Chapter 1969

When these words were spoken, the entire venue fell into a dead silence.

Many heaven-proud sons seemed as if they had been petrified, looking somewhat dull and bewildered.

Then, after reacting, they gasped, their eyes filled with a thick sense of shock.

"Did I hear that right? A Sixth-Rank Merit?"

"This is too exaggerated!"

"The commander who introduced the situation of the Three Sovereigns Barrier to us earlier seems to have attained a Sixth-Rank Merit."

"That means the Young Master of the Yun Clan could now serve as a commander of the World-Suppressing Army?"

"My heavens..."

Countless exclamations of surprise arose.

Although many knew that what Jun Xiaoyao was best at was creating shock and miracles.

But seeing it with their own eyes, the feeling was different.

"Worthy of being the Young Master..."

Yun Xuanxu also sighed with a smile.

The performance of him and the young kings of the imperial clans, such as Xiahou Shenzang, was already considered stunning.

Yet Jun Xiaoyao still managed to suppress them by a head.

Xiahou Shenzang's expression was also becoming difficult to maintain.

Previously, he had thought that the 72nd Squad could be preserved so completely.

Was it because Jun Xiaoyao and the others had hidden somewhere later on?

Now it seemed that he had indeed overthought it.

Could one obtain a Sixth-Rank Merit by hiding in one place?

Moreover, this merit was recorded through the Merit Token and then evaluated by the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror.

So it was impossible for there to be any loopholes or errors.

"Worthy of being the Young Master of the Yun Clan..."

The several veteran elders present also sighed repeatedly.

Arriving at the Three Sovereigns Barrier for the first time and establishing a Sixth-Rank Merit was truly stunning.

The saying "a tiger father has no dog son" is exactly this.

And that Zi Teng's expression was somewhat unnatural.

He had been instigated by the Ziyan Demon Young Master to assign Jun Xiaoyao to the most cannon-fodder-like squad, wanting to test his capabilities.

Now, the test was complete.

But the result caused all directions to tremble.

Instead, it bolstered Jun Xiaoyao's prestige.

It is estimated that the Ziyan Demon Young Master is also drumming in his heart, perhaps unable to grasp the situation.

At this moment, Jun Xiaoyao suddenly said: "By the way, seniors, this junior has another discovery that might have a certain impact on the battle situation."

As he spoke, Jun Xiaoyao took out an object.

It was precisely the forest-white bone bead he had obtained.

Jun Xiaoyao used magic power to isolate the aura of the forest-white bone bead.

Otherwise, the eerie aura within it would likely spread.

"This..."

Upon seeing the forest-white bone bead Jun Xiaoyao took out.

Those several veteran elders all widened their eyes, looking incredulous.

"Dark Ancient Artifact!"

The several veteran elders couldn't help but exclaim in shock in unison.

"Dark Ancient Artifact?"

Jun Xiaoyao revealed confusion.

He was indeed not very knowledgeable about some situations in the No-Man's Land.

This item he brought back seemed to have some background?

A veteran elder impatiently stepped forward, took the forest-white bone bead, and examined it carefully.

"No, it is not a true Dark Ancient Artifact, it only possesses a portion of the eerie aura and power of a Dark Ancient Artifact."

*Immortal Wood Strange Fate*

"Perhaps it is an existence condensed through the power of a Dark Ancient Artifact."

The breathing of several veteran elders was somewhat rapid.

Although this forest-white bone bead was not a true Dark Ancient Artifact, it had immense research value.

"Young Master of the Yun Clan, where did you obtain this item?"

A veteran elder looked at Jun Xiaoyao.

Jun Xiaoyao also simply told them the situation.

After listening, the several veteran elders took another deep breath.

Jun Xiaoyao had actually done such a dangerous thing all by himself.

And the surrounding heaven-proud sons were already dumbfounded after hearing it.

How did it feel like what Jun Xiaoyao did had already exceeded the scope of training?

"Seniors, what exactly is this so-called Dark Ancient Artifact?"

Jun Xiaoyao asked sincerely.

A veteran elder took a deep breath, his tone solemn.

"The so-called Dark Ancient Artifact is the sacred artifact worshipped by the Black Calamity tribes. It is rumored to be related to the source of the Black Calamity."

"This thing has a very significant karmic background."

"This bone bead, although not a true Dark Ancient Artifact, should have been condensed by the power of a Dark Ancient Artifact."

"It also has great research and reference value."

It could be said that the forest-white bone bead Jun Xiaoyao brought back was a great merit.

Just at this moment, Jun Xiaoyao's Merit Token trembled again, and brilliant radiance bloomed.

"A Fifth-Rank Merit, this is indeed reasonable."

A veteran elder nodded slightly upon seeing this.

The Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror was still very fair.

The item Jun Xiaoyao brought back was indeed very valuable.

"Hiss, a Fifth-Class Merit?"

"Damn, this is going to defy the heavens!"

"With Young Master Yun Xiao's merit, wouldn't it be a breeze for him to be a commander?"

The prodigies present gasped.

If a Sixth-Class Merit was already enough to make people marvel.

Then a Fifth-Class Merit was something that left people with no choice but to be convinced.

Even Xiahou Shenzang fell silent, having nothing to say.

On the other side, Huangfu Jing of the Huangfu Imperial Clan also covered her small mouth with her jade hand, her beautiful eyes filled with surprise.

A Fifth-Class Merit is a level that even some veteran commanders of the Boundary-Suppressing Army cannot reach.

Not to mention that Jun Xiaoyao is a newcomer who just arrived.

She asked herself, if her cousin came here, could he obtain a Fifth-Class Merit?

Huangfu Jing did not know.

"Fifth-Class Merit..."

Even that Zi Teng felt his eyes trembling.

He suddenly felt that the Ziyan Demon Young Master might have done something wrong.

To have provoked such a great god.

A veteran elder said to Jun Xiaoyao: "Young Master Yun Xiao, you have truly performed a great service."

"However, next, us old fogies still need to study these bone beads."

Jun Xiaoyao smiled and nodded.

These few veteran elders were about to leave.

That Zi Teng also wanted to follow and leave silently.

However, a strange look flashed in Jun Xiaoyao's eyes.

The next moment, he suddenly struck, the power of laws intertwining to form a giant palm, directly suppressing Zi Teng.

This scene was too sudden; no one had expected it.

Even Zi Teng had not expected it.

Boom!

Zi Teng was directly slapped onto the ground, spitting out a large mouthful of blood, with no telling how many of his bones shattered.

Although he was an elder of the Ziyan Qilin Clan, his cultivation was also at the Chaos Dao Venerable realm.

But now, what did a Chaos Dao Venerable count for to Jun Xiaoyao?

He could naturally suppress him easily.

"Young Master of the Yun Clan, what are you doing? This is the Three Emperors' Rampart, internal fighting is forbidden!"

Zi Teng shouted loudly while struggling desperately.

But he simply could not break free from Jun Xiaoyao's suppression.

Jun Xiaoyao stepped directly onto Zi Teng's head, crushing him into the soil.

But he did not kill him directly.

"What this young master is doing, don't you know clearly in your heart?"

"If you provoke me, you must be mentally prepared for this."

When Jun Xiaoyao did these things, his face still carried a faint smile.

But this, instead, made people even more afraid.

Lu Xingling watched, also somewhat surprised.

Jun Xiaoyao treated them with extreme gentleness and approachability.

But toward those who provoked him, he was like a smiling devil.

But Lu Xingling did not feel repulsed; distinguishing between kindness and enmity is the true character of a hero.
