(Second Update)
In the afternoon, Chen Zong, Zhan Ying, and Xu Zhan Tian left the courtyard and walked to the main street of the Ultimate Martial Main City like everyone else.
The city was bustling and they wanted to see it for themselves.
However, they were going to participate in the Four Great Academies' disciple recruitment exam tomorrow. Time was tight, so they couldn't walk around and could only walk around.
After walking for half an hour, the three of them walked into a restaurant that looked pretty good. There was an empty table, so they ordered a few dishes and a pot of wine. Just like that, they chatted while listening to the conversations of other people in the restaurant.
Perhaps it was because of the approaching grand event, everyone's conversation was about the Four Great Academies' disciple recruitment exam.
"Just like the previous years, those who are going to participate in the Four Great Academies' disciple recruitment exam should be disciples from those forces."
"Five Great Academies, Ultimate Martial Main City's Eight Great Academies, who else are there?"
"The White Dragon Gang's influence is huge. This time, there should be disciples from the gang participating."
"I think the Dongfang Clan's disciples should also participate. Although the Dongfang Clan has declined and might not be comparable to the Ultimate Martial Main City's Eight Great Academies, they are still one of the Royal Clans of the Kingdom Era. They have a deep foundation, so it's normal for one or two top prodigies to appear."
"There should be disciples from the Iron Finger Clan. Although there aren't many of them, every one of them is a prodigy."
The disciples of the Ultimate Martial Main City's Eight Great Academies would usually enter the Five Great Academies, but not all of them. A small portion of them would be trained by themselves. After all, the Eight Great Academies had a strong foundation, and each of them had at least two True Martial Realm experts. Under their guidance, the results might be better than entering the Five Great Academies.
After Chen Zong and the other two heard this, they were very surprised. They didn't expect that there would be so many disciples from other forces participating in the exam other than the Five Great Academies. It seemed like the competition would be very intense.
"Every time the Four Great Academies' disciple recruitment exam is different. I wonder what it will be like this time?"
"Apart from the Four Great Academies, no one knows. We will find out tomorrow."
The Four Great Academies' disciple recruitment exam was divided into two parts. The first part was the elimination round.
As the name suggested, the elimination round would first eliminate a portion of the participants. Only those who could pass the elimination round would be qualified to become a disciple of the four academies.
It should be known that those who were able to participate in the assessment were all more outstanding than ordinary warriors. They could be called elites. To be able to pass the elimination round, in addition to their own luck, they also needed to have excellent strength. They could be called elites among elites. Only then would they have the qualifications to enter the Four Great Academies.
The previous elimination round was a battle royale. No one knew what it would be this time. Everyone was very curious and kept guessing.
"Why don't we guess who will be in the top ten of the Training stage in the ranking competition after the elimination round?"
"Sure, I think Nangong Tianze of the Nangong Family will be one of them. He might even be able to get into the top three."
"The Ultimate Martial Martial Academy's Ouyang Jianlin is also very strong. He is an extremely terrifying sword cultivator. He will definitely be ranked in the top ten."
"And the young master of the White Dragon Gang, Shui Zhengtao, is also very strong."
"Don't forget, the disciple of the Iron Finger Sect, Fang Jinlong. His Iron Finger Technique is extremely terrifying. He can pierce through treasured iron."
Everyone named the strong young warriors in their minds one by one. What surprised Chen Zong and the other two was that Gu Xiaolin and the other two were not mentioned. It was unclear whether it was because there were too few people who knew about them or because their strength was not recognized.
"Don't forget, there are some who were eliminated in the previous round. After three years of hard work, their strength must be even stronger. Some of them might be able to get into the top ten."
"That's true."
"In that case, there are too many people who might be in the top ten. Why don't we talk about the Qi and Blood Realm warriors who might be in the top ten?"
"There are more Qi and Blood Realm warriors than Training Realm warriors. It is more difficult to name a top ten. After all, if one's luck is bad, they might not be able to pass the elimination round."
"That's true. However, I think there are still some people who, even if their luck is average, will definitely be able to pass the elimination round and enter the top ten."
"Oh, who are they?"
Immediately, many people's interest was piqued. Chen Zong and the other two were also listening attentively.
"Nangong Honglie of the Nangong Family. This person was born with divine strength. When he became a warrior, his arm strength was already three thousand pounds. He is very terrifying. His fist strength is fierce and his legs are violent. There are few who can match him under the Training Realm. It is said that he once fought two rounds with a Training Realm first transition martial artist and did not lose. It is said that Nangong Honglie's talent is even above Nangong Tianze's. The only difference is his age.
He is definitely in the top ten. "" I know of a person called Qin Shijia. He is known for his superb perception. He can comprehend the essence of any martial art and reach the Perfection Realm in a short time. He can reach the Minute Subtlety Realm without spending too much time. "
Everyone expressed their opinions and mentioned the top geniuses they knew.
There were disciples of the Ultimate Martial Martial Institution, disciples of the White Dragon Gang, disciples of the Dongfang Family, Nangong Family, and Iron Finger Clan.
"In the last round, Zhong Chongyue from the Seven Lights Martial Institution made it into the top ten of the Qi and Blood Realm and was ranked ninth. This time, will the Seven Lights Martial Institution also have a disciple who can make it into the top ten?"
