"Wu Chensheng."
Soon, the referee came back to his senses from his shock and announced the final result loudly. At the same time, he was full of expectations for Wu Chen. With the cultivation level of the ninth level of the Spirit Wheel Realm, defeating a strong man in the Spirit Sea Realm, such talent is extremely rare.
The election of all nations will be held in a year. With Wu Chen's talent, he might be able to achieve excellent results in the election. In that case, it would be a supreme honor for him personally and for their entire Great Qi Kingdom.
"Little guy, do a good job."
After the battle between Wu Chen and Li Shiji, several more matches were held, but the matches between them could never compare to the duel between Wu Chen and Li Shiji.
After a whole day of intense competition, the second round of selection has come to an end. Ten people, including Wu Chen and Li Shiji, have successfully advanced to the top 100 young people of the Great Qi Kingdom. They will compete in the final tomorrow with the qualifiers from other venues to see who is the true king of the Great Qi Kingdom.
There is no doubt that the news about today's game spread quickly and caused heated discussions. People were talking about it on the streets, in restaurants and inns.
"The preliminaries for the Hidden Dragon Ranking Competition have completely ended. The competition for the top 100 is extremely fierce."
"That's right. For the strong ones in the Spiritual Sea Realm, it's easier to say. They can definitely be in the top 100. As for those below the Spiritual Sea Realm, the competition is so fierce that it is unimaginable."
"That's no wonder. There are so many Spiritual Sea Realm experts this year that there are already very few spots left for others. There are only a few spots left. If we divide them evenly, there will only be one person in each venue. How can the competition not be fierce?"
"In this Hidden Dragon Ranking Competition, the top 100 are still mainly from the three powerful counties and Xiyang City. These four places account for half of the quota, and the other counties basically only have one or two people."
"Yes, the three most powerful counties are not just boasting. They are so powerful that other counties cannot match them."
"In addition to the three powerful counties and Xiyang City, many powerful people have emerged in other counties, such as Lin Hu from Tianzhu County and Hu Yang from Malan County. These people are extremely dazzling. In comparison, Nan County seems to be inferior. If I am not mistaken, there should be only one person named Huang Pujun from Nan County who entered the top 100 this time."
"You are wrong. In addition to Huang Pujun, there is another person in Nanjun who has also entered the top 100."
"There is another person. Who is it? Could it be Murong Ke who is ranked second? No, that's not right. I saw this person today and he didn't advance. Since it's not Murong Ke who is ranked second, could it be Yan Song who is ranked third?"
"No, you guessed wrong. It's neither Murong Ke who ranked second, nor Yan Song who ranked third."
"If it's neither of these two, then who could it be? In Nanjun, besides Huang Pujun, is there anyone stronger than these two?"
"Yes, there is a person whose strength is second only to Huang Pu Jun among all the people in Nanjun. Or it can be said that his strength has surpassed Huang Pu Jun."
"Who is it that is stronger than Huang Pu Jun? How can he be so strong as to surpass Huang Pu Jun? Don't keep me in suspense any longer. Tell me now."
"Okay, this person is Wu Chen. Wu Chen, have you heard of this person?"
"Wu Chen, what a familiar name. I seem to have heard it somewhere before. Oh, isn't he the guy from Yunfeng City?"
"Yes, it's Wu Chen from Yunfeng City."
"That person is indeed amazing. He was born in a garbage city like Yunfeng City, but he has reached the ninth level of the Spirit Wheel Realm. His talent is indeed very strong. No, what did you say just now? You said Wu Chen entered the top 100?"
"Yes, he did make it into the top 100."
"Entering the top 100, this is too scary. He comes from that garbage city of Yunfeng City."
"What's more terrifying is that you may not know yet. Not only did he make it into the top 100, he also defeated a strong man in the Spiritual Sea Realm."
"He defeated a Spiritual Sea Realm expert. No, it is absolutely impossible. His cultivation is only at the ninth level of the Spirit Wheel Realm. How could he possibly defeat a Spiritual Sea Realm expert?"
"I know you don't believe it, but this is the truth. Today, at Venue No. 1, I saw with my own eyes that Wu Chen defeated the Spiritual Sea Realm expert Li Shiji, becoming the first person to defeat a Spiritual Sea Realm expert beyond his level."
"To defeat a Spiritual Sea Realm expert beyond his level, is this still a human being?"
… xdw8
Similar conversations were almost everywhere, and Wu Chen's name, along with these conversations, quickly spread throughout Xiyang City. There was no doubt that he was the biggest dark horse in this year's Hidden Dragon List competition.
In the evening, another incident occurred that was even more sensational. Someone broke through to the fourth level of the Spiritual Sea Realm.
"Did you know that Situ Jiannan has broken through to the fourth level of the Spiritual Sea Realm?"
"Situ Jiannan broke through to the fourth level of the Spiritual Sea Realm. When did this happen? How come I don't know about it?"
"It happened not long ago, after the second round of preliminaries ended today. As soon as he returned, he reportedly made a breakthrough."
"It's too absurd to expect a breakthrough as soon as I return."
"Yes, it is too mysterious, but no matter what, Situ Jiannan has broken through the fourth level of the Spiritual Sea Realm. This has become a fact."
"Originally, Situ Jiannan's strength was already very strong, and he had the potential to become the number one person in the Great Qi Kingdom. Now that he has broken through the fourth level of the Spiritual Sea Realm, he is undoubtedly the number one person in the Great Qi Kingdom."
"This year's Hidden Dragon Ranking Competition is undoubtedly the most prosperous one in the past hundred years of our Great Qi State. Not only did the third-level Spiritual Sea Realm powerhouses appear, but now even the fourth-level Spiritual Sea Realm powerhouses have appeared. It is really a blessing."
…
The news that Situ Jiannan had broken through to the fourth level of the Spiritual Sea Realm spread throughout Xiyang City as quickly as the wind. Soon, the entire Xiyang City knew about it.
When Wu Chen knew about this, he was also shocked. For a Spirit Sea Realm expert, every time he advances to a higher level, his strength will be greatly improved. Take a Spirit Sea Realm expert of the second level for example, he can defeat a Spirit Sea Realm expert of the first level without any difficulty. And for a Spirit Sea Realm expert of the first level to defeat a Spirit Sea Realm expert of the second level, the difficulty is several times greater than for a Spirit Wheel Realm expert of the first level to defeat a Spirit Wheel Realm expert of the second level, to the point that it is almost impossible.
Wu Chen roughly estimated that with his current strength, he would have a very good chance of dealing with the first and second levels of the Spiritual Sea Realm. However, once they reached the third level of the Spiritual Sea Realm, it would not be an easy task to deal with them, let alone the fourth level of the Spiritual Sea Realm.
Unless his cultivation can be further improved to reach the Spiritual Sea Realm, there will be a glimmer of hope.
