"Young prodigies of the Myriad Domains, dare you compete?"
A young prodigy from the Tenfold Emperor Passes suddenly issued a challenge to the young prodigies hailing from the myriad realms.
Behind him stood a large group of young prodigies who had grown up within the Tenfold Emperor Passes. Although many appeared quite young, belonging to the new generation of proud sons, each carried a sharp, imposing aura.
This was unique to cultivators of the Tenth Emperor Pass; each had faced the alien race armies and participated in battles, forging this kind of momentum.
In comparison, the younger generation from the myriad realms on the other side seemed somewhat lacking, at the very least, they did not possess such a sharp aura.
"What is there to fear?"
Which of the young prodigies from the myriad realms capable of coming to the Tenth Emperor Pass was not a true elite? Though still young, every person present had at least reached the Saint Treasury Realm.
Among them were even some powerful individuals who, at the same age, had reached the fifth level of the Saint Treasury Realm, and some had even reached the sixth or seventh level, worthy of being called a regional proud hero, and could even be considered Saint Lord-level figures within the myriad realms.
Naturally, there were also prodigies who had long reached the Heavenly King realm. Of course, such individuals were extremely rare, countable on one hand, with only a handful present on both sides.
They were clearly the elite among the younger generation of the myriad realms, having walked much further on this path than their peers.
Moreover, they could also sense that the young prodigies from the Tenfold Emperor Passes seemed to harbor some dissatisfaction towards them, as if looking down on them, which made them snort coldly, wanting to prove their own strength.
"Come then, I'd like to see just how strong you so-called Heaven's Pride talents, who grew up in the peaceful regions of the myriad realms, really are, and if you can pass the World Tower's trial!"
That Emperor Pass young prodigy snorted coldly. In the eyes of these Tenfold Emperor Pass young prodigies, the young prodigies from the myriad realms were little different from flowers grown in a greenhouse, having not experienced the baptism of blood and fire from battles against the alien race.
"Hmph, don't end up capsizing in a ditch later," a powerful Heaven's Pride from the myriad realms spoke up. He was a renowned young king, very powerful, having reached the peak Saint Lord level.
Whether from the myriad realms or the Tenfold Emperor Passes, the young prodigies each numbered around a hundred. However, this time they would enter the World Tower together to undergo a joint trial challenge.
Regardless of anything, whichever side had someone achieve a sufficiently high result would be the victor.
Some even started a gambling pool, betting on which side would ultimately win.
Many powerful figures from the Emperor Pass heard the news and came to watch this younger generation World Tower trial competition, placing bets one after another. However, the odds were one to four, clearly indicating that more people believed the young Heaven's Pride from the myriad realms side would lose.
This made the expressions of the myriad realms young prodigies somewhat ugly, but they only snorted coldly without speaking.
Moreover, only a few young prodigies from their side threw down spirit stones betting on their own side to win; more chose to bet on the Tenfold Emperor Passes side.
"I bet the myriad realms side will win." Ye Chen silently arrived before the gambling pool and casually tossed out a lump of divine spirit source half a person's height, equivalent to over thirty million catties of spirit stones, causing many exclamations of surprise.
No one expected this unfamiliar-faced young man to be so extravagant, tossing out such a large divine spirit source, which was astonishing.
"Let's begin!"
The de facto leader of the Tenfold Emperor Passes group spoke. He was quite burly and tall, clad in armor covered with mottled battle scars, setting him apart.
However, this caused many younger generation powerhouses to exclaim in surprise, because this was an extremely terrifying young super powerhouse, far surpassing other members of the younger generation—a Heavenly King, and a supreme Heavenly King figure who had grown up bathed in the blood and fire of the Emperor Pass.
His body carried a rich, bloody aura, as if it could transform into a world of blood.
Without a doubt, although this young prodigy had only cultivated for a few hundred years, he had experienced countless battles within the Tenth Emperor Pass, making him an absolutely fearsome peerless Heavenly King.
Even Ye Chen couldn't help but take a few more glances at this burly man who resembled a vajra guardian.
The Tenth Emperor Pass was indeed the best place for growth. Having experienced the tempering of war, one grew more easily and became even stronger and more fearsome. It was a true blood-forging land for the rise and growth of the strong.
