"This is a pure Dragon Roar!"
"This lad’s swordsmanship can actually evoke a Dragon Roar!"
"With his sword comes the Dragon Roar; this lad actually has Dragon Might. What exactly is his origin!"
The Hall Master of the Battle Hall watched Chu Fengmian, his lips silently moving in awe.
Dragons, in the world, are a symbol of nobility, representing supreme power.
"Genius" in the Nine Domains is referred to as "Dragon among Men."
And now, Chu Fengmian, at the moment of drawing his sword, had actually caused a Dragon Roar, an event that even the Wu Sheng Academy had never before seen.
"This lad, in the future, is definitely our Wu Sheng Academy’s true hope. Compared to him, Zhi Lingtian is nothing."
The Hall Master of the Battle Hall was firmly convinced of this thought.
"This lad must be pulled into our Battle Hall. In doing so, the next head of the academy is very likely to be one of our own."
Such thoughts were not unique to the Hall Master of the Battle Hall. The Hall Masters of the Martial Hall and Dueling Hall shared nearly identical ambitions.
They were determined to recruit Chu Fengmian at any cost.
Amidst the Dragon’s Roar sound, Chu Fengmian’s Sword Edge stirred.
His Sword Qi, as if transformed into a true dragon, charged towards the phantom, opening its bloodthirsty maw in a fierce gulp.
The phantom, almost without time to react, was already devoured by the Sword Qi true dragon.
The fiftieth-level phantom was also slain by Chu Fengmian.
"How terrifying, is this Chu Fengmian’s true strength?"
"Was the strength that Chu Fengmian once showcased just a concealment?"
With the shadow of the third tier of Divine Sea Realm slain so effortlessly by Chu Fengmian, the Chu Fengmian they now saw seemed entirely different from before.
This was the true strength of Chu Fengmian.
Everything previous was merely Chu Fengmian’s concealment.
"Fiftieth-One Layer!"
Chu Fengmian defeated the phantom and once again advanced to the fifty-first layer.
Now, with three drops of ancient battle dragon’s essence blood stirred within him, he wanted to see just how far he could go with this ancient battle dragon’s essence blood.
The fifty-first layer’s phantom, looking at Chu Fengmian, murmured to itself.
"To have come this far is truly surprising."
"Enough talk, let’s fight."
Chu Fengmian looked at the phantom, no time for idle words.
His Sword Edge moved once again.
A chilling killing intent enveloped the Sword Edge, so intense it felt as though one was plunged into destruction itself.
Sword passes, man falls.
The fifty-first layer’s phantom was still slain by a sword strike from Chu Fengmian.
Ascending relentlessly, the phantoms of the fifty-second and fifty-third layers were all slain by Chu Fengmian.
Now he had reached the sixtieth layer.
And this time, Chu Fengmian was to face the shadow of the Fourth Tier Divine Sea Realm.
The whole arena was silent as the grave.
No one dared guess the outcome of Chu Fengmian’s battle anymore, because their countless guesses had been wrong time and time again.
Chu Fengmian was simply not someone who could be judged by conventional wisdom.
Battling across six realms was essentially an impossibility, but for Chu Fengmian, all impossibilities could potentially become possible.
"Five Elements Spirit!"
In front of Chu Fengmian, the sixtieth floor’s spectral figure shouted angrily.
Five elemental spirits manifested together.
This specter of the fourth level of Divine Sea realm was several times more terrifying in power than that of the third level.
These five elemental spirits, each with the strength of the fourth level of the Divine Sea realm, meant that Chu Fengmian was virtually facing the siege of five Martial Artists of equal power.
A tremendous pressure bore down on Chu Fengmian.
It was as if it aimed to crush him utterly.
"Kid, just give up, you’ve done really well to get this far."
The spectral figure shook its head.
In this remote kingdom, the appearance of a prodigy like Chu Fengmian was already enough to surprise him.
But making it to the sixtieth floor was the ultimate limit.
To go any further was absolutely impossible.
Seeing Chu Fengmian being suppressed, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Chu Fengmian was fated to be defeated after all.
"Chu Fengmian is finally going to lose."
"The sixtieth floor, this record, will probably stand unbroken in our Academy of Martial Excellency for a hundred years," they thought.
Although Chu Fengmian was about to lose, to everyone else, his loss was already something to look up to.
Challenging up to the sixtieth floor and then losing.
Let alone Chu Fengmian, who was just a newcomer, even some of the Inner Sect Disciples and Core Disciples of the Academy of Martial Excellency might not be able to reach such heights.
This achievement was one that countless Martial Artists envied and coveted.
Among the crowd, a middle-aged man slowly stepped forward, approached the thousand-zhang tower, looked at Chu Fengmian, and shouted.
"Chu Fengmian, whether you win or lose this battle, our Martial Hall will always welcome you!"
The Hall Master of Martial Hall bellowed, his words exploding like thunder in everyone’s minds.
All eyes turned to the Hall Master of Martial Hall.
"Hall Master Wu Cangqiong!"
One of the three great halls of the Academy of Martial Excellency, one of its most powerful forces, was where countless disciples dreamed of joining.
And now Hall Master Wu Cangqiong of the Martial Hall was actually extending an olive branch to Chu Fengmian proactively.
Shock, along with envy, was clear on the faces of the multitude.
Without a doubt, the Martial Hall was a place all disciples of the Academy of Martial Excellency yearned to enter, yet the Martial Hall rarely recruited Disciples – only those of exceptionally high caliber who took the initiative to undergo their assessments could join.
There was a time when Hall Master Wu Cangqiong of the Martial Hall would take the initiative to offer this olive branch to a newcomer.
Despite currently offending the two major families, the Chu and Cheng families, which made him a hot potato, if Chu Fengmian were to truly join the Martial Hall,
neither the Chu nor the Cheng family would dare to retaliate against Chu Fengmian; even these two great families wouldn’t dare to openly confront the Martial Hall, for it represented the genuinely ancient and strong power of the Academy of Martial Excellency.
It signified the profound history and prosperity of the Academy.
Joining the Martial Hall would be a real step to heaven for Chu Fengmian.
And while the crowd was still in shock, two more middle-aged men emerged from among the people.
These two middle-aged men also emanated an extremely terrifying aura; their strength was not even slightly inferior to Hall Master Wu Cangqiong.
