"It seems like you have a high opinion of him."
Sima Taxing knew his precious daughter very well. It was not easy for her to have a high opinion of someone.
"I'm too lazy to comment on him. That guy is not only shameless and cruel, but also extremely despicable."
Thinking of everything about that guy, Sima Muhan could only use these few words to describe him.
"Haha …"
Hearing this, Sima Taxing laughed and said to his beloved daughter, "That guy is extremely cunning, but he's not just smart. Perhaps he can achieve great things in the future. If there's someone in your batch who can achieve great things in the future, I'm afraid it's most likely him."
"Father, you have a high opinion of that guy too?"
Sima Muhan looked at her father curiously. It was rare for her to see her father praise someone, especially so deeply.
"He's just a young guy, but he's neither servile nor overbearing in front of me and so many elders. He can even talk eloquently. In the Giant Rock Space, he was able to drag you down with him. The newly established World Society has nine 'talents' joining it. These things seem ordinary, but they're actually not."
Sima Taxing's deep eyes flashed like glass. He said, "This guy is definitely not simple. As for how much he's hiding, we'll know tomorrow."
Seeing her father praising that guy, Sima Muhan couldn't help but pout. She said, "Hmph, I'd like to see how capable that cruel and shameless guy is."
"Pfff …"
In the misty space, Du Shaofu suddenly sneezed twice. He rubbed his nose and muttered, "Who's scolding me?"
"How's your comprehension?"
Zhen Qingchun's illusory body floated in front of Du Shaofu and asked.
"Not bad, but there's not enough time. I'll have to go into seclusion some other day."
Du Shaofu clenched his fists, feeling the progress he had made, and a smile appeared on his face.
This time, Du Shaofu spent about two months in the Ancient Desolate Space. In addition to the mysterious move, the methods in the Ancient Desolate Space, and some of the methods of the Golden-winged Great Rocs, Du Shaofu had also spent some time comprehending the Pulse Spirit. He had made significant progress.
"You have already reached the peak of the Martial Lord Realm. You should spend more time comprehending the Pulse Spirit. Otherwise, breaking through to the Martial King Realm will be extremely difficult. The degree of comprehension of the Pulse Spirit is directly related to your breakthrough to the Martial King Realm." Zhen Qingchun said to Du Shaofu.
Du Shaofu nodded. After packing up, he left the Ancient Desolate Space.
After leaving the Desolate Ancient Space, Du Shaofu went to see his third senior apprentice brother, Yu Wanli. He told him that his master, Gu Qingyang, had told him to prepare well for the competition tomorrow.
"Junior apprentice brother, you must win. No matter what, even if you can't get first place, you must at least get second place." Before Yu Wanli left, he reminded Du Shaofu.
Du Shaofu was naturally looking forward to tomorrow's competition. Not to mention that the Sect Leader had already said that if he didn't get first place, he would be in trouble.
Night shrouded the mountains.
In the quiet courtyard, a blue-clothed youth stood there. His long and narrow eyes flickered with a cold light as he said, "Humph! Do you really think that you can take the lead tomorrow? Tomorrow, everyone will know that I, Xu Chuyun, am the true Sovereign Personage. Tomorrow is when the true victor will be decided. Du Shaofu, you won't be complacent for long."
The next morning, in the Ancient Heaven Sect, the morning clouds rose, and thousands of mountains woke up.
The Tianwu Square was already crowded early in the morning.
Outer sect disciples could also participate in today's competition. This was a grand occasion for the Ancient Heaven Sect, so naturally, all of the hundreds of thousands of outer sect disciples would participate. No one wanted to miss out on such an exciting competition.
Therefore, when the sun rose, the vast Tianwu Square was already crowded with people. All of them were extraordinary young men and women.
"I wonder who will get first place this time."
"It should be one of the four Human Kings, Young Miss Sima Muhan, and Du Shaofu."
"In the end, the top sixteen winners will get a chance to enter the Ancient Heaven Sect's secret area to forge. The champion will even get a high-grade Dao Tool. But this time, there's an outstanding genius, four Human Kings, and Young Miss Sima Muhan and Du Shaofu. That's a total of seventeen people. Looks like even the outstanding Human Kings will have to stop outside."
"It's said that Du Shaofu was able to resist Yin Mochen for two hours in the Giant Rock Space. There's a great chance for him to get first place this time."
"I heard that Du Shaofu was able to resist Senior Brother Yin Mochen for two hours by using a symbol array. As for Young Miss Sima Muhan, she relied on her own strength to resist Senior Brother Sima Muhan for two hours. In my opinion, perhaps Young Miss Sima Muhan is better."
"Look, there are quite a few disciples from the previous competition."
"Not only that. Don't you see the people on the mountain peak in front? Those are experts on the Silver Ranking. They just don't want to stand with us. They're all here to watch the show."
