Unparalleled Divine Power

However, it was too difficult to become a core disciple of Jiuzhou Martial Arts School.    

Currently, Qing Heefeiyun was only an in-name disciple.    

He wanted to become an official disciple. The lowest requirement to become an official disciple was to kill Sealing King when he reached the Good Magic Stage, and he couldn't use any treasures. For the time being, Qing Heefeiyun wouldn't be able to pass this test.    

"Mr. Qin Xiao, I'm afraid that you might become an official disciple with your current strength. There will be an examination three days later. Do you want to participate?" Qing Heefeiyun asked.    

The official disciples of Jiuzhou Martial Arts School would receive a lot of benefits.    

Being able to join a superpower like the Jiuzhou Martial Arts School was something that countless geniuses dreamt of. According to Qing Heefeiyun, some of the outstanding young men from the Qinghe County had also joined the Jiuzhou Martial Arts School.    

Among the four superpowers, the Wood Fire Palace didn't care about anything. The Ghost Pavilion of the Jiuzhou Martial Arts School and the Empyrean Goddess Divine Palace were each in charge of three continents.    

Of course, they were in charge. In fact, the three transcendent powers wouldn't directly rule the Nine Provinces. They only said that they would prioritize the absorption of disciples.    

The Xuzhou was under the jurisdiction of the Jiuzhou World. Therefore, some of the top young geniuses of the Xuzhou would be recruited by the Jiuzhou Martial Arts School first.    

However, the Ghost Pavilion had opened up all of the Nine Provinces, and it was also possible for them to steal the geniuses of the Ghost Pavilion.    

Qin Xiao nodded and said: "Becoming a disciple of the Jiuzhou Martial Arts School is naturally the best. My current cultivation has also encountered some difficulties. Joining the Jiuzhou Martial Arts School is probably my best option. "    

Qing Heefeiyun nodded his head. "Haha, that's right. No matter how good my talent is... Qing Heefeiyun nodded his head and said, haha, that's right. No matter how good your talent is, you still need good cultivation resources. If you can become a core disciple of Jiuzhou Martial Arts School, you will truly stand at the true Peak Level of Jiuzhou World. It was said that... No matter how weak a core disciple of the Jiuzhou World was... And easily become a Great Emperor. Half of them can become Supreme Lords."    

Only a Supreme Lord could stand at the true Peak Level of the Jiuzhou World.    

When Gu Lingyue found out that Qin Xiao was going to participate in the examination of the Jiuzhou Martial Arts School, she also said that she wanted to go with him.    

It had been a year since they last met, but Gu Lingyue had already reached the peak of the Good Magic Stage. However, Qin Xiao wasn't surprised. Gu Lingyue had the Five Elemental Physique, so her cultivation speed was naturally different from ordinary people.

Jiuzhou World, the Little Heaven Realm of Xin Huo.    

In the depths of an ancient and grand palace, a figure stood in front of a huge compass. The compass shone with a strange light that evolved into countless scenes. It was a very strange sight.    

The figure appeared to be a man in his fifties. He frowned slightly and wore a worried expression.    

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!    

Three figures suddenly appeared out of thin air, two men and one woman.    

A man wearing a black robe and covered in an endless dark aura unleashed endless killing intent, like a Devil God.    

In the middle was a graceful and beautiful woman. She had a peerless beauty that could make all men fall in love with her and make all women jealous. She was so beautiful that it was suffocating, and no adjectives could be used to describe her beauty.    

The last man was tall and handsome. He looked to be in his thirties. His jet black hair fell down naturally. If one looked at him from behind, they would think he was a woman.    

"I say, old man, can't you restrain your killing intent a little? Standing together with you really makes me feel uncomfortable all over." The tall and handsome man glanced at the black-clothed man and said.    

The black-clothed man only snorted coldly, causing the aura to become even colder.    

The tall and handsome man moved closer to the beautiful woman. "Sister Ice Snow is still comfortable. I really want to get close to her." As he spoke, he actually leaned on the beautiful woman.    

The beautiful woman disappeared into thin air and actually teleported to the side.    

The tall and handsome man pursed his lips: "You are so stingy, little Sister Ice and Snow. When can you be more generous? So what if I lean on you? It's not like you will lose a piece of meat. "    

The beautiful woman snorted. "Jiulee, as the master of Jiuzhou Martial Arts School and one of the four Holy Lord in Jiuzhou World, why are you still behaving like this?"    

"Haha, isn't that because you are too beautiful, sister Xue Bing? I am a Holy Lord, and you are also a Holy Lord. Isn't it normal for me to tease you? " Holy Lord Jiuli said with a smile.    

Holy Mother of Ice and Snow ignored Holy Lord Jiuli.    

The figure in front of the compass finally spoke. "I called all of you here today because I have something I want to discuss with you. Perhaps... this concerns the life and death of our Jiuzhou World."    

Hearing this, Holy Lord Jiuli and the other two immediately quieted down.    

Holy Lord Jiuli said, "Palace Master Xia, Deduction, you are the one who suffered the most. What kind of misfortune does our Jiuzhou World have? You can even guess it. What is going on this time?"    

Palace Master Xia said, "Recently, the activities of the Abyss Devils have become more and more frequent. The Desolate Beast Race, the Demon Race, you Ming and the Sea Race have also become restless. They have created some trouble for us at the border. Originally, it was nothing much. These foreign races are not like our Human Clan. It's very difficult to truly unite them. Besides, even if they could really unite... Our Human Clan can also deal with them."    

"It's just that the abyssals are an uncertain factor."    

