In this battle, Li Hao displayed the Ten Thousand Shadows Movement Method Immortal Arts, combined with the Time Origin of the Eternal Dao Domain, allowing countless people to witness Li Hao's abilities.

In particular, the Primordial Spirit that defeated Gui Lingyue was so powerful that it could suppress other Ghost Clan of the same Heavenly Prodigy, which was terrifying. This meant that when fighting Li Hao, one could only fight with physical bodies and Immortal Arts, and would have almost no chance of winning in terms of Primordial Spirit!

"Miss actually lost!"

"What a powerful Primordial Spirit! That kid broke through the Primordial Spirit Extreme Realm and even cultivated his Primal Spirit Golden Bone to such a high level. I'm afraid that when he reaches the Immortal Lord Realm, he will be able to condense Primal Spirit True Blood."

"His Bloodline power hasn't even been activated yet. When did the Chaos Clan produce such Prodigy?"

At the Ghost Clan's location, the five elders all showed expressions of surprise. They were all at the Immortal King Realm, protecting the two Ghost Clan Heavenly Prodigy who came here to participate in the battle, but at this moment they were also shocked by Li Hao's Primordial Spirit.

Such strength... is even enough to rival the Gui Lingshuang beside him!

Beside her, Gui Lingshuang's calm and aloof eyes suddenly narrowed as her younger sister was being kneaded into a ball, flashing with sharp killing intent and cold light.

She stared at the boy on the stage. His Primordial Spirit had already retreated back into his body. He had only revealed half of his Primordial Spirit's power earlier, yet he had easily suppressed her sister. The amplification brought to the Primordial Spirit by the Ghost Clan's Secret Art was no match for it.

Because only half of it was revealed, she couldn't see exactly how strong the other party's Primordial Spirit was.

At this moment, on the Emperor Platform, the Immortal Guard Commander announced the outcome of the battle.

Upon hearing the news of Li Hao's victory, the entire audience snapped out of their daze and erupted in an uproar.

No one expected that the battle against the famous Ghost Clan would end so quickly, and even turn into a crushing defeat in the end!

In this battle, Li Hao did not use his previous Path of the Fist, but instead relied solely on his Movement Method and the Time Origin to reveal an even more terrifying method than before. This move is currently almost unsolvable!

"Am I seeing things? The Ghost Clan's Primordial Spirit has actually been suppressed! This is terrifying!"

"What race does Haotian actually belong to? I'd believe it even if you said he was from the Emperor Clan!"

"This is outrageous! The Ghost Clan crossed a vast domain to come here, probably wanting to make a name for themselves in my Southern Region, but they were actually suppressed."

"The Battle Heaven Clan and the Ghost Clan have both been defeated. Haotian is bound to be in the Top Ten, or even the Top Five!"

"That superimposed time of Ten Thousand Shadows, that ten thousand times the Time Stop, who can break it?"

Countless people are discussing it, all expressing shock.

Many Immortal Lord Realm, with their sharper eyes, also felt that, in the True Immortal Realm, Li Hao was practically invincible with just this one move!

If he were to further unleash his Primordial Spirit, his power would be even greater, and only a handful of people could defeat him.

"What an amazing talent."

In the distance, Mingyue, dressed in Green-Robed, stood among the disciples of the Heavenly Palace. Her elegant and refined figure attracted much attention. Compared to the shock and solemn expressions of the others, her face showed surprise, followed by a hint of keen interest. If Soul Lifespan was taken into account, she found that even they were not as good as that guy.

In a mere century, they did not reach such a level.

Unfortunately, this time the Soul Lifespan limit is Three Thousand Years, and only combat power matters.

"It's really good."

Beside him, Sword Heart nodded, acknowledging the boy's Prodigy Heavenly Talent.

"That Ghost Clan relies too much on the Primordial Spirit; their methods other than the Primordial Spirit are rather ordinary," Mingyue commented.

Sword Heart remained noncommittal. Only Ghost Reflection Moon's Movement Method was somewhat impressive, but there were still many ways to deal with it.

"Even the Ghost Clan can't stop him?"

Among the crowd, a girl in a green dress had a somewhat pale face.

She had previously deceived the other person at Dao Questioning Mountain, cheating them out of their spot. Although the other person ultimately reached the summit and it didn't affect her, she didn't believe the other person wouldn't hold a grudge.

