The Divine Dao Alchemy Emperor
Chapter 437
Breaking through to the Blooming Flower Level meant that one would surpass one's mortal limits.
This was the dream of every martial artist, but how many would actually achieve the feat of breaking through the Flower Level in this world?
At night, Gu Feng Hua, Chi Hua Lan, Lin Xiang Qin and the others all came. They all managed to advance to the actual tournament, which was certainly something to be happy about. They naturally had a nice celebration in his honor, and when they came to the topic of Ling Han and Hu Niu's daytime performance, they all inhaled sharply.
Too powerful.
"If I fight with Hu Niu in the future, I definitely can't let him bite me!" Gu Feng Hua stated very depressedly.
"En, en, en!" They all agreed. The persistence and violence of the little girl was embedded deep in their hearts.
"Niu won't bite you all, stink!" Hu Niu ate vigorously, but the fact that he could still speak clearly could not help but impress them.
"Grandmaster Ling, when did you become the Array Master?" Lin Xiang Qin looked at Ling Han seductively, which made Liu Yu Tong and Li Si Chan feel extremely unrestrained for him.
"That's right, that's right. Are you planning to let people live? You are already an alchemist, you have a very high talent in martial arts, and now you are also an Array Master." Gu Feng Hua shared the same feeling and sighed. "Compared to you, I almost lost my name as the biggest pervert."
“Good, I have absolutely no interest in snatching this name from you, so please rest assured,” Ling Han laughed.
They were all feasting on the ingredients grown in the Black Tower, devouring food greedily. Even Chi Hua Lan and Lin Xiang Qin, the two beautiful women who were praised as gods, were no exception — they fought over food so incredibly, making everyone dumbfounded.
After a good night's rest, the knockout fight finally began.
They all drew, and followed the principle that no one already in the Roll should meet each other, forming a hundred fighting pairs. And these hundred pairs were further divided into ten groups, with each battle having a time limit of one hour. If the victor was still in doubt at the end of that hour, there would be additional battles being conducted after the battles for all ten batches were completed.
It's a KO fight, so of course there's no such thing as a tie.
Ling Han, Li Si Chan, and Guang Yuan all sat in the audience seats, which they had paid for with the entrance fee of a single Origin Crystal. It's really very expensive. Even an elite cultivator of the Spiritual Ocean Tier would have to spend an entire month to successfully refine it.
Even so, there were no empty seats in this Great Arena. Just from the entrance fee alone, the Spirit Treasures Pavilion would be able to produce around 200,000 Origin Crystals. This money-making ability was really enough to make people exclaim in shock.
Who allowed these magical Rollers to be held by them? And it was also the neutrality and strong background of the Spirit Treasure Pavilion that ensured that the outcome of the tournament would be universally acknowledged by all martial artists. Otherwise, no matter which sect governed it, it would be inevitable that there would be doubts as to whether the tournament was more partial towards their own disciples.
Liu Yu Tong, Can Ye and Zhu Wu Jiu all pulled things together and managed to avoid the ones in the Prodigy Roll. They also managed to avoid some of the strong characters that were recognized among the beginners. Hu Niu, on the other hand, drew Ao Xing Lai as his opponent.
He was originally seventy-eight in the Prodigy Roll, and now also managed to break through the Spiritual Pedestal Tier. His battle prowess was at least five stars.
Normally, if a novice was paired with an elite cultivator in the Roll, they would definitely sigh at their own misfortune. The latter had managed to rank in the Roll three years ago, and now that three years had passed, his skills would definitely be vastly improved. But now, everyone was filled with sympathy for Ao Xing Lai.
Looks like this character from the last Roll of the tournament will continue to wear the label "Last Roll". Who doesn't know about Hu Niu's incongruity now? One punch from him had twenty Spiritual Ocean Tier Stars, the claws had the strength of two Stars of a Tier Pedestal Spirit, and one bite was powerful enough to reach the twenty Stars level of a Flower Blossom Tier.
He was an absolute little monster!
Ao Xing Lai was indeed very strong, and was also the strongest of the Seven Sons of the AO Clan, but now, no one was very optimistic about him.
