61: Chapter 61: Just a little bit ahead of her, registration successful.

Bai Yunzhou Steps Up, Attracting Attention from All Sides

At the Inner Gate Plaza.

Bai Yunzhou walked out from the registration queue.

As a currently well-known Inner Sect Disciple of the Qingxuan Sect, his appearance naturally attracted the attention of quite a few people.

"It is Bai Yunzhou! He has finally stepped up!"

A low murmur instantly sounded in the crowd, and the gazes of many Disciples focused on him with various expressions.

"I previously heard that his talent was comparable to Junior Sister Liu Qingmo, but Junior Sister Liu just tested a Foundation of three zhang and four chi. I wonder what level he can reach."

Someone spoke with a hint of doubt in their tone, their eyes filled with curiosity.

Someone immediately chimed in beside them.

"Junior Sister Liu's Foundation can be called Heaven-Defying. No matter how high Bai Yunzhou's talent is, I am afraid there is still a significant gap."

There were also a few Disciples who favored Bai Yunzhou and retorted.

"You cannot say it like that! Bai Yunzhou previously surpassed Liu Qingmo on the inner sect Foundation test ranking list."

"Could it be that his Foundation is also deeply hidden?"

"No matter how deeply hidden it is, so what?"

"From ancient times to the present, how many people can achieve such a profound Foundation as Junior Sister Liu with the cultivation of Mid Foundation Establishment?"

"I estimate that Bai Yunzhou's result will be at most around two zhang eight or nine chi."

"..."

The voices of doubt quickly overwhelmed the retorts.

Obviously, in the eyes of most Disciples, with Liu Qingmo's current Foundation, she is definitely number one in Mid Foundation Establishment among the Inner Sect Disciples.

It is impossible for Bai Yunzhou to surpass Liu Qingmo.

In the corner of the crowd, Sun Yu looked at Bai Yunzhou slowly walking towards the test stele and similarly did not think much of him.

Although back in the outer sect, Bai Yunzhou's Foundation was far above his.

Even when they reached the inner sect, the other party had helped him out of a tight spot.

But he felt that compared to Liu Qingmo, Bai Yunzhou probably still had some distance to go.

After all, Liu Qingmo's results were truly Heaven-Defying.

But no matter what, the profundity of Bai Yunzhou's Foundation definitely far surpassed his.

Regarding this point, he was extremely certain.

In the crowd not far from him, Song Xinghe stood with his hands behind his back, dressed in white clothes whiter than snow, possessing an ethereal temperament.

His gaze calmly swept across Bai Yunzhou, and the corners of his mouth still carried a faint smile.

Unlike others, he always had this feeling that his former friend would definitely bring a huge surprise to everyone in this Inner Sect Grand Competition.

Because of this, he favored Bai Yunzhou quite a bit.

After all, this was one of the few fellow Disciples he favored back in the outer sect.

On the side of the plaza, Liu Qingmo, who had just finished registering, had not yet left. She stood quietly in place, her plain white skirt swaying gently in the wind.

When she saw Bai Yunzhou stepping forward, her clear eyes remained calm.

Bai Yunzhou and she once had an engagement.

Unfortunately, it was later annulled by her.

Although Bai Yunzhou had now recovered his cultivation and broken through his cultivation to Mid Foundation Establishment, reaching the same level as her.

However, the reason she was still only at Mid Foundation Establishment was simply to Cultivate the Emperor Scripture and firmly build her Foundation.

Therefore, even knowing that Bai Yunzhou had reached the same cultivation as her, she had never regretted annulling the engagement.

After all, she was a Rebirth Empress who would definitely ascend to the Nine Heavens in the future. How could she be willing to become a Dao Companion with an ordinary Genius?

On the other side, Deng Mufeng, dressed in green robes, also smiled as she looked at Bai Yunzhou registering in the plaza.

Last time at Yunmeng Mountain, she led people to save him and made a huge profit.

Therefore, she had a deep impression of this Junior Brother.

Afterwards, she even specifically inquired about him.

