Shoosh! Shoosh! Shoosh!
As the crowd in the hall saw this, their bodies flashed and they followed closely behind the king as they dashed into the Space Tunnel.
The Space Tunnel was extremely large and it was a few dozen feet wide.
Su Mo and Gu Tian Yi entered the Space Tunnel at the same time.
In less than two breaths of time, the ten thousand people in the hall had all entered the Space Tunnel.
Inside the Space Tunnel was the Empty World, which was an empty space.
Shoosh shoosh shoosh!!
The crowd's bodies appeared in the Empty World as they stared at the space in front of them.
In front of them, more than ten thousand miles away, there were five huge dragon pillars.
Each of these dragon pillars was a thousand miles long and nearly a hundred miles in diameter. They were pure gold in color, and huge divine dragons were carved on them. They looked like divine pillars that were entwined by divine dragons.
The five Divine Pillars were a few thousand miles apart from each other and they stood in the empty space, as though they were sacred objects that had existed since time immemorial.
Although they had never seen these Dragon Pillars before, they had heard of them a long time ago.
These were the five Dragon Pillars that would determine the top five spots.
The king's tall body stood in front of the crowd as he stared at the five Dragon Pillars with a stern gaze. In a loud voice, he said, "The rules do not change. You are not allowed to gang up on each other. Whoever can occupy a Dragon Pillar will be the winner!"
Shoosh! Shoosh! Shoosh!
The moment the king's words fell, three sharp air-piercing sounds rang through the air as three figures flew out, each flying to the top of a Dragon Pillar.
At the top of each Dragon Rising Pillar was a platform with a circumference of a hundred miles.
These three people were none other than the First Prince, Second Princess, and Third Prince.
As the sons of the king, the three of them were strong and they were the first to occupy a Dragon Pillar.
The king lightly smiled. He had not seen the strength of these children in a long time and he wanted to see them today.
"Alright, the fight for the spots will begin!" The king announced.
The crowd did not fight over the Dragon Pillars. Instead, they stood there motionlessly, their faces solemn.
Only by occupying a Dragon Pillar would one be able to obtain a spot. However, being the first to occupy a Dragon Pillar did not mean that one would be able to obtain a spot.
On the contrary, being the first to occupy a Dragon Pillar would mean that one would have to face countless challenges and would be easily defeated.
As for the First Prince, Second Princess, and Third Prince, they were confident of their strength and were naturally unafraid.
Su Mo wasn't in a hurry to act as he understood this logic. It was better to act later than later. As long as he could occupy a Dragon Pillar, there was no need for him to act too early.
If he made his move too early, he would definitely face endless challenges. Although he wasn't afraid, he couldn't be bothered.
Whoosh!
Finally, someone moved. It was a tall and mighty young man in scarlet armor. His body flashed as he flew towards a Dragon Pillar and landed on top of it.
This person was none other than Xu Feng, the leader of the third platoon of the Red Dragon Camp and a member of the Third Prince's camp.
Seeing that Xu Feng had occupied one of the Dragon Pillars, Zhu Tong's body flashed and he immediately occupied the last Dragon Pillar.
At that point, Zhu Tong's cultivation rank was no longer at the peak of the Rank 8 Martial Honorable Realm. He had already reached the beginning of the Rank 9 Martial Honorable Realm.
In the blink of an eye, all five Dragon Pillars had been occupied. Every single person who occupied a Dragon Pillar was a Rank 9 Martial Honorable.
The five experts stood on the tall Dragon Pillars and each of them released a strong aura that shook the heavens. As their eyes swept across the crowd, they exuded a domineering aura.
This was especially so for the First Prince, Gu Cangtian. He was domineering and his aura filled the skies.
As the crowd sized up the five experts, many of them bitterly laughed in their hearts. Although they were here to fight for the spots, they were just here to go through the motions.
Against these five experts, they couldn't muster up any fighting spirit.
However, since they were here, they couldn't just watch until the end. Even if they weren't able to obtain a spot, they had to try their best.
Shoosh!
A black-shirted young man's body flashed and he flew towards the Dragon Pillar that Zhu Tong was on. In an instant, he landed on the top of the Dragon Pillar.
"Zhu Tong, I challenge you!"
The black-shirted young man stared at Zhu Tong with a serious face. Of the five people occupying the Dragon Pillars, the First Prince, Second Princess, and Third Prince were too strong and he couldn't challenge them. As such, he could only challenge Zhu Tong or Xu Feng.
He chose Zhu Tong, who had just entered the Rank 9 Martial Honorable Realm not long ago.
