"Since you haven't reached Zhizun realm pinnacle yet, you're courting death..."
Mo Yu shouted anxiously, but halfway through her words, she suddenly realized something. Her eyes narrowed, and her lips trembled, "What did you say... that he has already reached Zhizun realm?"
Four days ago, before this fellow went into seclusion, he was only at Zongshi realm pinnacle. Yet, today, he told her that he had already reached Zhizun realm pinnacle?
That was Zhizun realm! Countless people were stuck at the same level, unable to advance their cultivation for the rest of their lives. Yet, in just four days...
Did it have to be so exaggerated?
What did you eat... to be so ferocious?
Shocked, Mo Yu hurriedly turned to look at him, and indeed, she could feel the aura the other party was emanating.
Even though she had just achieved a breakthrough to Zongshi realm, standing before him, she was no different from a grasshopper before Jiang Tao.
"He's really at Zhizun realm pinnacle?"
Mo Yu was stunned.
What kind of monster was this?
A few days ago, when the other party said that he wanted to exact vengeance, she told him that he would only stand a chance if he reached Zhizun realm pinnacle.
The reason why she said those words was so that the other party would back down and not think about such unrealistic matters for the time being.
She thought that he would give up and participate in the Master Teacher Tournament, but who knew that... he would achieve a breakthrough just like that?
To reach Zhizun realm pinnacle in just a few days, it was as if the bottleneck in his cultivation didn't exist at all. Raising one's cultivation was as easy as eating and drinking... Was he still human?
Didn't you say that only Half-Transcension would be able to exact vengeance? Shouldn't you make a breakthrough as well?
She had always been an incomparably proud genius, but in front of him, she was no different from a piece of trash …
Even the unparalleled genius Mo Hongyi... couldn't compare to him at all.
It was no wonder why Zhao Ya and the others didn't think much of it when he said that Zhizun realm pinnacle was Zhizun realm pinnacle. They thought that as long as their teacher tried, he would definitely succeed. At this moment, they realized that it wasn't an exaggeration at all.
"Wait for me, I'll go over as well..."
Mo Yu's face paled, but when she raised her head to take a look, she realized that the young man had already left. She hurriedly chased after him.
"You're too weak. You should stay here with Zhao Ya and the others!"
Stopping his footsteps, Zhang Xuan waved his hands.
Even though Mo Yu had reached Zongshi realm, she was still too weak to cause a commotion at Xuanyuan Kingdom's coronation ceremony..
This time, he might not be able to avoid a storm of blood. He had no problem protecting himself, but it would be difficult to protect another.
"I am an official master teacher of the Mingshi Tang Academy, as well as the princess of Tianwu Kingdom. As long as I don't make a move and just spectate by the side, I won't be harmed!" Mo Yu hurriedly said.
As the time they spent together grew longer and longer, she felt an inexplicable reluctance to part with the young man before her. This trip would be fraught with danger, and she wanted to accompany him. If anything were to happen, she would be able to take care of him.
"Alright, when the time comes, don't get down from the back of the Steelfang Howling Firmament Beast. If you encounter any danger, leave immediately!"
Seeing the worry on the other party's face, Zhang Xuan hesitated for a moment before nodding.
As Lu Chong's teacher, it was his duty to exact vengeance for Lu Chong. This had nothing to do with her, and he couldn't allow her to be implicated in this matter.
"Alright!"
Knowing that this was the other party's bottom line, Mo Yu nodded gratefully.
Arriving at the courtyard, the Howling Firmament Beast roared and flew over.
After consuming the spirit beast blood essence and using the method that Zhang Xuan had imparted to it, it had achieved a breakthrough once more, reaching Zhizun realm intermediate stage.
This strength was on par with Crown Prince Ding Mu's Golden-scaled Beast.
The Beast Hall wasn't too far away from the capital, so it didn't take long for them to arrive at the city.
"Today is Crown Prince Ding Mu's coronation ceremony, and the entire country is celebrating. With such a talented emperor, it seems like our Xuanyuan Kingdom will be able to hold its head high once more!"