His fight and Hu Niu were in the seventh group and would only start in the afternoon, but Ao Xing Lai's expression did not look very pleasant. It was not that there was no previous instance when an elite cultivator in the Roll was defeated by a novice, but it was a very, very rare case. If this kind of thing happened to her, it would be very embarrassing.
"Please choose your weapon" the host announced.
Can Ye was in the first group; his opponent was a skilled spear user. The latter was also at the ninth layer of the Spiritual Ocean Tier and his tested battle prowess was fifteen Stars, which was on the same level as Can Ye. But the test for battle prowess was only a display of the strongest destructive power, and not actual battle prowess. The true abilities of a martial artist still needed to be demonstrated through actual combat.
Both of them were directly involved in a fierce battle. Can Ye was truly merciless. Seven flashes of Saber Qi danced forward, one slash after slash, and repeatedly attacked forcefully. In one go, he fired eighty-one slashes, and his opponent did not even manage to properly lift his spear to fend off when the area between his thumb and forefinger was torn. He was left with no choice to admit defeat.

Ling Han nodded. Can Ye had also found her own path of martial arts and had her own powerful style, which was to advance boldly, and would rather be destroyed than veer off her path. Either his sword will slash his enemies, or he will destroy himself; there is no third possibility.
It could be called the Dominating Saber.
An hour later, the battle for the first group was over, and there were no unexpected results. All the elite cultivators in the Scrolls emerged victorious.
The second round began, and there were many famous challengers in this group.
Lu Yang, who was ninth in the Prodigy Rollers, and also the one with the highest ranking in Rollers at the moment. The top eight were naturally disqualified due to their age. Qu Xiu Zhu, whose battle prowess reached as high as twenty Star Spiritual Ocean Tier. Hua Ying Han, Yu Kun Lun's younger sister's student, a new entry to the Spiritual Pedestal Tier.
Ling Han mainly focused on Lu Yang. He was an excellent disciple of the Beast Emperor Sect and had a pet, the Frost Clouded Leopard. Due to the special nature of this Sect, he was allowed to fight with his pet beasts. He was similar to the Thousand Corpse Sect — without pets, his battle prowess would at least drop drastically by around ninety percent.
However, Lu Yang's opponent was really too weak. He was only at the ninth layer of the Spiritual Ocean Tier, and since Lu Yang had managed to win with his usual attacks, he had not used his pet at all.
"The sixth layer of the Spiritual Pedestal Rankings," Ling Han said slowly. This was probably the highest level of cultivation in this Prodigy Tournament.
Qu Xiu Zhu and Hua Ying Han managed to advance as well, and were sorted as new members in the Prodigy Roll.
Fighting continued. Finally, an unexpected result appeared. Lo Da, ranked forty-two in the Prodigy Roll, had completely lost his mysterious character. That person only revealed the battle prowess of the Spiritual Pedestal Level Star during the exam, yet easily defeated Lo Da.

"He's hiding his ability."
"Indeed, that fellow was at the Spiritual Pedestal Tier in the first place, and as long as he displayed the battle prowess of a single Star Battle, it would be enough for him to reach the actual tournament."
"He hit very quietly earlier, so it was definitely not his true ability either."
"This could be another dark horse that could get into the top ten."
The name of this person was Yang Jun Hao, and there was very little information about him. It is only known that he was twenty-three years old; the age test also confirmed it. But when Ling Han's eyes swept over him, he was astonished because this person was surprisingly at the ninth layer of the Spiritual Pedestal Level.
In the northern region, with such a young age standing at such a high cultivation level, he could be considered a genius amongst geniuses.
The third and fourth waves finished, and on the fifth wave, Zhu Wu Jiu appeared. After an hour-long battle, he finally defeated his opponent and became another member of the Prodigy Roll. This meant that he had a nearly hundred percent chance of breaking through the Flower Blossom Tier in the future, which made him extremely happy. If he ever returned to Rain County, it would be the strongest battle prowess level undeniably.
In the sixth round, Ling Han saw Yue Kai Yu, his cousin. After this fellow obtained the Spirit Return Pill, he strengthened his foundation and had broken through to the Spiritual Pedestal Level, possessing incredible battle prowess. He easily defeated an elite cultivator of the Prodigy Roll.
This was the fourth case of a novice who defeated a senior member of the Prodigy Roll in battle.
