Chapter 61: Gu Yan Breaks Through to the Imperial Level?

  Elite Disciples' Competition, Top Ten, unlike the Inner Temple Disciples' Assessment, does not require a specific ranking.

  Only the first competition!

  First!

  According to the rules of the trial, among the top ten, whoever wants to seize the first place must go on stage and accept the challenge from the other nine people. The final winner will be the champion of this elite disciple competition!

  The top ten disciples of the Elite Disciples' Competition can all enter the Sacred Realm for cultivation and become elite disciples, but the treatment received by the top ten and the first place is different.

  And the reward is heaven and earth apart.

  Firstly, a reward of 1,000 Yuan Dan, a first-grade Ding furnace of earth attribute, and 100 points!

  And the other nine people only had two hundred grains of Yuanyang Dan.

  Not to mention that the first one thousand yuan dan Yang is five times that of the other nine, just a single earth-grade primary refining dan furnace is enough to make the disciples jealous.

  The small courtyard where the inner disciples cultivate, the dan furnace is Huangpin high-grade, while the elite disciples generally have Xuanpin initial stage, mid-stage tripod furnace. Only true transmission disciples who are higher than elite disciples, that is, the imperial-level strongmen of the Wugong Temple, can possess Dipin Tripod Furnace!

  However, the first trial of the elite disciples was an exception.

  The quality of a cauldron directly affects the quality of the elixir being refined.

  The price of a good quality Ding furnace is absolutely above 10,000 yuan.

  Moreover, entering the holy land, accumulating points is very important.

  In the Holy Realm, to enter the Holy Realm's Book Pavilion, one needs to complete some tasks and accumulate points. To obtain the Holy Medicine Peak's holy medicine in the Holy Realm, it also requires using accumulated points for exchange.

  Compared with others, this 100 points is more important for Long Qingtian.

  The host, a strong martial artist, looked at the remaining ten Dragon Heaven disciples with a pleased and smiling face, saying: "You have entered the top ten, from now on you can enter the Sacred Realm for cultivation, and become elite disciples." After pausing for a moment, he continued: "Now it's time to compete for first place, who is willing to come up and accept challenges from others? Please come up!"

  In an instant, the eyes of tens of thousands of disciples in the square all focused on the ten people led by Long Jing Tian.

  However, none of the ten people in Long Qingtian's group moved.

  The entire square suddenly became very quiet.

  "Since no one is going up, I, Honghe, will go then." A voice rang out, followed by a figure leaping into the air and landing on the stage.

  It was Honghe, who ranked first on the Tian Di Bang.

  Honghe flew onto the stage, with his hands behind his back, looking around at the crowd of disciples, then gazing at the nine people from Longqingtian, and smiled: "I wonder who dares to come up and challenge me, Honghe?"

  Who dares?!

  Honghe said casually, but the surrounding disciples were shocked and looked at Long Qingtian's nine people.

  "Look, this is real power! Gu Yan and Long Tian didn't dare to go on stage, but Hong and Shifu dared, he dared to go up and accept the challenge of the other nine people!"

  "Not bad, Gu Yan, Long Qingtian, and Fan Xiang's strength is also good, but I still think highly of Hong and Shixiong."

  Those who supported Honghe's disciples couldn't help but discuss it.

  Honghe listened to the discussion of his disciples around him with a smile on his face.

  "What's going on? Is no one daring to come up?" He glanced at Gu Fan and then swept his gaze across the faces of Long Jing Tian and several others.

  According to the rules of the challenge, if no one comes on stage to challenge within three minutes, it is considered a win.

  "I'm here." Just then, a voice rang out, followed by a flash of movement, and the stage was suddenly filled with another figure - it was Gu Yan!

  Honghe saw Gu Yan step onto the stage, his smile unchanged: "I guessed it would be you first on stage, Gu Yan. You may have defeated You Cheng and are second on the Heavenly Earth Rankings, but still, you're not my match. Of course, for the sake of the Gu family's face, I won't let you lose too miserably."

  Gu Yan raised his head, a flash of golden light in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "This sentence should be said by me."

