Chapter 112 Departure, Yun Fei Yan

  Watching Chen Huan walk towards him with a calm pace, Mo Yu Yi's whole body trembled with inexplicable excitement!

  He Lian's beautiful eyes stared blankly at Chen Huan, who was both familiar and strange to her, her heart trembling slightly.

  She was a young girl, although she always seemed cold and unfeeling on the surface, like an iceberg that kept people at bay. But this change only occurred after Chen Hao's "transgression".

  She used to want to trample Chen Huan under her feet to avenge the humiliation he had inflicted on her in public. But fate inexplicably brought them together, and as they interacted more, her psychology underwent subtle changes. Especially when Chen Huan seemed to not take her as a woman and even trained her in a certain aspect, the hatred in her heart unexpectedly decreased... "Boss, you're finally back..." Mo Yu Yi said excitedly.

  He Lian Wuzi, however, simply gazed at Chen Huan, her icy and beautiful small face extremely rarely showing a faint flush.

  "Junior brother, congratulations! I really didn't expect that in a year and a half, you would actually advance to such a realm. Now you're even more powerful than senior sister..." Fang Qing, who was with the two of them, said calmly.

  "It was just a fluke. Elder sister's aura has certainly reached the level of Emperor Intent, right? The combat power of Emperor Intent is quite strong..."

  "Even if you're stronger, you can't be stronger than a fifth-grade martial emperor! Let's go, we'll talk as we walk!" Fang Qing said with a smile.

  Chen Hao, who had just returned, was not aware that for more than a year, He Lian Wuzi and Mo Yu Yi were both in Fang Qing's small team. So, when he heard Fang Qing's words, he looked at He Lian Wuzi and Mo Yu Yi with slight confusion.

  "During this time, thanks to Huang Da Shu and Fang Qing Shi Jie taking care of us, otherwise, I and Xiao Mo..." He Lian Wu Zi said.

  "What's the point of taking care or not, you're all Grandmaster's personally acknowledged disciples, it's what a senior sister should do." Fang Qing said with a slight smile, then looked at Chen Huan and lowered her voice: "Junior brother, the East family has become unbridled because of an extremely powerful person, even the royal family can't do anything about it. So... for now, you should hold back a bit, when dealing with East Jun and others, don't be too extreme. With your current cultivation and combat power, this New Star Ranking competition will definitely get you a good ranking. In two more years, who knows, maybe you'll have the qualifications to participate in the Hundred Dynasties Ranking competition. Once you appear on that stage, you'll have the chance to become a super existence... at that time, East Jun won't dare to compete with you for Xiao Wu even if he's being arrogant..."

  "Cough...cough..."

  Chen Hao originally listened well, although he learned about the New Star List, the Hundred Dynasty List, and the Dragon Transformation List from Xia Youyou, but he only knew that he had to go through layer by layer of competition in order to enter that truly strong world. However, Xia Youyou didn't understand the specific situation and hadn't really cared about it either. So when Fang Qing mentioned it, Chen Hao was actually quite interested, but a sentence "I don't dare compete with you for Xiao Wu" made him suddenly cough awkwardly.

  He Lian Wu Zi's face was completely red, and he opened his mouth as if wanting to say something but didn't know what to say.

  Mo Yu Yi's face was as calm as a still pond, as if Fang Qing's words were an undeniable fact.

  Chen Hao also didn't bother to explain, this kind of thing would only get more and more complicated, directly changing the subject: "Shi Jie, the New Star Ranking Competition of the Eight Nations, what ranking do you need to have in order to qualify for the Hundred Dynasties Ranking?"

  "The qualification for the Billboard 100 is more complicated, and our ranking on the Billboard New Artist Chart is not a true newcomer chart."

  "Is it true or false?"

  "Hmm. The eight kingdoms that host the Eight Kingdoms New Star Ranking are all vassal states of the Xuanwu Empire, and being able to get into the top ten of the Eight Kingdoms New Star Ranking gives one the qualification to participate in the Xuanwu Empire's New Star Ranking. Among the many geniuses competing in the Xuanwu Empire, getting into the top five allows one to gain the qualification to participate in the Hundred Dynasties Ranking. You're only fifteen years old, and you still have several years of time, so you absolutely have a chance! I, as well as Xiao Wu and Xiao Mo, also all have chances, but it will definitely be two years later than yours..."

  More than ten days have passed in the blink of an eye.

  Chen Hao never participated in the so-called arena training again after being defeated in the main arena, because all the disciples who obtained qualifications this time would be allowed to choose the most suitable ultimate skill for their cultivation in the Ultimate Academy based on their realm. Chen Hao himself was already late, with only a little over ten days left, and it would be difficult to comprehend an ultimate skill even if he had exceptional talent. However, what surprised Chen Hao slightly was that the majestic master of the Royal Newcomer Hall directly removed the seal on the ultimate skill manual that Chen Hao had chosen, allowing him to see all the mental formulas and incantations before comprehending it.

  Chen Hao directly closed his doors for over ten days.

  On this day, the sun shone brightly. Among nearly two thousand disciples of the Imperial New Star Hall, only thirty-five outstanding disciples qualified for the Eight Nations New Star Chart competition.

  Thirty-five people, including the hall master and two deputy halls, as well as the four gatekeepers led by Huang Qi, and a mysterious figure that made Chen Huan feel astonished, set foot on the journey to the Eight Nations New Star Ranking Competition!

  Whoosh... All disciples of the Emperor's cultivation rose into the air and set off towards the powerful Xuanwu Empire.

  "Feiyan sister, how did you come?"

