in Ming Xi's body. She didn't understand why before, but now she understood. Not only because the spirit of the Fire Phoenix was once in Ming Xi's body, but more importantly, Ming Xi was the son of Mo Rongzhan. Although Mo Rongzhan was the avatar of Emperor Mo, he did not belong to the human world.
Qiu Hen remembered that when he was in the human world, he was once shocked by Ming Xi's astral qi. Moreover, he remembered that Ming Xi was the son of Emperor Mo!
He did not dare to reveal his true identity after returning, mainly because he was afraid that he was no match for Emperor Mo.
"You …" A murderous look appeared in Qiu Hen's eyes. Today, when he saw Ye Zhen, he knew that if this woman didn't die, she would be an obstacle to his plans in the Xuantian Continent.
"The Stairway to Heaven competition has ended." A distant and heavy voice came from the horizon. The first fifty disciples who had reached the summit were left behind, and the others were sent back.
This time, seven people from the Great Sage Sect entered the second round. Including Ye Zhen, there were a total of nine people.
Compared to previous years, the Great Sage Sect had the most people entering the second round.
The Blood Spirit Sect and Greater One Sect had twelve people each, and the Saint Sects had seventeen.
As the first place on the Stairway to Heaven this time, Ye Zhen was the center of attention at this time. Not only were all the disciples on the Stairway to Heaven looking at her, secretly guessing her identity, but even the elders who were watching the competition at this time were looking at each other, remembering Ye Zhen's face.
Li Xianrong looked at Shang Shang and saw that Shang Shang's eyes were slightly closed. It seemed like he wasn't surprised that the young man won first place.
This youngster … seems like I need to pay attention to him.
The fifty disciples on the Stairway to Heaven were sent to another plaza. The second round was a duel, and twenty-five out of the fifty would enter the third round.
The second round was a drawing of lots. Ye Zhen raised her eyes and looked at Qiu Hen.
Qiu Hen had been injured by Ye Zhen, and was currently recovering his spiritual energy. She didn't know what method he used, but the burns on his body from the Sun Taming Whip were healing at an astonishing speed.
Ye Zhen hoped that she would draw Qiu Hen in this round.
However, her wish didn't come true. She drew a disciple of the Blood Spirit Sect.
Looking at the pale faced man in front of her, Ye Zhen didn't dare to relax at all. She didn't know much about the four great sects of the Xuantian Continent, but on the way here, Dongfang Tai and Fire Phoenix had told her about the Blood Spirit Sect and Greater One Sect.
The Blood Spirit Sect mainly trained in blood sacrifices, using blood to refine flags, and using the flags to raise little ghosts as puppets. If the Blood Spirit Sect wasn't one of the four great sects, Ye Zhen would have suspected that they were from the Demon Region.
"It's your bad luck to meet me." The pale faced man said to Ye Zhen in a low voice, "You'd better admit defeat."
"Why should I admit defeat?" Ye Zhen asked calmly. She originally had no interest in this competition, but now, for the sake of killing Qiu Hen, she had to continue.
Unless he lost to someone else, she would have the chance to fight him.
"Fighting with me is different from climbing the Stairway to Heaven. You will regret it." Just as the pale faced man finished speaking, four black flags appeared behind him, with four little ghosts floating on top of them.
Ye Zhen looked at him coldly. He really did look very powerful. If it was anything else, it wouldn't matter, but she had been a ghost for two years. How could she be scared?
The Sun Taming Whip appeared in her hand. Compared to the Stairway to Heaven, the flames on her whip seemed to be even stronger. Although they were still the same size, she could clearly feel the difference.
Ye Zhen glanced sideways at Qiu Hen, who wasn't far from her. His opponent was a disciple of the Great Sage Sect. He also looked at her, his eyes filled with killing intent.
"Cast!" The pale faced man took advantage of the fact that Ye Zhen wasn't prepared to have the four little ghosts behind him pounce at her.
Ye Zhen held her breath, and the Sun Reining Whip turned into four fiery snakes the size of a wrist and rushed forward to greet the approaching ghosts.
The supreme was right. She had been unable to break through to the second level of the Clear Realm for no other reason than her lack of actual combat experience. In the battle with Qiu Hen on the Stairway to Heaven, she discovered that even the Sun Taming Whip had changed.
In order to be able to find Ming Xi, she had to make herself stronger no matter what.
Qiu Hen meant that Xi might be in the Ghost Domain Secret Realm, which was near the Flame Region … Ye Zhen thought of Chaoming, who had once wanted to capture her.
At that time, facing Chaoming, she didn't have the slightest ability to resist. She must become very strong.
As Ye Zhen thought of this, the spiritual power in her Qi Sea became stronger. The Sun Taming Whip in her hand emitted a dazzling light, burning the few ferocious little ghosts.
"What?" The pale faced man's spiritual power scattered, and he was injured by his own flag.
The Sun Taming Whip wrapped around his neck. If he didn't admit defeat, he would be completely burned by the whip.
"I admit defeat!" He hurriedly shouted, afraid that he would really be burned to death by Ye Zhen's fire whip.
Ye Zhen indifferently retracted the Sun Taming Whip. "Thank you for letting me win."
On the other side, Qiu Hen also won.
In the end, Ye Zhen and Qiu Hen both entered the third round. There were a total of 18 people in the third round. Two groups were tied, and they all got the chance to enter the secret realm.
