"Are those the Three Generals of the Punishment Hall?"
Mu Chen's expression was similarly solemn as he stared at the three lofty figures that were faintly discernible within the clouds. The strength of these three people was considerably strong.
"The final protectors this time are indeed them."
Li Xuantong muttered. Facing these three people who were once in the top three of the Heavenly Rankings, even he felt some pressure.
"Furthermore, the three of them are going together. If that's the case, the final hurdle will be too difficult."
Li Xuantong faintly furrowed his brows. Although he was confident in his own strength, he wasn't arrogant to the point where he dared to say that he could fight against three people. After all, the three of them weren't ordinary people. When he had just entered the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, these three were existences that he could only look up to.
According to the rules of the Hunting War, regardless of how many "Spiritual Lights" they obtained in the Hunting War, if they were unable to pass the final hurdle, everyone's hard work would be wasted. The "Spiritual Lights" that they worked so hard for would also become useless.
Similarly, the Spiritual Light Empowerment would no longer be bestowed upon him.
This was an important matter that concerned the interests of all the students participating in the Hunting War.
Clearly, many students had thought of this step. Immediately, the atmosphere in the plaza became somewhat tense. Many people tightly frowned as they swept their gazes around, searching for a figure that could make them feel at ease.
"Why didn't Shen Cangsheng appear in this year's Hunting War?"
"If he doesn't participate, I'm afraid that it will be very difficult to pass the final hurdle."
"That's right. I'm afraid that Li Xuantong alone won't be able to deal with the Three Generals."
“”
Whispers spread throughout the plaza. Many people were searching for the figure that stood at the top of the Hokuang Reiwon Heavenly Rankings.
Only when he appeared would they be able to guarantee that they would be able to obtain the "Spiritual Light Empowerment".
Mu Chen's expression was calm, but he did not look around. In his opinion, it was better to rely on oneself than to rely on others. After all, relying on others was a bad idea. Shen Cangsheng was indeed very powerful. If he rushed back to participate in the Hunting War, it would be an exciting matter for many people.
However, Mu Chen was not used to placing his hopes on others.
Li Xuantong also had an indifferent look on his face, completely unperturbed as he allowed the whispers to spread.
On the Green Bird, Dean Tai Cang smiled as he looked at the bustling square, "Does the family have any objections to this Hunting War?
If he didn't …
Then open the 'Spiritual Light Realm'. "
The Spiritual Light World was the Hunting Grounds. It was a peculiar little space created by the Hokuang Reiwon. Every year, the Hunting War would begin in the Spiritual Light World.
Countless students looked at each other and could only nod helplessly. From the looks of it, Shen Cangsheng would not be coming.
If that was the case, they would have no chance of winning at the final hurdle.
The Three Generals were extremely famous, not only in the Hokuang Reiwon.
Even in the Northern Heavens Continent, their fame was not small. Although it did not mean that they would be able to pass the final hurdle as long as Shen Cangsheng participated in the Hunting War, at least if Shen Cangsheng and Li Xuantong worked together, their chances of winning would increase by a lot.
Seeing this, Dean Tai Cang smiled faintly.
He waved his sleeves.
The space in front of him started to distort. As the light wriggled, a huge spatial door slowly took shape. A peculiar and boundless Spiritual Energy fluctuation rippled out from it.
"It's about time. This year's Hunting War will begin now!" Dean Tai Cang saw the spatial door open, and his clear laughter resounded in everyone's ears.
Countless students nodded their heads as a fiery blaze flashed across their eyes. No matter what, admitting defeat before reaching the final step wasn't the style of the students of the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy. Even if there wasn't a powerful figure like Shen Cangsheng in this year's Hunting War, they would still attempt to break through the final hurdle!
However, just as countless students were preparing to soar into the air and enter the "Spiritual Light World", the sound of rushing wind suddenly rang out from far behind them.
An astonishing Spiritual Energy fluctuation soared into the sky.
"Haha, how can this Hunting War leave me out?"
When the astonishing Spiritual Energy fluctuation appeared, a thunderous laughter rang out and resounded in the sky above the plaza.
"It's Senior Shen Cangsheng?!"
"He's finally back!"
The entire plaza seemed to have exploded in an instant. Countless students were excited and could not help but cheer. At this final moment, the tyrant of the Heavenly Rankings had finally arrived!
Amidst the cheers that filled the sky, a streak of light flew over from the distance and appeared in the sky. As the light dissipated, a black-clothed youth stood in the air. His aura was disdainful, like an eagle soaring in the sky.
Countless gazes were filled with reverence as they looked at the disdainful figure. In the hearts of this year's Hokuang Reiwon students, Shen Cangsheng was undoubtedly the true tyrant.
Until now, no one had been able to surpass his position on the Heavenly Rankings.
"You've finally appeared?"
Li Xuantong stared at the black-clothed figure in the sky and smiled faintly. Thick fighting intent surged out from his eyes.
If this Hunting War did not have Shen Cangsheng, it would be too boring.
"He's Senior Shen Cangsheng?"
