In the current Primordial Holy Heaven, Shentu Feng is undoubtedly the number one.
Whether it's skill level or public recognition.
This is not a bad thing.
But for every person who rises to prominence, there is someone else who is destined to fall into obscurity.
This is a normal thing.
But ironically, the one who remained silent was the one on whom everyone placed their highest hopes.
That undefeated myth.
Before Lin Xuan appeared, he was always the number one genius in the Primordial Holy Heaven.
As Shentu Feng gradually rose to prominence, he quietly disappeared from the Primordial Holy Heaven.
Many people say that the reason he is like this is because he suffered two blows from Lin Xuan and the Holy Son of the Primordial Slaying Alliance, and failed to pick up his shattered beliefs and determination, and was completely devastated.
Within the academy, there were fewer and fewer voices about him.
Shentu Feng broke through, but Wan Renshan remained completely silent.
Many revered teachers expressed their deep regret.
Especially when I saw that dusty figure in the crowd, I didn't know what to say.
The Ten Institutes Grand Competition is a major event.
Wan Renshan certainly wouldn't miss out on such an opportunity.
But the way he appeared in public truly astonished everyone, leaving them feeling melancholy.
Gray was a color that had never appeared on him before.
But now, he was only wearing a loose gray robe, his hair was disheveled, and his face was calm to the point of death. His once handsome face was now so thin that it was emaciated, and his cheekbones were protruding due to extreme weight loss. He looked utterly dejected.
His unkempt appearance suggests he has only recently emerged from seclusion.
However, there was no Spiritual Power fluctuation on his body at all.
Only profound silence remained.
It's obviously...
The breakthrough failed.
When Shentu Feng stepped forward to express his resolve, he did not utter a single response, but simply stood there watching indifferently, his eyes devoid of any light or emotion.
The crowd was both shocked and saddened by the fall of this once-proud talent.
Wan Renshan was well aware of the gazes fixed upon him.
But he did not intend to respond.
They didn't pay any attention.
I simply accepted it all calmly.
Whether it's disappointment or anticipation, he has already endured too much. All the rights and wrongs, the ups and downs, are no longer a big deal to him now.
Being the first among the Ten Saints is fine too.
Let him be known as the number one genius of the Primordial Holy Heaven.
He doesn't care.
It doesn't matter.
Shentu Feng wants it, then so be it.
after all...
In this world, what truly matters is strength.
Rather than just a hollow reputation.
No one knew what Wan Renshan was thinking. Only Bai Wuya's gaze paused for a moment when it swept over him, but then quickly looked away.
The Ten Saints are ready, and the desolation of Wan Renshan is just a trivial matter.
The group boarded the flying boat in a grand procession, some full of confidence and others filled with trepidation, heading towards the upcoming Ten Institutes Grand Competition.
In this battle, the Primordial Holy Heaven risked almost everything.
If he fails again, he fears that he will be slandered by the world, Bai Wuya he will not be able to bear being at the bottom all the time.
Even though they defeated the Primordial Slaying Alliance, their victory was ultimately limited to a single area.
The Primordial Holy Heaven is the Holy Heaven.
It is also an academy.
Only when the students among them are truly excellent should we care about them the most.
The rest... are merely icing on the cake.
The sixteen flying boats were all filled with students and holy teachers from the Primordial Holy Heaven.
Such a massive formation attracted many residents of the Primordial Domain to subconsciously look up at the sky.
All that could be seen was the white trail left by the flying boat as it passed through the clouds.
Streaks of white light stretched into the distance.
The aura of a powerful being swept overhead.
Everyone was secretly surprised, quite bewildered and astonished. "What... what happened?"
"Such a grand display, it seems the entire Primordial Holy Heaven has been mobilized!"
But some people, after thinking about the timeline, understand what happened.
He immediately understood and spoke up.
"I remember now..."
"Is this time close to the start of the Ten Institutes Grand Competition?"
Upon hearing this, many people suddenly understood, their expressions showing a clear sense of unease, along with a hint of anticipation.
"I see..."
"It seems to be around this time..."
"I wonder if Primordial Holy Heaven can achieve a good ranking this year."
"Hopefully, we won't be at the bottom of the rankings like we have in the past few years."
"Well!"
The status of the Primordial Holy Heaven is related to the status of all cultivators in the Primordial Domain. The stronger the Primordial Holy Heaven is, the more respect they will receive when they go out into the world.
Many people began to pray silently.
Of course, some people are disheartened and have no expectations whatsoever.
Although the development of the Primordial Holy Heaven has looked good in the past two years, the fact that the Primordial Holy Heaven is developing does not mean that the other Holy Heaven are not developing.
In comparison, the Primordial Holy Heaven is definitely at the bottom in terms of the strength of its students.
How can anyone have any expectations?
Meanwhile, on the lead airship, a woman in white stood at the bow, sword in hand, gazing calmly into the distance.
White Rainbow piercing the sun is a good omen.
A slight smile curved her lips, and she felt a surge of joy.
Unlike others who felt uncertain, Duan Nianwei possessed only boundless confidence.
She was the one who knew her own strength best, and also knew how powerful her fellow disciples from the Sword Pavilion were.
Her current level is vastly different from what it was back then.
After returning from the Vast Sea Secret Realm, she immediately went into seclusion to digest her gains.
Now that she's emerged from seclusion at this crucial juncture, her strength is only one step away from reaching the Thearch Realm.
Keep in mind, she's not even twenty years old yet!
The disciples of the Sword Pavilion are most skilled at fighting opponents of higher levels!
It's safe to say that, excluding her fellow disciples in the Sword Pavilion, among all the students, if she claims to be second, no one would dare to claim to be first!
Duan Nianwei could confidently say that even Shentu Feng, who had already entered the Thearch Realm, could not withstand One Sword from her!
Shentu Feng was the head of the Ten Saints?
It's just that I'm unwilling to fight for it!
How laughable! They really think they're the number one person in the Primordial Holy Heaven...
As for the senior female students...
A sly glint flashed in Duan Nianwei's eyes.
The senior female students are very strong.
His natural talent is also extraordinary.
However, after going through numerous hardships to return to their sect, it will probably take them some time before they can surpass her in cultivation level.
Duan Nianwei is clever, but she's not without her own little schemes.
Of course, her idea was simple.
She knew that her talent might not rank her among the top in the Sword Pavilion, so as the number of members in the Sword Pavilion gradually increased, she would definitely have to make some achievements if she wanted to curry favor with her master.
Her goal was to win a place in this Ten Institutes Grand Competition.
Make Master look good!
I want my master to see that I am the most powerful disciple right now!
Hmph!
Thinking about it, Duan Nianwei couldn't help but smile.
The Ten Institutes Grand Competition...
She couldn't wait any longer!
