Genius One Second Remember Love Go/Small? We provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Pavilions of different styles stood on both sides of the street. Although they were different, they didn't feel out of place at all. Instead, they were full of harmony.

There were many shops, from small ones that sold some trinkets to big ones that sold all kinds of treasures. There was everything.

Chen Zong couldn't take it all in, but in the end, Chen Zong's gaze passed through countless pavilions and landed on a towering black figure in the distance.

Although it was quite far away, with Chen Zong's eyesight, he could clearly see that the towering black shadow was actually a tall tower.

The tower was octagonal, as if it was going to fly with the wind.

The black tower stood tall on the ground as if it had broken through the clouds. It was like a giant standing between the heaven and earth, exuding a monstrous divine aura. It made people feel as if they were looking up at a mountain and felt that they were insignificant.

"Heaven Ascension Tower!" Chen Zong said secretly. He couldn't help but feel a little excited.

The purpose of this trip was to challenge the Heaven Ascension Tower. However, when Chen Zong was in the Hundred Battles City, he learned that the Heaven Ascension Tower was not a place that anyone could challenge. There was only one chance every year. At that time, everyone who wanted to challenge the Heaven Ascension Tower would gather here.

"There's still half a month left." Chen Zong said secretly.

During this half a month, Chen Zong planned to stay in the Heaven Ascension City. As for applying for an entry order, he didn't plan to leave. He wouldn't leave until he finished challenging the Heaven Ascension Tower. Perhaps he wouldn't come back then, at least for a short time.

In the beginning, when he was still in the Longtu Region, Chen Zong had also thought of leaving the Longtu Region to train in other regions, but he had not been prepared. Now that he had coincidentally left the Longtu Region, he would continue to train himself. At the same time, he would also seek a way to treat Yuan Lingzi.

"Let's find a place to stay first." Muttering to himself, Chen Zong withdrew his gaze and looked around, looking for a restaurant or inn. Suddenly, Chen Zong's gaze froze, and his pupils focused straight ahead.

A cold and murderous gaze directly fell on Chen Zong's face from hundreds of meters away. If looks could kill, Chen Zong would have been riddled with holes by now.

"Xiahou Zhen." Chen Zong said softly. He was a little surprised to see Xiahou Zhen here, but he was not surprised either. After all, the Sacred Martial Palace was a high-ranked Sect. It was easy for them to have a foothold in Heaven Ascension City. As for Xiahou Zhen, he was a core disciple of the Sacred Martial Palace and a genius ranked on the Minor Heaven Ascension roll. Furthermore, the Heaven Ascension Pagoda was about to open in half a month. It was only normal for him to appear here. Love ↑ go △ little ↑ say △ w

"Chen Zong." Upon seeing Chen Zong again, the killing intent in Xiahou Zhen's heart seemed to awaken. It was on the brink of erupting. His body emanated a shocking killing intent that was as cold as hell, but also as violent as lightning and fire.

Immediately, the people around Xiahou Zhen retreated. Although it was strictly forbidden to attack without permission in Heaven Ascension City and the consequences were severe, there would occasionally be people who would go crazy and cause destruction without regard for anything else. Even if they were killed in the end, there would often be people who were unlucky enough to be implicated. They would either be injured or killed in serious cases.

As Xiahou Zhen's body emanated killing intent that was as cold as hell, guards dressed in dark-golden armor quickly appeared. Their sharp gazes landed on Xiahou Zhen with a warning look in their eyes.

Xiahou Zhen instantly snapped to his senses. This was Heaven Ascension City. If he dared to attack, he would be punished even if he was the son of the Sacred Martial Palace's Palace Lord, much less a core disciple of the Sacred Martial Palace.

At the same time, someone was staring at Xiahou Zhen with interest by the window of a restaurant to the side. He then looked at Chen Zong with a glint in his eyes and a smile on his lips.

