Spirit General Challenge!

"The Fire Division's Year-End Competition officially begins!"

As the Fire Division leader Fen Cang finished speaking, the atmosphere on the massive mountain peak instantly reached its peak.

A vast, dark sea of people spread out, countless voices converged and finally soared into the sky, even tearing apart the clouds thousands of feet above.

The central area of the mountain is also quite peculiar; it is not an ordinary plaza, but an extremely large cone-shaped area.

The ground is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, and above it are hundreds of huge plazas crisscrossing each other. These plazas are clearly divided, and the number of plazas decreases as you go higher up.

The highest point, in particular, is almost level with the huge arena, and there is only a plaza there.

Clearly, those who participate in the Year-End Competition must start from the lowest plaza and rush all the way up to the highest plaza to face their final opponent!

Meanwhile, on the peculiar arena, figures were flashing and darting about, and powerful bursts of Yuan energy were erupting. Clearly, the Year-End Competition had begun!

"Personal disciple, Li Mingsheng!"

"Disciple in name only, Zhu Jin!"

"."

The atmosphere on the massive arena was incredibly intense. Competition within the Yuan Sect was fierce, and this Year-End Competition was crucial to their performance and achievements throughout the year. All the disciples were doing their best to showcase the results of their hard work.

Therefore, there were quite a few bloody incidents during the competition, but neither the referees on the fighting platform nor the high-ranking officials like Fen Cang in front of the square seemed to take it all for granted, their faces indifferent and not caring at all.

"Bang!"

In one area, a powerful burst of Yuan energy suddenly erupted, and two figures immediately crossed paths.

One of the figures was so blasted away that he was sent flying backwards, finally crashing heavily to the ground.

"Disciple Mo Tie wins! Disciple Lin Luo loses!"

A faint shout rang out on the dueling platform, but it caught the attention of Lin Langtian, who was sitting steadily on the high platform.

Seeing that Mo Tie had actually defeated a veteran disciple of the Fire Division, even though he seemed to be struggling, Lin Langtian couldn't help but nod in approval.

Although he had only recently joined the Yuan Sect, Mo Tie had been trained alongside Lin Langtian in the Ancient Battlefield, so his perseverance and foundation were not bad.

In addition, Lin Langtian gave the latter a generous amount of resources a few days ago, so Mo Tie's strength has now reached the Six Yuan Nirvana. Although it is not very strong, it can still achieve a good ranking in the Year-End Competition.

Thinking of this, Lin Langtian looked around the entire arena and noticed that Ling Zhi and Liu Yuan had also defeated their opponents and advanced to the next round.

In addition, most of the old subordinates of the Yan Alliance who had followed him to join the Fire Division had also defeated their first-round opponents.

For a new disciple, this performance is already considered extremely outstanding, after all, not everyone is as monstrous as Lin Langtian.

"Oh, it seems that the new disciples who joined the Fire Division this year are quite good. In previous years, most of these promising talents were absorbed by the Heaven Division." Fen Cang glanced across the vast field and noticed the outstanding performance of Mo Tie and the others, and said indifferently.

"Yes, that's quite good." A Fire Division steward nodded and then said, "Moreover, among the registered disciples, nearly a hundred people may have the opportunity to be promoted to Fire Division disciples this time."

Upon hearing Fen Cang nodded slightly. Although there are many nominal disciples, only those who reach the disciple level can form the true foundation of a sect.

Improving the number of disciples by a hundred at once is not small. Compared to the other Seven Divisions, it may not be considered particularly good, but it is not particularly bad either.

"Speaking of which, isn't Lin Langtian already aiming for the position of Spirit General? I wonder if he will challenge Ling Chi during this Year-End Competition."

Yan Ba to the side, crossed his arms and looked down at the eight Personal Disciple Grand Disciple on the tall platform in front of him, and said.

"That's probably unlikely. Lin Langtian is a new disciple who has only been in the sect for a few months. It's already a miracle that he has been promoted to the position of Personal Disciple Grand Disciple. It's probably too early for him to challenge for the position of Fire Division Spirit General."

"Perhaps we'll have a chance at the next Year-End Competition Year-End Competition, or even the one after that," a Fire Division steward said after a moment's hesitation.

"That's not necessarily true."

Fen Cang suddenly spoke, his cloudy old eyes looking at Lin Langtian, and he narrowed his eyes slightly, saying, "This boy was able to escape from the Blood Horn Region and was even personally summoned by the Sect Leader, so he must have his own secrets."

And don't forget, a genius from the Low-level Dynasty has risen step by step to this level; there's nothing that couldn't happen to him.

