Suddenly, countless astonished gazes fell on Chen Yi.
Ancestor of Astral Deities Worship Stage of the Four Major Sects smiled and said to Eldest Prince, "Eldest Prince, the subordinate of yours is very confident in himself."
Eldest Prince returned the toast and said: "Not only him, this prince is also very confident."
"Oh?" Ancestor of Astral Deities Worship Stage's eyes lit up. They also had some understanding of Eldest Prince's character. For Eldest Prince to say something like this, it meant that this young man called Chen Yi must be extraordinary.
The expressions of the Heavenly Pride s of the Four Major Sects all froze.
Commandery Prince of Yunlan was the overlord of the Yunlan County on the surface, so Eldest Prince's status was naturally extraordinary. The Heavenly Pride s of the Four Major Sects also did not dare to offend Eldest Prince, but it did not mean that they were convinced in their hearts.
The four great sects that were beaten with iron, and Commandery Prince of Yunlan that was beaten with water.
The Four Major Sects have been standing in the Yunlan County for who knows how many years, but what about Commandery Prince of Yunlan?
How many years can each Commandery Prince of Yunlan stay?
Therefore, although the Four Major Sects and Heavenly Pride s spoke with respect when facing Eldest Prince and the others, their hearts were filled with pride.
Commandery Prince of Yunlan was big because Commandery Prince of Yunlan represented the Liangyue Empire. With just a single order, everyone had to give him some face.
However, Commandery Prince of Yunlan's true direct line of descent power could not be compared to the four great sects. Commandery Prince of Yunlan had only succeeded them for dozens of years. How could the strength that he cultivated for dozens of years be compared to the four great sects that had deep roots?
Many Yuan Combination Stage experts in Yunlan County City were raised up by the previous Commandery Prince of Yunlan. Although they had listened to Commandery Prince of Yunlan's orders, they couldn't be considered as Commandery Prince of Yunlan's direct descendants.
Therefore, when they saw that only one of the four people Eldest Prince brought along managed to get a spot in the finals, they felt like they were watching a joke.
Now that they saw Eldest Prince praise a young man like this, the Heavenly Pride s of the Four Major Sects also paid more attention to Chen Yi.
Even Qin Feishan, who was previously at the Quasi-innate realm, was not praised so highly by Eldest Prince.
Could it be that this boy called Chen Yi was stronger than Qin Feishan?
"With Eldest Prince's character, perhaps this Chen Yi is even stronger than Qin Feishan. Qin Feishan's strength is not weak, and this time he is even stronger than Qin Feishan. He is definitely an expert." Jiang Junhua said in a low voice to Liu Tie beside him.
Jiang Junhua's expression turned serious.
The software facilities of Qin Feishan (the awakened bloodline, the sacred art he grasped, the sword aura he comprehended, and so on) were not as good as Jiang Junhua's. However, in terms of hardware facilities, in other words, his cultivation realm was above Jiang Junhua's.
Therefore, in terms of overall strength, it wasn't that easy for Jiang Junhua to win against Qin Feishan.
Being stronger than Qin Feishan meant that he was very likely to be on par with Jiang Junhua, maybe even stronger than Jiang Junhua!
Liang Yuanguang said in a low voice, "It doesn't matter, we won't be a match for them after all."
Jiang Junhua nodded: "That's for sure."
After all, Eldest Prince couldn't possibly praise this kid as having innate strength.
Eldest Prince's attention to Chen Yi, made the Four Major Sects Ancestor of Astral Deities Worship Stage and Heavenly Pride s have a strong interest in Chen Yi.
On the other side, Chen Yi slowly walked towards the Green Spirit Square. He first bowed towards Taoist Scholar Qiyuan, then looked around, and said loudly: "Yunlan County City, Chen Yi, please enlighten me!"
"He went on stage?" On Profound Imagery Sect's side, Du Yangpeng and the others were all dumbstruck. They thought that Chen Yi hadn't gone up on stage for such a long period of time because like them, he was also here to broaden his horizons and didn't have the strength to come on stage.
In the end, the level of the battle became higher and higher, and most of them were at the great perfection of Circulation Stage, and Chen Yi actually made an appearance?
Could it be that Chen Yi was at the perfection-stage of the Circulation Stage?
