His cold words sent a chill down everyone's spine.
Wen Longhai, in particular, was shaking all over as if he had fallen into an icy hell.
He finally understood that making Ling Xian his enemy was a mistake, a complete and utter mistake.
It wasn't that Ling Xian was undefeatable, it was that he had no right to be his enemy.
Therefore, Wen Longhai's heart was full of bitterness and his eyes dimmed.
The leader of the Wen Clan felt the same.
Wen Longhai was lucky that he only lost an arm. What he lost was the Clan Leader position.
This meant he was no longer in glory and could only live a miserable life.
"Ling Xian, I will remember this. One day, I will avenge myself for today's humiliation."
The leader of the Wen Clan threw down a threat and left.
Wen Longhai did the same.
Before he left, he glared at Ling Xian. His hatred intensified and his killer's intent intensified.
Ling Xian's expression was calm and unfazed.
The Wen Clan was not a real immortal Clan. Even if they use all their strength, they cannot threaten him.
"I hope you can be smarter. Or else next time, I will not be merciful."
Ling Xian's gaze was deep as he looked at the leader of the Mei Clan, "Leader Mei, I can enter the second round, right?"
"Of course." The leader of the Mei Clan nodded with a smile.
The heavenly array on the stone did not pale next to the Mei Clan's array. Naturally, he passed without a doubt.
Nobody had any objections.
"Very good." Ling Xian softly grinned and relaxed.
Not only did he pass, but without the Wen Clan, he no longer had to worry about traps and could easily enjoy the event.
"Brother Ling, you sure are impressive. I cannot believe you were able to beat me at my own game."
Mei Yan Rou softly sighed and expressed her admiration.
Honestly, if she was in his shoes, she would've chosen to avoid the traps. There was no way she could have done what Ling Xian did.
"You are flattering me. I can only say that the Wen Clan is too dumb."
Ling Xian shook his head with a smile, "Using arrays to fool me, what a joke."
"That's true. If Wen Longhai knew you were an array grandmaster, he would've killed himself."
Remembering Ling Xian's unpredictable array skills, Mei Yan Rou softly sighed, "If the Wen Clan had treasures, then they could have tricked you."
Hearing this, Ling Xian smiled but didn't say anything.
Although he was not a Tools Method Great Grandmaster, he was only a step away from being a Great Grandmaster, and could not be deceived.
"In the past, I was worried about you. Now that I think about it, my worries were unnecessary."
Mei Yan Rou faintly smiled and said, "You really don't disappoint."
"You are flattering me." Ling Xian waved his hand and no longer spoke.
Seeing this, Soft Mist tactfully retreated to the side and did not say anything.
A while later, the leader of the Mei Clan rose to his feet and said, "The rules of the second round are similar to the first round, but you will have to choose five gems."
Hearing this, the crowd was in an uproar and many people frowned.
Although there were only two more gems than the first round, the difficulty had increased by several times.
After all, the Wondrous Stone was mysterious and unpredictable. Even a Grandmaster who had been famous for a long time could not guarantee a 100% success rate.
"Alright, I hereby announce the start of the second round!"
The leader of the Mei Clan waved his sleeve. Instantly, countless strange stones appeared. They looked like a sky full of stars, uncountable in number.
Compared to the first round, the quality of the stones this time was without a doubt, much better. However, the amount of wasted stones had multiplied, which increased the difficulty.
Therefore, other than the three leaders, everyone else frowned.
Ling Xian frowned as well. But very quickly, his brows relaxed.
For him, who had the Golden Testing Hand and the Inner Gaze, most of the stones could not trouble him.
He marched forward and was the first to identify the stone.
Seeing this, everyone else began to move as well. At once, all kinds of techniques were used and lit up the universe.
Some of the techniques were circulating, others were emitting heavenly light. To sum it up, it was mysterious and extremely mysterious.
This was a feast for everyone's eyes. Every now and then, exclamations arose.
However, some people still did not use their techniques.
For example, the three leaders. For example, Ling Xian.
He had inherited the Seeking Ghost Cultivator's inheritance and knew all kinds of special stones like the back of his hand. Therefore, even though he only looked at the stone's appearance, he was 80% to 90% sure.
Of course, to prevent any accidents, he would also use the Golden Testing Hand after he made his choice.
Just like that, Ling Xian walked through the sky full of strange stones. Very quickly, he chose five stones.
Though based on the feedback from the Golden Testing Hand, the treasures inside these five stones were not shocking, it was enough for him to pass the first round.
He was too lazy to choose carefully. After he made his choice, he opened it up.
Immediately, five rays of light appeared, causing a series of exclamations.
The masters were a little surprised as well. The way they looked at Ling Xian was heavy.
It was obvious that they were treating him as a strong opponent.
Then, the competitors finished their selections one after another. The result was shocking.
Because only nine people passed the second round. Three of them were leaders, five of them were grandmasters, and the last one was Ling Xian.
Everyone else failed. Whether it was the long-established Grandmaster or the rising stars like Soft Mist and Mo Qingsi, none of them were able to pick out five gems.
This result shocked everyone. Even the leader of the Mei Clan was surprised.
For one, so many masters and Heaven's Favorites were eliminated. For two, Ling Xian passed.
In terms of age, he and Mei Yan Rou were from the same generation. Yet Mei Yan Rou failed and he passed. Of course, everyone was shocked.
"What a strong stone mastery. He is definitely comparable to a grandmaster!"
"This level of mastery … he is definitely the best of Mei Yan's generation!"
"With him here, the title of the Four Heroes is a joke."
Everyone discussed. Some were shocked, some were bitter.
Especially the masters who were eliminated, they were full of defeat.
They were much older than Ling Xian, yet they lost to him. Naturally, they were shocked.
"Brother Ling sure is impressive."
Mei Yan Rou softly sighed. Mo Qing Si sighed as well.
Though they expected this, when they actually lost to Ling Xian, they couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
"No matter what the result is, his name will shock the world."
"He defeated Mei Yan Rou, Mo Qing Si, and other Heaven's Favorites of his generation. His light is unmatched. Even the older generation cannot compare."
"Yes, at least in terms of rare stones, he can be said to be shining brightly."
Everyone exclaimed. They knew that after today, Ling Xian's name will shock the world and everyone will know about him!
"I knew you'd shine."
Chi Liaoyuan exclaimed. Then, his gaze turned determined and he murmured to himself, "In terms of stone mastery, not even 10,000 of me can compare to you. But, I am competing against you in terms of cultivation, in terms of battling abilities! "
"One day, I will defeat you!"
Chi Liaoyuan's belief was firm and his fighting spirit was high.
"The new generation always surpasses the old."
The leader of the Mei Clan exclaimed. Then, he turned serious, "The third round is the last round of the stone evaluation competition. The four with the best results will get to see the King of Stone."
Hearing this, all nine of them were startled.
Ling Xian, in particular, was frowning.
Out of the four spots, there had to be three of them. In other words, he had to defeat five grandmasters to get to see the King of Stone.
