No one taking part in the League Of Talents wanted to lose.


    The candidates smiled upon noticing thepetitiveness in the others.


    Suddenly, they realized that someone was missing. They lowered their heads and saw that Wang Teng was still cultivating; he wasn''t unsettled by the announcement. The candidates gave him bitter smiles.


    This fellow is exceptionally calm!


    He could remainposed even at such a moment.


    Just then, Wang Teng opened his eyes. A sharp glint shed past his eyes as he stood up.


    "Thepetition is about to start. Why are y''all still standing here?" Wang Teng was stunned when he saw all the people looking at him.


    Everyone was speechless.


    What right does he have to say this?


    Sonic booms were heard and numerous figures took to the sky, dashing towards the Battle.


    "Let''s go," the Second Prince said.


    "Yes!" the others replied and flew toward the, turning into beams of light.


    At the same time, on the live chat tform—the live broadcasting was resumed and the audience was on fire. The party was on.


    "It''s starting! The second round is finally starting!"


    "Hahaha. Finally, after waiting so long!"


    "I''m so excited!"


    "Quick, show me Wang Teng and the Crown Prince on the screen."


    "There they are! I see Wang Teng!"


    "There''s the Crown Prince! He''s so handsome!"


    "Wang Teng is more handsome!"


    "No, the Crown Prince is more handsome!"


    "We''re adults. Let''s not be so childish about it; I think they''re both handsome."


    Silence.


    "I wonder who''ll be standing at the end of this round, Wang Teng or the Crown Prince."


    "It''ll definitely be the Crown Prince. I dare say that he hasn''t disyed his full strength; Wang Teng is just faster than him."


    "What? How can you say that our Wang Teng is fast? Isn''t it obvious that he has better stamina?"


    "F**k, that sounds a little wrong."


    "Brother, it''s not just a little wrong. It''spletely wrong."


    "I think Wang Teng is stronger. He got first ce in five zones. Would this be an ordinary warrior?


    "I think Wang Teng is stronger. No one is his match."


    "Bulls**t, the Crown Prince is the strongest."


    "F**k, have you forgotten about my Ling Yangxu?"


    "And my Second Prince. My Second Prince got third ce in Zone 1. He''s just behind Wang Teng and the Crown Prince."


    "You''re right, the Second Prince is strong and amiable. He''s my idol."<novelsnext></novelsnext>


    "Gaunt is powerful too. He''s an unpredictable poison-element warrior. This gives him an edge in a duel."


    "I stand with my goddess, Leng Qianxue. Her ice element is truly amazing; she''s a strong candidate for the top ten."


    …


    The audience was excited. They talked about all the talented warriors and cheered for their favorites.


    Everyone had their own pick. For instance, most of the male audience loved Leng Qianxue; neither Wang Teng nor the Crown Prince could enter their vision.


    What a genuine response!


    On the Battle—there was a giant piece ofnd in the middle of the sea. Contrary to the ten forbidden zones, it was a vast ce devoid of star beasts; a suitable location for the arena battle round.


    The entire piece ofnd would be used for the second round!


    The martial warriors entered the scene and floated in the sky. None of themnded.


    Wang Teng and the Second Prince arrived, then sized up the humongous territory. They were surprised and curious.


    Our young hero wasn''t surprised by the expanse, but by how barren it was.


    No matter how dangerous the ten forbidden zones were, they were filled with star beasts and vitality.


    However, that piece ofnd waspletely different from the rest of the. It was spacious; aside from the candidates, there was no other sign of life.


    The grayish brown earth was cracked like spiderwebs. Deep holes caused by meteors were also found.


    The destendscape was a canvas of sorrow, with blood stains sttered across the barren earth.


    A gale blew, sweeping through the dried soil. The participants hovered in the sky, their hair and clothes rustling loudly in the wind.


    "Is that the arena for the battle?"


    "I think so. The entire piece ofnd is their dueling ground."


    "F**k!"


    "This is getting exciting!"


    "They''re not restricting them to a standard arena. They will have the whole ce to fight!"


    "Interesting. Celestial warriors can destroy mountains; restraining them within an arena would have been atrocious."


    "As expected of the League of Talents. This is a huge investment."


    "Amazing. I can''t wait to see them fighting. Let''s get it on!"


    …


    The audience was shocked by the sight of the vast piece ofnd. Enthusiasm burned in their hearts as they stared at the figures hovering above, wishing they could take their ce.


    That was a stage for talents!


    Only the most outstanding geniuses in the Great Qian Empire had the right to step on that grand arena.


    It was an unsurpassable honor!


    The warriors who didn''t pass the elimination round felt jealous by what they were seeing.


    They would have been there, had they passed the first round.


    What a pity!