How was this possible!
It was just over four years. Four years ago, Chen Yi clearly only had six meridians.
During the period of eight meridians in Minor Circulation, didn't one need to accumulate all of their reserves?
Lu Mannling scoffed, "As expected, he still has that kind of flamboyant personality. Did he really think that he can be as impudent as Yongde Town when he's not even looking at any occasions?"
However, Lu Mannling had forgotten that when she was at Yongde Town, she was even more presumptuous and overbearing. Chen Yi just didn't want to lower his head and became presumptuous because of what Lu Mannling said.
This was a typical reversal of the truth!
Lu Mannling suddenly stood up and said, "I'll give it a try."
Lu Leexuan stopped Lu Mannling, "Since that brat dared to make a move, his strength must not be weak. Let your Senior Brother go."
Lu Mannling only had Ninth Meridian Circulation Stage. Under the situation where she was basically at the great perfection of Circulation Stage, she was too weak.
Zhang Xiu also stood up and said, "Yes, Junior Sister, leave it to me. I will definitely help you vent your anger."
"Senior Brother, do you think I'm not as good as that bastard?" Lu Mannling's tone was slightly unhappy.
Zhang Xiu did not dare to answer and looked embarrassed. Who asked Lu Mannling to have a special identity? She was the daughter of Sect Leader.
During this short period of delay, someone had already challenged Chen Yi, so Lu Mannling had no choice but to return her attention to Chen Yi.
Out of the four people Eldest Prince had brought with him, only Qin Feishan was slightly famous. On the other hand, Fei Mengmeng and Miao Feiyu did not know that Yunlan County had no Heavenly Pride Ranking, so many of the Heavenly Pride s were not well-known.
In the eyes of the crowd, Chen Yi was so young, yet they had never heard of him. Even in Large Circulation, his strength should be average, at least weaker than Fei Mengmeng and Miao Feiyu.
It was even more likely that he hadn't even stepped into the Large Circulation.
Therefore, the first person to challenge Chen Yi, was someone who had completed Circulation Stage Great Perfection.
Chen Yi flicked his finger and the thick Genuine Qi turned into a stream of sword Qi, fiercely rushing forward.
When the opponent felt the sword qi, his expression changed and he quickly waved his sword.
The sword qi and the sword clashed, and with a loud bang, the sword shattered. The remaining strength in the sword sent the other party flying.
With Chen Yi's current Pure Yang Genuine Qi and the seventh stage of All-power Spell, the sword qi that the Genuine Qi transformed into had reached the innate realm. Killing a set of Eleventh Meridian Circulation Stage was as easy as killing a man with one strike!
However, even if he had retracted his attack, the sword Qi had still severely injured his opponent. The other party was already lying on the ground, unable to get up.
The remnant sword energy even entered his eight extraordinary meridians and his five viscera and six organs through his wounds.
The difference in strength between the two sides was too great!
The elder immediately took action, first covering the wound with a bottle of medicine, then pressing his palm on the elder's back. Separated by the body, he used the Genuine Qi to disperse the remnants of sword qi in the elder's body.
The elder raised his head and looked at Chen Yi, his eyes were filled with shock.
This sword qi, Chen Yi did not hold back much, but the quality was right there. The opponent's seniors once possessed the Great Circulation Stage as well, and a Large Circulation with a deep foundation that allowed Genuine Qi to step into the highest level, how could they not know the power of the Great Circulation Stage's Superior Genuine Qi?
It was precisely because of this that he was so shocked.
The Genuine Qi that made up this Sword Qi was far more powerful than the Superior Genuine Qi!
"It's at least a Pure and Flawless Genuine Qi!"
"What a monstrous kid. Where did Eldest Prince find him?"
"Such a monstrous genius, yet also highly valued by Eldest Prince. His future is boundless."
"In addition, the sword Qi remaining in her body has already been withdrawn. She is not to be offended."
So, that Innate did not get angry because his family's young generation was heavily injured. Perhaps he would not be able to attack again, so he amiably clasped his hands at Chen Yi and backed away.
It was only now that all the Heavenly Pride sucked in a deep breath.
They were no match for Chen Yi, nor were they the Innate Ranker. In the end, they did not manage to personally experience Chen Yi's strength, but they were still Heavenly Pride and had a good background.
