As Gu Dan showed up, all eyes turned towards him.

Ever since Changsheng Sect nominated him, the name Kong Zhai has been subject to much criticism and was once subjected to endless abuse.

Originally, after consultation among the nine major immortal sects, the matter was brought to light at the top level. Since the Changsheng Sect didn't care anyway, they didn't mind taking advantage of it.

As a result, this kid, perhaps frightened by the huge momentum, actually disappeared. He disappeared for three years in a row and almost dragged the life and death arena to death.

I don't know how the people from Changsheng Sect persuaded him to come back. He pretended to be quite calm. People who didn't know him might really think that this guy was some kind of master!

Gaze has weight.

This is especially true for monks.

It is often said that eyes are the windows to the soul. People can feel too many emotions from the eyes of others, and it is not an exaggeration to say that both good and evil are present.

In the past, there was a handsome young man who was famous all over the world. He was watched to death by people. However, those people were just looking at him out of curiosity and admiration.

Most of the eyes now focused on Gu Dan could not be described as gentle. Just from those glances one could seem to hear the name of Kong Zhai being called out.

Probably not to brag.

"Don't worry about them."

Beside Gu Dan, his master Shen Jiangyue walked in front of him, his eyes carrying a kind of intimidating pressure.

Any malicious glances directed towards Gu Dan were forcibly pushed back by the aura of the Nascent Soul Master. Within a moment, the invisible pressure that had been silently shrouding Gu Dan was forcibly reversed by Shen Jiangyue's domineering eyes.

However, even though they can no longer see, it doesn't mean that these people can't speak.

"That's Kong Zhai, who has been enlightened for three years? The person recommended by the Changsheng Sect?"

"Why are you standing behind a woman?"

"Don't say anything nonsense. That woman is the elder of the Changsheng Sect, a Yuanying Venerable! She is now the disciple of Yuanying Venerable. What is your status? You have to hold it in even if you are dissatisfied."

"Is it so great to have a master like the Venerable? If you really have the ability, you can stand out like my senior brother. What's the point of hiding behind the Master?"

It has to be said that Shen Jiangyue's identity as a Nascent Soul Master is still very useful.

Unfortunately, it failed to change the bad feelings people had towards Gu Dan. Instead, it aggravated them and had the opposite effect.

When you want to hate someone, even if that person has not done anything, you can find countless faults with him or her.

Fortunately, Gu Dan is no fool and has long since stopped caring about the rumors from the outside world.

It is not easy to make him angry, but he would not argue with these people who are ignorant of the truth.

The vast majority of people are fence-sitters. They basically believe whatever others say. The more authoritative or capable someone is, the more truthful what they say.

What if it's wrong?

It's wrong, so what? Rumors can melt gold, do you really expect people to apologize to you?

Of course Shen Jiangyue could hear what others were saying. With the power of a Nascent Soul Master's mind and soul, many cultivators would not be able to transmit messages safely even with their mind, let alone communicate openly. Even if they deliberately lowered their voices, it would be as ridiculous as trying to cover up one's own faults.

But Shen Jiangyue would rather not hear it now.

They haven't even fought yet, so why do these bastards think their disciples are incapable?

You really look down on people!

Her pretty face was unconsciously covered with frost, and before Gu Dan was affected, her master was already a little angry.

"People without abilities are often jealous of those with natural talents. Even without evidence, they will try every means to slander them. Don't take it to heart."

Even though she was not in a good mood, Shen Jiangyue was still comforting Gu Dan.

As a master, Gu Dan has been her disciple for so long but has never had the chance to practice properly with her. The only thing she can do now is to guide her disciple more in front of the life and death arena.

"Master, don't worry. I understand."

Gu Dan was not actually angry. He didn't care about these guys, and there was no need to be angry with people he didn't care about. He was not a young and impetuous kid who would want to overturn the table if he heard a few unpleasant words.

"Well, that's good."

Shen Jiangyue looked at Gu Dan seriously, and when she found that his expression was normal, her face looked better.

Her disciple's heart was stronger than she thought. Even she could not stand being mocked by name. People fight for a breath of air, Buddhas fight for a stick of incense. Life is nothing more than fame and fortune. Reputation is very important when going out.

