When Xiao Tian emerged from his quarters, Liu Qingyun and Shu Hen were astonished. They were not surprised by Xiao Tian’s cultivation realm, as they could not see it—Xiao Tian was concealing his realm from others. Liu Qingyun was shocked by Xiao Tian’s appearance; he no longer looked like a ten-year-old child but more like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old teenager. Perhaps this was a result of his rapid inner strength improvement affecting his appearance.

"Youth Master, you’re finally out. It’s time for us to continue our journey," Liu Qingyun was the first to greet Xiao Tian.

Xiao Tian was somewhat surprised by the change in Liu Qingyun and Shu Hen’s attitude. Initially, they had always addressed him by his name directly, but now they consistently called him Youth Master.

Xiao Tian nodded. "Sorry for making you wait."

"It’s no problem." Liu Qingyun gave a slight smile. He wanted to ask about Xiao Tian’s current realm, but he held back.

    "Shirong, stop!" The voice echoed among the members of the Yuntai Kingdom's entourage. Although the others were too intimidated to confront Shirong directly, this young man dared to address him by name. Shirong's face twisted in anger, his eyes blazing as he turned to face the speaker."Brother Shunyuan, are you going to let them go just like that? After the injured Renyi so badly?" he asked, his voice almost a growl."Shirong, aren’t you ashamed of what happened? Look how easily Renyi was defeated—doesn't that sight open your eyes?" Shunyuan said calmly. Then he stepped forward and clasped his hands respectfully toward Xiao Tian and the others. "Friends from the Supreme Sword Sect, please forgive my younger brother and the other members of my kingdom for their rudeness."Shirong’s anger flared even more at Shunyuan’s actions, but he didn’t dare challenge the prince’s authority, who was also the strongest member of the young generation within their group. Realizing his powerlessness,

    Xiao Tian closed his eyes. “Damn, I need to control my eyes. If this keeps up, I won’t be able to focus on training.”Their journey on the ship proceeded without significant obstacles, although they had to stop a few times when the ship was intercepted by pirates. However, this ship was filled with martial arts experts, including one of the Elders from the Misty Cloud Sect, who wasn’t just an Earth Realm warrior but a Sky Realm warrior at the fourth rank. The Elder easily dispatched the pirates who tried to block their way.After months of travel, they finally arrived at the Empire’s center. Daniel, Liu Qingyun, and Shu Hen couldn’t hide their amazement at the grand sight of the Imperial capital. However, to Xiao Tian, the sight was nothing special. He had often been brought to the Empire by his father, so this view was familiar to him.The Ming Dynasty was much stronger than the She Dynasty, and its Imperial center was more grand and awe-inspiring.As they disembarked from the ship,

    Seeing Daniel manage to hold his own against his three opponents, the young dark-skinned man felt he couldn't just stand by and watch. "Attack together! He's only a first rank. No matter how strong his fighting skills are, he will tire out over time."The dark-skinned youth pulled out a pair of iron gloves, his weapon of choice, different from other warriors who typically used swords.*Tssut—*The three other warriors quickly joined their comrades who were already attacking. Daniel now faced attacks from two swords coming from the front, while two more came at him from the right and left.With incredible speed, Daniel wielded his sword, his movements graceful as he parried the barrage of incoming sword strikes. However, the sheer number of opponents eventually gave him trouble. From behind, the dark-skinned youth attacked with lightning speed.*BANG!*A hard punch landed on Daniel's back, causing him to wince slightly in pain."You cowardly scoundrel! Since you all intend to kill me,

    After ensuring Daniel’s safe return, Xiao Tian immediately set off again. In his hand was a large amount of gold coins he had obtained from the young black-skinned man earlier. "With this much money," he thought, "it shouldn't be difficult for me to get a quality sword."This time, his destination was the Phoenix Dragon Association, located in the heart of the Empire. Known as the place that provided all the needs of warriors, Xiao Tian was confident he could find a sword that suited his needs there. With a determined stride, he began searching for the way to the association.Meanwhile, Ling Faizhe had arrived at his residence. As soon as he passed through the entrance, an overwhelming sense of nausea struck him. This was the first time he had witnessed such a brutal and merciless murder scene. In front of Xiao Tian and Daniel, Ling Faizhe tried hard to maintain his composure, attempting not to show that he was someone who had just entered the world of martial arts. "Damn," he muttere

