"Whoosh...whoosh...whoosh..."
Chen Haohui's mind merged into the treasure sword, sensing the runes within. With a slight flick of his wrist, nine curved moon-shaped sword lights suddenly poured out.
"Condense!"
Chen Hao let out a light hum, and under the spiritual control of the Micro Realm, the runes in the treasure sword suddenly activated completely. The nine curved moon arcs miraculously gathered together to form a full moon. The entire cultivation room was dyed with a layer of cold moonlight.
"Moonlight Sword. Under the moonlight, it transforms into countless forms, soft and hard, with boundless power... It's quite suitable for Xiaowu... I wonder which country's unfortunate soul left behind this sword's inscription, it's indeed profound... I'll use it to participate in the New Star Tournament... I'm also avenging that unfortunate soul, I believe no one will have the nerve to ask me to return it..."
Chen Hao gazed intently at the seemingly real full moon in front of him, his mind clear that as soon as his spirit stirred, this gentle and cold moonlight would transform into the most violent attack, probably even the cultivation room wouldn't be able to withstand it.
A faint smile, the treasure sword "hummed" a sound, once again a burst, the moonlight and the treasure sword both disappeared into nothingness, while Chen Huan sank into a subtle meditation.
Three months of arduous training, only Chen Huan himself was clear about the extent of his combat power. Seventh-grade Emperor level, seemingly only two grades higher, but Chen Huan believed that if he were to encounter the original eighth-grade Martial Emperor Yin Feng Han again, without using the Xuan Huang Ring, he would be able to easily kill him.
Because...
The power of fusion energy, Chen Hao didn't use it at all in his later training, the only thing he used was yuan force, pure yuan force!
……
The next day, early morning.
The sky is as clear as a wash, with no clouds for ten thousand miles. A fiery red sun rises slowly from the east, symbolizing the Imperial Palace of the Xuanwu Empire, which represents the highest military power and authority. Under the sunlight, it emits countless rays of light, shrouded in a mysterious aura that envelops the palace's many halls.
The majestic bell tolls from the depths of the palace, the imperial palace's magnificent gate, ten zhang high and thirty-three zhang wide, slowly opens with a rumble under the push of two rows of mighty guards.
The countless big shots who had been waiting outside, a team of dozens of people, with more or less tension on their faces, did not rush forward, but only neatly followed the order and stepped into the Imperial Palace.
The New Star Ranking Match will be held on the highest-spec arena of the Imperial Palace.
Facing the powerful aura, Chen Huan's expression was extremely calm, only his eyes would occasionally flash with a sharp light, making people understand that this extraordinary young man was also emotionally stirred, and had intense anticipation for the upcoming clash of geniuses...
The crowd's whispers, Chen Hao occasionally heard his own name, and felt a probing energy fluctuation. It was clear that the newcomer competition preliminary round, with fifth-grade Wudi cultivation, had a fierce battle with Yin Fenghan, and even shocked the number one master Mu Qing to appear, he was also one of the most eye-catching among many talented disciples.
……
"Come on, little brother Chen Hao..."
As Chen Hao and Dongfang Jun, Dongfang Jian followed Zhao Xingyu and others into the imperial palace gate, nearly a hundred elderly people stood on both sides to greet them. One of the elderly men smiled and greeted Chen Hao as he passed by his side.
"Thank you, Senior Mu." Chen Hao smiled slightly and said. At the same time, he made a fist to greet several other elderly men who were smiling and nodding at him.
These old men were none other than the ones who had asked Chen Huan to carve for them. The people welcoming him on the scene were obviously big shots in the empire with a good reputation.
……
Contrary to Chen Huan's expectations, the audience seats in the martial arts arena were not large, with only three sides of the stands. The other side was a high and mighty rostrum. The three-sided stands could accommodate about 10,000 people at most, but they looked luxurious and grand, with long tables running through each row in front of the seats.
The front row is for the representatives of each kingdom and province.
In the very center is a circular arena, with a diameter of about 300 zhang.
What surprised Chen Huan was that with just a rough glance, he could see that this arena was a specially made one, its material emitting a metallic luster, and the surface of the arena was covered in golden lines and symbols.
"This is the imperial highest specification arena, with super high-end masters condensing the ban. When you start the match, the ban will be activated, covering the entire arena in a layer of boundary. The space ban inside will also make the arena thousands of feet square and hundreds of feet high. Unless it's a martial saint-level battle, it won't cause any damage to the arena. At the same time, your fighting scene will also be magnified several times by the boundary, making it clear for the audience on site."
Huang Qi saw Chen Hao's three people's surprised expression and slowly explained.
……
In less than a moment, as the crowd surged in, the entire arena's stands were filled to capacity, with over a thousand young boys and girls, dressed in uniform attire, sitting in the last few rows of the stands. These disciples were members of the Imperial New Star Hall.
Others are all like Zhao Xingyu's brought high-end, belonging to the top figures of various kingdoms.
