No one dared to make a move against Shi Feng anymore; they could only watch helplessly as he entered the palace.
"Next one." The middle-aged man said indifferently.
Many rushed forward, unable to be the first to enter the palace, but they could strive to be the second or third.
"Ten at a time." The middle-aged man said, then struck out.
Immediately, ten people were sent flying simultaneously, crashing to the ground.
But not one of them could get up.
Hiss, at this moment everyone realized how extraordinary it was that Shi Feng could withstand a strike.
One should know, among these ten were a few Peerless Great Abilities, even if their cultivation was reduced, they should still be elites of the Heaven Connecting Road.
"Senior, I am Ji Liang from Beacon Fire Mountain in Jiuhua Immortal Domain, may I ask for your esteemed name?" A young man stepped forward.
What, Jiuhua Immortal Domain?
This young man is actually a Celestial Guest?
The crowd was shocked, moreover, this person was too low-key; who would know he was from the Immortal Realm before he revealed his identity?
The middle-aged man glanced at the young man, revealing a disdainful smile: "What, want to cozy up to me? Ha ha, are you worthy? Truly an idiot, thinking Ding Lingfeng said his things could only be contested by Great Sacrificial Heaven means everything would be sent to contend?"
"Bah, no way will I let Ding Lingfeng have his way, anyone who can take one hit from me can compete!"
Ji Liang couldn’t help but twitch his mouth, he wanted to retort but the circumstances were overpowering, forcing him to suppress it.
He took a deep breath, preparing himself fully—
Boom, at this moment, the middle-aged man already swung a palm over.
Ji Liang cursed internally, but had to raise his palms to meet the strike.
Bam, he was instantly sent flying, crashing heavily onto the ground, yet managed to stagger back to his feet, swaying.
"One, two, three, you’re out." The middle-aged man waved dismissively.
Ji Liang almost spat out a mouthful of blood, was there anyone who counted this fast?
"What, not accepting?" The middle-aged man said coldly, "If you don’t agree, take another move, if you can block it, I’ll let you pass."
Ji Liang had no words, damn, take another hit?
He didn’t want to die!
He withdrew to one side, even if he were to try again, he’d wait until he was fully recovered.
"Quickly, quickly, waste more of my time and I’ll thrash you all!" The middle-aged man’s attitude was extremely harsh.
Immediately someone else stepped forward to withstand the middle-aged man’s strike.
But before long, the middle-aged man became impatient.
"Those who can’t bear my presence, get out immediately!" he shouted, and swoosh, a terrifying aura burst out from his body, instantly causing many to groan, fall to the ground, and shake involuntarily.
This alone reduced the numbers by at least eighty percent.
The middle-aged man wore a satisfied look: "Much better! Damn, why are you still stunned, get the hell out or I’ll kill you!"
Those who were knocked down quickly scrambled up to run away, this guy was capricious, killing without hesitation, moreover, he was an immortal, would he hesitate in striking?
"Quick, quick, quick." The middle-aged man urged.
"Senior, allow me to try." A young man came forward, looking ordinary, yet possessing an indescribable charm, growing more pleasing the more one looked.
The middle-aged man glanced at him, raising an eyebrow: "Kid, you’re remarkable!"
This was the first time he praised someone, surprising everyone.
"Shi Zhong!" Everyone recognized and murmured softly.
Once the first of the Great Sacrificial Heaven, but after a battle with Shi Hao, the debate over who was stronger between the two arose.
Speaking of potential, Shi Hao should be stronger, but until Shi Hao surpasses Shi Zhong, it remains potential, not fact.
Therefore, Shi Zhong naturally remained the exceedingly talented super-genius, absolutely not inferior to Shi Hao.
Among the crowd, Venerable Sanhua felt complex emotions.
Another enemy, yet despite being so close, he didn’t dare act.
This feeling was truly... a mix of emotions.
"Senior, please." Shi Zhong was very humble.
The middle-aged man said no more, raised his palm, and struck at Shi Zhong.
Shi Zhong lightly shouted, swung his palm to meet the middle-aged man.
In a clash, Shi Zhong immediately slid back.
Unlike others, he wasn’t sent flying; he slid back over twenty yards with his feet grounded.
"Whew!" Shi Zhong exhaled a breath of earth-yellow air, forming into the shape of a tortoise.
"Interesting." The middle-aged man nodded, "Young fellow, your opportunities are extraordinary, alright, you’ve passed."
Shi Zhong bowed slightly: "Thank you."
Then, he strode towards the palace.
He was the second to enter the palace, and his performance was far superior to Shi Zhong.
This demonstrated that although his cultivation wasn’t as strong as Shi Feng’s, in a battle of the same rank, he should far exceed Shi Feng.
Subsequently, many stepped forward to withstand the middle-aged man’s strike.
Most failed, but a very few succeeded, and whenever such a person appeared, Mo Bu was stirred into a great uproar.
You know, even most Peerless Great Abilities couldn’t take one strike from the middle-aged man, yet those who could achieve it were incredibly outstanding, with a future bright and promising?
However, those who passed were strangers to everyone—except for Shi Zhong, no one else was recognized.
Recalling Ji Liang earlier, everyone could guess these people very likely came from the Immortal Realm.
This made everyone discontented.
Ding Lingfeng’s Divine Storehouse was left in the Mortal Realm, clearly meant for those from the Mortal Realm, yet now Immortal Realm people came to intervene; what does that count for?
However, with the middle-aged man standing in the way, only those who took his strike could enter the palace, so no matter how dissatisfied everyone was, they could only watch helplessly.
The efficiency of the middle-aged man was high, as there were fewer and fewer people present, while only an hour had passed.
"Quickly, quickly." He urged again, seeming to still find it too slow.
"Let’s go." Shi Hao said, advancing with Weng Nanqing and the Purple Gold Rat.
"Huh?" The middle-aged man’s gaze swept them, pausing on the Purple Gold Rat, "This rat is indeed odd."
The Purple Gold Rat smugly said: "Indeed, I’m one of a kind, unparalleled across heaven and earth!"
The middle-aged man casually pointed, bam, the Purple Gold Rat rolled suddenly, tumbling over a hundred times before stopping miserably.
"You cheated, you didn’t say we started!" The Purple Gold Rat was furious.
However, such terrifying defense left everyone aghast.
This rat is not just odd, it’s an outright monster!