It could be seen that even though Chen Yi was young, his A Great Circulation was already at the peak of the realm, and he even possessed an extremely deep foundation at the perfection stage of the Large Circulation.
His strength was probably above Fei Mengmeng and Miao Tianyu.
As a result, those who had been eager to try, who had achieved great completion in the Circulation Stage, all shrunk back.
When the difference between the two parties reached a certain point, even if one side held back, the other side would still be severely injured. Many of them had the strength to compete for the finals, but they had to ensure that they wouldn't be injured.
On Profound Imagery Sect's side, Du Yangpeng and the rest widened their eyes: "Large Circulation?"
Ah, Large Circulation, in terms of Yongde Town, he is definitely an invincible figure.
Chen Yi only had six meridians four years ago, and after four years, he actually rose dramatically to the Large Circulation?
Or a perfect Large Circulation?
After obtaining the cyan Spirit Fruit, wouldn't that mean he had directly broken through to the Quasi-innate?
With Quasi-innate not even twenty years old, how long would it take to become an innate expert?
Du Yangpeng and the others were jealous, fearful, jealous of Chen Yi's talent, and also fearful of Chen Yi's talent. They were not stupid, not to mention Chen Yi's potential, the strength Chen Yi displayed was not something they could provoke.
Lu Mannling's expression was slightly distorted.
How is this possible!?
How is this possible!?
That bastard, what right did he have to break through to the Large Circulation!
However, no matter how angry Lu Mannling was, she had to admit that he didn't have the qualifications to attack Chen Yi.
Lu Leexuan said in a deep voice, "Ling'er, you are not allowed to attack again. That brat might hold back against others, but not you!"
Lu Leexuan turned his head to look at Zhang Xiu as he said, "Master, I am not a match for you."
Chen Yi was just a nobody. Zhang Xiu, who had previously boasted shamelessly that he would teach Chen Yi a lesson on Lu Mannling's behalf, immediately shrunk.
Lu Leexuan's face darkened. He didn't expect his disciple to be so cowardly.
"I didn't think that this brat would be so monstrous. Ling'er, come and apologize to me after today."
"Father, I still need to apologize?" Lu Mannling was stunned.
This time, Lu Leexuan would not protect Lu Mannling no matter what. The strength and talent Chen Yi displayed made it difficult for him to eat and sleep. Who knew if he would be jealous of what his daughter did four years ago.
Other than his father, no one else in the entire Profound Imagery Sect would be his match if he were to be promoted to the Innate Realm.
If he could resolve their grudge as soon as possible, then so could he.
Lu Leexuan had no intention of silencing Ye Xiwen. Chen Yi was someone that Eldest Prince valued!
"Ling'er!" Do not bring disaster to the Profound Imagery Sect! " Lu Leexuan shouted.
It was the first time that Lu Mannling had seen her father so angry. She immediately realized that her father was serious this time and could not help but lower her head in dissatisfaction.
She knew that now that her father was serious, she was no longer able to resist.
Lu Mannling bit her lips in humiliation.
Chen Yi did not know about what happened at the Profound Imagery Sect. From the beginning to the end, he had never put anyone at the Profound Imagery Sect in his eyes.
If it were not for the Cyan Spirit Fruit, he would not have come to this convention.
He and the Heavenly Pride of the Blue Spirit Fruit Conference had long since been two different levels.
It was true that many of the Large Circulation Heavenly Pride s were not willing to fight Chen Yijiao, but there were also some who wanted to use the pressure brought by Chen Yi's help to break through.
Amongst these Large Circulation, there were some experts, but Chen Yi was still able to defeat his opponent with a single sword qi.
Regardless of whether the opponent used their bloodline or sacred art, they were all unable to defend against Chen Yi's sword energy.
Such a terrifying strength caused many Heavenly Pride to be shocked.
Even Ancestor of Astral Deities Worship Stage was stunned.
They had seen too much of the Heavenly Pride, but it was very rare for someone to be this powerful on the level of the Great Circulation Stage.
If he were to use his bloodline and sacred art, how powerful would he be?
Liang Yuanguang of the Sky Capital School, Qian Yonghang of the Flowing Sand Pavilion Clan, and Su Hanyun of the Wen Qing Sect all had extremely serious expressions. The strength they had displayed earlier had already touched upon the level of Innate.
