Chapter 255 Little Nezha Makes a Move!
"These are the two we have. The others are not our people."
At this moment, Shangguan Lin also stopped his introduction.
"No, not anymore?"
Gu Jiancheng was taken aback upon hearing this and said, "Senior, you haven't forgotten, have you?"
"There are only three of us on our side?"
"Yang Jian, ranked seventh; Li Nezha, ranked twelfth; and then there's this guy at the very bottom."
There are only three prodigies on this side!?
Are the remaining thirty-three all enemies?
"Heh, what else do you want?"
"Whether it's you, Yang Jian, or Li Nezha, we've carefully selected you. The current rankings are useless; you'll see soon enough. I don't have high expectations for you; aim for fifth place," Shangguan Lin said with a smile.
"fifth……"
Looking around, Gu Jiancheng realized that getting fifth place meant he had to challenge and defeat Jin Chen from the Tianjin Realm, who was ranked fifth.
The top seven all possess cultivation levels above the peak of the early Saint stage, so there is still some pressure.
But as long as the other party doesn't use evil magic, he is confident that he can complete the mission.
"Alright, now that the elites of the thirty-six domains have all arrived, let the Heavenly Pride Feast begin!"
"I hope that you will all gain something during your six months of cultivation at the Supreme Holy Dao Palace!"
At this moment, the Heavenly Palace Master spoke, and the entire hall instantly fell silent.
Palace maids entered the main hall and brought out various delicious dishes.
Gu Jiancheng took a look and found that the quality of these dishes and wines was indeed extremely high, something that could not be found in the Holy Domain at all.
But the other thirty-five prodigies, like Gu Jiancheng, had no interest in tasting the food and all sat cross-legged in their seats, waiting quietly.
"Didn't they say the Heavenly Pride Banquet would feature interesting performances?"
"You haven't started yet?"
At this moment, Feng Ruoxi, the head of the hall, suddenly spoke up.
His cold voice echoed in the hall, causing everyone to turn their heads in surprise.
Unexpectedly, the very reason for the competition was brought up by Feng Ruoxi.
For a moment, all the younger disciples were filled with excitement.
"Senior Sister Ruoxi, let me perform one!"
At that moment, a figure suddenly rushed out from the seats.
Armored in golden armor and wielding a golden sword, he arrived at the center of the hall.
Gu Jiancheng stared intently and knew that this person was named Chen Duo, a half-step Saint Realm cultivator, currently ranked twenty-third among the thirty-six domains, which could be considered mid-level combat power.
"Heh, you, a mere cultivator from the Saint Gold Realm, dare to make a fool of yourself?!"
"I am enough to fight you!"
The appearance of Chen Duo immediately shocked and angered the geniuses from other regions.
They were just about to steal the spotlight when a junior stole it!
So, in an instant, a junior rushed out from his seat; he was a prodigy ranked twenty-fourth.
His cultivation level was similar to Chen Duo's.
After entering, they began fighting inside the main hall.
The main hall is isolated by the magic array barrier of the Tianxuan Palace, so even a Saint King realm cultivator cannot break through.
However, both of them are only ranked in the middle, and their combat strength is too average since they dare not use evil magic.
Even though they were already considered the strongest among the younger generation in their own region, they now looked down on all the Holy Kings in the main hall.
Feng Ruoxi also frowned as she watched.
In her eyes, this level of fighting was no different from children's brawls.
Afterwards, the opponents in the center of the hall kept changing, each wanting to show their talent at today's banquet for the elite.
After watching more than a dozen battles in a row, Gu Jiancheng also found it boring.
He has been waiting for his chance to make a move, but so far, none of the top fifteen have shown any intention of doing so.
Including Yang Jian and Li Nezha.
Even their expressions and postures haven't changed; one has his eyes closed, the other has his head held high—in short, they both appear very arrogant.
Gu Jiancheng was also waiting for an opportunity.
But it seems that it will be a while before that fifth-ranked guy makes a move.
After a long while, the junior who ranked thirteenth finally won. He looked around and said coldly, "Who wants to challenge me?!"
Those ranked after him either lost or had no intention of making a move.
After three breaths, he looked at the proud and arrogant Li Nezha and sneered, "Kid, I heard you come from the Blazing Flame Domain. I challenge you!"
Once no one challenges the cultivators ranked lower, the disciples standing in the main hall can then step forward to challenge them. If they win, the battle ends and the rankings are reset.
"Heh, you?"
Li Nezha then moved slightly, but after a sneer, he got up and went into the main hall.
He hovered barefoot, still with his arms crossed, coldly looking at his opponent, his eyes filled with disdain.
He didn't even unleash his full power, clearly not taking his opponent seriously.
"Make your move. I'll give you one chance. Don't waste your time!"
Although he appears young and his voice is somewhat immature, his words are as wild as a raging fire.
At that moment, Gu Jiancheng also bent down.
With the battle between the prodigies more than halfway through, he had finally waited for the fight he had been waiting for.
Shangguan Lin seemed very confident in Li Nezha. He wanted to see what kind of abilities this boy, who shared the same name as the human race in the mythology of Blue Star, had!
