Tian Shuang took a deep look at Chen Zong. Then, he retracted his gaze and silently walked down the Life and Death Arena.
He had lost.
Chen Zong's final sword strike had defeated Tian Shuang, who had already exhausted all of his energy.
Chen Zong heaved a sigh of relief. He could only feel exhaustion sweeping over him like a tidal wave. In an instant, it was as if a torrent had broken through a dam and spread to every part of his body. There was no place that did not ache. His body involuntarily staggered and almost fell.
Exhausted!
He had also exhausted all of his energy in this battle. The reason for his exhaustion was that he had used the World Sword Technique, Suppressing Mountains and Rivers.
That was an ultimate technique that surpassed Ao Wu's. It was a Great Path Ultimate Technique.
Great Path Ultimate Techniques corresponded to the fourth level. In other words, under normal circumstances, only fourth level cultivators could master Great Path Ultimate Techniques. It wasn't impossible for third level cultivators to master Great Path Ultimate Techniques. However, it was extremely difficult. Very, very few people had the chance to master Great Path Ultimate Techniques.
Those who could master Great Path Ultimate Techniques were at least at the True Transcendent Realm. However, Chen Zong was only at the Final Transcendent Realm.
Undoubtedly, to Chen Zong, the energy consumption of Great Path Ultimate Techniques was shocking. He had almost been drained in an instant.
If that sword strike hadn't been able to defeat Tian Shuang, then the one who would have lost would have been him.
Fortunately, although Tian Shuang was very strong, the Suppressing Mountains and Rivers Sword Technique seemed to be even stronger.
"It really is a Great Path Ultimate Technique." The fifth level cultivators were all shocked.
"It is an ultimate technique. However, it has barely reached the threshold of a Star Level Ultimate Technique. It can't be considered a true ultimate technique." The Senior Commander thought to himself. Even so, it was enough to shock him. He made a prompt decision. The hesitation in his heart was instantly shattered by that sword strike. He immediately made a decision. His eyes shone brightly as he stared at Chen Zong. It was as if he wanted to see through him.
"He won." Wu Liu and Huan Ming were both very excited.
It was unexpected that Chen Zong could defeat Tian Shuang. His strength was amazing. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was the strongest person below the Divine Generals List.
Of course, they knew that Chen Zong had killed Ao De, an expert on the Divine Generals List. They had seen it with their own eyes, but they were also clear that it was definitely not Chen Zong's own strength, but some kind of external means.
Anyway, Chen Zong had defeated Tian Shuang and advanced to the top four, which meant that he had gotten one of the five places. Chen Zong was their teammate. Even if Chen Zong left the team later, they were still teammates. It was an honor that belonged to their team.
In the future, when new members joined, he could brag to them.
Thinking about it, Wu Liu and Huan Ming couldn't help but smile at each other.
Chen Zong had made it to the top four. Without a doubt, he had gotten one of the five places.
Next, the battle continued, and victory and defeat were decided.
"Congratulations on making it to the top four and getting one of the places to be the guardian of the ship." The commander sat at the head of the table and looked down. His eyes seemed to contain some kind of divine will as he glanced at them. "The fifth place belongs to Tian Shuang. Any objections?"
No one had any objections. Although Tian Shuang was defeated by Chen Zong, it was not because he was weak. He was very strong. Among all the Third Realms present, other than Chen Zong, no one was a match for Tian Shuang.
Therefore, it was natural that the fifth place belonged to Chen Zong.
"From today onwards, your soldiers will be promoted from White Feather level to Red Feather level," the commander said.
In the Trade Wind Brothel, soldiers were divided into ranks. White Feather level was the lowest level and could receive White Feather Clear Wind Armor. Above White Feather level was Red Feather level, and the armor they received was naturally different and of a higher level. Above Red Feather level was Purple Feather level.
In the three divisions, only White Feather level could be promoted. Red Feather level could only be promoted to the second division. As for Purple Feather level, they could only be promoted to the first division or even the main division.
After getting one of the spots to be the guardian of the ship, one would be promoted to Red Feather level and receive the Red Feather Clear Wind Armor. The previous White Feather Clear Wind Armor naturally had to be returned to the Trade Wind Brothel. After all, the creation of the Clear Wind Armor was not a simple matter.
Chen Zong quickly refined the Red Feather Clear Wind Armor. With a flash of light, it landed on his body and turned into a close-fitting sword robe that would not affect his movements at all.
Red Feather Clear Wind Robe!
The Red Feather Clear Wind Armor was in its original form. After refining it, one could change its appearance according to one's wishes. Of course, only the appearance would change, but its essence would not change at all.
Compared to the Clear Wind Armor of the White Feather level, the Clear Wind Armor of the Red Feather level could increase the user's speed by 20%. Moreover, its defensive power was even stronger. It could withstand more powerful attacks and offset more of the power of the attacks. It could better protect the user.
Without a doubt, Chen Zong, who had obtained the Red Feather Clear Wind Armor, became stronger.
When Chen Zong came out of seclusion, he was told that the commander wanted to see him.
The one who summoned Chen Zong was the commander of the third camp, a peak Fifth Level King.
"Chen Zong greets the commander." Chen Zong saluted the commander with his sword.
