C305 They Had All Gathered in the Protectorate
The Mountain Master of the Sword Mountain had a solemn expression on his face as he slowly explained to everyone.
Lin Feng knew about the Divine Ranking Competition, but this was the first time he had heard of the Divine Ranking Preliminary. However, since the Mountain Master of Sword Mountain was willing to personally go to the Duhu Mansion and even risk the Sword Mountain, it showed the importance of the Divine Ranking Preliminary.
The old man seemed to have seen the surprise in the eyes of many people, and he also saw the doubt on Lin Feng's face. He could not help but laugh and say, "I know that everyone has doubts about the Divine Ranking Preliminary. Indeed, this is the first time the Divine Ranking Preliminary has been held."
"This should be a new attempt by the God Kingdom to cultivate experts on the Quasi-God Ranking, and even to select the top three disciples in the preliminaries so that they can enter the Divine Ranking in the future."
"The Divine Ranking Preliminary is divided into the preliminaries and the semi-finals. The disciples of the six sects do not need to participate in the preliminaries. They can directly enter the semi-finals, but those who come from other directions need to participate. After entering the semi-finals, there will be a competition. The Divine Ranking Preliminary will be ranked in the top 20."
"The top three of the Divine Ranking Preliminary will also participate in the next Divine Ranking Competition. Everyone should be concerned about the Divine Ranking Competition. It will be held half a month later, at the Phoenix Mountain."
"Maybe everyone will be suspicious. Isn't Feng Mingshan supposed to be hosting the Peak Competition? Hehe, I want to tell everyone that the Peak Competition and the Divine Ranking Competition have become one this time. In other words, the Divine Ranking Competition will be the focus of the entire world, because his first place will be the dual champion."
When the old man said this, almost all of the Sword Mountain disciples' eyes revealed a trace of yearning and excitement. The Punishment Elders and Deputy Mountain Lord were no exception. The dual champion was too important, the champion of the peak competition, the first place of the God Ranking Competition. Just thinking about it made people excited.
"Master Mountain Master, who will participate in the Divine Ranking Preliminary this time? Who can participate in the Divine Ranking Competition?"
The Punishment Elder frowned slightly, cupped his fists, and asked in a deep voice.
Hearing that, all the disciples of the Sword Mountain became spirited. Everyone focused their attention on the old man. No matter who the Mountain Master asked to participate, they would not have the slightest doubt, because the Mountain Master was the most impartial and the most accurate in judging people, even though it was a bit regretful.
The old man knew what the Punishment Elder meant. He wanted to fix the list so that the disciples of Sword Mountain would not think about it all day and neglect their cultivation.
"This time, there are a total of three spots for the Divine Ranking Preliminary. They are Chen Zhan, Xian Ling'er, and..."
At this point, the old man turned his gaze to Lin Zhetian, who was standing behind Lin Feng, and shouted, "Lin Zhetian."
"Phew... So I am here?" Although Lin Zhetian's expression did not change much when he heard the Mountain Master's name, he was still quite happy in his heart. After all, this was a way to prove himself to the entire Divine Land, and now that his parents were here, he naturally did not want to fall behind.
Lin Feng was very clear in his heart that the old man would definitely give Lin Zhetian such a slot. After all, a disciple at the third level of Holy Spiritual Emperor had defeated Tu Su, who was the head of the top ten chief disciples at the sixth level of Holy Spiritual Emperor, so Lin Zhetian naturally had the qualification to do so.
However, what surprised Lin Feng was that there was actually Chen Zhan among them. Could it be that Chen Zhan's strength had also increased quite a bit?
He still remembered that during the Peak Competition of the East Continent's Profound Hall, Chen Zhan's strength was slightly weaker than his. Now that he had broken through two levels in a row, his strength had naturally increased a lot.
As for the last Xian Ling'er, Lin Feng was not sure. However, since she was sent by the Sword Mountain to participate in the Divine Ranking Preliminary Competition, her strength should not be weak. Moreover, from her name, it could be seen that she was a girl.
"Not among the disciples of the Sword Mountain who are participating in the God Ranking. Not even among the elders. Cough, cough. Because of your age..."
When the old man mentioned the Divine Ranking Competition again, his face revealed a trace of embarrassment. In the entire Sword Mountain, there was not a single person who could participate in the Divine Ranking Competition, which made him feel a little guilty. However, as the Mountain Master, he knew very well that the Sword Mountain was currently facing a situation where there was not enough manpower.
If he wanted to break this situation as soon as possible, he needed Lin Zhetian. Chen Zhan and the other disciples could rise up as soon as possible and bring glory to Sword Mountain.
