"There's really no comparison. The ten great grade-9 sects have not been able to shake their positions for hundreds of years … The grade-8 sects don't even have a third of their numbers, let alone us?"
"This is the general trend. They'll only get stronger and stronger. Which super genius in the Eastern Continent doesn't want to enter a grade-9 sect? The aptitudes of the disciples they recruit are much stronger than ours … Moreover, the gap will only get bigger and bigger until it's impossible to overcome … "
When the ten great grade-9 sects appeared one after another and lined up in front of the ten test lights, the entire training field was in a heated discussion.
The Spirit Serpent Valley had more than 200 people. The Origin School had the most with almost 500 people.
Fortunately, even though there were many grade-9 sects, only a few of them had stepped into the Incarnation Stage. Three from the Origin School, two from the Sky Sword Sect, two from the Floating Mist Sect, and two from the Ling Tian Sect. The other six great grade-9 sects, including the Spirit Serpent Valley, had one each.
…
Xia Youyou appeared before Chu Qingtian, Wu Ruochen, and Gu Xing. Even the veil on her face could not hide her peerless beauty. Her jade-like hand did not move at all. She did not even use any ultimate technique. With just a casual palm strike, she lit up the limit that no one could surpass. 100 stones!
What did this mean?
It meant that Xia Youyou's true attack power definitely exceeded 100 stones. As for how much it exceeded, it was not something that anyone could predict …
…
"Not bad, not bad. Brother Xia, your precious granddaughter is really compatible with Qingtian … Haha, if I remember correctly, your granddaughter is turning 20 this year, right? " Just as Xia Youyou casually lit up 100 stones, Yin Cangqiong, the Sect Master of the Origin School, stroked his long beard with a smile on his face as he looked at Xia Lingfeng.
"Brother Yin, you flatter me. Youyou will turn 20 in a few months … "Xia Lingfeng smiled. On the surface, there was nothing unusual, but in his heart, he was conflicted.
He knew his granddaughter the best and understood her the most. Therefore, even he could not act arbitrarily now. When he stood up for Chen Hao because of Fan Fang, it meant that Xia Lingfeng was beginning to let go. The day before yesterday, Chen Hao had displayed a strength that was several times stronger than his cultivation level. Xia Lingfeng had almost loosened his grip on Chen Hao. Although it didn't mean that they would accept Chen Hao, they had to start weighing Chen Hao's value in the future. This was something that the Sect Master had to consider. Everything had to be done in the interest of the sect.
"Not bad, not bad. If there are no surprises, the first and second place will be Qingtian and You You. As for who will be the first, it will depend on how these two little fellows fight … Haha. Brother Xia, why don't we settle the matter after the competition? In this way, their strength and mental state will surely improve once more …. "
"This … Brother Yin, You You has never experienced anything, so she doesn't have any concept of love. If it's too fast, it won't be a good thing. Moreover, I also asked about it indirectly. Even if it was me, it would not be good for me to forcefully interfere. However, I believe that with Qingtian's strength, talent, and appearance, you will definitely be able to gain You You's favor … So, Brother Yin, it's better that we don't interfere. Let these young people train themselves. Wouldn't that be better? "
"That's right! Brother Xia is right! Ruochen has been admiring your precious granddaughter for a long time. Moreover, it's not right for us to interfere with the matters of the younger generation. Moreover, a forcibly picked melon won't be sweet, right? Only when they are truly in love with each other can they truly reap the benefits … "The Sect Master of Sky Sword Sect said.
"Yes, yes. That's what I meant … "Xia Lingfeng hurriedly replied.
"Haha … Since all of you have said so, let them be! With Qingtian's strength, why would he be afraid of others competing with him? Haha …. "
…
Wu Ruochen, who was next, didn't disappoint. Although his performance wasn't as relaxed as Xia You You, he also lit up 100 crystals. Gu Xing was on par with Wu Ruochen. He also used a terrifying technique and lit up 100 crystals.
Yuan Gate had the most people, and Chu Qingtian was standing at the back. He was the last disciple to take the test.
Under everyone's gazes, Chu Qingtian exuded a domineering aura. He also waved his hand casually, and rows of purple crystals lit up one after another at a shocking speed. Soon, a hundred of them had bloomed!
…
Hiss! Hiss!
In the incomparably huge Cultivation Room, there were streaks of ever-changing sword light drifting about. Sometimes they were fierce and violent, sometimes they were ethereal and gentle, and sometimes they would release streaks of resplendent and dazzling white light, causing all the sword light to instantly disappear. Sometimes they would release billowing pitch-black smoke that covered the sky and the sun, causing the entire Cultivation Room to be immersed in boundless darkness.
Chen Hao, who was shirtless, had been immersed in this state for two days and two nights. He was trying his best to discover all the abilities that he could use.
When the sun rose and illuminated the entire Dongxuan City, Chen Hao, who was immersed in his cultivation, finally stopped.
"Phew …."
