Chapter 1273 - Chapter 1273 Chapter 18 The Four Worlds Best Gather

Chapter 1273: Chapter 18: The Four World’s Best Gather! (Requesting Monthly Votes)_3 Chapter 1273: Chapter 18: The Four World’s Best Gather! (Requesting Monthly Votes)_3 “Mmm, Senior Brother Zhen!”

The two exchanged glances, sparks flying in their eyes.

On the main stage, the Enlightened One of Heavenly Fire and the Enlightened One of the Heavenly Demon Lineage from the Nine Veins also regarded each other as adversaries, fixing their gazes on one another with a tension that was palpable, the atmosphere as tense as drawn swords and crossbows.

“Very good, very good.” Artifact Spirit Ling Yun was even happier, “With one more Grade A, we can select an even better candidate.”

And as she spoke,

Gong Yang Ce, Dugu Feihong, Bao Bucheng, Wang Luoqiu, as well as Shi Maotian from the lowest-key Kun Yuan Mountain Shi Maotian lineage in the Nine Veins of the Sacred Land, also took the stage.

Among them, Shi Maotian was a very slim and petite young girl, resembling a sprout and rather unremarkable in appearance. Usually very low-key, she was the type that could easily be overlooked.

“I am Second Rate Tianjiao of the Middle Segment,” Gong Yang Ce said coldly.

“I too am Second Rate Tianjiao of the Middle Segment,” Dugu Feihong said coldly.

“I am also Second Rate Tianjiao of the Middle Segment,” Wang Luoqiu sighed.

What?!

Three consecutive Second Rate Tianjiao of the Middle Segment, like three heavy hammers striking in quick succession, instantly extinguished the fiery anticipation between Zhen Shicong and Yu Nianyun.

“Sky Fire, Nine Lives, in this era, who doesn’t hide a card up their sleeve?” Enlightened Qi said with a laugh, “I imagine that each vein has stockpiled a lot over the years for this competition for the Saint position, right?”

He felt regretful in his heart, not expecting Gong Yang Ce and Dugu Feihong to both be of the Middle Segment of Grade A.

Well, let it be! To each their own. Luo Qiu is still very impressive.

Everyone deeply sighed, each vein clutching its resources and determination, hoping to secure a spot in the contest for the position of Saint, but never anticipated the inner contest within this year’s competition to be so severe.

After all, Jiang Zhencang from the last session didn’t even reach Second Rate Supremacy…

“Hahaha, I, Bao Bucheng, have always known that your veins are all paupers~~” The little fat guy Bao Bucheng quivered with laughter upon hearing their words, “When it comes to resources, you have to look at our Profound Pill Pavilion lineage. I am Bao Bucheng, and I humbly declare myself as Grade A of the Upper Segment.”

“I, Shi Maotian from Kun Yuan Mountain, am also of the Upper Segment of Grade A,” said Shi Maotian softly, raising her hand.

What?!

Faces all around turned as green as can be.

Having Profound Pill Pavilion muster a Grade A of the Upper Segment was somewhat expected, given their wealth. Plus, even if Bao Bucheng possessed the Upper Segment Grade A talent, his threat level wasn’t that high, given the fighting prowess of Profound Pill Pavilion…

Let it be~ It’s better to leave them some face.

But Shi Maotian was different.

The Kun Yuan Heavy Earth lineage was renowned as the “second best in defense” and “unbeatable in land combat” among the Nine Veins. Though Shi Maotian appeared frail and had an almost nonexistent presence normally, no one dared underestimate her combat strength.

Once such a person entered the battlefield, she was like an unstoppable War God!

“Hahaha, no one expected this, did they?”

The present “Mountain Master” of Kun Yuan Mountain, Enlightened One Xuantan, who also usually had little presence, now revealed a “majestic” smile, and said loudly with laughter, “In the past two contests for the position of Saint, our Kun Yuan Mountain lineage was underprepared. But this time, we aim to fight for the primary sect status.”

The vein from which the Sacred Master originates usually holds many advantages and is referred to as the “primary vein.”

At least during the tenure of this Sacred Master, they would hold a significant advantage in resources.

Such as the current Taiyi Jinyang Branch, which is considered a “primary vein”–not only do they have two Enlightened Ones with Divine Skills, but also two Great Heavenly Prouds. If Wang Ying Xuan is included, there are even three.

“Xuantan, don’t get too smug; Master Jiang’s favorite apprentice hasn’t even appeared yet,” said the Enlightened One of Heavenly Fire, his face already looking quite sour.

He thought he had hidden his cards deeply enough, yet these people, one after another, were more monstrous and secretive than the next.

Heaven knows how long they had been amassing resources in secret, preparing for this moment, even to the point of influencing the quotas of other disciples.

“Sky Fire, our Kun Yuan Mountain has been preparing for this day for hundreds of years!” Enlightened One Xuantan retorted with a sneer, “You didn’t plan far enough ahead, who else can you blame? As for Master Jiang’s beloved apprentice Wang Ying Xuan, who has always publicly claimed to be Second Rate Supremacy, she must also be hiding some strength.”

“But, at best, she could only be Grade A of the Upper Segment. Furthermore, owing to her age, that is also her weakness. Of course, if Master Jiang is willing to spend his last penny and acquire a Rank 9 Dao Pill, then we would all admit defeat.”

“Ai~ have all of you gone mad this time?” At this moment, Enlightened One Qing Song of Green Emperor Valley suddenly spoke up, his expression mixed with regret and a sigh, “When you gamble on hidden cards, naturally it’s about who can outdo the other. Master Jiang does have some family background, but whether he can save up for a Dao Pill is another matter. However…”

He suddenly smiled, then slowly stood up, continuing with his hands behind him like the ultimate winner: “Our Green Emperor Valley has wagered everything for this battle, hehehe~~~ All our resources have been laid out~~ In any case, our Green Emperor Valley thanks each vein for adding many quality assistants to our Green Fern World’s Best. I, Qing Song, believe that under the leadership of Saint Green Fern, our Sacred Lands are destined to rise rapidly and vanquish the Yinsha Sect!”

World’s Best?!

A hushed silence fell over the entire Trial Hall.

Many Enlightened Ones couldn’t help but stare solemnly at Enlightened One Qing Song, their expressions complicated and indescribable.

Is it really worth all this strife?