I hope Gu Dan can perform well in the life and death arena. At the very least, he has to kill a guy from the demon clan. This will naturally wash away the shame that he is now carrying, and all the rumors from the outside world will be self-defeating.

But if you fail to do so, the previous bad reputation that was false will become true, which is equivalent to being completely nailed to the pillar of shame, and people may spit on you when your name is mentioned.

It's just that it's not convenient for her to say these words. The pressure from the outside world is already great enough. As a master, it is natural for her to protect her disciples from wind and rain instead of removing tiles and bricks.

The two of them walked one after the other to the side of Lu Zhiming, the leader of the Changsheng Sect.

The situation is similar for disciples of other sects.

The sect leader always leads the way, followed by the Nascent Soul Master, then the geniuses selected by each sect, and finally the disciples who follow and can watch the battle nearby.

The fighting among cultivators is the ultimate expression of one's personal practice. Although the immortal path values ​​life, fighting is ultimately inevitable.

Nothing can bring out a person's potential better than the threat of death.

This is true even for observers.

Even the nine major immortal sects would not bring all their disciples to watch the fun. Most people were destined to stay in the sect and watch. However, it was difficult to feel the momentum without being on the scene. Things that were only seen on the screen were often too thin and lacked the true charm.

On the flying boat, all the people from the nine immortal sects flew down without any order of priority.

Soon after they came down, a dragon roar that shook the heavens and the earth echoed here.

The faces of some monks with low cultivation base couldn't help but turn pale, but fortunately, the human race immediately pushed back with their aura and would not allow the demon race to show off their power here.

The sound of a dragon's roar spread out, but after a moment, the dragon disappeared. Instead, a "person" walked towards the location of the nine immortal sects.

It roughly looks like a human, and can even be considered handsome among humans, but it has two pairs of dragon horns on its forehead and fine scales can be vaguely seen on its neck.

There is no doubt that this person is a dragon transformed.

The bodies of most monsters are huge, and dragons are even more so. If they all revealed their true forms, there would be a sense of oppression, but the problem is that they are too big a target and it would be inconvenient.

The human race also has the concept of Dharmadhatu. It doesn't make much sense to compare who is bigger or smaller. Appearance is not important. In the end, the truth will be revealed with your hands.

Ao Guang broke into the place where the nine immortal sects were located alone, and the attention that Gu Dan had originally received was given to him in a super-doubled manner.

Unfortunately, Ao Guang didn't care. His golden eyes that clearly didn't belong to humans scanned the area and he said, "Are all the people who should be here here? You've been dragging it out for so long, I thought you didn't dare to fight anymore."

"Stop talking nonsense. Why are you here? Where are the people from the Pantheon?"

The leaders of the nine immortal sects did not give him any face. The dragon clan was indeed not weak, but they could not represent the demon clan and could only be regarded as a part of the demon clan.

The demon race’s true ruling hierarchy is called the Pantheon, which is roughly equivalent to the status of the nine great immortal sects in the human race’s world of immortal cultivation.

If you want to have a say in the nine major immortal sects, you have to be at least at the same level.

Sending representatives of the Dragon Clan to negotiate with the nine major immortal sects?

But I won't give it this face. It would completely weaken my own momentum and lower my status.

"Haha, I'm just here to ask, have the previously established rules been changed?"

Ao Guang smiled indifferently, but with a bit of ferocity, "As for our Tianjiao, you will naturally see him when we fight in the life and death arena."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"He is hiding his head and showing his tail, and he doesn't know what he is talking about."

The human race's side is almost an open card, mainly because the competition among the human race is particularly fierce. If you don't become famous, why should you give up the opportunity to an unknown guy when the time comes?

However, the demon race places special emphasis on bloodline, which can indeed bring them extraordinary power. On the contrary, they do not need to hold sect competitions or other methods to select disciples like the human race does.

In addition, it is not easy for humans to infiltrate the demon race, let alone the Pantheon. It is almost like a dream. If a person with such ability is really talented, it might be a waste to send him to lurk in the Pantheon.

The competition among the human race is fierce, but the geniuses selected are truly worthy of the title.

The bloodline of the demon race is supreme, and the geniuses will appear without having to choose themselves, which makes them more concealed.

But no matter what, in the end it all comes down to the real skills in your hands. If you don't have the strength, it will be useless no matter how well you hide it.