"Indeed. The crown prince is only thirty-two this year, but he's already a 3-star formation master and a Zhizun realm advanced stage expert.
His name has spread far and wide! "" A Zhizun realm expert in his thirties, there haven't been many in the history of Xuanyuan Kingdom. Given his talent, he should be able to reach Zhizun realm pinnacle in less than ten years, and there's even a chance for him to reach Half-Transcension. "
"Crown Prince Ding Mu has always been my idol, the goal that I have always strived for. I heard that the coronation ceremony will be held at the Heaven's Altar today. I must go and take a look! "
"I'll go too, wait a moment..."
Walking on the spacious streets of Xuanyuan Royal City, discussions broke out all around.
Crown Prince Ding Mu's coronation ceremony had yet to begin, but it had already caused such a huge commotion in the city.
"What a scheming move!"
Zhang Xuan's face darkened.
The reason why he hadn't appeared all this while was probably because the other party couldn't take it anymore. Thus, the other party intentionally blew this matter up to lure him out.
At this moment, the Heaven's Altar must have already been set up. If he were to make a move, the other party might really mobilize the entire army of the kingdom to kill him.
But...
So what if it was an all-encompassing trap?
Since the other party dared to kill him, they should be prepared for the most frenzied vengeance.
With a grim expression, Zhang Xuan stepped onto the back of the Howling Firmament Beast and flew toward the Heaven's Altar.
...
Xuanyuan Royal City, Green Leaf Pavilion.
This was the largest information center in the entire Xuanyuan Kingdom. Every day, there would be an endless stream of people coming here to buy and sell news. In fact, it was even more bustling than some of the larger markets.
Here, one could buy everything that one wanted, as well as sell exclusive news.
The Green Leaf Pavilion would compile these news into a book and even come up with a ranking.
"News of the Green Leaf Pavilion spread throughout the kingdom!" This wasn't a baseless rumor.
Previously, when Hall Master Feng mentioned the ranking of the favorite items of savage beasts, even though it was done privately by many beast tamers, there were traces of the Green Leaf Pavilion in it as well.
If not for this massive power in Xuanyuan Kingdom fanning the flames, it would have been impossible for the news to spread so quickly.
Not only so, there was also a ranking of the experts in the kingdom. In fact, there was even a Green Leaf Board and Green Leaf Genius Board.
The Green Leaf Board was a ranking of the strongest experts in the kingdom. Only those who stood at the very pinnacle were qualified to be listed on it.
Mingshi Tang Hall Master, the Half-Transcension Luo Qianhong, was only ranked third on the board.
As for the Genius Board, it recorded the most famous young geniuses in the kingdom.
Of which, Crown Prince Ding Mu was ranked first.
"Pavilion Master, why is the crown prince ranked first on the Genius Board? His cultivation is only at Zhizun realm advanced stage. On the other hand, Ling Luoye, who is ranked second, has already reached Zhizun realm pinnacle!"
In a room on the highest floor of the Green Leaf Pavilion, two figures sat opposite each other.
The one speaking was a gray-robed elder. Looking at the Genius Board on the table, he was perplexed.
Elder, Liao Qingxun.
Opposite him was a white-robed elder. His eyebrows were raised, and his hair and beard were pure white. His eyes were as sharp as lightning, and with a single look, one could tell that he possessed extraordinary eye of discernment and wisdom.
Pavilion Master, Dai Feng.
"The Genius Board is ranked according to one's strength. Even though Ling Luoye's cultivation is higher than the crown prince's, in a real battle, the latter would be superior!"
Pavilion Master Dai Feng chuckled.
"Oh?" Elder Liao Qingxun was doubtful.
"I'll explain it to you, and you'll understand!"
