In the county city of Jiangning county in Yangzhou, as if the annual festival had just passed, the common people in the city gathered in groups of two or three. They were either playing or chatting in small teahouses on the street.
"How could this be fake? I just heard it in the restaurant. The Sovereign of the Heavenly God Palace, Pei San, directly sent a letter of challenge to the Emperor Yu's Hall, the Ying Family, and the Xing Yi Sect of Yangzhou! Who are those two called? As for Sovereign Teng, there are a total of three people. Pei San wants to challenge them one by one. " A young master from a rich family with acne on his face was walking leisurely while chatting with the rich young masters beside him.
"Third Brother is right. I've heard about it too."
Another fair-skinned handsome young man said, "Pei San, the Sovereign of the Heavenly God Palace, is one of the six supreme sects in the Land of the Nine Prefectures. The Mani Temple is powerful enough to annihilate the entire Mani Temple. Pei San sent a letter of challenge to Huang Tianqin of Emperor Yu's Hall, Qin Shiqi of the Ying Family, and Teng Qingshan of the Xing Yi Sect. They were on the sixth of the twelfth lunar month this winter, the twelfth of the twelfth lunar month two years later, and the eighteenth of the twelfth lunar month five years later. The locations are the Thousand-island Lake in Yuzhou, the Green Dragon Hill in the Qinling Mountains in Yongzhou, and the White Horse Lake in Jiangning, Yangzhou. "
"Yes, yes, yes, this is it." The slightly plump rich young master with pimples on his face said hastily, "Big Brother is right. It is that Huang, Qin Shiqi, and our Sovereign Teng. Tsk, tsk. This Pei San is quite daring. He actually dared to challenge our Sovereign Teng. He is courting death. "
"Third Brother, you're wrong. Pei San is the Sovereign of the Heavenly God Palace … "As soon as the yellow-clothed rich young master spoke, the pimple-faced rich young master glared at him and roared," Sixth Brother, that is our Sovereign Teng! What kind of person is our Sovereign Teng? In the Land of the Nine Prefectures, who could be a match for Sovereign Teng? Just wait and see. When my Internal Martial Art produces inner strength, I will definitely join the Xing Yi Sect. I want to meet Sovereign Teng even in my dreams. "
"Third Bro drank too much today." The handsome youth couldn't help but smile.
As these good-for-nothings chatted and laughed along the way, all kinds of discussions could be heard in the teahouses, restaurants, and even weapon shops.
"It seems like in Pei San's eyes, these three are the only people in the Land of the Nine Prefectures who are worth challenging."
Even on the street, one could hear the chatter on the side.
"Of course! Now, I think these four are the most powerful in the Land of the Nine Prefectures. Pei San from Qingzhou, Qin Shiqi from Yongzhou, Huang Tianqin from Yuzhou, and Teng Qingshan from Yangzhou. "
…
There was a lot of discussion.
No one knew where the news of the upcoming battle between the four powerhouses had come from. It felt like within a day, everyone in the Land of the Nine Prefectures was talking about it. Even the names of the four people, the location and time of the upcoming battle, were clearly known.
*****
In the East Flower Garden of the Xing Yi Sect, Teng Qingshan and his family were eating together.
"Who spread this news?" Honglin was so angry that her face turned red. "Father, it seems like the whole world knows about this now."
"Sister, sit down," Hongwu said with a smile. "Why are you angry? Everyone can see it. The Heavenly God Palace must have spread this news secretly. Millions of people in the Land of the Nine Prefectures know that the three most powerful battles are about to take place in the Land of the Nine Prefectures. "
"Yes."
Teng Qingshan smiled and nodded. "After all, the Xing Yi Sect, Emperor Yu's Hall, and the Ying Family only know that we are being invited. We don't know about the other two sects. That's why they spread the news in such detail. Only the Heavenly God Palace knew about it. I only found out about the location of the other two from this news. "
"On the sixth of December this year, at the Thousand-island Lake in Yuzhou."
"Two years later, on the twelfth of December, at the Green Dragon Hill in the Qinling Mountain Range in Yongzhou."
"Five years later, at the White Horse Lake in Yi City in Yangzhou."
"The people that Pei San chose are the Insightful Emptiness Realm Experts in the Land of the Nine Prefectures. In the Land of the Nine Prefectures, we are probably the only four Insightful Emptiness Realm Experts. "Teng Qingshan knew a lot about the forces in the Land of the Nine Prefectures.
After all, the information network of the Xing Yi Sect was already very powerful.
Teng Qingshan even found out that the two brothers, Pei San and Pei Hao, were from the Wan Xiang Sect! The Pei Clan was originally a clan in the Wan Xiang Sect.
However, because of Pei San, the Pei Clan split from the Wan Xiang Sect.
After all, the Wan Xiang Sect did not fight for hegemony.
Based on this, Teng Qingshan finally understood why Pei San could rise so mysteriously and quietly. It turned out that the Wan Xiang Sect was helping him secretly. Although the Wan Xiang Sect did not fight for hegemony, it still helped Pei San.
"Father, who is the strongest among the four of you?" Honglin couldn't help but ask.
"Pei San should be the strongest among the four of us." Teng Qingshan thought for a while and said, "However, I am not sure about Qin Shiqi's strength. I think he is not much weaker than Pei San. I should be ranked third among the four. Huang Tianqin is the weakest among the four. "
Hongwu hastily said, "Father, how about the duel between you and Pei San …"
"Don't worry. We still have six years." Teng Qingshan smiled and said, "Pei San has some tricks up his sleeves. He is worried that we will avoid the duel. Therefore, he spread the news to the entire Land of the Nine Prefectures. In this way, the three of us will not only represent ourselves. We will also represent our respective sects. "
"If I avoid the duel, the reputation of the Xing Yi Sect will be tarnished. The reputation of Yangzhou will be suppressed. "
"The other two have to consider this as well." Teng Qingshan knew clearly that Teng Qingshan was using the power of millions of people to force them to accept the duel.
