My Master Knows It All

In the blink of an eye, only Xingchen Zi and Fang Shengqing were left on platform number nine.

Xingchen Zi had previously attacked others, which inadvertently left Fang Shengqing alone.

The arrogance previously evident on Fang Shengqing’s face was no longer visible. Although he remained on the platform, he had been pierced by Xingchen Zi’s sharp sword and later struck by the divine skills of eight other cultivators.

Those eight cultivators, although far inferior to him, were still existences at the Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection stage. After successive attacks, his injuries had become extremely severe by now.

Even though he now faced Xingchen Zi one-on-one, he still had little power to retaliate. In a short time, he was pierced by a sword and flew off the platform.

The people on the peaks on both sides sighed in exclamation.

"Unexpected, truly unexpected, that a master at the Golden Core Period Limit was eliminated in the first round."

"That opponent of his, although not at the Golden Core Period Limit, would probably still be undefeated even if another person at the Golden Core Period Limit came up."

"Yes, who would have thought that someone possesses such strength."

"That person’s physical body is truly powerful."

In just one battle, almost everyone’s eyes were focused on Xingchen Zi, after all, he had defeated someone at the Golden Core Period Limit.

Moreover, with the end of the first round, Fang Shengqing became the only contestant at the Golden Core Period Limit to be eliminated.

On other platforms, those at the Golden Core Period Limit, although targeted in various ways, still relied on their own strength to successfully advance to the next round.

Among them, there were those who were heavily injured.

In the past, when everyone’s cultivation base was weaker and resources more limited, such severe injuries might have taken a long time to heal, but now, not to mention resources...

With so many True Immortal Realm experts present, how could they not heal their injuries?

Just simply supplying immortal energy would be enough.

The following matches for Xingchen Zi proceeded relatively smoothly, without encountering opponents as formidable as Fang Shengqing at the Golden Core Period Limit.

Unconsciously, the tournament had reached its final round.

With success, Xingchen Zi defeated his opponent, entering the top thirty-two, and simultaneously earned the opportunity to represent the entire Human Clan in combat.

After the tournament concluded, many continued to look toward Xingchen Zi.

They could clearly see, this little fellow was wearing a mask, arousing quite a bit of curiosity about whose disciple this was.

Although they could discern his appearance through the mask, considering he was merely a disciple at the Golden Core Stage, how could they recognize him?

Among the crowd, Immortal Lord Xiong Dao did not leave. Although his disciple had been eliminated, it would have been rather unseemly for him, as the Vice Sect Hierarch of a great teaching, to leave directly because of it.

At this moment, seeing the tournament conclude, he looked at the person who had eliminated his disciple still wearing a mask and couldn’t help but remind those around him, "Ladies and gentlemen, shouldn’t this disciple remove his mask by now?

After all, he will represent our Human Clan in the competition among the Eight Clans. When the time comes, the cultivators from other Clans, especially the ones from the Sky Clan, likely won’t allow someone to participate in the competition wearing a mask, right?"

Several cultivators in the surrounding area frowned upon hearing this.

"It’s quite possible."

"Perhaps he will remove his mask by then."

"Since the Clan Leader hasn’t said anything, there’s no need to be concerned. Besides, even if he wears a mask, so what?

One can glance and see he belongs to the Human Clan, and that’s enough."

"Yes, let’s go."

Even though people were curious about whose disciple this masked contender was, their statuses were insufficient to cause them to pursue it further.

In fact, Xingchen Zi wore a mask primarily to prevent his fellow Hundred Peaks Sect members from knowing it was him. As for others, especially those experts, even if they saw him, they would not be able to identify whose disciple he was.

Although representatives for the competition among the Eight Clans had already been chosen, the battle time had not yet arrived, so everyone returned as they pleased. Of course, if someone wanted to stay within the Hundred Peaks Sect, that would not be an issue either.

This time within the Hundred Peaks Sect, besides Xingchen Zi, there was also another disciple from the Flying Immortal Peak, Qin Zhonghai, who could represent the Human Clan in the competition among the Eight Clans.

After making a round outside, Xingchen Zi, led by Wan Ren Di, quietly returned to the Hundred Peaks Sect, and then he headed to the Four Treasures Peak, proceeding to climb the Yin Yang Peak of the third senior brother.

Previously, at the Yin Yang Peak, under the rigorous training of his third senior brother, his progress had been rapid. He wanted to see if, in these final years, he could reach the Golden Core Period Limit under his third senior brother’s guidance!

His time entering the Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection was too brief; normally, he truly couldn’t reach the Golden Core Period Limit.

Cao Zhen felt that even he could not make his own little disciple quickly breakthrough to the Golden Core Period Limit. He didn’t know what method Xiang Ziyu used, yet indeed before the competition among the Eight Clans, allowed Xingchen Zi to break through to the Golden Core Period Limit!

Of course, it was only his mana reaching the Golden Core Period Limit. Even Xiang Ziyu couldn’t make Xingchen Zi’s physical body reach the Golden Core Period Limit in such a short time.

Unknowingly, a decade had passed since the assembly of the various clans.

Cao Zhen personally led a group of Golden Immortal Realm experts to re-enter the Central Continent.

Each clan had already dispatched their respective clan’s Golden Core Stage experts.

Even the Insect Clan was no exception. Although they could not send a queen bug to participate in combat, they could send 128 Golden Core Stage soldier bugs to fight.
