"He just comprehended second level Void Interpretation Concept?" Sword 13 and Saber 5 were greatly shocked when they found out from Feng Wu Dao that Duan Ling Tian had just comprehended second level Intermediate Wind Concept.
When they saw Duan Ling Tian was first to come out of the Illusory Crypt, they thought that Duan Ling Tian's strength could be considered to be at the top amongst the young geniuses of the various Dynasties that were participating in the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties this time.
But never had they imagined that Duan Ling Tian had actually just comprehended second level Void Interpretation Stage Concept!
Moreover, Sword 13 found out from Su Li that Duan Ling Tian seemed to only be a second level Void Interpretation Stage martial artist.
In other words, Duan Ling Tian had relied on a cultivation at the second level of the Void Interpretation Stage and first level Void Interpretation Concept to be the first to leave the Illusory Crypt.
For a time, they felt extreme shocked.
"Looks like it's just as Su Li said… Duan Ling Tian is indeed unable to be judged by convention." Sword 13 thought in his heart.
At the same time, the gaze he shot at Duan Ling Tian was dazzling and sparkling.
This was a monster, a peerless monster!
Duan Ling Tian, who'd become the center of attention, still sat there cultivating with his eyes closed, and he was completely unaware of what happened in the outside world.
Presently, besides holding the Wind Concept Fragment and comprehending Wind Concept, he was also ceaselessly cultivating the seventh form of the Nine Dragons War Sovereign Technique, the Sword Dragon Form.
Origin Energy roiled within his body like a tempestuous storm, and it charged over and over again with the intention of charging through the bottleneck of the second level of the Void Interpretation Stage.
So long as he charged through this bottleneck, his cultivation would advance a step further and smoothly break through to the third level of the Void Interpretation Stage!
Whoosh!
Suddenly, a wave of wind howls sounded out at the exit of the Illusory Crypt, and it caused everyone besides Duan Ling Tian to look over.
There was a black clothed young man soaring into the sky from them, and his face that seemed to be carved by a blade was obviously filled with disbelief.
After he came out from the Illusory Crypt, his brows raised greatly as his fierce gaze flashed out as he completely disregarded the numerous burning gazes in the sky to start sweeping past everyone in the sky above the combat arena.
In the end, his gaze locked onto Zi Shang and Duan Ling Tian.
"The first and second were both taken by them?" The black clothed young man muttered to himself. "The Darkhan Dynasty is really concealing many experts…"
Under the gazes of everyone present, the black clothed young man soared up into the sky and quickly arrived before an old man and old woman, and the two of them were beaming.
"He's a member of the Darqi Dynasty!"
"I have an impression of this person, he's the Ninth Prince of the Darqi Dynasty's Imperial Family, Qi Feng… But, even though he's famous in the Darqi Dynasty, yet he isn't as conspicuous as the others. How did he become the first in his Dynasty to come out from the Illusory Crypt?"
…
Some people the recognized the black clothed young man couldn't help but whisper in discussion.
The black clothed young man was almost middle aged, with big eyes and bushy brows, and his face that seemed to be carved from a blade gave others a deep impression and seemed to give out an unyielding feeling.
Especially his pair of fierce eyes, they gave others an extremely deep impression.
The two great Vice Fort Masters of Skywolf Fort glanced indifferently at Qi Feng before withdrawing their gazes.
Qi Feng undoubtedly possessed shocking strength and ability for being able to be the third to come out from the Illusory Crypt, but they weren't so surprised that Qi Feng possessed such achievements at his age.
There were many disciples in Skywolf Fort that possessed a cultivation at the fourth level of the Void Interpretation Stage while at Qi Feng's age.
As for Sword 13 and Sword 5, only Saber 5 took a glance at Qi Feng when Qi Feng just appeared, and then he didn't spare another glance as Qi Feng as the thoughts in his heart was about the same at Ning Can and Feng Wei.
Possessing such a cultivation at such an age was nothing surprising.
"Duan Ling Tian!" Qi Feng's gaze descended onto the violet colored figure that sat cross-legged in midair, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. "Truly interesting… He was the first to leave the Illusory Crypt at the mere age of 28, the number 1 token ought to be in his possession."
"I really anticipate battling him later on… Let me see if he relied on luck or strength to come all the way here." Qi Feng's eyes were filled with dense battle intent.
"Hmph!" Zi Shang instantly grunted coldly when he saw that Qi Feng had only taken a glance at him before completely disregarding him and looking at Duan Ling Tian.
Qi Feng glanced indifferently at Zi Shang when he heard this sound, and then he withdrew his gaze before standing in midair before the old man and old woman and closing his eyes in meditation.
Five breaths of time later.
Whoosh!
Another figure soared up from the Illusory Crypt, and it had successfully drawn the gazes of all the representatives of the various Dynasties.
This was a red clothed young man with a cold expression, and he still maintained his composure while facing the numerous burning gazes that descended onto him from midair and arrived by the side of a middle aged man and old man.
"He's a member of the Darqin Dynasty!"
"This person was called Qin Kong, the widely rumored number one expert in the younger generation of the Darqin Dynasty… Supposedly, Qin Kong stepped into the second level of the Void Interpretation Stage three or four years ago, and he's at least at the third level or even fourth level of the Void Interpretation Stage now!"
"The Darqin Dynasty is one of the Dynasties amongst our ten Dynasties that possesses the longest history, and its resources and reserves are shocking!"