"They have been hiding for far too long. They have settled down for tens of millions of years. We have no idea how strong the Abyss Devil Clan has grown."    

"My recent deductions have faintly indicated that a great catastrophe is coming to our Jiuzhou World. I'm afraid that this catastrophe will be initiated by the abyssals."    

Vast Tribulation -    

Hearing these two words, the three Holy Lord couldn't help but frown deeply.    

The so-called calamity was truly related to the existence of life and death.    

Holy Lord Jiuli said with a serious expression, "Palace Master Xia, how should we deal with it?"    

Palace Master Xia said, "There is no other way. We can only wait and see. We just need to make all the preparations. Counting the time, it should have been close to a hundred years since the Jiuzhou Mountain River Ranking last time, right? How about this, we'll hold another Jiuzhou Mountain River Ranking right away. "    

" All four of us should absorb a few more young men from Young Master Tian's Sect and properly nurture them. Hopefully, a few more Lords will come out, and we'll have more strength to protect ourselves. "    

"According to my deductions, the catastrophe will probably erupt within a hundred years, so we don't have much time left. This time, let's not think about resources anymore. Let's not consider the resources invested in nurturing us. "    

Holy Lord Jiuli and the other two nodded their heads.    

Soon, a piece of news was spread across the entire Jiuzhou World through the people of the four transcendent powers.    

After all, those who were slightly stronger had joined the four major powers, and very few of them hadn't joined the four major powers. Therefore, the news could easily spread across the entire Jiuzhou World.    

------    

Qinghe County, qinghe Prefecture.    

Qin Xiao and Qing Heefeiyun rushed to a courtyard and saw Golden Spear King.    

"Father, why did you call us here so urgently?" Qing Heefeiyun asked worriedly.    

Just now, his father had informed him to bring Qin Xiao here immediately, so Qing Heefeiyun guessed that something must have happened to Qin Family.    

Golden Spear King said with a smile. "It's a good thing. To you all, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity."    

Qin Xiao and Qing Heefeiyun were slightly stunned. They had puzzled expressions on their faces.    

Golden Spear King explained with a smile, "In a month's time, the Jiuzhou Mountain River Ranking will be held. This is the first time in your lives that you will show your true strength. This is a good opportunity for you to soar."    

"Jiuzhou Mountain River Ranking!" Qin Xiao and Qing Heefeiyun exclaimed at the same time.    

Qin Xiao had learned a lot about the high level things in Jiuzhou World, so he naturally had some knowledge about Jiuzhou Mountain River Ranking.    

The Jiuzhou Mountain River Ranking was just a name. It was not really a ranking list.    

It was a great battle to select the geniuses of the Nine Provinces, a great battle that could gather all the top geniuses of the Nine Provinces to participate.    

Those who could shine brilliantly in the Jiuzhou Mountain River Ranking were the true geniuses that stood at the peak of the Jiuzhou World. Such a figure would basically have limitless achievements, or even world-shaking achievements.    

Those who could perform well in the Jiuzhou Mountain River Ranking would be absorbed and nurtured by the major powers of the Jiuzhou World, and they would become dragons in a single leap.    

However, Qin Xiao now knew that the true leaders behind the Jiuzhou Mountain River Ranking were the four transcendent powers.    

In the past, the top 36 geniuses of the Jiuzhou Mountain River Ranking would be recruited by the four great powers. As for the others who performed well, they would be recruited by the other major powers in Jiuzhou World.    

Apart from the four major transcendent powers, there were also ten other major powers in Jiuzhou World, which were known to the public.    

After all, few people knew about the four major powers. Anyone below the Good Magic Stage didn't have the right to know about them. Even those at the Good Magic Stage didn't know much about it.    

The Jiuzhou Mountain River Ranking was publicly acknowledged as the place where all the young geniuses in the Jiuzhou World could stand out.    

However, the time of the Jiuzhou Mountain River Ranking being held was not certain. Normally, it would only be held once every hundred years, but it was not fixed once every hundred years.    

In a short period of time, it would be held once every sixty years. In a long period of time, it would only be held once every three hundred years.    

The last time it was held was eighty-six years ago.    

"Haha, Mr. Qin Xiao, it seems like our luck is pretty good. We actually encountered a Jiuzhou Mountain River Ranking. I thought you would participate in the Jiuzhou Martial Arts School's examination, but it seems like there is no need for you to do so for the time being. We should focus our energy on the Jiuzhou Mountain River Ranking. If we can perform well in the Jiuzhou Mountain River Ranking, then we will be able to make a name for ourselves. "    

"We have gathered all the top geniuses of the Jiuzhou World. This is the stage that we should have. Just thinking about it makes me feel excited."    

Qing Heefeiyun smiled.    

Qin Xiao also nodded and smiled. "Yes, this is indeed a rare opportunity. However, you have to hold onto a good opportunity. "    

"Although we're not bad, we can't say for sure if we look at the entire Jiuzhou World. There are too many geniuses."    

"Haha, that's also a chance to broaden our horizons." Qing Heefeiyun's mentality was pretty good.    

After getting this news, Qin Xiao and Qing He Fei had made some preparations. After Gu Lingyue heard about it, she also wanted to participate.    

Three days later, Golden Spear King accompanied Qin Xiao and the other two to the Zhoucheng of Xuzhou. There would be a preliminary selection there. If they could pass the preliminary selection... If they failed the semi-final, they would be eliminated.    

Golden Spear King's personal company would reduce some unnecessary troubles. After all, the Heavenly Feather Villa still had their eyes on Qin Xiao. This touched Qin Xiao's heart.
