Top Ten on the Green Emperor List
This clear and melodious voice slowly resounded. Shortly after, Lie Yun's gaze sank. His reply just now was undoubtedly admitting that he was trash.
"Who is it?"
Lie Yun coldly snorted as he looked towards the source of the voice. At the end of the road, a slender youth carrying a green coffin slowly walked over.
"Zhuowen!"
Lü Hantian's eyes flickered as he immediately laughed heartily. A relaxed expression appeared on his face, while the rest of the group also let out a soft sigh of relief.
"Zhuowen?"
Lie Yun's and Flamewing's eyes darkened as they looked at the figure. They were very familiar with this kid. Yesterday at the Moon Embracing Pavilion, this kid did not know the immensity of heaven and earth and had insulted Flamewing.
"So it's this damned little bastard. Lie Yun, when the Nine Counties Great War begins, we'll have the opportunity to torture this kid and then kill him!" Flamewing coldly said.
"Father, don't worry!
This kid will definitely die the most miserable death among the numerous geniuses in Muqin County. "Lie Yun's mouth revealed a trace of a cruel smile.
At the front of the group from Icebound County, Wen Aoxue's beautiful eyes stared at Zhuowen as ripples appeared in her eyes. Zhuowen's shocking performance at the Moon Embracing Pavilion yesterday was still constantly replaying in her mind.
Under the numerous gazes, Zhuowen slowly arrived at the group from Muqin County. After exchanging a few words with Lv Yitao and the rest, he stood in the group and silently waited for the Boundary Suppression Array to open.
Zhuowen's arrival did not cause the imperial guard commander Li Jin to show the slightest expression. Li Jin loudly shouted, "Boundary Suppression Array, open now!"
"Boundary Suppression Array, open!"
Instantly, the huge number of Imperial Guards behind Li Jin spread out like a curtain of rain, forming a strange formation. A milky white light gushed out from the Imperial Guards and swept into the sky above the [Boundary Suppressing Formation].
Rumble!
The enormous World Suppressing Great Array trembled violently. Soon after, a ray of light enveloped everyone. With a whoosh, they disappeared from the World Suppressing Great Array.
When Zhuowen and the others opened their eyes again, their surroundings had become extremely unfamiliar. They were surrounded by stone pillars that were so thick that it would take three people to wrap their arms around them. On the surface of the stone pillars, there was a huge dragon that was coiled around, looking extremely majestic.
This was a huge square paved with white marble. At the end of the square, there was a huge hall as huge as a dragon. This hall was the Azure Thearch's imperial residence, the Golden Imperial Palace.
Many people had already gathered on the steps in front of the throne room. The leader was the high-spirited Emperor Qing.
Behind Emperor Qing was a group of youths with powerful auras. These youths should be the geniuses of the Imperial Family. Among them, there were two figures standing at the front.
One of them wore a purple robe and had a scholarly smile on his face. This was the Second Prince, Huangfu Wuji.
The other person was slightly older than Huangfu Wuji; he should be around 79 years old. This youth didn't have the slightest trace of a noble aura. His appearance was ordinary, and his temperament was ordinary. Compared to Huangfu Wuji, the difference was like the heavens and the earth.
But even though this youth had an ordinary temperament, Huangfu Wuji's attitude towards him was extremely respectful, and even a bit fearful.
Huangfu Wuji's performance was naturally noticed by Zhuowen. Zhuowen frowned. This Huangfu Wuji seemed to be extremely afraid of this ordinary youth.
"Zhuowen!
You must be careful of this person. This person is the Imperial Family's First Prince, Huangfu Wudao. Don't judge him by his ordinary appearance, his strength is extremely terrifying. He is the monstrous genius that is ranked first on the Azure Imperial Proclamation. Moreover, it is said that his methods are extremely cruel. If someone were to exchange blows with him, even if it was just a simple exchange of pointers, they would either die or be severely injured. "
Beside him, Lv Yitao seemed to notice Zhuowen's gaze, and whispered to Zhuowen in a somewhat fearful tone.