"I don't think there's anyone in the Qi and Blood Realm. I don't think there's anyone in the Qi and Blood Realm either."
"I heard that there's a person called Chen Zong. He seems to be pretty good, but he can't compare to top geniuses like Qin Shijia and Nangong Honglie. I don't think he has a chance to make it into the top ten."
They didn't know that Chen Zong was here. Of course, even if they did know, they wouldn't have avoided it.
After all, Chen Zong had suddenly disappeared for almost two months. Those two months were also the time when the top geniuses truly revealed their talents and entered the eyes of the world. Naturally, he was ignored.
"Brother Chen, you have been underestimated." Zhan Ying said with a smile. The more he interacted with Chen Zong, the more he felt that Chen Zong was strong.
"Underestimating or not is only on the surface." Chen Zong said with a smile, "We will only know who is strong and who is weak after we fight."
There was a kind of indescribable confidence in his words.
Chen Zong was even confident that he could compete with a martial artist in the Qi Refining Realm, let alone a martial artist in the Qi Blood Realm.
After the three drank a pot of wine and ate some side dishes, they got up and left the restaurant to return to their temporary residence. Other than them, no one else knew that Chen Zong had been here before.
Not long after they walked out of the restaurant, Chen Zong and the other two saw Yi Qianren standing opposite someone.
"Kneel down and apologize. Loudly say that you are a piece of trash, and I will forgive you this time." The person opposite them looked to be less than twenty years old, but he was very tall. He grinned and said with a malicious expression.
"Don't even think about it." Yi Qianren's face was tense, and his tone was stiff.
"If you don't kneel, I will beat you until you kneel." The person's tone was very domineering. He took a step forward, and like a gust of wind, he rushed forward a few meters and punched Yi Qianren fiercely. The punch was fierce, like a violent wave. Under the pressure, Yi Qianren couldn't even breathe.
After recovering from the incident with Messenger Blood Bat, Yi Qianren's Spiritual Will had become more condensed, and his strength had also increased. He raised his right hand and struck out with one of his maces, while the other smashed towards the opponent's shoulder.
"Weakling!" The opponent's face was full of mockery. The punch suddenly accelerated, faster and more ferocious. The sudden acceleration disrupted Yi Qianren's attack rhythm, and he had to cross his maces to defend.
With a bang, the punch hit the maces, and a terrifying force exploded. The force of the punch was shocking, and it caused the maces to tremble. It pressed down on Yi Qianren's chest, and Yi Qianren was forced to retreat. The web between his thumb and forefinger was torn, and his palms were twisted. His arms were numb and painful.
"You can't even withstand a single blow!" The opponent laughed coldly and arrogantly. He took another step forward and punched out again. This time, the punch was even more ferocious, and it was aimed at Yi Qianren's chest. Yi Qianren couldn't defend himself at the moment, and if he was hit, he would definitely be severely injured. He wouldn't even be able to participate in the competition tomorrow.
In the blink of an eye, a round and white palm that seemed to be glowing appeared behind Yi Qianren. It went past Yi Qianren and collided with the fist.
With a bang, the palm retracted immediately upon contact. The fist's owner's arm shook, and his body swayed. He had to take a step back.
"Who are you? How dare you interfere with my business? You must be tired of living." Nangong Wulie glared at Chen Zong with a ferocious aura.
"Nangong Wulie!"
Chen Zong was slightly stunned, while Xu Zhantian and Zhan Ying were shocked. They had heard of this name in the restaurant just now. He was Nangong Honglie's disciple. Although he wasn't as outstanding as Nangong Honglie, he was still much stronger than the average peak Qi and Blood Realm Level Nine. He could be considered a genius.
They didn't expect Yi Qianren's enemy to be him. Other than his own strength, he was also a disciple of the Nangong Family, the number one force in Ultimate Martial Main City.
"What's wrong with you guys?" At this moment, a group of martial artists wearing light armor and carrying long sabers strode over. They were the Ultimate Martial Main City's guards, responsible for maintaining the security of the main city.
"You're also a disciple of the Seven Luminaries Martial School, right? You better get lost now, or I'll show you my power tomorrow." Nangong Wulie left a threat and quickly retreated.
Although the Nangong Family was the number one force in Ultimate Martial Main City, it didn't mean that they could cover the sky with one hand. Especially when he was only a disciple of the family and not the most valued one. He wouldn't dare to openly go against the main city's guards.
"Remember, no fighting is allowed in Ultimate Martial Main City." The guards warned Chen Zong and the others and continued their patrol.
"Let's go back." Chen Zong said and walked back to the temporary residence of the Seven Luminaries Martial School's disciples with Zhan Ying, Xu Zhantian, and Yi Qianren.
Along the way, they didn't ask Yi Qianren about this matter because they could tell that Yi Qianren didn't want to talk about it.
"Brother Chen, be careful tomorrow." Zhan Ying said.
"Yes, the Nangong Family's influence is huge, and Nangong Wulie is also very strong. His elder brother, Nangong Honglie, is even stronger. If they deliberately target you, it will be very troublesome." Xu Zhantian said.
Although they were confident in Chen Zong, they could more or less infer Nangong Honglie's strength from the news they heard. It must be very terrifying, and whether Chen Zong was his match was still unknown.
