Chapter 44 (1/2)
The residence master’s words indicated that the Inner Residence Martial Arts Tea Party had officially ended.
The results surprised nobody.
Although Lin Han, the strongest black horse that had emerged from the Outer Residence, had arrived late, he did not disappoint anyone because he successfully entered the top three of the Inner Residence.
Furthermore, that breathtaking display he had shown when he went against Elder White Eyebrow made everyone secretly feel that if Lin Han were to get another chance at a challenge, he just might compete with Lin Gutian for the position of top disciple.
In any case, the highly-anticipated Inner Residence Martial Arts Tea Party was now finally over.
Lin Han’s name would also resonate throughout the entire Lin Clan Sect Residence from now on.
It might even resonate throughout the entirety of Broken Sky City!
Next, the Inner Residence elder that hosted the Martial Arts Tea Party began announcing the rankings.
First—Lin Gu Tian.
Second—Lin Yu.
Third—Lin Han.
Fourth—Lin Cai.
Fifth—Lin Jiao.
…
Fifteenth—Lin Ruyan.
…
Twentieth—Lin Tian.
…
Thirty-sixth—Lin Yan.
…
Forty-eighth—Lin Sha.
…
After his announcements, the Inner Residence elder smiled.
Although the Martial Arts Tea Party this time had displaced a lot of the original geniuses from the Inner Residence, it had also allowed a lot of dark horses from the Outer Residence to shine.
Especially Lin Han, the most prominent dark horse of them all.
In fact, some people now already regarded Lin Han as being almost on equal ground with the most mysterious and most powerful Lin Gutian.
Many disciples from the Outer Residence even regarded Lin Han as the true number one of the Inner Residence as well.
However, Lin Han refused to comment on these speculations.
He knew very clearly that if he were to go against Lin Gutian, a genius young man part of the Five Prides of Broken Sky City, he would not only have a low chance of winning, he might even suffer a terrible defeat.
However, Lin Han was not discouraged by this.
How long had it been since he truly stepped onto the path of martial arts cultivation?
He had already achieved so much after only half a month.
The Art of the Ancient Dragon Emperor’s power was evidently very frightening.
However, Lin Han has also gradually realized a major shortcoming of the Art of the Ancient Dragon Emperor, which was martial arts.
That’s right.
Many of the inherited cultivation methods for Warriors possessed a set of powerful martial arts.
However, the Art of the Ancient Dragon Emperor had nothing like that.
Therefore, Lin Han had to acquire, cultivate, and comprehend martial arts and combat skills himself.
The Art of the Ancient Dragon Emperor blessed Lin Han with a powerful physique, with vigorous Dragon Power True Element, and with the Dragon Emperor Combat Body.
However, it appeared that there was nothing that was truly perfect in this world.
Lin Han had never comprehended any set of inherited martial arts from the Art of the Ancient Dragon Emperor.
This made Lin Han wonder if his cultivation base was too low, which would mean that he did not have the right to access the true inherited martial arts that the unrivaled Art of the Ancient Dragon Emperor possessed.
Lin Han was not a greedy and insatiable person.
Therefore, Lin Han had always only ever sought out more and more powerful martial arts.
He always turned a blind eye at cultivation methods.
After all, what on earth could be more powerful than his Art of the Ancient Dragon Emperor?
According to the description given by the dying will of the Ancient Dragon Emperor, cultivating the combination of the Art of the Ancient Dragon Emperor and the Golden Spirit Fire to the end would allow him to access the legendary unrivaled inherited martial arts known as the divine realm.
Besides, the Golden Spirit Fire was actually a condensation of the Ancient Dragon Emperor’s divine fire of life.
If it were not for the fact that the Ancient Dragon Emperor was betrayed by his most beloved woman, he might have long stepped into the divine realm and became an undying immortal.
Fortunately, the secret to becoming a god had crossed through the endless void of space and time and traversed across the vast universe to this tiny speck of dust to land in Lin Han’s lap.
At this moment, the residence master stood in the survival arena and began announcing the final prizes for the Martial Arts Tea Party.
“The top three Inner Residence disciples—Lin Gutian, Lin Yu, and Lin Han, will each be awarded one Element Condensation Pill, one Element Breakthrough Pill, one set of top-grade martial arts, and one stalk of the Thousand-Year Snow Lotus.
“The fourth to tenth Inner Residence disciples will each be awarded…”
As the residence master announced the prizes, all of the disciples’ eyes gleamed with envy, especially when they heard the prizes for the top three disciples.
Element Breakthrough Pill!
Top-grade martial arts!
