Monarch Of Time

Chapter 966 The seventh trial: Showdown! (5)

A few moments later, the golden-robed Xuan Bo stood in front of Shun Long, towering over him like a giant staring down at an ant, as he asked curiously

ʼʼYou are Shun Long, arenʼt you? Iʼve already heard about you from the old man. How about you and I have a chat?ʼʼ

Although Xuan Bo wasnʼt overly tall, just over 180cm (5ftʼ11), his presence was so overwhelming that it caused the surrounding Dao Kings and Dao Emperors to involuntarily take a few steps back as he approached them. Even among other peak-stage Dao Emperors, Xuan Bo was an apex existence and wasnʼt someone any of these people could casually strike up a conversation with. He was the true, undisputed number one Dao Emperor inside the ʼCity of Immortalsʼ!

That was why, seeing him take the initiative to talk to someone else was a surprising event on its own.

Opening his eyes, Shun Long glanced at the handsome golden-robed youth who stood in front of him, before he waved his hand and said calmly

ʼʼIf you want to talk, have a seat. We still have a week before the second round starts anyway.ʼʼ Although Shun Long didnʼt mention it, he too had heard about this golden-robed youth from the purple-robed overseer.

During the past month, the old man constantly mentioned how that person was the only one in the ʼCity of Immortalsʼ who was talented enough to match Shun Long head-on. At this point, it would be a lie to say that Shun Long wasnʼt the slightest bit curious about this peak Dao Emperor in front of him.

Regardless of what kind of Dao he had comprehended, it was still a fact that Xuan Bo was a peak genius of the central continent, one that could not be compared to ordinary Dao Emperors.

Nodding his head, Xuan Bo casually took a seat on the ground next to Shun Long, not paying the slightest bit of attention to the surrounding Dao Kings and Dao Emperors who were staring at him and continued

ʼʼIʼm sure you know who I am but I am going to introduce myself anyway. My name is Xuan Bo and I am the crown prince of the Tianxuan dynasty.ʼʼ

Xuan Boʼs introduction was short and concise without any unnecessary details, but the weight and prestige his words carried were more than enough to stun anyone who heard them for the first time!

The crown prince of the Tianxuan dynasty! Who in the entire central continent didnʼt know of his name? Who wouldnʼt be wary of his title? After all, this was the future ruler of one of the strongest powers in the central continent.

And yet, Shun Long didnʼt seem surprised at all, almost as if he was already aware of the golden-robed youthʼs status.

Of course, he had already learned of Xuan Boʼs name a long time ago, after scanning through the information he had obtained from the ʼWhite Tiger chamber of commerceʼ, which was why he wasnʼt surprised right now.

Although those jade slips he had purchased only contained information about the 100 strongest Dao Kings and not the Dao Emperors, Shun Long still remembered the description of the person ranked 3rd in those jade slips, Xuan Long.

ʼʼ3rd place, Xuan Long: The second most powerful genius of the Tianxuan dynasty and the third son of the Tianxuan emperor. He is a peak rank 9 Dao King and a peak-sixth stage body refiner, rumored to have already defeated an early-stage Dao Emperor right before entering the ʼCity of Immortalsʼ. Although the Dao he has comprehended is still unknown, there are rumors that he was also born with an extremely rare unique physique that increases his physical strength and the resiliency of his skin many times over, making it harder than tempered steel. Among the entirety of the Tianxuan dynastyʼs younger generation, his talent is only second to his elder brother, the crown prince, Xuan Bo!ʼʼ

Naturally, Shun Long still remembered the mention of Xuan Boʼs name, since this person was widely considered to be the most talented member of the Tianxuan dynastyʼs younger generation!

Ultimately, Shun Long had to admit that the Tianxuan dynasty was a superpower of the central continent, one whose clutches were just as long and extensive as the ʼWhite Tiger chamber of commerceʼsʼ. As long as one lived in the central continent, they would still be inside their sphere of influence, one way or another. Well... most of the time at least!

With a profound look in his eyes, the sitting Xuan Bo glanced at Shun Long and continued

ʼʼI donʼt know what you did during the fifth trial that managed to impress the old man so much, to the point where he even ranked you above me in the ʼHeavenly Rankingsʼ, but you better not get complacent. I donʼt mind telling you that I barely showed a third of my strength during that trial, after all. The reason Iʼm telling you this is quite simple. If you used everything you had during the fifth trial, then you better forfeit your fight against me before it even begins... if you donʼt want to die that is. But if you have more to show, then I truly hope you can keep me entertained for a while!ʼʼ

As he finished speaking, Xuan Boʼs eyes flashed with a hint of ruthlessness as he stared at the azure-robed youth in front of him, not even bothering to conceal his eagerness to fight. Then, without waiting for a response, he simply stood up and turned around as he began to walk away.

In one week, he was definitely going to find out how strong this person who had surpassed him in the ʼHeavenly Rankingsʼ really was.

However, just as his calm, threatening words resounded throughout the mountain peak, Shun Long actually opened his eyes and glanced at Xuan Boʼs disappearing back, before he said calmly

ʼʼKeep you entertained? Even if you go all out and activate your ʼImmortal-grade bloodlineʼ, you are still not my match.ʼʼ
