Seeing the shocked look of the Supreme Elder of the Tianqin family, Ming Dong smiled happily and said: "The Supreme Elder really has good eyesight and can see through my strength at a glance, but there is no need for you to be so rude. Bubble-()"
Before participating in the mercenary competition, the Supreme Elder with the strength of the Sky Saint Master could still put a huge psychological pressure on Ming Dong, but now, Ming Dong is much more relaxed when facing the Supreme Elder of the Tianqin family. He felt the slightest bit of pressure, because he was now only one step away from the Sky Saint Master. If he had not obeyed Uncle Tian's request, Ming Dong would have been able to break through to the realm of the Sky Saint Master at any time.
The supreme elder of the Tianqin family stared at Ming Dong, who was dressed in black, dumbfounded. His originally calm and watery form suddenly became turbulent, and his old eyes were already full of disbelief and disbelief.
In just one year, Ming Dong's strength has already leapt from the Great Saint Master to the pinnacle of the Earth Saint Master. This has crossed several realms. This is something that is simply impossible to happen, and the most important point is It is Ming Dong's age. Judging from Ming Dong's appearance, he is about the same age as Qin Xiao. They are both in their twenties and seventies. Even if there is a difference, they will definitely not be more than thirty years old. Reaching the peak of the sixth-level Earth Saint Master, he is only one step away from the Sky Saint Master. This can no longer be called a genius, but a unique talent that is rare to see in a thousand years. His talent is so extraordinary that it can astonish everyone in the world.
"How is this possible? A year ago, you clearly only had the strength of a Great Saint Master. How come you have reached the sixth rank of Earth Saint Master a year later? Could it be...did you hide your strength before?" The elder Taishang could not keep calm in his heart. His tone was trembling, and his face was full of disbelief.
Seeing the shocked and helpless look on the Supreme Elder's face, Ming Dong felt happy. In the past, he was just a small figure among the low-level mercenaries. In his eyes, a strong man like Sky Saint Master was aloof and could never be defeated. The terrifying existence of rock climbing, but he did not expect that since following Jian Chen to the Mercenary City, his destiny has undergone a huge change. In just one year, he has reached a height that he could not even imagine before. And he was able to scare a top powerhouse like Sky Saint Master into such a state, not to mention how happy he was.
"Haha, Supreme Elder, there's no need to make such a fuss. It's just that I've had some adventures this year, which is why my strength has improved so quickly." Ming Dong said with a smile.
The Tianqin family elder gradually calmed down. Despite this, his eyes when looking at Ming Dong were still full of shock. Even with his mentality, it seemed a little difficult to accept this fact.
At less than thirty years old, he has reached the level of a sixth-level Earth Saint Master. If this news spreads, the entire Tianyuan Continent may be shaken.
This is really shocking. With such a superb talent, I am afraid that I can definitely successfully reach the realm of Sky Saint Master within ten years, maybe within five years. And in today's era of the Holy King and Hermit, Sky Saint Master He is already the top powerhouse in Tianyuan Continent.
"Oh, I'm getting old, I'm getting old. I thought back then, I only reached the sixth rank of Earth Saint Master when I was over seventy years old. I didn't expect that you would reach such a height at the age of thirty. If you can successfully If you continue to grow, you will one day be able to aspire to the supreme realm of Holy King." The Supreme Elder sighed with a look on his face.
Being so praised by a Sky Saint Master, Ming Dong also had a look of pride on his face. He was like a fish leaping over the dragon gate and becoming a dragon.
The Supreme Elder looked at Qinxiao and said: "Xiao'er, you are the most outstanding person in the Tianqin family in the past hundred years. I am also very pleased that you can successfully complete the task assigned to you by your father."
Facing the Supreme Elder, Qin Xiao was not as natural as Ming Dong. He said solemnly: "Tai Supreme Elder, after I return, I plan to attack the realm of the Earth Saint Master. I am sure I can succeed."
The Supreme Elder smiled happily and said: "This matter is not urgent. You are still young. You should stabilize yourself first. When you are 100% successful, it will not be too late to attack the Earth Saint Master. After all, the Earth Saint Master is It is the first life-and-death hurdle in life, and you cannot make any mistakes, otherwise, your life will be over."
"By the way, why didn't you see Tianzhou? Why didn't the child Tianzhou come out?" The Supreme Elder suddenly asked.
