Chapter 926: The Two Go To War

The Lord of Dragon City! In Dragon City, all matters large and small were decided by this mysterious woman. Whilst ordinarily, the various matters of Dragon City were handled by the Huatian Palace Executors, she rarely showed herself. Now that she had appeared, many people were curious to know what she would announce.

“The Heaven List First has special rights. They can bring along their sect to challenge the eight strongest sects halfway through the tournament. If they are victorious, they may then take their place. The Heaven List First is prepared to exercise this right. Right now, may the sect that Mo Wen is in, come forth.”

Mo Qingge said these words and then quietly disappeared. As the highest decision-maker in Dragon City, she only needed to give the word. She did not need to explain. This special right was something that she conceived for Mo Wen on the spur of the moment. Formally, there had been no specific mention of it. But since she had said it there were naturally Huatian Palace referees to ensure it was a done.

Mo Wen stood up and escorted Gu Jingman calmly towards the center. He did not feel that butting in during the middle of the tournament was inappropriate.

However, Mo Qingge's words had drawn the attention of everyone present. The gazes of everyone were on the two silhouettes walking down from the stage.

Did the Heaven List First hold such a special privilege? They had never heard of it. Even in the previous Heaven List Tournaments, such an incident had never occurred before. However, the rules were set by the Huatian Palace. Since the Huatian Palace decision-maker had said so, even if it wasn't a rule, it had now become one. Nothing would change if just one or two people objected. Moreover, no one would openly oppose the Huatian Palace over such a small matter. After all, this was an institution that revered ability. If the challenger could not defeat one of the eight strongest sects then it would be of no use. If they could defeat one of the eight strongest sects that meant that they could rank among the eight strongest.

“That is the Dafang Sect. Up until now, I had not taken note of this sect.” An ancient martial art practitioner said in astonishment. He had not noticed the Dafang Sect because of their fame. In reality, he did not know where the Dafang Sect had popped out from. Compared to the top-ranking large sects in the Inner worlds, the Dafang Sect did not hold a candle to them.

However, the Heaven List First had come from the Dafang Sect. That astonishing youth had made a deep impression on many people. Hence, people couldn't help but begin to notice this Dafang Sect.

However, the Dafang Sect was different from what they imagined. They initially believed that a sect that could cultivate such a terrifying youth would be very powerful. However, in reality, the Dafang Sect was very small and weak. It did not even make it through to the Sect Tournament's preliminaries. Instead, Mo Wen seemed to be the most powerful person in the sect. This came as a surprise to many people.

Why were the young ancient martial arts practitioners from the Peng Lai Immortal Realm so powerful? There were even some among them that were far stronger than the Inner world's older generation practitioners. It was because they had the support of a very powerful sect behind them. Benefitting from the sect's power, they were cultivated and it facilitated their achievements.

As for Mo Wen, he could become equally powerful even though he was a member of such a small and weak sect.

“Why has the Dafang Sect only sent out two people? Weren't they supposed to send out five?”

“That's right. Each sect is sending out five people to fight. Why is it that they only sent out two, and two youths at that? Could it be that the Dafang Sect wants two youths to face the other sects alone?”

“Those two youths are not to be underestimated. They have the first and second place on the Heaven List. Who would have thought that a mere Dafang Sect could take the top two ranks on the Heaven List? Such a thing has never happened before.”

The ones who were most concerned about this matter were naturally the sects that had already advanced into the top eight strongest. They had not expected that such an incident would appear halfway through the tournament. Since when did the Heaven List First have such authority? They had never heard of this before.

Naturally, no one wanted to simply oppose a rule set by the Huatian Palace. Moreover, the members of the eight sects were very calm. For them to be able to rank among the top eight, their ability definitely did not need to be questioned. They were not afraid of any challenge. Moreover, the Dafang Sect was a sect that could not even make it through the preliminaries. Even if they had such a special right, they would most likely be unable to stir up a storm.

Mo Wen and Gu Jingman slowly walked down to the stage below. Looking calm and collected they moved over to stand opposite the eight sects. They completely ignored the bizarre gazes that everyone gave them.

A silhouette silently appeared between them. It was a white-robed elder. He had white hair and a white beard. He emanated an astonishing presence. It was none other than the Huatian Palace referee, a Primordial Soul realm immortal cultivator.

“You can send out five candidates for the Sect Tournament. Are you certain that only the two of you will participate?” The white-robed elder plainly asked as he looked at Mo Wen. He also thought that it was strange that the Dafang Sect had only sent out two candidates. Could it be that they were prepared to use two candidates to stand against the five from the other sects? This was too much of a joke. Moreover, they had sent out two youths.

The Peng Lai Mystery Dimension ancient martial arts practitioners were not easy to deal with. Although the people who could participate in the Martial Arts Circle Convention were limited to below the Immortal Practice realm, there were some powerful Infinite Powerhouses among them. Even the Huatian Palace referee would have a hard time dealing with them. Even if these two youths had reached the Infinite Powerhouse realm, it was unlikely that they would win against these old fellows.

“The two of us are enough,” Mo Wen said plainly.

Gu Jingman smiled sweetly as she stood beside Mo Wen. She did not say anything and left Mo Wen to decide everything.

