802: Chapter 802 Deputy Hall Master of the Thunderclap Palace, Deputy Alliance Master of the Flame Luo Star Alliance

Today, the Outer Hall of Shenyuan Holy Land was exceptionally lively.

In addition to those from Shenyuan Holy Land, people from the Yanluo Star Alliance and Hongtian Hall had also arrived at the Outer Hall.

They were all in the World Realm, and they had arrived at Shenyuan Holy Land bringing along the geniuses from their respective forces.

Their purpose: to participate in the Shen Tianluo Grand Assembly.

Su Yuan arrived at Xuantian Square; looking out from the outside, the entire Xuantian Square was open to the public.

The Tongshen Realm area, which used to be a hazy and invisible expanse, was now also open.

The Transcendence Realm area and the Tongshen Realm area each occupied half of Xuantian Square's total area; only now, fully open, was Xuantian Square in its complete state.

Looking around, many exquisite chairs were placed around Xuantian Square for people to sit.

A huge open space was left in the middle to serve as the combat arena for the Shen Tianluo Grand Assembly.

“Brother Yuan, over here!”

Chen Shenxiao was sitting somewhere in the middle of Xuantian Square; seeing Su Yuan, he sent a voice transmission and waved to greet him.

With a slight flicker of his body, Su Yuan took a seat beside Chen Shenxiao.

This action immediately caught the attention of more than half of the surrounding people.

“Is that... Su Yuan? Why does he look so familiar with the Little Immortal Saint?”

“Shenyuan Holy Land's Su Yuan, the one who seized the inheritance of the crimson sovereign last time. I heard his Realm isn't high, yet he was actually selected for Shenyuan Holy Land's roster for this Shen Tianluo Grand Assembly. How strange.”

“With Su Yuan participating in the Shen Tianluo Grand Assembly, did Shenyuan Holy Land fill in the wrong name? Why would they let Su Yuan participate? His strength doesn't seem sufficient to contend with the geniuses from the Yanluo Star Alliance and Hongtian Hall; both of those forces sent members at the Peak Transcendence Realm.”

“Over a month has passed; does anyone know what Su Yuan's current Realm is?”

“I heard from someone who participated in the inheritance of the crimson sovereign last time that Su Yuan seemed to be at the Mid-stage Star King Realm.”

“What? A Mid-stage Star King Realm participating in the Shen Tianluo Grand Assembly? That can't be right, can it?”

The people seated nearby discussed in low voices; when they learned of Su Yuan's Realm, their eyes widened in shock, and they were utterly dumbfounded.

The people discussing were geniuses from the two forces, all at the Transcendence Realm.

They had followed the World Realm experts of their respective sides specifically to watch the battles.

Those in the Transcendence Realm could not see through Su Yuan's cultivation, so they could only guess his Realm.

However, there were World Realm experts from both forces present, and they could see through Su Yuan's Realm at a glance.

Transcendence Realm Late Stage.

In other words, in just over a month, Su Yuan had risen from the Mid-stage Star King Realm to the Transcendence Realm Late Stage.

With his star power value rising so rapidly, could his other aspects keep up?

Many World Realm experts were puzzled, but since Su Yuan hadn't fought right before their eyes, they couldn't tell much.

“Brother Yuan, it's really lively today.”

Chen Shenxiao looked around and sighed with emotion as he saw the seats nearly filled.

There weren't many seats, only a few thousand.

All the Transcendence Realm members of Shenyuan Holy Land's Outer Hall were already seated, and even the Tongshen Realm members whom he didn't recognize had taken their places.

Then there were the people from Hongtian Hall and the Yanluo Star Alliance; the total number was probably close to two thousand.

It wasn't even eleven o'clock yet, but most people had already arrived at Xuantian Square.

The Yanluo Star Alliance and Hongtian Hall were not late; they arrived at the scene early.

Where they were currently was Shenyuan Holy Land, the interior of the strongest power on Huiqiong Star.

If they were late, wouldn't that be failing to give Shenyuan Holy Land Face? Failing to give the strongest power Face?

The two forces would not, and dared not, do such a thing.

“Indeed.”

“Besides us from Shenyuan Holy Land, there are also the experts and geniuses from the other two forces.”

Su Yuan's eyes also scanned the surroundings; many people exuded fearsome Auras, and among them, over a dozen Auras were extremely terrifying—most likely experts from the world ranking.

He hadn't expected that a mere assembly for geniuses would actually attract so many world ranking existences.

