War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Similar to Hou Qing Ning, the onlookers were surprised by Du Po Jun’s sudden outburst of power as well.

“Du Po Jun was hiding his strength earlier!”

“As it turns out, his bloodline power earlier was not in its ultimate form. I’ve heard about bloodline powers that have different forms. However, today’s my first time witnessing it!”

“Even when Du Po Jun was holding back earlier, they were evenly matched. Now that Du Po Jun has unleashed even more power, the outcome is clear.”

At this moment, the expressions of everyone from the Hidden Fog Sect, including their sect leader; Qian Yin, were rather unsightly.

On the contrary, the people from the 10,000 Devils Sect, including their sect leader; Lan Qing, wore bright smiles on their faces.

However, just when everyone thought Liu Yi Ming and Lin Xiong were about to lose for sure, the duo suddenly changed their weapons at the critical moment and erupted with power.

“Those are prominent divine artifacts!”

“It seems like the Hidden Fog Sect lent Lin Xiong and Liu Yi Ming the prominent divine artifacts for the Latent Dragon Grand Contest!”

“Think about it. If the Hidden Fog Sect lent Lin Xiong and Liu Yi Ming prominent divine artifacts for the Latent Dragon Grand Contest, would Du PO Jun, the grandson of Supreme Elder Du Zhan, be without a prominent divine artifact?”

Indeed, Lin Xiong and Liu Yi Ming’s prominent divine artifacts were temporarily loaned to them by their masters for the Latent Dragon Grand Contest. However, due to the disadvantage in their fight against Du PO Jun, they were forced to bring out the prominent divine artifact. Otherwise, they would have been defeated by now.

Meanwhile, Du PO Jun chuckled when he saw his opponents’ prominent divine artifact and said, “Do you think you’re the only ones with prominent divine artifacts?”

Following that, Du PO Jun switched his weapon to a prominent divine artifact as well. After that, his attacks grew even stronger, easily overpowering his two opponents.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The attacks collided.

Although Du PO Jun’s attacks were powerful and crushed his opponents’ attacks easily, it was far from his full strength. Even then, if the attack landed, it was capable of severely injuring his opponents.

At this time, when Qian Yin saw Lin Xiong and Liu Yi Ming were about to be hit, he teleported and appeared in front of the duo. He released the Divine Energy from his body, shielding the duo from Du PO Jun’s attack.

Upon seeing this, the onlookers could not help but frown.

The people from the 10 ,ooo Devils Sect did not look happy as well.

However, before the people from the 10,000 Devils Sect could protest, Qian Yin took the lead and said, “The Hidden Fog Sect admits defeat. The prodigy from the 10,000 Devils Sect really deserves his reputation. As expected of someone who’s only second to Yang Qian Ye in the 10,000 Devils Sect.”

After that, Qian Yin raised his hand and tossed a spatial ring toward Lan Qing and said, “Sect Leader Lan Qing, there’s a million divine rocks in there as promised.’

“Sect Leader Qian Yin, you’re truly a straightforward person,” Lan Qing, who was initially upset by Qian Yin’s intervention, said. A smile could not be seen on his face since Qian Yin had taken the initiative to admit defeat. After all, if Du PO Jun was in danger, he would have done the same as well.

Most of the people from the 10,000 Devils Sect felt the same way as Lan Qing as well. However, there were a few who were dissatisfied and proceeded to mock the Hidden Fog Sect.

“The disciples of the Hidden Fog Sect are really too weak! They even needed their sect leader to protect them!”

“Hey, didn’t Sect Leader Qian Yin say something about swords not being able to differentiate between friends and foes? Didn’t he say if his two disciples somehow injured Senior Brother PO Jun, our sect shouldn’t take offense? What a joke!”

“If you ask me, there’s no one outstanding among the younger generation in the Hidden Fog Sect at all! Perhaps, in just a few tens of thousands of years, our sect will be able to annex the Hidden Fog Sect!”

Those from the Hidden Fog Sect blushed in embarrassment upon hearing the mocking words. However, they had no way to refute those words. After all, as unpleasant as they were, the words were true.

The two defeated disciples of the Hidden Fog Sect, Lin Xiong and Liu Yi Ming, retreated with a grave expression on their faces. They did not expect Du PO Jun to be so strong. He was even stronger than rumored. In fact, his strength was comparable to that of Yang Qian Ye’s rumored strength. This meant that Yang Qian Ye was even stronger than rumored.

Following that, one by one, people’s eyes began to shift to Duan Ling Tian. Most of them felt that if Duan Ling Tian were still in the Hidden Fog Sect, he might have been able to secure the victory for the Hidden Fog Sect.

At this time, an onlooker, who wanted to stir up trouble, suddenly called out, “Du PO Jun! If Duan Ling Tian were still in the Hidden Fog Sect, do you think you’d be able to defeat him?”

The man’s appearance was ordinary, but his eyes shone with confidence, and he was dressed in fine brocade robes. He, along with a few hundred people, stood behind a majestic middle-aged man.

