Transformation Diagram: Starting as a Skinny Dog-Chapter 581 - 372: Challenge of the Ninth Realm (Part 3)
[Kuang Yuzhen...]
Chen Ku looked with surprise at these ninety-eight Taoist figures, and even the martial arts they were proficient in were noted. A thought inexplicably arose in his mind, and he mused:
"After I defeat these Martial Arts Projections, will there be Evil Qi? If that’s the case... wouldn’t this Martial Training Camp be a place where one can consistently come to cultivate Evil Qi and hone martial arts proficiency?"
Immediately, he looked through them one by one.
He wanted to select an opponent among them who practiced Divine Skills, as an experiment.
And seeing Chen Ku directly choose the difficulty level of Ninth Realm First Layer Heaven,
other students beneath the sky couldn’t help but exclaim:
"He directly chose the Ninth Realm First Layer Heaven difficulty, so confident?"
Some students hadn’t noticed that Chen Ku’s cultivation had already broken through to the Eighth Realm in the Martial Arts Stele Forest, and still thought Chen Ku’s Cultivation Realm remained at the pinnacle of the Seventh Realm after battling Jiang Hengchu.
Therefore, they believed that Chen Ku choosing Ninth Realm First Layer Heaven from the pinnacle of the Seventh Realm was leaping across seven levels, including two major realms.
Currently, only a few of the top ten on the Heroic List had such a domain.
While some people discussed,
Chen Ku had also selected his opponent within the sky.
And when this opponent appeared,
the students on the ground again cried out in surprise, involuntarily turning their heads to look in a direction.
It was a young man carrying an ancient sword, standing straight, around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, with delicate features, dressed as a scholar, sporting a small mustache at the corners of his mouth, and a face giving an impression of striking yet evil charm...
Upon seeing Chen Ku’s choice,
this young man’s eyes slightly narrowed: "He actually chose..."
Someone directly spoke up.
"Chen Ku actually chose one of our fellow students this time as an opponent, that’s the 149th-ranked ’Tang Xuan’ on the Genius List!"
Tang Xuan!
A noble yet sinister young genius swordsman, ranked 149th on the Dragon Abyss Nine Provinces Genius List, cultivated in the Eighth Realm Once Marrow Cleansing, yet possessing the prowess to battle Ninth Realm First Layer Heaven, a genius of world-shocking Six Great Limit Domains.
He hails from a power in one of the Dragon Abyss Nine States, Wuzhou, known as the ’Sealing Sword Tower’. Owing to his extraordinary talent and combat power, at just twenty-eight years of age, he already became the Deputy Commander of the Sealing Sword Tower.
This man has practiced swordsmanship since childhood and believes the sword to be the foremost of all weapons. It’s rumored that he had no master or inheritance.
Having taught himself to attain unfathomable sword skills, with his unique understanding of the sword, a month ago he defeated an old sword cultivator from Dragon Abyss with a single strike, shaming the opponent into sealing his sword and giving up swordsmanship henceforth.
It can be said that on the Genius List, the closer the ranking is to the top, the less simple the individual.
Tang Xuan, in terms of strength, Root Bone, and Qualifications, is among the top one hundred in the Divine Martial Hall recruitment.
And Chen Ku is equally dazzling, with Root Bone and Qualifications considered the biggest surprise in this recruitment.
"The battle in which Tang Xuan passed through the Martial Training Camp, I saw it. His Sword Dao has already reached a divine state, extremely arrogant, so he directly chose to leave his Martial Arts Mark in the Martial Training Camp after passing, allowing others to challenge him."
In the main hall of the Divine Martial Academy, many sect leaders were also paying attention to Chen Ku’s choice.
The Sect Master of Primordial Yang Mountain evaluated: "In this battle, Tang Xuan’s odds of winning are slightly higher, having shown the ability to crush Ninth Realm First Layer Heaven more than once. One Sword to God, after all, Chen Ku is too young. Fortunately, there’s enough time; if he loses to Tang Xuan, he still has time to challenge a weaker opponent."
After all, this is not just a simple contest, but also relates to the rule of filling the recruitment slots, so Chen Ku directly challenging an opponent like Tang Xuan is somewhat blindly overconfident.