Upon hearing this, the white-robed elder was stunned. He had not imagined that Mo Wen would give such an answer. Even arrogance could not describe this level of arrogance.

“Such an arrogant young man. The youths today are truly reaching beyond their grasp!”

Mo Wen's words were clearly not pleasant to some ears. After he finished speaking, a cold snort sounded from a person among a sect that was all dressed in crimson robes. They were among one of the eight sects standing across from them.

Mo Wen recognized at a glance that these were the members of the Blood Evil Temple. The person who had spoken was the elder standing at the very front. If Mo Wen's guess was correct, this person was Yang Zonglin that Ling Feng had mentioned before, the so-called Blood Evil Temple's strongest Infinite Powerhouse.

Because of Lord Merciless, the Blood Evil Temple and the Dafang Sect historically had a very bad relationship. Especially during the sect preliminaries, the Blood Evil Temple had intentionally gotten in their way. Otherwise, with Ling Feng's ability, how could they not have passed the sect preliminaries?

The two sects initially had a grudge. Right now, the Dafang Sect had a chance to make a comeback. The members of the Blood Evil Temple naturally could not stand it.

The members of the other sects did not have such an extreme reaction as the Blood Evil Temple. Instead, they were all very curious as they looked at Mo Wen and Gu Jingman. Could it be that these two little fellows had come to pull off a prank? With just the two of them, they did not know their own strength and yet came to challenge them. Weren't they looking down on them a little too much? Some of them were enraged and amused at the same time.

After all, those present were all members of the Peng Lai Immortal Realm sects. Their abilities in the Peng Lai Immortal Realm were rather extraordinary. These ancient martial arts practitioners from the Peng Lai Immortal Realm looked down on the ancient martial arts practitioners from the outside. They always saw themselves as the true inheritors of the heritage of Hua Xia's martial art teachings. The ancient martial arts practitioners from the outside were barbarians and were not worth mentioning at all in their eyes.

Two youths in their twenties dared to challenge them. If this was not a joke, then what was it?

It could be said that of the eight strongest sects that could participate, each had sent five Infinite Powerhouses. Although the Huatian Palace ruled that they each had to send two ancient martial arts practitioners who were below a hundred years old, a ten-year-old and a ninety-year-old were both below a hundred years old. Almost no sect would send out youths in their twenties and thirties, usually sending people in their eighties and nineties, closer to the upper age limit. Also, there were talented strong practitioners in the sect that had reached the Infinite Powerhouse realm before the age of a hundred.

Among the Eight Major Sects there was a sect that consisted only of women. Without a doubt, this was naturally the Goddess Cult. The members of this sect were all as beautiful as flowers. They all appeared to be women in their prime. The oldest among them still only seemed to be middle-aged. However, the people who were familiar with this sect all knew that, of the five members of the Goddess Cult, three of them were over a hundred years old. They were old enough to be the grandmothers of ordinary people. If people were taken in by their appearance, that was a huge mistake. They were all crones with terrifying ability.

Chu Yunli of the Goddess Cult team looked at Mo Wen curiously. As Lin Qing's master, she knew Mo Wen more than other people did. Although this person was young, he was definitely not an arrogant person. Now that the two of them had gone up, what did he intend to do? Could it be that he truly believed that, with just the two of them, they could challenge five from the other sects?

Even Chu Yunli, who looked somewhat favorably on Mo Wen, was also full of doubts right now. She did not understand at all what Mo Wen's goal was in doing this. If he truly believed that he had the ability, wasn't that being too…

“Are you certain that only the two of you will be participating in the battle?”

The referee asked once again. He wanted to get a confirmed response. The Huatian Palace did not rule that they had to send out exactly five people. At the same time, the two of them were also very young and fulfilled the criteria that two participants needed to be under the age of a hundred. He did not even need to inspect their bone age. It was because the two of them were youths that had participated in the Heaven List Tournament. They would definitely not be over fifty.

“Certain!” Mo Wen nodded his head.

“Then, which sect are you prepared to challenge? You only have one opportunity. If you lose, you will immediately be out of the tournament,” the referee said curtly.

“The Blood Evil Temple,” Mo Wen said.

“Alright! Please wait for a moment, then you can begin your battle.” The referee was very decisive. With a touch of his scepter, a beam of light descended from the sky. It then landed on the stage and formed a huge dome-shaped light shroud and almost enveloped the entire field inside its glow.

The next moment, the white-robed elder's silhouette flashed and he disappeared from his original position.

Mo Wen chose to challenge the Blood Evil Temple. It surprised quite a lot of people. After the contests in the past few days, they were somewhat familiar with the eight strongest sects. Setting aside how the factions behind the sects were, purely based on their five-man teams, the ability of the Blood Evil Temple could be ranked among the top five. It was even possible for it to be ranked among the top three. The saying goes that one should choose the path of least resistance. But among the eight sects, the Blood Evil Temple did not appear to be that.

“Humph, you don't know your own strength. Since I have taught you all a lesson before, I don't mind doing it a second time,” Yang Zonglin said with an ugly expression. Mo Wen deliberately chose the Blood Evil Temple, clearly with the intention of seeking revenge. If he let them win, where could the Blood Evil Temple hide its face? But of course, it was impossible for that to happen.
