"I wonder what would have happened if I had become the disciple of War God Mangya back then?" Xiao Fan suddenly smiled as he muttered to himself. It was a little amused.
He was only one step away from truly becoming a disciple of the War God Mangya, and then becoming a personal disciple of the War God!
In the end, he and War God Mangya would never cross paths again. They would become two parallel lines that would never be separated. This could only make one sigh at the impermanence of the world!
Shaking his head, Xiao Fan no longer thought about it. He held the Akira Yuki in his arms and continued to wait for Yang Xiuyu's arrival.
Very soon, noon arrived!
In the east of Sinking Star City, a long sound of a bell rang out, spreading throughout the entire city. Everyone in Sinking Star City was startled by the sound!
War God Mangya's new disciple recruitment event had officially begun!
"Master, please use your sword!"
The moment the bell rang, the four disciples of the War God Brightshore opened their eyes, and a soul-stirring light shot out from within them. It was as if four peerless beasts had awoken. Then, they spoke in unison, and their figures twisted as they bowed towards the eastern sky, their expressions incomparably respectful!
Everyone's eyes also looked towards the east, and they couldn't help but hold their breaths!
In the east of the void!
A one meter long sword that was completely purplish gold in color and surrounded by countless tiny bolts of lightning descended from the sky like a divine sword that had descended from the heavens. In the end, it floated above everyone's heads and emanated a formless might that heavily pressed down upon everyone present!
Looking at the purple-gold sword, countless people's eyes were filled with awe.
This was War God Mangya's sword!
Every time War God Mangya recruited a new disciple, if he couldn't come in person, his sword would definitely descend. Then, it would represent War God Mangya to recruit the new disciple.
This time was no exception. War God Mangya was at the critical juncture of breaking through and couldn't come in person. So, the first thing to happen when the event began was the descent of War God Mangya's sword. It was equivalent to War God Mangya himself coming!
Xiao Fan also looked at the magic sword and raised his eyebrows!
Xiao Fan had heard some of the stories behind War God Mangya's sword in the past. Although the sword seemed to possess astonishing power, it was actually not a divine weapon. Moreover, in terms of material, it was only a common weapon used by Nirvana Tenth Cycle cultivators. Its material was extremely ordinary.
It was only because it was the first weapon that the War God Mangya had obtained when he was young that it held an extremely special and important meaning to him. That was why the War God Mangya had always kept this ordinary weapon by his side, treating it as a memory and a souvenir until now.
In the end, it had stayed by War God Mangya's side for ten thousand years. Thus, even though the material of this ordinary weapon was extremely ordinary and could even be said to be rather cheap, it had now become extremely extraordinary. Its might was astonishing, and it could directly kill any cultivator at the Heavy Yin Realm. Its might was more than ten million times stronger than before.
"Bye!"
The four disciples of the War God Mangya spoke in unison, their voices extremely low. Then, the four of them used impeccable etiquette to kowtow to the sword, as if they were greeting the War God Mangya himself.
"Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" "Whoosh!"
The geniuses of the various sects in the air, as well as the cultivators of the various sects on the ground, almost all of them bowed and kowtowed towards the violet golden sword, expressing their respect for the War God Brightshore.
However, not everyone kowtowed. There were still people who remained standing in place, but there were very few of them.
Although the War God Mangya's reputation was illustrious in the Eastern Domain, it did not mean that he did not have any enemies, nor did it mean that there was no one who disliked him!
Today was the day of the War God Mangya's disciple recruitment ceremony, and these people had also come. They were not here to participate in the competition, but to observe from a close distance.
Thus, when the War God Mangya's magic sword descended, although everyone else kowtowed, they did not need to do so. They stood tall and proud, not afraid in the slightest.
Xiao Fan and the others were naturally among the people who were standing there!
In the sky, Kong Lan, Ou Yangheng, Zhao Xiangnan, Lin Siyuan, and the other geniuses of the various sects had just lowered their heads. When they saw Xiao Fan and the others standing tall and proud on the ground, they sneered disdainfully, but couldn't be bothered to pay them any attention. Instead, they respectfully kowtowed to the War God Mangya's magic sword.
After a few breaths of time …
"The ceremony is over!"
The four disciples of the War God Mangya said in unison. Then, after kowtowing to the magic sword one last time, they turned and looked at the people in the sky and on the ground.
"Today, my master will be recruiting four new disciples!" One of the four disciples stepped forward and spoke in a calm voice. "The four of us, as well as senior apprentice-brother Yang Xiuyu, have the honor of being able to select new disciples on behalf of our master!"
"Now, the competition officially begins. You must do your best. The more outstanding you are, the greater your chances of being selected!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the ground beneath their feet began to shake violently. The intense tremors caused many people on the ground to be shocked. Their entire bodies swayed from side to side, and their battle prowess was almost unsteady.