  After Ling Kong flew up, the enchanting figure that made Chen Huan surprised brought a smile and directly arrived beside Chen Huan, Fang Qing, He Lian Wu Zi, Mo Yu Yi and Liu Yun Feng's small group. Fang Qing was clearly familiar with the newcomer and asked in surprise.

  This enchanting figure was none other than Yun Feiyan, with whom he had a fleeting connection.

  "There are so many free masters serving as bodyguards, my sister just happens to join in the fun and take the opportunity to make some purchases in the Xuanwu Empire." Yun Fei Yan smiled slightly, speaking with a charming tone. As she spoke, her beautiful eyes looked directly at Chen Heng without any reserve, and her figure flashed as she chased after him, saying: "Little junior brother, it's been over a year since we last met, do you miss your senior sister? You really are surprising your senior sister, I heard that you've already reached the fifth rank of Wu Emperor, not only has your strength increased amazingly, but you're also getting more and more handsome... hehe..."

  Those intimate voices and affectionate words made Chen Huan's head ache, leaving him speechless.

  Fang Qing was also slightly surprised, not expecting Yun Feiyan to know Chen Huan. He Lian Wuzi's already cold face wrinkled slightly, her eyes seemingly involuntarily carrying a hint of faint hostility as she looked at Yun Feiyan.

  "You're Little Dance, right? Such a pretty little girl, no wonder Little Shidi can't even take care of beautiful me..."

  Yun Fei Yan was incredibly formidable, with just a few words, she made He Lian Wu Zi's face flush red and her hostility dissipate.

  With the knowledgeable Yun Feiyan by their side, even the dull flights became enjoyable for Chen Hua and Fang Qing. Every time they passed a place, Yun Feiyan would tell them stories about it, which was undoubtedly very useful for Chen Hua and others who had never been far from home.

  Dongfang Jian, Zhao Yunlong, and Baili Xi, the top disciples of the three major halls. They are also among the 35 disciples who have the highest hopes of entering the top ten, all of whom have reached the realm of Eighth-Rank Martial Emperor.

  Chen Hao, Dongfang Jun and Zhao Yunfei are the most outstanding. Although there is no hope of getting into the top ten, the three of them are young and have time, and two years later, they will definitely shine brightly. There are also Zhuge Qingyun, He Lian Wuzi, Mo Yu Yi who are slightly less colorful, but equally promising disciples. Before departure, the hall master repeatedly emphasized that their task this time is only to participate, and don't worry too much about what ranking they get. When there is a risk to life, they must admit defeat in advance.

  Because there are no rules in the New Star Chart competition, it's every man for himself. The only way to survive is to admit defeat and yield, the intensity of the competition can be imagined.

  "Finally can be completely unscrupulous..."

  Chen Hao gazed down at the rapidly retreating mountains below, his dark eyes gleaming with a sharp light. From the Xiao family to now, although the environment for cultivation in the Imperial New Star Hall had undergone great changes, Chen Hao still felt a sense of oppression. That oppression made it impossible for him to act freely, and he needed to be cautious at every step, just like when facing the disciples of the Dongfang family. Even though he had countless opportunities to kill, he couldn't do so as he pleased. Because both sides were constrained, Dongfang Jun was arrogant but didn't dare go too far, and Chen Hao even less so.

  But the New Star Chart, a rule-less and harmless competition that wouldn't affect those around him or his family, excited Chen Huan from deep within!

  As long as he is strong enough, Zhongyuan Kingdom will always be the shield for his loved ones. Unless Zhongyuan Kingdom perishes, no one in Zhongyuan Kingdom dares to touch his loved ones!

  For six days and six nights, except for the necessary recovery of meditation, the group did not delay at all, flying through the air for over a million miles, crossing countless mountains, rivers, cities, and wilderness, finally entering the vast and rich Xuanwu Empire.

  Gazing down at the landscape, where mountains rose and fell, sometimes a vast plain stretched out, and sometimes rivers and lakes sparkled, presenting a rich, prosperous, and thriving scene. The disciples who had just left the Town of Yuan Kingdom couldn't help but marvel in awe. Especially with the increasingly dense heavenly energy between heaven and earth, these disciples felt even more deeply the barrenness of the Town of Yuan Kingdom.

  After several hours, a magnificent and majestic city appeared before everyone's eyes, with an endless expanse that seemed to stretch on forever. In the distance, the city was shrouded in a kaleidoscope of colors, with auspicious clouds soaring into the sky, its grandeur many times greater than that of the Great Thousand City of the Zhongyang Kingdom.

  "This is the capital of Xuanwu Empire, Longyuan City, and also the venue for this Eight Nations New Star Ranking Competition. The Xuanwu Empire has a total of 32 vassal states, with eight kingdoms forming a group to determine the top ten and obtain the qualification to participate in the Xuanwu Empire's New Star Ranking. Among the 32 vassal states, only 40 people are selected. Each of the 82 provinces of the Xuanwu Empire has one representative, and there are also 10 representatives from each of the major powers in the capital city. In other words, a total of 132 participants will be competing in the true New Star Ranking!"

  The hall master flying in the front suddenly turned around and said to the crowd: "In our Town Yuan Kingdom, the best achievement in nearly twenty years is Dongfang Ting of the Dongfang family. She is also the only disciple who passed the layer-by-layer selection and obtained the qualification to participate in the Bai Chao List. Moreover, she has a good performance in the Bai Chao List and became a strong sect's disciple! She is your model! This time, I hope it will be pinned on Dongfang Jian, Zhao Yunlong, and Baili Xi, you three!"