Hearing the Mountain Master's words, many of the disciples were disappointed. Everyone looked a little dejected, but there were also some disciples who began to whisper. Finally, there were a few disciples who shouted loudly.
"Mountain Master, does Elder Lin Feng not count?"
"Yeah, Elder Lin Feng is young and has outstanding strength. How could he not participate in the Divine Ranking Competition?"
"Please let Elder Lin Feng participate, Mountain Master."
"That's right, Mountain Master. Please let Elder Lin Feng participate and bring glory to my Sword Mountain."
Following the sporadic shouts, a few hundred thousand disciples of Sword Mountain actually shouted out Lin Feng's name at the same time, creating a butterfly effect. The Mountain Master could not help but raise his eyebrows slightly. Although the shouts of more than a hundred thousand people could not shake the earth or shake the mountains, it was still deafening.
However, what made the old man even more surprised was that Lin Feng, who had only arrived at the Sword Mountain for a few days, had actually won the trust of all the disciples of the Sword Mountain?
The old man glanced at Lin Feng with a smile. In the end, he couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh and said, "Elder Lin Feng, do you want to represent the Sword Mountain in the competition?"
"Of course, I would be willing, but since you didn't mention me participating, I should be able to participate, right?" Lin Feng smiled slightly, then looked at the old man with a trace of ridicule in his eyes.
Hearing this, the old man nodded and said, "That's right, because you killed Feng Yiyuan and entered the 27th place of the God Ranking. Since you are on the God Ranking, you naturally have the right to participate in the competition. You don't need to occupy the quota of the Sword Mountain, but if you ..."
"Alright, Senior. I am willing to represent the Sword Mountain in the competition." Without waiting for the old man to finish speaking, Lin Feng straightforwardly told him his inner decision, which made the old man overjoyed.
What the old man looked forward to the most was Lin Feng representing the Sword Mountain in the competition. This way, at least the Sword Mountain would not lose face. Now that Lin Feng was willing, he would naturally begin.
"Haha, alright. We will rest for a day and set off the day after tomorrow, heading straight for the Duhu Mansion."
...
Time passed very quickly, and it was soon time for the Divine Ranking Preliminary. Before this, Lin Feng and Meng Qing had a big battle, and the result was that many people were so shocked that their jaws dropped. With the help of the High-Grade Divine Imperial Artifact, Meng Qing was actually able to fight Lin Feng to a draw with the Thousand Ice Feather Fan.
Of course, this might also be Lin Feng's intention. After all, only when the two of them fought to a draw would Meng Qing be able to enter the God Ranking and have the chance to participate in the competition.
Meng Qing wanted to represent the only Snow Domain Inheritor to participate in the Divine Ranking Competition, and now that she had tied with Lin Feng, Meng Qing's ranking was also at the twenty-seventh place.
Although the Divine Ranking Competition had not yet begun, anyone was allowed to challenge the people on the old God Ranking. Those who succeeded could replace the former to participate in the competition, and those who lost would be kicked out of the Divine Ranking instead of being moved backward. It could be seen how cruel it was.
On this day, the Sword Mountain sent out a shocking team to participate in the Divine Ranking Preliminary Competition. Lin Feng and Meng Qing naturally followed the team. After all, their son was participating in the competition, so they would not fall behind.
Outside of this, Lin Zhetian's mountain guardian elder followed closely behind him. Lin Zhetian used these two days of battle experience and comprehended the Demon Luo Brahma Art, and actually broke through to the fourth level of Holy Spirit Emperor, causing countless people to exclaim.
It was a terrible blow to be with a cultivation freak.
The Punishment Elder and a Deputy Mountain Lord also followed, but this Deputy Mountain Lord was not Deng Jia, but Jian Yan, perhaps to avoid the conflict between Deng Jia and Lin Feng.
Chen Zhan and Xian Ling'er finally showed up. What surprised Lin Feng was that Chen Zhan's strength had actually reached the peak of the sixth level of Holy Spiritual Emperor, and was actually one and a half levels higher than before.
Xian Ling'er was indeed a girl, and very beautiful. Although she was not as stunning as Meng Qing, she was still a peerless beauty, and her pink dress was even more delicate.
However, what made Lin Feng's gaze strange was that Xian Ling'er seemed to be looking at her son, Lin Zhetian, with a complicated expression in her eyes.
Lin Feng could guess this kind of gaze at a glance. Meng Qing was even more meticulous, and at the end, the corner of her mouth curled into a brilliant smile.
At noon, the sun was shining brightly. The white clouds faded, and the entire air gave off a comfortable feeling. The Duhu Mansion had also arrived.
"This is the Duhu Mansion?"
