"Isn't it just because of your higher level and older age? If you want to fight, I can accompany you!"
Lei Wenyuan stared at Di Yuanzhao coldly. If Di Yuanzhao dared to attack the sword demon, he would never stand idly by. Although there are regulations in the competition for the Heavenly General Ranking, no private confrontation is allowed during the competition, but there is no guarantee that Di Yuanzhao will not be able to bear the excitement of failure and will ignore the rules and directly attack the sword demon.
However, what worries Lei Wenyuan is whether other geniuses will intervene. Di Yuanzhao wanted to kill the sword demon, he could stop it, and he had enough confidence to stop Di Yuanzhao. If Zong Renfu and other peak Heavenly General Realm warriors take action at the same time, then he will not be sure to protect the sword demon.
Fortunately, Huangfu Tianzun's voice sounded in time, causing the noisy giant square to immediately become quiet. The results of the first round of fighting were clearly shown on the standings, so there was no need for him to say anything more. Only the five hundred thousand lives at the front can proceed to the second round of battle.
From first to tenth they are: Jian Mo, Gu Hong, Zong Renfu, Di Yuanzhao, Lei Wenyuan, Su Jiyu, Luo Tiancheng, Hua Yunan, Ning Quexing, and Bai Zhenjun. Only the top ten can get corresponding benefits in the second round of fighting. The higher the ranking, the greater the benefits.
If you don't become one of the top ten warriors, it's useless no matter how unwilling you are. The ranking is fixed and cannot be changed. Fortunately, the top ten in the first round of battle have no impact on the final ranking. What they have to do now is to pass the second round of fighting, otherwise everything they say will be empty.
"The non-Gu Imperial Palace disciples who have been eliminated can leave the Ancient Imperial Palace now. Those who have not been eliminated only need to wait three days before they can engage in the second round of battle!"
Huangfu Tianzun has issued an order to expel guests, and those eliminated non-Gu Imperial Palace disciples are not qualified to stay. The competition for the Heavenly Generals Ranking is so cruel, and those who are eliminated are losers. They may become strong in the future, but now they can only leave sadly.
"I took note of what you said!"
The sword demon did not hide behind Lei Wenyuan, but faced Di Yuanzhao directly. One thing he is sure of is that now that he is the champion of the first round of fighting, the strong men of the Ancient Emperor Palace will never allow others to hurt him. Rules are only one, and face is the second. If the champion of the first round of the battle is killed, then where will the face of the Ancient Imperial Palace remain
Di Yuanzhao was just a genius disciple of Jiuyan Prison. Even if he had a hundred courages, he would not dare to go against the sword demon at this time. However, the sword demon's fearlessness made Di Yuanzhao very unhappy. But Di Yuanzhao really couldn't do anything against the sword demon, and he had nowhere to vent his anger.
"Let's go and ignore him!"
The sword demon smiled at Lei Wenyuan and left the giant square without even looking at Di Yuanzhao. He hasn't seen Lian'er for a month, and of course he wants to see how Lian'er is doing. We will talk about Di Yuanzhao later, because now he is indeed no match for Di Yuanzhao in a real fight.
Confidence is not arrogance, nor is it arrogance. Sword Demon will not think that only he who is in the early stage of Heavenly General Realm can defeat Di Yuanzhao who is at the peak of Heavenly General Realm. Fortunately, the first round of fighting and a month of continuous killings made his swordsmanship further improved and his strength became stronger than before.
"You are so cool and unrestrained, which makes Di Yuanzhao very angry. If you encounter Di Yuanzhao in the third round of the battle, you must be careful, it is best to admit defeat directly!"
After Lei Wenyuan caught up, a trace of worry flashed across his face. The sword demon got the first place in the first round of fighting, but the third round of fighting would not limit the realm. In a duel between the Sword Demon at the early stage of the Heavenly General Realm and Di Yuanzhao at the peak of the Heavenly General Realm, Lei Wenyuan knew that the Sword Demon would definitely lose.
Fortunately, every warrior who participated in the battle for the Heavenly Generals List received a token. As long as they surrendered, they could save their lives. Lei Wenyuan was afraid that the sword demon would show off and refuse to admit defeat until death. In that case, the sword demon would be in danger. The sword demon steals the show in the first round of battle, which has both advantages and disadvantages.
Because Sword Demon is the champion in the first round of fighting, then he will get the greatest benefit in the second round of fighting. However, because he is famous enough and dominates everyone, he will inevitably arouse the murderous intention of others. He has great talent and great potential. Some people want to make friends with him, while others want to take his life.
"We'll talk about the future matters later. Now let's relax for three days and prepare for the second round of battle!"
The sword demon was carefree and didn't look worried at all. Lei Wenyuan gave a bitter smile, feeling a bit like the emperor was not in a hurry and the eunuch was. The person involved is not worried, so why should he be worried
"Big brother, big brother!"
From a distance, Lian'er saw the sword demon and jumped up and down to the sword demon. The sword demon immediately picked up Lian'er, then walked to the table and sat down. After a month of continuous killing, it was impossible not to feel tired. The dream was too real. Otherwise, there is no need for Huangfu Tianzun to give them three days to adjust the account status.
"You don't know, at the beginning, when I told him that you could get the first place, he didn't believe it at all. Later, when you really got the first place, his eyes almost popped out, hehe... "
Lian'er pointed at Zhong Xingba, with dissatisfaction on her face, making Zhong Xingba cry and laugh again and again. For a month, he took care of Lian'er, delivered delicious food to Lian'er every day, and also chatted with Lian'er. Unexpectedly, as soon as the sword demon came back, Lian'er said something wrong with him.
