Chapter 3789 Duan Ling Tian Makes His Move

There were only about 300 participants below the age of 5,000 from 19 lord-rank forces, including the Linghu clan. Among the three age groups, this age group also had the least participants. After all, no matter how talented they were, due to their young age, it would be difficult for them to make a mark in the Flying Dragon Sect now. Moreover, it was better for them to remain in their respective forces at this age compared to joining the Flying Dragon Sect. ‘Although there are very few participants in this age group, there’s quite a number of them who aren’t from lord-rank forces.’

After the participants below the age of 5,000 gathered, Duan Ling Tian found there were not many participants from lord-rank forces. On the contrary, there were quite a number who were not from lord-rank forces. After entering the mirror abyss, he discovered there were thousands of people who were not from lord-rank forces; this meant that their number was three times higher than that of those from lord-rank forces.

For the third round of the qualifying test, only 200 people would be selected to advance. The probability of advancing was lower compared to the first and second rounds.

Before entering the abyss, those who were not from lord-rank forces had already formed an alliance. After entering the abyss, all of them stared at Duan Ling Tian and the others from lord-rank forces intently.

At this moment, someone said, “Listen up. During the first two rounds, those who aren’t from lord-rank forces were at a disadvantage due to the differences in number. However, our number far surpassed theirs in this third round. Hence, we must all unite. We have to seriously injure all of them first before we compete for the 200 places!”

With this, many people who were not from lord-rank forces voiced their agreement. There was also a small number of people who remained silent in fear of offending the lord-rank forces behind their opponents.

Apart from the members of the Linghu clan, the expressions of the members of the other lord-rank forces turned solemn upon hearing those words. After all, there was strength in number. Even if they were strong, their opponents had numbers on their sides.

At the same time, Duan Ling Tian looked around the mirror abyss calmly as he thought about what he had learned, ‘The mirror abyss is an independent realm formed by a Formation. Those on the outside can see what’s happening inside through a mirror age formed by the formation.”

Standing near Duan Ling Tian were 15 prodigies from the Linghu clan and 17 prodigies, including Hou Qing Ning and Murong Ying Yue, from the Murong clan.

When Duan Ling Tian, whom Hou Qing Ning and Murong Ying Yue stood next to, regained his senses and discovered that he and a group of people had been surrounded by those who were not from lord-rank forces.

There was a small number of those who were not from lord-rank forces standing in the distance. Although they did not want to get involved, they had no intention of helping the other party as well.

At this time, a disciple from a lord-rank force stared at the people who surrounded him and asked frostily, “Aren’t you afraid of the retaliation from our respective forces?”

Someone scoffed. “Even if you want to take revenge, you’ll have to be able to find me. Moreover, who knows if I’ll become an inner elder of the Flying Dragon Sect after this? With that, will the force you belong to dare to act against me or my clan? If the Flying Dragon Sect finds out that you sought revenge because of the qualifying test, you should be worried about your clan instead.”

Clearly, those who dared to surround the participants from lord-rank forces were not afraid of the repercussions. Hence, threats were useless against them.

“15 minutes are almost up. Although I can’t kill in here, I feel happy just thinking about injuring all these arrogant lord-rank forces’ disciples. You can just watch as we pass the qualifying test,” someone said after snickering. With that, another person said insultingly, “So what if you’re from lord-rank forces. We’re all below the age of 5,000. How strong can all of you be when you don’t have numbers on your side?”

The group of people who were not from lord-rank forces was a good mix of those from king-rank forces, king-rank rank bandit forces, and sectless cultivators. Perhaps, for this reason, most of them were unaware of the latest news or events.

Hence, upon hearing the insulting words, almost all of the lord-rank forces turned to look at Duan Ling Tian in unison.

Those who were not from lord-rank forces who were standing in the distance were also looking at Duan Ling Tian.

Although Duan Ling Tian was not even 5,000 years old, he had once killed two outstanding core disciples from the Hidden Fog Sect. Most importantly, the two core disciples he killed were strong enough to defeat ordinary advanced Kings of Gods.

