Chapter 987: No Fear For Being Targeted By an Alliance
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Everyone’s division and alliance was quickly completed.
“The Heaven Realm Talent Evaluation Ceremony begins now. The remaining ten people on each arena can advance to the next round!”
A dignified voice was transmitted into the boundary where the arenas were. Everyone’s expression did not change. Clearly, they were very clear about the rules of the Heaven Realm Talent Evaluation Ceremony, which was why they formed an alliance in twos and threes.
Ten persons would advance to the next round and it was not the time to decide the winner.
Among these people, Lu Xuan stood out among the crowd because he did not form an alliance with anyone.
He looked like he was going to fight alone!
With the order given, the first round of the Talent Evaluation Ceremony finally began. A great battle broke out in an instant. On this huge arena that spanned hundreds of miles, the celestial immortal experts finally headed toward their targets that they had long decided on.
Some of those who appeared to be very threatening became the targets of others.
Among them, a team of five celestial immortals flew directly towards Lu Xuan. Clearly, they intended to eliminate Lu Xuan first.
The Talent Evaluation Ceremony was very cruel. In the first round, ninety percent of the geniuses had to be eliminated. The high rate of elimination made people speechless. What was even more shocking was that the Talent Evaluation Ceremony allowed one to kill.
Unless one admitted defeat and crushed the token, no one would care if one was beaten to death.
This was the foundation of the Heaven Realm. This was also why Lu Xuan was amazed every time he thought about it. Although these people were not in Lu Xuan’s eyes, if anyone of them was placed among the mortals, he would be a once in a thousand years genius. Even if they were not pearless geniuses, they were still super geniuses.
If they were born on earth, it wouldn’t take long for them to stand out from their peers. They would learn everything very quickly, and they would be able to learn and become proficient after a while.
The Earth Federation had to protect such a genius seriously. In the future, they would become the pillars of the Earth Federation and an important figures.
However, at the Heaven Realm Talent Evaluation Ceremony, they were allowed to fight each other without caring their lives.
Moreover, the ceremony would be held every two hundred years. Every time, countless super geniuses and peerless geniuses would die, and even many legendary geniuses would die.
Over the years, the number of such cannon fodder geniuses that died in the Heaven Realm couldn’t be counted.
Only the Heaven Realm with such foundation could support such a consumption. If it was the Earth Federation, they wouldn’t be able to bear such a loss.
Even if one of them died, they would have to go to great lengths to find out the cause of death and whether or not they were targeted.
The difference between the medium-cla.s.s world and the upper-cla.s.s world was too great. And in the upper-cla.s.s world, Heaven Realm could be said to be number one.
Not to mention that in the distant past, when the Heaven Realm was truly powerful, it was more than a hundred times more powerful than it was now. That was when true super geniuses were inferior to dogs and peerless geniuses were everywhere.
The five celestial immortals pounced on him and immediately wanted to kill him. They had no intention of holding back at all. In a place where super geniuses, peerless geniuses and even legendary geniuses were everywhere, it would be crazy for them to hold back.
Lu Xuan was expressionless as he watched the celestial immortals pounced on him.
He opened his mouth and immediately spat out a mouthful of amadhi true flames, which enveloped the five celestial immortals who were pouncing on him.
The five celestial immortals didn’t even have the time to let out a miserable cry before they were blown into ashes.
The battle ended in an instant.
The five celestial immortals weren’t able to cause Lu Xuan any trouble at all.
“Who is this person? How can he be so powerful!”
The battle on this side immediately attracted the attention of the other celestial immortals.
Although these celestial immortals were all fighting against their respective opponents, they still retained some of their strength to observe the overall situation. Otherwise, if they were ambushed by someone, they would really die without even knowing how they died.
Especially when their strengths were about the same, if they were careless, they would really be courting death.
When they saw with their divine minds that Lu Xuan had burned the five celestial immortals to ashes with a mouthful of the true flames of samadhi, they were almost scared to death.
Although the five celestial immortals’ cultivation were not outstanding, they were at the middle level among them. In the outside world, they were at the level of their respective patriarchs.
They had actually been spat to death by someone with a mouthful of the true flames of samadhi. If they had not seen it with their own eyes, they would have found it hard to believe that such a person existed.
“Impossible! How could there be such a powerful existence in the first round? He’s so powerful! How could he not be a seeded contestant?”
Some celestial immortals immediately realized that something was wrong.
The Talent Evaluation Ceremony of the Heavenly Court had a system of seeded contestants. Some of the powerful existences who were famous in their respective prefectures had already been noticed by many important figures of the Heavenly Court before the Talent Evaluation Ceremony.
Therefore, they would be marked as seeded contestants. These seeded contestants would avoid the first elimination round and directly enter the top 10,000.
These people were the cream of the geniuses. Naturally, no one would object to doing so. As for the remaining fish that might slip through the net, they would be selected through the elimination round.
And with Lu Xuan’s terrifying strength, he should be a seeded contestant.
“What kind of strength is he exactly?”
Some celestial immortals felt gooseb.u.mps all over their bodies. None of them had expected that such a level of existence would be hidden in the first round of the elimination.
“He shouldn’t be a gold immortal, but he’s at least a half-step gold immortal!”
Some celestial immortals immediately reacted. If one were to become a gold immortal, the fluctuations of the laws would be different.
Compared to celestial immortals, not only did gold immortals control more laws, but their depth and breadth could not be compared at all.
“Kill him first. Otherwise, we will all die!”
At this moment, these celestial immortals reached an agreement almost instantly. It was like a shark suddenly appearing in an ordinary school of fish.
These celestial immortals immediately felt a sense of crisis.
“So what if he’s a seeded contestant? I refuse to believe that he’s so much stronger than us!”
A celestial immortal said in disbelief.
These celestial immortals had also been stimulated by their pride. After all, they were all super geniuses who had been selected by the outside world. Naturally, they were dragons among men who could cultivate to celestial immortals.
They had spent a lot of energy fighting for the spots in the Talent Evaluation Ceremony of the Heavenly Court. How could they be willing to be eliminated so easily in the first round.
“Let’s go together. I want to see if he has formidable powers. A half-step gold immortal is not a real gold immortal!”
At that moment, a celestial immortal shouted. All the celestial immortals tacitly gave up on their opponents and pounced directly at Lu Xuan.
All kinds of magical treasures and magics shone in the sky, turning into a shocking torrent that rushed toward Lu Xuan.
The entire arena was shaken by such attacks, as if the earth and mountains were shaking.
