“Jiang Chen, you’re our glory as new disciples. We are depending on you. Hahaha.”

“Among the new disciples, you’re the first person to advance to the Top 3 in the Ranking Battle. You just helped us gain back our dignity.”

“Jiang Chen really made a name for himself this time. If he could win the first place in the Ranking Battle, his name would probably remain immortal and he would be remembered forever in the Profound Connection Divine Palace’s history.”

“I think he will at least win second place, and even first place. Haha. If the Outer Palace’s Three Dragons are all defeated by Jiang Chen in this battle, it will definitely give a shock to the entire Profound Connection Divine Palace.”

Most of them were looking forward to Jiang Chen’s performance. Even though he was undoubtedly strong, defeating Xiao Qinglong was the key to win the first place, and it was also one of the most challenging thresholds. Xiao Qinglong’s strength was formidable, even slightly superior to Yu Chenglong.

Most of them were waiting for Jiang Chen’s rise. Not only the new disciples, even the old disciples felt the same. Since Xiao Qinglong was so used to being strong and overpowering, it would be an absolutely stunning match if someone could defeat him. At the same time, the old disciples were obviously simmered down compared to the new disciples. There were merely two hundred new disciples and their period of cultivation was relatively short compared to the old disciples. It was possible for Jiang Chen to threaten the old disciples’ position in the Profound Connection Divine Palace. That was the reason why they were expecting an intense battle between Jiang Chen and Xiao Qinglong.

“It seems like you have such a great number of supporters. But we’ll see who will have the last laugh.”

Xiao Qinglong said smilingly. This fight would certainly go down in history and Jiang Chen was a strong candidate who got spontaneous cheer and support from the crowd.

“Since that is what they are looking for, I am sure that you are going to lose.”

A bright smile was plastered on Jiang Chen’s face. Apparently, Jiang Chen had gained popularity and recognition from the crowd compared to Xiao Qinglong.

“Humph. I am afraid that you are not capable of doing so.”

Xiao Qinglong said in a low voice, slightly narrowing his eyes. His eyes were filled with determination and will to fight.

Xiao Qinglong turned away and held a nine-feet long silver sword in his hand. It was comparable to Qin Qinglang’s Ling Yun Spear, and was even stronger.

“This is my natal divine weapon, Azure Dragon Moon Sword! I have the utmost respect for you.”

Xiao Qinglong said coldly, he dared not act recklessly. This guy gave him some pressure and threat. Especially after the intense combat between Jiang Chen and Qin Qinglang, he realized that Jiang Chen was not an ordinary opponent. However, it would not be as easy as Jiang Chen thought to win the first place. Jiang Chen had to go through Xiao Qinglong first.

Jiang Chen snapped his fingers, it was glittering with sparkling gold light.

“Heavenly Dragon Sword, forging the soul of dragon, unparalleled in the world!

Jiang Chen said with a faint smile. At that moment, even Master Lin fixed his eyes on Jiang Chen’s Heavenly Dragon Sword. He was full of astonishment and fright at the moment.

Master Lin looked solemn. Jiang Chen’s Heavenly Dragon Sword was filled with the splendor of a Primal Origin Treasure. Each Primal Origin Treasure had its soul, also known as the Divine Weapon’s spirit. However, it seemed like Jiang Chen’s Heavenly Dragon Sword was a weapon without a soul but it still gave a kind of great vitality and powerful aura.

But how could a sword without a soul be considered a Primal Origin Treasure? Lin Youkang was confused at the moment. He did not know if the Heavenly Dragon Sword owned by Jiang Chen was really a Primal Origin Treasure. If it really was, it would awaken his curiosity about Jiang Chen’s real identity. Even if he owned a Primal Origin Treasure, it might be just a damaged Primal Origin Treasure. Even so, there were a great deal of Hierarch Realm experts who would admire and envy Jiang Chen. It was lucky enough for a Hierarch Realm expert to own a piece of Upper Grade Origin Divine Tool, and as for a Supreme Grade, it would be a matter of chance.

Lin Youkang looked serious. At the moment, he could not help but breathe rapidly and his eyes were filled with desire and envy. But since it belonged to Jiang Chen and he was one of most important people in the Profound Connection Divine Palace, he would not demean himself to seize it from Jiang Chen. Hence, it would be extremely difficult for Xiao Qinglong to win the battle when Jiang Chen was holding a Primal Origin Treasure.

“So it is a Primal Origin Treasure? It really seems. He is merely a Late Divine King Realm expert, it is impossible for him to own a Primal Origin Treasure.”

Qian Renji wore a frown, she looked doubtful and confused. But obviously, she knew what a Primal Origin Treasure looked like. In the Half-step Divine Emperor Realm, the Second Lord and Third Lord rarely met any opponent of the same calibre, and were capable of ruling the Profound Connection Divine Palace with great dominion and authority over the years. That was because they each were holding a Primal Origin Treasure. Even though it was not considered as a Supreme Grade divine tool, its power was still irresistible. Besides, a Primal Origin Treasure would be unapproachable and unattainable for ordinary Hierarch Realm experts. How could Jiang Chen own one as a new disciple? Even if he was a genius from those great sects, he would not be able to obtain a Primal Origin Treasure easily. It was not an ordinary divine tool that everyone could have a chance to obtain after all.

“It seems like a Primal Origin Treasure, but I am not sure about that.”

Lin Youkang said under his breath. He wished he was wrong. Otherwise, he would definitely be placed in an extremely difficult situation. In the Profound Connection Divine Palace, it would be difficult to keep everyone out of temptation, even if he did not show any interest in it.

“Great, you look so confident. I will make you realize that the pride of the old disciples is inviolable in this battle. Not only that, a murderer must pay with their own life. I shall avenge the Jiang Brothers this time as I lost a great number of Heavenly Flame Crystals after their death. You’re probably the first person who dared to block my path!”

Xiao Qinglong pointed his sword at Jiang Chen and swept through the world.

The nine-feet long Azure Dragon Sword transformed into a dragon’s shape, and soared high into the sky. While Jiang Chen remained calm as usual, holding the Heavenly Dragon Sword with a fearless and overbearing look.

“Kid, I think you should not get involved in this battle. I am afraid that someone would recognize you. You will surely be in trouble for doing so.”

There was a sound lingering in his mind. He snapped his fingers, a loud sound came out from the Heavenly Dragon Sword. It seemed to be showing displeasure with someone. Jiang Chen wore a faint smile on his face. He had never expected the soul of a sword to be so humanistic.

“Azure Dragon with Absolute Shadow!”

Xiao Qinglong roared furiously, his sword swept through the air. Jiang Chen attacked and retreated at the same time. Even if Jiang Chen was not afraid of Xiao Qinglong’s terrifying oppression, Jiang Chen was not determined to make him submit by force. Instead, he planned to defeat him using his skills. The sword glittered with light and its aura stunned the world. Jiang Chen’s sword came before the opponent, and Xiao Qinglong’s sword struck out aggressively.

Countless shadows of swords pierced through the void violently like a real Azure Dragon. The Azure Dragon glittered brightly and attacked wildly.
