"What a pity. If the Battle Saint King were here, these alien scum wouldn't dare to clamor like this."
Someone sighed softly. The Battle Saint King was peerless, his presence alone overshadowing all the Emperor Sons and Daughters, Immortal Dao descendants, and Supreme Heavenly Prides across the Chaos Sea.
If the Battle Saint King were still present, these alien geniuses wouldn't dare to make such a racket—they'd likely tuck their tails and flee immediately.
However, everyone knew the Battle Saint King was in seclusion, breaking through to the Ancient Sovereign realm. He had been in closed-door cultivation for two years now. Although the Emperor Realm within the Tenth Emperor's Pass was filled with the fluctuations of heavenly tribulation, a long time had passed, and it seemed the Battle Saint King had yet to truly break through.
Thus, the alien geniuses had been clamoring for three days and three nights, as if they never tired, continuously mocking and hurling various insults in an endless rotation. This infuriated the human geniuses on the Emperor's Pass, their faces dark with rage and boundless fury.
They would rather die than endure such humiliation.
Boom—
On this day, a dozen or so special figures appeared on the Tenth Emperor's Pass. Their blood and qi were exceptionally powerful, shaking the heavens as various phenomena manifested.
Their appearance invigorated the many human geniuses.
These were all super geniuses who had been training within the World Tower, among them Supreme Heavenly Prides capable of leaving their names on the Supreme Ranking. Their cultivation was at least at the Divine King level, making them extremely formidable.
These human super geniuses had heard about the alien geniuses insulting the human race outside the Emperor's Pass and had thus emerged from seclusion early to come to the Tenth Emperor's Pass.
Upon learning the situation, the group of super geniuses were all enraged, their fighting spirit surging. They directly requested permission from the Seven Great Human Monarchs to leave the pass and engage in battle.
The human Monarchs sighed. They knew that continuing to suppress their own geniuses' anger would only weaken their will indefinitely, which was detrimental to the growth of the human race's talents.
But facing these alien Emperor Sons and Daughters, unless one was also a Great Perfection Supreme Heavenly Pride, how could they be a match?
Unless absolutely necessary, the human Monarchs truly did not wish to see the slightest loss among the younger generation, who represented the future and hope.
"Your Majesty, I am willing to go out and fight. Although the opponent is an Emperor Son or Daughter, I am also a Supreme Heavenly Pride. I am sufficient for battle."
A young Divine King stepped forward, imposing and majestic, bathed in divine radiance. So young yet extraordinary, with various phenomena swirling around him, he possessed the bearing of a Supreme One.
His name was Xu Tian, a Divine King of the High-Level Supreme Heavenly Pride tier, having reached the Seven-Calamity Divine King level—a Super Divine King, a standout among his peers.
Seeing the impassioned expressions of the human geniuses, the Seven Great Human Monarchs understood that not allowing them to fight might lead to hidden trouble, given their youthful vigor. They nodded in agreement, granting permission.
Boom—
Xu Tian left the pass. Those within the Tenth Emperor's Pass could exit without restriction. He landed on the battlefield, instantly causing the earth within a radius of a hundred thousand miles to collapse.
A Divine King descended upon the mortal realm. His aura was transcendent, possessing a heaven-devouring bearing as he stood alone against the crowd of alien geniuses, his Divine King might overwhelming the heavens. He shouted, "I am the human Divine King, Xu Tian! Who dares to fight?"
"A Divine King?"
The alien geniuses, seeing someone finally emerge from the Tenfold Emperor Passes, couldn't help but sneer cruelly.
However, they did not swarm him, nor did they stoop to such tactics. One alien Divine King-level genius stepped forward, also at the Seven-Calamity Divine King level, though not an Emperor Son or Daughter, yet extremely powerful.
He was very thin and small, like a dwarf, with dark skin marked by numerous purplish-black Dao patterns. His aura was unusually fearsome, clearly also a Supreme Heavenly Pride. He said, "The one who takes your life today is Tu Fei of the Black Ancient Royal Clan!"