"If Lin Langtian becomes Fire Division Spirit General, I'd really like to see if this lad can subdue the Chaos Abyssal Demon Flame."

"Him?"

A hint of doubt appeared on Yan Ba's rugged face, followed by a disdainful remark. "How could a new disciple like him accomplish something that none of my predecessors in the Fire Division have been able to do?"

Upon hearing this, Fen Cang closed his eyes slightly and said nothing more.

He only had a few guesses about Lin Langtian.

As time passed, the battle on the arena gradually came to an end, and the fluctuations of Yuan energy gradually subsided.

Meanwhile, the assessment results and promotion status of all disciples in the Fire Division are being processed at breakneck speed, as this is the ultimate goal of the Year-End Competition.

However, these promotions usually involve a disciple being promoted from a registered disciple to an ordinary disciple, or an ordinary disciple being promoted to a personal disciple.

As for a direct disciple being promoted to the Personal Disciple Grand Disciple, that is extremely rare.

After all, as the most prestigious Personal Disciple Grand Disciple in the Fire Division and even the Yuan Sect, achieving this level is naturally not easy.

In the Fire Division years, only Lin Langtian, the champion of the Hundred Dynasties War, has been able to squeeze into the ranks of the Personal Disciple Grand Disciple in such a short period of time, which is why it is so shocking.

Personal Disciple Grand Disciple are so difficult to advance, then the replacement of Spirit General is even less likely to occur during the Year-End Competition.

However, Lin Langtian, who was sitting on the high platform, narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at the Year-End Competition that was about to end. Then, he leaped up and, dressed in a green robe, gracefully landed on the square in the center of the competition platform.

Call out!

The sound of wind breaking through the air rang out rapidly in the sky. On the mountaintop, all eyes were instantly drawn away, and they all looked at the Figure in Green Robes in the center of the square with some surprise.

Lin Langtian, the eighth Personal Disciple Grand Disciple of the Fire Division!

As the fastest person in the history of the Fire Division to be promoted to the position of Personal Disciple Grand Disciple, Lin Langtian undoubtedly enjoys a very high reputation within the Fire Division.

Whether these people were envious or jealous, they all looked at Lin Langtian with awe in the face of his formidable strength.

Zhang Hao also noticed Lin Langtian's actions at this moment. He was stunned for a moment, and then seemed to think of something. He sneered sarcastically, "What an arrogant guy. He actually wants to replace Senior Brother and take the position of Spirit General so quickly."

"Hmph, I was actually looking for an opportunity to deal with you, but you insisted on courting death. Not long ago, my Senior Brother's Flame Emperor Canon also fused with a powerful flame. This time, you've really bitten off more than you can chew!"

Whoosh!

At this moment, Lin Langtian was unaware of Zhang Hao's thoughts. He simply rode the wind and landed in the center of the square under the watchful eyes of everyone.

After landing gracefully, Lin Langtian cupped his hands in greeting to Fen Cang and other high-ranking Fire Division in front of the square, and then chuckled, "This disciple believes that the Year-End Competition is not over yet."

"Oh, why do you say that?"

Fen Cang slowly opened his cloudy eyes, his gaze sweeping over Lin Langtian, and said calmly.

Lin Langtian didn't keep them in suspense and said directly, "Reporting to the leader, the reason it hasn't ended is because this disciple wants to challenge Senior Brother Ling Chi."

"Whoosh!"

As soon as Lin Langtian finished speaking, it caused an uproar in the audience!

On the spacious platform, the atmosphere suddenly became quieter because of Lin Langtian's request to fight. Many disciples of the Fire Division looked at each other, and then their faces showed shock.

Challenging Senior Brother Ling Chi in the Year-End Competition is something that has never happened in the Fire Division in recent years.

As the Fire Division Spirit General in the Yuan Sect, second only to the Three Young Kings, Ling Chi's strength would rank him among the top four even among the Eight Spirit Generals.

Although Lin Langtian and Ling Chi were both Personal Disciple Grand Disciple, in the eyes of others, there was clearly a significant gap between them.

Mo Tie and the others in the audience were also surprised and looked at Lin Langtian with some worry. They regarded the latter as their backbone and were naturally happy to see Lin Langtian's status rise in the Fire Division. But was it too fast for him to challenge for the position of Spirit General so quickly?

After all, in the Fire Division, Ling Chi's reputation far surpasses Lin Langtian's...

However, under the watchful eyes of nearly ten thousand Fire Division disciples, Lin Langtian remained calm and composed, his face showing no change in expression, as if he were completely confident.

