"Check, since the start of the Vanguard Selection, what is the highest record on the Lightning Heavenly Road of Laws?"

Inside the Yuanling Tianyang Zhenjun's Mansion, Prince Yuanling Yuan Jiugong ordered.

After a few breaths, the Grand Steward of the Prince's Mansion stepped forward and said softly, "Your Highness, I have checked; the limit of the Lightning Heavenly Road of Laws was created by Jiang Yi a hundred years ago, at the fifty-seventh tier."

"Then tell me, has this Xu Jin reached his limit?" Prince Yuanling Yuan Jiugong asked.

"Your Highness, the people over at the Profound Dao Hall say that this Xu Jin is standing very steadily on the fifty-third tier of the Lightning Heavenly Road of Laws."

Upon hearing this, Prince Yuanling nodded slightly, "If so, then this Xu Jin is likely a formidable rival for my family's Facheng.

Go, check!

I want all the information on this Xu Jin.

All the information from childhood to adulthood, including the information on his family members." Prince Yuanling ordered.

"This old servant obeys."

"My intention is not to become enemies! But to see if there is any possibility of bringing him under my command through his family and relatives, understand?"

"This old servant understands, this old servant will go do it right away."

On the Lightning Heavenly Road of Laws, Xu Jin's phantom stood like a high mountain after the fifty-third tier, instantly making Xu Jin's name spread throughout the entire high-ranking nobility of the Dongxuan Star Realm.

Everyone was inquiring about Xu Jin's situation at the first opportunity.

This tier far exceeded the record of Song Ju, the first place in the Vanguard Selection ten years ago; his talent could be imagined.

The key is that he comes from a small star domain and seems to have no background.

He is a good target for wealthy families to recruit.

As for the wind released by the Yutang Prince's Mansion, it was merely wind released.

And it had not become a fait accompli.

Without trying to make contact, how could one know the result?

Xu Jin, the person involved, was completely unaware of this commotion.

On the contrary, Prince Yutang Zhu Shizhen, who received various feedback, was a bit worried.

【Sister, that group of people inquiring about Xu Jin's news has already reached Chang Lin and Wang Ji; they are just short of inquiring about me. Is there any problem over at the Lianqiao Star Domain?】

【Rest assured, it has already been arranged perfectly. The relevant hands involved have already been sent to the secret realm. Over there, Xu Jin's parents died young, and there are only a few clan relatives. Those few clan relatives have already been personally arranged by me using the Great Dream Heart Method; in their memories, Xu Jin is even more real than the real one.

What you should be most worried about now is that this brother-in-law of yours might fly away!】 Zhu Linxiao said.

Zhu Shizhen absolutely trusted his sister's ability; she was the type of existence who was a strategist who had both ability and means, had a sense of responsibility, and was clear-headed.

But the latter sentence made Zhu Shizhen pleasantly surprised, 【Sister, you agreed.】

【The best option seen so far.】 Zhu Linxiao said indifferently.

【Sister, since you agreed, then let's prepare this matter now; the sooner we show our sincerity, the better.】

【Then you handle it. But you must know, I am now the Eldest Princess of the Yutang Prince's Mansion; I naturally wholeheartedly manage the Yutang Prince's Mansion. If you really marry me, this sister, off, both publicly and privately, my focus will have to leave the Yutang Prince's Mansion.

You know, I am not that kind of stupid woman.】 Zhu Linxiao said.

Seeing the starlight transmission, Prince Yutang Zhu Shizhen was stunned.

According to his sister's character, she really would be like this.

Suddenly, Zhu Shizhen felt a bit hesitant.

Two hours after stepping onto the Spatial Heavenly Road of Laws, Xu Jin had only barely stepped onto the eighth tier.

This result made many powerful figures who were paying attention to Xu Jin move their gazes away.

Many powerful figures themselves were either ninth-tier or tenth-tier Guan Xiaoxing Lords, and their insight was also extraordinary.

One by one, they also understood that Xu Jin's accomplishment in spatial star arts was very limited; at the current speed, it would be considered good if he finally ascended to the twentieth tier.

Naturally, one by one, they reduced their evaluation of Xu Jin slightly.

They were also adjusting their own price tags.

But what they didn't know was that for Xu Jin, it was simply like a mouse falling into a rice jar.

In the eighth-tier Spatial Heavenly Road of Laws, there were six laws that were completely unfamiliar to Xu Jin.

