Everyone exclaid in astonishnt, "This is another Chu Zhongtian!"
Lin Xuan sneered upon hearing this. Another Chu Zhongtian? That’s not what I want. What I want is to surpass him.
Lin Xuan said coldly, "Who is Chu Zhongtian to ? I can surpass him."
The crowd was stunned. Surpassing Chu Zhongtian? That was far too arrogant! Chu Zhongtian had set the strongest record in 800 years and was the number one genius of the Great Xia Country, an existence admired by all. Could anyone really surpass him?
"He’s dreaming! He can’t possibly succeed!" Chu Yue roared.
"Chu Zhongtian is insurmountable!" The Star Pavilion Master clenched his fists tightly.
The Wangyue Pavilion Master’s heart was in her throat. She was simply far too nervous.
The Dean of the Heavenly Dao Institute was stupefied and filled with disbelief. If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed Lin Xuan possessed such talent. Is he about to create a new miracle? The Dean’s eyes glead as he stared at Lin Xuan, his heart filled with anticipation.
"Impossible?" Lin Xuan sneered. "Then open your eyes and watch how I surpass him."
With a furious roar, the Dragon Power within his body completely boiled over, and the Dragon Scales covering his body shone with a terrifying light. He stepped forward once more. With a single step, he ascended to the 87th level.
A thunderous boom resounded.
On the 87th level, a Dragon Shadow materialized, and a towering pressure swept forth, as if trying to force Lin Xuan back. An earth-shattering dragon’s roar echoed through the heavens, like a Supre Divine Beast awakening.
Lin Xuan also let out a dragon’s roar. His Dragon Blood seethed and his Dragon Scales glowed as he seemingly transford into a true dragon in human form. It was a duel of dragons!
Finally, Lin Xuan set foot on the 87th level!
The entire audience was in shock. Heavens, what were they seeing? Lin Xuan had climbed to the 87th level! He had broken Chu Zhongtian’s record! It was too heaven-defying, too unbelievable!
"Incredible! The strongest record in 800 years was just broken like that?"
"Damn, I’ve got goosebumps all over!"
The top-tier geniuses were also dumbfounded. In their eyes, Chu Zhongtian had always been a god-like existence they could only look up to. Chu Zhongtian had the potential to beco a Martial Emperor in the future, while they could at most beco Martial Kings. The gap between them was simply too vast. They had never even dared to challenge Chu Zhongtian, so when Lin Xuan did, they thought he was arrogantly overestimating himself and was dood to fail.
But now? Lin Xuan had succeeded! He had actually broken Chu Zhongtian’s record!
The people of the Heavenly Dao Institute were stunned. The Pavilion Masters of the four pavilions were left dumbfounded. The Dean of the Heavenly Dao Institute shot to his feet, trembling with excitent. He had never expected Lin Xuan’s strength to be so formidable that he could actually surpass Chu Zhongtian!
This child’s talent is limitless! His future achievents might surpass His Majesty, and he could even beco a Saint! The thought of the Heavenly Dao Institute producing a Saint in the future made the Dean so excited he could almost jump for joy. A Saint! A being of legend! If Lin Xuan truly becos a Saint, wouldn’t our Heavenly Dao Institute beco a Holy Land? This is truly a teoric rise!
The people from Wangyue Pavilion erupted into a frenzy, cheering with wild excitent.
"Lin Xuan is god-like!"
"Lin Xuan is invincible!"
"Invincible!"
"Number one!"
In contrast, the people from Star Pavilion were utterly stupefied, their faces turning incredibly unsightly. Chu Zhongtian had always been their pride and their hope. With him, their Star Pavilion was bound to prosper and rise above all else. But now, Chu Zhongtian had been trampled underfoot by Lin Xuan! And along with him, their entire Star Pavilion had been crushed. Their pride was shattered and their hope was extinguished. Lin Xuan’s single step had broken their spirits. The Elder Disciples fell into despair.
Chu Yue’s vision went black, and she nearly fainted. How could this be? Her brother’s record was actually broken! And by Lin Xuan of all people! In her heart, her brother was a god. And Lin Xuan? In her eyes, he was just a tiny ant, not even worth ntioning. She had never taken him seriously. But now, this tiny ant had suddenly transford into a Divine Dragon, towering high above. She couldn’t accept it. She wouldn’t accept it. Chu Yue was a shattered ss, standing there motionless as if she had lost her mind.