At the head of the square, Fen Cang glanced at Lin Langtian, his old eyes showing no surprise whatsoever, clearly having anticipated this scene.

"As the Personal Disciple Grand Disciple, you can challenge Spirit General Ling Chi. According to the competition rules, if you win, you will automatically take over the latter's position. If you lose, you will not be allowed to challenge for three years. Have you thought this through?"

"Reporting to the Minister, this disciple has made up his mind," Lin Langtian.

Upon hearing this, Fen Cang nodded slightly and said nothing more. Then, on another high platform, Ling Chi slowly stood up.

Looking down at Lin Langtian in the square, Ling Chi's crimson eyes flashed with a hint of killing intent, then his lips curled into a slightly ferocious smile.

"Junior Brother Lin, I thought you would wait until the next year-end conference to challenge me."

"Hehe, a year is too long, we should seize the day. I am also very interested in the position of Spirit General," Lin Langtian said with a faint smile.

"Hmph, I'm afraid you have the idea but not the strength. The eight Spirit General of the Yuan Sect are not positions that anyone can take just because they want to!"

Ling Chi let out a cold laugh, lightly touched the stone platform with his toes, and his figure soared out like an eagle, appearing directly in front of Lin Langtian.

With a wave of his sleeve, a tremendous surge of Yuan energy swept out, drawing gasps of amazement from many disciples.

Despite feeling the oppressive Yuan energy emanating from Ling Chi's body, Lin Langtian's expression remained unchanged.

After a series of fierce battles against experts at the Life Profound Stage in the Blood Horn Region, Ling Chi, at the peak of the Nine Yuan Nirvana Stage, is not weak, and is even comparable to Ying Xiaoxiao, but he does not pose much of a threat to Lin Langtian.

Meanwhile, around the plaza, after the two confronted each other, nearly ten thousand disciples of the Fire Division began to discuss the matter animatedly.

"This Senior Brother Lin is truly arrogant. He's only been in the Yuan Sect for less than half a year, yet he dares to challenge Senior Brother, a Spirit General, in strength?"

"Tch, what do you know? It's said that when Senior Brother Lin Langtian won the Hundred Dynasties War, he came from the Low-level Dynasty. He's seen all sorts of setbacks and difficulties along the way, and he even defeated Senior Brother Zhang Hao. Today, he's challenging Senior Brother. Maybe he really has the confidence."

"So what? Among the younger generation of the Yuan Sect, only the Three Young Kings personally taught by the Sect Leader can suppress Senior Brother's strength. Lin Langtian has probably kicked a hornet's nest today."

"Hehe, then let's wait and see."

Low whispers echoed around the plaza as tens of thousands of registered disciples stared intently at Lin Langtian. Anyone with social anxiety would probably have already crawled into a hole by now.

But for Lin Langtian, all he wanted right now was to defeat Ling Chi as soon as possible and then ascend to the position of Fire Division Spirit General.

At the head of the square, Fen Cang looked at Lin Langtian and Ling Chi, who were already at each other's throats, narrowed his old eyes slightly, and then spoke.

"It has been a long time since Personal Disciple Grand Disciple challenged Spirit General. A Spirit General is equivalent to a crown Crown Prince in the secular world, with a noble and extraordinary status."

However, within my Yuan Sect, the eight great Spirit General have always been those who are capable!

"You two's battle might even alarm the three Sect Leader, so regardless of who wins or loses, you must perform well and not tarnish the prestige of the Fire Division."

Before Lin Langtian and Ling Chi could reply, Fen Cang waved his aged hand and said, "Alright, let the competition begin!"

Lin Langtian nodded, then slowly turned around to face Ling Chi, and said with a faint smile, "Senior Brother Ling, please enlighten me!"

As Lin Langtian finished speaking, the whispers that had been lingering in the square quietly disappeared. Tens of thousands of eyes were fixed on the scene, and the tense atmosphere made it hard to breathe.

"If you want to replace me as the Fire Division Spirit General, you won't get away with this easily," Ling Chi said coldly, staring at Lin Langtian.

"In that case, I have no choice but to defeat Senior Brother Ling. The leader said that the Fire Division Spirit General will be held by the most capable person!"

Lin Langtian pursed his lips, then a smile appeared on his face, and he said firmly.

"You can't get this kind of thing done with just words!"

A ferocious look appeared on Ling Chi's face, and then his eyes suddenly sharpened. He took a step forward, and his vast Yuan Power swept out from his body without reservation.

He had made up his mind to use all his strength to teach Lin Langtian a painful lesson, so that he would clearly understand that it was wishful thinking for him to replace him!
