It's easy to say don't bully young people into being poor, but in the world of martial arts, if you are poor, no matter how talented you are, you will really be buried.
Because you have no resources, you were not born with a golden key in your mouth, you do not have powerful exercises, you do not have powerful elixirs, you do not have powerful senior guidance...
What others have, you don’t have.
The starting line is different, and they cannot accelerate at the same speed. It is almost impossible to narrow the gap.
Therefore, the world of martial arts is often so cruel.
This is also vividly reflected in the competition for the third ranking of the Liuli King Pagoda Club.
The hierarchy is strict and the barriers are clear.
The direct geniuses under the emperor only need to participate in the final competition for the Young Master Ranking. They do not need to participate in the previous competitions, and they do not bother to participate.
Ordinarily powerful geniuses do not need to participate in the competition for the Rising Star List, they only need to participate in the competition for the Genius List.
Every detail reflects privileges and levels.
Seeing Jiang Chen's silence, the Peacock Emperor looked at Jiang Chen with a meaningful smile: "What? Are you scared? Or do you think it's unfair?"
To say it's unfair, it's true.
But Jiang Chen naturally wouldn't say anything unfair. Maybe it seems a little unfair, but one should take a long-term view on the road to martial arts. The way of heaven is still fair.
It's not like he couldn't think about such a thing.
"Your Majesty, there is no absolute fairness. Real fairness can only be achieved by oneself. This junior has never thought about any fairness falling from the sky."
The Peacock Emperor laughed loudly: "Listening to what you said, it can be seen that you are really very understanding and have nothing to think about."
"There is no need to think too hard. It is also a good experience to climb up step by step from below. How can those so-called geniuses feel the scenery like this when they are so cold at high places?"
Jiang Chen's words were actually spoken out of emotion.
In his previous life, he could not practice and experience the pleasure of competing with the world's geniuses. Now that he has been reborn, he cherishes this opportunity very much.
To say that it's cold at high places, he, the son of the Emperor of Heaven, was high enough in his previous life. But he didn't have any experience in this aspect, and all he had was endless loneliness.
So, in this life, if he has such an opportunity, why would he complain?
Even if Emperor Peacock gives him this privilege, Jiang Chen may not be willing to accept it.
"Okay," the Peacock Emperor praised, "you can think of it this way, the road in the future will definitely be wider and further than those of geniuses. However, before that, you must also make all psychological preparations. The geniuses who are direct descendants of the emperor
, and the genius below are two completely different levels."
There is no need for the Peacock Emperor to remind him of this.
There are countless young geniuses in the huge Liuli King City, and the geniuses who can stand at the top undoubtedly have real talent and learning.
Jiang Chen naturally would not underestimate the enemy.
However, Jiang Chen naturally would not belittle himself.
They have their advantages, and Jiang Chen has Jiang Chen's advantages.
"Your Majesty's instructions, I will keep them in mind. The battle of the Martial Tower will begin soon. In the last few days, I will go back and make preparations."
The Peacock Emperor nodded: "Go ahead. I look forward to seeing you soar into the sky in half a year."
Seeing Jiang Chen disappear from his sight, the admiration in the Peacock Emperor's eyes still did not fade away. He sighed softly and said to himself: "This boy has great luck, even in the secular Eastern Kingdom.
Starting in such a small place is so charming. If he started in Liuli King City since he was young, I really can't imagine his future heights."
The Peacock Emperor did not hide his admiration for Jiang Chen at all.
When Jiang Chen returned to Taiyuan Pavilion, Wei Jie happened to be walking out of Taiyuan Pavilion. Seeing Jiang Chen, Wei Jie was also very happy and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.
However, Wei Jie's attitude was inevitably a little more reserved in the midst of intimacy. This made Jiang Chen slightly uncomfortable.
"Wei Shao, you're out of town." Jiang Chen smiled.
Wei Jie scratched his head: "Now you are the number one alchemy person in Liuli King City. My father asked me not to be too casual in front of you. I..."
"Don't listen to him. We have been through adversity together. We were brothers before and we will be brothers for life. By the way, what do you think about this battle in Wuta?"
Wei Jie sighed softly: "I don't need to participate in the Rising Star List, but directly enter the competition for the Talent List. However, it is too difficult to enter the final two hundred people. The hope is not very high."
"Is it that difficult?" Jiang Chen was slightly surprised.
"It's not that difficult." Wei Jie said with a wry smile, "I roughly calculated that if I'm lucky, I might be able to get into the top three hundred. But if I get to the top two hundred, it won't happen unless my character explodes."
"Isn't it? Are there so many geniuses?" Jiang Chen was a little doubtful.
"This is not an exaggeration. First of all, the emperor's subordinates occupy thirty-six places. On the genius list of two hundred people, there are only one hundred and sixty-four places left. Twenty-eight clans, each clan has
There are so many outstanding geniuses who are definitely not comparable to the children of aristocratic families. This occupies at least hundreds of places. There are dozens of places left, as well as monks from some surrounding places and a large number of children of ninth-level aristocratic families.
Among casual cultivators, there are occasionally a few geniuses... Based on this calculation, I really don't have much confidence in the top two hundred."
Wei Jie is indeed not being modest, he is telling the truth.