"It's good that the rules haven't changed. Prepare to arrange for your genius to appear."

Ao Guang had already gotten the answer he wanted, so he turned around and left without looking back, obviously not wanting to stay here any longer.

"Let's talk about the rules of fighting in the life and death arena again."

After Ao Guang left, Changsheng Sect's leader Lu Zhiming said, "A total of ten geniuses will represent the human race's cultivation world and fight in the life and death arena of the Golden Core Realm.

There are three ways to win a battle: the first is to kill the opponent, the second is to make the opponent surrender, and the third is to leave the range of the battle.

No matter which method you use, as long as you achieve it, you win! At the same time, the person who has already won can choose whether to fight the next opponent until he feels exhausted or defeated. "

Although it is called a life and death arena, it does not mean that only one person must survive, but it means that life and death do not matter.

Otherwise, the nine major immortal sects would not be willing to send out their strongest geniuses.

It would be great if you could defeat your opponent, but if you have already tried your best and continue to persist after you have exhausted all your strength, it may not be a good thing.

Regardless of whether the ten people selected have any controversy or not, they are all assets to the human cultivation world and have promising futures.

Even if they were really powerless after a bloody battle, the strong men from the nine immortal sects were not blind and could accept it.

Of course, if you sense that your life is in danger, surrender immediately or find a way to escape from the fighting range, and directly give up the fight and choose to escape. Haha, you can escape in the life and death arena, and it depends on whether the Immortal Sect allows you to return alive.

Actively surrendering is just to tell these geniuses that it is not a situation where they will die. No one has ever thought that someone can take on ten people at once. It is not impossible to give up actively after the performance meets everyone's expectations, as long as you try your best.

Even though he had already proven himself and was known to everyone as the invincible formation master in the Golden Core Realm, no one dared to hold such high expectations. They all thought that his one-on-three fight was just proving himself once again.

We can't really let Zhen Chi die of exhaustion on the life and death arena, right? "Do you have any objections?"

After reiterating the rules of the life and death arena, Lu Zhiming looked at the geniuses who were recommended one by one.

No one raised any objections, as they had already known this clearly when they arrived.

"very good."

Lu Zhiming nodded slightly and said, "Do your best and show your style, so that the demon race and the Pantheon can see our strength.

Other venerables, please arrange what needs to be arranged."

As soon as he finished speaking, a Nascent Soul Master from each of the nine major immortal sects flew out.

The aura of the spell shone, and a mark with a distinct aura condensed in the area of ​​hundreds of miles at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The area circled by these Yuanying masters is the boundary of this "arena".

The battlefield covers an area of ​​several hundred miles, which is not small even for cultivators who have reached the Golden Core Perfection stage. It is enough to give them space to maneuver without being too limited by the limitations of the stage itself.

In addition to those Yuanying masters who marked the range of battle, there were also masters who joined forces with each other. The spiritual energy flowed and eventually turned into a water mirror that replaced the sky, just covering the marked battle area below.

After all, there are very few people who can watch the battle in person, and disciples from other large and small sects will of course be curious about the process and outcome of this battle.

The world of immortal cultivation has plenty of ways to solve this problem.

For example, the sky curtain that was cast at this time could almost synchronously reflect everything that happened in the life and death arena to the human cultivators who could not come here to watch the battle.

It is no exaggeration to say that once you step onto the stage, most of the cultivators in Yuantian Realm will focus their attention on you.

Every performance will become a topic of conversation among others in the future.

If you perform too badly, not only yourself but also the entire sect will be hated, and the pressure will be extremely great.

After the sky curtain was successfully arranged, the ten geniuses were also brought together.

The leading Yuanying Master asked, "Who among you wants to lead the charge?"

On the human side, there has always been a saying of a good start.

In the first battle, it would be best to kill the opponent directly, which would greatly boost the momentum of the human race and would be a good start.

But the first person to go into battle will inevitably receive the most attention. The Pantheon is no pushover, and if he loses, the only way to atone for his sin is to die.

Before anyone could speak, Wang Qingtian of Jiange said, "Don't we have a rare genius here who has been enlightened for three years? I think we should just let him fight ten people at once. Why send him to lead the charge?" (End of this chapter)
