Chapter 1497 - Chapter 1497 Chapter 1357 Leader Level Strong Ones among

Chapter 1497: Chapter 1357: Leader Level Strong Ones among Humans Chapter 1497: Chapter 1357: Leader Level Strong Ones among Humans This year’s Leader Competition is of great significance, as even the partition plan for the Northern Territory is based on the rankings from the Leader Competition.

The final stage of the Leader Competition is held by Divine Sect, which to the west has a floating battlefield known as Floating Mountain.

The scale of the Floating Mountain reminded Chu Mu of the Layered Sky Mysterious Realm not too far from World City, with the difference being that the floating mountains here were stationary.

There were hundreds of Floating Mountains, which were actually quite large rocks. The roots and the tops of the rocks were covered with vine-like plants.

Normally, this area would be covered in a white fog, and the peaks of the mountains emerging from the fog hardly differed from a beautiful mountainscape. Yet if one knew that beneath the fog lay a sky tens of thousands of feet above the ground, the scene would be immensely breathtaking.

Some of the rocks on Floating Mountain were arranged with barriers, which were the scattered seats in the Spectators’ stands. Considering Dominator Level Skills could easily impact a hundred kilometers, the mountains with seated areas were certainly protected by powerful barriers.

The final battle of the Leader Competition involved eight people.

To some extent, these eight represented the most outstanding young fighters from the major powers of Struggle Continent, and the majority of the spectators came from these major powers.

Before the game, tens of thousands of spectators took their seats according to Divine Sect’s arrangement.

Divine Sect did not treat everyone equally; seats were allocated based on the spectators’ identities, positions, and strengths.

Earth Realm rank sat here, Earth Boundary rank sat there, Earth Territory rank sat in another place.

Be it a Soul Emperor, a Soul Controller, an Immortal, a Jiang Shi, a Boundary General, a Boundary Commander, or a Boundary Lord…

One could tell whether a person was weak or strong simply based on where they sat.

On the Main Floating Mountain, where one could overlook all the smaller mountains, sat the honored Elder Lord Xiao of Divine Sect.

Ultimately, the Leader Competition was a battle for the young, and the presence of such a high-ranking figure from Divine Sect was already a great honor for all the young fighters.

Below the sect leader were the leader-level figures from the four well-established powers: Monster Beast Palace, Xuan Immortal Sect, Elemental Sect, and Palace of the Undead.

However, only Yin Ce from Monster Beast Palace and Peng Meng from Elemental Sect were present; the other two seats were vacant.

Further down were the Boundary Lord Rank individuals who were the strongest in Struggle Land, not very many in number but each undoubtedly a mighty figure whose very step could shake the Struggle Continent!

Of course, not all seats in this area were occupied by Immortal level powerhouses; some people with special identities were seated on an equal level with them, and some even had higher positions.

Among them were private rulers who controlled vast powers and resources, family leaders known far and wide, and respected personages supported by countless people.

These individuals might not have come specifically for their younger generation’s battle but were people the game organizer had to invite.

The hierarchy of power could be roughly inferred from the tiered arrangement of these seats. When Chu Mu entered the Main Floating Mountain, he made a point of noticing these individuals.

The first two people Chu Mu noticed were Lords Huang Zefeng and Li Moyu.

Their places were rather low on the Main Floating Mountain. In their own territories, Huang Zefeng and Li Moyu were supreme rulers, whose mere words could turn their regions upside down, with numerous Dominator-level powerhouses at their command.

However, in this divine mountain of the Divine Sect, in the presence of many stronger individuals, even they as Boundary Lords seemed rather pale in comparison.

The seats Chu Mu and Liu Binglan took were quite close to the two Lords, also relatively low.

Yet even so, the appearance of representatives from New Moon Land in the Main Floating Mountain stands clearly demonstrated New Moon Land’s considerably enhanced status on Struggle Continent.

“Elder Yu, we have already arranged a seat for you. Please come with me,” a young disciple of Divine Sect approached and respectfully said to Yu Bo.

Yu Bo’s seat was a bit to the back, next to Liu Binglan, which was suitable for a Holy Guard Elder. However, it was apparent that Yu Bo was well-regarded in Struggle City; he was recognized shortly after arriving.

“It’s alright; it doesn’t matter where I sit to watch,” Yu Bo waved his hand dismissively.

The disciple from Divine Sect looked embarrassed, unsure whether to stay or go.

“Elder Yu, you might as well save the junior some trouble. My master has instructed…” said the Divine Sect disciple.

Yu Bo simply couldn’t be bothered with the Divine Sect disciple any longer and knew that Chu Mu was unfamiliar with some of the strong figures in Struggle Capital. So, he began to introduce starting from the highest-ranking individual in the West Sect Sect Master on the highest seat.

“That is Sect Master Xiao. There’s no need to talk about his status and position. Qingzi saved his life, and that’s a huge favor, not only to Sect Master Xiao himself but to the entire Divine Sect,” Yu Bo started.

“Be more specific, or else I won’t know how strong this old sect leader really is,” Chu Mu said.