"You overestimate yourself!" Zhu Tong almost laughed out loud when he saw the other party's cultivation rank. A peak Rank 7 Martial Honorable actually dared to challenge him.
With that, Zhu Tong instantly attacked. He didn't use his long spear and instead, he punched out.
This punch was light and it wasn't flashy at all. However, its power was unparalleled.
The fiery red Fist Radiance was like a red pillar of light that shot out at a blinding speed. It carried with it the fire-based energy as it headed straight for the black-shirted young man.
"Not good!" The black-shirted young man instantly turned pale with fright when he saw the attack. He felt that the attack was extremely dangerous.
In the blink of an eye, the young man immediately drew out his sword to defend against the attack.
However, the result couldn't be changed. The Rank 7 Martial Honorable Realm black-shirted young man was thrown out of the Dragon Pillar by Zhu Tong and he flew a few kilometers away. Fresh blood spurted out of his mouth and he was severely injured.
"He can't even withstand a single blow!" Zhu Tong shook his head. He only needed to use 20% of his strength to easily defeat such an opponent.
There were many people participating in the fight for the spots and they weren't intimidated by Zhu Tong's strength. In the next few days, challenges continued to appear.
One by one, experts stepped onto the Dragon Pillar to challenge Zhu Tong and Xu Feng.
There were Rank 7 Martial Honorables and Rank 8 Martial Honorables who challenged Zhu Tong and Xu Feng. However, all of them were easily defeated.
Zhu Tong didn't even use his best spear skills and he basically defeated his opponents with a single punch.
Xu Feng wasn't any weaker either. He didn't even use the Sacred Weapon that the Third Prince had lent him. With just his palm skills, he easily defeated all the challengers.
Zhu Tong and Xu Feng were both from the Third Prince's camp. The two of them displayed their strength and it made the Third Prince proud.
The Third Prince nodded his head inwardly. The two of them were strong and they weren't much weaker than him.
However, he didn't celebrate too early. After all, there were still a few Rank 9 Martial Honorables who hadn't fought yet. For example, the first platoon leader of the Red Dragon Camp, Hua Xun, the second platoon leader, Ren Tianya, as well as a few other Rank 9 Martial Honorables.
"It's just a moment of glory!" The First Prince wore a disdainful look on his face. Hua Xun was his man and his strength wasn't any weaker than Zhu Tong and Xu Feng's. It wasn't certain who would have the last laugh!
The king stood in the air with his hands behind his back as he quietly watched the battles.
The other experts of the older generation gathered behind the Saint Emperor, carefully observing the battle in silence.
After 20 people were defeated, the rest of the people turned to look at the First Prince, the Second Princess and the Third Prince.
Zhu Tong and Xu Feng were too strong and the crowd started to look for an opening in the First Prince and the Second Princess.
A burly young man flew onto the Dragon Pillar that the Third Prince was on.
"Your Highness, I'm sorry!" The burly young man bowed to the Third Prince.
"Not bad. If you can block one blow from me, you win!" The First Prince, Gu Yuanji, looked at the burly young man and nodded his head.
"Go ahead!" The burly young man sucked in a deep breath. His cultivation rank was at the peak of the Rank 8 Martial Honorable Realm and his strength was much stronger than others of the same rank. He didn't believe that he wouldn't be able to block one blow from the Third Prince.
"Lose!" The Third Prince lightly yelled as he lifted his palm and pointed out with his finger.
Shoosh!
In an instant, a piercing sound tore through the air and a sharp Sword Qi instantly pierced through the air. It was like a thousand-foot long sword that instantly pierced through the sky. It carried with it boundless Sword Force as it flew towards the burly young man.
Although this sword wasn't very big, its attack power was extremely condensed. The sword might was terrifying, and its edge was peerless. It was vast and mighty.
The speed of the Sword Qi was fast and in an instant, it arrived in front of the burly young man.
"What?" The burly young man's face turned pale with fright. He didn't have time to block the attack and he could only raise his weapon to block it.
Boom!
A loud explosion shook the entire Empty World and the burly young man flew backwards. Fresh blood spurted out from his body and his physical body was almost sliced into two.
The crowd was shocked. The Third Prince was indeed the Third Prince, his strength wasn't just for show. Although he was only a Rank 9 Martial Honorable, his combat strength was strong.
The Third Prince's face was calm. In actual fact, he had already tried his best to control his strength. Otherwise, he would have been able to kill the burly young man in one blow.
"They are indeed not weak!" Su Mo thought to himself. He had been observing the battle and he knew that Zhu Tong, Xu Feng and the Third Prince were all strong.
Furthermore, he knew that the few of them hadn't used their full strength and he had to observe them carefully to see how strong they were.