Huangfu Wudao had a notorious reputation within the Imperial Capital. There was no one who did not fear Huangfu Wudao. And the reason why Huangfu Wudao was so cruel and ruthless was because of his childhood experiences.
It was said that when Huangfu Wudao was young, his talent was ordinary, and there was nothing special about his appearance. Thus, he was basically ignored by the Imperial Family. Moreover, he was ridiculed by everyone within the Imperial Capital as trash. He was humiliated and oppressed, and even narrowly escaped death.
Originally, everyone thought that Huangfu Wudao would fall because of this. But, no one thought that when Huangfu Wudao was ten years old, his cultivation would suddenly advance by leaps and bounds. His cultivation would advance at a speed that left others speechless.
In an instant, the former trash had become a genius that everyone looked up to. Because of this, Huangfu Wudao attracted the attention of the Azure Emperor, and was once again given the status of First Prince.
Perhaps because of his unfortunate childhood experiences, Huangfu Wudao's personality had become extreme and cruel. As long as he attacked, his every move would be fatal, without the slightest mercy.
When Huangfu Wudao regained his status, he sought out all those who had ridiculed him in the past and wiped them all out. His methods were extremely cruel, and it was from that moment that Huangfu Wudao's fame began.
After listening to Lv Yitao's story, Zhuowen's eyes narrowed as he stared at Huangfu Wudao. He did not expect that in his childhood, Huangfu Wudao would also be treated as trash. His experience was quite similar to his own.
However, the difference was that Huangfu Wudao's personality had already become twisted, while Zhuowen's was not.
What made Zhuowen puzzled was that if Huangfu Wudao was originally a trash with ordinary talent, then how did his cultivation advance so quickly, and even become the current number one on the Azure Emperor List?
"This Huangfu Wudao probably has many secrets on him."
As he stared fixedly at Huangfu Wudao's figure, Zhuo Wen's gaze revealed a trace of seriousness. He knew that usually geniuses that suddenly rose to prominence like this usually possessed quite a great secret, just like Zhuo Wen himself.
Perhaps because he felt Zhuowen's gaze, Huangfu Wudao's eyes slightly shifted, and suddenly met with Zhuowen's gaze. Soon after, Huangfu Wudao's mouth revealed a trace of a cruel smile, and an invisible force swept out like a bullet, rushing towards Zhuowen's forehead.
"Hmm?"
Feeling the incoming bullet, Zhuowen's pupils shrank. This Huangfu Wudao's mentality was indeed abnormal. Just by looking at him, this person actually dared to attack him.
Silently mobilizing the Mental Energy in his body, he formed an invisible Mental Energy barrier in front of him. When the bullet slammed into the Mental Energy barrier, it was like a stone falling into water, setting off waves of ripples.
"Oh?
He actually blocked it. This kid is quite interesting.
Second Brother, is that boy the Zhuowen you spoke of? "
Feeling the bullet he had condensed dissipate, Huangfu Wudao revealed a trace of a cruel smile as he spoke to Huangfu Wuji.
"Humph!
This boy is nothing to fear. In terms of strength, this boy is simply not my match. If it weren't for the fact that this boy was lucky enough to compose a song that resonated with the morning bell and evening drum, then I would not have lost that bet. "
Thinking back to yesterday's embarrassing appearance, Huangfu Wuji's eyes darkened. He coldly stared at Zhuowen's figure below, his voice indifferent.
"His strength is indeed a bit weak. To us, he is just a small character!
Our goal this time is the entrance exam of the Divine Academy!
If you want to obtain the qualifications to enter the Divine Academy, then you must enter the top five of the Azure Emperor Proclamation. "Huangfu Wudao lightly said.
"His Highness Azure Emperor has taught me for a long time. This time, entering the top five of the Azure Emperor Proclamation shouldn't be a problem." Huangfu Wuji lightly smiled.
