Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 1908: Chapter 1907: Do You Regret It?

On the big screen—

Immortal King Sect, Ling Xiao, ranked first!

The entire venue was deathly silent, you could hear a pin drop!

Everyone held their breath, their eyes almost popping out, all focused on Ling Xiao, who stood in front of the stele with a faint smile on his lips!

Nine hundred feet of golden light...

Nine hundred feet!!!

”How is this possible!!!”

”Oh my god, could this testing stele be malfunctioning? Nine hundred feet of golden light? How can anyone attain that?”

”Since ancient times, this testing stele has never reached its peak, and thus it was limited to golden here, but this person... is only one hundred feet away from reaching the peak!!!”

”What kind of aptitude is this, just speaking of aptitude, it’s simply a freak!!!”

In that instant, a clamor erupted like a bomb dropping into a calm lake, creating huge waves.

Shock, amazement, disbelief, astoundment...

Various expressions appeared on everyone’s faces!

The usually calm Guang Qingye, Dark Night Divine Son, who seemed unwavering even in front of Mount Tai’s collapse, had his pupils contract, staring hard at Ling Xiao.

The second-ranked Ziwei Fairy, Ying Caiyi, her beautiful eyes were also rippling.

The one who looked the most uncomfortable was the third-ranked Haoxuan Demon Child, Zhan Penghui!

He was originally in third, but with Ling Xiao taking first, his rank would drop one, and the difference between third and fourth was entirely different.

In many people’s views, the fourth might as well be the tenth... there’s not much difference.

And it wasn’t just these heavenly talents; even many of the powerhouses from the various sect influences and mighty beings breathed deeply, looking at Ling Xiao as if they were gazing at a priceless treasure.

It’s no surprise, who wouldn’t want such a heavenly talent?

Nine hundred feet of golden aptitude, just one hundred short of the peak. If he doesn’t die young, he will inevitably become a super-stronger that will hold sway over a region in the future!

”Hahahahahaha...”

Amidst the uproar, a burst of laughter rang out.

It was the laughter of Yuchi Tiannan, the mighty being in the Dao Sovereign Realm and Deputy Sect Master of the Immortal King Sect!

Seeing the many dumbfounded faces around him and feeling the clamor in the venue, Yuchi Tiannan couldn’t be more delighted!

The Immortal King Sect had been suppressed for so many years, ridiculed at every heavenly talent competition, mocked, despised, and scoffed at!

Especially during this first stage!

Aptitude nearly determines a person’s future achievements and their strength.

The Immortal King Sect didn’t have any remarkable heavenly talents, so their aptitude wasn’t anything strong either.

But now, Ling Xiao made an appearance, astonishing the world!

Even with a state of mind in the Dao Sovereign Realm, Yuchi Tiannan couldn’t help but laugh heartily in excitement at this moment.

The countless frustrations over the years were swept away, as if the floodgates were opened, providing the ultimate release!

At this moment, Yuchi Tiannan suddenly felt like he was back 2,200,000 years ago when he single-handedly helped the Immortal King Sect achieve sixteenth place!

This feeling...爽!!!

”Congratulations, Vice Sect Master Yuchi.”

An elder from the Divine Dao Religion clasped his hands towards Yuchi Tiannan, saying in a deep voice, ”After so many years, the Immortal King Sect is finally going to turn the tide.”

”Hahaha...”

Yuchi Tiannan laughed again, also clasping his hands in return, ”Thank you, the same to you, hahaha...”

Immediately after, many others began to speak and congratulate Yuchi Tiannan.

Whether they were sincere or not, as long as they spoke, Yuchi Tiannan would thank them one by one.

Di Lin stood there in a daze, looking at the nine hundred feet of golden light still exploding, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Not to mention other sects, even the heavenly talents belonging to the Immortal King Sect were inexplicably stunned!

”No wonder he could reach the Fifth Grade Divine Sea Realm in such a short time, such aptitude, even Fifth Grade Divine Sea Realm is too low!” Yuchi Jie clenched his fist, excited to death.

In his heart, a voice kept repeating—Thank the heavens, thank the earth, thank Supreme Ling Tian!

Even more thanks to the Qing Emperor Sect!

Because the Qing Emperor Sect expelled Su Han and others, the Immortal King Sect took them in, leading to this moment.

I am a meritorious official of the Immortal King Sect!!!

...

On the Qing Emperor Sect’s side, many high-level elders had sour expressions.

”Madam, if I recall correctly, this person was one of those you expelled, right?” An old man glanced towards Lin Jian’s mother.

His mother lowered her head slightly, her expression complex, coldly snorting, ”Back then, Lin Fengjie only said that the Third-Grade Void Heaven Order was the one to participate in the heavenly talent competition. Who could have expected such a freak to be among them? If I had known, how could I have driven him away?”

”Humph!”

The old man snorted coldly, wanting to say more but ultimately restrained because of Lin Jian’s mother’s status.

...

Before the stele, Lin Jian looked at the one hundred and fifty-five feet of golden aptitude he showed, but there was no happiness on his face.

Because all the steles had already been overshadowed by Ling Xiao; even if he reached five hundred feet, so what?

”Damn it!!!”

Lin Jian’s face was dark, gritting his teeth, wishing he could smash Ling Xiao with one blow.

If not for Ling Xiao, he would be the most remarkable figure in this test!

And Ling Xiao was someone he had personally driven out!

To say he wasn’t regretful would be a lie; compared to this, the humiliation the Qing Emperor Sect endured was even greater than that of the Immortal King Sect.

If I had known, keeping this person would mean it wasn’t the Immortal King Sect reveling in success but the Qing Emperor Sect!

The key point is, the Twelve Ancestral Emperors are almost all focused on the heavenly talent competition. If this situation reaches the ears of the Illusion Clear Ancestor Emperor... I can’t avoid another punishment!

”Damn Lin Fengjie, where did he find such a freak!”

Thinking of this, Lin Jian couldn’t help but look at Lin Fengjie.

Lin Fengjie happened to look up, their gazes meeting, his lips curling into a gleeful grin.

”My dear brother, do you see it?”

”This was the reinforcements I found, but you and your mother drove them away with your own hands!”

”Qing Emperor Sect has lost consecutively for thirty-two times, suffering endless ridicule and humiliation, yet you still don’t consider the big picture and only focus on yourselves!”

”With people as selfish as you, how can the Qing Emperor Sect ever make a comeback?”

”I just have to ask you one thing, do you regret it?”

As these words fell, the venue again erupted in chatter.

”What?!”

”These people were originally reinforcements Lin Fengjie brought for the Qing Emperor Sect? Yet Lin Jian drove them away?”

”Haha, Qing Emperor Sect, no wonder it keeps losing!”

”With such terrifying freaks in the Qing Emperor Sect, wouldn’t they be setting off fireworks right now?”

”One wrong thought leads to a world of difference!”
