Chapter 64. Azure Region Grand Competition!
The Azure Region Grand Competition was held once every three years. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
It was a gathering of countless Chosen from the Azure Region.
At that time, almost all of the peerless geniuses on the Azure Ranking would appear.
Not only that, those hidden geniuses who were originally terrifyingly talented but had no desire to compete for the Azure Ranking would also appear.
The Azure Ranking and the others wouldnât fight, because even if they won first place, so what? It was just a fake name, and there was no real reward.
As a result, even if some extremely powerful Chosen possessed the strength to ascend the Azure Ranking, they wouldnât challenge them.
Donât look down on these hidden prodigies. Some of them could even challenge the top ten of the Azure Ranking Tournament. Almost a third of those hidden prodigies were not on the Azure Ranking!
The venue for the Azure Region Grand Competition was a super city in the center of the Azure Domain.
Qinghuang City was not only a city, it was also a power. It was also one of the top ten giants of the Azure Region. It was well-known with the Hao Tian Sword Sect, the Blood Moon Clan, and other powers.
The city lord was called the Azure King.
He was a peak early-stage King who was about to step into the middle-stage.
Sword Profound Sect
Black Tortoise Peak
Xuan Yi, who was in seclusion, was suddenly found by Sect Master Jian Nantian.
After seeing Xuan Yi, Jian Nantian spoke, âSomething happened!â
âWhatâs the matter?â
âThe Purple Moon Secret Realm⦠is no more.â
âEh?â
Xuan Yi was stunned.
The Purple Moon Secret Realm is no more? What did that mean?
âThis matter has been reported to the Heavenly Wind Kingdom and the Nine Hanging Rivers Kingdom for many days. Everyone thought it was just a joke, but later⦠More and more people discovered thatâ¦The Purple Moon Secret Realm had indeed disappeared! Without a trace! Thereâs nothing inside those one hundred entrances,â
When he sent a voice transmission, Jian Nantianâs face was also filled with shock.
The Purple Moon Secret Realm, which had existed in the Purple Moon Forest for thousands of years, had vanished into thin air!
Xuan Yi was bemused.
The Purple Moon Secret Realm was indeed very mysterious.
Xuan Yi even suspected that the owner of the Purple Moon Secret Realm was not the Frenzied Saber King, but someone else!
â¦â¦â¦
South Province
Heaven Region
One of the top twenty major regions on the Southern Continent.
On a certain snowy plain, an enormous stone door stood there
.
In front of the stone door, countless martial artists were gathered, constantly stepping into it.
If Xuan Yi and the others were here, they would recognize that this stone door was the entrance to the Purple Moon Secret Realm!
The secret realm that had originally been located in the Purple Moon Forest of the Azure Region had now appeared in the Realm of Mystic Heaven, which was an unknown distance away from the Azure Region!
âThe one who created this secret plane must be an extremely powerful King Realm expert. Itâs said that a few seniors tried to break through this secret planeâs door a few days ago, but not only did they fail to break through this secret planeâs door, they were also heavily injured by the power of this secret plane â¦â¦â
âYou must know, those senior kings were all Human Kings!â
âThere must be something extraordinary inside!â
âI heard that even the top ten prodigies like Huang Tian Shengzi and Cai Lianyi have entered!â
âThereâs no time to delay. Letâs go in as soon as possible. Donât snatch away all the treasures at that time.â
In the secret realm, the Divine Refining Pagoda.
At this moment, countless Chosen from all over the Heaven Region gathered around the Divine Refining Pagoda.
âHuang Tian Shengzi! First on the Heaven Rankings!â
âCai Lianyi, third on the Heaven Rankings!â
âQin Tian Ge, ninth on the Heaven Rankings!â
âWang Zhong! 15th on the rankings!â
Among the countless Chosen, there were four of them.
These four were the top geniuses of the younger generation in the Heaven Region. Other than Wang Chong, who was ranked 15th, the other three were all in the top ten!
Right now, the Divine Refining Pagoda hadnât opened yet. Everyone was waiting.