Those from lord-rank forces such as the Hidden Fog Sect, the 10,000 Devils Sect, the Eastern Oriental Sect, the Murong clan, and the Linghu clan knew that even Du Po Jun, who was only second to Yang Qian Ye in the 10,000 Devils Sect and was the among the first in the first round of the qualifying test, was wary of Duan Ling Tian and had openly stated he was not confident he would be able to defeat Duan Ling Tian. In other words, if Duan Ling Tian participated in the first round of the qualifying test for the age group, he would have been able to rank at the top as well.

Meanwhile, outside of the mirror abyss.

Murong Yun Liu, the Clan Leader of the Linghu clan, looked at Linghu Zheng Xing and said with a smile, “Supreme Elder Zheng Xing, it seems like those people have not heard about Revered Elder Duan seeing as they dare to surround him and the others from the lord-rank forces. How foolish.”

Linghu Zheng Xing smiled and said, “Perhaps, they think that with numbers on their side, they’ll be able to stop Revered Elder Duan. Alas, they’re overestimating themselves.”

Even Qian Yin, the Sect Leader of the Hidden Fog Sect, and Supreme Elder Lei looked at those people who surrounded Duan Ling Tian and the others disdainfully.

Apart from that, some people also begin to chat among themselves.

“It seems like those who died in the second round after they cheated managed to warn off those who intended to cheat.”

“Isn’t that obvious? Otherwise, someone would’ve cheated during this round as well.”

“There are always those foolish enough to try and cheat during the Flying Dragon Sect’s entrance examinations.

After 15 minutes passed, Yin Ping Yi said loudly, “You may begin.”



In the mirror abyss.

As soon as Yin Ping Yi’s voice fell, Duan Ling Tian grabbed Hou Qing Ning’s face.

With that, Hou Qing Ning quickly grabbed Murong Yin Yue’s hand with a reddened face.

Swoosh!

In just a moment, Duan Ling Tian teleported along with the duo near the top of the abyss.

Upon seeing this, the group of people that surrounded Duan Ling Tian and the others were angered. Those who had also comprehended the law of space and those who did not give chase immediately.

“You think you can leave so easily? Dream

on?”

“I’ll catch up to you and drag you down in a minute!”

“I advise you to give up.”

This group of people now focused their anger on Duan Ling Tian as they chased after him.

Meanwhile, contrary to everyone’s expectations, Duan Ling Tian did not teleport for the second to leave the abyss. Instead, he came to a stop and said to Hou Qing Ning, “Both of you, leave first.”

“Alright.”

Hou Qing Ning did not refuse. After all, he was aware of how strong Duan Ling Tian was. Without any hesitation, he let go of Murong Yin Yue and motioned to Murong Yin Yue to fly up. After all, she did not need his help to fly up.

However, as soon as Hou Qing Ning let go of Murong Yin Yue’s hand, she grabbed his hand again and said with a mixture of anger and shyness, “You’re planning to run away after taking advantage of me?”

“No, I… Duan Ling Tian told us to leave. Didn’t you, didn’t you hear him?”

“Fool! We’ll talk about this after we get out of this place,” Murong Yin Yue said huffily before she took the initiative to pull Hou Qing Ning to the top.

Outside of the mirror abyss.

Murong Yun Liu frowned slightly upon seeing that scene. As a father, how could he not know that his daughter was fond of Hou Qing Ning? However, he was still displeased by this sight. It felt as though a cabbage he had planted and raised with great care had been stolen by a wild boar.

“You can’t leave!”

“Stop them!”

The group of the people who were not from lord-rank forces had just arrived below Duan Ling Tian and the others and were about to give chase when they saw Hou Qing Ning and Murong Yin Yue flying up. However, it did not take long before everyone, whether they planned to teleport or fly, suddenly froze.

Duan Ling Tian, who was hovering in the void, tapped his right foot slightly before a powerful barrier formed from his Divine Energy and law of space appeared, blocking the people below.

With the spatial barrier, no one could pass through, not even if they used teleportation.

Finally, someone exclaimed, “He’s an intermediate King of Gods!”

The expressions of those who were not from lord-rank forces changed drastically. They did not expect the purple-clad young man to be an intermediate King of Gods. How could someone below the age of 5,000 become an intermediate King of Gods?

For those below the age of 5,000, they were considered as monstrous talents in the Eastern Ridge Mansion even if they only managed to become ordinary rudimentary Kings of Gods.