Moreover, Ye Chen could tell that this man possessed the potential to achieve Great Power status. As long as no accidents occurred, he would inevitably become a supreme Ancient Great Power in the future, with hope of achieving it within a thousand years.
Beneath the World Tower, whether the young prodigies from the myriad realms or those from the Tenfold Emperor Passes, their gazes all fell upon this burly man, with many marveling at his extraordinariness.
Some older generation figures even said, "As expected of the Grand Commander's eldest grandson. So young, yet already a Heavenly King of his generation. It seems within a thousand years, he will succeed the Grand Commander as another Ancient Great Power of the Zhao family!"
"Zhao Feng, a hundred years ago he was already a peerless genius inscribed on the King Sealing List. He's probably even stronger now."
"Having cultivated for only a few hundred years, he became a Heavenly King of his generation so early. Thinking back to when we were his age, we were probably still struggling to step into the Saint Treasury Realm."
"This generation of young prodigies is truly formidable in their youth. It's said Zhao Feng might become the next Emperor Pass Grand Commander."
"So outstanding, even within the Tenfold Emperor Passes, he's probably enough to rank among the top ten of the younger generation."
Many older generation powerhouses of the Emperor Pass sighed in amazement.
Zhao Feng, eldest grandson of the Emperor Pass Grand Commander, inherited the powerful bloodline legacy of his father's generation. Extraordinary from birth, he was a dazzlingly talented member of the younger generation within the Tenfold Emperor Passes. Having cultivated for a few hundred years, he achieved the status of a Heavenly King of his generation early on. Having experienced countless baptisms of blood and fire in the Emperor Pass, he had long since transformed, becoming strong enough, excessively strong.
Even within the Tenfold Emperor Passes, his existence pressed down on many younger generation Heaven's Pride talents, making it hard for them to breathe. He was among the ten strongest young Heaven's Pride of the Tenfold Emperor Passes.
He had hope of breaking through the limits, like those Immortal True Kings of the myriad realms, to achieve the status of a Tenfold Heaven young Supreme One, carrying great hopes placed upon him by the older generation.
An older generation figure sighed lightly, "A hundred years ago, Zhao Feng was inscribed on the King Sealing List. This time, he probably wants to impact the even higher Supreme List, to have his name inscribed upon it, leaving a fragrance for a hundred generations."
"Zhao Feng is very strong, but in the last several hundred thousand years, only Imperial Son Ye Cangqiong from the Ye family succeeded in having his name inscribed. That was a peerless, matchless Imperial Son, a true Tenfold Heaven Supreme Heaven's Pride, strong enough. It's just unclear whether Zhao Feng can follow Imperial Son Ye Cangqiong to become another Heaven's Pride with his name inscribed on the Supreme List."
Many people present sighed with emotion, though they couldn't help but marvel at Zhao Feng's potential. After all, he was the Emperor Pass Grand Commander's eldest grandson, with extraordinary talent, and had experienced countless baptisms of blood and fire in the Emperor Pass. It wasn't impossible for his name to be inscribed on the Supreme List.
"Begin!"
Zhao Feng took the lead and stepped into the World Tower, with the other numerous young prodigies from the Tenfold Emperor Passes following in succession.
Naturally, the group of young prodigies from the myriad realms also entered the World Tower. Over two hundred contemporary Heaven's Pride prodigies surged into the World Tower to undergo a special trial, to compete and see which side was truly stronger.
Among them, Ye Chen also seized the opportunity to enter the World Tower. He too wanted to see what kind of trial this special World Tower was.
Upon entering the World Tower, over two hundred young prodigies appeared together in a special place.
To be precise, it was a special world, with immortal mountains standing in groups, fragrant air flowing, resembling a pure land paradise, very peaceful and tranquil.
Was this the so-called trial within the World Tower?
The many young prodigies from the myriad realms were all stunned, dumbfounded. This was different from what they imagined. At the very least, they felt it should be similar to the Void Heaven Tower within the Void Heaven Domain.
Yet, what was this situation? It confused them.
However, the group of young Heaven's Pride led by Zhao Feng from the Tenfold Emperor Passes remained calm, having had corresponding experiences before, not surprised in the least.