"Chen Zong, you are here for the Heaven Ascension Pagoda, right? You won't have a chance because you will soon die on the Life-And-Death Arena."

(This chapter is not finished. Please turn the page.)

Xiahou Zhen converged his killing intent, but the killing intent in his eyes remained sharp and sharp. His tone was sinister.

With that said, Xiahou Zhen turned and left. He was worried that he would lose control and attack.

Back when he attempted to kill Chen Zong in Hundred Battles City, he never expected that Chen Zong's combat strength would not be weak. He was unable to kill Chen Zong immediately, causing the experts of Hundred Battles City to rush over to stop him. They even banished him from Hundred Battles City. It made Xiahou Zhen feel extremely humiliated.

Back then, he was about to send a message to the Sacred Martial Palace to gather people to hide outside and kill Chen Zong when he received the news first. He was to rush to Heaven Ascension City as soon as possible.

Left with no choice, Xiahou Zhen could only put aside the matter of Chen Zong and rush to Heaven Ascension City. Once he was done with Heaven Ascension City, he would eliminate Chen Zong.

He never expected that Chen Zong would come to Heaven Ascension City as well. He could finish him off in one fell swoop.

One could not attack without permission in Heaven Ascension City, but it did not mean that one could not attack. It was normal for warriors to have grudges between them. It was impossible for them to not resolve their grudges, right?

Therefore, Heaven Ascension City had set up an Life-And-Death Arena. It was meant for warriors with grudges to resolve their grudges.

However, to enter the Life-And-Death Arena, one had to first apply to Heaven Ascension City's City Logistics Division and pay the corresponding fee. Then, the City Logistics Division would make the arrangements.

"Life-And-Death Arena?" A glint flashed in Chen Zong's eyes. "Whatever, I'll kill you on the Life-And-Death Arena."

Xiahou Zhen wanted to kill Chen Zong, but how could Chen Zong not want to kill Xiahou Zhen?

"Investigate who Xiahou Zhen was facing off against." The person sitting by the window in the restaurant said slowly. His voice was not loud.

"Yes, Senior Brother." The person standing behind him immediately bowed and quickly left.

After Xiahou Zhen left, he went straight to the City Logistics Division to apply for a life-and-death battle. As for Chen Zong, he found a restaurant to stay in.

In a small hall in the Sacred Martial Palace's stronghold.

"Senior Brother, I've already investigated. That person's name is Chen Zong. He came from Hundred Battles City and not long ago, he obtained a hundred-win streak in Hundred Battles City."

"Oh, a hundred-win streak. Not bad indeed." The man sitting in the seat of honor smiled faintly. He was none other than the person sitting by the window in the restaurant. He tapped his fingers on the back of the dark brown chair, producing a rhythmic sound. "What grudge does he have with Xiahou Zhen?"

"Not long ago, Xiahou Zhen brought Lin Ziqi to Hundred Battles City. He had a conflict with Chen Zong and Lin Ziqi wanted to cripple Chen Zong in the Hundred Battles Arena. However, he ended up being crippled by Chen Zong. Xiahou Zhen then attempted to kill Chen Zong but was banished from Hundred Battles City," explained the person with a smile. His expression had a hint of mockery.

"Oh, he was banished by Hundred Battles City." The man in the seat of honor was first taken aback before he laughed incessantly.

"Xiahou Zhen is such a prideful person. He must be mad with anger after being banished by Hundred Battles City." The man could not stop laughing.

This person was also a core disciple of the Sacred Palace. However, he had a competitive relationship with Xiahou Zhen. They were at odds with each other.

In short, the Sacred Palace was a high-grade Sect. It was powerful and had a deep heritage. However, the Heavenly Profound Realm expert had not appeared in a hundred years. As for the three Earthly Spirit Realm experts, they took turns guarding the Sect. The other two were either out adventuring or cultivating in seclusion. However, the Earthly Spirit Realm experts guarding the Sect would not interfere with the affairs of the Sect on a typical day.

