187: A little polite, but not much

Half an hour later.

Chu Jiang finally stopped, his eyes indifferent, looking down at Purple Mountain Monarch, Tianji Star, and Dibao Star, who had been tortured beyond recognition.

They were either missing an arm or a leg. Blood flowed in streams, staining large areas of the ground, and the air was filled with a foul stench.

Even so, the three of them were still alive, but all their muscles were trembling, and the light of confidence in their eyes had long been replaced by fear.

“These three have had their cultivation crippled by me. According to the old rules, pierce their demonic bones, hang them behind horses, and let them wake up!” Chu Jiang’s voice was bone-chchilling, like a demon from Hell.

“Your subordinate obeys!”

Fu Yunxuan's face lit up with joy. Her Lord's strength seemed to have advanced another level. Even a Peerless Grandmaster was no match for him.

“Take them away!”

At this moment, the three had already exited their demonic state. A dozen Demon Suppression Guards quickly dragged them away.

Some newcomers who had just joined the Demon Suppression Division looked at Chu Jiang with reverence. Was this their leader? He was indeed arrogant and domineering enough.

He showed no mercy to his enemies.

Offend me one bit, and I will return it a hundredfold.

A true man should be like this!

The various powerhouses in the VIP section couldn't help but feel a chill. Such terrifying methods were simply unheard of and unseen; their cruelty was bone-chilling.

It was simply a nightmare, making people shudder.

But on the other hand, Chu Jiang's strength was also shocking.

Three Peerless Grandmasters!

These were not just nobodies; they were powerhouses who could hold their own in any region.

Yet, in Chu Jiang's hands, they were like ants, completely unable to resist in the slightest.

It was impossible for a Peerless Grandmaster to possess such combat power; there was only one possibility.

Chu Jiang had entered the Transcendent Realm.

This talent was too Heaven-Defying. Countless Prodigies were stuck at the Peerless Realm, unable to advance further; crossing into the Transcendent Realm was extremely difficult.

Chu Jiang clasped his hands behind his back, his figure like lightning, instantly flashing to the VIP section.

“Greetings, Commander Chu!”

“Greetings, Senior!”

“If Commander Chu is free, you can come to my Fire Province's Blazing Flame Sect. We will treat you with the highest courtesy!”

“Commander Chu…”

Everyone stood up, greeting him respectfully, no one daring to sit.

Clearly, the scene of Chu Jiang brutally defeating the three Peerless Grandmasters just now was like a deep imprint, etched into everyone's hearts, and they still felt lingering fear.

“Commander Chu, please take the main seat!”

Guixu Zhenren said respectfully, yielding the main seat without hesitation. Everyone felt there was nothing wrong with this action; if Chu Jiang didn't take the main seat, they probably wouldn't dare to sit down.

“You are the host. How could this Immortal Master be impolite and take your seat!”

Chu Jiang flatly refused.

Then, he directly used his Dharma power to condense a golden throne, standing before everyone.

Boom!

Chu Jiang sat steadily on the golden throne.

What?

The onlookers, witnessing this scene, were so shocked their jaws almost dropped. This move was simply too cool.

He did not take the seat offered by Yu Xu Palace, but instead condensed a golden throne for himself, standing at the very front of all the major forces.

The level of showing off was simply perfect.

No one dared to say a word.

The tragic fate of the three Peerless Grandmasters was still vivid in their minds.

This was the deterrent force.

Guixu Zhenren: “…”

The various powerhouses on the VIP platform: “…”

A thought simultaneously popped into their minds: A little polite, but not much.

Cough cough.

Guixu Zhenren cautiously walked to the golden throne and said, “Commander Chu, can we announce the official start of the competition?”

At this moment, it was as if Yu Xu Palace was not the host, but rather Chu Jiang.

“Mm!”

“Don't mind me; just pretend I don't exist. Do what you need to do!”

Chu Jiang nodded.

