"Those who reach 3,500 points or more will retain their jade tokens and can participate in the second stage three days later at Chenshi (7-9 AM) with these jade tokens!"
After saying this, Sword Saint Lei Jun closed his eyes and said no more.
Shen Yunhao sighed: "If I hadn't gone to the core area to fight, relying solely on the ordinary broken swords in the middle and outer areas, I probably would have only managed to get a little over three thousand points at best..."
Looking around, the crowd was too chaotic, and they couldn't find Ning Yuyao and the others.
"We shouldn't stay here any longer. Let's go back to Wanren City and find Shuangshuang first."
With this in mind, Shen Yunhao took advantage of the commotion in the crowd and walked out of the mountain in a low-profile manner.
"Oh! What a small world..."
Shen Yunhao had only taken a few steps when several hostile auras locked onto him and blocked his way.
He looked up and immediately felt a headache coming on.
The three people before him were actually the three poisonous dogs of the Tai Xuan Dao Sect, whom he and Wu Yun'er had eliminated together in the Sword Tomb...
The reason they are called "poisonous dogs" is mainly because, as disciples of the Tai Xuan Dao Sect, they have a particular fondness for using poison.
The leading disciple sneered, deliberately raising his voice to attract many glances. "Back in the Sword Tomb, weren't you quite arrogant when you relied on the women from the Guanghan Palace to ambush and eliminate my Tai Xuan disciples? What, now you want to tuck your tail between your legs and run away?"
"..."
To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that the other party insulted Ning Yuyao, Shen Yunhao probably wouldn't have stood up for Wu Yun'er. After all, offending the Tai Xuan Dao Sect would be a huge problem for his current superhuman strength.
The reason he wanted to slip away quickly was precisely because he was worried that these guys would come looking for him.
Unexpectedly, these people seemed to have a dog's nose; they spotted him instantly in the vast crowd...
Shen Yunhao stopped and turned around with a bewildered expression. "Ah? Fellow Daoists, you must have mistaken me for someone else. I'm just a rogue cultivator, honest and law-abiding, and I never cause trouble."
"Bullshit!" another Tai Xuan disciple shouted angrily, "I'd recognize you even if you were reduced to ashes, and that Wu Yun'er from Lengyou Palace beside you! It was the two of you who ambushed the three of us!"
Seeing that he had been recognized, Shen Yunhao didn't bother to pretend anymore.
"Three grown men using underhanded tactics to bully a woman and they're quite tough?" He sneered. "Not to mention that the three of you combined are no match for Wu Yun'er, we didn't even need to launch a sneak attack. The key is that within the Sword Tomb, everyone relies on their own abilities. If you're eliminated, you can only blame your own lack of skill. What? Is this the kind of mentality you disciples of the Tai Xuan Dao Sect have?"
His loud voice immediately sparked a flurry of discussion among the onlookers.
The leading disciple's eyes instantly darkened. "Sharp-tongued! A rogue cultivator is a rogue cultivator, utterly lacking in manners! If I don't teach you a lesson today, do you think my Tai Xuan Dao Sect is easy to bully?"
Shen Yunhao was not afraid at all.
"On this mountaintop platform, under the watchful eyes of everyone, do you, who have already been eliminated, intend to disrupt the order of the conference?"
Upon hearing this, the three Tai Xuan disciples' faces immediately turned extremely ugly.
They wouldn't dare cause trouble on the territory of the Azure Sky Sword Pavilion in front of Lei Jun Sword Saint! But they really couldn't swallow their anger and lose face if they just let "Superman Qiang" go.
However, just as the atmosphere became tense and Shen Yunhao was pondering how to slip away, a gentle and calm voice broke in:
"Junior brothers, what's all this commotion about?"
The crowd suddenly parted, and a figure slowly walked out.
The newcomer was tall and slender, with a handsome face and a gentle, refined demeanor, a perfectly measured smile playing on his lips.
But Shen Yunhao's heart tightened.
The newcomer was none other than Shi Junfei, the prodigy of the Tai Xuan Dao Sect's Chronicle of Heroes!
My previous statement was mainly aimed at the disciples who had already been eliminated, but Shi Junfei was obviously not eliminated. So, are the rules set by Sword Saint Lei Jun still valid?
"Senior Brother Shi!"
Upon seeing Shi Junfei, the group seemed to have found their pillar of support, and their faces lit up with joy as they gathered around him.
However, Shi Junfei ignored the others and walked forward on his own, saying, "Fellow Daoist Superman Qiang, we meet again. It seems that you and my Tai Xuan Dao Sect are truly destined to meet..."
Upon hearing this, everyone, including the Tai Xuan Dao Sect disciples behind him, looked over in surprise.
Many people were amazed by the bizarre name "Superman Strong," but more people were intrigued by Shi Junfei's attitude towards the man.
As a top-ranked prodigy in the Chronicles of Heroes and a young powerhouse in the late stage of the Void Soul Realm, Shi Junfei's fame is obviously quite high.
If even he recognized the person in front of him and treated him with "quite politeness," then one couldn't help but suspect the identity of this Superman Strong...
Sure enough, just as Shen Yunhao became wary, he heard Shi Junfei say with a faint smile, "Fellow Daoist, you are exceptionally talented, able to withstand the sword intent of the fierce sword without perishing. Your score in the first stage is probably... among the top ten. Such talent truly surpasses that of the master..."
"Whoosh..."
The crowd erupted in uproar.
Putting everything else aside, the title of "top ten in the first stage" alone is enough to make everyone remember him!
His low-key plan also instantly failed...
It's obvious that with a score of over 9,000, he could never rank in the top ten.
The problem is, he simply can't bring out the real top ten to prove himself right now!
And even if it's proven that he's not in the top ten, so what?
"Superman Qiang" has already been exposed to everyone's attention, so there's no point in doing anything more...
Shen Yunhao suppressed the chill in the depths of his eyes and said calmly, "Senior brother is joking. How could I possibly be among the top ten? Compared to you, I have only been lucky a few times, which is not worth mentioning!"
Shi Junfei smiled faintly, "Fellow Daoist is still so modest!"
"Senior brother, you flatter me! I have important matters to attend to, so I will take my leave now!"
This statement effectively shut down any further attempts by Shi Junfei to keep him, leaving him with only a faint smile, "Then... we'll meet again another day, fellow Daoist..."
"Senior brother! He..."
At this moment, the Tai Xuan disciple next to him wanted to say something, but halfway through his sentence, he suddenly saw Shi Junfei's indifferent eyes and immediately shut his mouth.
Shen Yunhao gave Shi Junfei one last deep look, then mounted his sword and flew towards Wanren City.
Only after he completely disappeared did Shi Junfei's smile fade slightly, and he murmured softly.
"Superman Strong...who exactly are you? Interesting..."
...
"Damn it!"
Shen Yunhao, high in the sky, cursed, "I really have a grudge against the Tai Xuan Dao Sect! They always manage to ruin things for me... Luckily, I escaped quickly! I didn't get entangled by that Wu Yun'er, otherwise it would have been troublesome!"
However, just as this thought arose, a sound of wind breaking suddenly came from behind.
Shen Yunhao turned around and saw the figure in green, and was instantly terrified.
"That's really something! Speak of the devil and he appears!"