The large Sect was not a monolithic entity. There was always a struggle for power.

The Sacred Palace could be divided into three factions. The Sect Master's faction and the Elders' faction. Xiahou Zhen belonged to the Second Elder's faction while the man belonged to the Grand Elder's faction.

"Investigate where that Chen Zong is staying. Bring my name card and let him work for me," said the man.

"Yes, Senior Brother," the young man below hurriedly replied.



There was a knock on the door. Chen Zong was slightly surprised.

"Who is it?"

"But Chen Zong, please open the door. I have an urgent matter." An unfamiliar voice sounded from outside the door. It sounded rather amiable.

Chen Zong opened the door with a wave of his hand. He saw a white-robed youth standing outside the door. He was looking at him with a smile.

"I'm a core disciple of the Sacred Palace, Wang Yunyu." When the youth introduced himself, Chen Zong's expression changed slightly. However, the youth smiled again and said, "Don't misunderstand. I'm not on the same side as Xiahou Zhen."

"I'm here on behalf of my senior brother, Xuan Ziye. Senior Brother Xuan has heard of your outstanding talent and combat strength. He admires you greatly and would like to invite you to a grand occasion," said Wang Yunyu with a smile.

It sounded rather elegant, but there was only one meaning behind it. He was trying to recruit Chen Zong. He wanted Chen Zong to work for Xuan Ziye.

"I'm used to my freedom," rejected Chen Zong.

"Please consider it. I'll take my leave first." Despite being rejected, Wang Yunyu's expression did not change at all. He continued speaking with a smile. After cupping his hands, he walked out of the room. Finally, he paused and turned back to look at Chen Zong. "By the way, Your Excellency, Xiahou Zhen has already submitted an application for the Life-And-Death Arena to the City Logistics Division. Someone from the City Logistics Division will inform you soon. If you are not confident, you can seek help from Senior Brother Xuan."

With that said, Wang Yunyu turned and left.

Chen Zong waved his hand and closed the door. He did not take it to heart and continued his cultivation.

Not long later, there was another knock on the door.

"Who is it?" Having his cultivation interrupted once again, Chen Zong's tone was somewhat displeased. It was sharp like an unsheathed sword.

"I'm a guard from the City Logistics Division." A deep voice sounded from outside the door.

"City Logistics Division." Chen Zong's eyes focused. He waved his hand and opened the door. A tall figure dressed in armor stood outside the door. His head was level with the top of the door.

He took a step forward and bent his back slightly before entering the room.

"Are you Chen Zong? Did you come from Hundred Battles City? "The tall man asked with a steady gaze.

"I am." Chen Zong had a general idea of the other party's intentions.

"Sacred Martial Palace's core disciple, Xiahou Zhen, has challenged you to a life-and-death battle. It is scheduled for the Life-And-Death Arena three days from now. Do you accept?" The other party inquired, "If you accept, head to the Life-And-Death Arena three days from now to fight Xiahou Zhen. If you do not accept, leave Heaven Ascension City immediately. You are not allowed to take a single step into Heaven Ascension City for ten years. Otherwise, you will be killed without mercy."

"I accept." Chen Zong did not hesitate at all.

The application for the Life-And-Death Arena required a considerable fee. Similarly, there were restrictions. If one accepted, it was fine. If one did not accept, one would be punished. The punishment was banishment from the city and not being allowed to take a single step into the city for ten years.

This kind of punishment could be considered heavy, but it could also be considered light, depending on the person.

However, Chen Zong's goal was to challenge the Heaven Ascension Pagoda. He naturally did not wish to accept such a punishment. Besides, it was time to deal with Xiahou Zhen to prevent him from being constantly targeted.

"Very good. Since you have chosen to accept, arrive at the Life-And-Death Arena three days from now. If you are late, you will be banished from the city and not allowed to take a single step into the city for the rest of your life." The City Logistics Division's guard said sternly. He turned around and walked out the door.
