Chapter 1017
“The final level is over!” Elder Gou Huang finally announced as the clouds dispersed. All of the contestants were stunned by the intensity of that round, even the energy of the final thunder strike was still lingering on the arena, like it would burn off everything in the arena to ashes.
No one dared to mock Yi Tianyun now as they knew how powerful Yi Tianyun really was.
“d.a.m.n it!” Earth Monarch Yao Tong shouted out loud as he still saw Yi Tianyun standing up on the field after he woke up. He didn’t expect to lose to a human race like this. The same was true for Earth Monarch Yun Lei who also felt ashamed and frustrated. After all, Yi Tianyun was now free to choose any 2nd Grade G.o.d Domain to join!
Earth Monarch Tian Qing was still very calm as her petals of fire slowly disappeared. Her beautiful appearance and elegant demeanor remained as no injury could be seen on her beautiful skin. Compared with Yi Tianyun, it was really a world of difference!
Yi Tianyun took the chance to recover from his injury. His body was black from the thunder’s strike, but it was only damage to his skin. He wasn’t hurt internally, but his condition was way worse than Earth Monarch Tian Qing. Regardless of that, he already pa.s.sed the 2nd Stage perfectly!
“He really pa.s.sed!” Nian Ciyu grabbed the arms of Heavenly Edict Territory Lord excitedly. “He pa.s.sed, Territory Lord! He really pa.s.sed!” Nian Ciyu shouted excitedly. Heavenly Edict Territory Lord himself was also excited as finally, someone from his G.o.d Domain was able to join the 2nd Grade G.o.d Domain!
Nine Domain Territory Lord was losing his mind, how could such a good opportunity escape their clutch and fall to Heavenly Edict Divine Territory instead? Now, his cultivators had to partic.i.p.ate in the 3rd Stage to be selected to join the 2nd Grade G.o.d Domain, but even so, it wasn’t even certain that his cultivator could pa.s.s the 3rd Stage, while Yi Tianyun’s qualification to join the 2nd G.o.d Domain has been decided and it wouldn’t change!
“Congratulation to both of you for pa.s.sing the 9th Level of Divine Tribulation! You’ve proven yourself capable and your potential is extraordinary! Now, you can choose one of us, which G.o.d Domain would you want to join?” Elder Gou Huang said as he looked at the other 4 Elders behind him, each representing a different 2nd Grade G.o.d Domain!
The five Elders nodded as they truly wanted Yi Tianyun and Tian Qing in their G.o.d Domain as both of them were comparable if not even stronger than the cultivator on their side.
“Join our G.o.d Domain and we promise to give you better treatment and a better cultivation place!”
“Obviously, our G.o.d Domain is better as we have a lot more resources than the others!”
The five elders began to appeal to Yi Tianyun and Tian Qing as they wanted both of them to choose their G.o.d Domain. But nevertheless, it was obvious that Elder Gou Huang’s G.o.d Domain was the strongest G.o.d Domain among the five Elders! If they wanted to choose the strongest G.o.d Domain, then it would definitely be Elder Gou Huang’s G.o.d Domain!
All the other cultivators are envious of Yi Tianyun and Tian Qing for receiving such treatment from the five elders, but there was nothing they could do as they were too weak to pa.s.s the test. Everyone had the same opportunity, but they weren’t good enough!
Yi Tianyun and Tian Qing won fair and square and they were the only two cultivators that pa.s.sed the 2nd Stage among hundreds of thousands of other cultivators! This was the harsh truth of the War of Ascension. Even though they had the 3rd Stage to fall into, the 2nd Stage had already eliminated most of them.
Yi Tianyun glanced at Five Great G.o.d Domain as he hadn’t considered any one of them himself. But he knew that Elder Gou Huang is undoubtedly the strongest among the Five Great Elders.
But Yi Tianyun wasn’t sure whether Elder Gou Huang’s G.o.d Domain was good for him as good resources alone wouldn’t do, he also needed a good environment. Now for Yi Tianyun in particular, a friendly environment is the key to further increasing his cultivation. He needed a G.o.d Domain that didn’t discriminate against his race!
“Junior didn’t have the answer for that yet, Great Elders! I promise to give my answer after I finished the test on the 3rd Stage!” Earth Monarch Tian Qing said immediately. Everyone was startled as they didn’t understand Tian Qing’s decision. Elder Gou Huang already said that the cultivator that pa.s.sed the 9th Level of the 2nd Stage didn’t have to partic.i.p.ate in the 3rd Stage!
“Earth Monarch Tian Qing, I already said that you don’t have to join the 3rd Stage!” Elder Gou Huang repeated his word.
“Junior knows, but Junior wants to take the 3rd Stage to prove her strength!” Earth Monarch Tian Qing said with a smile on her face. The look on the other cultivators’ faces told everyone what they were thinking. Obviously, they knew that Tian Qing was too strong for them to handle and there was no way they would win against her!
They didn’t understand why Tian Qing would do something like this. Did she want to beat someone that badly? But it was her decision, and thus no one could refute it!
Elder Gou Huang was startled by Tian Qing’s decision as he didn’t want to break the balance too much. Elder Gou Huang knew that with her ability, Earth Monarch Tian Qing would crush anyone she went up against.
“Well, that’s alright! It’s already within the plan anyway!” Elder Heavenly Punishment gave his permission.
“Alright then!” Elder Gou Huang nodded as a signal that Earth Monarch Tian Qing was free to join the 3rd Stage. “What about you? Do you have G.o.d Domain that you want to join?” Elder Gou Huang asked Yi Tianyun.
While Earth Monarch Tian Qing chose to partic.i.p.ate in the 3rd Stage, Yi Tianyun didn’t have to do the same as they didn’t share the same option.
When Yi Tianyun was about to give his answer, Earth Monarch Yao Tong suddenly interjected. “Don’t choose just yet! Even if you could withstand the 9th Level, it doesn’t necessarily mean that you are powerful! Fight me and I will prove to everyone that you are just a weak human cultivator!” Earth Monarch Yao Tong challenged Yi Tianyun.
“That’s right! You are no more than a weak human cultivator!” Earth Monarch Yun Lei also shouted at the side as he didn’t want to watch Yi Tianyun join the 2nd Grade G.o.d Domain.
“Earth Monarch Tianyun, I think you will stay for a fight, Are you not?” Earth Monarch Tian Qing smiled at Yi Tianyun.
Yi Tianyun looked around for a second and he saw that the direction of where Earth Monarch Tian Qing was going was the same area where Earth Monarch Teg was waiting!
