<h4>Chapter 994: The Hidden Trump Card</h4>
“The Asura Race’s Young Chief, Lan Shaobai,es to offer congrattions!”
“The Mountain Giant Race’s Ren Kongjuees to offer congrattions!”
The two ancient-race genius experts handed over their invitations, and someone announced their arrival in a loud voice.
This annunciation immediately attracted many gazes, as these two were considered peak outstanding talents of the younger generation.
Unexpectedly, these two showed up at the Martial God Pce’s King conferral ceremony.
After them, more famous outstanding young talents appeared one by one. There was the Young Sect Master of the Heavenly Starry Ocean’s Profound Water Sect and even a mysterious person from the Cyclic Astral Pce.
Then, the Peacock King’s descendant and the Spirit Fox King’s adoptive daughter and disciple made a personal trip here, attracting everyone’s attention.
Greetings and congrattions rang out steadily. There were also major characters from the Ghost Domain, Corpse Domain, and Profound Domain. Descendants of Sovereign Martial Emperors came one after another, giving rise to waves of surprised exmations.
Xia Houjue, who was standing on the tall tform, frowned slightly. He was very much aware that his reputation could not attract so many people over.
“That fellow’s reputation really spread far and wide. However, this is fine as well. I will use your reputation to boost my King conferral ceremony.”
At the VIP seats of the Supreme Sky Sect, Yue Chenxi and Gong Yangyu looked everywhere, trying to find that familiar white figure. However, they always withdrew their gazes with disappointment every time.
Shui Lingling, who sat between them, bit her lip, frowning. “Why is this fellow so worrying? If he still does note, it will be toote.”
In a few other ces, some of the people who were on friendly terms with Xiao Chen revealed disappointment and worry in their eyes when they did not see Xiao Chen on the tall tform.
Suddenly, there was a thunderous explosion. It was the Deity Race’s Di Wuque and Tian Youxiing to offer their congrattions.
Before the eyes of therge crowd, Di Wuque revealed a confident smile on his face as he went to the VIP seats for the Deity Race together with Tian Youxi.
Unexpectedly, Di Wuque came as well. His attendance was outside of several people’s expectations.
After looking around the tall tform and not seeing Xiao Chen, Di Wuque calmed down somewhat and took his seat with Tian Youxi beside him.
After about fifteen minutes, the ck-d old man hosting the ceremony noticed that all the important guests already arrived. He said in a rush, “Thank you all, honored guests, foring from afar to witness our Martial God Pce’s Young Master Xia Houjue being conferred the White Tiger King in this ceremony today.”
“As the auspicious hour has alreadye, I dere that the King conferral ceremony will now officially begin!”
Right after the ck-d old man said that, a giant salvo of loud rumbling booms burst forth from the middle of the za.
Fireworks exploded into a glorious disy of rainbow-colored sparks falling from the sky.
These were artificial mysterious phenomena. They required a lot of resources to make and were normally just five-colored fireworks. This time, for the sake of the King conferral ceremony, the White Emperor City did not stint on the resources, producing the majestic and beautiful seven-colored fireworks.
When the sparks fell, they looked gorgeous.
However, several people in the za looked very anxious, unable to appreciate this beauty.
“Who is it?! How dare you barge into the Tianwu za?!”
Just when Xiao Bai, Shui Lingling, and some others could no longer sit still, something strange happened. Three loud shouts came from outside the za.
Three puissant Martial God Pce great grandmaster-level Martial Sages unleashed their killing Qi and soared into the air. They wanted to immediately kill this person who was trying to barge into the za.
A vague white figure hovered in the midst of the spark-filled air.
As the sparks showered down, the variety of colors looked rich and diverse.
Who was barging into the Tianwu za?
Which person did not know that the Martial God Pce, which had many experts, was in charge of this ce? How bold was that person to dare to cause trouble here?
The resounding shouts attracted everyone’s attention. All the outstanding talents and sect experts looked over.
The three Martial God Pce great grandmaster-level Martial Sages were very vicious with their moves, not holding back at all.
These three great grandmaster-level Martial Sages used their best Martial Techniques, causing the sky to tremble and light to appear everywhere. They locked down on the space, sending the sparks flying all around and strong winds blowing.
An indistinct White Tiger image appeared behind their backs—the Holy Beast Martial Spirit. These three people were great grandmaster-level Martial Sages of the White Emperor City.
“This person is going to die.”
The boundless sparks and winds, the storm in the air veiled the new arrival. Only a vague silhouette was visible.
Although no one knew who hade, these three great grandmaster-level Martial Sages of the Martial God Pce were from a Holy Land, the White Emperor City.
These three great grandmaster-level Martial Sages attacked with all their strength at lightning speed. The aura and might they held were sufficient to kill an ordinary great grandmaster-level Martial Sage.
Based on the arrival’s age and appearance, as well as aura, he did not seem to be a great grandmaster-level Martial Sage. How could he survive?
“Qiang!”
However, just as the three’s Martial Techniques neared that person, a saber hum resounded. A bright saber light eclipsed the zing sun in the sky.
Night suddenly fell. There was only a saber light that looked as bright and resplendent as the moon.
wless night, a perfect and wless moon.
An explosion rang out in the air, and the moonlight disappeared. The three great grandmaster-level Martial Sages went flying back one kilometer.
Everyone in the entire za was shocked. One person faced three great grandmaster-level Martial Sages and survived. Moreover, this person knocked back the three. Who exactly was this person?
The white figure slowly flew over. His clothes and hair fluttered as he crossed the sparks filling the air and slowly headed towards the tall tform.
“Stop him!”
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”
Figures shot up from the ground, the weakest of which were grandmaster-level Martial Sages. Many were great grandmaster-level Martial Sages.
