670: Chapter 670 This Holy Land disciple is so diligent!

She immediately stopped teasing Qin Yan and slowly spoke: "It's a lineage master from Diluo Valley, bringing the elite prodigies of the valley here, wanting to have a Fighting Arena match with our East Courtyard prodigies."

A Fighting Arena match?

Diluo Valley?

Qin Yan's brow furrowed slightly.

Seeing Qin Yan's expression, Huang Jiuli knew he might not know about Diluo Valley, so she thoughtfully explained it to him.

"Diluo Valley is a super power located in the Yuan Realm. There are eight lineages in the valley, and every lineage master is a True Emperor Realm powerhouse."

Speaking to this point, Huang Jiuli's tone was full of solemnity.

True Emperor Realm—those are powerhouses standing at the peak of the Heavens and Myriad Worlds, a height that countless Martial Artists cannot reach in their entire lives.

And Diluo Valley actually possessed eight True Emperor Realm powerhouses, with all eight lineages moving together; the depth of this power's foundation was evident.

The Phoenix Divine Mountain where she resided was also in the Yuan Realm.

Phoenix Divine Mountain was a super power in the Yuan Realm, and in terms of strength, it was on par with Diluo Valley.

It was precisely because she understood the strength of Diluo Valley that Huang Jiuli showed such a solemn expression.

"And this time, this lineage master brought seven Disciples. We have a total of eight Disciples present, so—"

Huang Jiuli stopped speaking at this point and looked around.

Qin Yan naturally understood the unspoken meaning in Huang Jiuli's words.

Including himself, the eight Heavenly Ladder Clearers present were all arrogant prodigies.

No one would be willing to be that eighth person who was eliminated, which meant that even before fighting the Disciples of Diluo Valley, an invisible layer of internal competition had already formed among them.

However, he didn't feel the slightest bit of fear—with his current formidable strength at the Body Refining Rank 6 Peak and 1,654,000 calories of basic blood qi, aside from those few super prodigies who had already condensed a Supreme-grade Concept who might make him slightly wary, he didn't really care about the rest.

While pondering, Qin Yan's gaze passed over the several Heavenly Ladder Clearers present and cast toward the other side of the hall.

There, seven Disciples were standing together.

Five men and two women.

The men were handsome, and the women were beautiful.

With sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, faces like carved jade, and an ethereal temperament.

Each wore yellow robes embroidered with ancient patterns, emitting a faint spiritual light.

They were either standing or leaning, some closing their eyes to rest, some talking in low voices, and some silently observing the Taixuan Holy Land Disciples in the hall.

From their bodies, a powerful aura emanated.

They stood there quietly, their gazes calm and expressions indifferent, as if they were full of confidence for the upcoming competition.

"It seems these seven are the so-called prodigies of Diluo Valley."

Qin Yan thought to himself.

After clearing up the cause and effect of the matter, Qin Yan continued to train his Spear Technique on the side.

Qin Yan held the moyuan spirit weapon, his long spear dancing.

Spear shadows layered upon each other, and Spear Intent surged like a rainbow.

The other Heavenly Ladder Clearers in the hall were already used to Qin Yan's unusual behavior.

They had already investigated him and long knew that this guy was a cultivation maniac.

As long as he had time, he was training.

As if he never knew fatigue.

But the people from Diluo Valley were all attracted by him.

This Holy Land Disciple is so diligent.

Everyone else was waiting, talking, or resting to build up energy, yet he alone was practicing his spear there, as if no one else existed, completely focused.

However, when they felt that Qin Yan's Qi Refining was only at the Sixth-Rank Late Stage, they stopped paying much attention.

A gap of one minor Realm didn't mean much for ordinary Martial Artists.

But in a duel between prodigies of their level, a gap of one minor Realm, when placed under their terrifying Martial Arts Skills, meant the difference in strength was not just a little bit.

Concepts, Spirit Beast Phantoms, natal spirit weapons—with various buffs stacked, the basic gap of a minor Realm would be magnified to an irremediable degree.

"Don't be careless."

A woman in the center of the Diluo Valley group spoke; her voice wasn't loud, but it clearly reached the ears of every Diluo Valley Disciple.

This woman's name was Senior Sister Luo Qinghe, and she was the undisputed number one among this generation of Diluo Valley Disciples.

Her aura was steady and restrained, showing no sharp edges.

But in those eyes as clear as water, there was a hidden sharpness that seemed to perceive everything.

Furthermore, Senior Sister Luo Qinghe was the Personal Disciple of Pulse Master Lu Chenyuan, the lineage master of the Moonlit Lineage in Diluo Valley.

Being accepted as a Disciple by a lineage master in the True Emperor Realm was enough to prove her talent and strength in itself.

"This is likely the Disciple named Qin Yan that Master mentioned."

Senior Sister Luo Qinghe's gaze fell on Qin Yan, watching quietly for a moment before withdrawing.

"Eldest Senior Sister is right."

Another man spoke in agreement.

His name was Li Tianxing, with a burly build, a resolute face, thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a back like a tiger and waist like a bear.

The yellow robe he wore was stretched tight by his bulging muscles.

Li Tianxing was the Disciple whose strength was second only to Senior Sister Luo Qinghe in Diluo Valley.

"This person's cultivation level is low, and he uses Spear Techniques; he is very likely the Qin Yan who cultivated the Five Elements Primordial Scripture."

Li Tianxing added.

They from Diluo Valley naturally didn't come blindly; they had conducted an investigation into the Taixuan Holy Land Disciples before daring to come for the competition.

Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles.

This was the most basic principle.

If they rashly came to challenge without knowing anything about the Holy Land Disciples' strength, and if the gap between the two sides was too large, the competition would lose its original intent of mutual sparring and common progress.

Therefore, before coming, Diluo Valley had already investigated the prodigies of the Taixuan Holy Land's East Courtyard—who the Heavenly Ladder Clearers were, who cultivated what technique, who comprehended what intent; they knew some surface-level information clearly.

Qin Yan, cultivating the Five Elements Primordial Scripture, a Heavenly Ladder Clearer, first on the individual contribution ranking, and clearing the Lava Secret Realm—this information was enough to warrant their attention.

Hearing this, the other Disciples also retracted the slight look of disdain on their faces.

The Five Elements Primordial Scripture was a technique ranked at the Paramount-level.

Even if the opponent was only at the Sixth-Rank Late Stage, his blood qi foundation was not at all inferior to theirs, even though they were at the Rank 6 Peak and cultivated top-tier techniques.

Fighting above one's level was a common occurrence for those who cultivated Paramount-level techniques.

In this state, Qin Yan was worthy of their attention.

Qin Yan was unaware of these conversations.

He didn't know that just by practicing his spear for a while, he had caused the seven people opposite him to speculate and discuss incessantly.

At this moment, he was still immersed in his spear practice.

Everything in the outside world had nothing to do with him.

After an unknown amount of time, a burst of loud laughter rang out in the hall.