Knowing that this Junior Brother Bai once had an engagement with Liu Qingmo, but it was later annulled when someone came to their door.

After that, this Junior Brother Bai entered the inner sect and went to challenge the rankings.

I do not know if it was intentional or unintentional, but every time he challenged the rankings, his position happened to be one rank higher than Liu Qingmo's.

However, Deng Mufeng felt that he did it on purpose, otherwise how could he manage to suppress the other party by a head every single time?

"I wonder if Junior Brother Bai can suppress Liu Qingmo by a head this time."

Yue Qianshan at the side shook his head.

"I think it is doubtful!"

Lü Heng did not speak, but from his expression, it was not hard to see that he agreed with Yue Qianshan's view.

Perhaps because of Liu Qingmo's previous outstanding performance, after Bai Yunzhou stepped up, Li Dongjun, a popular Disciple for winning the championship, also paid attention to him.

"I heard that this Bai Yunzhou is a Disciple of Elder Zhou Mu, and his talent is on par with Liu Qingmo. I wonder what kind of result he can hit out."

Li Dongjun said with a smile at the corner of his mouth.

Zhang Miaoyi at the side had a calm expression and said indifferently.

"This Bai Yunzhou is quite famous in the inner sect nowadays, and previously scored a good result on the inner sect test ranking list. Presumably, this test should not be too bad."

"Junior Sister Zhang is actually paying so much attention to this person?"

On the other side, Wang Chuan was stunned for a moment, then said.

"Actually, there is completely no need!"

"He is merely at Mid Foundation Establishment. No matter how strong his Foundation is, can it possibly compare to ours?"

"If he encounters me in the subsequent fights, it will just be a matter of one round. Why should the two of you pay too much attention?"

In his view, he was a popular contender for winning the championship this time and even held a Spirit Treasure in his hands. Although Bai Yunzhou was a Genius, there was no need to care about him too much.

He only needed to focus on Li Dongjun and Zhang Miaoyi, who were also popular Disciples for winning the championship.

Just as they were discussing, Bai Yunzhou on the plaza had already walked up to the test stele.

The deacon responsible for the test raised his eyes to scan him and said in a deep voice: "Strike your fist!"

Bai Yunzhou had a calm expression, took a deep breath, and then threw a punch, which landed steadily on the test stele.

"Hum—"

In an instant, the test stele trembled violently, and dazzling spiritual light suddenly erupted, rapidly climbing along the patterns of the stele.

The speed was far beyond when Liu Qingmo was tested!

"Eight chi! One zhang! One zhang five!"

Someone in the crowd subconsciously counted out loud, their voice full of shock.

The spiritual light did not stop at all, soaring all the way to three zhang, three zhang three chi, three zhang four chi—just when everyone thought the spiritual light would freeze there, it actually twitched slightly upwards by a sliver.

In the end, it stopped steadily at the height of three zhang four chi and one cun!

A single stone stirs up a thousand waves!

The entire Inner Gate Plaza instantly fell into a dead silence, and the next second, earth-shaking exclamation cries burst out!

"Hiss—three zhang four chi and one cun! He actually really surpassed Liu Qingmo!"

"My god! Just one cun difference! He happened to suppress Junior Sister Liu by a head, this is simply too amazing!"

"Who said earlier that he would have at most two zhang eight or nine chi? Your face must be swollen from being slapped! This is the true talented Prodigy!"

The voices of doubt completely disappeared, replaced by endless shock and awe.

Sun Yu's pupils in the corner of the crowd shrank sharply, his face filled with disbelief.

"Could... could he really have surpassed Liu Qingmo again?!"

Liu Qingmo not far away, upon seeing the spiritual light on the stele in front of Bai Yunzhou finally stop at three zhang four chi and one cun, her originally calm eyes also had a trace of fluctuation at this moment, as if she could not believe that the other party had surpassed her in Foundation.

You must know that the reason she could have such a profound Foundation now was precisely because she cultivated the Emperor Scripture.

