Wang Xu killed Copper dicine Fire and devoured its core, which suddenly stirred up a great commotion.
However, the incident was not completely over.
"Tai Xu, you now rank second on the leaderboard, do you want to continue challenging?" the referee asked.
Everyone has three challenge opportunities. Once you succeed in the challenge, you can choose to continue challenging or give up. Continuing to challenge ans attacking soone with a higher rank. If you give up, all three challenge opportunities are lost, and your ranking is fixed.
Therefore, in most people's eyes, the three challenge opportunities are actually only one, as challenging upwards requires consuming a lot of Constant Spirit. If the opponent is very strong, it could even get you injured, leaving no state for a second challenge.
"Continue challenging." Wang Xu's answer imdiately drew a gasp from the crowd.
Wang Xu is now the second, and if he continues to challenge, there's only the first place, Copper dicine He Xian, left!
"Continue challenging?"
The top mbers of the clan were all stunned.
"Clan Leader, He Xian has already gone to the 'Palace of Truth' and is no longer in the clan territory. If he wants to challenge, what should we do?" the referee inquired of Copper dicine Xiuzhen.
"This matter is indeed beyond my expectations."
The Clan Leader pondered for a mont, "Let it be announced directly that He Xian forfeits the duel, allowing him to beco first."
"There is no other way." The referee nodded.
In the clan competition rules, when the challenger's opponent is not present, the ranking typically shifts, allowing another challenger to step up.
But Wang Xu is already second, and besides the first place, there is no one else to challenge. It wouldn't make sense to challenge soone ranked lower than him, right?
This unique situation has never occurred in the history of the Copper dicine Clan, and Wang Xu is the first.
"Tai Xu, the challenged has chosen to forfeit, and you have successfully challenged." The referee's voice rang out, causing a stir in the crowd.
This person, who had neither been seen nor heard of before, actually beca first!
The crowd below buzzed with discussions, and Wang Xu couldn't help but pause for a mont before smiling slightly, "Looks like luck is on my side this ti. I thought there would be a tough battle, but it turned out to be so smooth."
For the first-place Copper dicine He Xian, Wang Xu privately inquired with the Copper dicine City Lord and specifically gathered so information.
This person displayed extrely formidable talent, having been able to kill an Ancient Spirit Realm cultivator while still in the True Spirit Realm. Through the years, he held the number one position among the younger generation of the Copper dicine Clan, never challenged.
With such strength, how could Wang Xu be careless? He had already prepared for a decisive battle in his heart.
Yet, searching high and low for sothing that's easy to find, Wang Xu effortlessly claid the first place and naturally, would receive that peerless treasure, the Dragon Charging Pill.
"This kid's luck isn't ordinary." Copper dicine Thunder Roar heard the announcent and couldn't help but laugh and shake his head.
When he left the main clan, Copper dicine He Xian had not yet risen, but he had heard about Copper dicine He Xian's exceptional talent, surpassing anyone in the history of the Copper dicine Family, even having gained the Venerable recognition of the Palace of Truth!
In Copper dicine Thunder Roar's view, comparing Wang Xu and Copper dicine He Xian, he favored Copper dicine He Xian more, as soone even invited by the Palace of Truth is beyond Wang Xu's reach.
Therefore, Wang Xu obtaining the first position this ti was purely due to luck.
"The clan competition continues, the next challenger, choose your opponent."
Wang Xu's position as first is settled, and his challenge opportunities were of no further use, so it naturally was the next challenger's turn.
...
Wang Xu had no mind to continue paying attention to the subsequent situation of the clan competition. After devouring the core of Copper dicine Fire, Wang Xu's Constant Spirit within him suddenly expanded. He had to slowly refine this unfamiliar Constant Spirit to beco a part of himself.
As for whether others would choose to challenge Wang Xu and compete for the first-place throne, this is probably not a concern at all.
The gaps between each of the top ten ranks in the clan competition are significant. For example, Copper dicine Fire ranked second, and the third place couldn't even match him!
Now, Wang Xu crushed Copper dicine Fire on the spot with a dominating posture, his strength several levels higher than any of them, who would foolishly co and seek death?
Securely sitting in the first place position, Wang Xu quietly refined the core of Copper dicine Fire.
The clan competition finally ca to an end.
The golden ranking hovering in the air was also completely engraved on the scroll, unable to change any further.
"Today's clan competition has opened my eyes. Unknowingly, our Copper dicine Clan has so many exceptionally talented juniors. It is the glory of our Copper dicine Clan and an honor for all clan mbers!" the Clan Leader said, "Next, in accordance with the rankings on the leaderboard, please proceed to the Alchemy Room to claim your earned elixirs. As for the Secret Techniques and Truth Weapons, I will send soone to deliver them to you. I hope you all can have a brighter future!"
"Thank you, Clan Leader!" the crowd below replied in unison.
The Clan Leader flipped his hand, revealing an elixir the size of a thumb, wreathed in a faint red mist, with nine vividly depicted Golden Dragons soaring to the sky on its surface.
Roar~~
The faint red mist seed to condense into the figure of a dragon, emitting a clear dragon's roar.
As soon as this elixir appeared, everyone's eyes turned fervent, even the upper echelons of the Copper dicine Clan were no exception.
"This is the Dragon Charging Pill, and following past conventions, I will personally present this Dragon Charging Pill to the first place on the ranking!" the Clan Leader said with profound emotion. "Tai Xu, co up and receive your Dragon Charging Pill!"
