As soon as the Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast finished her speech, countless powerful auras flew out from the mountains.

“The Monarch Fish is here at last.”

“I wonder how many geniuses will be taking part in it, and what the fortunate encounters are this time.”

The dojo became crowded with a few hundred disciples within a short time, who were busy discussing with one another.

Over the past few months, many geniuses of the Dragon Emperor Clan had fallen, but at the same time, many disciples had risen.

Qin Nan brought his fists together facing the Six-Spirited Dragon Vein, before proceeding to the dojo with a kick, which attracted the attention of the crowd.

“Greetings, Senior Brother!”

Many disciples immediately brought their fists together.

Qin Nan waved and quickly scanned the place before his eyes flickered.

The inner disciples whom he was familiar with—including Ao Dongfang, Su Qingqing, An Lin, Mu Mu, Hua Jiwudao, etc.—had improved significantly. Ao Dongfang had reached the eighth-layer Martial Progenitor Realm, and apart from Mu Mu who was at the sixth-layer Martial Progenitor Realm, the rest were all seventh-layer Martial Progenitors.

Furthermore, he could sense a powerful, mysterious force inside Ao Dongfang's body, implying that he had found some extraordinary fortunate encounters lately.

“Qin Nan!” Ao Dongfang’s gaze became excited with an overflowing battle intent as he saw Qin Nan, “You’re finally back. I’m looking forward to fighting you once we’ve boarded the Monarch Fish!”

He had treated Qin Nan as his target and rival for the past few months, thus motivating him to work harder. Now that he had altered his destiny, granting him a bloodline equivalent to a fifth-grade Tian ranked Martial Spirit and the sixty-third rank on the Monarch Ranking, he could not wait to have a battle with Qin Nan.

Su Qingqing, An Lin, and Hua Jiwudao’s eyes glistened too.

Although they were not as powerful as Ao Dongfang, they were also ranked in the top hundred on the Monarch Ranking. They felt like they had a chance to win against Qin Nan if he did not rely on the Beast-Hitting Stick.

Only Mu Mu was wearing a cold expression as if nothing really mattered for her.

Qin Nan displayed a calm smile without commenting.

“What do you mean by that? Are you looking down on me?” Ao Dongfang’s expression became dark as he growled, “I’m now ranked sixty-third on the Monarch Ranking. I don’t think I’ll lose against you!”

A cold aura burst out from his body as he charged in Qin Nan’s direction.

The eyes of the crowd flickered upon seeing this, but none of them said anything.

They also agreed that Ao Dongfang had a chance against Qin Nan. Even if he lost, the difference between their strength would not be too huge.

“No, I didn’t look down on you, let’s have a battle if we have the chance.” Qin Nan smilingly said.

Does Ao Dongfang really think his true strength was only ranked fifty-second on the Monarch Ranking?

The reason was that he had spent the past two months cultivating in seclusion without fighting anyone.

However, he would not mind have a battle with Ao Dongfang if he insisted.

“Humph!”

Ao Dongfang harrumphed as he decided to show Qin Nan his strength once they boarded the Monarch Fish, telling him that he was no longer the same.

“Everyone, silence.”

At that instant, the Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast arrived.

Every disciple immediately shut their mouth and looked at her.

Qin Nan’s eyes glistened. It had been two months since their last encounter, and he somehow felt that the Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast was different than before.

“Most of you wouldn’t know that the Monarch Fish is separated into four domains, which are respectively the Green Tail, the Blue Middle, the Purple Upper, and the Golden Head.” The Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast said with a stern expression, “You can’t just choose the domain you want.”

The crowd was startled.

It was their first time boarding the Monarch Fish, thus none of them knew about the four domains.

“Everyone has only one chance. Once you fail, you can’t climb back up, so keep in mind that those ranked between two thousandth and one thousandth, you’re to choose the Green Tail. Those ranked between a thousandth and one hundredth, the Blue Middle. Those ranked in the top one hundred, the Purple Upper. Don’t overestimate your strength, understood?”

The Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast stared at the crowd.

“Understood!”

The geniuses responded.

One of the disciples could not help but ask, “Senior Monarch Beast, what cultivation is needed to board the Golden Head?”

“Don’t even think about the Golden Head. You must be at least ranked in the top thirty in order to have a chance there.” The Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast shook her head, “However, the geniuses who are ranked in the top thirty of our clan will not be taking part this time.”

This was the reason why she had not mentioned the Golden Head.

The reason being that most cultivators who were ranked over thirty on the Monarch Ranking were less interested in the Monarch Fish. Most of them would be training themselves deep inside the forbidden areas of the Middle Continent or in the half-God region.

For example, the first-ranked Shi Qingfan had spent most of his time in the half-God region. He even went to check out the geniuses of the God Ranking when the Monarch Horoscope Contest of the God Ranking had begun.

The crowd was shocked hearing this, and immediately got rid of their thoughts.

They never thought the requirement to board the Golden Head would be this high.

“The Golden Head, huh?”

Qin Nan’s eyes squinted.

The blood in his body began to boil.

He was not too excited when he had first received the news from the Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast, but now, her words had wholly intrigued him.

How pleasant would it be to stand at the top of the Monarch Fish, glancing down at the world while training himself and competing against the others!

“Qin Nan, were you at the half-God region for the past two months? Be careful, many disciples of the other factions will be boarding the Monarch Fish too. They will surely target you when they see you.” The Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast warned. She feared that Qin Nan would do as he wished.

“Don’t worry.”

Qin Nan did not mention about the South-Heaven Godly Curtain, but nodded straight away.

The Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast was left speechless seeing his reaction. Who knew how much of her words he actually treated seriously.

However, at that instant…

Space and the entire Dragon Emperor Clan began to tremble.

An overwhelming aura was approaching from a distance away.

Qin Nan and the rest of the crowd immediately raised their heads.

They could see a glow with mixed colors of green, blue, purple, and gold approaching them rapidly from far away in the sky. The glow gradually enlarged in the crowd’s vision, allowing them to see its true appearance. Even Qin Nan’s eyes were filled with astonishment.

BANG BANG BANG…

The Heavens and Earth buzzed.

A giant fish that was a thousand zhang long and three hundred zhang tall descended like a giant mountain. Its colorful glow caused everything nearby to appear dull.

Although it was not as imperious as the Dragon Emperor when he had arrived in person before, its magnificent aura completely suppressed all living things in the world.

Many among the crowd went blank.

If someone were to glance down from above, they would see that the back of the fish was already crowded with people, with a rough estimation of a few thousand.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Scales of different colors were fired from the Monarch Fish’s green tail, blue middle-body, purple upper body, and golden head, which poured down like a huge rain.

It was impossible to board the Monarch Fish by flying up straight away. They could only use the scales as stepping stones.

The color of the scales would lead them to the respective domains.

“Everyone, wake up!”

The Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast uttered a blasting roar, like the chime of a bell, waking up the crowd from their astonishment.