Boom—
After announcing their names, without much further exchange, the two stepped forward and engaged in a fearsome confrontation.
On the battlefield, Divine King-level power erupted.
There was little probing. After a few exchanges, they began employing profound divine abilities. Various Divine King spirits manifested, blasting the earth apart and causing the battlefield domain to tremble—this was a peak-level contest between Divine Kings.
In the blink of an eye, they had exchanged hundreds, even thousands, of moves, with blood light blooming from both sides.
However, it was clear that they were evenly matched, neither gaining the upper hand.
This silence fell over the human experts on the Tenfold Emperor Passes, their fists clenched tightly.
Xu Tian was among the best of the younger generation within the Tenfold Emperor Passes, especially among the Divine King rank, where he could be ranked in the top ten, even contending for the top five. Yet now he was being held back by an alien genius who wasn't even from an Emperor Clan—this was a heavy blow.
They could tell that although Tu Fei was strong, among the alien Divine King-level geniuses, he likely only belonged to the middle tier.
If Xu Tian couldn't defeat this Tu Fei, it would be a significant blow to the Tenfold Emperor Passes.
Xu Tian was clearly growing anxious as well, his transcendent Divine King aura beginning to waver.
He desperately wanted to kill his opponent, but the other's strength was clearly no less than his own. To truly achieve a kill would require thousands, if not tens of thousands, of exchanges.
Suddenly, the alien Divine King Tu Fei's aura surged many times stronger, causing Xu Tian's expression to change. He tried to resist, but it was too late.
Boom—
Tu Fei's Divine King weapon swept past, severing Xu Tian's head from his body.
At the same time, Tu Fei unleashed a fearsome divine ability, its power instantly multiplying severalfold, as if he had activated a secret technique akin to a forbidden art. It struck Xu Tian's head directly, causing it to explode instantly, along with the Divine King soul within.
The powerful soul of a Super Divine King actually couldn't withstand it, shattering just like that, its true spirit extinguished.
The remaining soul fragments were devoured in one gulp by Tu Fei, who then bit into Xu Tian's Divine King flesh-and-blood body, blood dripping, a gruesome and terrifying sight. He revealed a satisfied expression: "Human flesh and blood truly are quite good, especially from such a young Divine King. Even better."
"Xu Tian!"
The experts on the Tenfold Emperor Passes cried out in alarm, but they could only watch helplessly as Tu Fei destroyed Xu Tian's soul and devoured his flesh as if it were food, filling them with extreme rage.
Thus fell Xu Tian, a Divine King genius with the potential to one day reach the Sovereign realm.
"Who's next!"
Tu Fei held Xu Tian's severed head, bathed in his enemy's blood, appearing extremely arrogant as he roared, his arrogance on full display.
"I'll go!"
"No, let me!"
"I'll go too!"
...
Before the human Monarchs could stop them, a group of human geniuses swiftly left the pass, landing on the battlefield.
There were five of them, all uniformly Divine King-level geniuses.
"You—"
The human Monarchs were both angry and furious, but there was nothing they could do.
"Come at me together, all five of you! I don't want to waste time!"
Tu Fei was extremely arrogant, directly challenging them to attack as one.
"Hmph, dealing with you doesn't require that."
One human young Divine King said indifferently. Although Xu Tian had been slain by the opponent, proving the formidable strength of this alien Divine King genius named Tu Fei, he himself was no ordinary figure either. As his aura manifested, it was clear he was also a Super Divine King-level Supreme Heavenly Pride, and he was nearing the Eight-Calamity Divine King level, making him even stronger.
Like a comet streaking across the sky, heaven and earth rumbled as he charged fiercely at Tu Fei, launching an intense battle.
At the same time, the other four human Divine King geniuses also shouted loudly: "Who dares to fight!"