…
The representatives of the various Dynasties discussed animatedly.
Qin Kong looked to be at the same age as Qi Feng, since they were both almost middle aged, they didn't draw too much attention from Sword 13, Saber 5, Ning Can, and Feng Wei.
After Qin Kong stood in midair, he glanced emotionlessly at Duan Ling Tian and Zi Shang, and he seemed to be calm.
But anyone with a discerning gaze would be able to notice the lack of calm in the depths of Qin Kong's eyes.
"Qi Feng!" Qin Kong suddenly looked towards the Darqi Dynasty's Qi Feng. "I lost to you last time, but I'll surely wash away my shame this time!"
Whoosh!
As soon as Qin Kong said this, the scene was in an uproar.
It turned out that Qin Kong had once lost to Qi Feng.
Qi Feng met Qin Kong's gaze without the slightest bit of fear, and then he laughed indifferently. "You probably don't have the chance… You were an entire five breaths of time slower than me."
The time of five breaths was neither long or short, but it could indicate that the gap between him and Qin Kong wasn't so easy to be closed.
"Pfft!" Qin Kong laughed in ridicule when he heard Qi Feng. "The ranking in the second round of the selection is only temporary and doesn't amount to much… Unless you admit that your strength is far inferior to those two from the Darkhan Dynasty."
"I heard that amongst those two from the Darkhan Dynasty, one of them was an entire 15 breaths of time earlier than you, whereas, the other one was 10 breaths of time earlier than you." Qin Kong spoke frankly.
Qi Feng was speechless and at a loss for what to say.
He was naturally unwilling to admit that he was weaker than the Darkhan Dynasty's Duan Ling Tian and Zi Shang.
Not to mention Duan Ling Tian was younger than him by more than 10 years, even Zi Shang was younger than him by six or seven years.
It wasn't impossible for him to admit that two young men that were so much younger than him were stronger than him, but the young men had to be able to defeat him in battle.
Otherwise, he wouldn't admit it!
"So in this way, you're just like me, and you're displeased with the outcome of the second round of selection." Qin Kong grunted and didn't say anything further as he stood there with a cold expression, but his gaze never left the violet clothed figure in the distance.
Even though he wasn't willing to admit that this violet clothed young man who obtained the number 1 token was stronger than him, but since the young man was capable of being the first to traverse the Illusory Crypt, there was surely something extraordinary about the young man.
"I look forward to fighting you," Qin Kong muttered to himself.
He practically had no opponent amongst the younger generation of the Darqin Dynasty, and besides for the sake of striving to obtain benefits for the Darqin Dynasty, he'd come to the Ancient Desert City's Skywolf Fort to participate in the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties even more for the sake of wanting to compete with the most outstanding young geniuses of the other nine Dynasties.
Based on the current situation, there were indeed a few people that caused the blood in his body to boil and his battle intent to soar.
Whoosh!
Not long after, the mist at the exit of the Illusory Crypt roiled once more.
The representatives of the various Dynasties that were experienced now shot their gazes at the exit as they knew someone was about to come out.
"Would it be the personal disciple of Vice Fort Master Feng, Lu Yong?"
"Lu Yong, the Crown Prince of Darming Dynasty that's around the age of 35, and his cultivation is at the third level of the Void Interpretation Stage… It ought to not be a problem for him to step into the fifth level of the Void Interpretation Stage by the age of 40 with the resources of the Skywolf Fort."
"But he's only at the third level of the Void Interpretation Stage now, and he's in a slight disadvantage in terms of age when compared with the group of young geniuses from the various Dynasties."
…
Many people discussed animatedly.
It wasn't just the representatives of the various Dynasties that were curious about who would come out next, even the Vice Fort Master of Skywolf Fort, Feng Wei, was similarly curious, and his gaze locked onto the exit as he wanted to see who came out at the first possible moment.
He naturally hoped in his heart that the person was his personal disciple, Lu Yong.
In this way, it could be considered to be bringing honor to him.
But unfortunately, in next to no time, the anticipation on his face froze because the person that soared out from the exit of the Illusory Crypt wasn't Lu Yong.
"Dammit! I've finally come out!" The robust young man with a dignified and strong appearance soared up into the sky as he cursed and shouted.
"I'm a f*cking genius! An absolute genius! How could there possibly be people that came out of the Illusory Crypt before me? Were they cheating? They were surely cheating!" After the robust young man cursed a few times, his gaze flashed past Duan Ling Tian, Zi Shang, Qi Feng, and Qin Kong as he spoke without the slightest restraint.
For a time, besides a robust old man that stood embarrassedly in midair, the representatives of the nine Dynasties were all speechless.
Where did this clown come from?
"Old fellow, I've come out!" The robust young man acted as if no one was around as he arrived before the old man, and he was still casual and unrestrained when facing a senior.
"Hmph! You're the fifth to come out, what're you being complacent about?" The robust old man reprimanded with a serious expression.
"He's a member of the Daryuan Dynasty!'
"It's said that the Daryuan Dynasty is filled with robust men, and now that I've seen it, it really deserves its reputation."
…
Many people recognized the origins of this robust old man and robust middle aged man.
"Hey! Vice Fort Master Ning, Vice Fort Master Feng, I want to report the four of them for cheating… How could they possibly be more of a genius than I, Ta Mu? This is impossible!" Under numerous dumbstruck expressions, the robust young man acted as if no one was around and spoke casually to Ning Can and Feng Wei.