"It's alright. Making it into the Top Fifty is already quite an achievement. You won't have a chance to run into this guy."

Beside him, a young man from the same clan spoke in a low voice.

He was Immortal Lord Realm, but even he could sense the terrifying power of the young man. If the other party were at the same level as him, he would definitely be a formidable enemy.

Fortunately, within his Three Thousand Years of Soul Lifespan, if the Supreme had not sought fairness and divided the Immortal Lord and True Immortal into two groups, he would have been able to suppress the other party based on his cultivation level.

Although Heavenly Prodigy can defeat enemies in adversity, they are only able to overcome the limitations of ordinary people. If they are fighting against other Heavenly Prodigy, then there is almost no possibility of them being in adversity.

Hearing her Senior Brother's comforting words, the Green-Dressed Girl breathed a slight sigh of relief. Then, her gaze swept over her opponent, a hint of ease in her eyes, and she said:

"Although that Calamity Clan is strong, they only made it into the Top Hundred by luck. Thanks to such an easy target, I have the opportunity to continue advancing into the Top Twenty-Five!"

Her opponent was none other than Great Dream Nine Abyss Yue Xi.

At this moment, on the Emperor Platform, Gui Lingyue came back to her senses. Her eyes were filled with complex emotions. She no longer had the arrogance she had when she stepped onto the platform. She had not expected to be defeated in this battle. What made her most embarrassed was that she had failed to force out Li Hao's Bloodline power!

"Haotian, is that your real name?"

She bit her lip slightly, staring intently at the other person.

Li Hao was somewhat puzzled. Coming to the Southern Region to make a name for oneself—wasn't that making a name for oneself one's true name?

"Is your name fake?"

Li Hao asked in return, curious.

Seeing that the other party had misunderstood, Gui Lingyue shook her head and said, "Of course not."

After saying that, she gave Li Hao a deep look, said nothing more, turned around and leaped off the stage, silently memorizing his name.

When she returned to the Ghost Clan below the stage and saw the cold look in her sister's eyes, she knew that although her sister seemed cold on the surface, their Sisters bond was actually very deep.

She lowered her head and said bitterly, "Sister, that guy's Primordial Spirit is probably comparable to yours."

Gui Lingshuang remained silent for a long while before saying, "Once he advances to the Top Ten, I'll have him challenge me!"

Gui Lingyue was taken aback, then immediately understood her sister's intention to stand up for her. She shook her head. Although she had lost this battle, her opponent had shown mercy. If it were any of the other Top Ten clans, this would have been a rare opportunity to weaken the Ghost Clan, and they would not have missed it.

Judging from this gesture, she appreciated the boy's kindness.

"It would be unfair for my sister to win against him. It's better that she lost this battle; it taught me that there are always people more powerful than you."

She took a deep breath, suppressing the bitterness in her heart, and spoke slowly.

Gui Lingshuang hadn't expected that instead of being devastated and having her Dao Heart shattered, she could gain such insights. A rare hint of Wenrou appeared in her cold eyes, but it quickly vanished. She nodded and said:

"Good."

"Aside from the Emperor Clan and those two Heavenly Palace Supreme, he should be the strongest."

Gui Lingyue's gaze swept across the other places, and the expressions of those great clan Heavenly Prodigy were all somewhat solemn.

However, after personally exchanging blows with Li Hao, Gui Lingyue could sense that the young man was still holding back his strength. If he were to unleash his full power, he would be even more terrifying than he is now!

At this moment, Li Hao also returned to the Great Dream Nine Abyss.

Upon his return to the sect, all the disciples were overjoyed and offered their congratulations.

Li Tiemu breathed a sigh of relief and exclaimed excitedly, "Excellent! You defeated two of the Top Ten clans and even suppressed the Ghost Clan with your primordial Primordial Spirit! I really don't know how you cultivated, kid. Who was your master before?"

He wasn't asking questions, but rather expressing his deep admiration, unable to imagine what kind of person could have taught such Prodigy as Li Hao.

The Dream Master was equally surprised by Li Hao's methods in this battle. He smiled and said to Li Hao, "With the skills you just displayed, breaking into the Top Ten would be a piece of cake."

Li Hao nodded. If that were the case, it would be best, saving them from having to put in any more effort.

"That guy is really something."

The disciples of the Yan Chu Immortal Dynasty, along with other Tianzong disciples and numerous Imperial Clan, all looked towards Great Dream Nine Abyss, their gazes fixed on the young man.

