Gu Jingman’s appearance surprised Mo Wen. She was actually also joining the Heaven List Tournament!

However, Mo Wen also saw that the current Gu Jingman was very powerful. The faint aura from her body made even him have palpitations. However, when he observed her carefully, he could not detect anything out of the ordinary.

Could it be related to the Blood God’s heritage?

Mo Wen knew that when they were in Fu Sang Country, Gu Jingman had received the Blood Kindred’s highest inheritance. It had strengthened her body until it was comparable to the level of the Golden Elixir Realm. At that time, in terms of the power of their flesh, she was much stronger than he was.

Only two or three months had passed since then. Could it be that she had used the Blood God’s heritage’s power and was already at a level that could make him palpitate in fear?

The feeling that Gu Jingman gave him was far more mysterious than that of the low profile monk. Mo Wen could at least sense something from the monk when he saw him. However, Mo Wen could not tell anything about Gu Jingman from her demeanor.

“Are you preparing to join the Heaven List Tournament too?” Mo Wen asked.

Gu Jingman rolled her eyes at Mo Wen. What did he mean by “preparing to join”? Could it be that there was a rule which forbade her from joining the Heaven List Tournament?

“Don’t underestimate me. I have come with the goal of seeking the top spot on the Heaven List. You’d better not encounter me in the tournament! If you do, I will beat the hell out of you.” Gu Jingman softly snorted.

Mo Wen was a b*st*rd who did not care about her at all. He did not even know her current abilities.

“Hehe!” Mo Wen giggled. Of course, he would not say more when he did not know how powerful Gu Jingman was. If he acted unconvinced now, it would be embarrassing if he actually got beaten later.

“Sister Yinru is staying at the Baixiu Inn, together with the members from the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. They are all preparing for the Martial Arts Circle Convention. As a sect leader, are you going to manage your own sect?”

The members of the Dafang Sect and the Ming Palace had gathered together earlier. Gu Jingman had also followed them to Dragon City. Everyone was busy. Only the sect leader Mo Wen was nowhere to be seen all day long.

“After the Heaven List Tournament is over, I will go and look for them. By the way, is anyone from the Ming Palace participating in the Three List Tournament?” People from various worlds could compete in the Three List Tournament. The members of the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension naturally could participate.

“There is someone called Yin Banshuang that has registered for the Earth List. The others don’t seem to have the ability to do so.” Gu Jingman had not encountered any especially outstanding young geniuses in the Ming Palace. After all, the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension was just a very small Inner world.

After this, Mo Wen continued the registration assessments until he received the qualification to participate in the Heaven List Tournament.

With his ability, he could easily pass the stage where they tested his power.

...

At a high point in the fighting arena, two silhouettes stood and gazed at the lively scene below.

There were none other than Guo Mengqiao and Chou Tong.

“Xiao Hanyan still has no intention of participating in the Heaven List Tournament?” Guo Mengqiao asked with an indifferent look as he gazed at the crowd below.

“He has not appeared up until now, so he must not be joining. Who knows where that lunatic has gone off to cultivate! With his character, he might be disdainful of the Heaven List.” Chou Tong shook his head. This person, Xiao Hanyan, only wanted to cultivate. In order to train himself, he would usually venture into dangerous places. Every day, he would be pacing on the verge of death. He was already at a point where he was considered a lunatic.

“Such a pity. If he took part, the number one spot on the Heaven List would have most likely not gone to anyone else.” Guo Mengqiao sighed softly.

“That’s true. Xiao Hanyan is the only Ten stars Executor in the Martial Arts Grandmaster Palace Hall’s history. Rumor has it that he can certainly break through the shackle of realms and become immortal.”

A fiery look flashed in Chou Tong’s eyes. He and Guo Mengqiao were nothing; Xiao Hanyan was the true number one genius of the Huatian Palace. However, not many people knew about Xiao Hanyan. This person moved about with wizardly elusiveness and cultivated like a lunatic. Almost all of his time was spent cultivating.

Rumor had it that he had already been selected as one of Hua Xia’s participants in the International Superpowers Competition. He was also not older than fifty. Compared with any old fellow that was a few hundred years old, he was exceptionally young.

“Could it be that even you are not confident in getting the top position in this round of the Heaven List Tournament?” Chou Tong said with a frown.

If Guo Mengqiao did not have the confidence to take first place, he would not have hoped for Xiao Hanyan to take part. The members of the Huatian Palace rarely participated in the Heaven List Tournament. After all, the prize for the top ten winners of the Heaven List did not attract the members of the Martial Arts Grandmaster Palace Hall.

But this time around, it was somewhat special, because there was a secret involved. Because of this, many youths from the Martial Arts Grandmaster Palace Hall had been drawn over.

Although Guo Mengqiao’s cultivation was only at the Martial Arts Grandmaster second realm, he had the ability to go against someone at the Martial Arts Grandmaster third realm. Even so, he actually did not have the confidence to claim the top spot in the Heaven List!

“Do you know why the Martial Arts Circle Convention only allows the main space sects to participate, and the Inner world’s Martial Arts Grandmasters are not allowed to register?” Guo Mengqiao looked at Chou Tong.

“Wasn’t that a ruling by the Huatian Palace? Maybe it’s because the main space ancient martial art practitioner sects lag behind the Inner world sects too much, so the Huatian Palace intends to help them out?” Chou Tong said in surprise. Could it be that there was something about this that he did not know? In the outside world, it had always been rumored that the Huatian Palace wanted to lift up the main space ancient martial art practitioner sects. Hence, it only allowed main space ancient martial art practitioner sects to participate in the Martial Arts Circle Convention and receive the treasures bestowed upon the winners by the Huatian Palace.

