Wan Hongzhuang
Chapter 167 Gathering of Ten Thousand Prides
After Elder Mingji took a sip of wine, he continued,
"In desperation, the three Tribulation Transcension stage old monsters of the Evil Moon Sect sacrificed and devoured all the living beings in the entire Jun Prefecture, including all the disciples of their Evil Moon Sect, who were also completely absorbed.
"In this way, they raised their cultivation to the peak of the Tribulation Transcension stage.
"Lei Di (Thunder Emperor) Ancestor, as expected of the most talented prodigy in the history of the Thunder Wind World, forcefully killed all three of them at the cost of serious injuries.
"After that, this place became a desert, and because of the poison of those three evil cultivators, no grass has grown here for 50,000 years!"
"These three people... are really hateful!"
Qi Manyao waved her small fist fiercely.
"When you get to that point, even if sacrificing the entire universe gives you a glimmer of hope to survive, you will not hesitate to do it.
"This is human nature, there's nothing to criticize.
"But Lei Di Ancestor is really powerful, heroic and unparalleled. He could kill three peak Tribulation Transcension stage experts.
"If I ever reach the cultivation level of Lei Di Ancestor, I will definitely do something earth-shattering."
Wan Lei, a descendant of Lei Di, picked up a glass of wine and drank it all in one gulp.
"This time, setting the venue for the competition here is suitable for you to fight without worrying about hurting other living beings.
"This Central Region has only this uninhabited area left. The nine major forces can actually make use of it. Hahaha."
"Master, let's not talk about that for now. Are you sure you want me, a Core Formation Initial Stage cultivator, to represent Tianji Pavilion in the competition? Aren't you afraid I'll embarrass Tianji Pavilion?"
"You're the only third-generation disciple. If you don't go, who will? Look at Tian Dan Pavilion, they don't even have anyone to send. Our Tianji Pavilion at least sent one person, so it's not embarrassing."
"What are a bunch of alchemists from Tian Dan Pavilion going to do in there? Compete in alchemy?
"I'm too weak. Besides, I don't even know where Tianji Pavilion is. I've never even been to my own sect, and you're already sending me out to work.
"That won't do. You have to give me some benefits, right?"
Tiansuanzi took the opportunity to express his dissatisfaction.
"What benefits do you want, kid? I'll give you some treasures to protect yourself. After this competition, you'll come back to the sect with me, and I'll train you properly."
"Then you have to give me some information, like who are the awesome people participating this time, so I can hide when I see them."
"Of course, we have information. That's what Tianji Pavilion does.
"But for you, everyone who enters is an awesome person. Wouldn't it be enough to run away when you see someone?
"Besides, it's said to be a free-for-all. Just stick close to Wan Lei, and you'll be safe, right?"
"Following him will only lead to a faster death. With his strength, the opponents he can provoke are not ordinary. Even a casual aftershock from their attacks could kill me..."
"Alright, alright, there are still three days before the competition starts. You can stay here for these three days to consolidate your cultivation and check the information."
After Elder Mingji finished speaking, he invited everyone to drink together again.
After drinking, Wan Lei, emboldened by the alcohol, shamelessly pestered Elder Xuandan for pills. Elder Xuandan couldn't resist and reluctantly gave him three Tianxuan Rejuvenation Pills.
After Wan Lei thanked Elder Xuandan profusely and sent him away, he took out the three pills and gave one each to Tiansuanzi and Ba'ernu.
After all, these two were also going to participate in the competition.
Back in the spacious room, Wan Lei took out the jade slip that Elder Mingji had given him and placed it on the table.
Instantly, the jade slip emitted light, and figures of people, along with their information, appeared before their eyes.
At the top of the list were the leaders of the disciples sent by the nine major forces, also the strongest among the Core Formation cultivators.
From the Liu family, there was an unruly youth named Liu Ao, a Gold element cultivator. From the portrait alone, one could feel the arrogance of this person.
But he also had the capital to be arrogant. The Liu family was the number one power in the Thunder Wind World, and he was the strongest young prodigy of the Liu family. His strength and background were both there.
The representative of the Fang family was two people. Ranked first was a beautiful girl, charming and moving, named Fang Huihui, also a Gold element cultivator.
"Heh, Fang Xiaoyu isn't even ranked first."
The second one was Fang Xiaoyu.
The information said:
Fang Xiaoyu, fifteen years old, Wind element cultivator, innate Wind body, cultivating the inheritance left by the first ancestor of the Fang family. She has never been defeated since she started cultivating. Although she only broke through to the Core Formation stage two months ago, she is now at the peak of the Core Formation stage. She should not be underestimated and is extremely dangerous!
Fang Xiaoyu's record above did not record her tie with an enemy named Wan Lei.
But it was to be expected. Besides the Wan family, only Fang Xiaoyu and her father were present at the time.
The news of the Wan family could not be transmitted to the Central Region, and the Fang family head would naturally not publicize the matter.
As for Fang Xiaoyu, you'd be lucky if she said a single word to you.
After Wan Lei read the information of the two girls, he sighed, "The Fang family is really declining, both of their most outstanding descendants are actually girls."
He continued to look down.
Wu family, Wu Xun, Wood element cultivator, Core Formation peak...
Zhou family, Zhou Tai, Water element cultivator, skilled in ice barrier, Core Formation peak...
Huo family, Huo Ling'er, Fire element cultivator, Core Formation peak, incompatible with Zhou Tai, they fight basically every time they meet...
Dun family, Dun Yue, Earth element cultivator, Core Formation peak...
Open Heaven Sword Sect, Jian Xunhuan...
"What a sultry name."
Tiansuanzi laughed loudly.
Yin Yang Sect, Qian Duoduo...
"This one is even more sultry. The people in the Central Region are geniuses when it comes to naming."
Kui Lian Sect, Yue Lingxi...
Wan Lei carefully read the information of these ten people. According to rumors, the top ten people on this Wan Prodigy List must be them.
After all, large families and sects have a lot of resources, so there are many prodigies. Those who can stand out among these prodigies are naturally the strongest of the strong.
After noting these ten people, Wan Lei didn't look at the subsequent information much. He just glanced at it and didn't see his name.
After all, his record was only circulating in the Lanning Kingdom. Although Elder Mingji also knew about it, there was no need to put him on the list when giving Wan Lei the information.
Late on the third night, Wan Lei was cultivating with his eyes closed when he suddenly heard a deafening roar outside.
Wan Lei suddenly opened his eyes and exchanged glances with Tiansuanzi and the others before running out together and flying into the air.
This sight shocked them greatly.
To the east, on the boundless desert, a light blue formation was slowly rising.
This formation appeared on the edge of the desert. They could not see how long it was at either end, but it extended to the end of the desert in the distance, rising along the edge of the desert.
"What a huge formation. Is it surrounding the entire desert?"
"Yes, since it's the venue for your competition, it must have a formation to support it."
Elder Mingji's voice came.
