By the time the registration for the Grand Arena competition closed, the number of geniuses who met the conditions was already in the tens of thousands.
If these ten thousand people were allowed to compete step by step and continue to fight in the ring, it would take a lot of time.
Therefore, the organizers conducted many rounds of assessments on the talented contestants until they were eliminated and only about a thousand people remained. Only then did the participants in the ring competition be completely finalized.
In these assessments, one after another once unknown geniuses shined brightly, entered the field of vision of Daxuan Kingdom, and became a topic of conversation for a while.
Gu Daoyi and Feng Menger naturally passed the assessment without any setbacks.
In the blink of an eye, it was the eve of the big competition.
Outside Gu Daoyi's residence, Jiang Yuanjun's cautious voice sounded:
"The ancient master, Miss Lu Yunting of Wu Xuan Sect, Fairy Shangguan Hongxiu, and a young master named Xiao want to see you. Do you want them to see you?"
Jiang Yuanjun waited for a moment before seeing Feng Meng'er open the door and say:
"Let them all come in."
"yes."
Jiang Yuanjun nodded respectfully and turned to invite people in.
Feng Meng'er stood outside the door, a little strange in her heart. She could understand that Sister Lu and Sister Shangguan were coming, but who was the one named Xiao? Could it be...
And soon, her guess was confirmed.
When Jiang Yuanjun came back, he was followed by three people. Two of them were extremely beautiful and had their own merits. They were Lu Yunting and Shangguan Hongxiu.
The person walking at the back was a young man with a slim build, a calm and determined look, and an extraordinary temperament.
It was Xiao Yunming, the former second son of the Xiao family.
Feng Meng'er was slightly shocked when she saw the person coming.
Sure enough, it was him, but didn't dad tell Xiao Yunming to come to him after he had completely figured it out? Has the other party already figured it out?
But in the end, Feng Meng'er didn't ask any more questions, but enthusiastically welcomed the three of them into the hall.
Entering the main hall, everyone saw Gu Daoyi sitting in meditation with his eyes closed as usual, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth around him continued to stir.
Although the aura he exuded was only at the peak of the second realm, it put heavy pressure on Lu Yunting and Shangguan Hongxiu, who had already reached the third realm.
This made the two women sigh in their hearts. After not seeing each other for a few days, the ancient senior has become stronger again!
The most shocked person was Xiao Yunming.
When we parted last time, Gu Daoyi's cultivation had only just entered the second level.
But now, he has reached the peak of the second realm, and he is obviously practicing ancient martial arts that are far superior to the current mainstream martial arts.
Not only Gu Daoyi, but also Feng Meng'er's cultivation level has improved tremendously, and she is also at the peak of the second realm.
In comparison, the achievements I have made during this period of hard work to reach the second level are nothing at all.
Even if his heart is as solid as stone, seeing this scene will inevitably cause him to feel a little frustrated.
While everyone was in different moods, Gu Dao finished his practice and slowly opened his eyes.
"You came to the capital of Daxuan Kingdom for the sake of the mysterious realm?"
Lu Yunting nodded and said:
"Yes, this grand arena match is a grand event that only happens once in a thousand years. There are so many powerful people. We Wu Xuanzong naturally want to get involved, so my brother sent me and Sister Shangguan here."
As she spoke, she looked at Shangguan Hongxiu with a smile, and said with a hint of teasing in her tone:
"But Sister Shangguan doesn't seem to be particularly concerned about the mysterious realm."
"She took the initiative to come to the capital, it seems, to meet someone."
Shangguan Hongxiu's pretty face turned slightly red, and she said slightly angrily:
"Yunting, don't talk nonsense."
As he said that, he subconsciously looked at Gu Daoyi's face and found that his expression had not changed at all, and he was slightly disappointed.
Feng Menger said with a smile:
"That's great. After entering the mysterious realm, we can explore the secret realm together."
"Sister Lu, Sister Shangguan, don't you know that my father can also enter the Mysterious Realm, and the age limit can't stop him."
Lu Yunting was surprised when she heard the news, while Shangguan Hongxiu's eyes lit up.
She came here just to see Gu Dao Yi again, but she didn't expect that she would have the opportunity to explore the secret realm with Gu Dao Yi. This was an unexpected surprise for her.
Lu Yunting also became serious, and she realized that this was an opportunity for her.
Originally, she came here just to show her face. It didn't matter whether she could enter the mysterious realm, but now she changed her mind and she must get into the top 100.
In this way, you can follow the ancient path to explore the secret realm and gain a lot of benefits.
She knew the temperament of this ancient senior very well, and he always only took what he needed.
No matter how precious the things he doesn't need, he will generously give them to others. Even if he just drinks soup with his ancient predecessors, he can still get a huge improvement.
At this time, Xiao Yunming, who had been silent, also spoke:
"Senior Gu, I think I have already chosen the path you asked me to choose."
"oh?"
Gu Dao looked at Xiao Yunming with a bit of admiration in his eyes:
"The time for you to understand the Taoist mind is much faster than I expected."
"In terms of understanding, you are very good. I wonder which path you have decided to take?"
As soon as these words came out, Lu Yunting, Shangguan Hongxiu and others immediately looked at Xiao Yunming, their eyes full of surprise.
This young man who is only in the second level can actually receive such a high evaluation from his ancient predecessors, which is enough to show how extraordinary he is!
Just listen to Xiao Yunming say slowly:
"When I thought about the Xiao family's case without any personal feelings, I found that the fault did lie with the Xiao family."
"They want to kill you, and it's reasonable for you to kill them."
"After thinking about all this, my state of mind became calmer than ever before. I abandoned the worldly world and only pursued the martial arts."
"Senior Ancient, do I find my own way in this way?"
As he spoke, he raised his head, his eyes had become stagnant, and it seemed that nothing could shake him anymore.
Gudao smiled, nodded and said:
"It seems that you have indeed found your own way. If you can take this way to the extreme, you can replace God's will with your own will."
"150,000 years ago, the world of Hongyuan suffered heavy losses. The way of heaven was in chaos, day and night were not differentiated, the sky collapsed and the earth was torn apart, and it was on the verge of collapse."
"At the critical moment of life and death, the Taoist ancestors of the Hongyuan world stepped forward, combined their bodies with Taoism, complemented the way of heaven, and saved the building from falling."
"At this point, Hong Yuan Dao Ancestor incarnated God's will, and the entire Hong Yuan world came under his control. To this day, the Hong Yuan world is still peaceful and as strong as before. Hong Yuan Dao Ancestor's will has never declined."
Speaking of this, he looked at Xiao Yunming with a serious tone:
"If you can take your Tao to the extreme, you can also do everything that Taoist Hong Yuan did, and even surpass him."
“Substitute your own will for God’s will!”
Xiao Yunming was slightly startled. He could not imagine what kind of state it was, nor did he expect that Gu Daoyi had such high expectations for him.
But in the end, he didn't say much, just nodded and said:
"No matter where I get to, I'll try my best."
"Even if I die on the road, I am willing to do so."
Gu Daoyi smiled lightly and said:
"I have a direct line of inheritance here. If you want it, I can give it to you."
However, Xiao Yunming shook his head:
"No need, I have read the true biography of the Ancient Lin Shen Sect and know the cultivation methods of each realm of ancient martial arts."
"I only need to know these. As for the exercises and martial arts for each realm, I will create them myself."
The appreciation in the first glance of the ancient road is even greater:
"You are so young and have already implemented the path of martial arts. Based on this alone, you can defeat countless talented people."
"If you could have been born a hundred thousand years earlier, I would definitely accept you as my disciple."