The Star Pavilion Master coughed up a mouthful of old blood.
「On the Dragon Ladder」
Lin Xuan stood on the 87th level, looking down on everything. At this mont, he was brimming with ambition. He was like a supre sovereign, gazing down upon the world. So what if he’s Chu Zhongtian? I still trampled him underfoot! So what if his record was the strongest in 800 years? I still broke it! I have surpassed Chu Zhongtian!
Seeing the crowd’s shocked and dazed expressions, Lin Xuan’s lips curled into a smile. He turned and continued walking forward. Surpassing Chu Zhongtian was not his ultimate goal. His ambitions were higher and aid farther.
He’s still going? The crowd was astonished. This was just too crazy. Hadn’t he reached his limit yet? Wasn’t he afraid of getting injured? They were shocked, wondering where Lin Xuan’s limit truly lay.
The Wangyue Pavilion Master and the Dean of the Heavenly Dao Institute both had worried expressions. Lin Xuan, you mustn’t overexert yourself! Don’t get hurt!
Finally, Lin Xuan arrived at the 91st level. He did not continue, as moving further would require a much deeper level of cultivation. His final result was the 91st level.
The entire venue was in shock. The mbers of the imperial clan were dumbfounded. The 91st level! That was simply heaven-defying. One had to rember that Chu Zhongtian’s 86 levels were already considered an unattainable height. Yet Lin Xuan had completely surpassed him, climbing to the 91st level! This record was far more impressive than Chu Zhongtian’s.
Chu Zhongtian’s record was the strongest in 800 years. Lin Xuan’s record was the strongest in 5,000 years! In five millennia of history, Lin Xuan’s record was the highest!
"Quickly! Report the news to the Emperor!"
「Imperial Palace」
A dignified, middle-aged man sat ditating on the dragon throne. Beside him lay several ancient scrolls, their pages curled from being read so often. These were the Supre Ultimate Skills of the imperial clan. This man was, of course, the Emperor of the Great Xia Country.
"Report! Sothing major has happened!" An urgent voice called from outside the palace.
The Emperor opened his eyes, his gaze like a bolt of lightning that tore through the void. The space around him rippled, emitting a thunderous boom. "What is it?" his deep and resonant voice rang out, carrying an authority that could not be questioned.
The one making the report was an Imperial Clan Elder. For him to be so anxious, could sothing have gone wrong in the Hidden Dragon battle? Thinking of this, the Emperor’s brow furrowed slightly. He waved his hand, and the palace doors swung open.
The Imperial Clan Elder rushed in, clasped his fist, and said, "Your Majesty, sothing major has occurred in the Hidden Dragon battle! Lin Xuan has broken Chu Zhongtian’s record on the Dragon Ladder, reaching the 91st level! It is the strongest record in 5,000 years!"
"What?" The Emperor’s pupils contracted sharply as he shot to his feet. "Is this true?"
"Absolutely true!"
The Emperor stood stunned. After a long mont, he burst into hearty laughter. "Good! Good! Good! The 91st level! The makings of a Saint! Great Xia shall rise! Attendants, bring brush and ink."
Eunuchs and palace maids brought forth brush, ink, paper, and an inkstone. The Emperor wrote with a magnificent flourish, drafting the four large characters for "Supre and Peerless."
"Bestow this upon Lin Xuan. We have great faith in him."
Back near Purple Mountain, the great families were still discussing fervently. Lin Xuan had not only broken Chu Zhongtian’s record but had also set a brand new one. They estimated that this record would likely remain unbroken for a long ti to co. The crowd was deeply shaken.
Finally, the elimination round concluded. The Imperial Clan Elder announced the results.
"First on the Dragon Ladder, Lin Xuan!"
At that mont, Lin Xuan beca a god in everyone’s heart—an invincible god.
Chu Yue was filled with despair. The people from Star Pavilion were filled with despair.
However, the Grand Elder said, "So what if Lin Xuan is first? Chu Yue is not lacking either. She sounded 12 Dragon Sounds, placing her above the entire first echelon of geniuses. That is also a heaven-defying achievent. It is not yet certain who will erge the final victor!"