When the people around heard Chen Shenxiao's form of address for Su Yuan, their hearts once again churned with infinite shock.

What had they just heard?

The Little Immortal Saint, the descendant of the dignified Immortal Saint, actually called someone else 'Brother'.

And it was someone who had only recently entered Shenyuan Holy Land.

Wait, did the two of them become close this quickly?

Many people were full of doubts and felt utterly bewildered.

To the left of the Xuantian Square seating was where the people from Hongtian Hall were seated.

Zhang Yuzun glanced sideways toward Chen Shenxiao, his eyes filled with an unfriendly gaze.

“Yuzun.”

Beside him, a sturdy, large man with dyed yellow hair watched the Zhang Yuzun next to him.

“I am here, Venerable Yue.”

Zhang Yuzun withdrew his unfriendly gaze and looked respectfully at Vice Palace Master Xie Xiuyue.

Vice Palace Master Xie Xiuyue, fourth on the world ranking and Vice Hall Master of Hongtian Hall.

“In this ranking battle, you must go all out; do not hold anything back.”

“Even if you are no match for Chen Shenxiao, you must show the Aura of our Hongtian Hall.”

As Vice Palace Master Xie Xiuyue finished speaking, Zhang Yuzun's lips twitched, and he responded helplessly, “Yes, Venerable Yue.”

Then Vice Palace Master Xie Xiuyue scanned directly in front of him, where the members of the Yanluo Star Alliance were located.

His gaze locked onto a certain calm-looking youth: “If possible, strive to maintain your second-place ranking.”

“If you can't maintain it, neither I nor the Venerable Saint will blame you.”

Zhang Yuzun's lips twitched again; did Venerable Yue have so little faith in him?

He even said things like 'if you can't maintain second place'.

Did Venerable Yue think Chu Yisheng, or whoever that fourth Saint was, could beat him in the ranking battle?

“Remember what I said: go all out and leave no regrets.”

Vice Palace Master Xie Xiuyue finished his sentence, then closed his eyes slightly and stopped talking.

Zhang Yuzun looked at him as if wanting to say something, but in the end, he could only force the words back into his heart.

Was their Venerable Yue being a bit too conservative?

Since he was participating in the Shen Tianluo Grand Assembly, he definitely had to aim for first place.

Even if he couldn't beat Chen Shenxiao, he had to try every possible way to make him lose a layer of skin.

Zhang Yuzun remembered the scene of the battle between Chizhen Pavilion and Chen Shenxiao very clearly.

If they had held on a bit longer, maybe they could have found a way to break Chen Shenxiao's sword techniques.

Unfortunately, they were just short in the end and couldn't hold on until the moment they found the method.

“Good luck, Little Venerable Saint! We believe you can definitely secure second place.”

“Exactly, exactly! Your strength is such that no one except Chen Shenxiao can defeat you. Please believe in your own power; among the younger generation, you are the undisputed second.”

“Let the people of the Ninth Star Domain see clearly this time how you display the might of our Hongtian Hall.”

...

Around Vice Palace Master Xie Xiuyue, several World Realm experts spoke up to encourage Zhang Yuzun.

Hearing these words, Zhang Yuzun felt much better, and his emotions calmed significantly.

Shifting his gaze, Zhang Yuzun looked toward that young figure in the distance.

“Even if I can't beat Chen Shenxiao, can't I beat you, Chu Yisheng?”

Zhang Yuzun cast a disdainful glance at Chu Yisheng, then withdrew his gaze and waited quietly for the Shen Tianluo Grand Assembly to begin.

To the right of the Xuantian Square seating.

Chu Yisheng ignored Zhang Yuzun's gaze, his expression calm as he sent a voice transmission to the person beside him.

Chu Yisheng was handsome and bore a seventy percent resemblance to the person sitting next to him.

The one sitting next to him was the Vice Alliance Leader of the Yanluo Star Alliance, Sun Venerable Chu Duanyang.

Unlike Vice Palace Master Xie Xiuyue, Chu Duanyang's hair was entirely red.

This wasn't dyed; it was naturally red.

The two were father and son; neither of them was particularly burly, possessing normal physiques.

Chu Duanyang's hair was red, but Chu Yisheng's hair was a normal black.

“Father, can I spread my wings and fight with all my strength in this Shen Tianluo Grand Assembly?”

“I'm almost unable to restrain myself.”

Chu Yisheng asked Chu Duanyang via voice transmission.
