When the Dao Platform activated, the figures of Xiao Chen, Yun Fei, and Nangong Feng turned hazy. As space changed, all they could see was a blurry seven-colored energy flow.
That was space-time turbulence, and one couldn't touch or touch it carelessly. Otherwise, one would get lost within.
When his vision returned to normal, Xiao Chen found himself on an even larger platform.
There were many other Sovereign Personages like Xiao Chen on the Dao Platform. All of them had deep cultivations and a strong aura.
A fearsome sharpness hid on their faces. All of them were peak Sovereign Personages.
Some of them had cold expressions, while others had arrogant expressions. Most of them were like Xiao Chen, sizing up the other kings.
Thinking about it, these people should be the 110 people who would be joining the Heaven Alliance this time.
Who were the four heaven-defying Human Kings?
Saber Demon Wu Meng, Grim Reaper Lin Feng, Sword Venerable Gongzi Lan, and Spear King Mo Yu.
Xiao Chen thought curiously in his heart. His gaze fell on a burly man with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a face full of stubble.
The bearded man carried an ancient Dragon Tooth Saber on his back. The saber's body was intertwined with canine teeth, and its shape was odd. It looked quite ferocious. It was as if he could turn into a ferocious beast at any time and wreak havoc everywhere.
Saber Demon Wu Meng recalled the appearance that Lei Hao described to him. It seemed to be him.
Saber Demon Wu Meng sensed Xiao Chen's gaze and grinned. However, when this face smiled, it really didn't look good. It looked even more frightening.
Xiao Chen nodded slightly in response to her smile.
So cold!
All of a sudden, a shiver ran down his spine as a terrifying chill swept out in all directions.
A cold-looking young man with a spear on his back appeared on the platform and scanned the platform.
The coldness came from his gaze.
It was the Spear Sovereign Mo Yu. This person should have cultivated his Ice Dao Domain to a certain level.
Xiao Chen thought to himself, My Thunder Dao Domain should not be able to defeat the other party.
Hua!
Before the shock from the Spear Sovereign Mo Yu faded, a deathly intent spread across the platform. It caused one's entire body to feel uncomfortable and their hair to stand on end. They had no choice but to circulate their Quintessence to disperse this deathly aura.
"Grim Reaper Lin Feng!"
Nangong Feng said in a deep voice. He frowned as he looked at the black-clothed youth on the Dao Platform.
"You know him?" Yunfei asked in surprise.
Nangong Feng nodded. "In the first stage, I was placed in the same mystic realm as him. I was nearly eliminated by him. He is an invincible existence. To the people of our mystic realm, it's a nightmare. No one is willing to run into him. His Death Dao Domain is too despairing. "
Death Dao Domain!
Derived from the Dao of Death, it was hundreds or even thousands of times more difficult to cultivate than the Great Daos of Wind, Fire, Thunder, and Lightning.
To be able to comprehend the Death Great Dao into a Dao Domain, this person must have paid an extremely terrifying price. Cultivating this kind of dark martial arts could cause one to go berserk if they were not careful. It was best not to provoke this person.
It could be seen that the examinees who came with Lin Feng all kept a distance from him, not daring to get close.
When all the candidates had arrived, a huge silver warship appeared on the platform, its entire body shining with a cold luster. With a single glance, one could tell that it was a divine material. It was a special metal that had been forged through tens of thousands of processes.
"Everyone is here?"
The cabin door opened, and a middle-aged man dressed in green walked out. He was as handsome as a man from a painting. He glanced at the crowd and said softly.
The azure-clad man had the same plum blossom symbol as Lord Shangguan embroidered on his chest, with six petals. The center of the flower looked like snow, and the petals were inlaid with golden threads. This exuded nobility and pride, looking extraordinary.
"Lord Mu, all the new members of the Heavenly Alliance are here," an old man responsible for welcoming the newcomers said respectfully after stepping forward.
The azure-clad man nodded slightly and praised, "Not bad. The potential and strength of this batch of members far surpass that of the previous batches. I'm afraid that there will not be so many peak Sovereign Personages joining the Heavenly Alliance for many years to come. "
In the entire Martial Epoch, there were more than one million Sovereign Personages in the Great Thousand Realms.
Only one hundred and ten people were allowed to enter the Heavenly Alliance. With such strict standards, it would be strange if the remaining people were not strong.
"Good. Before you go to the Heavenly Alliance's headquarters, you will have to undergo a final test here to determine your ranking. Actually, this ranking is not very useful. It is only related to some rewards. Hence, I hope that you will not treat this as a fight to the death. Just stop when you are exchanging pointers. Otherwise, it will be my Heavenly Alliance's loss if you suffer any internal injuries or hidden injuries. "
Lord Mu looked at Xiao Chen and the other participants. After a pause, he continued, "So, end this quickly and stop when you are done. There is no need to worry. I cannot make out your strength. Even if a victor is not decided, I will know who is stronger. "
When Xiao Chen and the others heard that, they felt stunned. Unexpectedly, the third stage would be so casual.
However, when they thought about it, this made sense. The first and second stages were very cruel. Everyone felt very tense. If they were not careful, someone might really die. At that time, it would be the Heavenly Alliance's loss.
"Now, we will start fighting in pairs to determine the top fifty. The top ten with the total points of the first stage will advance to the final stage."
This was a special treatment for the seeded participants. The remaining one hundred people would fight in pairs.
As this was just exchanging pointers, everyone held back. The battles progressed very quickly. When one felt that they could not defeat their opponent, they decisively admitted defeat.
There were cultivators who clearly could not defeat their opponents but wanted to drag things out. Lord Mu reprimanded them and declared them to be losers.