In just these two hours, Xu Jin's spatial law star had already grown significantly.

It changed from second-tier (19) to third-tier (25), which could be called a huge harvest.

It can be said without reservation that even if Xu Jin conquered two small worlds possessing spatial laws, he might not necessarily have such a harvest.

And this was just the harvest from Xu Jin having just stepped onto the Spatial Heavenly Road of Laws for two hours.

Next, Xu Jin still had at least two days of time to harvest.

By then, it would definitely be a huge profit.

And this was only the beginning of Xu Jin's harvest in the Dongxuan Star Realm.

Actually, if Xu Jin did not comprehend spatial laws, he should be able to ascend to above the thirtieth tier on the Spatial Heavenly Road of Laws in a short time.

Or even higher.

Xu Jin's Kongyuan star pattern had already been deduced to the ninth-tier upper, and the Kongxiang star pattern had already been deduced to the ninth-tier mid; this level should be able to far exceed most people here.

He could definitely forcefully withstand the spatial laws and ascend to the thirtieth tier.

But now Xu Jin was using the clumsiest and slowest method; of course, it was also the method with the greatest harvest.

An hour later, Xu Jin ascended to the tenth tier of the Spatial Heavenly Road of Laws.

After ascending to the tenth tier, the speed of comprehension became slower again.

It would take half an hour or even longer to ascend one tier.

When Xu Jin stepped onto the eleventh tier, Li Qingchen had already stepped onto the thirty-fifth tier.

It could be seen that Li Qingchen was almost at his limit, but he was still persisting.

In the void, Tianyang Zhenjun Commander Tian Zhang's gaze swept over Xu Jin, feeling slightly disappointed.

Previously, when he saw Xu Jin give up on making a limit attempt on the Lightning Heavenly Road of Laws, he thought that their Dongxuan Star Realm was going to produce another peerless genius like Jiang Yi.

Unexpectedly, his performance after stepping onto the Spatial Heavenly Road of Laws became very clumsy.

The speed was very slow.

Of course, it just didn't meet Tianyang Zhenjun Commander Tian Zhang's psychological expectations.

The talent Xu Jin displayed was still very formidable.

Especially the spatial talent; even if he could only ascend to the twentieth tier in the end, the improvement to combat power would be relatively large.

Because of this, Tianyang Zhenjun Commander Tian Zhang no longer paid too much attention to Xu Jin.

Instead, he turned to pay attention to other geniuses, such as Yuan Chengfa, Su Xuan, Shen Hui, and others.

And as time entered the second day, this grand selection also became the persistence of the remaining last few dozen geniuses.

It was still the harvest path of those top geniuses.

Some geniuses had already begun to break into a second Heavenly Road of Laws.

They held the same idea as Xu Jin, wanting to get more rewards.

Enlightenment Stones, even among the powerful figures of the Dongxuan Star Realm, were the top-tier cultivation resources.

Being able to get one more piece meant one more benefit.

For example, Lu Zhen of the Bixuan Tianyang Zhenjun's Mansion had already locked his tier at the fifty-second tier and went to break into the Fire Heavenly Road of Laws.

For the powerful figures of the Dongxuan Star Realm, the fire attribute was a must-learn.

Because among the legacies left by the Dongxuan Emperor, the fire attribute was the strongest.

It could even be said that only the fire-attribute lineage possessed the complete legacy to step into the Emperor Realm.

Time passed.

The first round of the Dao Child Selection also reached its end.

There was less than two hours left until the end.

Li Qingchen was the first to discover that something was wrong.

A day ago, when Li Qingchen stepped onto the fortieth tier of the Spatial Heavenly Road of Laws, he was directly blasted off the Spatial Heavenly Road of Laws by spatial laws.

However, he was the first place on the Spatial Heavenly Road of Laws, the kind that was far ahead.

Theoretically, his first place on the Spatial Heavenly Road of Laws was stable.

Because of this, Li Qingchen went to rush the Wind Heavenly Road of Laws; he mainly cultivated spatial star arts and wind star arts, and also wanted to get another portion of Enlightenment Stones.

At this very moment, he had just rushed to the forty-sixth tier on the Wind Heavenly Road of Laws, barely ranking ninth, and then was blasted down by the violent wind laws.

The moment he was blasted down, Li Qingchen immediately looked toward the Spatial Heavenly Road of Laws.

