On the Flying Immortal Arena.

Su Wantang smiled faintly and said, "Fellow Daoist Sun, since you are a top genius in the Central Continent, then don't disappoint me."

Sun Qing stared at her with a solemn expression, not daring to show the slightest disrespect:

"Fellow Daoist Su, the strength of the Eastern Desolation's prodigies far exceeds my expectations. I wonder where you rank in the Eastern Desolation?"

Su Wantang was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, then chuckled, "I am not considered a top genius in the Eastern Desolation. Many people are more talented than me, but they are not breaking through for the time being in order to hone their foundation."

"Just considering the Spirit Transformation Realm alone, there are currently over a thousand people stronger than me."

Sun Qing could no longer maintain her composure and cried out in shock:

Are you trying to trick me?

How could there possibly be so many people better than you?

Su Wantang blinked, knowing the other party had misunderstood, but didn't explain further, simply saying:

"Within the same realm, there are indeed over a thousand people who can defeat me."

She was able to break through to the Divine Acupoint Realm faster than others entirely because she earned a massive amount of Energy Points by live-streaming her piano playing. With the system's assistance, she was able to break through so quickly.

In terms of natural talent alone, he may not be the most outstanding in the Eastern Desolation, but he is still among the top tier.

She is currently ranked 1056th on the Divine Acupoint Realm Combat Power Ranking, and there are more than a thousand people stronger than her.

Although many of them occupy high positions on the Combat Power Ranking because of their age or high cultivation level, and are not considered young prodigies, there are indeed more than a thousand people stronger than him.

However, I believe that once my cultivation level breaks through again, I will definitely be able to push many people out of the top.

Sun Qing found it hard to believe that there were over a thousand people in the Eastern Desolation stronger than Su Wantang.

It's important to know that in the Central Continent, she, Wei Mo, and Li Xinglin broke through to the Spirit Transformation Realm at a speed far exceeding that of previous geniuses, earning them the title of "the strongest geniuses of ten thousand years."

But upon hearing that there were over a thousand geniuses at the Nascent Spirit Transformation Realm in the Eastern Desolation, even his calm State of Mind could not conceal the turmoil within him.

After a moment, she suppressed her shock and said solemnly:

"Fellow Daoist Su, the strength of the prodigies of the Eastern Desolation far exceeds my expectations."

But as someone representing Central Continent, I have no reason to easily admit defeat! Today, let me experience your superior skills!

After saying that, she took out a High-Grade Spirit Artifact mirror, pointed it at Su Wantang, and a divine light carrying the power of annihilation suddenly shot out.

Su Wantang raised her hand and took out a thirteen-stringed zither. With a light pluck of her fingers, a sound wave shot out and struck the divine light directly.

"Boom!"

Amidst a deafening roar, the sound waves and divine light were simultaneously annihilated.

When Sun Qing saw that the opponent's Law Treasure was actually a zither, her eyes narrowed slightly. She herself was also proficient in playing the zither, so she naturally knew how troublesome a zither attack could be.

She suddenly accelerated, her precious mirror flashing repeatedly, unleashing a barrage of annihilating divine light upon Su Wantang.

Su Wantang also moved, her movements as nimble as a butterfly, her speed astonishing.

While skillfully dodging the divine light, she launched an attack with the sound of her zither, but she did not use the "Great Dao Overture" nor did she incorporate her emotions and desires into the sound waves.

She wanted to use this experience to hone her combat skills, so that in the future someone could withstand the attacks of emotions and desires.

If you lack experience in other combat areas, you'll be in danger.

On the arena, two figures moved nimbly and gracefully, their attacks as fast as lightning, constantly colliding and annihilating each other, with loud bangs shaking the entire arena.

Upon hearing the phrase "over a thousand Spirit Transformation Realm from the Eastern Desolation" in their conversation, Wei Jiaming's eyes widened in astonishment, and he exclaimed in disbelief:

"More than a thousand Nascent Spirit Transformation Realm? That's terrifying!"

Chen Xingci exclaimed in disbelief, "Could this be the strength of the Eastern Desolation's prodigies?"

I finally understand why Zheng Siqi and Lin Jing only dared to call themselves ordinary cultivators, and not dared to call themselves the pride of the Eastern Desolation.

Compared to those monsters, we are really just ordinary cultivators.

Wang Ruoyao was equally shocked, but a look of doubt appeared in her eyes:

"I get the feeling that Su Wantang's words imply that there are over a thousand Spirit Transformation Realm stronger than her in the Eastern Desolation."

