Peng Zhen
The Palace of Fortune was the place where the geniuses of the Ying Heaven Sect gathered. It was also quite secretive. It was actually an underground palace. Yang Yu led Gu Xuan through an underground tunnel and arrived at the Palace of Fortune.
"Junior Gu, the Palace of Fortune is not only the place where the top geniuses of the sect live, it is also filled with Yuan Qi. Most of the top geniuses choose to live in the Palace of Fortune. You have to be careful. The status of the people here is not low. If you offend any one of them, you will be in big trouble."
After entering the Palace of Fortune, Yang Yu reminded him.
"Okay." Gu Xuan nodded, but he did not take it to heart. Cultivation was originally a matter of competition. Since he wanted to show off, he would naturally offend many people. Moreover, he had received special treatment at the Honorable Realm. Many people would definitely be dissatisfied.
However, if they dared to offend him, they would be trampled under his feet.
Pill Emperor Tang Tang, if he could not even deal with the genius who founded his own sect, then he would be a failure.
The Palace of Fortune was very spacious. There were many places for cultivation, such as the Spirit Gathering Array and the battle stage.
In the center, there were three giant stone pillars, each as thick as a house. There was a door at the bottom of each pillar.
When the two of them entered, there were already seven or eight people cultivating.
"Senior Yang Yu!"
"Greetings, Senior Yang Yu!"
When they saw Yang Yu, they were stunned and greeted him respectfully.
Yang Yu broke through to the King Realm at the age of seventeen. A month ago, he broke through to the Two Star King Realm. He was ranked seventh on the Fortune Board and was respected by many.
The gazes of quite a number of people landed on Gu Xuan. Their eyes contained some doubt.
Gu Xuan's aura was obviously only at the Honorable Realm. Moreover, he seemed to be at the Six or Seven Star Honorable Realm. Could he be qualified to enter the Palace of Fortune?
Yang Yu saw everyone's gaze and smiled. He introduced, "This is Junior Gu Xuan. Although his cultivation level is low, he is still considered a top genius by the sect."
When they heard this, they furrowed their brows. The ranking of a top genius was usually determined by how long it took to break through to the King Realm.
Yang Yu had just reached the King level when he was 17 years old, so he was considered a top genius. Most of them had reached the King level when they were 18 years old, or even later. Due to some special circumstances, they could become top geniuses.
However, they all had one thing in common, and that was that they were all at the King Stage, or the peak of the Venerable Stage, and were considered top geniuses.
What was a top genius? Not only did it depend on one's talent and potential, but one had to at least reach a certain level. The cultivation speed of the Spirit Level and the Profound Level was heaven-defying, but there were many who could not recover after a setback.
Gu Xuan was only at this level, and he was already judged as a top genius by the sect. That also unknowingly pulled down their sense of honor by quite a bit.
"Haha, congratulations, Junior Brother Gu Xuan."
"Congratulations!"
"We are only considered top geniuses when we are at the peak of the Paragon realm. Junior Brother Gu Xuan is a top genius at such a cultivation level. It seems like he has surpassed us by quite a bit."
After a few words of congratulations, they went back to their own business.
No matter how much of a genius Gu Xuan was, without reaching the corresponding strength, he also would not obtain their respect.
Yang Yu's face was a little awkward, and he said to Gu Xuan, "Junior Brother Gu Xuan, they are all geniuses, and it is inevitable that they will be arrogant. Please don't mind them."
"It's nothing." Gu Xuan smiled and shook his head, "I have not shown the corresponding strength, and I have already entered the same level as them. It is inevitable that they will be dissatisfied."
"Oh, so you are saying that you can show the corresponding strength. Do you know what the corresponding strength is?"
At that moment, a sarcastic voice was heard.
The one who spoke was a young man who looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old. He walked out from the cultivation room at the side.
"Junior Brother Peng Zhen!" When the few people saw the young man walk out, their eyes were a little solemn.
Peng Zhen was only sixteen years old, and he had already cultivated to the Eight Stars of the Honorable Stage. Moreover, he had extraordinary talent in martial arts, and he was the genius who was most likely to break Yang Yu's record. Once he broke through to the King Stage, he would definitely receive special treatment from the sect.
What made them even more impressed was that Peng Zhen was not the lowest on the Creation Roll. Instead, he had surpassed many King Stage geniuses, and he was ranked twenty-ninth!
Many King Stage geniuses had to respectfully call Peng Zhen Senior Brother when they saw him.
"Peng Zhen, what do you mean by this?" Yang Yu looked over with a cold expression.
"What do I mean? Of course, I want him to know the rules. I don't think it's appropriate for him to be called a top genius at his cultivation level. "
Peng Zhen looked at Gu Xuan with provocation in his eyes.
Peng Zhen was called a top genius at the Eight Stars of the Honorable Stage, and he had broken the Palace of Fortune's record. He was originally proud of it, but he did not expect someone to enter the Palace of Fortune at a lower cultivation level than him. This made him angry.
Gu Xuan looked at Peng Zhen and said flatly, "If I am not wrong, you are not at the peak of the Honorable Stage. Since you can enter the Palace of Fortune when you are not at the peak of the Honorable Stage, why can't I?"
Gu Xuan's words attracted a wave of disdain. Although that was the case, how could Gu Xuan compare himself to Peng Zhen?
Peng Zhen was only sixteen years old, but his cultivation level was higher than Gu Xuan's. Gu Xuan was already seventeen years old, but his cultivation level was lower than Peng Zhen's.
"You want to compete with me? I really don't know if I should call you stupid or naive. "
Peng Zhen's face was full of sarcasm as he sneered, "You are a Six Stars of the Honorable Stage, right? When I was fifteen years old, I was already a Six Stars of the Honorable Stage. How can you compare yourself to me?"
"Enough!"
Anger surfaced on Yang Yu's face. With a stern shout, he coldly said, "Peng Zhen, junior brother Gu Xuan has never offended you. Don't be so overbearing here. If you really want to fight, I can accompany you."
"You are just relying on your age advantage. If we were the same age, it would be hard to say who would win." Peng Zhen scoffed.
Gu Xuan looked at Peng Zhen and slowly shook his head, "You're called Peng Zhen, right? I really don't know where your arrogance comes from. It's a good thing to cultivate faster than others, but if you think you're invincible because of this, then that's a little too laughable. As for me entering the Palace of Fortune …"