At this time, Lan Qing looked over and said to the majestic middle-aged man, who stood in front of the finely-dressed young man, “Sect Leader Hua, I didn’t expect to meet you here! The last time we saw each other was 300 years ago.”

“Sect Leader Lan Qing,” the majestic middle-aged man said as he nodded and smiled, “You’re right. We’ve not seen each other for 300 years now. I think the last time we met was during the Flying Dragon Sect’s entrance examinations.”

Without waiting for Lan Qing to respond, the majestic middle-aged man turned around and said to the finely-dressed young man, “Du’er, hurry up and greet Sect Leader Lan Qing.”

The finely-dressed young man, who had spoken up earlier, stepped forward and said, “Greetings, Sect Leader Lan Qing. I’m Hua Tian Du.”

“I’ve heard a lot about you, Tian Du,” Lan Qing said with a smile, “I heard you’re the strongest core disciple in the Eastern Oriental Sect. Since you became an advanced King of Gods, there aren’t many rudimentary Lords of Gods in the Eastern Oriental Sect who are a match for you. Tian Du, if you came to participate in the entrance examination and the Latent Dragon Grand Contest, I’m sure you’ll rankin the top three.”

Lan Qing was not stingy with his praise at all.

With Lan Qing’s words, everyone was made aware of the identity of the finely-dressed young man who tried to stir up trouble earlier. He was none other than Hua Tian Du, the Young Master of the Eastern Oriental Sect.

The Eastern Oriental Sect was a lord-rank sect that was stronger than the

Hidden Fog Sect, the 10,000 Devils Sect, the Linghu clan, and the Murong clan. There were many intermediate Lords of Gods in their sect. Apart from that, they had even more powerful Lords of Gods in the Eastern Oriental faction in the Flying Dragon Sect. For this reason, the Eastern Oriental Sect had a huge influence in the Flying Dragon Sect. The Hidden Fog Sect, the 10,000 Devils Sect, the Linghu clan, and the Murong clan could not compare to it at all.

‘The Eastern Oriental Sect…’ Duan Ling Tian had heard about the Eastern Oriental Sect a long time ago. He knew it was located on the other side of the Flying Dragon Sect, far away from the Linghu clan, the Hidden Fog Sect, the 10,000 Devils Sect, and the Murong clan. He also knew the Sect Leader of the Eastern Oriental Sect was Hua Chun Ming, an intermediate Lord of Gods. ‘So that’s Hua Chun Ming,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as he looked at the majestic middle-aged man.

Although Hua Chun Ming’s appearance and build were ordinary, he had a majestic air about him. It was something one could only have after being in a high position for a long time.

Duan Ling Tian had also heard about Hua Tian Du.

Hua Tian Du was Hua Chun Ming’s fourth son. He was one of Hua Chun Ming’s two most talented sons.

The other son was Hua Chun Ming’s second son, and his name was Hua Tian Cheng. He had joined the Flying Dragon Sect a long time ago and was one of the three youngest White Dragon Elders of the Flying Dragon Sect. In the Flying Dragon Sect, he was as famous as Xue Hai Chuan.

At this time, the leaders of the Linghu clan, the Murong clan, and the Hidden Fog Sect greeted Hua Chun Ming one after another.

Many leaders of the king-rank forces stepped forward and humbly greeted Hua Chun Ming as well. They could not help but feel flattered when Hua Chun Ming nodded in response to their greeting.

‘There’s such a big gap even among lord-rank forces,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself with a sigh as he watched the scene in front of him.

It was clear that the Linghu Clan, the Hidden Fog Sect, the 10,000 Devils Sect, and the Murong Clan were inferior to the Eastern Oriental Sect that was also a lord-rank force. Moreover, in the Eastern Ridge Mansion, there were other lord-rank forces that were even more powerful than the Eastern Oriental Sect.

Among those lord-rank forces, there was no lack of advanced Lords of Gods. Lord-rank forces like these no longer need to curry favor with emperor-rank forces like the Flying Dragon Sect. After all, the Flying Dragon Sect currently had no Emperors of Gods despite being an emperor-rank force. They were only an emperor-rank force due to their founders who were Emperor of Gods. In terms of strength, they were only equivalent to those top lord-rank forces.]

As for the Eastern Oriental Sect, they were only slightly weaker than the Flying

Dragon Sect. Even then, there was no need for them to act humbly before the Flying Dragon Sect. In fact, there were several lord-rank forces like the Eastern Oriental Sect around the Flying Dragon Sect.

After all the leaders present greeted Hua Chun Ming, Hua Tian Du said again,

“Du Po Jun, you haven’t answered my question.”

Everyone’s eyes fell on Du Po Jun immediately.

If it were anyone else, Du Po Jun could have ignored the question. Alas, Hua Tian Du was the Young Master of the Eastern Oriental Sect, which was not much weaker than the Flying Dragon Sect. Although he was irri tated, he did not dare to show it. He smiled at Hua Tian Du before he inadvertently turned to look at Duan Ling Tian..
