Peerless God Emperor

However, the truth always seemed to contradict people's assumptions.    

Chi Li arrived at the side of the platform in the Dark Moon Region, but his footsteps still did not stop. He continued to walk forward, and the eyes of the crowd and the experts of the Dark Moon White Tiger's territory could not help but glaze over.    

Chi Li, what is he trying to do?    

Qin Xuan's eyes flashed with an interesting expression, this Chi Li was indeed an amazing person, could it be that he does not even fancy these four territories?    

Or did he want to do the opposite?    

Seeing Chi Li continuously walk past the platforms in front of the Four Great Territories, Lei Peng, Huan Long and Chi Long's eyes filled with anticipation. They only had three choices left, and maybe, they would have a glimmer of hope.    

Chi Li looked forward, his eyes as calm as water, he took a light step forward, his figure disappearing from his original position, in the next moment, he appeared on the stage of the Scarlet Dragon territory.    

The moment they saw the gray robe's figure standing on the stage, many of their pupils contracted, as if they had understood something.    

Perhaps, this was the most arrogant method.    

Xie Yu would choose the strongest Yinglong territory, then, he would choose the weakest Scarlet Dragon territory, and fight against him.    

Seeing this scene, Xie Yu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, a look of astonishment flashed past his eyes, is this guy serious?    

He originally thought that Chi Li's previous words were just to show off in front of the crowd, and that he didn't care at all. However, after seeing Chi Li's choice, he suddenly became interested.    

Regardless of this person's strength, his style of doing things suited his taste very well.    

"How bold." Qin Xuan was also praised, a look of admiration couldn't help but appear in his eyes. A true heaven's pride level expert, what they cared about was not a so-called reward. Even if they joined the weakest Scarlet Dragon territory, they would still be able to shine with the most dazzling light, and no one could ignore them.    

Not to mention whether Chi Li was able to do that, at the very least, he had done something that no one else dared to think of.    

He had a faint premonition that Chi Li would not disappoint him.    

"I never thought that there would actually be such a person in the Sky Dragon City. What a crouching tiger and hidden dragon." said softly, he was originally only here to borrow strength from the teleportation array, but the situation had developed in a way that exceeded his expectations.    

Chi Li casually revealed a few abilities, and the Scarlet Dragon territory Ranker took the initiative to invite him in.    

If such a character was willing to make a move, how could they miss it?    

The others did not object, Chi Li's stage should be the final competition, it was just a selection process, there was no need to display all of his strength.    

As time passed, fewer and fewer people went on stage. Even if they went on stage, most of them were eliminated. Only a few of them displayed extraordinary abilities and were able to gain recognition from the territory, inviting them to join.    

"Alright, let's end it here."    

The expert from Yinglong territory took a step forward and spoke to the crowd. Everyone's eyes flashed with sadness when they heard this, the meaning behind his words was clear. The Yinglong territory did not need anyone.    

But today, they had only hired three people.    

"Let's end this as well." Almost at the same time, the Undead Dark Phoenix Territory Ranker said indifferently, it was already enough to recruit people, there was no need for more people.    

After all, for every extra person they recruited, they would have to pay the price of one more person. In the end, there could only be three external helpers, and the gains would not make up for the losses.    

Afterwards, the Celestial Swallowing Python's territory, the Dark Moon White Tiger's territory, the Thunder Roc's territory, and the Illusory Dragon territory all announced that the selection was over.    

Only the Scarlet Dragon territory continued. Many people understood in their hearts that the Scarlet Dragon territory had the least recruits, and other than Chi Li, they only recruited one.    

The crowd couldn't help but look at Scarlet Dragon territory with sympathy. It was so tragic, looks like this competition wouldn't be able to escape the fate of being at the bottom again.    

Scarlet Dragon territory's group of Rankers were very embarrassed. When they saw the crowd's gaze on them, they felt very ashamed. They thought to themselves that it would be too embarrassing to not come again to recruit people.    

"Hehe, if you really can't recruit anyone, why not lower the standard. There won't be any change in the ranking." A middle-aged man from the Yinglong territory said with a smile as he looked in the direction of the Scarlet Dragon territory. It sounded like he was thinking for the Scarlet Dragon territory, but anyone could hear that it was an undisguised mockery.    

With Xie Yu joining them, coupled with the background and resources of the Yinglong territory, they had a guaranteed victory in this competition. Naturally, they had the qualifications to say these words.    

"Ao Liang, you sure are confident in yourself. Now you know that you've won?" An old man from Scarlet Dragon territory replied coldly.    

"We don't dare to say whether we win or not, but isn't it obvious that you will lose?" Ao Liang smiled, his tone extremely casual, as if he were talking in a victorious tone.    

"Boasting shamelessly!" Although he did not want to admit defeat, he knew in his heart that just Chi Li alone would not change the outcome too much. What made him even more worried was that the other territories might join hands and attack them together.    

That was what they had done in previous years.    

Originally, with the strength of their territory, they would definitely not be at the bottom. It was because the Yinglong territory and the Illusory Dragon Territory had teamed up and targeted them, causing them to be greatly injured.    

It was precisely because of this that the Scarlet Dragon territory and the Yinglong territory could be said to be as incompatible as fire and water. As long as there was any opportunity to suppress the other party, they would definitely not be lenient.    

