Meng Zibin's face was also filled with excitement.
A handy weapon would bring a qualitative improvement to his combat power!
He reached out to grasp it and immediately heard an angry dragon's roar. It was the unsatisfied soul of the Flood Dragon within the halberd, disliking its current master for being too weak.
But Meng Zibin sneered, gripping the [Abyssal Flood Dragon Halberd] tightly in his hand, and coldly snorted inwardly, "In my hands, you will behave. You're just a broken weapon, what are you acting so high and mighty for?"
The halberd's resistance grew more intense, though only Meng Zibin could hear it.
Chu Yang said to Meng Zibin, "It's good for one person to remain rational, but in cultivation, sometimes it depends on sudden flashes of inspiration. Rationality and bravery are not conflicting qualities. You are a smart person, you should know how to balance them."
Meng Zibin bowed respectfully to Chu Yang. He respected Chu Yang from the bottom of his heart.
"I've learned, I know what to do."
"Also, take care of your girlfriend. Don't let her go berserk."
Meng Zibin thanked him again, "I know, thank you, Immortal Brother!"
The more his strength increased, the more his respect for Chu Yang grew.
When he was in the Qi Refining stage, he couldn't see through Chu Yang's cultivation. In the Foundation Establishment stage, he still couldn't, and it was even harder to see through than before.
Chu Yang then began to announce the top three.
Wang Teng was extremely excited, rubbing his hands, "It's my turn, it's my turn!"
Chu Yang glanced at him and announced, "As everyone knows, as a prodigal son, Wang Teng was already famous before he participated in the trial..."
The entire audience erupted in laughter. It wasn't that Meng Zibin couldn't stand Wang Teng; it was just that this kid had been too arrogant before!
Wang Teng's face flushed. My dear Immortal Brother, do you even hear what you're saying? Is this a compliment?
"But..." the turning point arrived.
"...I won't comment on past events. In this trial, he gave me the biggest surprise. As the only body cultivator among the top ten, he has already reached the late stage of Tendon Transformation."
"Because he chose the cultivation method most suitable for him, which is to go head-to-head with demonic beasts! A body cultivator is a profession that continuously develops human potential, constantly challenges oneself, and surpasses limits. This method is far more effective than sitting in a spirit gathering array to cultivate!"
Although the data for body cultivators was scarce, with so many people present, there were quite a few who were body cultivators. What Chu Yang was saying at this moment was very beneficial to them.
At least they now knew that body cultivation couldn't be done by staying in rooms and meditating all day.
Wang Teng's appearance had changed significantly compared to before he entered the secret realm.
His face was covered in scars, and he had grown a thick beard, making him look like a melancholy uncle.
Furthermore, due to the high-intensity continuous combat, his bloodline power had gradually been unlocked, and his muscles had grown larger.
If others hadn't witnessed his transformation process, they would never have believed it was the same person.
He excitedly walked up to Chu Yang.
Chu Yang felt a hint of killing intent upon meeting him. He genuinely worried that this kid had violent tendencies.
"Since your spiritual root attribute is practically non-existent, body cultivation is your only path. Coupled with your True Dragon bloodline, your blood energy is your primary combat method."
The previously murderous Wang Teng acted like an obedient child in front of Chu Yang, nodding frantically.
Chu Yang produced a blood-red Ganoderma. As this Ganoderma appeared, a sky-piercing surge of blood energy erupted, but Chu Yang forcibly suppressed it.
He said, "This is also a Saint Medicine, a ten-thousand-year-old [Blood Jade Ganoderma]. It contains the world's most potent blood energy, which ordinary people cannot absorb. Only the physique of a body cultivator can absorb it. After absorption, it can greatly enhance one's blood energy."
"For you, it can perfectly stimulate the True Dragon intent contained within your body."
Wang Teng listened, his blood boiling, wishing he could take it and swallow it directly!
But Chu Yang doused his enthusiasm with cold water, saying, "However, you are only at the late stage of Tendon Transformation. Consuming this now will only cause you to explode. Only when you reach the Blood Refining stage can you barely absorb this ten-thousand-year-old Blood Jade Ganoderma."
"What?" Wang Teng simply couldn't accept it. "No, no! They all have things that directly lead to qualitative changes, and mine can't be eaten directly? I can't accept this!"
Chu Yang said calmly, "Do you trust me?"
"Joking, who else would I trust if not you? Immortal Brother is my biological father!"
"Then shut up and hold onto it! Damn it, I've chosen the most suitable items for all of you. If you have any objections, keep them to yourselves!"
Wang Teng flinched his shoulders and said meekly, "No objections! I wholeheartedly agree!"
"You are a belligerent person, but also a reckless one. During combat, blood energy can make one go berserk. Don't always put yourself in a state of losing your mind. Control your blood energy to fight, don't let blood energy carry you, do you understand?"
"Yes, yes, yes! What Immortal Brother says is always right! I will engrave it in my heart!"
"Get lost!"
"Alright!"
Wang Teng, holding the ten-thousand-year-old [Blood Jade Ganoderma], left excitedly.
Although he was third, he was already very satisfied.
When he entered, he had said he would compete for first place, but he knew his limits. As long as he could surpass that kid Meng Zibin, it would be enough.
The only pity was that he wasn't as awesome as the old Taoist priest.
Now, only the first and second places remained.
Bai Nianchen looked at Li Qingyun and noticed that the kid was actually starting to get nervous, which was very rare. He had thought this kid would always remain calm.
"It's a pity that this humble Taoist still has self-awareness. It's not that I'm inferior to you, but it will take some time to catch up."
Chu Yang continued, "The remaining two are Li Qingyun, the Son of the Great Dao, and Bai Nianchen, the Innate Dao Body."
"Those who watched the live broadcast should have already guessed, there isn't much suspense. Our Daoist Bai killed ten third-tier demonic beasts, forty-two second-tier demonic beasts, and eighty first-tier demonic beasts in seven days, accumulating a total of 194 points. At the age of eighty, to still be this capable is truly admirable!"
Li Qingyun, who had been clenching his fists tightly, relaxed a sigh of relief upon hearing Bai Nianchen's points. At least the first place wasn't lost.
He himself hadn't realized that this trial had made him so anxious and worried.
"Let us congratulate the second place in this trial, the Daoist from Baishi Cave Heaven, the Innate Dao Body Bai Nianchen!"
The现场 immediately erupted in warm applause.
The cultivators from Longhu Mountain had been holding back for too long. They waited for this moment, frantically waving banners and shouting with all their might, afraid that Bai Nianchen wouldn't see them.
"Daoist Bai! Uphold the prestige of Longhu Mountain!"
"Crazy for Daoist Bai, wild for Daoist Bai! For Daoist Bai, we'll smash walls!"
"Cheer, cheer! Daoist Bai is the only legend! He'll punch the Son of the Great Dao, and kick the True Dragon bloodline!"
"......"