  Honghe sneered: "I know you're a Beastmaster, summon your Black Demon Tiger King, lest you lose and won't accept it later." After finishing speaking, his entire body surged with blue light.

  The air around him suddenly cooled down.

  "To deal with you, I don't even need to summon my heteromorphic beast." Gu Yan said with a calm expression.

  Honghe's eyes flashed, his blue robe suddenly rose without wind, "puffing" sounds echoed, his hands moved swiftly, high above, the sunlight suddenly dimmed.

  The multitude of disciples saw countless snowflakes suddenly floating down from high above.

  These snows are not snowflakes, but clusters of them gathered together like a block of blue ice, shimmering with an eerie blue light under the sunlight.

  In an instant, the entire arena was covered by this strange blue ice and snow.

  A chill aura spread out from the top of the platform, and the disciples around felt as if they had fallen into an icy abyss.

  "What a formidable Ice Cold Skill! Honghe Shixiong's Ice Cold Skill has already reached the fifth level!"

  "This is icy blue frost, and it's many times stronger than the freezing aura of the Luo Sea!"

  The disciples around him exclaimed in surprise.

  This Honghe and Yu Dizi Gongzi Luo Hai, who was defeated by Long Qingtian, also cultivated the Ice Cold Skill, but their powers were worlds apart.

  Honghe stood on the ice and snow, his whole momentum rising continuously, with a series of strange icy blue lights swirling up, then, he swung his hands.

  Only on the stage, countless ice blades appeared.

  These icy blades came at Gu Yan like a storm.

  Just as the ice blades were about to attack him, Gu Yan's entire body burst into golden light, and those ice blades stopped right in front of him.

  Gu Yan looked at Honghe and said slowly, "First on the Heavenly Earth Board? You're somewhat capable." Then, with a clap of his hands, these ice blades flew back in an instant, their speed even faster than when they came.

  Hong was shocked and hastily hid.

  These ice blades keep cutting from all around his body.

  "But it's time for this trial to end." Gu Yan said, and then a shocking aura and pressure emanated from his body.

  Even those two powerful warriors of the Wu Zong were shocked by this.

  "This, this is, is, an Emperor-level powerhouse!"

  "Imperial-level powerhouse, this ancient Vajra, has actually broken through to Imperial-level powerhouse!"

  Two powerful warriors of Wu Zong shouted out in surprise.

  These days, all the disciples have been spreading rumors that Gu Yan is at the peak of the 7th layer of Wu Wang, but no one expected that Gu Yan would make another breakthrough and reach the Emperor level!

  The disciples around him were all shocked and stunned.

  Martial Emperor!

  On the Azure Continent, although Wu Wang and Wu Huang are only one rank apart, their status and strength cannot be mentioned in the same breath. Once they break through to Wu Huang, they can break free from the mortal body's shackles, allowing their true self's vitality to continuously increase, and their lifespan to exceed 100 years.

  "We must quickly report to the Sect Master and the Supreme Elder, this ancient Brahman is indeed a rare talent of the ages! Among the elite disciples competing, a royal-level strong person has emerged, this is a major event!" The martial arts sect's strong practitioner who was presiding over the competition exclaimed excitedly.

  "Not bad, not bad, at that time even we two will also get rich rewards!" Another strong martial artist of the Wu Zong sect exclaimed excitedly.

  The entire square suddenly became extremely quiet.

  And on the stage, even Honghe, who was ranked first in the Tian Di Bang, looked at Gu Yan with a shocked and terrified expression.

  At this time, Gu Yan's figure flashed and he instantly appeared in front of Honghe. With a punch, the golden fist print hit his opponent's chest, causing Honghe to fly backward and crash onto the arena floor.

  The entire arena was covered in ice and snow, and then mysteriously disappeared.

  "Gu Yan, the elder brother, defeated Hong He, the first on the Heaven and Earth List!"

  "So strong, such a strong momentum!"

  "Imperial-level expert, Brother Guan, is absolutely the first in this elite disciple competition!"
