The Ancient Godly Monarch
Chapter 118: A year is too long

Luo Qianqiu, the Ye Clan, the Ou Clan, the Mu Clan, and the Yan Clan all saw Qin Wentian, but they each thought of different things.

Although it could be said that Qin Wentian's strength was quite good, since he had defeated Yanaro in the past, he still seemed to be unable to obtain a rank in Jun Lin's Banquet.

"He is Wen Qintian, right?" From the direction of the Mu Clan, an elder asked Mu Rou standing beside him in a low voice as he looked at Qin Wentian's portrait.

"Yes." Yeah." Mu Rou lightly nodded, a flash of incredible splendor flashing in her gaze towards Qin Wentian. That divine inscription painting gave him a promise from Gong Yang Hong. Right now, he had yet to personally voice his gratitude to Qin Wentian.

However, Wen Rou was also somewhat worried. The competition in Jun Lin Banquet could not compare to a simple pointer exchange. The Chu State had always been a cultivation-oriented world, and in this grandest arena of the Chu State, everyone wanted to fight for good rankings. Thus, these fights would be extremely brutal; injuries and deaths were very common. However, if one side conceded, the other side would have to give up.

Moreover, as long as the words "I admit" were not spoken, one could mercilessly and kill their opponent there in Jun Lin. This is not an unusual or strange sight.

No matter which academy or which young force was outstanding, if they died in battle because they refused to admit defeat, the opponent could not be blamed.

Autumn Snow clearly saw that figure. She always had a very burdensome problem in her mind as her partner who had always wanted her to stop her engagement was now gradually growing further and further away from her.

"He might just attend Jun Lin's Banquet just to join in the fun." Autumn Snow thought, as if comforting herself.

“He only plays a supporting role. Did this disciple who participated in Jun Lin's Banquet end up being insulted by the others, where was the interest? "Bai Qingsong calmly stated, as if he had deliberately told Snowfall. Clearly he knew the woman's internal thoughts were conflicting because she also had a similar problem.

Jiang Xiu's current gaze was as sharp as a sword. Qin Wentian signed up for the 9th towering platform, just like himself.

This meant that the two of them had a chance to clash with each other.

And after thinking of this, a cold smile hung on Jiang Xiu's face. He hoped that Qin Wentian would have enough strength to not be eliminated too early, before having a chance to meet him.

Yanaro, also had an ice-cold expression on his face. He also signed up for the 9th towering platform.

Very quickly, people stopped walking towards the 9th platform. Those who wanted to participate in Jun Lin Banquet had completed their registration, and there were at least over 100 registered contestants for each of the towering platforms.

Of course, the platform with the lowest number of signups is the 1st platform. The two cultivators who obtained the highest level of recognition – Luo Qianqiu and Sikong Mingyue, were already there. Who would dare to register there? When compared to other platforms, platform 1 has almost no hope for them.

In the area occupied by the Divine Weapon Pavilion, the person sitting at the very front seat attracted the most attention. The woman looked to be 25-26 years old, had beauty and exuded the taste of a mature woman, making her very attractive. This was none other than the vice president of the Divine Weapon Pavilion, An Liuyan.

At that moment, An Liuyan lightly smiled as he looked at the nine platforms and said, The “18 people who obtained the highest level of recognition split very well. Coincidentally, each platform only contained 2 people, as if they had a tacit agreement. ”

“In this way, others can be tested. If one wanted to break through the nine platforms, they would have to pass through these people. "The close Chen smiled. "That person, Qin Wentian, his level of strength would be considered somewhat weak among the people on the 9th platform. There, rank 10 of the 10 prodigies, Jiang Xiu, and the 7 Nights of the Seven Nights were also there. Compared to other platforms, I feel that the 9th platform should be the easiest place to get a win. "

"You made a mistake there."

An Liuyan smiled, “It is precisely because everyone thinks this platform is easiest to break down that some stronger people will sign up for it. For example, Luo Chen of the Emperor Star Academy was not weak, and Yanaro had managed to break through the 8th level of the Arterial Circulation, so his strength should also be worthy. So, I really thought that the competition on the ninth platform would be the fiercest. ”

"I'm not actually considering that. Our Divine Weapon Pavilion does not know much about these young men. However, other powerful figures might be able to easily see through these clues, right? "Yang Chen laughed. But at that moment, he saw the person standing next to Chu Tianjiao once again open his mouth, "Did the Nine Martial Academies send the designated representative out?"

Within the Nine Martial Academies each, a total of nine representatives stood up, and they soared through the sky, landing on each of the towering platforms.

The representatives of the Nine Martial Academies would serve as the judges of each platform, and be responsible for choosing which contestants would participate in each battle.

"Will it finally begin?" In the vast Chu Emperor District, countless gazes trained on the nine looming platforms.

The spectators did not seem to care much about the delicious food and wine served at the large banquet. Instead, their attention and anticipation is on their students, hoping that they will be able to perform amazingly and achieve good results.