Before entering, they had thought that this secret realm would have many treasures, but the actual situation had greatly disappointed them.
Some of the so-called fourth rank spiritual herbs might be treasures to the people of the Nine Rivers Kingdoms in the Azure Region, but to the Chosen of a Region that was ranked in the top twenty of the Southern Continent, the Heaven Domain, they were not great even though they were not trash.
âRight now, I only hope that there will be something good in this Divine Refining Pagoda. Otherwise, this secret realm would be too disappointing.â
Next to the Divine Refining Pagoda, there was also a ranking stone tablet, causing people to discuss spiritedly.
âThis should be the ranking of all the people who have ascended this pagoda in the history of the Divine Refining Pagoda.
âHowever, on this ranking, why are the people of our Southern Continent ranked so low?â
âNot only that, but those people on the Ranking arenât ranked high, Mingyue Xue? More than 90,000, Gui Yiyi? Itâs just above fifty thousand. Itâs embarrassing. Itâs simply embarrassing the people of the Southern Continent.â
âOn the other hand, Xuan Yiâs name is not bad. Heâs given the face of the people of the Southern Continent. Not only is he ranked first on the Main Rankings, but heâs also reached the top. Hehe â¦â¦â
âItâs fine. Right now, there arenât many people from our Southern Continent on the Main Rankings, but very soon, there will be more. If we donât wait until the top ten, we will all be conquered by the people of our Southern Continent.â
âThatâs right. This time, there are quite a few top geniuses from the Heaven Region. Even Huang Tian Shengzi and Cai Lianyi are here. Speaking of which, Cai Lianyi is still so beautiful â¦â¦â
When everyone talked about it, they were looking down on the Divine Refining Pagoda.
They hadnât ascended the Divine Refining Pagoda before. They only thought that it wouldnât be difficult for them to ascend to around thirty to forty, maybe even fifty to sixty levels.
As for Huang Tian Shengzi, Cai Lianyi, and the other top geniuses of the Heaven Domain Realm, it would be easy to climb to the top.
However, was that the truth?
Of course not.
Not long after, the door of the Divine Refining Pagoda opened with a âKa Yiâ sound.
âThe door is open!â
âLetâs go! Letâs go!â
âHehe, my goal is the 50th level.â
âHaha, Iâll go up to the 60th as well.â
Before reaching the pagoda, countless people were filled with confidence and bold words.
However, very soon, they became a little bit less confident.
The first twenty or so levels were nothing, and most of them easily climbed up.
However, starting from the 30th level, the difficulty beganâ¦â¦Rising!
The enemy he was facing was several times stronger than the 29th level!
After reaching the 31st level with great difficulty, most of the people were dumbfounded.
The difficulty of the 31st level was several times more difficult than the original 30th level! The enemy he was facing was several times stronger than at the 30th level!
When these people were eliminated and walked out of the Divine Refining Pagoda, completely dumbfounded.
What the hell?
This Divine Refining Pagoda was this difficult?
As time passed, more and more people were eliminated.
Soon, they realized a very serious problemâ¦â¦
That wasâ¦It seemed that they had underestimated the Divine Refining Pagoda by far!
Originally, he had thought that with their innate talent and strength, it wouldnât be too difficult to climb to the 40th or 50th level, and even the 60th or 70th level wouldnât be difficult. However, in the endâ¦He didnât even reach the 40th level.
Apart from a few people, most of them were eliminated by the 40th level guards!
So far, Tang Qingyang, who was currently ranked first on the lower rankings, had only ascended to the 50th level, and he hadnât even entered the main rankings!
As for Tang Qingyang, he wasnât a nobody, but a true genius on the Heaven Rankings!
Even if his ranking on the Heaven Rankings wasnât high! But they were also the top geniuses of the Heaven Region!
âA bunch of trash.â
Wang Chong, who was ranked 15th on the Heaven Rankings, dropped this sentence and entered the Divine Refining Pagoda!
âWang Zhong has ascended the tower!â
Everyoneâs heart skipped a beat.