Xiao Chen was pretty lucky. He won two rounds in a row and entered the top twenty.
This attracted many people's attention. Clearly, many people had heard that he was the youngest member in the history of the Heavenly Alliance.
The four heaven-defying Sovereign Personages were Saber Demon Wu Meng, Grim Reaper Lin Feng, Sword Venerate Gongzi Lan, and Spear Sovereign Mo Yu. Aside from them, the most well-known was the White Robed Bladesman Xiao Chen.
"I really couldn't tell that he could make it into the top twenty at such a young age!"
"He is rather capable. Incredible!"
"However, this is not a true fight, after all. We cannot take it too seriously."
As the discussions continued, the final round was about to begin. Xiao Chen and the other nine participants would face the top ten experts who advanced to the final round.
"The final round begins. Your final privilege is to choose your opponent. Whoever wins will enter the top ten and proceed to the final competition! "
Lord Mu said softly as he looked at the top ten participants of the first stage.
Immediately, Xiao Chen and the other nine felt somewhat nervous. They all hoped that the four heaven-defying Sovereign Personages would not choose them.
The four heaven-defying Sovereign Personages were already publicly acknowledged as unrivaled among Sovereign Personages. The others could not be a match for them.
Whoever was chosen by the four heaven-defying Sovereign Personages would lose for sure. They would not have any chance of entering the top ten.
"My opponent is him!"
Xiao Chen looked around. Unfortunately, the one who chose him was Sword Venerate Gongzi Lan, one of the four heaven-defying experts.
While Xiao Chen felt somewhat disappointed, he quickly adjusted his state of mind.
Xiao Chen showed a calm expression as he stepped forward and performed a cupped-fist salute. "Peach Blossom City's Xiao Chen, please give me some pointers."
"You can still remain so calm when facing me. This is truly shocking."
Sword Venerate Gongzi Lan's handsome face exuded a righteous aura, giving off a feeling of righteousness and untainted by evil.
Xiao Chen smiled faintly and did not deny it. He gestured with his hand and said, "Make your move, then."
"As you wish."
"Clang!"
Gongzi Lan frowned slightly. Immediately, a sharp light appeared on his face. Like a treasure sword being unsheathed, it turned into a sharp sword move and launched itself at Xiao Chen.
Ferocious, sharp, upright, and upright. This was a terrifying arrow that seemed to crush everything. This was Gongzi Lan's Sword Dao, the King's Sword Dao. "Ding! Ding!
Dang! Dang! "
In that instant, Xiao Chen moved as well. However, he did not move his feet. What moved was the saber intent in his heart and the saber moves in his entire body. The Flawless saber Dao used the body as a saber, his hair as a saber, and his clothes as a saber.
Xiao Chen's fine black hair and clothes fluttered. He clearly did not move, but his clothes fluttered along with his fluttering hair and fluttering clothes.
His saber moves were like a vast army surging. When Gongzi Lan charged over, Xiao Chen drew his Tyrant Saber and clashed with the other party's upright and upright sword move that contained the King's Sword Dao. "Dang! Dang!
Dang! "
The weapons clashed. In the blink of an eye, the two exchanged more than a hundred moves. Their figures crisscrossed, and afterimages filled the air. The saber and sword danced chaotically, creating a magnificent and chaotic mysterious phenomenon.
Clearly, many people had not expected such a scene. To think that Xiao Chen could last so long against Gongzi Lan.
"Whoosh!"
After exchanging another hundred moves, the two of them separated from the mysterious phenomenon.
There were already some sword wounds on Xiao Chen's body. However, there was a faint saber wound on Gongzi Lan's face.
The two were evenly matched. Unexpectedly, there was no clear victor in this exchange.
"Lord Mu did not call for me to stop. It looks like he thinks that my Sword Dao will have some difficulty defeating you. However, I have a method that can make you admit defeat now."
Gongzi Lan sheathed his sword, and his lips curled up in a confident smile.
Xiao Chen said calmly, "In that case, bring it out and let me see!"
Gongzi Lan smiled faintly and held two fingers together. Suddenly, a strand of sword light condensed at his fingertips.
"Whoosh!"
The instant the sword light appeared, Xiao Chen felt a piercing pain in his eyes. He felt some fear in his heart, so he quickly took a few steps back.
Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes and looked carefully. He saw a leaping golden line in that sword light.
Divine Energy!
This Gongzi Lan actually managed to cultivate a strand of Divine Energy as a Sovereign Personage, a Divine Energy that only Divine Vein Realm Sovereign Emperors could grasp.
Xiao Chen smiled bitterly. There was indeed no need to continue fighting. Clearly, Gongzi Lan had already cultivated this strand of Divine Energy to perfection.
Combined with Gongzi Lan's Sword Dao, even if Xiao Chen took out the Taiji Yinyang Flame Diagram, he was not confident of blocking it.
Whether Xiao Chen dared to block it or not was another question. Once he failed to block it, this sword light containing Divine Energy could instantly severely injure him.
If it were a true fight, the best choice would be to leave quickly when the other party used Divine Energy.
There was no need to gamble on the unknown.
Gongzi Lan was indeed one of the four heaven-defying Sovereign Personages. To think that he managed to cultivate a strand of Divine Energy. This made Xiao Chen feel helpless. There was no need to continue.
Xiao Chen smiled bitterly and shook his head. Then, he sheathed his saber and performed a cupped-fist salute. "I lost."
"Thank you for letting me win."
Gongzi Lan smiled faintly and scattered the sword light. Then, he held up his sword and moved back.
In the final ranking matches, Xiao Chen could only reach the top twenty. His exact rank would depend on Lord Mu.
