Chapter 768: Chapter 655: Yue Country Tournament (Seeking Subscriptions)_2
These puppet beasts, primarily use Tier Two refining materials, Deep Sea Iron, making them extremely solid.
The surface of the puppet beasts is engraved with numerous Dao patterns.
Each puppet beast possesses combat power comparable to a cultivator in the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
Defeating three puppet beasts is not particularly noteworthy.
Amongst the three thousand sect disciples from Yue Country participating in the competition, most can accomplish this.
However, ones like Shen Xuan who are this fast, are exceptionally rare.
"Arena Eight, Shen Ruocheng wins."
Upon hearing the announcement from the referee, Shen Xuan respectfully bowed and stepped down from Arena Eight.
He remained expressionless.
In the Taiyi Sect area.
Including Tang Roulan, seventy-nine Taiyi Sect disciples gazed at Shen Xuan with newfound respect.
"I’m going back to the inn to rest."
Shen Xuan took a glance at the Treasure Mirror in the sky.
Today was only the first round.
No need to waste time here.
"Ah! Senior Brother Shen, you’re leaving? Not going to watch a bit?"
"No. I’m tired."
Shen Xuan casually fabricated an excuse.
Watching performances of this level is a complete waste of time.
He walked out of the square, composed and unhurried.
On the podium.
A Sect Leader said to the Taiyi Sect Leader: "Fellow Daoist Tang, your disciple from Arena Eight is not simple."
"Where? Just average."
"Haha, Fellow Daoist Tang, you’re too modest. Who is he?"
"Shen Ruocheng, an Immortal Seed adopted by the Huang Family of Tianya Mountain."
"Is he engaged?"
"Hmm, there’s an intention. After participating in this Spirit Stream Secret Realm, his decision will be finalized."
"What a pity..."
The Sect Leader remarked with some regret.
...
Evening.
At the Xuanfa Sect Inn.
The participating disciples of Taiyi Sect gradually returned to the inn.
Tang Roulan brusquely knocked on Shen Xuan’s door.
"The results were decent. Our Taiyi Sect had fifty-eight people pass the first round."
Shen Xuan kept his face cold, like frost.
At Taiyi Sect, he maintained an aloof image, keeping people at a distance.
Apart from Tang Roulan, no one interacted with him.
"I spent ten Spirit Stones to purchase the internal intelligence."
Tang Roulan took out a Jade Scroll.
"The rules for tomorrow’s second round."
"Thank you."
Shen Xuan accepted the Jade Scroll.
"See you tomorrow."
Then, he closed the door.
Outside the door, Tang Roulan’s smiling face instantly froze.
Moments later, she shook her head with a bitter smile.
At this moment, behind her, Senior Brother Liu from Taiyi Sect said: "Junior Sister Tang, is Junior Brother Shen alright?"
"He’s fine."
"Giving him the intelligence on the rules is sufficient."
"Yes. Senior Brother Liu, I’m going back to my room to rest."
"Alright."
Senior Brother Liu watched Tang Roulan’s silhouette, shaking his head with a bitter smile.
His expression was identical to Tang Roulan’s moments ago.
...
The next day.
The number of sect disciples from Yue Country entering the square was noticeably reduced.
Approximately two thousand remain.
This means a third were eliminated in the first round.
"The Immortal Dao is distant; our cultivation means defying nature; it’s tough!"
One participating sect disciple sighed, shaking his head.
His words resonated with many.
In this Secret Realm competition, many are just participating for the experience.
They themselves are aware of it.
Not long after.
The Xuanfa Sect True Master announced.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the second round officially begins."
In the Treasure Mirror above, the rules for the second round of the competition appeared.
Also quite simple.
On each arena, there is a Three-Headed Silver Wolf.
Wind attribute, Tier Two Upper Grade, with three wolf heads that can simultaneously spray Wind Blade.
These ten Three-Headed Silver Wolves have been meticulously bred by the Xuanfa Sect.
Quite intelligent.
The Yue Country sect disciples must fight the Three-Headed Silver Wolf in the arena and persist for one hundred breaths of time to pass.
The rules were identical to the intelligence Jade Scroll Tang Roulan gave him last night.
Some sect disciples from Yue Country were well-prepared.
They do not hope to defeat the Three-Headed Silver Wolf.
Instead, they have devised various strategies, prepared defensive magical treasures, and multiple talismans.
Hoping to persist under the attack of the Three-Headed Silver Wolf for one hundred breaths.
Shen Xuan did not think much.
He was among the first batch to go on stage again.
"Shen Ruocheng, hold back a bit. These Three-Headed Silver Wolves are not easy for the Xuanfa Sect to breed."
Shen Xuan was slightly surprised.
A Divine Soul voice transmission came to his ears.
It was from a certain sect’s True Pill True Master serving as the referee.
Shen Xuan looked towards the referee and bowed respectfully.
"Yes."
"The performance starts after ten breaths!"
As time arrived.
Shen Xuan glared at the Three-Headed Silver Wolf.
His eyes emanated the intent of a Divine Dragon.
The originally roaring Three-Headed Silver Wolf instantly shivered in fear.
Tucking its tail, shrinking its body, it collapsed on the arena, unable to move.
A stench of urine filled the air.
The Three-Headed Silver Wolf was scared into urinating, losing control.
"Shen Ruocheng wins."
After announcing the result, the referee scrutinized Shen Xuan repeatedly with Divine Sense.
At this moment, Shen Xuan sealed the Ice Technique Golden Core.
Genuine Foundation Establishment Seventh Layer Fire Technique.
Even the True Pill True Master, within two yards, could not detect anything unusual about Shen Xuan.
Earlier.
He sensed Shen Xuan’s gaze was extremely peculiar.
Perhaps he practiced some kind of Pupil Technique.
He, being a True Pill True Master, even felt a strange sense of trepidation.
As if he were confronting some kind of unstoppable prehistoric fierce beast.
To look again at the state of the Three-Headed Silver Wolf.
Evidently, it was suppressed by bloodline.
But it faced merely a common Foundation Establishment Seventh Layer Fire Cultivator.
Even if practiced a powerful Pupil Technique.
How could it suppress a Tier Two Upper Grade Three-Headed Silver Wolf to this extent?
In the line of sight.
Shen Xuan, as yesterday.
After bowing, expressionless, walked off the arena.
He spoke to Tang Roulan at Taiyi Sect.
Straightway, he walked out of the square.
He was completely indifferent to the matches in the arena.
If not for a peculiar personality, then he must have absolute confidence.
To pass the selection competition and secure a spot in the Secret Realm.
