There are always people beyond us, and skies beyond our skies.
Nurous formidable beings exist in this world, and the Great Experts who have lived for eons, like the Wuming Palace's Palace Master, have witnessed beings more powerful than themselves and can accept defeat.
However, Tian Chengjian is relatively young, and being defeated by soone from the Lower Realm could likely affect his cultivation heart.
"Master, I can't accept this."
Tian Chengjian knew that the Wuming Palace's Palace Master's involvent already signaled his defeat.
"Being unable to accept it won't help. You need to practice even harder in the future if you wish to surpass him."
"Yes."
Tian Chengjian did not dare to retort the Wuming Palace's Palace Master, and hence returned to the Wuming Palace's station.
"Lu truly is impressive; he has now entered the top eight."
"Lu has successively defeated the Martial God Palace and Wuming Palace of the eight Divine Palaces, and is likely to face Ancient Helian Clan's family genius, Helian Ba next. Honestly speaking, Helian Ba's strength is not on par with Chu Wuqing or Tian Chengjian; he was just extrely lucky in the draw. It seems that Lu will make it into the top four."
"To be among the myriad unparalleled geniuses born within a million years in the Immortal Realm and enter the top four, Lu is indeed a dragon among n. His future achievents are boundless."
"Why don't we have such geniuses in our Cloud Mountain Holy Land? From now on, all disciples of the Cloud Mountain Holy Land must take Lu as their target."
"Ancestor, please spare us."
Everyone thought that Lu Changsheng would make it into the top four, including the Ancient Helian Clan.
The elders of the Ancient Helian Clan were aware that Helian Ba making it into the top eight was already sufficient.
However, the performance of Lu Changsheng, who had protected Su Yun from the Ancient Su Clan, was surprisingly outstanding, beyond the Ancient Helian Clan's expectations.
The more Lu Changsheng beca the center of attention, the less they could afford to make a move against him. Consequently, they also couldn't capture Su Yun and obtain the treasures of the Ancient Su Family.
Following Lu Changsheng, the top eight were decided, the upper bracket being Lu Changsheng, Helian Ba, Yuexi, and Xia Ningxue; and the lower bracket being Chen Jinxia, Emperor Ku, Prince Long, and Song Lihen.
Among them, four talents from the Lower Realm and four from the Heavenly Court.
Many Holy Lands and Prestigious Families were exhilarated; they actually tied with the Heavenly Court fifty-fifty!
The eight Divine Palaces of the Heavenly Court could hardly save face.
Of the eight Divine Palaces, only the Miluo Palace's Emperor Ku and Prince Long, the Mysterious Lady Palace's Yuexi, and the Douluo Palace's Song Lihen made it into the top eight. Their ambition to monopolize the top eight had, evidently, failed.
During the intermission, Xia Ningxue, who was training in the Guanghan Palace's cultivation thods within the cultivation space, recalled her avatar.
Yuexi, the top genius of the Mysterious Lady Palace, is undoubtedly a formidable opponent. Xia Ningxue needed to integrate the cultivation achievents of her avatar accumulated over six thousand years to stand a chance against her.
Lu Changsheng's next opponent would be Helian Ba.
Helian Ba had not shown strength equivalent to either Chu Wuqing or Tian Chengjian, and it seed he wasn't concealing his true power either; thus, Lu Changsheng believed he could defeat him without recalling his avatar.
Inside the Mysterious Lady Palace, everyone believed that Yuexi would easily defeat Xia Ningxue.
The strength Xia Ningxue had shown was only at the eighth-level of the Immortal Emperor Realm. Like Helian Ba, she advanced to the top eight mostly due to favorable luck in the draw.
"Yuexi is the highest qualified among the young generation of elders and disciples in our Mysterious Lady Palace. Even the Palace Master praises her endlessly. She can definitely easily defeat the Guanghan Holy Maiden and advance into the top four."
"Yuexi in just the top four? I believe even Tai Hua's Holy Son, Lu Changsheng, is no match for her. Yuexi is our candidate for the next generation's twelve Sword Maidens of the Mysterious Lady Palace. With her talents, among the eight Divine Palaces, only Emperor Ku dares to say he is confident in defeating her."
Elders and disciples of the Mysterious Lady Palace all favored Yuexi.
The twelve Sword Maidens were relaxed; they knew Yuexi's true strength all too well.
Except for the son of the Heavenly Emperor, none from the eight Divine Palaces could rival Yuexi.
Yuexi was being grood to be the next generation's Sword Maiden by the Mysterious Lady Palace, indicative of her extraordinary talents.
The Sword Maidens throughout the generations of the Mysterious Lady Palace were geniuses among geniuses, a rare occurrence in a billion years.
Yuexi was also relaxed; she looked at her next opponent, Xia Ningxue, and suddenly, Yuexi's expression changed.