“Haha, you’re quite a straightforward kid,” Yu Bo laughed, then continued, “Well, let’s put it this way: Huang Zefeng and Li Moyu can only be considered at the very bottom among those of the Immortal level. They rule over the Earth Realms from the First to the Third Grade, and their strength is generally around the Low-Grade Immortal level. There is still a threshold gap between you, the young people, and them.”

“Next come the middle-tier characters of the Immortal level. Most of these middle-tier individuals are the leaders, chiefs, and mid-rank Boundary Masters of the various major powers. In fact, they control the most authority throughout the Struggle Continent and are also the most recognized and highest-ranked group among the strong ones. Yeah, yeah, only about ten of them have made appearances today.”

“Their strength is at least at the Immortal level, some higher, some lower, but more importantly, it’s the power they hold in their hands. With just one command, many Immortal-level powerhouses must strictly comply without the slightest objection, and it’s not an exaggeration to say they’re among the most powerful people in the world.”

“These are the individuals that New Moon Land temporarily cannot afford to provoke or deal with; a single one of their commands could reduce New Moon Land to ashes,” Yu Bo said solemnly.

“The ones above them are the upper-tier of the Immortal level. There are only five individuals who have arrived today – Elder Lord Xiao of the old sect, Judge Xiao of the Divine Sect, Yin Ce from the Monster Beast Palace, Peng Meng from the Elemental Sect, and Tang Ang, the mentor of Tang Zhuo,” Yu Bo continued.

Chu Mu expressed his surprise, “Old Yue’s great enemy is so powerful!”

Chu Mu had always been guessing about how strong the enemy of Old Man of Cloud Gate was, but he had not expected it to be someone at the same level as the old sect master of Divine Sect.

“Haha, an old monster who has lived for hundreds of years, how could he not be strong? Although this guy has a deep grudge with Old Yue, that matter has long passed. Tang Ang is almost at the time to retire, and even if you killed all of Tang Zhuo’s Soul Pets, he wouldn’t blame anyone. If his disciple is inferior in skills, what can he say?” Yu Bo said.

“Such individuals represent, to a certain extent, leaders of our humans. Some of them may still wield significant power, while others have transcended life, pursuing the path to undying like many other strongest creatures.”

“Regardless of their goals, they sit firmly at the very top of the human pyramid, the undisputed leaders of humanity. What else can all of us do besides revere and respect them with our hearts and souls?” Yu Bo let out a soft sigh.

Chu Mu deciphered from Yu Bo’s expression what level of figure he might be.

Chu Mu was a curious person. The concept of the Undying level always echoed in his ears, and Princess Jinrou had mentioned that the Heavenly Boundary Monument contained records of some Undying level creatures…

“So, is there anyone even stronger than them?” Chu Mu asked.

Yu Bo was taken aback, having thought that the concept of human leaders would be enough to make the kid look up and admire, yet his ambition was greater than expected.

“Chu Mu, it seems like the Immortal level is simply divided into Quasi, Low-grade, Medium-grade, High-grade, Peak, but do you know how many years it took for Tang Ang to climb from Quasi-immortal level to High-level Immortal?” Yu Bo said.

Chu Mu shook his head.

“Calculate how many years it has been since Old Yue has been guarding Cloud Gate until now,” Yu Bo said.

Chu Mu knew that the Old Man of Cloud Gate had been in the Heavenly Mountains for several hundred years. Could it be that it took Tang Ang several hundred years to climb from the Quasi-immortal level to the High-grade Immortal level over these three grades?

“You’re luckier than the rest of us, being so young and entering a level that many can’t reach in their lifetime. But sometimes many geniuses encounter the same obstacle, feeling as if fate has limited them thus far, regardless of how many more years you’ll live, you’ll only be marking time in the same place… This is also why so many people give up the path of Cultivation and instead seek power. It’s not that they want to give up; they’re acutely aware that it’s impossible to advance further through Cultivation, and they can only find a turning point through power,” Yu Bo said.

Chu Mu nodded. Yu Bo was probably trying to tell him that every rank within the Immortal level could potentially shut someone down completely.

However, Chu Mu wasn’t afraid.

On one hand, White Three’s willing sacrifice and the change in lineage endowed Chu Mu with power that others could only dream of. After breaking through this barrier, Chu Mu’s other Soul Pets were naturally keeping pace.

On the other hand, Ning Man’er’s unique existence was like holding the seed of the World Monarch Tree, a treasure fought over fiercely even by the human leaders, and it had fallen into his own hands…

And moreover…

Chu Mu turned his head and glanced at Little Mo Xie lying on his shoulder.

Would Little Mo Xie’s pace of Race Mutation stop here?

Chu Mu had a premonition it would become even stronger!

“Oooo~~~~” Little Mo Xie opened its sleepy eyes, full of curiosity as it looked at Chu Mu.

Chu Mu rubbed its fluffy ears; Mo Xie seemed to enjoy it, squinting its eyes while its nine small tails swayed gently.

Just how high would this sleepy, gluttonous, war-loving, proud little creature mutate? Chu Mu himself could not know.

Would there be a day when he grew old and it continued to explore higher realms of life? It was uncertain whether Little Mo Xie would get accustomed to not having his shoulder to snuggle into as a comfortable bed.