As soon as everyone arrived, dozens of terrifying auras suddenly came from the entrance of the martial arts arena. Dongfang Ting and Mu Qing were among them, but with Dongfang Ting's identity and cultivation, she was only walking on the periphery. There were also several young-looking but powerful masters, each with an arrogant expression on their faces, their aura making even the middle-aged man who was clearly the emperor of the Imperial Empire look inferior by comparison.
It's clear that these people are from another dimension, just in a different camp than Dongfang Ting.
The noisy crowd suddenly fell silent, with each and every one of them gazing at the dozens of figures slowly rising into the air and floating towards the main stage with eyes full of reverence and admiration. Especially those who looked very young and handsome, they made the disciples who were about to participate in the competition, as well as the new disciples of the Imperial Main Stage's New Pavilion, extremely excited.
These people are their targets!
……
After the main characters took their seats, Mu Qing, the first master of the Xuanwu Empire, the Guardian Master, and the new star of the Imperial New Hall, walked solemnly to the front of the podium. He scanned the martial arts arena with his eyes and said slowly: "In this New Star Ranking Competition, as usual, our Xuanwu Empire has invited truly talented individuals who have emerged from our empire. Each of them has stood out from the New Star List, entered the Hundred Dynasties List, and demonstrated their extraordinary talents, becoming the sons of heaven chosen by the super sects in the Hundred Dynasties List. This is the pride of our Xuanwu Empire! It is also the foundation of our empire's long-lasting prosperity! Now, please allow me to introduce the pride of our Xuanwu Empire to you! The first one is Xuan Xian, who walked out of the Imperial New Hall eighteen years ago and is currently a sixth-grade disciple of the Yu Jian Sect. He will be promoted to a core disciple in just a few years and become a super existence!"
Splash...
As Mu Qing spoke, a young and beautiful woman with an extraordinary temperament, who was sitting next to the Emperor, stood up and slightly cupped her hands towards the martial arena. Her expression was calm and detached, as if she were above all worldly things, and in her eyes, everyone present seemed like ants. No one could enter her gaze.
But the more so, the more people feel its grandeur.
The martial arts arena erupted in a frenzy of cheers and applause, especially the disciples of the Imperial New Star Hall, who were extremely excited. Xuan Xing was a legendary figure at their Imperial New Star Hall.
"Is he a core disciple of the Yu Jian Sect? He's indeed very impressive..." Huang Qi murmured, then looked at Chen Huan and the others and said: "Another level of existence will also be known to you soon. The disciples on the main stage, like Dong Fang Ting Zhen Ren, are all from another level, transcending the imperial dynasty. Throughout the Wuji continent, there are countless sects, just like our kingdom and empire, with different levels. Divided into nine grades, one grade being the lowest and nine grades being the highest. A sixth-grade sect is already a very powerful existence. For Xuan Yang to become an inner disciple of the sixth-grade sect Yu Jian Sect and have hopes of advancing to core disciple status, that's already a genius among geniuses..."
"Is she even more formidable than my aunt?" Dongfang Jian asked in surprise.
"There is a heaven beyond the sky, and there are people beyond human. When you can promote to that level, your vision will naturally become wider... The path of cultivation has no end..."
……
Chen Hao was extremely calm. Because he had long known from Xia Youyou's mouth about the existence of a higher level. Whether Huang Qi knew or not, he wasn't clear. But breaking out of the New Star List, advancing to the Hundred Dynasty List, and entering the super-kingdom sect, wasn't his final destination...
Taking a deep breath, Chen Huan's eyes flashed with a sharp gleam!
A seemingly simple introduction, but it contains a subtle comparison of forces. Among the 33 super-existences, 10 are from the Xuanwu Empire's Xinxiu Hall, and even the lowest sect is a fourth-grade sect. The other 23, including Dongfang Ting, are all third-grade, second-grade or even first-grade sects. Dongfang Ting belongs to the third-grade sect Zhaixing Gate, which is also the only one in the Town Yuan Kingdom. The Daqian Kingdom has two, the Xingluo Kingdom has two, and most other kingdoms have one, while some kingdoms do not have any.
……
"This new ranking competition will be arbitrated by them, the arbitration group members of this new ranking competition. Our Xuanwu Empire Emperor will serve as the leader of the arbitration group and I will serve as the deputy leader. Let's begin..." Mu Qing said, looking towards the old man who had been waiting at the edge of the arena.
The elder bowed respectfully and then appeared at the edge of the arena near the audience seats, saying in a low voice: "A total of 133 disciples who have obtained the qualification to participate in this new star list. Thirteen people have entered the Yunwu Mountains for training and have not returned. The remaining 120 are intact! As for the competition method and rules, I think you are already clear, so I won't repeat them here! Five seeded players, after the arbitration group and the new star list pre-selection match, their combat situation has been determined as follows: First, Imperial New Star Hall Chief Nie Jianping, Second-Rank Martial Saint; Second, Qinglong Temple Chief Li Yifeng, First-Rank Martial Saint; Third, White Tiger Temple Chief Yang Fan, First-Rank Martial Saint...
