A white jade chariot, towering several dozen feet high, resembled a small mountain, hovering in the void.
Within the chariot, drapes fluttered.
Two rows of women in white robes led the way, twelve in total, standing side by side in the air. Each of them was a stunning beauty, catching everyone's attention.
“Such a grand spectacle!”
Someone scoffed.
But more people were filled with excitement.
“Is the Jade Balance Saint Son about to make his appearance?”
Someone speculated.
In the next moment, a man emerged. Hands behind his back, his presence was like jade, step by step he descended from the chariot. Each step he took spanned a hundred feet, his toes lightly tapping the void, with lotus flowers of the Dao blooming at each step.
Just with this move alone, people's brows furrowed.
It seemed.
The Jade Balance Saint Son was truly no weakling.
Someone like him hadn't even appeared on the Genius Ranking—this seemed somewhat unreasonable.
“This battle is likely to be a hard-fought one.”
A genius said with a serious tone.
At this moment, neither side had made a move, but the aura radiating from the Jade Balance Saint Son was clearly at the peak of the Rebirth stage, on the same level as Ye Chen.
Both had powerful factions backing them.
Their cultivation resources wouldn't be lacking, and battles between such individuals would take days, with no clear victor emerging quickly.
“Heh!”
A young man with a bold and rebellious expression, his body surrounded by powerful energy, blood surging within him, shouted, “The Jade Balance Saint Son will certainly win today!”
“Although Ye Chen has the backing of an imperial clan, his personal strength is nothing remarkable.”
This person was also a genius but had yet to make it onto the Genius Ranking.
Naturally, he looked down on those on the ranking. Today, the Jade Balance Saint Son represented all of them, facing off against the second-ranked person on the Genius Ranking, so they would definitely stand with the Jade Balance Saint Son.
“How can someone who hasn't even made it onto the Genius Ranking dare to compete with Brother Ye?”
Someone nearby scoffed.
This person was Xue You, ranked ninety-seventh on the Genius Ranking. Though he was at the bottom, he still wouldn't allow others to insult the ranking. Usually, this wouldn't matter since everyone was of the same generation, and without a fight, no one could tell who was stronger. But today, it was different.
Among the countless geniuses of the human race, I rank ninety-seventh. What about you?
No ranking?
Then sorry, we're not on the same level.
...
“The Genius Ranking has appeared, and the Jade Balance Saint Son is the first to step forward to challenge the authority of the Heavenly Mechanism Tower. Clearly, he's quite formidable—such power among his peers truly makes him stand out!”
A Saint Lord spoke quietly.
“The Jade Balance Sacred Land has stood strong for millions of years. The Saint Sons they cultivate are certainly not ordinary.”
Someone nodded nearby.
“Perhaps the Heavenly Mechanism Tower's master overlooked the Jade Balance Saint Son,” someone hesitated.
“That can't be, right? I've heard of the Heavenly Mechanism Tower, and it's said that Ren Qingtu and Yang Qiu became Saints with the guidance of the Tower Master. How could such a person overlook anyone?”
Someone voiced a different opinion.
“There's no need to argue, both geniuses are about to make their move!”
A Saint Lord spoke.
As his voice fell, countless people turned toward the arena in perfect synchrony.
The Jade Balance Saint Son, with elegance and grace, held an open fan in his hand, his hair fluttering as if he were an immortal descended from the heavens. He landed lightly on the white jade platform, slightly cupping his hands and saying:
“Brother Ye, long time no see!”
“Let's fight!”
Ye Chen opened his eyes, his pupils flickering with countless symbols. He slowly stood up, his surging blood energy sweeping across the area like a kingly sun, engulfing the heavens and the earth.
“Clang!”
A sharp ring resounded.
A blood-colored spear materialized in his hand, turning into a flashing arc like lightning, with a sharp aura that sliced through the void.
Ye Chen didn't waste any words. He was ready to strike immediately.
“Hmm?”
The Jade Balance Saint Son's brow furrowed slightly, feeling some displeasure.
As the Jade Balance Saint Son, he had taken the initiative to greet Ye Chen. For Ye Chen to ignore this and directly call for battle… it felt like he didn't regard him highly.
“Then let's fight!”
The Jade Balance Saint Son lightly pointed with his fan in the void, and it transformed into a glowing sword, crystal-clear and translucent. The moment it appeared, it emitted an intense cold aura.
At the sight of this sword, many people's expressions turned serious.
Clearly.
The Jade Balance Saint Son had come prepared!
The weapon in his hand was also of the Heavenly Transformation grade!
“Clang!”
Holding the sword, the Jade Balance Saint Son unleashed divine radiance, slashing with it. The sword cleaved through the void, and several sword lights intertwined, striking toward Ye Chen.
He was the first to strike!
The sword light was like a rainbow, continuous and endless, resembling a river of stars suspended in the sky. This kind of attack made even those at the Heavenly Transformation stage frown.
The Jade Balance Saint Son's strength was beyond their expectations!
“Is that all?”
Unexpectedly.
Ye Chen spoke up, letting out a long howl. The mountains and rivers seemed to tremble. If it weren't for a formation rising on the jade platform, many people would have been crushed by the force.
“Boom!”
The earth shook.
Ye Chen stamped his foot, and the blood-colored spear in his hand erupted with a storm of blood light, resembling a sea of corpses, spreading in all directions. One spear strike shattered the heavens and earth!
This one strike covered the world, casting a red glow over everything.
Many people, even through the formation, felt as if they couldn't breathe.
It was terrifying!
This didn't seem like the kind of power that someone of the younger generation should be able to unleash!
“Boom!”
The spear collided with the sword light, and everything was obliterated, with chaotic true essence filling the air, blocking all vision, making it impossible to see the scene within the arena.
Bang!
Another loud crash.
Many people's hearts trembled as they saw a blood-red flower blooming in the center of the arena.
Blood?
Whose blood?
Was it Ye Chen's or the Jade Balance Saint Son's?
Had they already determined the victor so quickly?
“Boom!”
A figure rushed out, half of his body covered in blood, holding a long sword in hand. His body had numerous cracks, suffering unimaginable injuries.
“It's... the Jade Balance Saint Son!”
Someone gasped.
