Time slipped by, and in the blink of an eye, the victors had been decided. The top twenty-five of Heaven's Chosen emerged.
This round brought joy to some and sorrow to others!
The most dazzling among them were Luo Bai, Wan Junming, Luo Shuihan, Luo Junhang, Qi Qing, Zhang Ze, and the other formidable contenders. They had strolled into the top twenty-five as easily as if they were taking a leisurely walk through a courtyard.
By contrast, Lin Hao, Liu Quer, Meng Wanting, and the others quietly mourned their failure to advance. Fortunately, the upcoming Challenge Tournament still offered them a chance to battle for better rankings.
Next came the crucial Third Round. This time, fortune smiled on Lin Zihan. By some strange stroke of luck, she drew a Blank Number, securing her passage straight into the top thirteen!
Lin Yong, on the other hand, had poor luck. He was unfortunately matched against his powerful sworn enemy, Luo Bai.
When Lin Zihan and Lin Hao caught sight of Luo Bai's razor-sharp, murderous gaze, they hurriedly urged Lin Yong not to act rashly. If he truly could not win, conceding voluntarily would still allow him to preserve his dignity.
Faced with their earnest advice, Lin Yong initially nodded repeatedly and promised to heed their words.
Yet once he actually stepped onto the Tournament Platform, the ambition in his heart erupted like a volcano. In the end, he could not suppress the urge to test himself and decided to throw caution to the wind and trade blows with Luo Bai.
Lin Yong unleashed his unique Tank Saint Body and exclusive body-refining cultivation method with all his strength, hoping to raise his defenses to their utmost and leave nothing to chance.
"There's a road to heaven, yet you refuse to take it.