Ye Chen also examined this special World Tower world with slight surprise, yet he quietly grew vigilant. He didn't believe this place would be some kind of peaceful, tranquil land; it must be filled with danger.
At this moment, a shower of light rain suddenly fell, merging into the sea of consciousness of every trial-taker. Corresponding information surged forth, immediately allowing the powerhouses to understand the true World Tower trial.
The trial involved earning points by killing enemies, from weak to strong. Each enemy body contained different colored light points, totaling seven colors: red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple. Kill enemies, obtain light points, and acquire corresponding points.
Among them, red was one point, orange ten points, yellow a hundred points, green a thousand points, and so on. Cyan was ten thousand points, blue a hundred thousand points, purple a million points!
However, besides red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple, above purple there actually existed a kind of legendary seven-colored light, worth a full ten million points!
Moreover, to be inscribed on the Heaven's Pride List required fifty thousand points!
To be inscribed on the King Sealing List required a million points!
To be inscribed on the Supreme List required ten million points!
After contacting the light rain, Ye Chen finally understood the true method for having one's name inscribed on the divine lists of the World Tower: kill enemies. The more powerful the enemy, the further back the color of the light point on their body. Also, for the same color, the more powerful the enemy, the larger the light point contained and the deeper the color, similarly yielding higher points.
Of course, the most important was the mysterious seven-colored light. If obtained, one could directly have their name inscribed on the Supreme List, passed down through the ages, praised for a thousand generations.
Moreover, after obtaining corresponding light points, a layer of colored luster would appear on the body's surface, allowing one to discern how many points oneself and others had obtained. It followed the same color distribution as the light points, and the deeper the color, the higher the points obtained.
Similarly, the World Tower had rules. Even if one had previously had their name inscribed on a list, even if inscribed on the Supreme List, upon challenging again, previously obtained points would be reset, calculated anew from the start.
This was to prevent someone from relying on accumulated points from repeated trials to have their name inscribed on the Supreme List.
Seeing this, many people breathed a sigh of relief. Otherwise, with Zhao Feng previously inscribed on the King Sealing List, he would have at least a million points, or even more, which would be very disadvantageous for the Heaven's Pride of the myriad realms side.
Boom—
Right at this moment, the tranquil pure land paradise underwent a startling change. Boundless darkness suddenly spread rapidly from the horizon, covering the sky and blotting out the sun, charging towards this region.
Within it, countless fearsome alien race powerhouses surged forth, vast and endless, too many to count, a dense, black mass.
Moreover, accompanied by immeasurable dark demonic energy boiling and rolling, submerging the heavens, crashing down, causing the entire world to tremble violently.
Without a doubt, this was a rather shocking scene. So many alien race powerhouses had appeared all at once, all charging down, almost causing everyone's expressions to change.
Not only the young Heaven's Pride from the myriad realms side, but even the young prodigies from the Tenfold Emperor Passes were the same, because the scale this time was somewhat unbelievably large.
You must know, usually when they participated in trials, there had never been an instance with so many alien race armies. Saying thousands upon thousands was an understatement; how could there be so many?
Even Zhao Feng was shocked, his expression changing, showing that even a battle-hardened Heavenly King like him was taken aback.
What was going on? How could so many alien race armies suddenly appear? It felt strange, sudden.
Within the endless alien race armies, some had bat-like wings on their backs, some were covered in red fur, and there were other kinds as well, all appearing ferocious and terrifying, riding fearsome demonic beasts as they charged forth. This peaceful pure land was instantly shattered into pieces, nothing remaining.
However, at this moment, whether the young Heaven's Pride from the Tenfold Emperor Passes or the myriad realms side could afford to care too much, because the alien race armies had already charged over, at least numbering in the hundreds of thousands, surging and turbulent as they rushed forward.
"Kill!"
The young Heaven's Pride of the Tenfold Emperor Passes truly lived up to being battle-hardened powerhouses. Stationed in the Emperor Pass year-round, they had experienced too many battles, growing up through the baptism of blood and fire. After a brief shock, they immediately drew their weapons, charging forward to engage in battle.
