Legend of Swordsman

After all, resources were limited and could only be used to cultivate elites.

It was impossible to include everyone.

Therefore, they had to compete for opportunities and rankings.

The top two thousand trial participants were guaranteed to become Inheritors of Qishen Temple.

The top ten thousand trial participants would also enter the Four Great Halls.

Each of them had a bright future.

This was the goal they were competing for.

However, the remaining trial participants were no longer satisfied with just being Inheritors.

They wanted to become the direct disciples of the Universe Master of the Seventh Tribulation realm.

To cultivate the strongest path.

In the trial world, within a range of thousands of miles, the sound of battle cries arose.

The number of participants continuously decreased.

But there were also trial participants who began to rise at this time.

For example, Shen Jian and Ji Tang.

At this time, the combat power they displayed could already place them in the top one hundred.

This made Jian Wushuang very pleased.

It proved that their progress had not halted despite the decreasing number of participants.

Following this trend, it wouldn’t be long before they surpassed the people ahead of them.

Of course, the one ranked first, Wan Shan, was indeed too terrifying.

His realm far exceeded that of many trial participants.

Anyone who faced him couldn’t withstand a single punch from him.

This terrifying combat power made no one dare to approach him.

Fortunately, Wan shan had collected one billion tokens and was too lazy to bully those trial participants.

As the last person was eliminated.

The top one thousand trial participants officially emerged.

Buzz!

After a long, resonant bell sounded.

The surrounding barriers instantly disappeared.

The one thousand trial participants were also teleported to the center of the square.

Next, there would be arena battles.

This would be faster.

Moreover, in the trial world, most had already faced each other.

The final rankings wouldn’t change much.

After a day of arena battles.

The final rankings were as expected.

The only highlights were Ji Tang and Shen Jian.

Both of them had made continuous breakthroughs.

Now, Shen Jian was ranked nineteenth, and Ji Tang was ranked twentieth.

Shen Jian was still unknown.

However, Ji Tang’s performance shocked the Ji family head.

Even Ji Shuang personally sent a transmission to inquire.

“Brother Ji, congratulations this time. Among the top twenty, there are three from your Ji family. Remarkable!”

Many people offered their congratulations.

The Ji family head was also all smiles; this time, he indeed gained much face.

But when he transmitted to Ji Tang, she completely ignored him.

This made the Ji family head very embarrassed.

Fortunately, it was a transmission.

If he had spoken aloud and been ignored, it would have been even more humiliating.

“What’s going on?” The Ji family head took a deep breath, somewhat puzzled, and turned to the emperor of the Ji family dynasty beside him, asking in surprise, “Her bloodline is most similar to yours. Quickly think of when she was left behind!”

Entering the top 20 meant they would surely become the direct disciples of the Universe Master of the Seventh Tribulation realm.

Their future achievements would be boundless and could not be taken lightly.

If they didn’t return to the Ji family and instead resented them, it would be a great loss.

“Family head, you know me. With so many descendants, how could I remember when she was left behind!”

The Ji family head frowned, “What a blunder!”

He immediately instructed Ji Ye to go and converse with Ji Tang, attempting to win him over.

Once someone became the personal disciple of those super-strong experts, trying to win them over would be too deliberate.

This was the only time to form some ties.

There would be no such opportunity in the future.

Besides these family recognitions, some powerful Universe Masters also took the initiative to extend olive branches.

Among the over a thousand people, not everyone could be selected.

Additionally, apart from these thousand seed players, there were also some who had been eliminated but were not weak in strength.

They all had quite good talents.

These were all talents.

Moreover, they were the super-strong experts of the next era.

As long as they survived, it wouldn’t be difficult for them to become Universe Masters.

Many people went ahead and offered their tokens.

If they were not selected as disciples, they could join their sects after entering the Grave God Mountain.

This was considered a very good fallback.

Some who lacked confidence naturally accepted these tokens.

But more people still hoped to be accepted as personal disciples by the super-strong experts.

On the viewing platform, Zhen Ling rubbed his hands and, after glancing at the crowd, said, “Let’s start. I see you’re all anxious. Let’s begin from the back, a hundred people each time!”

Starting from the end.

A hundred trial participants successively stepped onto the viewing platform.

In the square, they could mostly see the Universe Masters below the viewing platform.

Once on the viewing platform, they witnessed the strongest batch of beings in the downstream spacetimes. Even though they were the pride of the heavens, their breathing still quickened, and their expressions were nervous.

“Little guys, don’t be afraid. This time, you’re choosing your master. But let me be clear first, you can choose first. If they don’t agree, you’ll have to be chosen. If the one you choose doesn’t agree and you aren’t selected during the choosing, don’t hold any grudges. I will personally take you into the Grave God Mountain to become the fourth-generation Inheritors!”

The fourth generation!

This was also the beginning of the next spacetime.

They were considered the first batch, and the benefits naturally needed no further explanation.

“Alright, let’s start!” Zhen Ling waved his big hand and stopped speaking.

Not speaking was better. Speaking only made these trial participants more nervous.

Letting them choose first, in case they chose someone who didn’t want them, it would be awkward to enter another great power’s sect during the choosing.

So many trial participants were looking at Jian Wushuang and the others, not daring to speak lightly.

Wu Zuo was the most cunning, winking at the disciples he wanted, showing a stance of “I’ll accept you if you come.”

For a while, many trial participants wanted to apprentice under Wu Zuo.

Because in this way, they wouldn’t offend anyone.

“Wu Zuo, you really have no shame!” Wu Tian frowned. If he were still Tongtian Buddha, he could put down his face, but after becoming the Demon Lord, his face became thinner than before.

However, he still learned from Wu Zuo, winking at those trial participants.

Among the hundred trial participants at the end, only a dozen or so were truly favored.

Jian Wushuang didn’t favor any of them.

The path he left this time was actually for three people.

These three were all in the top hundred.

His pressure was greater.

Among the hundred trial participants, some were quite proactive.

The proactive ones were all geniuses from great families and sects. After entering the top thousand, the ancestors of the sects or families had made clear the backgrounds of the eighteen super-strong experts to them.

The first choice was Jian Wushuang, Hu Qing, these super-strong experts who had learned from the upstream time-space.

Then it was Shang and Luo.

The rest was up to personal willingness.

Among the Seventh Tribulation realm, the gap in combat power and path was significant.

Naturally, they wanted to apprentice under the strongest one.

Therefore, many trial participants appeared in front of Jian Wushuang and Hu Qing.

“Jiang Chen, you cultivate the Thunder Dao and have mastered the ultimate lightning snake. You came to apprentice under me, but you found the wrong person. I’ll point you to a way out!” Jian Wushuang directly sent them away and gave suggestions one by one, asking them to switch to another person.

Very quickly, he sent them all away.