"En, follow me. The commander wants to see you." The commander said.
Chen Zong was shocked when he heard this.
The commander!
That was a Sixth Level Emperor! It was said that there was a huge difference between him and a Fifth Level King. It was a difference that was close to the essence.
Soon, Chen Zong saw the commander in a tall building.
The commander sat on a chair with a golden sword and a golden saber. His aura was completely restrained, but it still made Chen Zong feel an indescribable pressure. This kind of pressure was like the undercurrent in the deep sea. It was not obvious, but it was extremely terrifying. It could easily destroy everything.
Such a powerful person only needed a wisp of his aura to kill a Third Level King.
"Chen Zong from the eighth team of the third camp's third brigade greets the commander." Chen Zong took a deep breath and saluted with his sword.
"No need for formalities." The Grand Commander didn't move, but his eyes flickered with a bright light as he stared at Chen Zong. It was as though he wanted to see through Chen Zong, causing Chen Zong's heart to feel increasingly heavy.
"You are very good. With this kind of talent, you can be ranked among the top even in the headquarters," the commander said slowly. The Grand Commander said with a smile, "However, it's not easy to go to the Main Building and get groomed by the Main Building."
Chen Zong listened quietly. He had some guesses in his heart.
"You are a smart person. I will not beat around the bush with you." The commander continued, "I have a recommendation in my hands. You can go to the headquarters to train."
"Train in the headquarters!" Chen Zong's heart skipped a beat.
The headquarters of the Trade Wind Gang was one of the major forces in the Wanyuan Territory. It was much more powerful than the Nine Heavens Imperial Court. Not only were there Sixth Level Emperors, but there were also Seventh Level Emperor-level powerhouses. In addition, there were also countless top prodigies.
Sooner or later, he would go out and explore a wider world. He would challenge more difficulties.
If he could be a step earlier, then it would be better. It would be beneficial.
"What do I have to pay?" Although Chen Zong was tempted and excited, he did not lose his mind. On the contrary, he calmed himself down and asked.
Chen Zong's performance made the commander even more satisfied. To be able to remain calm in the face of such great temptation, this kind of temperament was indeed beyond the reach of ordinary people.
"If you can perform well in the headquarters, you will be repaying me. The better your performance, the greater the reward I will receive in the end," the commander said with a smile.
This was like making an investment.
If Chen Zong was recommended to the headquarters by the commander, it would be equivalent to having a relationship with him. Although it was not a master-disciple relationship, it was like the relationship between a scholar and an examiner. It was equivalent to being a student. If Chen Zong performed very well in the headquarters, as the person who recommended Chen Zong, the commander would also receive corresponding benefits and rewards from the headquarters.
That was the so-called reward.
Of course, there was another point. If Chen Zong became a Sixth Level powerhouse or even stronger in the future, he would also remember the commander's kindness in recommending him. If the commander had any difficulties and needed help, Chen Zong would also lend a helping hand. This was equivalent to an intangible reward.
However, the reward from the headquarters was a more direct reward. When Chen Zong became a powerhouse, the reward was more indirect. Whether he could achieve it in the end was still unknown.
After all, no one could guarantee that they would be able to live forever. Even if they could live, there was no guarantee that they would become a powerhouse in the universe and not eventually fade into the masses.
Therefore, the recommendation quota was somewhat of a gamble. If the gamble was right, they would be rich. If the gamble was wrong, they would just waste a quota and would not harm their own interests.
After all, such a recommendation quota was not only available once in a lifetime. With the commander's status and strength, he could get a quota every hundred years. Moreover, it was impossible to accumulate.
"Are you willing to accept my recommendation and go to the headquarters?" the commander asked in a low and powerful voice as he stared at Chen Zong.
"Commander, I am not from the Mystical Light Universe. I am from the Ninth Heaven Universe and am a disciple of the Nine Heavens Imperial Court," Chen Zong said truthfully. "Now, I plan to return to the Nine Heavens Imperial Court."
"It doesn't matter. In half a year, the space-crossing divine ship will set off for the Ninth Heaven Universe. With the speed of the space-crossing divine ship, it will only take ten years to reach the Ninth Heaven Universe and send you directly to the Nine Heavens Imperial Court." The commander smiled and said, "However, if you are willing to go to the headquarters to cultivate, there is not much time left for you. You can only stay in the Ninth Heaven Universe for ten years at most. After that, you must return here with the space-crossing divine ship and I will send you to the headquarters to cultivate."
"Okay." Chen Zong thought for a moment. Okay, I can go back to the Nine Heavens Imperial Court first. There are still ten years left. It is enough for me to make some arrangements.
The headquarters of the Trade Wind Sect was more powerful than the Nine Heavens Imperial Court. Perhaps I can make more significant progress there and become stronger.
"Remember, you can only stay in the Ninth Heaven Universe for ten years. After that, you must return here with the space-crossing divine ship." The commander reminded Chen Zong again and then waved his hand to let Chen Zong leave.
After saluting the commander with his sword, Chen Zong turned and walked out of the pavilion. The commander of the third battalion was waiting outside. When he saw Chen Zong come out, he did not ask anything and directly led Chen Zong away.
After returning to his residence, Chen Zong had already calmed down. After thinking for a while, he wholeheartedly cultivated.
