Yi Yun and company waited for about fifteen minutes. At this moment, a door opened and more than ten people walked out.
The person leading them was a thin youth. This youth was dressed in a very simple and loose training outfit. He carried a saber on his back.
The thin youth's every step seemed to be measured with a ruler. It was exactly four feet, no more, no less.
This thin youth gave people the feeling that he was an unsheathed saber, with a threatening edge.
The moment the thin youth appeared, everyone's eyes were focused on him.
Yi Yun felt his pupils constrict and his eyebrows turn cold. The youth gave off a strong sense of oppression.
Not far away, Zhou Kui was also looking at the youth with shock.
This thin youth's aura was even stronger than Yang Qian's!
Yang Qian stood up and the two looked at each other. Sparks seemed to burst out from their eyes.
"You broke through?" Yang Qian looked at the thin youth and his pupils constricted to the size of a needle tip.
"I was lucky to break through and obtained a glory point. I can do some things now …" The thin youth with the saber on his back said lightly.
"A glory point … Heh! What a good harvest. Congratulations! " Yang Qian's eyebrows twitched as his eyes flashed. Although he was congratulating, anyone could tell that the two of them were in conflict.
Yang Qian and the thin youth were competitors!
This was not strange. In the Tai Ah Divine City, the young elites were in a competitive relationship.
Just like Yi Yun, he would also compete with many people. There were many things that others could not obtain once you took it.
As such, how could their relationships be harmonious?
The thin youth finally brushed shoulders with Yang Qian. As he was about to leave, he turned around and glanced at Yang Qian, saying, "I'll be waiting for you to battle!"
This sentence made many of the Tai Ah Divine City's rookies look at each other. Who was this thin youth? He was so arrogant to be waiting for Yang Qian to battle?
From Yang Qian's reaction, it was clear that he agreed with this sentence. This also meant that the thin youth's strength was very likely stronger than Yang Qian's!
Heavens, Yang Qian was already so powerful. A fifteen year old viscount. And there was still someone suppressing him!
Many people were stunned for a long time. They swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "There really are as many experts as there are clouds …"
After the young man left, someone couldn't help but ask, "Who was that skinny swordsman? What's his cultivation? "
The leader, Baldy Qin, said, "That person's name is Yao Dao. This is his nickname and also his name. He has been in the Tai Ah Divine City for three years. He is fifteen this year."
"He and Yang Qian were the two most outstanding people from three years ago, and they are each other's greatest competitors. But Devil Blade has been suppressing Yang Qian! "
"As for his cultivation level, he is the same as Yang Qian. They are both above the peak of Purple Blood — the early stages of the Yuan foundation realm!"
Yuan foundation realm!
Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.
"Yuan" meant the beginning, "Yuan" meant the first year, "Marshal" was the highest commander of the army, and "Zhuangyuan" was the first in the imperial examinations.
Yuan Foundation was the most basic and original foundation of a martial artist.
After a warrior reached the peak of the Purple Blood realm, their body's blood essence would be nourished and gathered together. Quantitative change led to qualitative change. Qi and blood condensed into a spring, and the spring solidified into a solid foundation!
This was the Yuan Foundation!
If Purple Blood was the beginning of martial arts. Then the Yuan Foundation was the first step a warrior took on the road to heaven.
A Yuan foundation realm warrior had quite a high status in the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom.
Besides, Devil Blade and Yang Qian were only fifteen years old!
So they had already stepped into the Yuan foundation realm!
Many of the rookies present were momentarily speechless. They were all in the Purple Blood realm, but others were already in the Yuan foundation realm. Yang Qian was already amazing, but in fact, Yang Qian was still being suppressed by Devil Blade.
No matter how strong you are, there will always be someone stronger!
"You still have a long way to go. They have already been in the Tai Ah Divine City for three years. You have just arrived, so what's the rush!?" The bald man said when he noticed the rookies were feeling down.
"Alright, it's our turn to enter."
As the bald man said that, he led the crowd into the hall.
Inside the hall, it was dim. The most eye-catching thing were the three sculptures in the middle of the hall.
Every statue was carved in the shape of a stalwart man.
They were the three most famous Divine Emperors in the history of the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom.
The one in the middle was the founding Divine Emperor. The Divine Emperors on the two sides were people who had once opened up new territories. They were wise rulers with outstanding literary and martial arts skills.
These three wise rulers had left their names in history and were revered by the people.
But at this moment, Yi Yun's attention was not on the three Divine wilderness sculptures.
He looked in front of the Divine Emperor sculptures. There, Yi Yun saw three metal tablets. Each tablet was engraved with names.
These were three rolls of honor!
"These are the Heaven, Earth and Man rolls of honor!" The bald man said.
Every roll of honor had the top ten people at the top. The font of their names was much larger. It was a foot square and it was very eye-catching!
Yi Yun noticed that the top of the Heaven and Earth rolls of honor had the same name, Qin Haotian.
