Peerless God Emperor

In the end, their gazes all converged on one place, landing on a figure, Qin Xuan's body.    

The moment they saw Qin Xuan, one of the figures immediately revealed a strange expression.    

That figure was none other than Chi Li.    

"It should be because of the Heavenly Dragon Halberd." Chi Li muttered in his heart. This was the only possibility, but he had no idea what the actual situation was.    

His figure flickered, and in the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of Qin Xuan and elder Zheng.    

"There's nothing I can do, the Yinglong territory has bullied me too much, I have nowhere to go." Qin Xuan shrugged his shoulders, looking like he was helpless.    

elder Zheng looked at the two with an extremely strange gaze as he asked in shock, "You two know each other?"    

"Once." Qin Xuan said, as he gently nodded his head.    

"It's better if we know each other. Come, let's talk inside!" The three of them walked side by side. When the rest saw this scene, they all revealed a sharp glint in their eyes. Just who was it that needed elder Zheng to personally send them here?    

They were all chosen from the Scarlet Dragon territory, but only Chi Li was the most special.    

Unexpectedly, another person came, and the elder Zheng personally sent him off.    

What made them even more speechless was that these three people seemed to have already known each other for a long time. They were talking and laughing, feeling like they were mere bystanders with no existence at all.    

Although they had come to the Scarlet Dragon territory to repay their debt, they still held onto a sliver of hope that they could shine on the stage of the competition among the different territories. They wanted to be the focus of attention and not be like this.    

Very quickly, Qin Xuan and the other two arrived at a pavilion, and the elder Zheng looked out of the pavilion, knowing that there were many people sneaking in to see them, he said: "Everyone do not need to guess, come in, let us talk about the competition."    

As the sound of his voice faded, a sharp glint of light could be seen in the eyes of the spectators. Was the announcement about the results of the competition finally going to be announced?    

They had waited for so long just for this day, to decide who would be the final candidate for the competition.    

One figure after another appeared, all of them walking towards the same direction, and very quickly, many figures gathered in the pavilion, all of them were young Emperor cultivators, most of them were people that the Scarlet Dragon territory had groomed in the recent years, and the rest were people that had been selected.    

At this moment, they were all gathered together.    

"I know that everyone is getting impatient. The reason why the Lord sent me was to announce some matters regarding the competition." elder Zheng looked at the crowd and slowly spoke.    

The eyes of the crowd gleamed with sharpness. One of them couldn't help but ask, "The leaders of the various Great Stage battles, are they all determined by fighting methods?"    

In the past, all the cultivators of the same realm would fight together to determine who would be the strongest person, and who would be the leader of that realm.    

In the end, only five people from each realm could participate in the competition. As for the selection of the contestants, it would be decided by the leaders of the different realms, and not even the lords would be able to interfere.    

"There have been some changes this year." elder Zheng glanced at that person, and said: "Master's orders, Chi Li, is the leader of the Origin Emperor's ninth level."    

After saying that, the elder Zheng looked at Chi Li and asked: "Do you have any doubts?"    

"Nope." Chi Li nodded his head lightly, as if it was natural.    

According to their knowledge, Chi Li had only released a few abilities that day and was then chosen as the leader. Now, he was directly appointed as the leader, wasn't that a little too hasty?    

They had heard of a few things, Chi Li and Xie Yu had some conflicts, they had once fought with Xie Yu in front of everyone, and they were not willing to give up.    

Could it be that because of this, the territory thinks he is very strong?    

Many thoughts sprouted in many people's mind, but they didn't say much. Whether or not the leader was truly that powerful, they could tell with a single glance.    

After which, the gazes of the crowd shifted to elder Zheng, waiting for him to announce the next candidate for the position of leader.    

"The leader of the fifth layer stage, Qin Xuan."    

A voice came out of elder Zheng's mouth, and his gaze landed on Qin Xuan.    

"Understood." Qin Xuan cupped his hands slightly.    

In this instant, everyone's gaze froze and they couldn't react in time. They went directly to the first fifth layer stage, what about the other few Great Stage?    

Furthermore, they noticed that when elder Zheng said these words, his gaze was fixated on the person he brought here today. It was obvious that those words were directed at him.    

As the leader of the fifth layer stage Realm, this person must be extremely talented, no wonder the elder Zheng had personally sent him here.    

At this moment, the countenances of the people from the first fifth layer stage all had expressions of slight unwillingness, as they clenched their fists tightly. They had all thought that they would be chosen, but who would have thought that they would be taken away by someone from another realm.    

"The rest of the leaders will await orders from the Lord." The elder Zheng opened his mouth again.    

"Follow up order?" Everyone froze, thinking that they had misheard. They had only announced the leaders of two realms to end the competition?    

"Chi Li, Little Qin, you can begin to examine the strength of your subordinates to arrange the order of the matches." elder Zheng looked at Chi Li and Qin Xuan and said. Both of them nodded and said: "Understood."    

After that, the elder Zheng left the pavilion, he had already completed his own mission, and everything else would be left to them to handle internally.    