He was very sure he was the first place on the Spatial Heavenly Road of Laws.

Now, he was just looking again to confirm.

But after just one glance, he was stunned.

As if his eyes were playing tricks on him, he rubbed his eyes twice more.

On the Spatial Heavenly Road of Laws, someone had exceeded his record!

Rub again!

That figure was still there!

Forty-second tier! Someone had actually stepped onto the forty-second tier of the Spatial Heavenly Road of Laws.

In an instant, Li Qingchen's heart felt empty; his first place was gone!

First place was gone!

His expression instantly became gloomy.

He had the feeling of being robbed.

Also because the Dao Child Selection was about to end, many powerful figures also came to see the final results.

After all, apart from the first half of the day being quite exciting, the last two days of this Dao Child Selection were relatively dull.

It was just watching a crowd of top geniuses climb tiers at a snail's pace; it was too boring.

Most people would not stare at the spot for three days.

Even Prince Yutang Zhu Shizhen was like this.

He had a special status and could leave the Dongxuan Dao Palace, but he used these two days to arrange and prepare for other matters.

The duck in hand must not fly away.

At this time, nearing the end, he rushed over in a hurry; besides wanting to congratulate Xu Jin, it was also to completely take this duck in hand, Xu Jin, into his pocket.

The first moment he rushed over, Zhu Shizhen immediately searched for Xu Jin's figure.

With one glance, Zhu Shizhen's expression trembled slightly, "My goodness, no way."

【Sister, Xu Jin got first place on the Spatial Heavenly Road of Laws.】

【I have already seen it!】 Zhu Linxiao's expression was very calm, calm but contained an indescribable excitement.

At the same time, Tianyang Zhenjun Commander Tian Zhang's gaze toward Xu Jin was also incomparably pleasantly surprised.

Over these two days, he inadvertently discovered that after Xu Jin ascended to the thirtieth tier of the Spatial Heavenly Road of Laws, he was still steadily moving forward.

While greatly amazed, he began to continue paying attention to Xu Jin again.

Unexpectedly, at this final moment, this Xu Jin actually took first place on the Spatial Heavenly Road of Laws.

"Lightning and Spatial Heavenly Roads of Laws double first place; this Xu Jin's talent is already not much worse than Jiang Yi's!

He can be focused on for cultivation in the future!" Tianyang Zhenjun Commander Tian Zhang already had an idea in his heart.

At the same time, on the Spatial Heavenly Road of Laws, Xu Jin took another step and stepped onto the forty-third tier.

Spatial laws surged over; only one spatial law was unfamiliar, and he immediately began to comprehend it again.

Over the past two days, Xu Jin had harvested until he was bursting.

Inside the Arena, the spatial law star had already exploded in growth like it had doubled.

At first, it was second-tier (19).

But now, it had already become fifth-tier (49).

In less than two short days, the spatial laws Xu Jin harvested reached thirty.

Sweeping through ten small worlds with spatial laws might not necessarily yield such a harvest.

At this very moment, Xu Jin was greedily comprehending the newly surging unfamiliar laws.

Because the spatial law star exploded in growth, the unfamiliar spatial laws he encountered actually became fewer.

Also because the spatial law star exploded in growth, Xu Jin's speed in comprehending spatial laws was actually much faster than at the beginning.

Two quarters of an hour later, Xu Jin stepped onto the forty-fourth tier; it was two more unfamiliar spatial laws.

Half an hour later, Xu Jin stepped onto the forty-fifth tier of the Spatial Heavenly Road of Laws; it was another unfamiliar spatial law.

Xu Jin looked left and right, and after his thoughts sank into the Dongxuan Token, he suddenly opened his mouth and said, 【Tianyang Zhenjun, may I ask how much time is left until the end of the grand selection?】

【There is a little over half an hour left.】

For top geniuses, there is always tolerance.

It is just like how teachers in school always have various invisible preferential treatments for the students with the best grades.

【Tianyang Zhenjun, when there is a quarter of an hour left until the end of the grand selection, can you notify me?】 Xu Jin said.

Mainly because on this Spatial Heavenly Road of Laws, various external objects are forbidden, and the Sumeru space cannot be used, so Xu Jin cannot keep time.

At this moment, he could only open his mouth to ask Tianyang Zhenjun Commander Tian Zhang for a small favor.

