Ready

Two spiritual creatures!

Upon seeing the information displayed in the daily intelligence, Xu Ying couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

A hidden son-in-law so deeply concealed, truly worthy of being a Child of Destiny.

In a place like the Central Region, where Great Emperors cultivate in seclusion and various Great Experts fly around, to be able to hide for so long without being discovered...

If it weren't for Destiny attaching itself and Luck empowering him, Xu Ying wouldn't believe this son-in-law could hide for so long.

He also knew that he held the script of a Child of Destiny, and it would be best if he didn't have to confront other Children of Destiny.

Soon, led by Chi Qingning, the Holy Lord's Great Hall was reached.

A magnificent and grand gate boomed open, seemingly already waiting for the three of them.

After Xu Ying and the other two entered, they found themselves in the same Great Hall as last time.

However, compared to the last time, Hua Yunfeng was missing this time.

"Greetings, Holy Lord." x2

"Greetings, Revered Master."

Xu Ying and the other two cupped their hands towards the man on the main seat, respectfully saying.

The Big Dipper Holy Lord's eyes drooped, purple light flickering within them.

His gaze swept over Xu Ying and the other two, finally resting on Xu Ying, and he nodded with satisfaction.

"I called you here this time because there's something I need to inform you!"

"May I ask, Holy Lord, what is it?"

Chi Qingning and Sun Xingzhe asked cautiously, while Xu Ying's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

He thought of the information he had received from the daily intelligence; it couldn't be...

The next moment, the Big Dipper Holy Lord stood up, his gaze fixed straight ahead.

"Tomorrow is the succession banquet for the North Dipper Saintess."

"After discussions between myself and several Grand Elders..."

"We have decided to announce the name of the North Dipper Saint to the world tomorrow."

Upon hearing these words, Chi Qingning's eyes showed surprise, and Sun Xingzhe's pupils contracted.

Xu Ying had already prepared himself, but on the surface, he still feigned a look of exaggeration.

The Big Dipper Holy Lord glanced at the three of them and continued, "This decision was sudden."

"It's a bit unfair to the two of you."

"So, I want Qing Ning to bear witness here, and choose one of you two."

Hearing these words, Sun Xingzhe felt a bit disheartened, but upon careful thought, he understood that the gap between him and Xu Ying was too great now.

Moreover, his own Fighting Saint Body's advancement was even due to the other party's guidance.

Thinking of this, Sun Xingzhe's face immediately became resolute, having made his decision.

"Holy Lord, I concede in this Saint competition. I wholeheartedly approve of Xu Ying's succession."

"However, I still want to try."

"Just let him take one full-powered strike from me!!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Ying's eyes showed some emotion; this guy really was something.

If it were according to the tropes of story novels, the two of them would definitely turn against each other because of this.

But Sun Xingzhe had taken the initiative to concede, stepping back.

As for taking a full-powered strike from the other party, for Xu Ying, it was actually the simplest thing.

The Big Dipper Holy Lord's eyes flashed with appreciation, and he simultaneously handed the choice over to Xu Ying.

"Alright!"

"Old Sun, come on, it's a good chance for me to experience your full-powered staff strike!"

Xu Ying was now ready, looking at Sun Xingzhe with full concentration.

At this moment, Sun Xingzhe's Fighting Saint Body was already activated, his whole body trembling.

He tightly gripped the spirit weapon long staff in his hand, brandishing it in the air with a whistling sound.

Inside the Great Hall, the Big Dipper Holy Lord waved his hand, directly setting up an invisible arena, confining the residual waves of their attacks within it.

"Take my strike, Heaven-Overturning Staff!!"

Sun Xingzhe's eyes narrowed, golden light seemingly flashing in their depths.

The long staff he tightly gripped, under the enhancement of his Fighting Saint Body, seemed to transform into the Sea-Stabilizing Staff from the Four Seas.

Sun Xingzhe brandished it a few times, and a heaven-overturning Aura seemed to appear in the air.

"Ding!!"

Facing the overwhelming and powerful pressure, Xu Ying suddenly raised his Shattered Demon Blade.

The collision of their weapons instantly produced a crisp sound.

Sun Xingzhe's Heaven-Overturning Staff ultimately failed to break through Xu Ying's defense.

"So, the gap between us is this big."

Sun Xingzhe withdrew the long staff from his hand, saying with a bitter smile.

His full-powered strike just now, he had originally thought it would at least make Xu Ying use a Divine Ability.

But he never expected that Xu Ying would only casually take out his weapon to break that strike.

"Old Sun, the path of cultivation is long; why be in such a hurry!"

Xu Ying, however, patted him on the shoulder, comforting him.

Upon seeing the result, Chi Qingning's eyes flashed with joy.

The Big Dipper Holy Lord then raised his hand and said, "Since that's the case, tomorrow I will jointly announce the name of the North Dipper Saint."

"Xu Ying, you must be prepared."

"At that time, not only will Prodigies from the Central Region come to challenge you, but even forces from the other few regions and the Chaotic Star Sea will descend."

Hearing these words, Xu Ying's heart tightened, and he immediately became vigilant.

With his current cultivation in the Four Symbols Realm, he could withstand most Cultivators of the same realm.

But it was inevitable that one or two Prodigies would appear.

For example, that Chaos Body from the Central Region.

"I'm afraid that Chaos Body has already accepted the invitation of the Ancient Sacred Body and is on his way now."

"I have no fear of others."

"I just fear that this Chaos Body Prodigy will be blessed by Destiny and unleash his full power!"

Xu Ying blinked his eyes, and Battle Intent also ignited in his heart.

Having finally obtained the position of North Dipper Saint, he absolutely had to hold onto it.

Tomorrow, he absolutely could not let those external forces succeed.

"Then, Holy Lord, we will withdraw first."

Just as Xu Ying and the other two were about to leave, the Big Dipper Holy Lord stopped Xu Ying again.

With a wave of his hand, two Heaven and Earth spiritual objects emitting strange power appeared.

One mass of golden light flickered, extremely dazzling.

The other mass was a green light, emitting a gentle Aura.

"This one is a Geng Metal Divine Stone."

"This one is a Jianmu Leaf."

"These two Heaven and Earth spiritual objects should be enough to complete your Four Symbols Life Palace!"

The Big Dipper Holy Lord explained with a smile.

Sun Xingzhe, beside him, showed an envious look; these two Heaven and Earth spiritual objects were incredibly rare.

Even in general large forces, such spiritual objects were simply nonexistent.

Seeing the envy in his eyes, the Big Dipper Holy Lord said, "Sun Xingzhe, once you Breakthrough to the Four Symbols Realm, I will also help you find the spiritual objects you lack."

"No need to envy others."

"Thank you, Holy Lord."

Upon hearing this, Sun Xingzhe immediately brightened and quickly thanked him.

Xu Ying was also happy for him by his side.

"Go now. Today, Cultivators from the Central Region will descend upon the Beidou Holy Land. If you encounter them, you must receive them well."

"Of course, if you encounter rude guests, you don't need to tolerate them."

"I will back you up in everything."

Hearing the Big Dipper Holy Lord's words, which were calm yet full of confidence, Xu Ying and the other two immediately felt full of confidence.
