High Martial Arts: I Awaken a Low-Tier Martial System

Chapter 723: Chapter 376: Zi Yaozhi, Wang Ye Actually...? (Double Chapter)

”Are you also planning to challenge the Fourteenth Layer?” A strange light flashed in the Purple Armor Youth’s eyes.

”Why?” White Stream’s eyes were calm as an ancient well: ”Are you planning to try as well?”

”Haha.”

”The Fourteenth Layer, who wouldn’t want to give it a try?” The Purple Armor Youth’s eyes glinted with madness: ”It’s said that if you can reach the Fourteenth Layer of the Black Tower, there are great benefits.”

The conversation between the two wasn’t deliberately concealed; everyone around the Black Tower could clearly hear it.

This conversation also caused a great commotion among the crowd.

”Your Highness White Stream and His Highness Purple Maple, are they also going to attempt the Fourteenth Layer?”

”It’s too crazy.”

”Adding Zi Yaozhi to the mix, there will be three geniuses attempting the Fourteenth Layer this time.”

”Will anyone succeed?” Many geniuses were discussing spiritedly.

Jiang Ye also felt curious.

He looked toward Mo Xin beside him: ”Reaching the Fourteenth Layer, are there really great benefits?”

”Indeed.” Mo Xin nodded slightly.

”It’s not just the rewards of the Black Tower.”

”It’s said that if you can reach the Fourteenth Layer and then advance to the Huanglong Main Star, you can obtain the [Third-class General Order]!” Mo Xin’s eyes were filled with strong desire.

”Third-class General Order?” Jiang Ye was taken aback.

It sounds like some kind of emblem of status and power.

”The Fourteenth Layer, the difficulty is beyond our imagination.”

”Generally, only those with the Talent can reach that level.” Mo Xin shook his head: ”Although both White Stream and Purple Maple are strong, their chances of reaching the Fourteenth Layer are still very low.”

”However.”

”There is another genius from Purple Obsidian City who hasn’t arrived yet; he might have a chance to pass through the Fourteenth Layer.” Mo Xin said.

”Zi Yaozhi?” Jiang Ye asked.

”That’s right.” Mo Xin smiled: ”Brother Jiang Ye also knows him?”

Jiang Ye nodded, just about to say something when he suddenly felt an impulse: ”He’s here.”

Boom!

As the words fell, a terrifying aura suddenly erupted, sweeping across the scene like a solar storm.

An intensely scorching wave instantly enveloped the sky over the entire Black Tower.

Following closely, a purple-gold figure appeared, stepping through the air.

”Buzz~”

This purple-gold figure took a step, and a formless ripple spread rapidly from underfoot, causing the surrounding void to shatter layer by layer.

As he moved, the entire world seemed to be gripped tightly by invisible giant hands.

Everyone present, except for the likes of White Stream and Purple Maple, trembled, feeling an incredible suffocation.

”Your Highness Zi Yaozhi.”

”Your Highness.” Many geniuses from Purple Obsidian City, including Purple Maple, bowed respectfully, their attitudes extremely deferential.

The same geniuses.

Emerging from Purple Obsidian City, they were even more aware of Zi Yaozhi’s formidable nature.

Thus, even as extraordinaries, they revered Zi Yaozhi more than geniuses from other ancient cities.

”So he is Zi Yaozhi?” Jiang Ye squinted his eyes.

A formidable opponent!

An unprecedented formidable opponent!

Jiang Ye’s mind was alarmed; he perceived an extreme threat from him.

This is really too exaggerated.

Even when facing a powerhouse of a higher Realm, Jiang Ye could remain calm.

But now, when facing merely an opponent of the same level, Jiang Ye actually felt a fatal threat.

Indeed!

Jiang Ye could tell that Zi Yaozhi’s Realm was only Seventh Break.

”If I were to battle with this person.”

”My chance of victory... is less than fifty percent.” Jiang Ye, having acquired many inheritances, had a very high level of insight.

Even at the first glance of Zi Yaozhi.

Jiang Ye’s mind had already deduced many possibilities; if a fight were to truly break out, he might not be able to match.

Of course, the key reason was still the disparity of the Great Realm.

”This person should be like me.”

”He has also comprehended various Basic Mysteries.” Jiang Ye pondered to himself: ”It’s just unknown, exactly how many he’s comprehended.”

Three? Four? Or five?

All are possible.

”A secondary civilization is truly a place full of hidden talents.”

”Even as just a subsidiary planet, it has such extraordinary anomalies exist.” Jiang Ye sighed in his heart: ”Never underestimate; I must be cautious and prudent.”

Unconsciously.

Jiang Ye’s insight and knowledge unwittingly increased significantly.

Sometimes, a clear understanding of oneself is also a reflection of insight.