"Those at the ninth level of Origin Emperor, follow me." Chi Li said indifferently, and then stepped out of the pavilion.    

However, after he finished speaking, only a few people moved, and a few people at the ninth level of the Origin Emperor remained standing in place, as though they hadn't heard anything.    

Seeing that there were no reactions, Qin Xuan's eyes flashed with a strange light. It seems that this leader was not that easy to be!    

Chi Li was being ignored.    

The people from the other realms also had wonderful expressions on their faces as they watched with great interest. Since the leaders from the other realms had yet to be chosen, they might as well watch a good show.    

These days, Chi Li was extremely arrogant, he did not even open his mouth to talk to them and only came and went, he did not know how much strength he had.    

Sensing that there were a few people who had not moved, the corners of Chi Li's mouth slightly lifted in a playful smile. His footsteps paused for a moment before he continued, "I'll say it again, people at the ninth level of Origin Emperor, come with me."    

However, nothing had changed.    

They did not take Chi Li's words to heart. They were heaven's pride level experts that had been meticulously trained by the Scarlet Dragon territory, and the elders in their territory were their backers, thus allowing them to be so presumptuous.    

The territories had appointed Chi Li as their leader, but they were unconvinced. Why?    

The reason why the territory had groomed them for so many years was so that they could bring honor to the territory, but why would they allow an outsider to lead them?    

This Chi Li, was nothing more than a fake name, as for his strength, they did not see anything.    

Seeing that, Qin Xuan couldn't help but rub his forehead. Even so, he was afraid that he would not be able to escape.    

"It seems that some people really don't care about face." Chi Li spat out a ray of shadow and with a gust of demonic wind, he disappeared.    

The spectators only saw a grey afterimage flashing by at an incredible speed, like a sharp sword, as it flew straight towards one of the cultivators at the ninth level of the Origin Emperor.    

"Humph!" The man at the ninth level of Origin Emperor snorted coldly, not the least bit afraid. Terrifying demonic aura exploded from his body, and a Scarlet Dragon phantom appeared behind him.    

Chi Li's palm extended, and like a sharp blade, it seemed to be able to pierce through everything. It shined with a dark grey light, and it gave off a wave that caused one's heart to palpitate.    

"Slash!" Chi Li spat out a single word. His tone was light and relaxed, and with a swipe of his palm, a terrifying sharp blade radiance tore apart the void.    

A wave of extremely terrifying corrosive aura burst out, and with unstoppable force, it rushed into the Scarlet Dragon phantom. In an instant, the Scarlet Dragon phantom disappeared without a trace.    

"Bam!" With a loud boom, the man was sent flying by the huge force, breaking many tables and chairs, heavily hitting the wall, and then being bounced back again. He was in an extremely miserable state.    

The gazes of the crowd landed on that man, only to see that he was lying on the ground, unable to get up. Blood unceasingly flowed out of his mouth, and with a single strike, he completely lost his ability to move.    

"Trash." Chi Li indifferently swept his gaze over that person, his eyes did not have the slightest of emotions, as though he had only done something insignificant.    

"Hiss!" The rest of the people couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air, their hearts fiercely trembling. This scene was simply too shocking; it was clear that they were trying to set an example.    

The person who was sent flying was the Emperor's Peak Stage. Furthermore, he was not an ordinary person who was at the peak of the Emperor, he was a genius who had been groomed by the Scarlet Dragon territory for many years to fight for his territory.    

However, in the hands of Chi Li, he could not even take one move, the difference was too huge.    

"So powerful!" Right now, their gazes in Chi Li's direction underwent a subtle change. They were no longer as casual as before, but instead had a few more traces of fear in their eyes.    

With the combat power Chi Li had displayed just now, it was likely that none of them would be his match.    

Compared to the other people who had expressed shock, Qin Xuan was exceptionally calm. Chi Li was a descendant of an ancient beast, how could his battle prowess be comparable to an ordinary heaven's pride expert?    

"Is there anyone else who wants to try?" Chi Li's eyes swept across the rest of the people, revealing a cold expression.    

The expressions of those people all faltered, and they immediately walked out. After hearing the words of that person, how could they dare to act arrogantly? They were obviously looking for a beating.    

"Let's go." Chi Li walked out of the pavilion, and when he left, he glanced at Qin Xuan, his eyes seemed to contain a hidden meaning.    

"Ah, so much trouble." Qin Xuan sighed in his heart, it's not easy to be a leader!    

After that, Qin Xuan looked at the remaining people. Other than him, there were a total of eight people with Fifth Level of Origin Emperor Stage, and in the end, only four could be selected to participate.    

He opened his mouth and said, "People from the Fifth Level of Origin Emperor Stage, follow me out."    

The gazes of those few Fifth Level of Origin Emperor Stage experts flickered. When they thought about the miserable state that person had just been in, their bodies couldn't help but shiver.    

Although they still had some thoughts, they did not dare to express them too clearly. If this was a ruthless person, then they would be in for a disaster.    

As a result, no one dared to sing a different tune this time, and they all followed Qin Xuan out.
