Chapter 272: Gathering of Geniuses

Xiao Ling was somewhat surprised by Chen Xiao's gaze. She did not expect that Chen Xiao would dare to do this even though she had already demonstrated. If it were an ordinary warrior, Xiao Ling, with her hot temper, would have slapped him long ago. However, she did not see any desire in Chen Xiao's eyes. Instead, his eyes were surprisingly clear. Although Xiao Ling felt a little awkward, she still did not say much.

Chen Xiao stared at her for a few breaths before retracting his gaze: "Very strong!"

His words revealed some excitement. The stronger the opponent he competed with, the more excited he was. If they were all vulnerable, it would be boring.

Chen Xiao's unique gaze also made Xiao Ling remember him. Immediately, a smile appeared on her little face: "Interesting, I remember you!"

Then, the girl looked at Chen Xiao deeply before moving her eyes away.

The stare between the two was just a small episode. Soon, the crowd was in commotion again. This time, the commotion was even more exaggerated, as if they had encountered something incredible.

"It's Xu Xu from the Spirit Sword Sect. It is rumored that this person defeated the six-star Wu Zong many years ago. Now he is actually participating in the rookie competition. It seems that we have encountered a strong enemy."

"Humph, he is aiming for the top three. What does it have to do with you? It's good enough for you to be ranked in the top 100. He is a strong enemy. People don't even look at you."

"So what? No matter how strong he is, if he wants to compete with me for the ranking, I will not hold back."

Immediately, the moment Xu Xu came out, the Tianjiao in the field began a heated discussion, and their voices kept ringing at the foot of Tianshan Mountain.

And the initiator of all this, Xu Xu, who was the focus of everyone, was particularly aloof. He didn't even look at everyone. With a domineering momentum that looked down on everyone, he directly crossed the crowd and came to the open space, closing his eyes to rest.

When Chen Xiao heard that this person was from the Lingjian Sect, a hint of coldness appeared in his eyes.

"The pride of the Lingjian Sect? Interesting!" Immediately, Chen Xiao glanced at Xu Xu and saw through his strength. He seemed to be roughly on par with Xiao Ling before, and then he stopped paying attention.

He already had a grudge against the Lingjian Sect. Now that he met someone from the Lingjian Sect here, he didn't mind collecting some interest in advance and directly trampled this person to death here!

Finally, when Xu Xu passed by, the last focus of everyone's attention also appeared. This person was the first person that the Lord of Tianlong City mentioned to Chen Xiao before, Liu Cheng from the capital of Tianli.

When this person appeared, both Xiao Ling and Xu Xu before dimmed at this moment, as if they were suppressed by his momentum and couldn't raise their heads. Seeing this scene, everyone praised.

"As expected of Liu Cheng, he is indeed the strongest prodigy in Tianli Country. Even Miss Xiao Ling and Xu Xu are suppressed."

"He is really too strong!"

Everyone looked at Liu Cheng with awe, as if they were looking at a god walking in the world. Obviously, even though they were all prodigies from various cities, leading the way, no one dared to disobey Liu Cheng, because Liu Cheng was a god-like existence among the younger generation of Tianli Country. No one could compare with him, not even Xu Xu, who was known as the Taoist in Lingjian Sect, and not even Xiao Ling, who was trained by Tianhuo Valley as the next head!

He didn't need to pretend to be aloof, he didn't need to look down on others, he just needed to stand there quietly, and he could make everyone feel afraid and bow their heads, because he was Liu Cheng!

After Chen Xiao saw this person, a strong fighting spirit finally broke out in his eyes. This person was qualified to be his opponent and his whetstone, making him more sharp!

After the arrival of the three much-anticipated geniuses, the crowd finally fell silent again. Everyone had gathered and was waiting for the Grand Elder of Tianli Country to come out and announce the start time of the competition.

Immediately, everyone began to wait quietly. Time passed little by little. After a long time, everyone was a little impatient. Finally, an old man appeared from the space crack on the high platform.

When everyone saw this person, they hurriedly saluted: "Elder Wu!"

This person is a special elder of Tianli Country. He has a noble status and his cultivation is even more unfathomable. Therefore, even if these people are geniuses from various cities, they dare not show the slightest arrogance in front of Elder Wu.

When Chen Xiao saw the hand of this person coming out of nothingness, he was also a little alert in his heart. He smelled a sense of danger from this person. Now he can still feel this feeling. This person's martial arts cultivation is definitely at the level of martial honor.

"Huh!" In the crowd, Chen Xiao let out a long breath, feeling a little emotional. It was indeed the Tianli Kingdom, where there were hidden dragons and crouching tigers. Just one of the Grand Elders had the strength of the Martial Honor Realm. It seemed that he still underestimated the strength of these countries in the lower realm.

After Elder Wu appeared, he smiled and said immediately: "I have kept you waiting. You are all the prides of each city and the backbone of my Tianli Kingdom. I am sorry to let you wait for an old man like me."

When Elder Wu said this, everyone said they dared not. Although they were arrogant, they were not brainless. No one dared to show off in front of such a Martial Honor Realm strongman.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Elder Wu nodded as if satisfied and stopped delaying: "This time the rookie battle, the first one is to climb this Tianshan Mountain. There are 999 ladders in this mountain." , there is huge pressure in each level of the ladder, and in the end, the top 100 will advance to the next round based on ranking!"

As he spoke, he waved his sleeves and spread out a burst of spiritual power, which rippled in the space between heaven and earth, completely revealing the appearance of Tianshan Mountain in front of everyone's eyes. The coercive power within it was also unscrupulous after it was no longer restrained. was released.

After Elder Wu lifted the ban, everyone felt a chest tightness, as if there was a big mountain pressing on their hearts, and they were a little breathless. Some of the geniuses who were closer to the Tianshan Mountain were even more unbearable, and they started sweating profusely. This made everyone a little shocked. , just the pressure at the foot of the mountain has such oppressive power. If it reaches the mountain, it will definitely be a thousand times stronger than the outside world.

"The power of coercion here is extremely strong. It is a good place for training. It is naturally beneficial to endure hardship. This power of coercion can compress the spiritual power in your body and make it more refined. Even in the past few years, there have been Tianjiao climbed the mountain here and broke through directly under the pressure of coercion." Elder Wu said with a smile.

Hearing this, Chen Xiao also nodded. As a Martial God in his previous life, he naturally had some understanding of the method of tempering the power of coercion. What he said was generally true.