It's very likely that Sun Qing misunderstood?

"Or, shall we ask Zheng Siqi what exactly happened?"

"Okay, I'll go ask!"

Wei Jiaming immediately transmitted his Divine Sense to Zheng Siqi: "Fellow Daoist Zheng, do you really have more than a thousand Nascent Spirit Transformation Realm in the Eastern Desolation?"

Zheng Siqi was interacting with the viewers in the live stream when she heard this, and was slightly taken aback. She then replied Divine Sense:

"Fellow Daoist Wei has misunderstood. There are only about ten geniuses in the Eastern Desolation who have broken through to the Spirit Transformation Realm. Where did you get thousands of them?"

Just now Su Wantang said that "there are more than a thousand people in the same realm who are stronger than her," which Sun Qing misunderstood.

However, in a few days, the number of geniuses in the Eastern Desolation who break through to the Spirit Transformation Realm will probably exceed a thousand.

Many people have already honed their foundations and are ready to break through at any time. Even I, after the Flying Immortal Assembly ends, will need to find a place to go into seclusion to prepare for breaking through to the Spirit Transformation Realm.

Wei Jiaming breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing that "there are no more than a thousand Spirit Transformation Realm in the Eastern Desolation, only about ten currently."

Then I heard, "Soon, more than a thousand people will break through to the Spirit Transformation Realm, and even Zheng Siqi is going to try to reach the Spirit Transformation Realm."

His face immediately filled with disbelief, his fists clenched involuntarily, and a storm raged within him:

He had only recently broken through to the Peak of the Nascent Soul Realm, and he didn't know how long it would take to break through to the Spirit Transformation Realm, yet the Eastern Desolation actually had so many geniuses preparing to break through to the Spirit Transformation Realm.

"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Zheng... But you said that at least a thousand prodigies in the Eastern Desolation will break through to the Spirit Transformation Realm. Is that really the case?"

I really can't believe it.

Zheng Siqi smiled and said, "It's not at least a thousand people, it's nearly three thousand geniuses in the Eastern Desolation who are about to break through to the Spirit Transformation Realm."

Even I'm about to break through to the Spirit Transformation Realm, and the others are almost there too. Even if there are some differences in timing, it won't be much longer."

Wei Jiaming's head was buzzing, and he asked incredulously:

"You just said... there are three thousand geniuses in the Eastern Desolation? Or did I mishear you?"

"You heard right, that's about three thousand of the most Eastern Desolation."

"This... Fellow Daoist Zheng, you're not kidding me, are you? How can there be so many geniuses? It's like they're being wholesaled!"

"Uh... Fellow Daoist Wei, there are indeed about three thousand geniuses in the Eastern Desolation."

"Sigh, I can't even squeeze into one of these three thousand people, I'm really too weak."

Zheng Siqi's face, which had been smiling just moments before, was now tinged with bitterness.

Seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, Wei Jiaming couldn't help but swear:

"What the hell is going on?"

How did Tianjiao become a wholesaler?

So what am I? An ant? Or a weakling?

Seeing his shocked expression, Chen Xingci and Wang Ruoyao quickly asked, "Fellow Daoist Wei, what has caused such shock?"

After a moment, Wei Jiaming began to relay Zheng Siqi's words to the two of them verbatim.

Chen Xingci and Wang Ruoyao were also stunned upon hearing this, and exclaimed in shock:

"Are all the geniuses of the Eastern Desolation bought in bulk? How can there be so many? What are we then?"

For a moment, the three looked at each other, their faces full of dejection, their Dao hearts on the verge of collapse.

Qian Duoduo gazed at the two graceful, ethereal figures on the arena, marveling at their beauty.

"Su Wantang and Sun Qing even fight with such ethereal grace, but they're really ruthless when they strike."

Women really can't be judged by appearances; they're ruthless when it comes to action.

Liu Yi stared at the confrontation on the stage and nodded in agreement. "When women get ruthless, men really have nothing on them."

However, Su Wantang clearly wasn't using her full strength; she was just using Sun Qing as a practice target.

If Sun Qing doesn't have any other trump cards, she'll be doomed once Su Wantang unleashes her Seven Emotions and Six Desires attack.

Seeing that the battle had reached a stalemate, Sun Qing didn't want to continue the fight and immediately gave a soft shout:

"Fellow Daoist Su, your strength is extraordinary! But if this is all you've got, you'll be defeated by me today."

After saying that, she turned the magic mirror around to face herself, formed a hand seal, and streaks of spiritual light, as fast as shooting stars, entered the magic mirror one after another.
