Unparalleled Divine Power

"Then what do you mean?" Qin Xiao said coldly.    

Xu Jingtian said, "Nothing. I just want you to know who is the strongest here."    

Qin Xiao had to admit that Xu Jingtian was indeed very strong. He did have the right to be arrogant.    

Although there was no real comparison, in fact, most of the people in Xuzhou thought that Xu Jingtian was the number one person in the younger generation, the number one expert. No one even dared to say how strong he was.    

However, five years ago, Xu Jingtian killed a one-step Sealing King with a single sword strike, and his name had shaken the entire Xuzhou.    

After five years of cultivation, it was hard to imagine how much accumulation Xu Jingtian had accumulated.    

Qin Xiao also knew that with his current strength, he was still slightly inferior to Xu Jingtian.    

After all, Xu Jingtian also had the Ancient Thaumaturgy, and Xu Jingtian had a special physique. In this aspect, he had an advantage over Qin Xiao.    

As for the Profound Meaning, there was a rumor that Xu Jingtian had mastered the High-grade Profound Truth, but whether it was true or not, no one knew. However, Qin Xiao felt that the possibility might be higher.    

Besides, Xu Jingtian was a disciple of the Xu Family in the ancient domain. He had probably cultivated a Saint level secret technique. All in all, Xu Jingtian's strength must have reached an unimaginable level.    

Given Qin Xiao's current strength, he was afraid that it wouldn't be enough.    

But if he was bullied by someone, how could Qin Xiao lower his head?    

"You mean you are the strongest here?" Qin Xiao's words were full of sarcasm.    

Xu Jingtian smiled and looked at Qin Xiao. "What? You don't think so?"    

Qin Xiao said without showing any weakness. "Yes, I don't think so."    

Xu Jingtian did not get angry. Instead, he laughed. "So you mean you want to challenge me?"    

Qin Xiao snorted and said, "So you think that I do not dare? So what if I challenge you?"    

"Hahaha, good, interesting. For so long, no one has ever dared to speak to me like that. The person who dares to challenge me is not even born yet. Interesting, since you are so ignorant... I'll see you on the Jiuzhou Mountain River Ranking. I'd like to see if you can kill your way into the Jiuzhou Mountain River Ranking." Xu Jingtian said.    

Qin Xiao was too lazy to say anything else. In that case, let's meet in the Jiuzhou Mountain River Ranking.    

Even if his current strength was slightly weaker, given Qin Xiao's unyielding character, he would never lower his head so easily.    

No matter how big the challenge was, Qin Xiao wasn't afraid of it.    

"Humph! Humph! This Xu Jingtian is too self-righteous. Who is he? As long as his talent was good, he would be amazing! Seriously, why is he looking down on me? It's just that he has a better family background." After sending Xu Jingtian away, Gu Lingyue angrily defended Qin Xiao for his injustice.    

Qin Xiao did not mind and smiled. "Forget it. Some people are used to being arrogant, so they naturally cannot tolerate sand in their eyes."    

"If you want to blame someone, blame me for being in the limelight in Xuzhou City recently. I've overshadowed some people's limelight, so naturally, I'm not in a good mood."    

"Strength is the way to prove everything. Since he has given me a challenge, I naturally won't shrink back. Fortune and misfortune are often connected. There are some things that you can't judge whether he is good or bad until the end. Perhaps this is also a catalyst for me. "    

Gu Lingyue nodded," En, do your best. I am still very confident in you. "    

"Although you may not be able to beat Xu Jingtian now, you still have time and opportunity. In the preliminaries, you have already made many breakthroughs. I believe that in the final selection, you will also be able to rise up. Your potential for growth is definitely greater than theirs. "    

" Haha, don't praise me anymore, or else I will really be proud of myself. Let's all work together, let's kill the Jiuzhou Mountain River Ranking together!" Qin Xiao said with a smile.    

Gu Lingyue nodded and smiled like a flower.    

A supreme pressure suddenly descended and everyone looked over. Emperor Ouyang walked over in a green robe and swept his gaze across. A kind smile appeared on his face as he said, "All of you, come with me. All of you are the geniuses that stand out among the young warriors of Xuzhou. All of you represent the new strength of Xuzhou. The competition for the Jiuzhou Mountain River Ranking would be incomparably intense. I wish all of you in advance that you will be able to obtain good results. You will be able to kill your way into the Jiuzhou Mountain River Ranking. "    

"However, it doesn't matter even if all of you are eliminated. The door of the Jiuzhou Martial Arts School will be open for all of you. I will leave the quota of elite disciples for you all."    

Emperor Ouyang was the highest person-in-charge of Jiuzhou Martial Arts School's Xuzhou. Naturally, he wouldn't let go of the geniuses of Xuzhou.    

The geniuses who could pass the preliminaries were all qualified to become the elite disciples of the Jiuzhou Martial Arts School.    

In terms of recruiting disciples, the Jiuzhou Martial Arts School had always had a unique advantage.    

Emperor Ouyang waved his hand and opened the Gate of Void. A force wrapped around Qin Xiao and the others, then they entered the Gate of Void.    

Very quickly, Qin Xiao walked out of the Gate of Void. However, the scenery in front of him had changed.    

As soon as he came out, Qin Xiao and the others felt a terrifying aura filling the space, making them feel a strong sense of oppression.    