If an outsider managed to barge into the King conferral ceremony, that would be a great joke.
“Ding ding dang dang!” As the figure’s hair fluttered, saber hums rang out like the twangs of a zither. A wondrous melody resounded in the air as boundless saber intent reverberated in the sky.
That white figure gently shed past the Martial Sages that shot up.
As that figure came nearer, his countenance became clear. Several people’s expressions changed as they cried out in shock, “Xiao Chen!”
After passing thest great grandmaster-level Martial Sage in the way, Xiao Chennded on the tall tform. Then, he flung his arm out and tossed his identity medallion to the old man beside Xia Houjue.
Neither haughty nor humble, Xiao Chen said in a calm tone, “The Supreme Sky Sect’s Xiao Chen is here to be conferred King. I am slightlyte. I apologize for that.”
When the ck-d old man saw the name on the identity medallion, his expression turned dark. Within the Martial God Pce, he was the trusted subordinate of the White Emperor City’s Holy Master. Otherwise, he would not have been given the responsibility of hosting this King conferral ceremony.
Xiao Chen’s calm words verified his identity, kicking off a hugemotion in the za.
“It really is Xiao Chen. He is really here!”
“It is not just a rumor. Did the Deity Race’s ten great grandmaster-level Martial Sages injure him? Why does he not look injured at all?”
At the VIP seats for the Supreme Sky Sect, Shui Lingling revealed a gentle smile and heaved a sigh of relief.
It is good that Xiao Chen came. As long as he lives, there is always hope.
Xiao Bai, who was beside Kong Yuan and Yuan Xu, smiled so broadly that her eyes were reduced to crescent slits.
The Ghost Race’s Qing Cheng smiled faintly. This fellow did not disappoint her in the end; he finally managed to arrive.
The Full Moon Pavilion’s Feng Xingsheng, the Ximen n’s Ximen Bao, and the battle-realm genius Niu Deng and many others were all shocked, not expecting this development.
After all the danger and obstructions, Xiao Chen still made it to the King conferral ceremony on schedule.
Some were in shock, some were disappointed, some rejoiced, and some raged.
The Deity Race’s Di Wuque’s face sank. Xiao Chen was alive, and there was no news of the Deity Race’s great grandmaster-level Martial Sages. There could only be one conclusion.
Those great grandmaster-level Martial Sages who erected Deity Statues had all died at Xiao Chen’s hands.
At the Corpse Race’s VIP seats, Xing Jue, the personal disciple of the Corpse God Pce’s Heaven Punishing Corpse God, asked the Underworld Fire Sovereign’s descendant Wei Hua, “This person is Xiao Chen? He is the one who defeated you and Long Fei as well as the Iron Hand Sovereign’s descendant, Kui Dou?”
In the Corpse God Pce, aside from the Corpse God, there were four other Sovereign Martial Emperors, who each also controlled one faction: the Underworld Fire Sovereign, the White Bone Sovereign, the Death me Sovereign, and the Ghost Fire Sovereign.
In the past, there had also been the Iron Hand Sovereign, who focused on cultivating the physical body. However, he had long since left the Corpse God Pce and was not counted among them.
Murderous intent shed in Wei Hua’s eyes as he replied through clenched teeth, “It is him!”
Xing Jue raised an eyebrow, and his lips curled up. He did not say anything; no one could tell what he was thinking.
Xiao Chen’s appearance was unexpected, catching the ck-d old man off guard. He did not know what to say.
“Senior, is my identity fake?”
The ck-d old man recovered his wits and handed the identity medallion back to Xiao Chen. “Your identity is real.”
Xiao Chen asked indifferently, “In that case, can we start the King conferral ceremony?”
Xia Houjue, who was at the side, smiled coldly and said, “You speak so certainly about it. However, whether you can be conferred King or not remains to be seen. In the King conferral ceremony, experts of the same generation can challenge you. If you get beaten up by another, there would not be any need to continue conferring Kingship on you.”
Narrowing his eyes, Xiao Chen turned his head to look at Xia Houjue and smiled. “Brother Xia, you are really confident. How about we exchange pointers first before being conferred Kings?”
At the provocation, Xia Houjue was about to agree. The ck-d old man advised quickly, “Young Master, don’t be rash. Get conferred King first.”
At the same time, the old man sent a voice projection, Don’t make a move on him first. Later, someone else will deal with him. Wait for everyone to offer their congrattions. The Holy Master already made arrangements. We will make him look like a clown first.
Xia Houjue snorted coldly and ignored Xiao Chen. The offering of congrattions was actually apetition of connections.
He was confident that with the status of the White Tiger Holy Master, everyone in the Tianwu Domain would give him face.
Under the pressure of the Holy Master, no one in the Tianwu Domain, aside from the Supreme Sky Sect, woulde and offer Xiao Chen congrattions.
At that time, the unending stream of people congratting him would form a stark contrast to the other side’s lonely situation.
The King conferral ceremony officially began. The ck-d old man started reading out all of Xia Houjue’s aplishments, speaking eloquently and grandly.
“Xia Houjue, one million military merits, making great contributions. The Martial God Pce awards the title White Tiger King. The Martial God Pce also bestows one hundred bottles of Sage Grade Medicinal Pills, one Heaven Ranked Cultivation Technique, one King Grade Secret Treasure, and one set of White Tiger King Armor.”
After speaking about Xia Houjue’s military merits, the ck-d old man went on to list the many rewards that the Martial God Pce was going to give him, all of them worth cities.
Music rang out, and beautiful girls on both sides of the tall tform came in and helped Xia Houjue put on the White Tiger King Armor that was gleaming with light.
“On the orders of Sect Master Qian Yunfeng, the Flowing Cloud Sect congrattes Young Master Xia Houjue on being conferred King and hereby presents a Peak Spirit Vein.”