"Platform 1, Luo Qianqiu versus Hiryu."

"Platform 2, Sword 2 versus Bai Ming."

"Platform 3, Night 3 versus Wang Xiao."

The Three Swords and Seven Nights of the Snowcloud Country did not use their real names for registration. Instead, they chose to use their namesake, as Sword and Night instead.

The gazes of the spectators shifted along with the commotion, and very quickly, their gazes landed onto the 9th towering platform magistrate. Jiang Xiu adopted an extremely excited attitude, as if he could not wait to fight. According to all eight platforms looming in front of him, the first name to shout, was the name that gained the highest level of recognition. If that was the case, on the 9th towering platform, the name that shouted should be her.

And when the voice faded, it caused Jiang Xiu's face to freeze as he glanced towards the 9th platform magistrate. The first name that the judge shouted, was indeed Jiang Xiu, but who would have thought that, his opponent was actually, Qin Wentian.

"Qind..Wen..Tian." After being shocked for a moment, the corner of Jiang Xiu's lips curled up into a cold smile.

This was the first battle of Jun Lin's Banquet. This year was the first time Jiang Xiu had stood on the stage of Jun Lin's Supper. Similarly, this was also the first time for Qin Wentian.

Wouldn't it be an interesting sight if a genius divine inscription grandmaster, other than being a talented cultivator admired by many, was knocked down by the cruel reality of the arena during his first battle?

Qin Wentian was also stunned, and light flickered in his eyes. Glancing at the 9th platform magistrate, he couldn't help but think: did this fellow intentionally do this?

To think that the members of the 10 prodigies would actually start the first battle. Although Jiang Xiu was ranked last among the prodigies, no one could doubt his strength.

The crowd was also dumbfounded. The names of Jiang Xiu and Qin Wentian were like lightning roaring in their ears, both of them were extremely famous.

One of them was one of the 10 prodigies, while the other was the most talented divine inscription grandmaster in the Capital, who was also known to have an extremely high level of martial prowess.

They will clash in the first round. Platform 9 fights instantly attract more attention from the crowd than platform 1 does.

At this moment, many thought that perhaps this time, Qin Wentian treated Jun Lin's Banquet as a training session. Could it be that the first battle would just end? If that's the case, isn't that too ridiculous?

The judge seemed to have an evil sense of humor. However, no one commented too much about it. After all, the competition within Jun Lin Banquet would be determined by one's level of strength, and the judges had the authority to choose whichever contestant they wanted.

"Remember, safety first." Qin Yao did not have the same thoughts as the others, as she straightened out Qin Wentian's clothes, smiling vigorously. He did not care whether Qin Wentian won or lost, but only about his safety.

"Do your best, don't disappoint us," Luo Huan laughed. This battle had a huge amount of pressure waiting for it.

"Boss, it's all up to you now," Fan Le opened his lips with a grin. Right now, Heaven's Wonder had yet to release a level bet for Qin Wentian, and even if they did, there wouldn't be many people betting on Qin Wentian. Fatty was waiting, waiting for Qin Wentian to finish his first battle. But who would have thought that his chance would come so soon? As long as Qin Wentian defeated Jiang Xiu, the people in Heaven's Wonder would naturally calculate the rates to bet on Qin Wentian.

"i'll do my best." Qin Wentian smiled as he walked towards the 9th platform. A moment later, he stood on top of the arena which was the 9th platform.

Jiang Xiu also climbed onto the platform, appearing in front of Qin Wentian.

The 18 elites simultaneously climbed nine towering platforms from Jun Lin Banquet.

And from this moment on, Jun Lin Banquet, a new chapter will begin.

Mo Qingcheng, Mu Rou, Yanaro, Ye Clan, Ou Clan, Bai Clan, Divine Weapon Pavilion, and Star River Association, all focused their gazes on the two figures above the ninth platform. Will Qin Wentian be eliminated in the first round?

The corner of Jiang Xiu's mouth curled amusedly. He had just crossed swords with Qin Wentian. Even though Qin Wentian had a certain amount of strength, he would definitely not have the chance to fight him in the case of an actual battle.

"Qin Wentian, on a stage like this under the supervision of thousands of people, so-called geniuses like you will be eliminated in the first round of the first set of battles. Isn't that so funny? "Jiang Xiu said calmly.

Qin Wentian did not reply, and instead raised his head to stare at the sky above.

The sun rose from the east, gradually getting higher and higher, until everyone could feel its brilliant radiance.

The young man who had come from Sky Harmony City had experienced many hardships and a near-death situation, finally coming to participate in Jun Lin Banquet in the Chu Country. Today, was the day that the Chu State would feel its radiance.

Today, in front of the face of the entire Chu Country, he would obtain a name for himself.

Mustang once told him that his time to shine was the following year.

However, a year is too long. He wants to fight for the present.

Today, he was standing here, for no other reason than trying to become the number one person.

Right now, the young man's heart seemed to be blazing like the sun!
