Jiang Feng's gaze fell onto the mountain peak and he discovered that there were nine large bronze bells hung side by side on top of it. They were about fifteen to sixty meters tall, and their surfaces were mottled with a vicissitudes of life.
"I wonder how Holy Lord Fushe wishes to compete?" Elder Yuan Zhong asked.
Since there are no grudges between us two forces, we only want to cooperate, in that case, we do not need to use blades and spears in this so-called competition, nor do we need to use bloodshed. So I suggest that each pick ten people, and we will respectively ring the bronze bell of nine palaces, and according to the sound of the bronze bell, we will use points. According to the system, one bronze bell will be one minute, and two bronze bells will be two points.
"That's good. I have no objections." Although the two sides were playing a game, they had not yet reached the point of fighting for the quota through battle. The method proposed by the other side was just right, after all, the disciples that he had brought with him, in terms of overall power, were actually not as powerful as the Great Saint Lands, and it was not because the Nine Emperor Mountain did not have the power to shake the Great Saint Lands, but because the Great Saint Lands had developed a new generation of young disciples that their overall strength was above the Nine Emperor Mountain.
After both sides agreed on the rules for the competition, they began to choose their disciples.
"Yu Qing!" The first person Elder Yuan Zhong called out was a tall and cold lady. Her figure was very slim, but she was not gentle or beautiful like before. Instead, she had a bit of a heroic air around her, and the clothes she wore was also very clean and comfortable.
Jiang Feng thought that the first person to be called out by Yuan Chong would be Su Yang, but he never thought that it would be a woman. Since she was called out first, this meant that this woman held more weight than Su Yang in the heart of Yuan Chong, and should be the Nine Emperor Mountain's strongest genius.
"Luoshen!" The most eye-catching thing was that the first disciple called out by Sacred Master Fushe was also a woman. Moreover, it was an extremely beautiful woman with a light immortal mist surrounding her body.
Yu Qing's temperament was cold, as if she had suffered an endless amount of injuries in the mortal world, forming a layer of ice that protected her. As for Luoshen, her temperament was that of an immortal.
The eyes of many of the men present were filled with adoration and admiration when they looked at Luo Qing. Similarly, the eyes they looked at Yu Qing with were also filled with ripples.
"Su Yang!" Elder Yuan Chong continued to shout, and the second person was Su Yang.
On the other side, Saint Lord Fushe had also called out the second person. It was another woman. Her beauty was similarly dazzling, but standing together with Luo Chen, it made her feel a bit sad.
There were a lot of female disciples in the Sacred Ground, and the ones with outstanding strength were basically all female disciples.
Elder Yuan Chong had to call for the tenth person before Xia Xiaoji came out.
To be able to be invited by the Nine Emperor Mountain to this place, even though Xia Xiaoji's strength could not be compared to the top disciples of the Nine Emperor Mountain, he was still highly regarded by Elder Yuan Chong.
After Elder Yuan Zhong had finished choosing his disciples, Saint Lord Fushe had also chosen his ten disciples. There were actually seven women, only three men.
These three men gave Jiang Feng a very strange feeling. The auras of the three of them were a little different than the auras of Luo Qing and the other seven girls. In other words, the auras of these three people were different from the auras of the disciples from the Duanzhen Sacred Grounds.
Jiang Feng suddenly had a wild guess, that these three men were cultivators from the outside.
"Choose all ten people, then let's begin the competition." Saint Lord Fushe announced in a loud voice.
"We are the hosts. Then, let the disciple Fu Huang to go first. Who wants to be the first one to go up?" Saint Lord Fushe looked at the ten disciples.
"Reporting to the Holy Lord, I'll go first." A man suddenly walked out.
"Alright!" Saint Lord Fushe nodded. With a light tap of his feet, the man flew up to the peak of the mountain.
After arriving at the mountain peak, he glanced at the bronze bell in the nine palaces. After activating his immortal elemental energy, a shocking amount of energy erupted from his hands as he sent a palm strike towards the nine palaces' bronze cauldron.
"BOOM!"
In that instant, a deafening dull sound reverberated from the nine palaces' cauldron.
"BOOM!"
Next, the sound of a second bronze bell rang out. It was the same muffled sound as before, but not as intense as the first.
After the two bells rang out, there was no longer a third chime. This meant that the disciple had only played two times.
"To be able to reach the initial Spirit Realm, you only have to ring two bronze bells. These nine bronze bells are indeed not simple." Jiang Feng looked at the mountain peak with a surprised expression.
The disciple who had acted was clearly disappointed as well. He shook his head slightly with a regretful expression on his face as he flew down from the mountain.
Even after using all his strength, he was still only able to ring two bronze bells. It was hard to imagine how strong he needed to be in order to ring all nine bronze bells.
Immediately after, the second disciple of the Duanzhen Sacred Ground also made his move. He flew to the peak of the mountain with a swift and fierce stance and used all his strength to attack, fiercely striking the bronze bell.
After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, five disciples had already made their moves. The three men with different auras were the first to make their moves. Their results were the same as the others as they obtained two points.
As for the fourth and fifth female disciples, one of them also had two points, while the other rang three bronze bells, shocking the entire audience and causing everyone to look at her in a different light.
The disciples of Nine Emperor Mountain had all heard of the mysteries of the bronze bell within the Nine Palace. It was said that ordinary Soul Realm cultivators would find it difficult to even ring a copper bell.
The four disciples from the Flowing Gold Holy Lands were chosen out of the crowd, so naturally, they represented a certain level of strength.
However, even they had only sounded out four bronze bells. Only the fifth person had rung out three. From this, it could be seen how outstanding this young man was.
Soon after, the sixth, seventh, and eighth people all made their moves. But among these people, the best result was also three bronze bells. No one else had broken this record.
When the ninth person made his move, everyone revealed expressions of curiosity. That woman's hands transformed into countless arms in the air. They were like Thousand-hand Guan Yin. They dazzled people's eyes.
