1160 Gu Lan (1/2)
Chapter 1160 - Gu Lan
Sky Feather Island had five Exchange Spiritual Halls. The richest Exchange Spiritual Hall was owned by the Sky Feather Island Lord, so no one dared to fight for it. The remaining four Exchange Spiritual Halls were fought over by the remaining forces of Sky Feather Island Zone.
The Blue-Eyed Ice Wolf Race was ranked fourth among the forces of Sky Feather Island in terms of strength, and it was the weakest of the four forces that owned an Exchange Spiritual Hall. It was because of this reason that the competition for this particular Exchange Spiritual Hall was going to be extremely tough. A total of six four-star powers were going to participate, but the situation this time was different from before; instead of the Scarlet Sun Race, the Blazing Fire Golden Sheep Race – the weakest force in the area – was participating.
When the Blazing Fire Golden Sheep Race arrived at the Exchange Spiritual Hall, they were mocked by the other experts and looked down upon.
”I didn't think that the weakest four-star power of Sky Feather Island would participate in the fight for the Exchange Spiritual Hall. Could the Blazing Fire Golden Sheep Race have trained a powerful Demigod genius?”
”Stop joking. I'm sure that the Blazing Fire Golden Sheep Race will send their First Elder out to fight!”
There were always some people in the crowd that weren't strong but liked to mock others. However, it was true that the Blazing Fire Golden Sheep Race indeed didn't have any Demigod geniuses. Apart from the four Demigod Elders, they didn't have any other Demigods.
The Blue-Eyed Ice Wolf Race had five more Demigod geniuses apart from their six Demigod Elders. The strongest Demigod genius was even stronger than the six Elders; this genius was obviously suppressing his cultivation and trying to become a higher-ranked God.
The other powerful races also raised geniuses like this. Once they managed to break through to the Heavenly Divine Realm, they might very likely become a Rank Two True God directly and lead the race. For example, the Scarlet Sun Race, which was ranked in the top ten, had three Demigod geniuses who were stronger than the Demigods of the older generation.
Therefore, most of those that appeared in the competition for the Exchange Spiritual Hall were younger Demigods. Even if they weren't, they wouldn't be far off. It would be a big joke if the Blazing Fire Golden Sheep Race sent out the First Elder, who was more than a hundred thousand years old.
”I think that the Shark Tooth Race will win this time. Seng Yu has become even stronger!”
”Did you not hear the rumors? The patriarch of the Blue-Eyed Ice Wolf Race found a Demigod expert and brought him back to the race. Now this genius is participating in the competition!”
The strongest forces participating were the Blue-Eyed Ice Wolf Race and the Shark Tooth Race. After that were the Emerald Green Feather Race and the Scarlet Sun Race, but the Scarlet Sun Race had given up this time. The other races were not in the top ten, so no one thought well of them.
A large arena had been built in the Exchange Spiritual Hall for the competition. Stone stands surrounded the arena. Only the stronger forces or True God experts could sit on the stone stands; the other spectators could only hover in the air and watch.
There were only a few people on the eastern stands, but they were the center of attention. Amongst them was a human with white skin and a handsome face. He had an arrogant and noble attitude. This was Xi Feng, the disciple of the Sky Feather Island Lord.
”Martial Uncle, who do you think will win this time?” Xi Feng looked at a middle-aged male next to him with respect.
”I heard that the Blue-Eyed Ice Wolf Race recruited a strong Demigod genius. They will probably win again this time!” This male had a dark and nasty expression, as if he was a ghost, and he spoke in a nonchalant tone.
The Blue-Eyed Ice Wolf Race members were full of smiles. Only one of the youths had a cold expression, and his eyes were closed.
On the other side, those from the Shark Tooth Race felt extremely frustrated and angry, but they didn't dare to do anything because the person in front of them was True God Guili, a Rank Two True God of Sky Feather Island. He and Xi Feng were the judges for the Exchange Spiritual Hall competition, and a judge saying that the Blue-Eyed Ice Wolf Race would win in front of everyone else meant that True God Guili was standing on the Blue-Eyed Iced Wolf Race's side.
However, the Shark Tooth Race believed that True God Guili would stand on their side as long as they could defeat the Blue-Eyed Ice Wolf Race and took out enough wealth.
”Seng Yu, preserve your strength and watch out for Gu Lan from the Blue-Eyed Ice Wolf Race!” the patriarch of the Shark Tooth Race said to a large male radiating a fierce aura.
”Ding Hu, help Seng Yu!” the patriarch of the Shark Tooth Race said to another genius.
There were two stages to the competition of the Exchange Spiritual Hall. The experts of every force that was participating would enter the arena, and only the four that remained behind could progress to the second stage. The victor would then be decided in the second stage.
Each force could send out two people in the first stage, but in reality, the mission of the second person was the protect the strongest expert of the race so that they could preserve their strength for the second round.
”Since everyone is here, we can start now!” True God Guili said in a raspy voice from the eastern stone stands.
”It's about to start!”
Discussion broke out amongst the spectators.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
More than ten powerful auras instantly leapt onto the arena.
Since there were six participating forces this time, there should've been twelve people on the arena, but instead, there was only eleven. Everyone couldn't help but look at Zhao Feng, who represented the Blazing Fire Golden Sheep Race.
”They dare to participate with just one person? Aren't they just going to humiliate themselves?”
”Doesn't the Blazing Fire Golden Sheep Race have several Demigod elders? Two people would at least increase their chances a little bit! Hahaha!”
”This person's cultivation is so low. Is the Blazing Fire Golden Sheep Race sending him to his death?”
Some of those nearby roared with laughter when they saw Zhao Feng. Many geniuses on the arena also revealed disdainful looks.
”I don't know where you get the courage to participate in this competition with just the cultivation of a measly peak-stage Mystic Light Realm!” The strongest expert of the Emerald Green Feather Race had a smile of mockery.
Gu Lan from the Blue-Eyed Ice Wolf Race suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Zhao Feng.
”It's him?” Xi Feng's eyebrows furrowed.
”Feng'er, what is it?” True God Guili asked.
