Chapter 2125 (Raw 2230): Succeeding in Pairs
The loser’s arena battles were still ongoing. Lei Hao had opted out, but Yun Fei was still fighting in the endless battles.
The Peach Blossom Sovereign Emperor was still around. After Xiao Chen took his leave from Shangguan Yun, he did not rush to leave. He waited with Lei Hao to see Yun Fei’s results.
“Congratulations, Little Brother Xiao Chen.”
Lei Hao looked somewhat enviously at Xiao Chen. By entering the Heavenly Alliance, becoming a super faction member, Xiao Chen gained a great advantage over cultivators who were not members of a super faction, cultivators like him. Xiao Chen’s cultivation path would be much smoother in the future.
Thinking of this, Lei Hao felt somewhat sorrowful. Who did not want to go further on the path of cultivation?
“Many thanks, Big Brother Lei Hao.”
Xiao Chen could make out Lei Hao’s disappointment. Thus, he softly consoled Lei Hao. Of one million Sovereign Personages, only one hundred in the winner’s group and ten in the loser’s group could succeed, a total of one hundred and ten.
Most of the people got eliminated. It was not that Lei Hao was weak; the test was just too cruel.
Lei Hao looked at Xiao Chen and said, “Little Brother, don’t worry about me. After this failure, I only hope to break through to Sovereign Emperor in the future. While I no longer aim high, it will not be tiring.”
The two discussed in soft voices, casually chatting and exchanging information about the winner’s battles and the loser’s battles.
“Four heaven-defying experts appeared in this Heavenly Alliance’s test. Little Brother Xiao Chen, you have to pay attention to them during the ranking battles in the future,” Lei Hao seriously told Xiao Chen. Compared to Xiao Chen, he seemed to understand more about the situation of the Heavenly Alliance’s tests.
Heaven-defying experts?
What was a heaven-defying expert? Sovereign Personages who could crush the other geniuses during the second stage as though they were still in the first stage were heaven-defying experts.
Xiao Chen and Gong Liangyu could not be considered heaven-defying experts. When the numbers reduced to the final thirty in their secret realm, everyone’s strength was roughly similar.
The only difference was mental state, a matter of whose mental state surpa.s.sed the others. The one who surpa.s.sed the others gained more opportunities.
The heaven-defying Sovereign Personages appeared significantly stronger than the others. Mental state could not affect the situation.
The difference in strength was too great. Even if such a heaven-defying Sovereign Personage did not pay attention and got careless, he would still win.
Such partic.i.p.ants could be considered unrivaled among Sovereign Personages, heaven-defying people.
Xiao Chen thought, It is not surprising that such heaven-defying Sovereign Personages appeared.
After all, the requirement on partic.i.p.ants is Sovereign Personages under five hundred years old. If I had three hundred years, I would be confident of crus.h.i.+ng Gong Liangyu and Lin Xi without any pressure.
However, Xiao Chen still felt surprised at four such Sovereign Personages appearing this time.
“Which four?”
Lei Hao said sullenly, “Saber Demon Wu Meng, he is a monster from the Tianwu Dynasty testing zone. He was the one who eliminated me. He did that in one saber strike; I got sent out even before I clearly saw it. Just thinking of that fellow’s expression still gives me chills. With just one look, I knew I would lose.”
“Saber Demon Wu Meng? He is a Demonic Dao cultivator?”
Lei Hao quickly denied, “How could that be possible? The Demonic Dao Hall and the Underworld G.o.d Hall are our mortal enemies—a relations.h.i.+p where one side has to perish. The Heavenly Alliance cannot possibly accept Demonic Dao cultivators. He is called the Saber Demon because of his style. His saber moves are as terrifying as demons.”
Xiao Chen’s heart skipped a beat. It looked like he had to be careful not to expose his Demonic Cloud Heaven Swallowing Art.
“As for the other three, they are Grim Reaper Lin Feng, Sword Venerate Gongzi Lan, and Spear Sovereign Mo Yu. Among which, Grim Reaper Lin Feng is the most terrifying. Many people say that he might be the strongest partic.i.p.ant in this Heavenly Alliance’s test. After this ends, he will receive many benefits.”
Xiao Chen wrote all these names in his heart. Then, he asked Lei Hao for paintings of these people.
After entering the Heavenly Alliance, they still had to undergo a ranking battle, fighting each other. The ranking would affect the final reward and whether one could attract a true expert within the Heavenly Alliance.
After Lei Hao gave Xiao Chen everything, he smiled and said, “Little Brother Xiao Chen, besides these four, your fame within this Heavenly Alliance’s test is no less than theirs. In fact, you might be more famous.”
“What do you mean?”
“Earlier, someone said that if you could enter the Heavenly Alliance, you would be the youngest member in history. It is not just this test but all the past tests since the establishment of the Heavenly Alliance. You are the youngest member.”
That really seemed to be the case. The other factions had many outstanding talents like Xiao Chen. For example, the Martial G.o.d Palace, which controlled the eight great empires, or the Universe Origin Sect, which controlled the Tianwu Dynasty, held a much greater attraction for outstanding talents than the Heavenly Alliance.
In reality, Xiao Chen should have entered the Martial G.o.d Palace had nothing gone wrong.
