Chapter 654: Chapter 655: Northern Region Genius

Martial Arts Tournament, unless it had already been among the top ten in the last edition or were Martial Artists who had entered the realm of Gui Xu Tian, were not permitted to participate.

The remaining Martial Artists were all eligible to participate, so many were present not just to compete for the top ten but to hone their skills during the Martial Arts Tournament.

Each battle in the Martial Arts Tournament was a true fight to the death, providing a great training opportunity for those who partook.

Core Disciples from Beimang Academy, like these, had always participated in this Martial Arts Tournament without ever aiming for the top ten, and this time was no exception.

Apart from these Core Disciples of Beimang Academy, Chu Fengmian also noticed, in another area, a group of Martial Artists gathered.

These individuals, all dressed in blood-red garments with an aura of demonic intent, were instantly recognized by Chu Fengmian.

All these Martial Artists were disciples of the Earth Demon Sect.

As the only force within the Northern Region that could contend head-on with Beimang Academy, the prowess of the Earth Demon Sect was extremely formidable.

Indeed, due to the fierceness of the infighting within the Earth Demon Sect, which was much more brutal than in Beimang Academy, their Disciples’ capabilities were even stronger.

The last tournament’s biggest dark horse, the Poison Hand Demon Lord, was a disciple of the Earth Demon Sect.

Among these Earth Demon Sect Disciples, there was one strongest figure who caught Chu Fengmian’s attention.

It was an extremely young man, but his complexion was always incredibly cold, deterring anyone from approaching.

Despite appearing young, the Spiritual Power contained within this young man was undoubtedly strong, and Chu Fengmian could even sense that his power was not inferior to that of the patriarch of the Sikong family, Sikong Jingsheng.

This level of power would qualify him as a top expert even in Beimang Academy.

Now unexpectedly within the Earth Demon Sect, there existed such a figure, especially since this person’s realm was at the limit of Divine Power Realm and had yet to surpass the life-and-death calamity.

Once he surpassed this life-and-death calamity, his power would become even more terrifying.

"This is the leading disciple of the current generation of the Earth Demon Sect, Cold-faced Demon Lord, ranking second in the Hundred Absolute List of the Northern Region."

Han Yueli said as she looked at the young man.

"Is this person the Cold-faced Demon Lord?"

Chu Fengmian asked after hearing Han Yueli’s words, turning his eyes towards the young man.

The name Cold-faced Demon Lord was familiar to Chu Fengmian; in the Northern Region, he was considered a formidable character.

One of the martial arts families of the Northern Region, the Su family, had been destroyed single-handedly by this Cold-faced Demon Lord.

The Su family was a clan that stood on equal footing with the Sikong and Gongyang martial artist families, and yet it was obliterated by this Cold-faced Demon Lord alone.

Even the patriarch of the Su family, a figure at the peak of the Life and Death Realm, was killed by him.

This battle had made the Cold-faced Demon Lord famous, propelling him to the second rank on the Hundred Absolute List of the Northern Region.

"Look, that’s the Cold-faced Demon Lord!"

"Just as the rumors describe, cold and ruthless, his power is truly monstrous."

"In this Martial Arts Tournament, he is one of the most likely candidates to compete for the first place, almost certainly securing a spot among the top ten."

Various Martial Artists also noticed the presence of the Cold-faced Demon Lord, and each one participating in this tournament regarded him as a formidable enemy.

After all, in the Martial Arts Tournament, whoever was unlucky enough to encounter the Cold-faced Demon Lord was almost certainly doomed to lose.

Aside from the Martial Artists of the Earth Demon Sect, Chu Fengmian saw many other gathered crowds, including disciples from various martial arts families.

Such as the disciples from the Canglan and Feng families.

There were also disciples from second-tier forces.

Although these second-tier forces could not match the colossal powers of Beimang Academy and the Earth Demon Sect, they still had the capability to nurture several strong warriors.

In the list of the top hundred martial artists in the northern region, the majority of the martial artists didn’t actually come from these two major powers; there were also quite a few from other forces and sects.

"Ye Tianjun didn’t come?"

Chu Fengmian swept his gaze around and spoke with slight surprise.

Ye Tianjun, Chu Fengmian had indeed never met him, but Ye Tianjun possessed one of the Innate Divine Bodies—the Chaotic Divine Body.

With a body full of chaotic power, one could recognize him at a glance.

Chu Fengmian swept his gaze around again and almost didn’t encounter this kind of chaotic power, not even seeing a single disciple of the Holy Party.

This struck Chu Fengmian as strange.

The Holy Party was the largest faction within Beimang Academy, filled with numerous powerful figures. There was no reason for the disciples of the Holy Party not to attend this martial arts gathering.

"Ye Tianjun will definitely come."

Han Yueli spoke calmly from his side.

Ye Tianjun’s realm had now reached the very limit of Divine Power, where he had stayed for quite a long time.

It wasn’t that Ye Tianjun couldn’t pass the Life and Death Tribulation, with his current strength, invoking the Life and Death Tribulation was incredibly easy.

Just like Chu Fengmian, Chu Fengmian could also invoke the Life and Death Tribulation almost instantaneously if he wished.

But Chu Fengmian was accumulating experience; he wanted to encounter adventures, build enough foundation, and then prepare to overcome the Life and Death Tribulation.

Ye Tianjun’s thoughts were the same as Chu Fengmian’s.

This realm of Gui Xu Tian was exactly the place with countless adventures. There was no reason for Ye Tianjun not to come this time.

"What position does Ye Tianjun hold in the list of the top hundred in the northern region?"

Chu Fengmian finally asked.

Facing the list of the top hundred in the northern region, Chu Fengmian didn’t know much about it. Ye Tianjun was undoubtedly the foremost person in Beimang Holy Territory.

But placed in the entirety of the northern region, Chu Fengmian was not sure of his exact position.

"Ye Tianjun ranks third on the list of the top hundred in the northern region," Han Yueli spoke.

"But that was his ranking before he encountered the fortuitous adventure. Now that Ye Tianjun has received the inheritance from the Ruyijun’s cave, his strength, I’m afraid, has become even stronger."

Third place...

This ranking mildly surprised Chu Fengmian; originally, seeing the Cold-faced Demon Lord ranked first,

Chu Fengmian had thought Ye Tianjun would be the top rank in the list of the top hundred in the northern region.

Unexpectedly, someone else held the first position.

"Boom!"

In the midst of this conversation, far away, right in front of the south gate of Martial King City, a massive crack suddenly appeared.

The surrounding space was shredded, and from it, numerous figures emerged.

These people, every one of them, harbored an extremely exquisite chaotic power.

"People of the Holy Party!"

"The people of the Holy Party have come!"

Countless eyes also shifted their gaze over.

This group was indeed the people of the Holy Party, and at a glance, there were as many as several hundred people.