    The elders immediately handed over the data of the students participating in the competition after She Xongjan received the complete list of all participants. In a loud voice, She Xongjan invited the participants to enter the Martial Arts Arena."Everyone, gather first," She Xongjan ordered his voice echoing powerfully and reaching everyone in the spectator stands.Xiao Tian and Daniel immediately entered the Martial Arts Arena to gather, with Daniel continuously observing his potential opponents. Only Xiao Tian remained calm and unaffected by the surrounding crowd.When all the participants were in the arena, the elders from Yunlang Valley, Qiantu Sect, and Black Lotus Sect started to appear restless. "Where is Hujian? The event has started, but he hasn't shown up yet," they murmured anxiously. They seemed panicked because the most talented student from their sect hadn't arrived.Meanwhile, Shunyuan kept a sharp eye on Xiao Tian and Daniel. Internally, he cursed, “Damn, those two bra

    She Xongjan announced the next match. “Next up, number 14,” he said with a thunderous voice. Xiao Tian sat calmly, his eyes observing the ongoing battles in front of him. However, his expression reflected boredom. Match after match passed without anything catching his interest.Finally, She Xongjan's voice resounded in the air again. “Number 13, please enter the Martial Arts Arena!”Whoosh—Whoosh—Two figures immediately darted into the centre of the arena. She Xongjan continued, “Ling Faizhe from the Ling Kingdom versus Shaiming from the Endless Valley.”Without hesitation, Shaiming drew his weapon—a silver spear that gleamed sharply under the sun.Buzz—Instantly, Shaiming’s domain became apparent. He, like Ling Faizhe, was a third-ranked Earth King warrior. Ling Faizhe merely snorted coldly as he sensed his opponent's aura. “If you think you’re capable, come forward! There’s no need to show off your strength in front of me,” he said in a mocking tone.Shaming smirked disdainfully,

    Peizhi raised his sword and shouted, "DANCE OF A HUNDRED SWORDS!"A powerful surge of sword energy erupted like a whirlpool, flowing into Peizhi's body. Xiao Tian immediately recognized this technique; it was one that Xing Han had displayed when facing him in the Supreme Sword Sect.Xiao Tian had to admit that Peizhi's technique this time was far stronger than the one Xing Han had shown. However, thanks to his previous experience, Xiao Tian had thoroughly studied this technique and knew its weaknesses.Peizhi glared sharply at Xiao Tian. "Tian, why haven't you drawn your sword yet? Are the two swords on your back just for decoration?"Xiao Tian gave a small smile. "To face you, I don’t need a sword. My bare hands are more than enough!"Peizhi felt his blood boil, the veins on his forehead bulging with uncontrollable anger. "Arrogant! Don’t blame me if I become ruthless!" he shouted at Xiao Tian, who merely responded with a mocking grin.Peizhi didn’t wait any longer; the energy within

    Xiao Tian had proven his abilities beyond everyone’s expectations. Now, admiring gazes were directed at him, especially from the women of the Misty Cloud Sect.Shouxue, Yi Min, and Ershita'er—who usually wore expressions as cold as ice—watched Xiao Tian from a distance.Shouxue whispered to Ershita'er, "Sister, you keep staring at him. Could it be that you’re interested in him?""Sister, don't joke around. Even though he’s strong, he’s still a child, only ten years old. Besides, I’m not interested in thinking about men at my age right now. I must focus on becoming stronger so that our Sect can be more respected, not only in the She Dynasty but across the Continent!" Ershita'er said, turning her face away, no longer looking at Xiao Tian from afar.Yi Min, who stood between them, simply shook her head at Shouxue's behaviour. However, she added, "Sister Shouxue, I feel that the boy named Tian shouldn’t be underestimated. During the previous match, I didn’t see him use any combat techniqu