In the Wei family, Wei Jie is indeed the most outstanding of the younger generation. But Liuli City is too big and there are too many outstanding talents.
The most important thing is that the Liuli King Pagoda Meeting is not only attended by the children of Liuli King City. Geniuses from all surrounding areas may also participate.
The opponents that the Wei family has to face are not just the powerful ones like Liuli King City.
"What does the Wei family want from you?" Jiang Chen asked curiously.
"The family naturally hopes that I will compete for the top 200 and enter the genius list. If I can enter the genius list, then no one can challenge my status as the heir of the Wei family in the future."
Judging from Wei Jie's appearance, it was obvious that he was not very sure about this either.
When Jiang Chen met Wei Jie, he was still at the seventh level of the Holy Realm. Now he has broken through to the eighth level of the Holy Realm. He is still one step away from the peak of the ninth level of the Holy Realm. It is indeed quite difficult to compete for the top 200.
After all, on a big stage of this level, there are probably a lot of geniuses in the Heavenly Saint Realm.
Especially for the top genius list, if you want to enter the genius list, I am afraid that none of them will be lower than the ninth level of the holy realm, unless they are a pervert like Jiang Chen.
There are even a few who are still at the Half-Step Imperial Realm, and there are even a few who have broken through the Half-Step Imperial Realm and become the Imperial Realm directly.
Jiang Chen has never asked about this, and he doesn't want to ask about it for the time being.
Seeing Wei Jie like this, Jiang Chen remembered that he still had a Holy Laughter Pill, which could unconditionally break through the first level in the Holy Realm. He got two pills at the beginning and took one himself.
"Wei Shao, I have a Holy Laughter Pill here. It can help you break through to the ninth level of the Holy Realm. That's all I can help you with."
Jiang Chen is not a stingy person, and he has no need for this Holy Laughter Pill himself. It can be used by others, and it can be used by Wei Jie.
Wei Jie can now take care of his urgent needs, so of course he won't feel any pain at all.
When Wei Jie heard this, he just stayed on the spot, his eyes were surprised, but he didn't dare to reach out to pick it up.
Jiang Chen directly pressed his hand: "Take it. Anyway, you don't have to participate in the competition for the Rising Star List. You have enough time to refine and break through the ninth level of the Saint Realm. Remember, enter the Genius List. Don't let me down.
Holy Laughter Pill"
Wei Jie felt his nose was sore and his heart was filled with tears.
"Brother Zhen, I..." Wei Jie wanted to say something gracefully, but when the words came to his mouth, he choked up.
"You deserve this." Jiang Chen patted Wei Jie's shoulder, "If it weren't for you back then, I wouldn't have been able to enter Liuli King City, and without you and me, the friendship we have today.
Wei Jie nodded solemnly: "Wei Jie has taken note of Brother Zhen's kindness. I won't praise Haikou. In the future, as long as you need me, Wei Jie, and my Wei family's place, you just need to say a word, even if it means mountains of swords and seas of fire."
, Wei will not even frown. Otherwise, I will be punished by heaven and earth and die."
Wei Jie is not the kind of person who burns bridges by crossing rivers. He has a kind and honest temperament. If he didn't value him for this, Jiang Chen would not have rashly cooperated with Wei Jie in the first place.
Having cooperated with Wei Jie for so long, Wei Jie is still very reliable. He is also very tight-lipped. He did not gossip about Jiang Chen, Dangan Palace, or Taiyuan Pavilion.
Never inquire.
This kind of character is something Jiang Chen admires very much.
Therefore, Jiang Chen didn't feel bad at all when he gave him this Holy Laughter Pill.
"Time is tight, go ahead. Break through the ninth level and enter the genius list. Let everyone in the Wei family know that you, Wei Jie, are the most outstanding successor of the Wei family. You can never be replaced."
Wei Jie was also overjoyed. Obtaining a miracle elixir like the Holy Laughter Pill was something Wei Jie had never thought about or even dreamed of.
Now, I suddenly got one, especially at this critical moment. This Holy Laughter Pill is of great significance.
Not only does his strength increase by one level, it is also enough to help him enter the genius list, enter the top 200 list, and sit on the throne of the heir of the Wei family, and put all controversies to rest.
This is the greatest significance of Sheng Xiao Dan.
Seeing Wei Jie leaving with gratitude, Jiang Chen felt very happy.
Jiang Chen did not intend to waste the last few days of preparation time. He consolidated his realm and became proficient in various exercises, martial arts, and equipment, so that he was ready for everything.
Five days later, the battle of Wuta officially kicked off.
On this day, everyone in Taiyuan Pavilion took a day off to support Jiang Chen.
The famous King Zhen Dan of the Liuli King City was going to participate in the Battle of the Martial Pagoda. The news spread like wildfire and soon spread throughout the entire Liuli King City.
At first, everyone thought that if King Zhen Dan wanted to participate in the Battle of Wu Pagoda, he must have special privileges.
However, news soon came that King Zhen Dan did not have any privileges. Just like ordinary cultivators, he had to start from the bottom and hit the top ten thousand rising stars first.
As a result, not to mention the ordinary martial arts cultivators in Liuli King City were shocked, even all the camps were extremely surprised.
Normally, with the name of King Zhendan, if you want to get some privileges, no one can say anything.
However, people don’t seek privileges and start working hard from the bottom.