In reality, Wang Zhong was indeed worthy of being ranked 15th on the Heaven Rankings. After ascending the pagoda, he quickly surpassed Tang Qingyang and arrived at number one on the Vice Rankings. Moreover⦠He ascended to the main rankings!
And just as everyone thought that the king was going to ascend to a higher level, the light on the 53rd level⦠was extinguishedâ¦â¦.
In the end, Wang Zhongâs ranking was fixed just more than 98,000thâ¦
It was even worse than the Mingyue Xue that they had claimed to have embarrassed the Southern Continentâ¦
When Wang Chong came out, his expression was extremely hard to see. At this moment, he felt his face burn.
Previously, many people had been praising them. These Chosen, who were ranked in the top twenty of the Heaven Rankings, were not easily able to ascend to the 80th and 90th levels. It was even possible to ascend to the top.
But nowâ¦â¦ He slapped his face.
Before he ascended the tower, every one of them was more powerful than the others. They thought that they could easily climb forty to fifty floors, or even sixty to seventy floors. In the end, most of them didnât exceed forty floorsâ¦Â·
Even Wang Chong, who was ranked 15th on the Heaven Rankings, barely managed to ascend the Main Rankingsâ¦
âWang Zhong, in any case, youâre the 15th on the Heaven Rankings, and youâve only ascended to the fifty-second level. Itâs simply embarrassing our Heaven Region.â At the side, Qin Tian Ge chuckled and mocked him.
He had some problems with Wang Zhong, so he naturally couldnât help but ridicule him when he got this opportunity.
Wang Chongâs expression became even uglier as he snorted coldly.
âI hope you wonât embarrass my Heaven Region anymore.
âDonât worry, Iâm not trash like you.â With that, Qin Tiange walked towards the gate of the Divine Refining Pagoda.
But not long after, Qin Tiange⦠also came out.
Moreover, his ranking on the Main Rankings was inferior to Wang Chongâs!
He was also defeated by the 52nd level gatekeeper!
At this moment. Almost everyone realized.
It wasnât that they were too weak, but that this Divine Refining Pagoda was too abnormal!
âI thought you were so powerful. I didnât expect you to be inferior to me, trash!â Wang Zhong sneered without any politeness.
âWang Zhong, youâre courting death!â Qin Tiange was a little angry from embarrassment.
âFairy Cai has moved.â
âHuang Tian Shengzi has also moved!â
At this moment, a wave of clamor suddenly sounded from the crowd.
Huang Tian Shengzi and Cai Lianyi entered the Divine Refining Pagoda at almost the same time.
While everyone was looking forward to it, they couldnât help but feel nervous.
Huang Tian Shengzi, number one on the Heaven Rankings, Cai Lianyi, number three on the Heaven Rankings.
These two could be considered the final trump cards of their Heaven Region.
If even the two of themâ¦
However, the two of them let out a sigh of relief.
Cai Lianyi easily ascended the main rankings, moreover surpassing Qin Tiange, Wang Chong, and the others. In the end, she reached the fifty-eighth level, ranking above seventy thousand.
The other Huang Tian Shengzi ascended to the 60th level, ranking fifty thousand.
Even though they hadnât reached the 80th and 90th floors or reached the top as they had predicted at the beginning, it was already quite good.
However, everyone who had ascended the Divine Refining Pagoda knew just how perverse Cai Lianyi and Huang Tian Shengzi when they reached the fifty-eighth and sixty levels.
âHu â¦â¦â
âFifty-eight levelsâ¦â
After Cai Lianyi left the Divine Refining Pagoda, she glanced at the top of the main rankings, her ranking, and then at the top ten people.
She reached the fifty-eighth level, she knew how difficult it was.
She could not imagine how those people who had ascended to the seventieth level in the top ten had managed to do so?
Especially the one named Xuan Yi who ascended to the top?
Not only that, this person⦠were they from the Southern Continent?
âProfound Sword Sectâ¦â¦ Iâve never heard of it before nor do I know what region itâs from.â
This person was simply too terrifying.
Apart from him, the highest-ranked person was only at the 79th level. However, he was at the 99th level!
