yuan little bastard either ate the wrong medicine or something. Not only is he not afraid of being punished for killing Meng Du team leader, but he also wants to have a life-and-death battle with Tong..."Master Zhao, Master Yanshan, what are you doing!"

The Heavenly Palace Master was furious. He never expected these two to be so…

Zhao Pingfan smiled and said, “Such a prodigious talent, we naturally wouldn’t want to miss out. We naturally want to recruit him.”

"What about the bet!" The Heavenly Hall Master questioned again.

Yan Miao said: "Let's just keep the bet going. These two things aren't mutually exclusive."

The entire audience was silent.

Can this be done

Could you two please be a little more reserved

Fang Chen was also a little surprised, but after he came to his senses, he clasped his hands together and said: "Thank you, two seniors, for your kindness. However, the junior has become accustomed to laziness, so I'm afraid I have to decline."

What is the sect

Never mind.

Whether it was Tiān Yǔ Shén Zōng or the previous Yù Shòu Zōng, they were extremely opposed to joining other sects.

"Oh, that's a shame."

Zhao Pingfan said regretfully.

Yan Miao was not surprised. He said, "Fang Xiaoyou, if you have time, you can come to my Jihua Shen Shan for a visit. It's guaranteed to be several times better than this Tiansxue Sheng Zong."

Zhao Pingfan immediately became unhappy when he heard this: "Your Jihuo Divine Mountain is just a volcano, erupting constantly and making such a racket. Who gave you the guts to compare it to my Tianshe Holy Sect"

"Tch, your Tiansheng Sect is all white with snow everywhere. Be careful, too much humidity might cause high blood pressure."

"That's something common folk would do. How could we cultivators possibly! This is slander! Your decrepit volcano, so dry and withered, be careful you don't age too quickly!"

These two started arguing, which shocked everyone into silence.

"Master Sect Leader, Mountain Master, now is the Nine Regions Grand Assembly.

In the end, it was Zhao Tong beside them who reminded them, and the two only snorted coldly before stopping their argument.

Zhao Tong was already accustomed to this kind of scene.

They rose together, from their youth they were pitted against each other, a rivalry that has never ended.

Zhao Tong, seeing this, announced, "Alright, time is up. The arena battle begins now. The top one thousand contestants, please go to the central plaza."

In the center of the plaza stood a hundred colossal platforms, each crafted from the most durable Yuan Qingtian stone.

Upon hearing Zhao Tong's order, the top thousand surged onto the stage.

They were able to stand out from tens of thousands of disciples, it would not be an exaggeration to say that they were the most talented among the younger generation in the nine states.

And among them, the disciples of the top three domains' most powerful forces, such as Tianxue Holy Sect, Jihuo Divine Mountain, and Tianshen Hall, are the most numerous.

Almost 70% of cultivators are located in the Upper Three Realms, while the remaining 30% reside in the Middle and Lower Three Realms.

Fang Chen naturally also stepped onto the platform, and he was also the most dazzling presence in the entire venue.

Even figures like Nianji, Jianhuo, Bai Bai, and Zhao Shimei, who are all top-tier, don't shine as brightly.

Zhao Shimai, Lin Xueren, and Luo Yuer wanted to come over, but they were glared back by Fang Chen.

Next, he will stand against Kyushu. Under these special circumstances, if contact can be avoided, it should be avoided.

Lin Xueyan and Luo Yun'er naturally understood Fang Chen's intentions, so they obediently retreated.

Joe Shi Mae's lips pursed in displeasure, but she didn't move forward.

Now she lacks the former pride of being the first genius in Luotian Domain. She almost follows Fang Chen's words without question.

Even if Fang Chen proposed something even more outrageous, Zhao Shimei probably wouldn't refuse anymore.

Zhao Tong naturally saw this scene unfold. Seeing his proud and stubborn daughter become so docile in front of Fang Chen, a mix of emotions stirred within him.

His daughter never listens to him on a normal day, yet now she is so obedient to a man she barely knows.

The old saying is true, a married daughter is like water that's spilled before it even leaves the pot. She can't wait to turn on her own family.

He could only let out a sigh and stop looking.

Immediately, he announced, “Since everyone has arrived, let's begin.”

The next moment, the ranking lights in the sky flashed, and streaks of rankings shot down towards the thousand people below, landing on their chests.

Upon looking down, everyone discovered it was a number.

...and the numbers correspond to their ranking on the charts.

