The battles in the three palaces in the formation world had already reached their climax.
The battles in each of the palaces were especially intense, so much so that they could even be described as tragic.
The exit was right in front of them. Either they would rank in the top three or last.
The two results were simply too different.
No one was willing to be last. This was especially so for the famous outer palace outstanding talents. They would not give up until the very last moment.
Who would be the first to walk out of the bronze doors?
After so much time had passed, not only were the Palace Masters on the light steps in the air waiting anxiously, but the heaven-class core disciples on the ground waiting as well.
After all, this concerned the slots for the outer palaces to enter the second stage.
This concerned honor and benefits.
Everyone hoped that their strongest disciple could stand out and become the first.
"Why are there no results yet? This is really making me anxious!"
"Why is Senior Brother Qin Mu not appearing yet?!"
"There's no rush. Senior Brother Qin Mu is publicly recognized as the strongest of the outer palaces. There should not be any surprises with him obtaining the first rank of the first stage."
"It would be good if he can enter the top three. With that, most of the people in our Silver Dragon Palace will be qualified to enter the second stage."
"Given Senior Brother Yuan Xi's strength, while he might not be the first rank, he is definitely in the top three."
The various outer palace disciples started discussing in low voices in groups of twos and threes.
The many Heavenly Dragon Palace disciples did not dare to say anything before this group of Divine Dragon bloodline cultivators. If they said anything, they would attract gazes of criticism.
The many Divine Dragon disciples who looked down on mixed-blood dragons mocked them in their hearts. The one at the bottom would definitely be Xiao Chen.
When Li Luo and the others heard this, they felt angry in their hearts. However, they did not dare to show it on their faces.
They could not help it.
Aside from them, the others were all Divine Dragon bloodline disciples. If they started arguing, they would not be able to escape any benefits.
"This first stage is very considerate of the Heaven Dragon Palace. Aside from the top three, everyone else is at the bottom. This is really unfair."
"Indeed. Why? Why can't there be four, five, six, and seven? Just thinking about it pisses me off. Ancestor Dragon City is clearly biased toward these mixed-blood dragons. "
"Speak softer. Don't let others hear."
"So what if they heard it? What's there to be afraid of? I'm just speaking the truth … If Senior Brother doesn't make it to the top three, our slots will be the same as those mixed dragons. That's unfair!"
Although the ear-piercing criticism was suppressed, no one present could hear it.
Bai Yunfeng and the others held their breaths, their expressions somewhat unsightly.
Not far away, the Silver Dragon Palace's Yuan Tai saw this scene. He smiled faintly and said, "Brother Yunfeng, don't be angry. The Heaven Dragon Palace has been at the bottom for so many years. No matter what, we have to take care of them, right? These people are not giving face. Just ignore them. I support Ancestor Dragon City's decision. "
The Silver Dragon Palace disciples were extremely confident of their senior brother, Yuan Xi, entering the top three.
On the other hand, Yuan Tai had nothing better to do, so he teased Zhang Xuan. On the surface, he seemed to be supporting Zhang Xuan, but he was secretly mocking him.
"Right, right, right. Our Silver Dragon Palace supports Ancestor Dragon City's decision!"
"This group of people is truly shameless. They are so harsh to their fellow sect members. Brothers of the Heaven Dragon Palace, don't be sad. Our Silver Dragon Palace disciples are absolutely not that harsh. Hahaha! "
Under Yuan Tai's lead, the group of bored Silver Dragon Palace heaven-class core disciples all started laughing loudly.
In any case, as long as nothing unexpected happened, Yuan Xi would definitely enter the top three. There was no need to worry too much.
Bai Yunfeng trembled in anger, wanting to flare up on the spot. However, Li Luo, who was at the side, held him back, telling him not to act rashly.
"Creak!"
Just at this moment, a strange sound came from the formation plate. It was not loud, but everyone heard it.
It was the sound of a door being pushed open. Someone was pushing the ancient bronze doors.
In the blink of an eye, the chatter came to an abrupt stop. Everyone's gaze was directed toward the three ancient bronze doors on the giant formation plate in front of them.
Everyone turned anxious, including the Silver Dragon Palace's group. The smiles on their faces vanished, and they watched nervously.
He watched nervously. After all, no one could predict the outcome of an accident.
It's the door in the middle!
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, every detail of the three ancient bronze doors was captured by the crowd.
It could be clearly seen that the door in the middle was being pushed little by little, emitting a creaking sound.
The person pushing the door seemed to have exhausted a lot of Veritable Essence Energy and stamina. It appeared somewhat strenuous, unable to push the door open in one go.
Who is it?
Right now, everyone was trying to guess who was pushing this door open.
Without a doubt, the person who pushed this door open would be the first.
"Qin Mu! Qin Mu! It must be Qin Mu!"
On the light steps, the Golden Dragon Palace's Third Palace Master already had a somewhat crazed look in his eyes. He nearly could not help muttering to himself.
He could not help it. His earlier words were too firm.
He had ruthlessly trampled on the Heaven Dragon Palace. If Qin Mu did not rank first, it would be somewhat embarrassing.
Although the Palace Masters of the other outer palaces knew that it was very likely Qin Mu pushing the door open, they still held some hope.
