War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Duan Ling Tian knew how difficult it was for intermediate Lords of Gods to stabilize their cultivation bases in a short time. Without the help of the Five Divine Elements, he would not have been able to completely stabilize his cultivation base so quickly. For others, it would be impossible to achieve without some kind of fortuitous encounter.

Similarly, the others from the Pure Yang Sect were also shocked. The only person who was not shocked was Yuan Han Jin, Yang Qian Ye’s master.

“Yang Qian Ye is so strong?”

“Yang Qian Ye really helped us vent our anger!”

“You’re amazing, Yang Qian Ye! You almost killed him!”

“That’s right! Although an intermediate Emperor of Gods was keeping watch, you still managed to fatally injure your opponent from the Alliance of Benevolence and Justice!”

The dark clouds that loomed over the young disciples of the Pure Yang Sect dispersed after Yang Qian Ye defeated Bai Ming Zhong.

Ye Ying Cai and Yun Ye Wei were not only surprised, but their expressions turned solemn as well. After all, they did not pay attention to Yang Qian Ye previously, and he suddenly became as strong as they were. Moreover, they were not completely confident they could defeat Yang Qian Ye. It was only natural that their emotions were complicated.

With this fight, Yang Qian Ye was thrust into the spotlight, making his mark in the Seven Mansions Feast.

“Yang Qian Ye…”

“There’s finally an outstanding prodigy from the Pure Yang Sect’s Ping Sheng faction!”

“He’s the granddisciple of the founder of the Ping Sheng faction, Yuan Ping Sheng!”

Despite the praises, Yang Qian Ye remained calm. In fact, if one was observant enough, one could even see a hint of gloom in the depths of his eyes.

…

The following fights were uneventful.

Yun Ye Wei easily defeated his opponent as expected. Since his opponent was not from the Alliance of Benevolence and Justice, he was very restrained when he attacked.

At the end of the round, apart from the already famous prodigies from the Seven Mansions, there were more than a handful of people who stood out. They were dark horses like the Pure Yang Sect’s Yang Qian Ye and the Howling Flames Sect’s Lin Yuan.

Unlike Yang Qian Ye, Lin Yuan was the external help that the Howling Flames Sect recruited. However, since he had formally joined the Howling Flames Sect, even if people were dissatisfied, there was nothing they could do about it.

…

The revival stage for the elite group round would start the next day. Based on the first round for the selection of the rookie group, most people knew the revival stage would not be that interesting. After all, who would foolishly choose to challenge a strong opponent?

The revival stage for the elite group round ended in just a few days since the number of participants was much smaller compared to before. There were quite a few participants with above average strength who failed to enter the elite group since all the weaker participants in the elite group had been challenged.

Similar to before, Lin Dong Lai said to those who failed to advance that if they were confident about ranking in the top 30, they would be allowed to enter the elite group. However, there would be consequences if they failed to rank in the top 30. In the end, no one dared to step forward. None of them were sure they could even pass the next round, let alone rank in the top 30.

Although luck was part of one’s strength, only mediocre people would rely heavily on luck.

…

“After the elite ground round, it’ll be the Soaring Cloud Group round. It’s mostly similar to the first two rounds. The difference is that during the revival stage, those who lost in the first stage are allowed to issue up to three challenges,” Lin Dong Lai announced as he hovered in the air. He was also able to select one person to automatically enter the Soaring Cloud Group, and he chose Yang Qian Ye.

Most people sighed in relief when Yang Qian Ye was chosen. They were mostly the weaker participants. With Yang Qian Ye out of the picture, they would not have to face him. All of them were worried about ending up like Bai Ming Zhong, after all. As for the stronger participants, they did not care at all since this would not affect them. Moreover, they could also prove their strength later.

Lin Dong Lai explained the rounds in the Seven Mansions Feast again.

The Soaring Cloud Group round was also the third round of the Seven Mansions Feast. There were only 400 participants left at this time.

The elite group round originally had 800 participants, and at the end of it, there were only 400 people left.

The Soaring Cloud Group round had 400 participants, and at the end of it, there would be only 200 participants left.

The fourth round, called the Ambitious Group round, would have 100 participants at the end of it. The ranking for the top 100 participants would also be decided in this round.

Those who ranked in the top 100 would naturally be rewarded, and those who ranked in the top 30 would receive better rewards. Needless to say, those who ranked in the top ten had the best rewards.

After his explanation, Lin Dong Lai announced the start of the third round, the Soaring Cloud Group round.

Similar to the earlier two rounds, opponents would be decided based on the tokens they chose.

When Duan Ling Tian obtained his token, he discovered everyone from the Pure Yang Sect, including Zhen Ping Fan, were looking at him. The corners of his lips twitched immediately. Before Zhen Ping Fan spoke, he raised his token and imbued his Divine Energy into it. He had yet to see the word on his token, but when he saw the disappointed expression on Zhen Ping Fan’s face, he knew the word he obtained this time must have been normal. It would have been strange if he obtained another weird word for the third time.

This time, Duan Ling Tian obtained the word ‘universe’.

The others from the Pure Yang Sect looked away after they saw that Duan Ling Tian obtained a normal word.

Soon after, the Soaring Cloud Group round started.

The first few fights were boring until the Wanqi clan’s Wanqi Hong was chosen to fight Jia Mu Lin, the prodigy from the Profound Jade Mansion’s Fortune Sect.

Jia Mu Lin was one of the strongest disciples under the age of 10,000 in the Fortune Sect. His expression was solemn at this moment. Clearly, he felt the pressure of facing Wanqi Hong.

“Jia Mu Lin, I’ve heard of you. You’re rather famous,” Wanqi Hong said nonchalantly, “Do you want me to help you or are you going to surrender on your own?”

Jia Mu Lin took a deep breath before he cupped his fists together at Wanqi Hong and said, “Your reputation precedes you, Wanqi Hong. Perhaps, if you were still the strongest person under the age of 10,000 in the Eastern Ridge Mansion, I’d surrender. However, since that’s no longer the case, I’d like to test my strength against yours.”

Jia Mu Lin grinned at the end of his words.

Wanqi Hong was infuriated by the smile on Jia Mu Lin’s face. His gaze turned frosty as he said, “If you have a death wish, I’ll be more than happy to fulfill your wish!”

Wanqi Hong rushed out like raging beast as soon as Lin Dong Lai announced the start of the fight.

Meanwhile, as Jia Mu Lin stepped back, Duan Ling Tian thought to himself, “This prodigy from the Fortune Sect deliberately provoked Wanqi Hong, hoping that Wanqi Hong will make mistakes due to his anger. However, if his strength isn’t enough, he still won’t be able to defeat Wanqi Hong even if Wanqi Hong makes mistakes.”

Petty tricks and tactics were useless when faced with absolute strength, after all.