Xia Ningxue's aura was rapidly ascending, unexpectedly making a breakthrough to the ninth-level Immortal Emperor Realm right before the battle!
The improvent in Xia Ningxue occurred in just a blink of an eye!
"Could she have been hiding her real strength all along?"
Yuexi's expression gradually grew solemn.
Xia Ningxue would be a formidable opponent.
Her cultivation ti was longer than Xia Ningxue's, so if she couldn't defeat Xia Ningxue, the reputation of Mysterious Lady Palace would inevitably be affected.
The twelve Sword Maidens of Mysterious Lady Palace also noticed Xia Ningxue.
"This lady…"
The twelve Sword Maidens all brightened up.
Mysterious Lady Palace is the only sect in the Heavenly Court composed entirely of female cultivators, and Xia Ningxue's qualifications perfectly et the requirents of Mysterious Lady Palace.
Xia Ningxue's avatar returned to her main body, restoring her full strength. Moreover, the avatar had cultivated for over six thousand years, absorbing so fragnts of the Chaos Heavenly Ginseng's Heaven and Earth Laws and fragnts of the Heaven and Earth Will, making Xia Ningxue suddenly break through to the ninth level of the Immortal Emperor Realm upon the avatar's return.
Xia Ningxue's breakthrough surprised everyone in Guanghan Palace.
Facing the Mysterious Lady Palace's top talent previously, Xia Ningxue's breakthrough could undoubtedly increase her chances of winning.
"Xue'er's qualifications far exceed mine. In no more than ten million years, she can succeed as the Guanghan Palace Master."
Li Heng couldn't help but praise.
Xia Ningxue's qualifications were exceptionally high, and Li Heng, in her youth, couldn't compare with Xia Ningxue and even decided to pass on the position of Guanghan Palace Master to Xia Ningxue in the future.
Most Elders and Disciples of Guanghan Palace had no objections.
It's a joke; Xia Ningxue entered the top eight in the Immortal Realm purely through her strong capabilities, and as long as she doesn't fall prematurely, she's very likely to beco a Great Expert.
For a Holy Land, having an additional Great Expert would unquestionably elevate their strength to another level.
Only Jiang Yue Fairy felt so jealousy.
If it weren't for Xia Ningxue's extraordinary ergence, the position of Guanghan Palace Master could very well have been hers.
But Jiang Yue Fairy couldn't do anything about it, as Xia Ningxue's qualifications were evident, and she couldn't match Xia Ningxue.
Xia Ningxue rapidly broke through to the Immortal Emperor Realm and opened her eyes which were clear like lake water: "Master, I have cultivated our Guanghan Palace's Sect-Defending Skill 'Vast Misty Waves' up to the eighth layer."
"So quickly?" Explore more at My Virtual Library Empire
Li Heng was even more pleasantly surprised.
The more outstanding her disciple was, the happier she naturally beca.
Like Mount Taihua, Guanghan Palace also possessed Sect-Defending Skills left behind by Ancient Great Powers, one of which was 'Vast Misty Waves', consisting of eleven layers. Xia Ningxue's ability to master the eighth layer while in the Immortal Emperor Realm was simply a miracle.
"How could she possibly have mastered the eighth layer? Even the Palace Master reached the eighth layer only in the Divine King Realm."
Jiang Yue Fairy grew even more jealous of Xia Ningxue's talent.
Xia Ningxue's qualifications were extrely against the heavens.
Moreover, Xia Ningxue had cultivation levels sealed inside her by the Ancestor.
"It seems Xue'er has gained a lot."
Lu Changsheng seeing Xia Ningxue's realm improvent, knew that she had benefited imnsely from her cultivation space.
The first match of the quarterfinals is Lu Changsheng against Helian Ba.
Helian Ba's strength was not on par with Tian Chengjian's, and he was quickly defeated by Lu Changsheng.
Helian Ba seed to have anticipated his own defeat: "Lu Changsheng, although your qualifications are extrely high, not accepting the invitation from Wushen Palace was your mistake. Without the protection of the eight Divine Palaces, you think you can shelter Su Yun, that despicable woman, you will regret it."
"Oh."
Lu Changsheng just responded nonchalantly.
He dared to strike Dantai ng, the daughter of Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable, let alone offend the Ancient Helian Family?
Helian Ba was even more frustrated.
He made a harsh remark, but from Lu Changsheng's response, it was clear that Lu Changsheng did not take their Ancient Helian Family's threat seriously at all.
Helian Family couldn't afford to target Lu Changsheng openly in front of the crowd, leaving Helian Ba no choice but to step down.
"The second group for the competition, Mysterious Lady Palace's Yuexi against Guanghan Palace's Xia Ningxue."
The first group competition was without surprises, but the second group competition imdiately sparked interest among the crowd.
The two most outstanding goddesses in this competition finally t in the top eight.
Watching two future goddess-level characters fight was indeed a pleasure.
