The genius battle proceeded in an orderly manner. Occasionally, some amazing talents would appear. Some of them even attracted the attention of the ten Palace Lords. They personally came out to take them in as disciples.
Even if they were slightly better, the other Almighties would fight to take them in as disciples.
In short, the entire process of the genius battle was very successful.
However, there was still a small interlude.
When Lin Zhan appeared, he defeated a genius with lightning speed. The latter wasn't convinced and burned his blood essence to severely injure Lin Zhan. However, Lin Zhan forcefully cut off one of his arms.
Next, the warrior who mocked Lin Zhan didn't let go of such a good opportunity. He stood on the side of justice and accused Lin Zhan of maliciously injuring others. He also said that he would teach Lin Zhan a lesson.
"He has already lost. You even cut off his arm. You are simply too vicious," the warrior who mocked Lin Zhan said coldly.
Instantly.
Everyone was criticizing Lin Zhan. After all, the warrior who mocked Lin Zhan was extremely powerful. He had been famous for a long time and had many followers.
"I didn't break the rules," Lin Zhan said coldly.
"Humph, do you think you are very powerful?
Do you know that there is always someone better than you? "
The warrior who mocked Lin Zhan scolded angrily. "Today, let me teach you a lesson."
As soon as he finished speaking, the warrior who mocked Lin Zhan attacked directly. The moment he attacked, he unleashed the terrifying power of Yin and Yang. It condensed into a Yin-Yang fish and attacked Lin Zhan rapidly.
However …
Lin Zhan kept dodging with ease and counterattacked from time to time.
"Damn it."
Seeing this, the warrior who mocked Lin Zhan became even more furious. He lost his sense of propriety and only focused on attacking. His moves were full of loopholes.
Fang Chen, who was on the spectator stand, nodded in satisfaction. Strictly speaking, Lin Zhan's strength was similar to his opponent's. However, he could skillfully make use of his opponent's carelessness and underestimate. He kept provoking his opponent.
This way …
The opponent was completely enraged and full of loopholes. Unknowingly, Lin Zhan was already in an invincible position.
Moreover …
Lin Zhan still had a trump card. That was his inheritance.
"Lin Zhan is not bad."
The hot-tempered Fire Dome Palace Lord couldn't help but praise Lin Zhan.
The Void Primogenitor glanced at Fang Chen. "My Lord, how is it?"
"Not bad." Fang Chen's comment was like a thunderclap in the ears of the ten Palace Masters.
One had to know that up until now, there were many people who were stronger than Lin Zhan. However, the Lord Leader had never commented on any of them. Just these two words were enough to show how much the Lord Leader valued Lin Zhan.
Boom!
After an intense battle, Lin Zhan cleverly defeated the martial artist who mocked him.
"You lost." Lin Zhan grinned.
"You …" The cultivator who mocked Lin Zhan crawled up from the ground and stared at Lin Zhan with bloodshot eyes. He wanted to tear Lin Zhan into pieces.
"Do you only know how to use such despicable means?"
"In a competition, we only care about the outcome. We don't care about the process," Lin Zhan said.
"If this was the battlefield, you would already be a dead man. You have no right to speak to me here."
Boom!
The martialists who mocked Lin Zhan still wanted to attack but were stopped by Void Ancestor.
"Enough."
Void Ancestor stood up and scanned the crowd. "On the battlefield, the enemy won't talk nonsense with you. As long as they find a chance, they will give you a fatal blow."
Hearing this, the cultivator who mocked Lin Zhan lowered his head.
"Lin Zhan won this battle," Void Ancestor announced.
At this moment.
Waves of energy came from the void. Immediately after, everyone realized that five strange-looking fellows had appeared out of thin air.
Everyone was shocked, and they exclaimed.
The Five Tyrants of Jade Mountain.
They were legendary strong martial artists from the Chaos World. They had followed the Lord Leader and fought everywhere. Now, they had become famous strong martial artists.
The last time they appeared was more than a hundred years ago. They had taken in a disciple called Luo Xiao.
"That is … the Five Tyrants of Jade Mountain."
"They actually came."
"Look, Luo Xiao is here too."
Many people were curious. Under the guidance of the Five Tyrants of Jade Mountain, how strong had Luo Xiao become?
"Boss, we are here."
The Five Tyrants of Jade Mountain were still casual as they greeted Fang Chen.
Tian Xin and Kang Jiu had also come together to greet their Master.
"Congratulations, Master. You have another disciple under your command."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was stunned.
"Huh?
What do you mean? "
"Tian Xin and Kang Jiu are the Lord Leader's disciples. What did they say just now?"
"Could it be that the Lord Leader thinks highly of one of us?"
In an instant, everyone was guessing. Their expressions were different. Only Lin Zhan was relatively calm.
"Master, who is Fourth Junior Brother?" Kang Jiu was a little impatient.
"Lin Zhan greets the two Senior Brothers and the five Uncle-Masters."
Amidst the noise, Lin Zhan took a step forward and knelt on one knee.
"Lin Zhan, are you crazy?"
Someone shouted and asked Lin Zhan to come back quickly. Today was such a grand occasion. If he ruined it and made the Lord Leader angry, the consequences would be unimaginable.
However …
No one expected Fang Chen to flick his finger. Instantly, a gentle force helped Lin Zhan up. Moreover, a mark was injected into Lin Zhan's body.
"From today onwards, Lin Zhan will be my fourth disciple."
Fang Chen's announcement stunned everyone.
Tian Xin and Kang Jiu smiled and came to Lin Zhan's side. They congratulated their Junior Brother.
"Hahaha, this is great. Congratulations, Junior Brother."
At the same time, the two of them took out two items from their pockets and passed them to Lin Zhan. "This is our greeting gift."
When Lin Zhan was hesitating, the Little Mouse said, "Kid, just accept it. This is nothing."
As he spoke, the old faker swayed and plucked a tree branch. He said, "You are Boss's disciple, which means you are our Martial Nephew. We didn't bring any greeting gift. Just accept this tree branch."
Everyone was in an uproar.
This was the legendary Divine Tree. Just a tree branch was enough to increase one's cultivation by 100 years. It was definitely something that the cultivation world dreamed of.
"This … this guy's luck is too good, right?"
From the initial shock and jealousy to the current envy.
Everyone was simply stunned.
The Five Tyrants of Jade Mountain casually gave out a tree branch from the Divine Tree. Tian Xin and Kang Jiu even gave out rare treasures. This was too … enviable.
Under everyone's envious gazes, Lin Zhan accepted the gifts one by one.