It was mainly because Xu Jin was greedy.

Spatial laws are too rare.

Xu Jin was unwilling to let go of every one he encountered now.

【Oh, what do you want to do?】

【Tianyang Zhenjun, I still want to try other Heavenly Roads of Laws.】

【What can a quarter of an hour do?】

【I want to try.】

【Good, as you wish.】

【Many thanks, Tianyang Zhenjun.】

After thanking him, Xu Jin continued to comprehend the spatial laws in front of him with all his might.

Time had never been as precious as it was at this moment.

When Xu Jin stepped onto the forty-sixth tier and was halfway through comprehending a spatial law, Tianyang Zhenjun Commander Tian Zhang's voice suddenly sounded beside Xu Jin.

【Xu Jin, the last quarter of an hour.】

Xu Jin opened his eyes instantly, cupped his hands toward the void, 【Many thanks, Tianyang Zhenjun. Please also help me record my tier, Tianyang Zhenjun!】

【Alright.】

The next instant, when Xu Jin's phantom stood on the forty-sixth tier of the Spatial Heavenly Road of Laws, Xu Jin flew out from the Spatial Heavenly Road of Laws instantly.

At this very moment, on the entire Heavenly Road of Laws, Xu Jin was the only one left.

Following Xu Jin's departure from the Heavenly Road of Laws, many powerful figures and observers also breathed a sigh of relief.

Thus, the first round of this year's Dao Child Selection was considered over.

The first round of the Dao Child Selection showed the Dao Children their true talents; next, it was time for their various families to take action and show their own magical powers.

What kind of genius they could dig up depended on what kind of price they could offer.

One by one, they ordered their subordinates to bring gift lists and prepare to recruit people.

But just when they all thought the Dao Child Selection was over, someone suddenly pointed to the Fire Heavenly Road of Laws, "Look, there is still someone climbing the Heavenly Road!

Just started climbing!"

As everyone turned their heads, they saw a figure quickly rush onto the Fire Heavenly Road of Laws.

Everyone was stunned.

One by one, they looked puzzled!

"There is less than a quarter of an hour left until it ends; what ranking can he get by rushing now? Is he stupid?"

"It's just an experience; what can you experience in a quarter of an hour?

Could this guy have water in his brain?"

"The one breaking into the Fire Heavenly Road is the double-first-place Xu Jin!"

Actually, there was no need for Prince Yutang Zhu Shizhen to remind them; the powerful figures present also saw the abnormality.

Too fast!

This Xu Jin, who broke into the Fire Heavenly Road at the last moment, was too fast!

One step per tier, climbing up step by step, as if taking a leisurely stroll.

Too fast!

In a few breaths, Xu Jin climbed up step by step and stepped onto the twentieth tier of the Fire Heavenly Road of Laws!

More importantly, the speed had not decreased at all!

For a time, all eyes were on him.

The gazes of all the powerful figures, as well as all the candidate Dao Children, looked at Xu Jin, all guessing how long Xu Jin could maintain this state and this speed?

As Xu Jin quickly ascended to the thirtieth tier, the expressions of Yuan Chengfa, the first place on the Fire Heavenly Road of Laws, and Su Xuan, the second place on the Fire Heavenly Road of Laws, also became nervous.

Thirtieth tier.

Still like taking a leisurely stroll?

How long did they take to climb up back then?

It seems like it was almost half a quarter of an hour, right?

The next instant, Xu Jin's figure on the Fire Heavenly Road of Laws suddenly sank, and his speed slowed down abruptly.

At the same time, Xu Jin on the Fire Heavenly Road of Laws smiled slightly, "This resistance, has it already come?"

As his thoughts moved, Xu Jin instantly activated the fire-attribute origin star on the Arena, using the fire-attribute origin star to drive the ninth-tier mid fire-source star pattern; in an instant, the pressure of the four fire-attribute laws in front of him disappeared again.

In the blink of an eye, Xu Jin accelerated again.

In the eyes of the stunned crowd, within ten breaths, Xu Jin stepped onto the fortieth tier.

At the same time, Xu Jin's speed also inevitably slowed down.

Fifty breaths later, when Xu Jin stepped onto the fiftieth tier, Yuan Chengfa and Su Xuan's expressions changed drastically.

Sixth!

Xu Jin was already sixth on the Fire Heavenly Road of Laws.

Not far from them!