    Neo Fan narrowed his eyes, suspicion and anger flashing within them. "Who are you, daring to interfere in my affairs?" he shouted sharply. Unlike the situation outside the Starry Sky Legacy, in this world, facial concealment techniques still work perfectly. Neo Fan could not recognize Xiao Tian, whose portrait had already been spread across the entire Starry Sky Realm, seen by tens of millions of people. Xiao Tian stepped lightly forward, a faint smile appearing at the corner of his lips. "Let me introduce myself. Coincidentally, the Death Gate Pavilion hates me very much, because I killed several members of the Han Clan." As he spoke, Xiao Tian's face slowly shifted, as if shedding his disguise. In an instant, his handsome and dignified face emerged under the dim light of this world. The moment he saw that face, Neo Fan's body tensed. His face turned pale, fear flooding his heart uncontrollably. He had heard of this youth’s cruelty. A butcher who had made the Han Clan bow in d

    Xiao Tian merely observed from a distance. His gaze was calm, but his mind was already swiftly weighing the best course of action to take next. Neo Fan wasted no time. With quick movements, he pulled out a whip made of pure lightning, emitting blue sparks that vibrated the surrounding air. Without any warning, the whip roared forward as Neo Fan charged at his three opponents. Seeing the incoming attack like a raging storm, the three young men dared not be careless. They immediately drew their own weapons, preparing the best defenses they could muster. One of them, who wielded a bow, immediately created distance. He leaped back leaped high speed, knowing that his role in this battle was to attack from range. While his two companions advanced to block Neo Fan, the archer drew three arrows simultaneously from his back. With lightning-fast movements, he pulled back his bow. BUZZ!!! Three arrows were released at once. The air vibrated violently as the arrows shot forward, producing a

    This time, Xiao Fa no longer charged directly toward the colossal gate. He chose a different path, moving to the side of the gate, trying to find a gap he could exploit. In front of millions of spectators, Xiao Fa formed complex hand seals, channeling his power to tear through space itself. His goal was simple yet bold—to enter the world of the Starry Sky Legacy directly without passing through the main gate. However, just as the space began to split thinly, a giant golden palm appeared from nowhere. Without any warning, the palm shot forth like lightning. BAANG!!! Xiao Fa's body was struck brutally. He was not only knocked away but hurled millions of meters into the distance. The mountains in the path of his body collapsed like sand, the ground shattered, and the air vibrated violently due to the terrifying impact. The explosion of energy from the collision shook the entire place. Blood spilled from Xiao Fa’s mouth once again, his face covered in dust, and his luxurious robes

    Xiao Fa looked at Xiao Rui with a serious expression. His voice was heavy yet filled with conviction as he spoke, ensuring every word reached the young man's ears. "Young master, you must enter now. This place can only be accessed by the younger generation under the age of forty. If anyone older than that attempts to enter, their body will be immediately rejected by the Starry Sky Legacy. I hope you can rise to the very top." After saying this, Xiao Fa continued through voice transmission, making sure no one else, including Xiao Zimo and Xiao Yue who stood nearby, could hear. "Young master, if you can leave your name on that golden pillar, and your position is higher than the ancient figures engraved there, you will receive the highest treatment within the Clan. Moreover, if you can place your name higher than His Majesty the Supreme God, Xiao Jian, the Clan’s most precious resources will belong to you." Hearing this, the light in Xiao Rui’s eyes began to change. A burning fire of