The opposing team is representing Yan-Chu in this battle, also to bring honor to Yan-Chu.

Boya Xuejian was somewhat moved. He specialized in Water Dao, unlike Li Hao who possessed a wide range of techniques, but his approach was singular yet extremely refined.

Beside him, Chu Tianhuang nodded slightly and sighed softly, "Such Prodigy is probably a once-in-a-hundred-thousand-years talent."

Behind her, Chu Yueli heard her brother's evaluation of Li Hao, and her heart trembled slightly. She hadn't expected her brother to give Li Hao such a high evaluation.

Among these Heavenly Prodigy, a few were rated as once-in-ten-thousand-years, which was already the highest praise. And this time, there were seven or eight such Heavenly Prodigy in the True Immortal Realm.

"Overpowering the Ghost Clan, Father must have foreseen this long ago, no wonder..."

Chu Yueli's eyes flickered as she gazed at the boy surrounded by a crowd in the distance. Suddenly, her cheeks flushed slightly, as if she were thinking of something.

As Li Hao's battle with the Ghost Clan ended, the next group of fighters took to the stage at the command of the Immortal Guard Commander.

However, following Li Hao's battle with the Ghost Clan, this battle, while intense, lacked depth, resulting in a somewhat subdued reaction from the audience.

Li Hao also took a look at Yue Xi and Gu Yan's opponents and was somewhat surprised to find that Yue Xi's opponent was the Green-Dressed Girl from the Dao Questioning Mountain earlier. He wondered if this was a case of enemies meeting on a narrow road, and it was a pity that he hadn't run into her.

Before long, it was Yue Xi's turn to perform.

Gu Yan's battle is scheduled for much later in the game, so it's still a long way off.

Yue Xi leaped onto the stage and saw her opponent fall; a cold glint flashed in her eyes.

Before going on stage, she deliberately didn't say much to Li Hao, but she had already made up her mind when she saw her opponent.

"It seems you still remember me."

The Green-Dressed Girl saw Yue Xi's unfriendly gaze and immediately knew that the other party still remembered what had happened before.

Yue Xi's voice was icy as she said, "You deceived my junior brother before, and you even had the nerve to do it. No wonder your Dao Heart Realm isn't high. I'll avenge my junior brother!"

"Ah, what deep kinship!"

The Green-Dressed Girl raised an eyebrow, but her expression was somewhat cold, as if she had been touched on a sore spot.

Her Dao Heart Realm is indeed a weakness, but fortunately, at this time the Emperor Platform only considers combat strength.

"Speaking of which, I should thank him for protecting someone like you and getting you into the Top Hundred, making you my stepping stone."

"That's what the Green-Dressed Girl said sarcastically."

Yue Xi's eyes were icy cold. She didn't waste any more words. Behind her, her Dharma Form was revealed: a black blindfolded female statue that Calamity Witch Clan.

An Aura of turmoil emanated from the palace, as if something bad was about to happen on the Emperor Platform.

The Green-Dressed Girl felt uncomfortable at the sight of this power, but she quickly revealed her own strength. Her Immortal Power erupted, and the Eight Flowers Immortal Seal appeared on her forehead, dazzling and brilliant.

Nine Flowers Immortal Seal are rare, and reaching eight flowers is already exceptional. Moreover, she is already True Immortal Realm, and there is still a chance to further improve and add another flower.

"If I were to encounter him, I would accept defeat, but you are probably still lacking. You are a jinx to the Calamity Clan, ha!"

The Green-Dressed Girl had a disdainful look in her eyes, radiating an aura of the Extreme Realm. Dense Golden Meridian appeared on her Primordial Spirit, revealing an extraordinary aura.

Upon hearing the other party's words, Yue Xi felt a surge of killing intent and said coldly, "You are not worthy to fight my junior brother. You would only dirty his hands!"

As she spoke, she transformed into a streak of black light and shot out at incredible speed.

The Green-Dressed Girl also invoked her Bloodline power and fought alongside Yue Xi.

Her race is also True World Hundred Clans, but she ranks in the seventies. However, compared to the Calamity Clan, which is already outside the Hundred Clans, she is much higher.

As the two fought, the Immortal Arts on the Emperor Platform roared continuously, extremely intense.