Hearing this, both Jian Chen and Qin Xiao were stunned, and each of them was silent. Although Jian Chen and Tian Zhou had some unhappiness, he did not kill Tian Zhou, but this could not guarantee that Tian Zhou had been injured. Will he be killed by others?
Qin Jue also ate with her head down, as if she didn't hear what the elder Taishang said at all, without even raising her head.
"Well, Tianzhou's kid is also very talented. I hope he is still alive." The elder Taishang obviously knew something about the situation in the knockout competition and did not ask Qinxiao and others.
After the meal, Jian Chen and others returned to the room one after another. Since Tianzhou and the three people he brought did not come back, there were still four empty rooms left, and Yunzheng and Doctor An happened to live in them.
Back in the room, Jian Chen called Ming Dong, and the two of them began to study "The Art of Seizing Heaven and Creation" together. Although the knockout round was over, there was still a one-on-one battle, and he had to kill Jade. Wukang and Shi Xiangran, the forces behind them will definitely not let him go, so Jian Chen also needs to improve his strength as soon as possible. Right now, the only thing that can quickly improve his strength is this heaven-level combat skill. .
In the Tianzihao room in an inn in the Mercenary City, Jedewukang's body was placed on the ground, and next to him, two gray-haired old men stood there with gloomy faces, with strong killing intent in their eyes. meaning.
On the other side, the two middle-aged men who took away Jedewukang's body knelt there fearfully, their bodies shaking constantly.
"Who killed Wukang?" An old man said with a gloomy look on his face.
"Elder... Master Wu... Young Master Wukang was... killed by a person named Jian Chen." A middle-aged man said with a trembling tone.
"What about the Broken Cloud Sword that the young master carries?" Another old man shouted immediately, his eyes becoming extremely frightening.
The two middle-aged men turned pale and did not dare to speak.
"Say!" The old man who asked about the Broken Cloud Sword became furious and stared at the two of them with sharp eyes.
"It should...it should have been taken away by Jian Chen." A middle-aged man said with a trembling voice.
As soon as he finished speaking, an old man slapped the table hard, and the whole table turned into powder. He said angrily: "Trash, you two trash, what's the use of keeping you!" As he said, the old man stretched out his palm. I just wanted to slap them on the head.
Seeing this, the other old man's face changed slightly, and he immediately stopped it and said: "Third Elder, calm down, don't forget where this is, you can't do anything here."
Hearing this, the old man known as the Third Elder put down his palm with a gloomy expression, and said in a deep voice: "You two, go and inquire about Jian Chen's whereabouts immediately. You must find Jian Chen's whereabouts in the shortest possible time. King We must recover the soldiers."
"Yes, yes, Third Elder, we are going to inquire about Jian Chen's whereabouts right now." The two Rumeng Dahe left here as if they were fleeing.
At the same time, in another luxurious inn, three old men and a middle-aged man were also waiting anxiously.
"It's been such a long time, why hasn't the young master come back yet? Could there be any accident?" The middle-aged man anxiously walked back and forth in the room, his expression filled with indescribable anxiety.
Although the three old men in gray clothes did not speak, there was a hint of worry on their faces. One of them said, "Just wait and see. The fourth child has already gone out to pick up the young master. I believe he will be back soon."
"Mr. Cai, do you think there will be any accidents with Master Shi Xiangran? Otherwise, why haven't you come here for so long?" the middle-aged man couldn't help but ask.
Hearing this, the three old men also became a little uneasy. One of them said: "Don't worry, wait and see."
…
In the blink of an eye, three days passed. Three days later, a letter was delivered to Jian Chen, Ming Dong and Doctor An at the same time. The three of them successfully got the opportunity to advance, and in the center of the mercenary city A large announcement has been posted in the square. It is densely filled with the names of 500 people, all of whom have successfully advanced. The number of collected participation arrows is also marked on the back.
Doctor An and Yun Zheng, who had been out all day, immediately bought a copy of ranked copy paper in the store and gave it to Jian Chen.
When Jian Chen saw the ranking above, he couldn't help but frown slightly, because he was only ranked fourteenth after receiving one thousand eight hundred and seventy-three participation arrows, and the first place was a man named Caraga. The person's name was very unfamiliar, but he had received a total of 3,072 competition arrows, which was more than a thousand more than Jian Chen.