Letting out a long sigh, Chen Hao's eyes flickered with a wisp of confidence. "Although the offensive strength of the Platinum Skysplit is still only able to light up 95 stars, the battle prowess after fusing various profundities is absolutely not something that offensive strength can compare to … Moreover, I've already mastered the ultimate move, and I can use it five times in succession …"
Chen Hao thought to himself. After going through the baptism of Heaven's Punishment, his sword realm and attributes did not increase. His understanding of the Wind and Space attributes did not increase either. However, after two days of targeted cultivation, Chen Hao believed that his combat power would not be lower than any mid-stage Incarnation Realm cultivator. In particular, Chen Hao picked up the True Essences of Darkness and Light that he hadn't touched for a long time, causing his attacks to become even more unpredictable.
The darkness and light attributes were comprehended by Chen Hao and Chen Xue in the Level 4 cave abode in the Ancient Black Wind Cave. Although their realms were very low, these two attributes were second only to the Space attribute and the Time attribute that only existed in legends.
"It's a pity that my sword realm is too weak. Moreover, it's not under my control at all. This is so f * cking weird …."
Chen Hao clearly felt that his sword realm had already given birth to a trace of sword realm will. However, this will was not under Chen Hao's control at all. It changed at any time and place on its own. It was like a temperamental resentful woman. Chen Hao had no choice but to change his attack style according to its changes. Otherwise, it would really be a David David. Chen Hao couldn't possibly be fierce when it was gentle, and gentle when it was fierce … That would be the opposite of what he wanted!
…
"Chen Hao, come here for a while!"
Just as Chen Hao pushed open the door of the cultivation room and was about to take a breather, Yuwen Tairan's voice sounded.
Obviously, he had been paying attention to Chen Hao's situation.
Chen Hao responded. He put on the Star Picking Robe and walked out of his palace.
"Haha …."
Seeing that Helian Wuzi and Tantai Lian were walking together, and when the others also walked out of their palaces, Chen Hao smiled slightly. His figure flashed, and he came to the side of the two women. He said, "You've made up?"
Hearing Chen Hao's words, the two girls blushed. Immediately, Helian Wuzi and Tantai Lian looked at each other. They grabbed Chen Hao's arm at the same time and pinched Chen Hao's waist.
"Cough cough … What are you doing?" Chen Hao grabbed the two little hands as fast as lightning. He was a little surprised.
"You lied to me. You said that Xiao Wu agreed …" Tantai Lian said.
"You tricked us!" Helian Wuzi also stared at Chen Hao and said.
"This is called lying, and also called tricking? Don't you think it's fine now? Alright, the Sect Leader is calling. Let's go! " Chen Hao let go of their hands. His figure swayed, and he was a few meters away from them. He took the lead and walked into the hall of the palace.
…
When he found out that Xia Youyou, Chu Qingtian, Gu Xing, and Wu Ruochen had all lit up 100 stones, Chen Hao was a little surprised. Especially when he heard that Xia Youyou and Chu Qingtian had only casually attacked. This surprised Chen Hao even more. This guy did not seem to realize what it meant for him to light up 95 stones when he was only in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. He only realized that there was a big gap between his attack power and theirs …
After all, it was extremely difficult to light up one more stone. Not to mention that Xia Youyou and Chu Qingtian had casually lit up 100 stones.
However, what shocked Chen Hao even more was when he heard that Leng Yihan had stepped into the early stage of the Incarnation Realm and had lit up 96 stones …
This was too freakish, wasn't it?
Just like Xia Youyou said, one's realm was also a kind of strength. Before coming to Dongxuan City, Chen Hao originally thought that Leng Yihan, who had stepped into the world of cultivation at the same time as him, had been left far behind. However, when he first met him, Chen Hao knew that although Leng Yihan did not have any reputation in the world of cultivation, he had quietly reached the peak of the late stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. But that was not all. How could he have stepped into the Incarnation Realm in just three or four days?
This was too freaking fast …
"Chen Hao, your battle power … what level has it reached? What are your goals for this competition? " After the Fourth Elder and the Seventh Elder explained the general situation of the participating disciples, especially those who were on par with the disciples of the Star-Picking Sect, Yuwen Tairan could not help but ask.
There was nothing he could do about it. Chen Hao was too mysterious even for him, the Sect Master. He was unable to measure Chen Hao's strength. He could clearly see Chen Hao's cultivation level, but his battle prowess was something that could not be measured without a real battle. This was especially true for a monstrous genius like Chen Hao, who was rarely seen in hundreds of years.
"Don't worry, Sect Leader. I will do my best! As for what level I can reach, I can't say for now … but I should be able to fight in the Incarnation Realm … "
"That's good, that's good. The competition will officially begin in five days. If you need anything, just say it. No matter what it is, as long as the Star-Picking Sect can do it, we will satisfy you. Also, Yukong, Xiaowu, Xiaolian, Feixue, and the rest of you, if you have any requests, quickly think about it. Tomorrow, Dongxuan City will hold the grandest auction in the Eastern Continent. It is specifically for the competition and will last until the day before the Inter-Sect Competition. When the time comes, I will take you to see it … "Yuwen Tairan said to the ten people who had qualified for the competition.
"I don't lack anything …" Chen Hao said directly. He did not lack anything, but he lacked time.
Soon, Long Yukong and the others also expressed that they did not lack anything. However, Helian Wuzi and Tantai Lian looked like they wanted to say something.