As for the top of the Man roll of honor, it was someone else. Her name was Luo Huo 'er.
"Oh? Luo Huo 'er? It's a girl? "
Yi Yun quickly discovered Devil Blade and Yang Qian's names. Devil Blade appeared on the Heaven and Earth rolls of honor. He was ranked 52.
Yang Qian also appeared on the Heaven and Earth rolls of honor. He was ranked 68.
The two of them were not on the Man roll of honor.
"Do you see this? No matter which roll of honor it is, by the time you leave the Tai Ah Divine City in six years, it would be considered not bad if you can enter the top 1000."
"We know you are very arrogant. To be able to come here proves your excellence. But your excellence is only compared to the people in your region. No one who can come here is worse than you! As for those who have been cultivating in the Tai Ah Divine City for 3-4 years, it is normal for them to be stronger than you! "
"If you do not wait until you leave the Tai Ah Divine City, and can enter the top 1000 of a particular roll of honor within a year, then you will attract the attention of all the large factions in the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom. You will be roped in by them!"
The bald man's words were very provocative.
To enter the top 1000 in a year! To win the attention of the large factions in the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom!
This indeed made people's blood boil!
Zhou Kui pinched his wrist as his eyes lit up. He was filled with fighting spirit. As a man, he should make a name for himself. This was Zhou Kui's dream, and it was also the dream of many of the young elites present.
Yi Yun silently memorized the names on the honor roll. On the Heaven, Earth and Man rolls of honor, the best early-stage Yuan foundation realm people were only ranked in the dozens.
Then what were the cultivation levels of the top ten and top three people?
The mid-stages of the Yuan foundation realm? Or even the late-stages of the Yuan foundation realm?
It was unimaginable!
The Tai Ah Divine City was indeed a place where all the young elites of the Divine Kingdom gathered.
Even the entire Jin Long Wei was nothing compared to the many large family clans, the royal family, the four armies, the Azure Luan Wei, the royal guards and many other factions. Furthermore, the Jin Long Wei branch in the Jing state's Divine Capital was just one of the hundreds of Jin Long Wei branches in the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom.
This honor roll was really challenging!
Yi Yun's blood boiled.
"I wonder what my current ranking is? There's no need to think about the top 1000. It's impossible. I heard that there are 12,000 cultivators in the Tai Ah Divine City. Every year, there will be another 2000 rookies. The rookies' rankings are always towards the back. Song Zijun, who came with me, is definitely above 10,000! "
"Amongst the rookies, my strength is not bad. That Zhou Kui, even without a sneak attack, I can still beat him! But … there are more than 2000 rookies in this batch. Zhou Kui can only be considered above average amongst the 2000 rookies. What rank can I be? Amongst the 2000 rookies, are there many who are stronger than me? "
Yi Yun would not belittle himself, but he knew that his strength was just at the beginning stages of the Purple Blood realm.
In the entire Jing state, Yi Yun might be the cream of the crop.
But there were still the other 107 states, especially the biggest state, the Middle state! The royal capital!
It was not surprising for there to be people stronger than him amongst the rookies!
If the Tai Ah Divine City's elders were included, Yi Yun estimated that his overall ranking would only be in the top 10,000. Would it be 8000? 9000? He might even be above 10,000, but he did not know …
"In a year's time, entering the top 1000 would be considered excellent. It would attract the attention of the large factions in the country. What about me? How far can I go in a year's time? "
Yi Yun was looking forward to it. Thinking about it, he had come out of the vast wilderness. Be it the cultivation techniques or the resources he used, they were on a completely different level compared to the youths from the royal family or the super family clans. Although he had lived two lives, his perceptivity was very high, and he had the heaven-defying Purple Crystal's help. But he had only been practicing martial arts for a short period of time. To be able to enter the top 10,000 amongst the young elites of the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom was already not bad.
"Alright, there's no point in saying so much nonsense. Now, all of you must cultivate well! Do you see these stone doors!? "
The bald man pointed not far away. There were six large stone doors standing in front of them. The stone doors were engraved with primordial desolate beast carvings. They looked ancient and mysterious.
The bald man said, "The six stone doors in front of you are the core of the Wilderness Divine Hall! The Wilderness Divine Hall is a cultivation ground. As rookies, all of you have two hours of free cultivation time. Now, all of you can enter! As for which door, it's up to you to choose! Each door can only allow a maximum of 18 people to enter! "
"Oh? 'Free' cultivation time? "
Yi Yun had a thought. It seemed that he needed to pay dragon scale runes to enter this place in the future.
At this moment, the bald man was already standing by the side with his arms crossed. Beside him was a large hourglass. The bald man had already flipped the hourglass over. The sand flowed silently. The time it took for the hourglass to finish was two hours.
The young elites present were new to the Tai Ah Divine City, so they did not know many of the rules. But they could tell that the cultivation time in the Wilderness Divine Hall was very precious. It was not to be wasted. (To be continued.)