Li Jun worriedly said softly, "Qingshan, in this duel, you and Pei San …"
"I can guess what Pei San is thinking." Teng Qingshan smiled and said, "During the battle at the Mani Temple, Pei San seemed to be a little crazy. I have a feeling that Pei San and the Mani Temple have a deep relationship. After the destruction of the Mani Temple, Pei San's state of mind might have changed. Half a year after the destruction of the Mani Temple, Pei San must have figured something out. That is why he decided to challenge the three of us. "
"The order of the duels is also mysterious." Teng Qingshan smiled.
Honglin, who was standing at the side, guessed, "Order? Father, according to you, Huang Tianqin is the weakest among the four of us. Why is he ranked first? Father, you are the last one? "
"The order of the duels is not based on strength. It is based on Pei San's expectations. "Teng Qingshan said," In Pei San's mind, Huang Tianqin has the lowest expectations. Pei San had the lowest expectations for Huang Tianqin. Therefore, he challenged me to a duel first to intimidate Qin Shiqi and me. As for Qin Shiqi, he has higher expectations. As for me, he probably thinks that I have improved very quickly. Therefore, he gave me six years. By then, I will be able to fight against him. I want him to gain enlightenment during the duel and become an Omnipotent Expert. "
Honglin, Hongwu, and Lei Xiaoru, who had been listening quietly, nodded in understanding.
In Lei Xiaoru's eyes, what Teng Qingshan said was very attractive.
Because …
These four people were the four most powerful people in the Land of the Nine Prefectures.
…
Although Teng Qingshan felt pressured by Pei San, he was motivated to fight.
In both his previous and current lives, he had never been afraid of a duel.
This made him even more obsessed with the Three Postures. He wanted to transform the Power of the Five Elemental World into the Power of the Living World.
…
A month had passed since the news of the duel between the four Omnipotent Experts in the Land of the Nine Prefectures.
"Father, father, look." Honglin ran over quickly with a secret manual in her hand.
Teng Qingshan turned around and saw the book in Honglin's hand. The title of the book was [Duel of the Strongest].
"Father, this is a book published by the Wan Xiang Sect today. You and the other three people are written in it. Take a look. " Honglin handed the book to Teng Qingshan excitedly. Teng Qingshan knew that the book sold by the Wan Xiang Sect appeared on the counter on the same day in the Land of the Nine Prefectures.
Before this, even the Xing Yi Sect didn't know that the Wan Xiang Sect was going to publish this book.
"Oh?"
Teng Qingshan took the book and flipped it open.
"Since the creation of the Land of the Nine Prefectures, the level of turmoil and chaos in the Land of the Nine Prefectures can be ranked in the top three in the history of the Land of the Nine Prefectures. Ever since the rise of Teng Qingshan and the Heavenly God Palace, Teng Qingshan created the branch of Internal Martial Arts, which spread throughout the Land of the Nine Prefectures. Currently, 49 out of the 72 people in the 《Earthly Ranking》 are Internal Martial Arts cultivators. The Heavenly God Palace displayed its terrifying strength. Qingzhou, Youzhou, and the Northern Great Prairie were all occupied by them. They even sent a million soldiers through the desert, through the Western Region, and took the Golden Road to the Mani Temple. They destroyed the Mani Temple, which used to be the most powerful sect in the Land of the Nine Prefectures. "
"Now, the Sovereign of the Heavenly God Palace, the mysterious and powerful Pei San, invited the three most powerful cultivators of the past to have a decisive battle."
"The Wan Xiang Sect compiled the detailed information about the four powerful cultivators in the past hundreds of years. That is how the book, 《Battle of the Strongest》, was created."
Teng Qingshan continued to read with interest.
This book recorded the life experiences of Huang Tianqin, Qin Shiqi, Pei San, and himself. Teng Qingshan had almost forgotten many of these events. However, the Wan Xiang Sect recorded them clearly.
A few hundred years ago, Huang Tianqin and Qin Shiqi were very famous.
Although Pei San was mysterious, Teng Qingshan was amazed by the 'major events' that were revealed by the Wan Xiang Sect.
…
When Teng Qingshan read the book, the book, 《Battle of the Strongest》, spread rapidly throughout the Land of the Nine Prefectures. A large number of cultivators and even wealthy people were talking about it before and after meals. Everyone had a better understanding of these four experts, and they also knew how powerful they were.
"Sovereign Pei will definitely win. How could he dare to challenge three powerful cultivators in a row if he is not powerful enough?"
"I think Qin Shiqi will win. Qin Shiqi has been cultivating for almost four hundred years. However, he will win every battle! Look at the book. When he was seventeen years old, he went out of the Great Wall with a sword … "
"Teng Qingshan … Teng Qingshan will definitely win. Teng Qingshan was able to create the branch of Internal Martial Art, which is comparable to the branch of the Buddhist Sect and the Daoist Sect. Who can compete with the other three? "
"In another hundred years, Teng Qingshan will definitely win. However, Teng Qingshan is at a disadvantage because of his age. "
…
For a time, people in the Land of the Nine Prefectures were talking about the four powerful cultivators. Countless people admired Pei San, Huang Tianqin, Qin Shiqi, and Teng Qingshan. Countless cultivators in the Land of the Nine Prefectures were looking forward to the grand event — the third Battle of the Strongest!
While they were looking forward to it …
While they were looking forward to it …
While they were arguing …
The people of the Land of the Nine Prefectures had been waiting for the sixth day of the twelfth lunar month.
On this day, the first battle of the three Battle of the Strongest — Huang Tianqin and Pei San!