Naturally, which of the Heaven's Pride prodigies from the myriad realms wasn't a true elite? Their psychological quality was also extraordinary. They too drew their own Dao weapons and magic tools, charging forward to launch their assault.
The two sides collided with a thunderous roar. Although the alien race armies numbered in the hundreds of thousands, most were ordinary alien race soldiers. Moreover, whether the young prodigies from the Tenfold Emperor Passes or the myriad realms were very powerful, at least at the Saint Treasury Realm, with no shortage of Saint Lord-level Heaven's Pride prodigies, and even several Heavenly King powerhouses leading the charge. They collided with a thunderous impact.
Laws filled the sky, Dao marks scattered, burning the heavens and boiling the seas, shattering heaven and earth, extremely terrifying.
In the blink of an eye, countless alien race armies were annihilated. Although their numbers were great, they were no match for these young prodigies. Upon collision, they were as fragile as tofu.
Especially Zhao Feng. As a Heavenly King, among the top ten peerless Heaven's Pride of the Tenfold Emperor Passes, he wielded a divine sword, swinging it to unleash countless sword rays that transformed into a vast ocean surging out. In an instant, he annihilated countless alien race powerhouses.
Visible to the naked eye, the alien race powerhouses he killed all had special light points soaring into the sky, at least orange, among which were also yellow, green, and even several cyan ones. These were the true powerhouses among the alien race armies, all fearsome Saint Treasury Realm powerhouses.
Unfortunately, they encountered a Heavenly King like Zhao Feng. No matter how strong a Saint, they were annihilated, unable to withstand a single blow!
He forcefully pushed forward, countless multicolored light points along the way rushing over, merging into his body one after another. It could also be seen that the red halo on his body's surface was rapidly transforming in color at an astonishing speed, instantly reaching deep cyan.
On another side, while the various powerhouses were slaughtering the alien race armies, Ye Chen also made his move. He flicked a finger, the Spirit Rhinoceros Sword Finger shot out, accompanied by immeasurable sword energy spreading and crisscrossing. All the alien race armies ahead were wiped out, nothing remaining, countless light points merging into Ye Chen's body.
Even among them were over a dozen cyan light points. A layer of light blue radiance immediately appeared on Ye Chen's body.
It could be said that with this single move, Ye Chen had accumulated a full three hundred thousand points, enough to have his name inscribed on the Heaven's Pride List, and not at the bottom.
However, all of this was unimportant to Ye Chen. His target was the Supreme List.
Just before entering the World Tower, he vaguely heard an older generation powerhouse of the Emperor Pass mention that once inscribed on the Supreme List, one would receive a reward and be sent to a mysterious ultimate important place.
Ye Cangqiong participating in the World Tower trial was probably aiming for this. Naturally, Ye Chen wouldn't let it slip either.
He was heading straight for this goal.
"Kill, kill, kill!"
The great battle continued. Whether the many young Heaven's Pride from the Tenfold Emperor Passes or the myriad realms, at this moment, they were all killing until their blood energy soared to the heavens, continuously charging into the alien race armies, killing their way in and out seven times.
It could be seen that large numbers of alien race armies were being slain, corpses littering the ground, mountains of corpses and seas of blood, floating pagodas of gore, shattering the mountains and rivers in all directions.
Countless light points continuously flew out, merging into the bodies of these young Heaven's Pride, generating various colored lights, rapidly accumulating points, impacting the three divine lists.
Boom—
After a full half day, all the alien race armies were swept clean by the powerhouses.
Finally, Zhao Feng made his move, cleaving in two the most powerful alien race commander among the armies, comparable to the Reincarnation level. A cluster of blue light points shot out, intercepted, worth at least five hundred thousand points.
In an instant, the light on his body turned deep blue, almost shifting towards purple.
However, what he didn't know was that in the distance, Ye Chen's body was enveloped in a faint layer of purple light, which flashed once before being covered by light blue radiance!
Purple light meant a million points!
Boom—
Just when they thought all the alien race armies had been exterminated and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, the sky suddenly darkened completely. An aura filled with ominousness transmitted from the horizon.
Everyone soared into the sky, looking into the distance, including Zhao Feng, who couldn't help but suck in a cold breath.
Ye Chen's pupils also contracted slightly.
Was the trial only just beginning?