...

Time flowed by.

More and more people entered the black mist.

However, the people who entered later all dared not emit any aura.

For no other reason!

Only because in mid-air, a silhouette in purple-gold was suppressing everyone with an absolutely overwhelming momentum.

Even the extremely powerful Bai Xi and Zi Feng had to bow their heads in his presence.

”This is Zi Yaozhi.”

”He’s truly powerful beyond resistance,” Mo Xin expressed with a hint of resignation in his eyes. As proud as he was, he had to admit Zi Yaozhi’s commanding dominance.

And at this moment.

Within the black mist, the number of people reached ten thousand.

”Boom!” The Black Tower trembled, and a vast amount of light surged within the black mist, as if a teleportation array had lit up, instantly enveloping the thousands of prodigies in the black mist.

Whoosh!

The next moment, the tens of thousands of prodigies in the black mist disappeared all at once, transported instantly into the Black Tower.

The Black Tower trial, officially begins!

...

Above the Black Tower, in an unknown void.

A few blurry silhouettes descended here, each one magnificent, exuding a vast aura.

If Zhao Zixuan and Zhao Zishuang were here, they would definitely recognize one of the silhouettes as their ancestor, the Black Obsidian Deity.

”The trial has begun.”

”Can someone from these youngsters get to the fourteenth layer?”

”Zi Yaozhi, Bai Xi, Zi Feng, these three should be the most outstanding talents of this generation.”

”If these three make it to the fourteenth layer and obtain the [Third-class General Order], our Barbaric Dragon Star can improve its rank among the Huanglong Hundred Stars.”

”Unfortunately, aside from Zi Yaozhi, the other two might not make it.” The grand silhouettes conversed among themselves.

They are the City Lords of twelve prosperous ancient cities.

Each one is a god-level existence.

In the past, when the Black Tower opened, they might not have paid so much attention.

But this time, it concerns the ranking of Barbaric Dragon Star among the ’Huanglong Hundred Stars’, so these City Lords are exceptionally attentive.

”Barbaric Dragon Star is ultimately a desolate planet.” The Black Obsidian City Lord sighed, ”For an extraordinary talent to emerge as a Huanglong General is already quite an achievement.”

The other City Lords nodded in agreement.

Barbaric Dragon Star is too remote.

Its rank among the Huanglong Hundred Stars is not high.

”Black Obsidian,” a City Lord in purple suddenly said, ”Can anyone from your Black Obsidian City reach the tenth layer this time?”

The air suddenly became silent.

The City Lords all looked towards the direction of Black Obsidian.

”What are you looking at?”

”I can’t foresee the future.” The Black Obsidian City Lord said calmly, ”The tower challenge has just begun, how would I know the outcome?”

They exchanged glances, each with different expressions.

It’s not surprising for them to have speculations.

Black Obsidian City hasn’t produced a genius who reached the tenth layer of the Black Tower in years.

To others, this might seem like a coincidence.

But from a god’s perspective, it’s clearly related to fortune... The emergence of a peerless genius is closely tied to the fortune of an ancient city.

Fortune!

To gods, this is of utmost importance.

The balance of fortune largely determines the rise and fall of an ancient city.

And the recent performance of Black Obsidian City has proven its declining fortune.

Perhaps, Black Obsidian City is no longer suitable to hold the position of the leader of ancient cities... This is the opinion of most City Lords.

After all, pulling one hair affects the whole body.

If a city with declining fortune leads, the fortune of the entire Barbaric Dragon Star could be affected.

”Alas.”

”Is my Black Obsidian City really going to lose its position as the leader of ancient cities?” The Black Obsidian City Lord sighed inwardly. He was well aware of this too.

But as the City Lord, he bears the fate of billions of citizens.

He has to withstand the pressure.

”Mo Xin.”

”Hope he can break through the tenth layer this time.” The Black Obsidian City Lord also had a glimmer of hope.

...

Within Black Obsidian City.

In a pavilion, thirty-six elders of Black Obsidian City gathered.

”This time, we depend on Mo Xin.”

”Zhao Zishuang is also good, but she can only make it to the ninth layer and then no further.”

”We hope Mo Xin can break through the tenth layer.”

”As long as Mo Xin breaks through the tenth layer, our Black Obsidian City can hope to continue holding the position of the leader of ancient cities.” The thirty-six elders were closely watching the direction of the Black Tower, paying close attention.

However.

One elder, carrying dual blades and exuding a wild aura, stared at a corner.

”Wang Ye.”

”How is this kid performing?” Zhao Tiangang watched in the direction of the Black Tower.

Suddenly.

”Hmm?”

”This kid actually?” Zhao Tiangang’s eyes suddenly lit up, followed by a look of surprise.
