Of course, this was normal!
Ximen Chenshi was originally a prodigy ranked below The Second Dream, so she was the center of attention. However, after Lin Ling's rise, her limelight faded away. Most importantly, Ximen Chenshi accepted her loss to The Second Dream, but she couldn't accept losing to Lin Ling. After all, Lin Ling was only at the mid-stage of the Emperor Spirit realm.
However, Lin Ling did not take the other party's disdain to heart. After all, the test had only just begun. The real main battle was still at the back!
"You trash, you're finally here? You're so slow!"
Retracting his thoughts, Lin Ling looked at the other sky-prides. His gaze landed on Zhong Lingshan. This person had harmed him before. He must be killed!
"Trash!"
The Heaven's Favorites' bodies began to shake in anger. However, there was nothing they could say. All they could do was swallow their anger.
"Lin Ling, this is only a speed test. You've won and placed me in second place. Not bad, you didn't disappoint me!"
Second Dream stood amongst the crowd of Chosen like a crane in a flock of chickens. Her black cloak fluttered in the wind as she spoke in a calm voice. She didn't seem to be angered by her loss to Lin Ling!
Many people secretly admired him for his open-mindedness. After all, the glory of the speed test should have belonged to The Second Dream.
"I'm sorry, but you're third. Senior Sister Hong 'er is second!"
However, just as The Second Dream's voice fell, Lin Ling's indifferent voice also drifted out, causing The Second Dream's beautiful eyes to widen. That's right, she wasn't second, but third. The second person was Senior Sister Hong 'er, who was walking together with Lin Ling.
"You!"
The Second Dream was stunned for a moment, and her pretty face became extremely awkward. She no longer had the generous demeanor she had before, and it was clear that she was a little angry from embarrassment.
"Haha!"
Looking at the Heaven's Favorite, Lin Ling laughed out loud. His voice shook the clouds, making all the Heaven's Favorites seethe with anger. However, there was nothing they could do.
On the other hand, the hearts of the spectators surged. Lin Ling, this eccentric, was as crazy as ever!
Time passed quietly, and the speed test ended. Only seventy or so people had passed. Next was the defense test. The defense test was much simpler. After all, the following geniuses were all extremely powerful existences. Therefore, only three people were eliminated in the defense test!
One of the geniuses with a tall and sturdy physique who looked like a Vajra descended from the heavens took first place. His name was Song Yang, and his King Physique was a bell. He was extremely mysterious and rarely had any opponents in the late stage of the Emperor Spirit Realm!
Next up was the third test — Purgatory Battlefield!
Countless people were looking forward to it. The previous assessment had been a basic assessment, there hadn't been any battles that relied on strength. But, the following Purgatory Battlefield would be a battlefield of blood and slaughter!
Geniuses were not flowers in a greenhouse. They had to experience life and death battles. Only geniuses who could experience life and death battles could become dragons among men and be reborn!
"In the Purgatory Battlefield, the top 20 prodigies will enter the final round. The losers will be eliminated!"
An ancient voice rang out, causing the seventy plus geniuses to narrow their eyes in anticipation.
"There are countless Demonic Beasts in the Purgatory Battlefield. Your test will be to see who can kill the most Demonic Beasts. Go in!"
After the final announcement, a huge black hole appeared in front of the Misty Cloud. An ancient bloody aura filled the air. It was violent, crazy, and terrifying!
"Host, I forfeit!"
Three geniuses hesitated for a long time before finally giving up. Although this battle was very important and concerned their future martial path, their lives were also very important.
"Alright, the three of you are ranked below the seventy plus!" Old Dao's voice rang out. Disdainful voices rang out from the spectators. Geniuses became stronger the more they fought. How could they give up just because of some small setbacks? Those people didn't have the qualifications to become geniuses.
"Trash!"
The remaining sky-prides snarled coldly and then strode into the black hole. Lin Ling and Hong 'er also stepped into the black hole!
Rumble rumble rumble!
On the other side of the void, dark clouds billowed in the sky. The earth was blood red, as if one had come to a burning hell. A bloody infernal energy filled the air, giving off an extremely oppressive feeling.
Lin Ling's body soon appeared. His feet touched the ground, his eyes faintly looking in front of him.
There was no one around. It seemed that after entering the void channel, everyone had been randomly separated. In front of him, the infernal energy was extremely rich, and there were even occasional roars of Demonic Beasts that soared into the sky.
"The Seven Profound Martial House's first generation Martial House Master is truly fierce. He actually hid such a secret land, and even raised Demonic Beasts in this secret land!"
Lin Ling secretly admired. He took out the Tyrannical Song Sword and slowly walked forwards. Above his head, a multi-colored jade card appeared. It recorded the Demonic Beasts that Lin Ling had killed.
The Purgatory Battlefield was to see who had killed the most Demonic Beasts!
And on that multi-colored jade card, there were over 15,000 Demonic Beasts recorded. This meant that Lin Ling's score was currently the highest.
"Sure enough, in the attack test, I was first, so I was rewarded with 5000 Demonic Beasts. But in the speed test, I was first, so I was rewarded with 10,000!"
Lin Ling thought for a moment and had a guess in his heart. This was the advantage of having the best score in the previous tests!
Rumble rumble rumble!
Just as he walked forwards, the mountain in front of him began to move. An ancient toad the size of a mountain appeared, its cold eyes staring at Lin Ling. It was obvious that after so many years, this was the first time that a human had entered the Purgatory Battlefield. This caused it to be restless!
"Looking at its aura, it's at the late Emperor Spirit realm!"
Lin Ling's expression was calm. He stepped forwards, shooting towards the ancient toad. He raised the Tyrannical Song Sword in his hand and slashed down!
10 million jins of physical strength and 10 million jins of Tyrannical Song Sword strength. An ordinary late Emperor Spirit realm martial artist simply wouldn't be able to block this!
Kacha!
The sword fell, and the huge ancient toad was split into two. Blood splattered everywhere, and it was as if a small mountain had crashed down. Lin Ling stood there calmly. His Tyrant Song Sword emitted a blood-red light, and it actually absorbed the blood and flesh, turning into endless light that disappeared into Lin Ling's body!
This was the third hidden secret of the Tyrannical Song Sword!
The first was a cultivation support tool that could weigh 10 million jins at any time. The second was to allow the sword intent to appear on one's movement speed. Sword steps! The third was to absorb the enemy's spiritual energy and life essence.
"Of the 10,000 small worlds in my body, another three have awakened!"
Lin Ling's lips curled up slightly. He was grateful to Aunt Mo. The Tyrannical Song Sword was practically tailor-made for Lin Ling!
After that, Lin Ling continued forward, constantly killing Demonic Beasts!
At the same time, in the Purgatory Battlefield, everyone was doing their best to kill Demonic Beasts. After all, this wasn't the previous test where passing was enough. They had to rush into the top 20. Therefore, in order to obtain Demonic Beasts faster, many geniuses attacked each other. This was because killing each other would also give them Demonic Beasts!