However, he still had some expectations. He hoped that his disciple would be the one who was pushing the door open!
The many Golden Dragon Palace heaven-class core disciples already held their breaths in extreme anxiety, waiting for the answer.
Compared to these Divine Dragon Palace disciples, the Heaven Dragon Palace disciples showed somewhat desolate expressions.
They did not seek to rank first. They only hoped that their Senior Brother Xiao Chen could help them rank in the top three.
As long as they could rank in the top three, they would be able to hold their heads high and release all the pent-up frustration in their hearts.
As long as they could rank in the top three, all the grievances they had suffered over the years would be worth it.
However, the rumors they heard earlier discouraged them. They had already heard about the Snake-Tailed Tiger.
They had already heard about a mixed-blood dragon bloodline cultivator facing a Snake-Tailed Tiger with a Hou bloodline.
The result was simply unimaginable.
Although the ancient bronze door in the middle pushed somewhat slowly, it eventually opened a crack. Then, the crack slowly widened.
When the crack expanded to three inches, a side profile and a set of blood-stained golden armor appeared clearly in front of everyone under the sunlight.
It was Qin Mu!
Qin Mu's handsome face appeared somewhat fatigued. However, the sharpness hidden in his eyes, the noble air of a Golden Dragon, and the blood-stained golden armor all showed it.
This person was Qin Mu, one of the Qin Clan's twin stars, the strongest person in the outer palace.
"Hahaha! This old man already said that the first rank would definitely be my Golden Dragon Palace's Qin Mu. Earlier, I called him a mixed-blood dragon, and you want me to apologize? Damn it! To think that the strongest Golden Dragon in the outer palace wants to apologize to a mixed-blood dragon! "
The Golden Dragon Palace's Third Palace Master could not help laughing maniacally on the light steps.
Clearly, the Third Palace Master was also frustrated. Although his earlier apology to the First Palace Master was not sincere, it still upset him, a Golden Dragon.
After suppressing it for a long time, it finally erupted.
Although the Third Palace Master's words were arrogant, when he saw Qin Mu, who was the first to push open the ancient bronze door, the other outer palace Palace Masters did not say anything.
The Third Palace Master had no choice. At this moment, he indeed had the capital to be arrogant.
Even if the First Palace Master felt dissatisfied, he could not say anything, nor could he say anything.
The results were there for all to see. This was a world where the strong reigned. Lord Feng would not care about it.
"It's Senior Brother! It really is Senior Brother Qin!"
"The pride of the Golden Dragon bloodline, the dignity of the royal clan, Senior Brother did it!"
"The strongest of the outer palaces will definitely be the noble Golden Dragon bloodline. No one can shake him!"
The Golden Dragon Palace's heaven-class core disciples felt incredibly excited. Some even had tears in their eyes as they cheered in unison.
The other outer palace disciples all showed somewhat desolate expressions. However, they did not show much change in their expressions.
The strongest of the outer palaces was truly the strongest of the outer palaces. He lived up to his reputation.
Qin Mu, who was pushing open the door, felt extremely fatigued. When he saw this scene, he squeezed out a smile on his pale face.
It was worth it. It was worth fighting that madman from the Red Dragon Palace to the brink of death.
Fortunately, he did not fail in his mission. It was all worth it!
"Boom!"
Suddenly, without any warning, an explosion came from the formation plate. Before everyone's incredulous gazes, the ancient bronze door to Qin Mu's left exploded.
Then, a piercing electric light burst out from it. The electric light was as piercing as the blazing sun.
A figure shot out from within the ten thousand zhang of lightning.
That person wore white robes, looking spotless. He had a handsome face and delicate facial features. His expression was calm as he held up the Tyrant Saber and landed firmly in the air.
Who else could it be but Xiao Chen?!
"This …"
Everyone was stunned by this scene.
Qin Mu had only pushed the door halfway. He hadn't even had the time to take a step out. The smile on his face had yet to fade when it froze.
The cheering Golden Dragon Palace disciples were utterly stupefied.
After the white-bearded old man on the light steps recovered from his shock, he said calmly, "Congratulations to the Heaven Dragon Palace's disciple, Xiao Chen, for being the first to leave and obtaining the first rank."
The Golden Dragon Palace's Third Palace Master, who had cursed excitedly earlier, was instantly stunned. He felt a burning pain on his face.
The First Palace Master felt a lump in his throat, but he maintained a relatively calm expression. Without even looking at the Golden Dragon Palace's Third Palace Master, he said softly, "Tian Yun, let's go and receive Xiao Chen."
However, Elder Tian Yun could not help turning around to look at the Golden Dragon Palace's Third Palace Master. "Our Heaven Dragon Palace really does not care for your Golden Dragon Palace's apology. You keep calling us mixed-blood dragons. You are not even comparable to a mixed-blood dragon. What noble Golden Divine Dragon? Noble my ass! "
After cursing, Elder Tian Yun turned and left.
This angered the Golden Dragon Palace's Third Palace Master into trembling. He pointed at the other party but could not say anything for a long time.
After being criticized by a Heaven Dragon Palace Elder in public, the Golden Dragon Palace's Third Palace Master felt so frustrated that he wanted to die. However, he could not do anything.