The second place is a man named Zaer, who has collected more than 2,700 competition arrows. He is also a strange name.
The third place winner is named Gaddafi, and he has collected more than 2,500 arrows.
The fourth place also has an unfamiliar name. It has only one character, "Jue", and has more than 2,300 arrows in the competition.
Only in fifth place did a familiar name finally appear, it turned out to be Qin Ji, who had collected more than 2,100 competition arrows.
The sixth place is Dugufeng, with two thousand and thirty.
The seventh place is Tianmu Ling, with one thousand nine hundred and sixty-five.
The eighth place is Huang Luan, one thousand nine hundred and sixty-four.
The ninth place is also a strange name, called Bailitong, one thousand nine hundred and fifty-two.
The tenth place's name is Zhuge Xiaoxuan, one thousand nine hundred and thirty-one.
There were three unfamiliar names in succession, and it was not until the fourteenth that Jian Chen's name appeared. Beneath Jian Chen were Ming Dong and Dr. An. Both of them had a thousand and five participating arrows. above.
The number of arrows collected by those at the back of the queue was also decreasing, and the last person collected only more than 300 arrows.
When Jian Chen saw the names of the characters on the rankings, he was speechless for a long time. He originally thought that only the five masters were the strongest in the knockout round, but he didn't expect that there were so many people hiding so deeply inside. It was only now that he realized When they came out of the water, the person ranked first actually collected more than 3,000 pieces. This number even Jian Chen felt shocked.
"I just don't know what their strength is." Jian Chen muttered to himself. Although he was ranked fourteenth, this ranking did not prove the level of strength.
"Jian Chen, who is this person named Karaja? Why have I never heard of his name? He can win first place. It seems that he is very strong." Dr. An asked with a frown.
Jian Chen shook his head and said: "I don't know either. It seems that we used to sit in a well and look at the sky. Tianyuan Continent is so big, there is no shortage of people with extraordinary talents. The masters participating in the mercenary competition are not just those on the surface. A few, but based on this alone, we can’t determine the level of strength.”
"Well, that's right. We will enter the finals in three days. Then we can see how strong the top ones are. However, I am sure that the three rumored ones are powerful and possess the power of the Holy Light attribute. The person must be in the top ten." Dr. An vowed.
The two chatted casually for a while, and Doctor An left the place, leaving Jian Chen alone in the room still studying the heaven-level combat skills "Seizing the Creation Technique". The heaven-level combat skills were extensive and profound, and each one was very mysterious. , even with Jian Chen's ability, he has just started to get started so far. He has only mastered the most basic part. He can barely triple his strength, but he cannot control it well. Therefore, this He didn't have time to go out for a while, so he had to master the basics of "The Art of Seizing Heaven and Creation" as soon as possible and use it skillfully.
"The Art of Seizing Heaven and Creation" is divided into eight levels. The first level is also the entry level. After entry, you can increase your own strength to three times. The second level can increase your own strength to four times. The third level can increase your own strength. The strength is increased to five times. By analogy, when one reaches the eighth level of "The Art of Seizing Heaven and Creation", one can increase one's own strength to ten times.
Although the increase in combat power of the Heaven Seizing Creation Art is a bit scary, its consumption is also very huge. How many times the strength can be increased, the consumption of the holy power is also the same multiple. Although it can greatly increase a person's combat power in a short period of time Improvement, but the terrifying consumption is destined to prevent long-lasting combat.
Jian Chen was calmly studying heaven-level combat skills in the room, and Ming Dong was doing the same. Only Qin Xiao and the others were having fun all day long. As for the Supreme Elder of the Tian Qin family, they were all in disbelief all day long.
Today, two old men in white robes, led by two middle-aged men, came to the inn where Jian Chen was staying with gloomy expressions. Then they went directly to the third floor and came to Jian Chen's room without saying anything. He kicked the door politely and kicked it open.
Jian Chen, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed studying heaven-level combat skills, slowly opened his eyes and stared calmly at the two old men with gloomy faces. He had already expected that someone would come to the door.
The two old men stared at Jian Chen with sharp eyes, and one of them shouted: "Are you Jian Chen?"
Jian Chen showed no fear at all and said: "Yes, I am Jian Chen. I don't know what the two old gentlemen call me."
"We are members of the Jade family. You can call me the third elder. This is the fourth elder!" An old man said expressionlessly.