This was a desolate land. The sky was filled with a pale white airflow, forming a natural barrier that covered the sky and the earth.    

It was a flat stone land that stretched as far as the eye could see. It was as if an incomparably huge stone had been cut flat.    

There was nothing in the surroundings. However, one could vaguely see some scattered stone pillars in the distance. They were in ruins and looked even more ancient and desolate.    

"Where is this place?"    

Qin Xiao and the others were puzzled.    

Emperor Ouyang said, "This is the Copper Sparrow Stage of the ancient secret realm. It is also the final choice this time."    

"Copper Sparrow Stage?"    

It was obvious that no one knew about this ancient secret realm. Even the experienced and knowledgeable Xu Jingtian had a puzzled look on his face.    

"This secret realm is a secret of our Jiuzhou World. It's normal that you don't know about it. This was the first time he had placed the final selection here. You should feel fortunate. However, there is one thing I have to remind you... You cannot tell anyone about everything here. Remember, it is anyone. This secret cannot be leaked, Are you clear?" Emperor Ouyang said.    

Everyone nodded. Regarding the secret of the Jiuzhou World, it was no joke.    

If he dared to leak it, he would surely die.    

Emperor Ouyang scanned the surroundings and said, "It seems like we have arrived a little early. We are the first batch to arrive here."    

There were a total of nine preliminaries in Nine Provinces, and Xuzhou was only one of them. There were also eight others.    

Each continent had twelve spots. In total, there were a total of 108 spots to compete for the final Jiuzhou Mountain River Ranking.    

Only 36. In other words, only one of the three could kill his way into the Jiuzhou Mountain River Ranking.    

This probability did not sound small.    

However, one must know that those who could stand here would be able to do so. They were all top geniuses, and none of them were easy to deal with.    

Thus, the difficulty was naturally extremely terrifying.    

"Emperor, just what kind of background does this Copper Sparrow Stage have? Why is it empty here, and there doesn't seem to be anything here? Is there anything special about it?" Xu Jingtian asked boldly.    

Emperor Ouyang was a friendly man. He looked at Xu Jingtian. Of course there is something special about it. Otherwise, I wouldn't have chosen this place for the final selection. Copper Sparrow Stage. It is a place of cultivation left behind by an ancient deity. Although it has already been destroyed, our Human Clan has still obtained a lot of benefits from it. "    

"Letting you all carry out the final selection here is actually giving you a good opportunity. If you can grasp this opportunity well, it will be a great opportunity. "    

" Whether or not you can grasp it will not depend on your own luck. "    

"The trial this time will be filled with countless unknowns and dangers. Even you will die inside if you are not careful."    

" I can tell you in advance that the trial this time will be more difficult than the past, and the danger will be greater than the past. Normally, the final selection would not have any life-threatening situations, but it was different this time. Therefore, it's best for you all to stay alert and not die here. That would be a pity."    

What - - -    

Emperor Ouyang's words had really shocked everyone.    

According to the previous years, the final selection was absolutely safe.    

After all, those who could make it into the final selection were also top geniuses. A figure like this would have a very high chance of becoming a Great Emperor if they were properly nurtured.    

If one of them died, that would be the loss of Human Clan.    

However, the test this time was so cruel and strict. It had to give people some motivation.    

Qin Xiao was also secretly surprised. This was actually the cultivation ground of the ancient gods. This meant that World God's spirit really existed.    

What kind of existence was a god?    

A wave of spatial fluctuation was transmitted. A few figures walked out from the void. The one in the lead was a tall old man. He was wearing a purple robe and the aura was incomparably cold, causing people to shiver in fear.    

"Brother Purple Crystal, you're here!" Emperor Ouyang greeted him with a smile.    

The purple-robed man was the person in charge of the Jiuzhou Martial Arts School in Yangzhou.    

The Nine Provinces of the World were divided into three large sections. The Xuzhou, yangzhou, and Jingzhou belonged to the Jiuzhou Martial Arts School, so the Jiuzhou Martial Arts School was in charge of the preliminary selection. The team that came would also be in charge of the Jiuzhou Martial Arts School.    

The Jizhou, dragon Palace, and Qingzhou belonged to the Ghost Pavilion. The Yuzhou, liang Province, and Yong Province were under the management of the Mystic Maiden Divine Palace.    

Purple Crystal Great Sovereign replied coldly and did not speak much with Emperor Ouyang. It seemed like their relationship was not very good.    

The twelve geniuses behind Amethyst Sovereign also looked at Qin Xiao and the others.    

"Eh?" Qin Xiao and Gu Lingyue's eyes quickly fell on a figure. When the figure saw Qin Xiao and Gu Lingyue, he was stunned. He immediately grinned and walked over.    

"Mr. Chunjie, why are you here?" Gu Lingyue blinked and looked at the person in surprise.    

It was not someone else, but Mr. Chunjie.    

Ever since he left the Imperial City, Qin Xiao had never seen Mr. Chunjie again. It had been a few years.    

Qin Xiao was really surprised to see Mr. Chunjie. He never thought that after not seeing Mr. Chunjie for a few years, Mr. Chunjie would actually be here.    

His strength had also grown to such an extent?    

That's not right. I saw Brother Linjie earlier. He was still very weak. How could he have grown to such an extent all of a sudden?    

This really puzzled Qin Xiao.
