"This year's dark horse. Looks like we'll have to see if those little fellows from the outer sect can cause any trouble for the four prodigies …"
After hearing the conversation between the Hall Masters, Mo Qian retracted his gaze from Yun Fan and looked at the dozen or so outer sect disciples following closely behind the four prodigies.
This year's dark horse would be born from these disciples!
These dozen or so outer sect disciples were not as dazzling as the four prodigies, but they had hidden their abilities well and were ready to shock the world!
At this moment, each of them had a powerful Numinous Treasure protecting their bodies, or they were relying on their powerful cultivation techniques to support themselves. With heavy footsteps, they chased after the four prodigies in front of them.
Their goal was to become this year's Grand Ceremony's number one dark horse. That way, they would have the chance to gain the recognition of the four Hall Masters and become their personal disciples.
That would be ten times more dazzling than an ordinary personal disciple!
Among the dozen or so people following the four prodigies, there was a youth in black called Gan Ping. He was gradually leading the others and closing in on the four prodigies.
He formed a seal with his hands and controlled a pair of steel claws to fly around his body, resisting the terrifying heat waves of the Spirit Spring. He gritted his teeth and walked forward slowly with determination in his eyes.
Gan Ping looked at the backs of the four prodigies with an unyielding gaze. He had been able to break through to the Soothing Meridian realm two years ago. The reason he had endured until now was so that he could shock the world today!
He knew that each of the four prodigies had the support of a powerful family, so their cultivation resources far exceeded that of ordinary disciples.
He, Gan Ping, was also an ordinary outer sect disciple, but unlike his name, he wanted to stand out and gain everyone's recognition.
Hence, the effort he had put in over the past few years was several times that of ordinary people. He had risked his life countless times to enter the ancient mountains alone to search for treasures. Fortunately, the heavens had blessed him and allowed him to obtain a pair of steel claws and a cultivation technique.
He believed that the current him would not lose to any of the four prodigies. He only had one goal today, and that was to crush everything and become the number one in this Grand Ceremony!
"Four prodigies? Hmph, I, Gan Ping, will definitely not lose to you! "
Gan Ping's expression was ferocious as he erupted with all his potential. He did his best to get closer to the four geniuses. He was only three steps away from catching up to Yu Meiyan.
Yu Meiyan also sensed Gan Ping behind her. Her pretty eyes narrowed as she pointed with her delicate finger. The little green snake that had been continuously circling around her silently hissed. The fire symbols on the snake's body suddenly lit up and its speed more than doubled.
Yu Meiyan's complexion lightened, as if the terrifying heatwave around her had weakened by thirty percent. Her feet moved lightly as she chased after Wan Li, once again pulling away from Gan Ping.
Gan Ping's eyes narrowed. He clapped his hands together, forming a profound seal. His two claws whistled through the air like wind and thunder. Gan Ping increased his speed once more, chasing after Yu Meiyan and the others.
Yu Meiyan and Gan Ping's increase in speed caused Wan Li, who was in front, to feel the pressure. With a loud roar, the Fire Scale Armour around his body emitted a fiery red glow. Immediately, he strode forward and chased after Mu Qingshan and Nangong Lingfeng, who were a short distance away.
Mu Qingshan and Nangong Lingfeng also sped up. The five people in the first group directly left the others far behind.
When the dozen or so outer court disciples in the second group saw this, a sense of helplessness appeared in their eyes. They had already done their best, but they were still left behind by the five people in front of them. They could only sigh and accept their fate.
"Sigh, looks like this year's dark horse is none other than Gan Ping."
Everyone in the second group looked at Gan Ping enviously. He would probably amaze the world with this grand ceremony and be hailed as another prodigy of this generation in the Fire Spirit Sect.
However, just as they were about to give up, they suddenly felt a terrifying fiery energy appear behind them. This fiery energy was even hotter than the heatwave from the Spirit Flame Spring. At the same time, it gave off an icy feeling!
Everyone turned around in panic and saw a ball of white flames slowly approaching them. They were so frightened that they hurriedly dodged to the side.
"What is that?"
"It's even hotter than the Spirit Flame Spring!"
"Luckily, we ran fast. Otherwise, we would have been burned to death by it!"
Everyone stared at the ball of white flames in panic. There seemed to be a thin figure in the flames, and he was walking toward the center step by step.
"There seems to be … someone in this terrifying flame!"
As one of the disciples screamed, everyone noticed that there seemed to be a young man in a servant's uniform in the white flames …
"Yun Fan! It's Yun Fan! "Everyone screamed.
"This Yun Fan can actually control such a powerful fiery energy. Even Mu Qingshan, the prodigy of the Flame Mountain, can't do that, right?"
"What kind of servant is this? He's clearly a peerless prodigy!"
The hearts of the disciples who had witnessed all of this with their own eyes were already surging with monstrous waves. They had never imagined that such a lowly servant would actually possess such abnormal strength!
The white flames seemed to have come from an extremely cold place. It made people feel a chill that seemed to be able to freeze their souls, but it also made them feel as if they were in a sea of fire. It was incomparably hot!
Looking at Yun Fan, who was like a god of fire, as he slowly walked past them, the terrifying fiery energy made them tremble with fear.
At this moment, they knew that the final result of this year's Inner Sect Ceremony would become complicated and confusing because of Yun Fan's appearance …
Feeling the fearful gazes from the surroundings, Yun Fan, who was in the flames, smiled faintly. He had just thought of using the Heavenly Flame to resist the heat wave of the Spirit Flame Spring.
The terrifying heat of the Bone Ice Fire naturally far exceeded the Spirit Flame Spring. Even if Yun Fan could not unleash the full power of the Bone Ice Fire, it was more than enough to resist the Spirit Flame Spring.
If it was not for the fact that he had only subdued the Bone Ice Fire for a short period of time and did not have the time to use the Heavenly Flame to completely change his physique, the heat of the Spirit Flame Spring was like soaking in a hot spring to Yun Fan.
"The first place of the Inner Sect Ceremony belongs to me!"
Yun Fan lifted his gaze slightly and looked at the five figures in front of him. Laughing faintly, he strode forward.
Yun Fan's strange actions finally attracted the attention of Sect Leader Mo Qian and the four Hall Masters. Especially Hall Master Xiang Yan. At this moment, his old eyes were already wide open. There was no trace of the dignity and composure of a Hall Master.
"That flame … that flame … this kid …"
Looking at the flames surrounding Yun Fan, Xiang Yan raised his trembling finger and his breathing quickened.
"Why does the flame on this young man's body feel so similar to the residual fiery energy from a few days ago at the back of the mountain?"
Qiu Ji frowned and looked at Xiang Yunfan thoughtfully.
"The person who was cultivating at the back of the mountain that night was this kid!"
Zhong Bu 'er shouted with great certainty, causing Sect Leader Mo Qian to be shocked.