Yet Bai Yunzhou was merely an ordinary Genius born into the secular world, with no cultivation background to speak of. How could he possibly condense such a profound Foundation?

And even happened to suppress her by a head again.

This made her, a Rebirth Empress, unable to accept it in her heart for a moment.

Seeing this scene, Song Xinghe's smile grew even richer, and a flash of 'as expected' light crossed his eyes.

"I knew you would not let me down."

Deng Mufeng flashed a hint of pleasant surprise in her eyes and chuckled.

"He really did it on purpose! Suppressing her by a head every single time, this Junior Brother Bai is quite interesting."

Yue Qianshan and Lü Heng at the side were dumbfounded, their previous certainty long since gone without a trace.

A trace of amazement appeared on Li Dongjun's face.

"He actually really surpassed Liu Qingmo... This child is indeed not simple!"

Wang Chuan's originally casual gaze instantly turned sharp, staring fixedly at Bai Yunzhou, and the disdain on his face was replaced by shock.

"This brat... how could he also have such a Foundation?"

A clear fluctuation finally appeared on Zhang Miaoyi's cold face, and a hint of surprise flashed deep in her eyes.

Above the pavilion, the calmness on Xing Zhan's face directly froze.

After all, he was the one favoring Liu Qingmo.

And now Bai Yunzhou suppressed Liu Qingmo by a head on their Foundation, which was not a good thing.

Cao Yuanbai and Yuan Xi suddenly felt immense pressure.

Elder Zhou Mu had no particular reaction, her expression remaining calm, but from the slightly upturned corners of her mouth, it was not hard to see that her mood at the moment was quite good.

On the plaza.

Bai Yunzhou also breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the score he had hit.

He withdrew his fist and said to the deacon responsible for registration.

"Deacon Elder, can my score be considered qualified?"

The deacon in charge of registration came back to his senses and nodded.

"Naturally."

Then he hurriedly completed the registration for Bai Yunzhou.

After all, someone who could have such a profound Foundation would be a big figure in the future, and they must not be offended.

After completing the registration, Bai Yunzhou nodded slightly to the deacon and turned to walk towards the crowd.

As soon as he returned to the crowd, Zhou Zhiting immediately stepped forward quickly.

Her eyes were full of admiration and excitement, and her voice carried a hint of joy.

"Senior Brother Bai, you are too amazing!"

"You wouldn't know, just now many people thought you were going to be suppressed by Liu Qingmo by a head, but who would have thought that in a flash you surpassed her instead!"

Bai Yunzhou just smiled.

"It is merely sheer luck."

He knew that Liu Qingmo was a Rebirth Empress and must not be underestimated.

Zhou Zhiting nodded thoughtfully, then asked again.

"Right, Senior Brother Bai, I heard that the Outer Sect Market is currently opening bets for this Inner Sect Grand Competition. Shall we also go buy some?"

Bai Yunzhou showed a puzzled expression.

"The Outer Sect Market is opening bets?"

After coming to the plaza earlier, he had been checking everyone's Opportunity.

Therefore, although he had also heard some things about the betting from the crowd, he had not paid excessive attention to it.

Zhou Zhiting hurriedly explained.

"Yes! It is a gambling stall jointly established by some commercial associations in the market and various major families of the Qingxuan Sect to place bets on the rankings of this Inner Sect Grand Competition. If you win, you can make a lot of Spirit Stones!"

"I just heard the Disciples nearby say that the odds for betting on Senior Brother Bai to enter the top ten are quite high right now, since not many people favored you before."

Hearing the other's explanation, Bai Yunzhou instantly became interested.

He possessed the Opportunity panel and could see the Opportunity everyone could obtain in this Inner Sect Grand Competition.

Naturally, he could also see the final rankings everyone would achieve in this Inner Sect Grand Competition.

In other words, as long as he went to place bets at the Outer Sect Market's gambling stall, it would be equivalent to going to collect money!

Thinking of this, he immediately smiled and said.

"In that case, after you register later, let us go check out the Outer Sect Market."