"Considering our many years of hypocrisy, I wish that you can recruit the most monstrous genius in Sky Dragon City." Ao Liang smiled as he looked at the old man. However, his eyes revealed a hint of ridicule, he didn't even bother to conceal it.    

At this point, what kind of people could the Scarlet Dragon territory recruit?    

"Hmph, you don't have to worry about that!" The old man angrily puffed his beard and glared. Obviously, he had been enraged by Ao Liang's words.    

"elder Zheng, don't waste your breath with this kind of people. It would harm your body if you get angry too much." the man beside the old man advised.    

The expression on the old man's face finally eased up, but the anger in his heart couldn't be quelled. He had been in the Emperor Realm for thousands of years, how glorious was he? When had he ever suffered such humiliation?    

However, he still couldn't do anything. Once he started a war with Ao Liang, it would easily cause conflicts between these two great territories. At that time, it would be difficult to deal with this situation.    

With the current status of the Scarlet Dragon territory, if they really reached that step, it was very likely that they would be annexed by other territories.    

Ao Liang indifferently swept his eyes over the direction of the Scarlet Dragon territory, then left with the other experts and the three people he hired today.    

The other territories also left one after another, and when they left, they all looked at Scarlet Dragon territory, as if they were waiting to see him make a joke of himself.    

However, there was not a single person who went up to the stage in front of the Scarlet Dragon territory. After all, the Scarlet Dragon territory had previously eliminated so many outstanding people, so no one had the courage to go up now.    

For a moment, the atmosphere in the room was exceptionally awkward.    

The crowd looked at the scene in front of them, their eyes revealed interest. If no one went up, Scarlet Dragon territory would probably end his selection right?    

"How boring." Xie Yu spat out a light voice, as though he had no interest to stay any longer, and walked away.    

Seeing that Xie Yu had left, many people shook their heads, feeling bored, they then scattered, waiting for the day of the competition to come.    

Just as Qin Xuan was about to leave, he suddenly heard a teasing voice: "I wonder if the Heaven's Pride that appeared today could have taken the Heavenly Dragon Halberd away?"    

As the man's voice fell, someone immediately echoed: "The Heavenly Dragon Halberd has already been in the Sky Dragon City for tens of thousands of years, and I wonder how many peerless characters managed to obtain the inheritance of the Heavenly Dragon Halberd, but none of them managed to take it away. Although there are some extraordinary people in the Sky Dragon City now, I'm afraid only Xie Yu is capable of taking away the Heavenly Dragon Halberd."    

Many people nodded in agreement. From the looks of it, only Xie Yu had the qualifications to take away the Heavenly Dragon Halberd.    

Although Mou Peng, Gai Feng, Fu Yue and the others were outstanding, among the people who came to the Sky Dragon City in the past, there were many who were more outstanding than them. However, the Heavenly Dragon Halberd was still in the Sky Dragon City, and no one took it away.    

In order to take away the Heavenly Dragon Halberd, one needed an extremely high innate talent. As for how high it actually was, no one knew and it was possible that other conditions would be required to take it away.    

"Xie Yu, you can't take away the Heavenly Dragon Halberd either." At this moment, a voice drifted out, causing the expressions of the crowd to change as they turned their gazes onto that person.    

He said that Xie Yu could not take away the Heavenly Dragon Halberd, is this questioning Xie Yu's talent?    

"Why do you say that?" Someone looked at that person and asked.    

That person's eyes swept across the crowd, and then said indifferently: "Three days ago, I personally witnessed Xie Yu heading towards the Heavenly Dragon Halberd. Even after trying several times, he was unable to take it away, and in the end he chose to give up."    

This person's voice was like a clap of thunder as it rumbled and exploded within the crowd's mind.    

Everyone present were shocked, their eyes flashed with disbelief. Xie Yu, has he already tried?    

"Is that true?" Someone confirmed again. It was difficult to accept that even someone as strong as Xie Yu was unable to take away the Heavenly Dragon Halberd?    

"I saw it with my own eyes, how could it be fake?" That person said indifferently: "It is true that Xie Yu is outstanding, but the Heavenly Dragon Halberd has been in the Sky Dragon City for tens of thousands of years and countless proud sons of heaven have come. Since Huang Zhutian had also come before, he still hasn't taken it away.    

"Furthermore, with Xie Yu's status and background, why do you think he came to the Sky Dragon City to gain experience and not to some other place?" That person asked again. Upon hearing this, the gazes of the spectators all froze, as though they had understood something.    

So, he had come for the Heavenly Dragon Halberd?    

At this moment, it was as if a crystal clear mirror appeared in many people's hearts. They were curious about why a person like Xie Yu would come to Sky Dragon City, it was simply unimaginable.    

If it was for the Heavenly Dragon Halberd, everything made sense.    

Previously, they did not even think about this level, but because it had been too long since anyone mentioned the Heavenly Dragon Halberd, they were unable to connect the two.    

Now, everything suddenly became clear!    

Xie Yu had also come for the Heavenly Dragon Halberd, but unfortunately, he was also the same as the heaven's pride level experts who had come to the Heavenly Dragon Halberd before.
