Chapter 172 Ch 172: Grandmaster Wang's Arrival
Days started to pass slowly and one day Tong Nian came to him and said that his master has arrived with the other fourteen candidates.
Ye Xiao did not waste his time and went to meet his master.
In these few days, he has been cultivating the second stage of the Myriad Fire Image Technique. He was now able to form seven fire clones.
He also wanted to cut open the small ice cube to see what was hidden inside it that had attracted the attention of the Divine Soul Emperor Dragon but the Divine Soul Emperor Dragon stopped him from doing so.
It said that only when he can break through to the Martial Emperor Realm should he cut open the small ice cube.
Ye Xiao did not reject the kind intention of the Divine Soul Emperor Dragon as he knew that it would try to not harm in any way.
Since it had said him not to cut open the small ice cube with his current strength, there should be a reason behind it.
In these few days not only he cultivated the Myriad Fire Image Technique, but he also tried to control the Heavenly Lightning.
Although he had already refined the Heavenly Lightning and make it his own, he was still far away from truly controlling it.
"Master!" Ye Xiao arrived in front of his master, Grandmaster Wang, and greeted him.
Grandmaster Wang nodded his head but when he saw Ye Xiao, he was shocked.
"Third Stage of the Martial King Realm! Not only have you broken through to the Martial King Realm, but you have also actually advanced to the Third Stage of the Martial King Realm in just two months of time!"
When Grandmaster Wang said this, all fourteen candidates were shocked.
Two months ago when Ye Xiao arrived at the Heaven Sword Sect to obtain the remaining spot to enter the Secret Realm, he was only at the Peak Ninth Stage of the Origin Core Realm, but now, after just two months, he actually advanced by leaps and bound, and become a Third Stage Martial King Realm martial artist.
It was unbelievable.
How can a cultivator cultivate this fast?
"This... Master, actually, I have a lucky encounter, and only because of that my cultivation increased by this much!" Ye Xiao scratched his hair and said with a smile that looked more like an embarrassed smile.
"Oh, Ok!" Grandmaster Wang only nodded his head and did not say anything. He already knew that Ye Xiao was not that simple.
All of them moved toward the Imperial Family.
The time to enter the Secret Realm had already arrived.
There were only three days left and they have to gather at the Imperial Family.
"Ye Xiao, you are really something else. How can you be so lucky? You actually not only broke through to the Martial King Realm but you have also advanced to the Third Stage of it."
While they were moving toward the Imperial Family, Wen Xiang approached him and said while putting one of his hands on Ye Xiao's right shoulder.
Ye Xiao looked at Wen Xiang and smiled at him. He said with a voice that looked like he was deep in thought, "Yes, I really was lucky!"
When Ye Xiao thought about the terrifying Heavenly Tribulation and the merging process with the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon, he could not help but tremble in fear.
Wen Xiang felt Ye Xiao's body trembling and asked, "What happened?"
"Eh! Nothing." Ye Xiao hurriedly calmed himself down and shook his head toward Wen Xiang.
Soon all of them arrived at the Imperial Family.
At the gate of the Imperial Family, imperial guards stopped them asked them to introduce themselves.
When Grandmaster Wang told the guards that they had came from the third grade known as Azure Dragon Country to enter the Secret Realm, the guards showed them a look of disdain.
Although the guards looked at Grandmaster Wang, Old man Tong, Ye Xiao, Lin Hao, and others with disdain, but they did not dare to stop them from entering the Imperial Palace.
After all, it was the order of the emperor of the Grand Xia Empire to let everyone gather at the Imperial Family before departing for the Secret Realm.
How can they dare to defy the order of the Emperor of the Grand Xia Empire?
Not long after, all of them entered the Imperial Family and arrived at the location which was a large hall where people from many other countries were already gathered.
All of them turned to look at Ye Xiao's group of eighteen.
When some of the young men's eyes fell down on Lin Ling and Tong Nian, their eyes immediately lit up.
"They must be from a third-grade country!"
"Yes, look there are only sixteen young men and two old men. Fifteen of them should be the candidates to enter!"
"Why are you all becoming so curious? They are just a bunch of trash from a third-grade country. Let's not talk about them!"
"Heh! Even though they all are a bunch of trash, those two girls are not bad!"
? "Yes, those two girls are real beauties! What a waste of them to be born in a third-grade country!"
The moment they entered the large hall, they heard the disdainful mocking voices of many young geniuses.
Not only those young geniuses, many middle-aged men and the old men who accompanied them here were also looking at Ye Xiao's group with disdain.
Ye Xiao and others felt bad after hearing this but Grandmaster Wang calmed them down and said, "Don't become anxious or feel that you are inferior to them just because of their mocking. If you really feel inferior to them then increase your strength and help your country to rise in rank!"
"Grandmaster Wang is right. They are mocking us because our country is only a third-grade country. Only when we become stronger can our country rise in rank, and only then these people will shut their mouths!"
Lin Hao said this while looking at everyone. He was also clenching his fists as the mocking from other geniuses also made him feel sad.