The surrounding crowd discussed animatedly. It was extremely lively.
The crowd was also divided into many areas. Within the Ancient Heaven Sect, there were many large and small forces. Naturally, they all stood together.
"Look, the elders are here."
"There are also those one hundred and twenty-eight fellows. I wonder who will be able to enter the top sixteen."
Suddenly, there was a commotion in the crowd. In the distant sky, a large number of figures flew over. Many extremely powerful demonic beast mounts flew across the sky, carrying extraordinary elders to a corner of the square. At this moment, there was a high platform that had already been prepared.
The few elders at the front were Gu Qingyang, Kong Zhonglei, Hao Zongwei, Hu Sankun, Yan Mingze and the others.
Whoosh whoosh …
Following behind the elders were one hundred and twenty-eight outstanding figures. They all slowly landed in the center of the Sky Martial Square. Du Shaofu was among them. Standing beside him were Qiao Yingmeng, Judge Hao, Benniu and the others.
One hundred and twenty-eight people landed in the square. They slightly raised their heads and looked at the surrounding crowd. Their fighting spirit quietly rose in their hearts.
Everyone knew that the competition was about to begin. If they wanted to stand out, they would have to give it their all.
"Greetings, elders and protectors."
Around the Sky Martial Square, a dozen outer and inner sect disciples respectfully bowed.
"Dispense with the formalities."
Elder Gu Qingyang waved his long sleeves and sat on a large chair.
One by one, the elders took their seats and looked around. For some reason, these elders felt a little uneasy in their hearts today.
Especially Yan Mingze, Hao Zongwei, Kong Zhonglei and the other elders. Their faces were always a little uneasy.
It was as if everyone was worried about something at this moment.
Du Shaofu also stood among the one hundred and twenty-eight people. He looked around and saw Xu Chuyun and the others. He felt a little strange in his heart. Xu Chuyun and the others had a total of nine energy copper talismans on them.
Logically speaking, it wouldn't be easy to rank in the end. Everyone had nine energy copper talismans. Not to mention that this time, at least three hundred people had a lot of energy copper talismans on them. Even if Xu Chuyun and the others kept their energy copper talismans, they wouldn't be able to rank in the top one hundred and twenty-eight.
Du Shaofu whispered his doubts to Judge Hao, who was beside him, and asked, "Fatty, can their energy copper talismans be auctioned in the top one hundred and twenty-eight?"
"In the past, the new inner sect disciples were also able to rob the new inner sect disciples in the Giant Rock Space. However, under normal circumstances, they would only take action in the last two hours of the Giant Rock Space. I reckon that they had already sensed the danger and had already taken action against the other disciples in the Giant Rock Space." Judge Hao glanced at Xu Chuyun and the others and said to Du Shaofu in a serious tone.
"I see."
Du Shaofu nodded his head slightly. Just as he finished speaking, he heard an elder's voice from a corner of the high platform, accompanied by profound energy, "Alright, it's about time now. You should all know the rules. The one hundred and twenty-eight people will fight among themselves first. In the end, sixteen people will win. After that, the sixteen of you will fight for first place. If you have any questions, you can raise them now."
Elder Qiang Mingze said in a loud voice from the high platform. His voice was so loud that it could be clearly heard by the entire Tianwu Plaza.
No one had any questions. Even Du Shaofu had just followed his master, Gu Qingyang, and third senior brother to the Tianwu Plaza and learned the rules of the competition.
The rules of the competition were very simple. It was fine as long as one did not intentionally harm the lives of others. However, if someone was not tactful and insisted on persistently pestering others, they could only bear the consequences themselves.
Therefore, in this kind of situation, once someone felt that they were in trouble, no one would dare to forcefully resist.
Otherwise, if something happened in the end, they could only blame themselves for asking for it.
"Since no one has any questions, I will now announce that the competition will begin. The sixteen people who are still standing in the end will win." Elder Qiang Mingze's voice spread out and resounded in the large plaza.
"Boom …"
As Elder Qiang Mingze's voice rang out, the surrounding plaza immediately erupted in cheers. The sound waves shook the heavens and the scene was extremely hot-blooded.
In the center of the plaza, the one hundred and twenty-eight people immediately focused their attention and their expressions froze. Profound energy had already begun to spread out from some of their bodies as they summoned their weapons. Their gazes were vigilant and sharp as they looked at the people around them.
The surrounding crowd of spectators was extremely surging for the one hundred and twenty-eight people.
They were all from the younger generation. It was impossible for anyone to be completely calm in such a competition, including Du Shaofu.
Far away in the Dark Forest, Du Shaofu had once thought about how far he would be able to go when he competed with the experts of the same generation in the Central Plains.
And now, such an opportunity was right in front of him.