The chaotic power unleashed by Yue Xi continuously eroded the Green-Dressed Girl's Immortal Arts. In this battle, her Secret Art gradually became more proficient. Within the Calamity Ancestral Witch's Dharma Form, she seemed to have gained a special understanding of many chaotic Secret Art, giving her the feeling of learning while fighting, with someone constantly bestowing insights upon her by her side.

Soon, Yue Xi grew stronger with each battle, suppressing the Green-Dressed Girl.

"You!"

The Green-Dressed Girl was shocked and furious; her opponent's fighting power was even more terrifying than in the previous battle.

Yue Xi didn't say much, continuing her attack. The chaotic power tore the Green-Dressed Girl's flesh apart, leaving her body in ruins as if rotting from a plague.

Such a terrifying appearance reminded many of the horrific nature of the Calamity Clan.

Yue Xi knew this was something that couldn't be hidden. If people were afraid because of their appearance, then it wasn't their problem, but the problem of the world.

Imperial power and spiritual practice are both stained with blood, but people only revere them, not denigrate them.

That's exactly what she wants to do. Not to hide her sharpness and fangs, but to let the world know how terrifying the power of their Calamity Clan is. But so what? When they become strong enough to inspire awe, all the slander will disappear!

Soon, under Yue Xi's relentless attacks, the Green-Dressed Girl was defeated.

However, this time Yue Xi showed no mercy, rotting the opponent's physical body and then eroding his Primordial Spirit as well.

The Green-Dressed Girl sensed the other party's murderous intent, screamed, and begged for mercy, admitting defeat.

The Immortal Guard Commander intervened in time, thus stopping Yue Xi's murderous intent.

With the announcement from the Immortal Guard Commander, the Green-Dressed Girl felt as if she had been granted a pardon. She glared resentfully at Yue Xi, gritted her teeth, and left the Emperor Platform.

Yue Xi didn't take the other person's gaze to heart. The Calamity Clan had been slandered by the world for many years, and had countless enemies. One more wouldn't make a difference.

When she returned to the sect, Li Hao looked at this Senior Sister who he regarded as a little girl. Although her Soul Lifespan was ten times that of him, perhaps because she had been focused on cultivation for many years, she appeared somewhat naive and ignorant of the ways of the world in his eyes.

However, in this battle, the opponent clearly treated him as Junior Little Brother and was protecting him.

"Thank you for your hard work, Senior Sister."

Li Hao said with a smile.

Yue Xi was slightly taken aback. Seeing Li Hao's warm and sunny smile, she felt a strange mix of emotions. She said softly, "It's nothing, I just can't stand that kind of person."

Li Hao smiled but didn't say anything more.

As the battles progressed, Li Hao saw the highly anticipated Sword Heart and Mingyue take turns on stage. However, compared to the other battles, their fights were extremely simple, ending in a single move.

But that condensed form of something sent chills down the spines of many.

Like them, Di Linchen was defeated in one move, just as easily.

Meanwhile, Shen Wuji of the God Race was fighting against the Tai Kun Clan, the same one who had previously shared the stage with Li Hao in the Top Hundred Emperor Platform. The other party had even proposed to meet Li Hao in the Top Ten showdown, but after a fierce battle, he was defeated by Shen Wuji and almost lost his life.

Gu Yan was in the second-to-last group. His opponent was Chaos Lifeform from the reincarnated Imperial Clan, like Boya Xuejian, but not from the Chaos Snow Spirit Clan.

In the fierce battle, although Gu Yan had grasped the Sword Immortal True Intent, he had only recently comprehended it and had not yet integrated his own Sword Dao into this Sword Intent. Despite a significant increase in strength compared to before, he was still defeated.

Gu Yan never expected that he would be the first to be eliminated among the three.

But he didn't feel bad; Yue Xi's performance had already earned his approval.

Soon, the Top Twenty-Five came to an end.

In the Great Dream Nine Abyss, Li Hao and Yue Xi both advanced, attracting much attention.

Among the many Tianzong and Imperial Clan in Yan-Chu, only three others besides these two advanced, making a total of five!

Of the three, two were Imperial Clan, and one was a disciple of the Star Palace.

The disciples of the other four major Tianzong, including Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Pavilion and Tidal Sect, were all wiped out.

This made the expressions of the various sects rather unpleasant. Although they had only hoped that their disciples could compete for a place in the Top Hundred, which would have been a good thing, seeing the performance of Great Dream Nine Abyss made them feel uncomfortable in comparison.