Zhou Ling, Ye Qingling and the rest looked at the figure with curiosity and reverence. After arriving at Hokuang Reiwon, they had clearly heard too much about the fame of this tyrant of the Heavenly Rankings.
Mu Chen faintly nodded his head. He stared at the figure, before looking at the nearly boiling atmosphere. In the current Hokuang Reiwon, there was indeed only Shen Cangsheng who possessed such absolute charisma, and was akin to a flag bearer.
Even Li Xuantong, who was also a heaven's favored child, was inferior to him in this aspect.
Standing in the air, Shen Cangsheng looked towards Dean Tai Cang on the back of the green bird and said with a smile, "Dean, I'm not too late?"
Dean Tai Cang also smiled as he looked at him. Naturally, he was quite familiar with this current most outstanding student of Hokuang Reiwon. "Didn't you accept the bounty mission to kill" Mo Longzi "?
Could it be that you've completed the mission? "
Hearing those words, the hearts of quite a few students trembled. Mo Longzi?
The super vicious person ranked second on the Mission Hall's bounty board?
Hearing those words, Shen Cangsheng gave a helpless smile and said, "I've fought with him a few times. However, he managed to escape. After I participate in this Hunting War, I'll receive another Spiritual Light Empowerment. Then, I should be able to kill him."
Although his words were calm, they caused quite a few outstanding students of Hokuang Reiwon to faintly change their expressions. Unknowingly, Shen Cangsheng had already reached such a level?
How were they going to catch up to him?
The tyrant of the Heavenly Rankings truly lived up to his name.
Li Xuantong's eyes faintly narrowed. However, the fighting intent within them didn't weaken in the slightest. On the contrary, it grew even denser.
Seemingly sensing Li Xuantong's gaze, Shen Cangsheng turned his head around and said with a smile, "Long time no see, Li Xuantong. Why are you staring at me like that?"
"I just want to see how much you've improved in this period of time. Don't let me easily surpass you." replied Li Xuantong with an indifferent smile.
"Haha, I also want to see if your Heavenly Profound Divine Arts have improved."
Shen Cangsheng nodded his head with a smile. On the Heavenly Rankings, the only person that could cause him to pay attention to was Li Xuantong. As for people like He Yao, he didn't place them in his eyes.
With a smile, Shen Cangsheng's indifferent gaze swept across He Yao, Xu Huang and the other influential figures in the top ten of the Heavenly Rankings. When his gaze landed on Mu Chen, he instantly gawked slightly, before shooting a deep and meaningful look at the latter.
Shen Cangsheng clearly had quite a deep impression of Mu Chen. Back then, he had relied on his Heavenly Fusion Stage strength to kill Bai Xuan. Furthermore, he was still able to remain calm and composed in front of Mo Longzi. Such a mentality was clearly not something that an ordinary youth could possess.
Seeing Shen Cangsheng's gaze, Mu Chen gave a faint smile. However, he didn't say anything.
"Since the person you've been waiting for has arrived, let's begin."
With a grin on his face, Dean Tai Cang looked towards those students, who had clearly relaxed. Clearly, Shen Cangsheng's arrival had given many students more confidence.
As his voice rang out, ten thousand rays of brilliance instantly erupted from the spatial door.
"Haha, everyone, let's move out. Li Xuantong, let's meet at the Spiritual Light Stage!"
With a chuckle, Shen Cangsheng took a step forward. Transforming into a streak of light, he rushed straight into the gigantic spatial door. Only his laughter continued to rumble and resound in the air above the square.
Bang!
Shen Cangsheng's action had undoubtedly caused the entire square to erupt in an instant. Countless figures rose from the ground. After which, they swept across the horizon like locusts, blotting out the sky as they charged into the huge spatial door.
Li Xuantong also immediately moved out, leading a group of people as they rushed towards the gigantic spatial door radiating with ten thousand rays of brilliance.
"Let's move out as well." Mu Chen looked towards Luo Li, to which the latter gave a gentle nod.
"Good luck, Brother Mu!" Behind them, the numerous members of the Goddess Luo Association waved their fists as they shouted in excitement.
Mu Chen waved his hand towards them, before pulling Luo Li's jade-like hand. Their figures also abruptly shot out, before merging into the earth-shattering stream of people as they rushed into the "Spiritual Light World".
On the back of the green bird, Dean Tai Cang grinned as he looked at the spectacular scene before him. Turning his gaze towards the light mirror in the air, the end point of the "Spiritual Light World" was being illuminated there, which was the so-called "Spiritual Light Platform". As for the three Generals, they were guarding this place.
"Haha, this Hunting War is going to be interesting. I wonder, will the former top three on the Heavenly Ranking be more powerful, or the current third on the Heavenly Ranking be more powerful?"
When the several elders behind heard this, they let out faint chuckles. Although the auras of these students were like rainbows, coupled with geniuses like Shen Cangsheng and Li Xuantong, they were still a little lacking if they wanted to challenge the position of the three generals.
In this Hunting War, it was very likely that everyone would return empty-handed if they were not careful.