Then, under the shocked gazes of countless people, a huge mountain rose up from the center of the square, rapidly rising upwards. In just a short dozen breaths of time, a black mountain that was ten thousand feet tall and exuded an extremely powerful pressure that made one's heart palpitate appeared before everyone's eyes!
"Now, those who are interested in becoming my master's disciple may climb the mountain!" One of the disciples stepped forward and looked down at the people below. Then, he said indifferently, "The rules are the same as before. Those who can reach the mountain peak within 15 minutes will pass the preliminary selection!"
"After that, those who pass the preliminary selection will be free to choose an opponent on the mountain peak. However, they can only choose one opponent at a time. If they defeat their opponent and knock them off the mountain peak, they will win one point!"
"If they defeat their opponent, they will receive all their points!"
"After the chaotic battle for two hours, those who remain on the mountain peak will be ranked according to their points. Only the top ten will be selected. Then, when senior apprentice-brother Yang Xiuyu arrives, four disciples will be selected from these ten!"
"Now, everyone may climb the mountain!"
"Let's go!"
"Let's go!"
As soon as the disciple of the War God Brightshore finished speaking, the various geniuses in the sky, as well as the many accompanying disciples, all rushed toward the black mountain with excited expressions on their faces.
Countless young figures also rushed out from the crowd on the ground. Each of them turned into streaks of light in the sky and rushed toward the black mountain.
Zhu Ningmo, Kong Lan, Ou Yangheng, Zhao Xiangnan, Lin Siyuan, and the others naturally got up as well. Moreover, they were the fastest and were at the front of the crowd.
Looking at all the figures rushing toward the black mountain, the spectators at the back were all amazed!
There were simply too many geniuses. Among them, there was no lack of geniuses who had extremely dazzling performances in the Eastern Region's first battle. Their final rankings were also quite high.
However, at this moment, all of them were eager to become disciples of the War God Brightshore. They were competing with all their might for the four spots of the War God Brightshore's new disciple. The intensity of the competition was not inferior to that of the Eastern Region's first battle.
Suddenly!
"Look, Song Nan is here too!" Someone cried out in shock as he looked at a young man with crimson hair that was as red as blood and an extremely oppressive aura that was particularly eye-catching.
"Song Nan, 1322nd in the Eastern Region's first battle. He's here too?" Hearing this, other people immediately exclaimed.
According to the usual practice of each Eastern Region's first battle, there would be 50,000 people who passed the first battle!
This time, the Eastern Region's first battle was the same. In the end, 50,000 people passed the first battle and were qualified to participate in the final battle of the geniuses of the three regions in two months.
Among the fifty thousand people, the brilliant geniuses were as numerous as the stars in the sky. No matter how outstanding one was in one's own sect, one would no longer be dazzling among the fifty thousand geniuses and become incomparably ordinary.
And to be able to kill more than 1,000 out of 50,000 people, this kind of battle record was simply amazing!
Of course, the ranking of the first battle was actually not accurate and did not mean anything!
This was because during the first battle, a considerable number of geniuses did not care about the ranking at all. They deliberately suppressed their ranking and waited for the final battle to catch their opponents off guard.
However, there were also people who cared about the ranking of the first battle and would go all out. Therefore, although the ranking of the first battle could not accurately represent the true strength of the 50,000 geniuses of the Eastern Region, it was still a considerable reference.
Song Nan was definitely an extremely terrifying result to be able to reach 1322nd place. Among the geniuses of the Eastern Region, Song Nan was definitely one of the most dazzling geniuses.
"And Xie Xuanyu is here too!" Someone shouted again. "In the Eastern Region's first battle, Xie Xuanyu killed his way onto the Dark Horse List and ended up ranked 1,186!"
"And Chen Wenyu is here too!" Exclamations rang out again and resounded in all directions. "In the Eastern Region's first battle, Chen Wenyu killed his way to 1072nd place!"
....
Along with the exclamations from the crowd, the famous geniuses of the Eastern Region were recognized one after another. Exclamations rang out continuously and did not stop for a long time.
In the sky, Zhu Ningmo, Kong Lan, Ou Yangheng, Zhao Xiangnan, Lin Siyuan, and the other geniuses of the various sects who were charging down from the sky stiffened. This was because Song Nan, Xie Xuanyu, Chen Wenyu, and the others had not shown up at all. They had been hiding in the crowd on the ground. Their sudden appearance had disrupted their pre-arranged alliance.
War God Mangya's new disciple competition allowed the geniuses of the various sects to form an alliance and then eliminate their opponents. Therefore, Zhu Ningmo, Kong Lan, Ou Yangheng, Zhao Xiangnan, Lin Siyuan, and the other geniuses of the various sects had arrived in advance and communicated with each other in the sky. Their real purpose was to form an alliance and formulate a plan to eliminate who would be eliminated first and who would be eliminated later.