“You are wrong. A long time ago, the Huatian Palace laid down the rules for the Martial Arts Circle Convention, but you might find that their reason for doing so is unbelievable.”

Guo Mengqiao looked into the distance and said, “Back then, the Huatian Palace ruled that only the main space ancient martial art practitioner sects could participate in the Martial Arts Circle Convention. That was because the Inner world ancient martial art practitioner sects were too weak and were far inferior to the main space ancient martial art practitioner sects. However, the Inner world ancient martial art practitioner sects were numerous. In order to eliminate a cumbersome screening process, the Huatian Palace ruled that the Inner world ancient martial art practitioner sects could not take part in the Martial Arts Circle Convention. It was because, at that time, it was almost impossible for the Inner world ancient martial art practitioner sects to be ranked among the top ten.”

“What? How is that possible?”

Chou Tong suddenly widened his eyes. Guo Mengqiao’s words were almost unbelievable. Everyone knew that the main space ancient martial art practitioner sects were not worth mentioning when compared to the Inner world ancient martial art practitioner sects. Since when had it been the other way around?

“This was something that happened a long time ago, so there are many things that you don’t understand. Later on, the Martial Arts Circle Convention went through some changes, becoming what it is today.”

Guo Mengqiao shook his head. Chou Tong was a genius who was from one of the Inner worlds. He would naturally find it hard to believe such a thing.

“Even if what you say is true, why is it that the current main space ancient martial art practitioners have fallen to such a state? Could it be that a large number of main space ancient martial art practitioners migrated to the Inner worlds?” Chou Tong knew that there was a period of time where a large number of main space ancient martial art practitioner sects migrated to the Inner worlds and that this was agreed to by the Huatian Palace. The migration that time indeed caused the main space ancient martial art practitioners sects to dwindle in numbers and deteriorate up until the present day.

“Why would the true strong practitioners of the main space want to migrate to the Inner worlds? Chou Tong, there are some things that you might not know. The main space is the true source of this world. It is the most important place among all the realms. Even the Spirit Realm that is behind the Huatian Palace went all out to obtain the right to rule this world. Have you seen the members of the Devil Kingdom, Demon Realm, and Underworld invade the Inner worlds?”

“The preciousness of the main space cannot be compared regardless of how many Inner worlds there are. However, there are too few people who can truly benefit from how precious the main space is.” Guo Mengqiao sighed. Right now, the main space was on its last legs, however, these people still did stop competing for the main space. If this situation were to continue, it would be a catastrophe.

“Although I know some of the things you have mentioned, I don’t know much. In the Martial Arts Circle Convention this time around, there have been rumors that some secret mysterious strong practitioners have participated. Could it be related to what you mentioned? Is this the reason why you are not confident?”

Chou Tong shook his head. In terms of knowledge and exposure, he was far inferior to Guo Mengqiao. Guo Mengqiao’s grandfather was a Primordial Soul Veteran of the Senate. Chou Tong was worlds apart from a person of that level.

“I believe you know about the hidden martial arts strains that legends have always mentioned? This time, those hidden martial arts strains have probably all appeared.”

“Hidden martial arts strains! I have always believed that the main space ancient martial art practitioners referred to the Inner world ancient martial art practitioners as the hidden martial arts strains. Could it be that there is still some secret about them?” Chou Tong said in surprise. Didn’t hidden martial arts strains refer to how the main space ancient martial art practitioners described the Inner world ancient martial art practitioners? Many main space ancient martial art practitioner sects also believed it to be so.

“How could Inner world ancient martial art practitioners be compared to those from the hidden martial arts strains? The difference between them is too great,” Guo Mengqiao said, shaking his head. “Hidden martial arts strains have always existed in the main space. You might not believe it, but their power is far superior to that of Inner world ancient martial art practitioners. However, it has been centuries since the members of the hidden martial arts strains have appeared. Even if one of them appeared in the outside world, it’s likely that very few people would know about them.”

“How powerful are they?” Chou Tong asked, somewhat astonished. Since Guo Mengqiao was saying this, it must be true.

“The finest among them could break through and become immortal with their own ability and without any external aid. Their ancient martial art practitioners who had become immortal could defeat some Primordial Soul Realm veterans of the Senate. There are even some more powerful ancient martial art practitioners among them.”

Guo Mengqiao looked intently at Chou Tong and said, “These hidden martial arts strains have the most ancient heritages. Their histories are at least more than a thousand years old. There are even ancient sects that have been around for ten thousand years. They have mastered the essence of the martial arts teachings of Hua Xia. They are the true soul of Hua Xia’s martial arts teachings. Indeed, it should be said that they are the true Hua Xia ancient martial art practitioners.”

Chou Tong took a cold breath. He had never imagined that Hua Xia still had such secrets.

“This time around, the hidden martial arts strains have appeared. Is it all because of the mysterious place in Dragon City?” Chou Tong caught the crux of the problem. The past few Martial Arts Circle Conventions were far less lively than this one. Even members of the Martial Arts Grandmaster Palace Hall like him and Guo Mengqiao had participated. Their goal was also the mysterious land.

“The Huatian Palace is prepared to open the Goddess’s World in order to draw out the hidden martial arts strains. It was because last time, Hua Xia lost pathetically in the International Superpowers Competition. The Huatian Palace clearly wishes to change the status quo.”

Guo Mengqiao took a deep breath. The Huatian Palace was in it for the glory. The hidden martial arts strains were in it for the treasure. It was as simple as that.
