Chapter 1199

~7 min read 1,314 words

What do you mean?

After hearing Ji Wuxin's sword intent, the city lord looked completely bewildered.

But he still did as instructed, taking out the third tablet and glancing at it once.

"Hiss hiss hiss hiss... again nine sections ninety-nine points?" The city lord's face changed drastically, then he exclaimed "Damn!" three times in a row before saying: "This... I feel as if I'm dreaming!"

After speaking, his sharp gaze swept over the crowd and landed on Elder Liu.

At this moment, the city lord's emotions gradually stabilized, and his complexion returned to calm.

His intention in looking at Elder Liu was to inquire about the situation of this test, but before the city lord could speak, Elder Liu misunderstood.

Elder Liu thought the city lord wanted to blame him for arbitrarily canceling two results of ninety-nine points in nine sections, harboring ill intentions, so he quickly jumped up to explain: "Impossible... absolutely impossible..."

"In the countless ten thousand years of Dumu Xiancheng, the highest any Heavenly Immortal has ever reached is only seven sections ninety-nine points; even if someone reached nine sections, it would be a once-in-a-billion-years occurrence!"

"How could three appear all at once?"

"Moreover, these three are together, and among them, two actually achieved the top score of ninety-nine in nine sections?"

"Fake!"

"This must be fake!"

"I dare guarantee with my life that this is absolutely fake!"

"These three must have cheated!"

Although Elder Liu did not know the true situation, now three people have appeared at once with nine sections, and two of them are full marks.

This is too absurd, too fake.

The surrounding onlookers also nodded one by one in agreement.

"Yeah, this data is too fake!"

"By rights, since everyone is already a Heavenly Immortal, they shouldn't be stupid; if faking, you shouldn't aim for full marks!"

"Yeah, it's really too strange!"

"I can only say, the real probability of such a thing is absolutely no more than one in a hundred million!"

"Yeah, these three are still together, this is too fake!"

The murmurs of the surrounding people even made the city lord waver.

"You two, did you falsify your scores?" The city lord gently asked Ji Wuxin and He Pingsheng.

This time, Ji Wuxin did not answer; he merely smiled.

He Pingsheng said: "Our scores have already been canceled, so whether we falsified or not is no longer important!"

"I also learned about your rules earlier: if anyone attempts to cheat, their scores are also canceled!"

"So please, City Lord, treat us as if we falsified!"

"Exactly!" Ji Wuxin also chimed in: "Junior also means this; anyway, the scores have already been canceled, City Lord, just treat us as having falsified!"

After saying this, the surrounding people all showed expressions of "As expected."

But the city lord was unwilling to accept it.

What if it's true?

If it really is, then Dumu Xiancheng has produced two peerless heavenly talents... no, three!

By then, not being able to think of a name would be difficult, and looking back, this city lord of mine would also share in the honor.

Of course, this is all trivial; the key is that the city lord is also an immortal, and he also wants to witness this great moment.

To personally see three peerless geniuses assault the nine sections—what an honor!

"Like this!" The city lord pondered for a moment and said: "Elder Liu, open the standard Heavenly Gate Array, adjust the intensity to 【Heavenly Immortal Level】, and let He Pingsheng, Ji Wuxin, and Wen Wulan retake the test!"

"Then naturally, the truth will be revealed!"

Elder Liu naturally dared not defy the order, saying: "Good!"

Ji Wuxin, however, gave a cold smile and lazily said: "Senior, as the city lord I respect you, but retesting like this is unnecessary!"

"We are full of disappointment toward Dumu Xiancheng; my martial uncle just said he would take me to other immortal cities for testing and certification!"

"We won't stay here!"

He Pingsheng said: "I think the same!"

Well then...

A slap in the face!

The city lord's face turned black as a pot bottom: I invited you, you refuse, good fellow... this face is really getting slapped left and right.

"Saying you want to change places to test... hehehe... I see you're just cheating!" Elder Liu angrily shouted at the two.

Ji Wuxin said: "Right... we cheated!"

"Everything is fake!"

"As long as you feel comfortable in your heart, say whatever you want!"

The two basically gave no explanation.

At this moment, the Hidden Sword Daoist who had been standing silently at the side laughed and said lightly: "However you think, that's your business; my child wants to leave this place to test elsewhere, and no one should dare to stop him, right?"

As soon as he spoke, a profound and overbearing sword intent burst forth from his body, sweeping toward the surroundings.

Though it was a sword intent causing no harm, it was enough to display the Hidden Sword Daoist's strength.

The Stone Immortal Lord also stepped forward, standing beside the Hidden Sword Daoist.

Thus, two great Golden Immortals press the formation, with three suspected peerless heavenly talents behind—who dares to move?

The scene fell silent as tombs; at this moment, no one dared to speak or gossip.

The city lord's facial expression changed several times, finally revealing a gentle smile as he said: "Two Daoist friends misunderstood; I, Dumu Xiancheng, allow free coming and going—how could I possibly stop you?"

"But after all, peerless heavenly talents have descended; if I could personally witness it, wouldn't that be a blessing!"

"This old man's Dao title is Zhongyuan. I sincerely implore you two to let these three peerless heaven's pride re-enter the Heavenly Gate Array, and we shall enter together to observe!"

"What do you two think?"

Cangjian did not speak.

Caishi Immortal Lord said: "Letting them go in to retest is not impossible!"

"However, I have a condition!"

"Good!" Zhongyuan Immortal Lord was instantly overjoyed, saying: "Easy to say, easy to say. What condition does Sir have?"

Caishi Immortal Lord pointed at Elder Liu in the distance, saying: "This wretch confuses black and white, abuses public office for private gain, and uses power to oppress others!"

"A person like this, not killing him is insufficient to quell this old man's anger!"

"But Heaven has the virtue of cherishing life. This old man can also spare his life. If our Young Master truly manages to reach the ninety-nine points of the ninth stage in the Heavenly Gate Array, then let him cripple his own cultivation. I wonder what Daoist Friend Zhongyuan thinks?"

Zhongyuan Immortal Lord's gaze turned toward Elder Liu.

Elder Liu's face was frighteningly dark.

But there was no way; the situation was stronger than the man!

Facing a Golden Immortal stage Immortal Lord, and with the other party having named him directly, he had absolutely no power to resist.

"Fine..." Elder Liu gritted his teeth and agreed, saying: "If these three people did not cheat, this old man will voluntarily lower my cultivation to the Human Immortal stage!"

Caishi Immortal Lord said: "Deal!"

After speaking, he looked at Cangjian Immortal Lord again.

Cangjian nodded: "Deal!"

"Good!" Zhongyuan Immortal Lord was instantly overjoyed. He waved his sleeve, saying: "Elder Liu, immediately, right now, activate the array!"

"All consumption costs will be borne by this Lord!"

"Yes!" Elder Liu somewhat helplessly personally walked to that Standard Heavenly Gate Array, and then opened up the array.

He couldn't even exert any extra force if he wanted to.

Because the Standard Heavenly Gate Array is a standard; the entire Immortal Realm uses the same set of standards.

This standard grand array in Rimu Immortal City has two energy levels that can be adjusted: one is Human Immortal stage strength, one is Heavenly Immortal stage strength.

The highest is only Heavenly Immortal stage.