It was not worse than Chen Yi's current performance.
They still had some trump cards that they had yet to use, so they should be a bit stronger.
However, it was impossible for the Genuine Qi to reach such a level just by condensing a sword qi.
The three of them looked at each other with a heavy heart.
They had originally thought that the three of them were each other's biggest enemy, but now it seemed that Eldest Prince's Chen Yi was.
The three Heavenly Pride s had no choice but to admit that they did not have absolute confidence in winning.
Chen Yi did what he said, it would only take a short while.
It was an easy feat for Chen Yi to win ten consecutive victories. After getting a spot in the finals, he saluted Taoist Scholar Qiyuan and slowly walked behind Eldest Prince.
Second Prince gave Chen Yi a thumbs up, and Jingxue laughed excitedly.
Qin Feishan and the other two said, "Chen Yi, you aren't human, are you?"
Chen Yi said helplessly, "If it's not a human, then what is it? Is it a god? "
"Maybe. Maybe you are the son of some god?" Miao Tianyu ridiculed.
Chen Yi rolled his eyes at Miao Tianyu, "God? "Where did this Empyrean God come from?"
After teasing each other for a while, the four of them obediently continued watching the competition.
Ancestor of Astral Deities Worship Stage of the four great sects began asking Eldest Prince for all sorts of information about Chen Yi. Eldest Prince responded with a smile, but didn't reveal any of it.
"Eldest Prince," said Ancestor of Astral Deities Worship Stage of the Tiandu Sect, "You should just reveal a little about yourself. Since you don't know your background, tell me if your follower has awakened any blood vessels."
Green Spirit Sect Elder Sect Leader, Astral Deities Worship Stage Elder, the other two great patriarchs, and the Heavenly Pride s all listened attentively.
Eldest Prince smiled and said, "Don't be so anxious. You can see it in the finals anyway."
"However …"
Eldest Prince looked at the Heavenly Capital School Ancestor of Astral Deities Worship Stage and said: "Strictly speaking, Chen Yi is not this prince's follower, but a Red Dragon Guard!"
"Red Dragon Guard?" The crowd was stunned, but their hearts shivered at the thought.
A mere Great Circulation Stage, could actually become a Red Dragon Guard.
The power he had displayed previously was indeed only a small part of it.
Time flew by and the preliminaries came to an end.
After Chen Yizhi, about four hours later, the forty-eight finalists finally came out. Miao Tianyu and Fei Mengmeng rushed into the finals with their tails between their legs.
Sure enough, all forty-eight of them were Great Circulation Stage. Under Great Circulation Stage, not a single one of them appeared, and there were a total of eight of them.
Among them, two were from the Tiandu Sect, one was from the Flowing Sand Pavilion, one was from the Wen Qing Sect, one was from Qin Feishan, and three others were from ordinary first-rate sects and clans.
For example, they couldn't beat Jiang Junhua of the Sky Capital Sect.
Compared to Qin Feishan, they were slightly worse.
Chen Yi stood behind Eldest Prince, a trace of doubt appearing on his face.
From the very beginning, he didn't see anyone from the Profound Imagery Sect make a move.
How could Chen Yi know that all of this was due to him.
Lu Leexuan was worried that wandering in front of Chen Yi would cause Chen Yi to feel disgusted. If Chen Yi said anything in Eldest Prince's ears, the Profound Imagery Sect might become worse.
As such, he might as well pretend that he had never been in the future and not be a nuisance to others.
Lu Leexuan planned to bring his daughter to apologize immediately after the preliminaries. If he couldn't apologize, then he would return to the sect and move to another sect.
They moved to places outside of the Yunlan County, and even further places, such as areas ruled by the three major sects.
Although it would be a lot of loss, it was still better than having Eldest Prince lead a group of Innates to destroy their Profound Imagery Sect.
Before Chen Yi displayed enough value, Eldest Prince might not help Chen Yi. However, once Chen Yi displayed enough value, it might not be so.
In the square, Taoist Scholar Qiyuan said, "Today's preliminaries are over. The forty-eight people who broke into the finals will rest well today and adjust their condition to prepare for tomorrow's finals."