    Seeing the colossal gate standing tall and the golden pillars piercing through the clouds, Xiao Fa instinctively furrowed his brows. His gaze sharpened as if trying to comprehend something that defied ordinary logic. It was not just Xiao Fa. Several ancient monsters present at the scene—including the Owner of the Thousand Star Heart Villa, the Leader of the Black Sun Holy House, and other top figures—also showed similar reactions. Their gazes hardened, and their forehead ads creased in heavy silence. An aura of doubt and tension spread among these great leaders, making the atmosphere around the battlefield even heavier, even though not a single word had been spoken yet. Noticing the change in expressions, Xiao Rui, who was still young and had not fully grasped the depth of the world's secrets, finally spoke. "Senior, what is happening?" he asked, his tone slightly anxious, realizing that something grand yet hidden lay behind this scene. Xiao Fa glanced briefly at him, then repli

    Xiao Rui furrowed his brows. His eyes narrowed, becoming far sharper. "A Xiao Clan bloodline, yet not from the branch clan. Then where did he come from? How dare he use the Xiao Clan name so casually." "Young Master, that's correct. However, most of us suspected he might be from the Core Clan. I will now present his portrait. Perhaps Young Master recognizes him?" The Elder from the Xiao Clan branch stepped forward. In his hand, he held an ancient scroll protected by a layer of energy. With a smooth yet practiced motion, he unfurled the scroll, revealing the portrait of someone familiar to the readers but completely unknown to the figures standing before it. The figure in the painting was Xiao Tian. Sharp eyes, a firm jawline, and an aura of calm yet threatening strength radiated from the depiction. As the image became clear, Xiao Rui, Xiao Zimo, and Xiao Yue all frowned simultaneously. Even Xiao Fa, who rarely showed any change in expression, revealed a faint hint of surprise in

    Seeing the entire crowd kneeling as if the world itself had bowed to them, the two young men from the Core Xiao Clan merely gave cold smiles. No pride flashed in their eyes, as if the reverence of tens of millions meant nothing more than a passing breeze. Yet one of them finally spoke, his voice neutral but laden with pressure. "Rise." Just one word. A short sentence without emotional inflection, yet the sound echoed sharply in every ear that heard it. Without a single moment of hesitation, everyone who was kneeling immediately stood up. "Thank you, My Lord." The young man gave a slight nod, as if long accustomed to such worship. His gaze then shifted to the middle-aged man standing calmly behind them. "Elder Xiao Fa, can you discern what lies behind that light?" The man stepped forward half a pace. His face showed no trace of nervousness, even though he was now answering a direct question from one of the Core Clan's younger generation. Xiao Fa, an Elder who had surpassed the

    "Old beast, battles do not always rely on brute strength. They require intelligence as well. This opportunity is very useful for sharpening my mind—to see whether I can survive when everyone is hunting me down. If I get caught and die, it would simply mean that my brain failed to function." Leihuo Dashi laughed loudly within his mind. "Hahaha, good. If a cultivator fears death, they might as well stay at home and live as an ordinary person. If you want to become stronger, you must dare to challenge death!" As everyone stared at the pillar of light still piercing the sky, the silence was suddenly shattered by a strange tremor from above. The sky, which had merely served as a backdrop for the light, suddenly roared violently. Clouds split apart, and the wind howled as if welcoming the arrival of something extraordinary. Then, without warning, a dimensional rift was forcibly torn open in the sky. The crack seemed like a doorway to another world. From beyond the rift, a colossal form

    "Niu Gan, Jilang, Bairu. Even though I am leaving, we will definitely meet again," said Xiao Tian, his voice calm but carrying a deep sense of certainty. The three figures before him remained silent for a moment. Their eyes held sadness, yet none of them pleaded for Xiao Tian to stay. They knew that the path Brother Tian had chosen was not an ordinary one. "Alright, Brother, please be careful. I hope you gain a fortune in the Guijian Realm. Even if members of the Xiao Clan's core come, you must not lose to them," Niu Gan finally said. His voice was hoarse and strained, yet filled with spirit. Xiao Tian responded with a faint smile—one that only appeared at times like this—not merely a smile, but a firmness forged through thousands of battles. "Of course." Without any further words, he walked toward Jue Giang, who was already moving toward the northern side of the yard where an ancient formation was hidden. Lush trees hung their long leaves down to the ground, covering a stone cir