As soon as these words came out, everyone's mouths twitched. Who would dare to ignore you?

There's a saying: He might not know who sent gifts, but he certainly knows who didn't.

If we don't ask you, will it be okay?

Whoosh!

Guixu Zhenren quickly straightened his back, his voice loud and clear, echoing throughout the entire Heavens Pride Gathering.

“Welcome everyone to the Heavens Pride Gathering hosted by my Yu Xu Palace! This is our Cloud Province's centennial grand event, and we will officially compete for the spots in the main competition!”

“This competition is divided into three major divisions:

Innate Division: The top ten will receive one Peerless Grade weapon and ten Three-Turn True Essence Pills. The champion will receive one Purple Qi Pill.

Vajra Division: The top ten will receive one Peerless Grade weapon and five Six-Rotation True Essence Pills. The champion will additionally receive three Purple Qi Pills.

Grandmaster Division: The top ten will receive one nine revolutions true yuan pill and ten Purple Qi Pills. The champion will additionally receive one Storage Pouch.”

“The top ten from each group will be awarded the title of Ten Great Prodigies and will receive the opportunity to comprehend a mysterious ancient scroll!”

Hearing Guixu Zhenren's words, everyone gasped.

“High-grade Zhenyuan Pills, Purple Qi Pills, Peerless Grade weapons, Storage Pouches… My goodness, Yu Xu Palace is too generous!”

“Purple Qi Pills can be taken by anyone below the Great Grandmaster Realm. They can cleanse true essence, increase its purity, and have a certain probability of causing true essence to mutate!”

“The nine revolutions true yuan pill! This is a precious pill that can directly elevate an Early Stage Grandmaster powerhouse to the Late Stage. Even a Late Stage Grandmaster can be elevated to the Peak Grandmaster Realm!”

“And the Storage Pouch! This reward is the most luxurious in recent sessions!”

Everyone whispered to each other, their discussions surging like a tide.

Their eyes all flashed with fervor.

These rewards, even if only one item was taken out, would be enough to drive people crazy.

The competition for the top ten would also be more intense.

As Guixu Zhenren's words fell, the Heavens Pride Gathering officially began.

As the three hundred Geniuses on the field drew their lots, they returned to their teams.

“First match, please, the person who drew number 28, come to the stage!”

The referee announced loudly. This competition adopted a lottery system; sometimes, luck was also a form of strength, with fate predetermined in the unseen.

Subsequently.

A muscular figure ascended the arena and shouted:

“Iron Sand Gate, Zhang Danu! I advise my opponent to get down early, otherwise, it won't be good if I accidentally injure you later!”

“Loose Cultivator, Gou Buli, here to accept the challenge!”

Soon, another person who had drawn number 28 ascended the arena.

Bang bang bang!

The two fought for more than a dozen rounds, and the battle finally ended with Gou Buli's Black Tiger Kicks the Egg.

“Gou Buli wins and secures a spot in the Innate Division's main competition!”

Afterward.

Geniuses successively ascended the arena.

The clashing sounds of various weapons were incessant, and there was also the thrill of fist-to-fist combat.

From time to time, it drew praise from the onlookers.

Chu Jiang sat on the golden throne and watched for a long time, but basically, none of them entered his Dharma Eye.

Alas.

Breaking through Realms too quickly.

It was also a kind of trouble.

Originally, he should have been among the contestants, overcoming various obstacles, defeating Prodigies from all walks of life, and finally winning the top prize, gaining the favor and importance of the big shots.

Unfortunately.

He didn't have this experience.

Among the younger generation, no one could keep up with his pace. This kind of Prodigy competition had nothing to do with him.

He could only be a big shot.

His strength now matched that of the Old Ancestor-level figures of the various major forces in the Western Seven Provinces.

“Commander Chu, are there no Geniuses that caught your eye? These are all elites from the Western Provinces!”

Yang Huo of the Golden Eagle Gate saw Chu Jiang's lack of interest and asked.