Seeing the other party's attitude, Pavilion Master Dai Feng picked up the teacup on the table and lightly scraped the tea leaves on it. "Ling Luoye is young and talented. Reaching Zhizun realm pinnacle at the age of thirty-four, his strength is extraordinary. However... if one's cultivation is too fast, there will be various problems as well. Firstly, the cultivation technique he cultivates, [Profound Ripple Art], is a water attribute cultivation technique, and its offensive prowess is lacking. Secondly, his strongest battle technique, [Frigid Water Ripple], is relatively weak, and it can only be considered average among those of the same cultivation realm.
"As for... Crown Prince Ding Mu, you'll understand in a few days!"
"Firstly, the matter of the royal family hunting down a severely injured spirit beast shouldn't be new news, right? Back then, he obtained quite a bit of spirit beast blood, and the might of the royal family's [Spirit Blood Body Nourishment Formula] has already tempered his physical body to an incomparably powerful state!
"Secondly, the cultivation technique he cultivates, [True Bear's Might], is incomparably domineering and powerful. On top of that, his [Heaven Shattering Fist], which is known for its violence, is unrivalled. Putting aside the fact that he's unrivalled among those of the same cultivation realm, even challenging those of a higher cultivation realm would be a walk in the park for him.
"Of course, the most important point is the last one. As a 3-star formation master, he has at least seven to eight 3-star formation plates on him. If he were to throw all of them out, even a Transcendent Mortal expert would find it difficult to kill him, needless to say, a Zhizun realm pinnacle cultivator!
"Thus, there's no doubt that he's worthy of being ranked first!"
After which, Pavilion Master Dai Feng turned to Elder Liao Qingxun with a smile. "Why? Do you still think that Ling Luoye can defeat him?"
"Impossible!"
Elder Liao Qingxun nodded.
With such powerful cultivation technique, talent, and means, even though this Crown Prince Ding Mu was only at Zhizun realm advanced stage, his true fighting prowess was something that even Zhizun realm pinnacle cultivators wouldn't dare to offend.
"That's right. It's understandable for him to be ranked first on the Genius Board because of this. Not to mention Ling Luoye, in the past five hundred years of Xuanyuan Kingdom, there's probably no one who could surpass him at such a young age in the future!"
Pavilion Master Dai Feng chuckled.
"Indeed. Crown Prince Ding Mu is truly an astounding talent..."
Elder Liao Qingxun remarked in awe.
"You should be addressing him as Emperor Ding Mu now. Crown Prince is already a thing of the past!" Pavilion Master Dai Feng advised.
"Un, it's Emperor Ding Mu! It's no wonder there are rumors that with such a genius leading our Xuanyuan Kingdom, no one would dare to humiliate us anymore! From the looks of it, that's indeed the case. "
Recalling the rumors, Pavilion Master Liao Qingxun said.
The overall strength of an empire was just one aspect. What was more important was the disposition and attitude of the leader.
If the leader was talented and powerful, the strength of the empire was bound to be formidable as well.
"Indeed. With his ascension to the throne, he will be much stronger than the old Emperor Ding Chong. At the very least, he will be able to intimidate the neighboring kingdoms. Countless small fries will be scared into silence. If I'm not mistaken, Xuanyuan Kingdom will welcome a period of rapid development, and no one will be able to stop it anymore! "
Pavilion Master Dai Feng said with a smile.
Liao Qingxun nodded. Just as he was about to comment on the matter, the ground suddenly trembled. Following which, a deafening explosion echoed throughout the entire capital.
"Ding Mu, I, Zhang Xuan, am here. Hurry up and come out to receive your death!"
"Receive your death?"
"Someone has barged into the Heaven's Altar during the inauguration ceremony... and is intending to kill Emperor Ding Mu?"
Pavilion Master Dai Feng and Elder Liao Qingxun were dumbfounded.
(I don't know what kind of activity there is in the client, but the author's ranking has dropped so much that there's no sign of Old Ya. Forget it, how can our Ya Jun be ranked in the top 20 and not move up? If you have a treasure orb, can you help Laoya get up there? Let our [Ya Jun] shine before all of our fans! Wahaha! Of course, don't forget to vote for him...)