Wang Xu was jolted awake from his fascination with the Dragon Charging Pill by the Clan Leader's loud voice.
Perfect, absolutely perfect!
This elixir was round and smooth, with every part full of indescribable mysteries. It was more like a masterfully crafted piece of art than sothing ant for consumption!
"Yes!" Wang Xu leaped to the openwork corridor and stood in front of the Copper dicine Clan Leader.
Copper dicine Thunder Roar looked at Wang Xu's figure, his eyes full of admiration.
"After consuming this Dragon Charging Pill, you will reach the Emperor Spirit Realm in a very short ti. But with your high talent, you might not need it to advance your realm. When you truly possess an extraordinary secret technique, use the Dragon Charging Pill to aid in cultivating the technique; only then will you truly unleash its effects," the Clan Leader advised as he handed the Dragon Charging Pill to Wang Xu.
"Clan Leader, I will," Wang Xu nodded.
"The reward for first place is not only the Dragon Charging Pill, but also secret techniques, elixirs, and Truth Weapons. Go and claim your deserved prizes."
The clan's grand competition concluded, and Wang Xu received all the benefits.
…
One of the three core main peaks of the Copper dicine Clan, Solitary Skull Peak, is a place where the Constant Spirit gathers. Cultivation here is several tis faster than elsewhere.
Originally, only the Elders and higher-ups or direct bloodline mbers of the Copper dicine Clan could reside here, but Wang Xu, who ranked first, was granted a residence and beca a new guest on Solitary Skull Peak.
As for Copper dicine Thunder Roar and others, although they did not receive as good a treatnt as Wang Xu, being able to reside on the three main peaks, they also benefited from Wang Xu's favor and were formally readmitted into the high ranks of the Copper dicine Main Clan.
"Wang Xu, are you planning to take the Dragon Charging Pill now?"
In the room, the mysterious red-robed figure of You Ji appeared, surprised, "This is the First Layer, where cultivation speed is already dozens of tis that of the Second Layer. You also live on the main peak, where cultivation speed is hundreds of tis faster than ordinary people. Why waste the Dragon Charging Pill to improve your realm?"
"No, I'm using the Dragon Charging Pill not to elevate my realm, but to cultivate 'Xiang'."
Wang Xu explained, "The realm doesn't restrict much at the mont, but 'Xiang' is different. It can greatly enhance my physical strength, providing better protection for the core and a stronger survival ability!"
Wang Xu had already reached the First Realm of 'Xiang' and possessed a physique comparable to the Early Stage of the Emperor Spirit Realm. Yet compared to a true Emperor Spirit Realm, he still had a considerable gap. He needed to quickly enhance his strength, and 'Xiang' was the best choice.
"Alright then, I initially thought you could at least get a Truth Secret Technique, but who would have thought the Copper dicine Clan to be so stingy, offering only Ordinary Secret Techniques!" You Ji sneered.
Achieving first place not only ca with the Dragon Charging Pill as a reward but also offered nurous Truth Weapons and secret techniques.
You Ji initially thought that, although the Copper dicine Clan in the First Layer couldn't compare to the core area families, it was still one of the significant clans in the middle area, yet they only presented an Ordinary Secret Technique, which You Ji didn't even value.
"The rewards are already quite good. The entire Copper dicine Clan only has two Truth Secret Techniques, and only the direct bloodline of the Clan Leader can practice them. I don't even share the Copper dicine surna, being essentially an outsider, how could they possibly give a Truth Secret Technique?" Wang Xu chuckled, shaking his head.
The truth was, Wang Xu also once believed that the Copper dicine Clan was exceedingly wealthy, intent on rewarding him richly besides the Dragon Charging Pill, but they were only ordinary items. Even the secret techniques were commons ones found in the Copper dicine City Lord's library, hardly worth ntioning.
But later on, Wang Xu learned that in the First Layer, Truth Secret Techniques were exceedingly rare, and even the Copper dicine Clan, despite its developnt till now, had only two Truth Secret Techniques in possession, exclusively for the leaders of the Copper dicine family to learn.
"There's no need to dwell on that, I'd better consu the Dragon Charging Pill first and see if I can elevate 'Xiang' to the Second Realm."
Imdiately, Wang Xu took out the Dragon Charging Pill, kept adjusting his state, and only after reaching a perfectly serene cultivation state did he place this rare King among elixirs into his mouth.
BOOM!
At once, Wang Xu's eyes widened, a silent explosion unfolded inside him, and all the Constant Spirit energy on the entire main peak quietly altered its trajectory, surging madly towards where Wang Xu was!
"You Ji! Quick! This Constant Spirit is too massive, help offload half of it!" Wang Xu shouted inwardly.
He hadn't expected the Dragon Charging Pill to bring such a terrifying amount of Constant Spirit energy. If he was initially like absorbing from a small stream, now it was as if the entire ocean was toppling down, drowning him in Constant Spirit!
"Got it!" You Ji's core swiftly began absorbing, with two cores sharing the load, the Constant Spirit energy was halved in an instant, allowing the nearly bursting Wang Xu a breath of relief.
Woosh woosh woosh~
The massive ocean-like Constant Spirit cascaded down, and Wang Xu imdiately entered the cultivation state for 'Xiang', utilizing 'Xiang' to absorb and refine the vast amount of Constant Spirit entirely.
'Xiang' did not let Wang Xu down, for even such a terrifying quantity of Constant Spirit was rely a trifle before 'Xiang', consuming as much as was brought! (To be continued.