"It would be best if you could enter the top five. Out of the five spots, if two of our royal family can appear, then we can demonstrate the majesty of our royal family." Huangfu Wudao nodded.
In front of the throne room, besides the geniuses of the royal family led by the Azure Emperor, the five great families of the Imperial City also led their own geniuses. They had already lined up on the steps.
The Grand Family's Grand Lily, the Zhu Family's Zhu Bai, the Murong Family's Murong Zhan, the Feng Family's Feng Yong, and the Cao Family's Cao Yan. These five were the most outstanding geniuses of the five great families. They all stood at the front of their respective teams, high-spirited and vigorous.
These five people were also existences in the top ten of the Azure Emperor Proclamation. Their strength was extremely terrifying, and each of them was a monstrous genius.
Zhuowen especially glanced at the Grand Lily in front of the Grand Family. This Grand Lily's appearance was indeed beautiful, but it was a pity that her aloof attitude destroyed her overall beauty.
Perhaps because she noticed Zhuowen's gaze, Grand Lily's beautiful eyes slightly turned. When she noticed Zhuowen, the corners of her mouth revealed a trace of a smile. She casually turned her head. She had recognized Zhuowen, but she didn't care too much about him.
After knowing that Zhuowen's body had a waste armor spirit, Grand Lily no longer placed Zhuowen in her eyes. This was because the gap between her and Zhuowen would only grow larger as time passed.
Besides the royal family and the five great families, there was a team standing on the other side of the Azure Emperor that attracted Zhuowen's attention. Everyone in this team wore green robes, and the back of their robes had an Azure Dragon pattern.
Moreover, standing at the front of this team was a middle-aged man in green robes. Zhuowen recognized this person. Wasn't he Aoki, who had descended upon Rattan Armor City and fought with Ba Xue?
At that time, Aoki had fought for a part of the Holy Ice Fire Symbol on Ba Xue's body. Unfortunately, he was tricked by Ba Xue and returned in defeat. As a result, Zhuowen took advantage of the situation and obtained a part of the Holy Ice Fire Symbol's origin.
At that time, Aoki had once said that he was the Palace Master of the Azure Dragon Sub Palace of the Imperial Capital. In that case, the team behind Aoki should be the geniuses of the Azure Dragon Sub Palace.
There was also a young man standing beside Aoki. However, this young man was wearing an Azure Dragon Mask, and it was impossible to see his true appearance.
This person was the number one genius of the Azure Dragon Sub Palace, Qing Yan. Qing Yan was extremely mysterious and his strength was unfathomable. Although he was only ranked fifth on the Azure Emperor List, even Huangfu Wudao was somewhat afraid of Qing Yan. This was because Qing Yan had never used his full strength.
If Qing Yan used his full strength, his ranking on the Azure Emperor List would rise a lot and he would be able to catch up with Huangfu Wudao.
As for the last person in the top ten of the Azure Emperor List, he was an acquaintance of Zhuowen. It was Guo Sheng, who carried a huge saber on his back. At this moment, Guo Sheng was standing obediently beside an old man with white hair who also carried a huge saber on his back.
The old man's eyes flickered like a lantern. Terrifying saber Qi was faintly emitted from his surroundings. This saber Qi was much more terrifying than Guo Sheng's. However, the old man's control was extremely terrifying. Even though the saber Qi had penetrated Guo Sheng's body, it did not hurt him at all.
Zhuowen knew that this old man should be Guo Sheng's master, Celestial Master Domineering Saber. He was also a Celestial Master who had comprehended the saber essence to the peak. Although he was not as strong as Lü Hantian, he was actually not far behind.
The top ten geniuses on the Azure Emperor List were basically geniuses from the Imperial Capital Prefecture. This was a kind of mockery for the geniuses from the Eight Great Commanderies who had arrived in such a grandiose manner.
"Since the geniuses from the Eight Great Commanderies have arrived, the Battle of the Nine Counties is about to begin!"
