"The Demon Emperor has broken through so many realms in just half a month."
Chu Fengmian was a little surprised when he saw the Demon Emperor's realm.
Compared to others, Chu Fengmian still had some understanding of the Devil Emperor. After all, Chu Fengmian had already fought with the Devil Emperor in the Returning Ruins Heaven.
At that time, the Demon Emperor was only at the second step of the Life and Death Steps, the Immortal Realm.
In just half a month, the Demon Emperor had already reached the sixth step of the Life and Death Steps, the Refining Heart Realm.
In half a month, he had broken through four realms.
"The Demon Emperor is indeed not simple."
Chu Fengmian sneered.
One of his goals in participating in the Nine Regions Genius Tournament was to spar with experts, especially the Demon Emperor.
In the Returning Ruins Sky, Chu Fengmian and the Demon Emperor had yet to decide a winner.
Since that was the case, he would decide the winner in the Nine Regions Genius Tournament's arena.
Time passed by slowly.
After the Demon Emperor, no other martialists were as amazing as the Nine Regions Genius Tournament.
In this year's Nine Regions Genius Tournament, there were still some powerhouses that had suddenly appeared. Some of them were members of hidden families, while others were cultivators who had obtained great opportunities.
Every time the Nine Regions Genius Battle was held, there would always be some unfamiliar faces appearing.
For most of the martialists present, this was no longer a surprise.
Most of the martialists who came to watch the Nine Regions Genius Tournament wanted to see what kind of unfamiliar faces would appear in this year's Nine Regions Genius Tournament.
Another six hours passed.
The gate of the Ancient Gladiator Arena suddenly closed, not allowing any martialists to enter.
This meant that the Nine Regions Genius Tournament had officially begun.
"Boom!"
From the center of the Ancient Gladiator Arena, a series of roars suddenly resounded.
The entire arena underwent an earth-shattering change. A gigantic boulder emerged from the center of the arena.
This rock was twelve meters tall, and there were partitions between every meter.
"The Heaven's Chosen Stone!"
Chu Fengmian was familiar with this rock. It was called the Heaven's Chosen Stone.
This Heaven's Chosen Stone was enough to test a martial artist's aptitude.
Just like in ancient times, when the major sects recruited disciples, they had to pass through the Heaven's Chosen Stone.
Every Heaven's Chosen Stone was divided into 12 layers. Every additional layer lit up represented a higher qualification of the warrior.
One is the lowest and twelve is the highest.
In his previous life, Chu Fengmian had also tried the Heaven's Chosen Stone, but at that time, Chu Fengmian was simply a waste without any spirit energy.
He didn't even have the qualifications to light up a single piece of it.
This time, Chu Fengmian was looking forward to it. He wanted to see how many pieces he could light up this time.
"All martial artists, those who have been chosen, light up the Heaven's Chosen Stone in order!"
Daoist Jian Que flew onto the stage and injected his spiritual energy into the largest Heaven's Choice Stone.
Suddenly, all the Heaven's Chosen Stones emitted a dazzling light.
Every seat in the Ancient Battle Arena was by itself. Once a seat lit up, the cultivators sitting in front of it would enter the arena one by one.
He walked in front of a Heaven's Chosen Stone and lit it up.
If he didn't go, it meant that he didn't want to participate in the Nine Regions Genius Tournament.
Every year, millions of martial artists participated in the Nine Regions Genius Tournament. The Heaven's Chosen Stone was only the first test.
If one couldn't pass the Heaven's Chosen Stone, they wouldn't even have the qualifications to participate in the Nine Regions Genius Tournament.
"Daoist Jian Que, how many Heaven's Chosen Stones do we have to light up before we can participate in the Nine Regions Genius Tournament?"
A martial artist suddenly asked loudly.
"Four!"
Jian Que's elder slowly opened his mouth and said.
"Those who can light up four Heaven's Chosen Stones can officially participate in the Nine Regions Genius Tournament."
"Four?"
"What? You can participate if you light up four?"
Some of the martial artists who hadn't participated in the tournament disagreed when they heard Elder Jian Que's words.
There were a total of twelve Heaven's Chosen Stones. Lighting up four was only one-third of the way.
However, some of the martial artists who had participated in the Nine Regions Genius Tournament for the first time stiffened when they heard the number. They didn't have much confidence in themselves.
"Is four very difficult?"
Chu Fengmian suddenly asked Gu Jin beside him.
After all, this was his first time participating in the Nine Regions Genius Tournament. Although he had heard some rumors, he wasn't clear about some of the details.
"It's very difficult."
Gu Jin nodded and said.
"In the previous Nine Regions Genius Tournament, as long as a martial artist could light up three Heaven's Chosen Stones, they would be qualified to participate. This time, there's an extra Heaven's Chosen Stone."
"A cultivator who can light up four Heaven's Chosen Stones is enough to be considered a somewhat famous genius and qualified to join the seven major sects. It seems that the number of cultivators who can truly participate this time is less than one percent."
"One percent is really cruel. Without strength, you won't even be qualified to participate in the Nine Regions Genius Tournament."
Chu Fengmian looked at the martial artists present and couldn't help but sigh. Among these millions of young martial artists, only one percent was qualified to participate in the Nine Regions Genius Tournament.
As for the rest of the people, they could only sit below and watch quietly.
However, the Nine Regions Genius Tournament was indeed a place where the strong preyed on the weak. Without strength, even if one forcefully participated in the Nine Regions Genius Tournament, they would still die.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
While Chu Fengmian and Gu Jin were conversing, some martial artists had already been called over and flew directly to the arena.
They each chose a Heaven's Chosen Stone and poured their spiritual energy into it.
Bang! Bang!
Two stones, two stones, three stones, two stones.
Of the dozens of people who went, not a single one lit up four Heaven's Chosen Stones.
"How is this possible? My aptitude is in the top five in the sect. How can I only light up three Heaven's Chosen Stones? "
A young martial artist looked at the Heaven's Chosen Stone in front of him and said in disbelief.
He came from a small sect and had been nurtured as a genius since he was young.
Now that he was participating in the Nine Regions Genius Tournament, he didn't even qualify to participate. How could he accept this?
The spectators were much calmer when it came to this matter.
Every year, there would be some martial artists who came to participate in the Nine Regions Genius Tournament, but their morale would drop greatly and they would never recover.
The Nine Regions Genius Tournament was so big that no one knew how many geniuses there were.
Of course, there would also be some martial artists who came to the Nine Regions Genius Tournament and experienced the vastness of the Nine Regions Genius Tournament.