Zhong Xingba finally understood Lei Wenyuan's feelings. No wonder Lei Wenyuan kept Lian'er at arm's length. Arguing with a little girl, not to mention lowering one's worth, has no clue yet. Don't argue, Lian'er looked so proud that he was furious.
"It's really useless to hurt you!"
Hearing Zhong Xingba's complaint, Jian Mo and Lei Wenyuan laughed. The two of them had been fighting hard in the Ancient Dream World for a month, but Zhong Xingba had been recuperating for a month. No matter how you look at it, the treatment is completely different. Now that Lian'er was causing trouble for Zhong Xingba, they instantly felt extremely comfortable.
"Xingba, are you there?"
There was a voice in the distance, and Zhong Xingba hurriedly walked out. His cousin's voice would definitely not be hidden from him. However, he didn't know why his cousin came because his cousin was already a Heavenly Lord and he didn't have much interaction with him.
"Cousin, I wonder what brought you here?"
Zhong Xingyue is also a genius, but when he was in the Heavenly General Realm, there was no competition for the Heavenly General Ranking, otherwise his ranking would definitely not be low. It was indeed a pity that he missed the battle for the Heavenly Generals Ranking. Because of this, he watched the first round of battle curiously.
Of course Zhong Xingyue knew who Gu Hong was. He thought that Gu Hong would definitely be the champion in the first round of fighting. Unexpectedly, a sword demon appeared halfway and won the first place in one fell swoop. The elders of the Zhong family have already noticed that Sword Demon is such a genius that it is difficult not to pay attention to him.
"I don't like to beat around the bush. I came here this time because I was entrusted by the family elders to meet the Sword Demon!"
Zhong Xingyue's straight to the point made Zhong Xingba react. In order for the sword demon to go to the ancient source world to practice, Zhong Xingba personally asked his great-grandfather for help. There is no airtight wall in the world. There are other elders of the Zhong family who know about the Sword Demon. Originally they had objections, but after the results of the first round of fighting came out, they all kept their mouths shut.
A genius who can defeat Gu Hong, the emperor's own son, in the first round of battle is definitely worthy of their friendship. There is no shortage of geniuses in the Zhong family, and there are many talented children of the younger generation. However, even if Zhong Xingyue participated in the first round of the battle, there was no way he could defeat Gu Hong, let alone surpass the sword demon who defeated Gu Hong.
Nowadays, there are many elders of the Ancient Emperor Palace who pay attention to the sword demon, and there are also many elders who want to accept the sword demon as their disciples. The Zhong family helped Sword Demon once because of Zhong Xingba. If he takes the initiative to befriend Sword Demon now, even if Sword Demon chooses his master, the Zhong family will definitely give priority to him.
"I understand, then let me take you there!"
There is no harm to the sword demon anyway, so Zhong Xingba certainly has no reason to refuse. When Lei Wenyuan refused to become a disciple of the Ancient Imperial Palace, Zhong Xingba felt very sorry. If Sword Demon is willing to become a disciple of the Ancient Emperor's Palace, maybe he can persuade Lei Wenyuan again, and Lei Wenyuan may agree to become a disciple of the Ancient Emperor's Palace.
"Wen Yuan, Sword Demon, let me introduce to you, he is my cousin, Zhong Xingyue!"
Zhong Xingyue and Zhong Xingba are similar in appearance, but Zhong Xingba looks more heroic. Zhong Xingba first introduced Zhong Xingyue to Lei Wenyuan and Jian Mo, and then introduced Lei Wenyuan, Jian Mo and Lian'er to Zhong Xingyue. The only thing Zhong Xingyue was interested in was the sword demon who defeated Gu Hong in the first round of battle.
Obviously, Zhong Xingyue is not a person who is good at communication, or he is a straightforward person. Even when talking to the sword demon, Zhong Xingyue did not mince words and directly stated his purpose. Sword Demon has shown enough talent and potential that it is completely understandable that Elder Zhong wants to accept him as his apprentice.
"I appreciate the kindness of your Zhong family, but I'm afraid I can't agree to it. To be honest with you, I have enemies, and they're not just an imperial power, so I don't want to bring any trouble to your Zhong family!"
No matter what, Zhong Xingba helped Sword Demon, and when Sword Demon participated in the first round of battle, Zhong Xingba also helped take care of Lian'er. Therefore, the sword demon was very frank and directly told his situation. Zhong Xingba, Zhong Xingyue and Lei Wenyuan were all shocked. He had a grudge against more than one emperor-level force. How could the Sword Demon still survive to this day
"Could it be said that both Taiyin Palace and Life-Taking Building have a grudge against you?"
The Sword Demon dared to participate in the battle for the Heavenly General Ranking in the Ancient Emperor's Palace. The imperial power that had a grudge against him would not be the Ancient Emperor's Palace. Apart from the Ancient Emperor's Palace, the three major imperial powers in the Chaos Ancient Domain are the Taiyin Palace and the Life-Destroying Tower. If this is the case, the Zhong family still dares to contain the Sword Demon, because the Ancient Emperor Palace, Taiyin Palace, and Life-Sustaining Tower already have enmity.
"No, Taiyin Palace and Life-Destroying Tower have nothing to do with me. In fact, I come from other territories and am not a warrior from the Ancient Chaos Territory!"