Zhao Tong said: "Rankings will determine your opponents in battle. The first-ranked fighter will fight the 1,000th-ranked fighter, the second-ranked fighter will fight the 999th-ranked fighter, and so on."

As soon as these words were uttered, those geniuses who had previously been lucky enough to enter the ring battle were instantly dumbfounded.

As usual, the ranking for the platform battles is mixed up before the final rankings are announced.

I didn't expect this Kyushu Assembly to be different from usual, but to use this method instead.

However, thinking about it makes sense. That kind of random arrangement would occasionally result in the first facing the second, eliminating top talents early on or leaving both sides battered and bruised.

But the very first victory, fought for tooth and nail, became meaningless. After all, there were no benefits to obtaining the first place in such a haphazard manner.

But this kind of first battle, first thousand people, can instead arouse others' fighting spirit.

It's just that Tiansxue Shengzong didn't say in advance, which is a bit too much of a pitfall.

But this is also the consistent style of Tiansxue Holy Sect, everyone has become accustomed to it.

Fang Chen glanced at his ranking, fifteenth place.

"So high!"

He was somewhat surprised that during the Snow Secret Realm, he didn't care about his ranking, as long as he entered the top thousand.

But I didn't expect it to be so tall. It seems that the people I killed in the secret realm weren't simple at all.

Fifteen is nothing special.

Suddenly, a strange and eerie voice rang out.

Fang Chen looked up and saw a man in white clothes, with white hair and white eyebrows. It was Bai Bai.

Bai Baishou held a folding fan, his expression arrogant.

while his ranking was fifth, only following those top-tier prodigies like Nian Ji.

"Kid, although you've reached 99% in Dao fusion, in the face of an absolute gap in realms, you're still as good as dead."

He stood proudly, looking down upon Fang Chen.

That graceful and imposing figure immediately attracted the admiration of many.

"So handsome!"

The enthralling voices came from all directions in the west, and most people thought Bai Bajian was incredibly handsome!

At that time, Fang Chen was going against the Jiuzhou state, but Jiuzhou had no way to deal with him.

But now Bai Bai is looking down on Fang Chen! Isn't this saying that Bai Bai is even more dazzling and eye-catching than Fang Chen!

Bai Bai felt the worshiping gaze of the people of the Western Zhou Dynasty, and her heart swelled with pride.

He wants to crush the most dazzling star under his feet and make himself the most dazzling existence!

Let everything Fang Chen has done before become his honor!

As long as he defeats Fangchen! Then, he will become the most dazzling new star in the Nine States!

But just as he was pleased, Fang Chen asked in puzzlement, "Who are you"

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire room fell silent.

and Bai Bai instantly froze in place.

"Pfft"

Not far away, Zhao Shimai couldn't help but burst into laughter. The people of Xi Zhou also had strange expressions and tried their best to hold back their laughter.

But laughter is contagious, and soon others couldn't help but laugh along.

For a moment, the entire arena was filled with jeers.

Think about it, you see someone as a rival, assuming they see you the same way.

After you've dropped a harsh word, you realize that the other person doesn't take you seriously at all.

This is a very embarrassing thing for a monk.

At this moment, Bai Bai is like this.

He was literally kicked from the peak by Fang Chen, landing on the ground in a terrible state.

Bai Bai's face was no longer white, but purple-tinged. This was from anger.

He glared angrily at Fang Chen, his folding fan waving in a gust of wind that erupted and charged towards Fang Chen.

Fang Chen let out a cold snort, radiating an aura of power without anger. The demonic energy surrounding him erupted, effortlessly shattering the might of the wind.

"Well, are you going to do it now" he said coldly.

Bai Baiyin said with a somber expression: "What's the harm in taking action Who among us is his opponent! I want to be the first one to fight him!"

As long as Fang Chen is killed, he will surely become the most dazzling existence in this battle!

Even if we don't win first place, we will surely become famous throughout the nine states!

If Fang Chen met others first, he would have missed his chance to become famous.

Zhao Tong frowned and shouted, "Bai Bai! Withdraw!"

But Bai Bai was unwilling to give up!

He gritted his teeth and said, "Elder Zhao! He humiliated me like this! I won't accept it!"

Fang Chen said speechless, "I was just asking who you are. How did I humiliate you"

But

He continued, "Since you want to fight me in the first match, I'll grant your wish."

Please allow us to be together.

He respectfully said to Zhao Tong.s, the Sword Demon Blood will run rampant and wreak havoc on his insides, leaving him either dead or crippled.He naturally knew that such a breakthrough was fraught with risk, but to become powerful,...
