In the perfect immortal realm.
Within the Wang family's territory.
Upon seeing Emperor Meng Yu's name appear on the review video, Wang Ruliang frowned slightly. He was already exceptionally handsome, so this gesture was quite graceful.
However beautiful it may appear, it cannot conceal the extreme emotions within Wang Ruliang's heart.
Before this, Wang Ruliang had always considered himself a prodigy who was on par with Emperor Mengyu, although he had always been the one who lost in his struggles with Emperor Mengyu.
However, Wang Ruliang always believed that he was only one step away from becoming Emperor Mengyu, and that one step in the gap could be due to various reasons.
In short, it was a series of coincidences that made me just one step away from winning every battle with Emperor Meng Yu!
Wang Ruliang believed that if he had a bit more luck next time, he would naturally win.
However, over the years, he seems never to have considered one question: perhaps the reason he was always just a hair's breadth away from victory was not because his strength was truly equal to Emperor Meng Yu's, but because Emperor Meng Yu was doing it intentionally.
This is something Wang Ruliang obviously cannot imagine now. In short, he feels extremely complicated looking at Emperor Meng Yu, who is on the list.
Having fought against Emperor Meng Yu for so many years, and now that Emperor Meng Yu is on the list while he is not, doesn't that mean he is truly inferior to Emperor Meng Yu?
Wang Ruliang was clearly unwilling to accept this reality.
"What is this? How did that Emperor Meng Yu even get on the list?"
"I just don't understand, what exactly are the criteria for making the list? Why is it that Emperor Meng Yu can make the list, but my master can't?"
"It seems the person watching this review video is unaware that this is my master's second reincarnation, while Emperor Meng Yu is only in his first."
"Ever since the moth appeared in the review video, I've realized that this so-called review video is just a fabrication by the author."
"That's right, how could Emperor Meng Yu possibly be the strongest in our Perfect Immortal Realm? The only one qualified to be the strongest is our Lord!"
Not only was Wang Ruliang shocked, but the entire Wang family erupted in a cacophony of noise, as if struck by a thunderbolt.
Although the Wang family cultivators were dissatisfied, the other major powers in the Perfect Immortal Realm had no objections.
Just because the Wang family is at odds with Emperor Mengyu doesn't mean they are also at odds with Emperor Mengyu.
Once upon a time, the Wang family held absolute power, enjoying all the benefits of the Perfect Immortal Realm. However, the appearance of Emperor Meng Yu ended the Wang family's arrogant monopoly on the world, which made countless cultivators feel relieved.
"Emperor Meng Yu is on the list! But thinking about it carefully, it doesn't seem surprising at all; Emperor Meng Yu certainly deserves it!"
"Will the Battle of Shaozi Pass become Emperor Mengyu's moment of fame? But why don't we know this? Is this a future event that hasn't even happened yet?"
"I wonder what exactly happened at Shaozi Pass that caused such a great battle! I'm really curious!"
"Beyond Shaozi Pass lies the Abyss of Darkness. I wonder if all of this is related to the Abyss of Darkness?"
In the Perfect Wonderland, Emperor Meng Yu had many friends. Compared to the arrogance of the Wang family, Emperor Meng Yu was much more friendly.
However, although both possess formidable strength, Wang Ruliang has the backing of the Wang family, while Emperor Meng Yu is without any support. Even the Perfect Academy was only recently established by a group of powerful individuals, making them fundamentally different from the Wang family.
However, even the glimpse of the future shown in the review video is enough to spark countless speculations among cultivators.
Although the Wang family was the only dominant force in the Perfect Immortal Realm before, and most cultivators lived a miserable life, fortunately there were no large-scale battles.
Looking at the future shown in the review video, there seems to be no battle, and it's probably just a temporary lull.
The mere fact that there would be a battle in the future caused countless cultivators to worry.
"Gentlemen, perhaps we don't need to worry too much." An elderly Great Emperor-level expert spoke slowly. Initially, he had his brows furrowed, but now, as if he had thought of something, he slowly relaxed.
The cultivators beside him were all puzzled and couldn't help but ask, "Old sir, what exactly does this mean?"
"Based on the information in the video, it seems there's been some unusual activity in the Dark Lands of the Outer Regions," the elderly cultivator slowly spoke. "The Dark Lands have been quiet for several years, having been sealed off years ago. Their ability to breach Shaozi Pass undoubtedly indicates the use of some kind of teleportation array."
"There's no need to panic about using a teleportation array. Every teleportation array has its limitations; it can potentially teleport an unlimited number of powerful individuals. We can rest assured."
These words clearly gained the approval of the other Great Emperor level experts, who all nodded in agreement after hearing them.
The Dark Lands had been quiet for far too long, and for a moment, they were all stunned when they heard the name.
In the current Perfect Wonderland, perhaps only old guys like them know what the Dark Land is really like, while the remaining young cultivators are probably still wondering what kind of situation could trigger a great war in the Perfect Wonderland.
"At most one, that's the limit even if we send that many," the old man added.
"Too."
With the old man's words, the other Great Emperors naturally felt relieved. They leaned back and began to watch the main character of the review video, Great Emperor Meng Yu.
"Speaking of which, Old Meng really hid it well! He's practically a half-step immortal; he must be the closest being to the path of immortality in the entire world."
"Yes, that's exactly what happened in the video. He seemed to realize that one road was blocked, so he took another one."
"It's truly astonishing. An ordinary person would probably rack their brains and still not come up with such a method, or even if they did, they wouldn't dare to actually implement it."
"Old Meng is ruthless; he gave up all those years of cultivation just like that."
"Hahaha, we keep calling him Old Meng, but now that I think about it, Emperor Meng Yu isn't actually that old!"
At this point, several powerful figures at the Great Emperor level couldn't help but laugh.
Upon closer examination, the reason they call Emperor Meng Yu "Old Meng" is simply because he is mature beyond his years and has a meticulous mind at such a young age, completely different from his peers.
