Lingyun sat quietly in his room, thinking back to the words of the Honored Warrior Huo Zhen.

He possessed a Raging Flames Martial Body, one of the top one in ten thousand. This was also the reason why the Honored Warrior Huo Zhen was ranked number one on the Great Swallow Ranking at that time.

Soon after, the Honored Warrior Huo Zhen became the champion of the Dragon Transformation battle. He obtained the opportunity to leave the Great Yan Dynasty and head for a wider world …

"Now, I somewhat understand why every force, including the Royal families, would spare no effort to nurture these young geniuses and let them attempt to ascend the ranks of the Martial Disciples."

The foundation of an organization like the Martial Sect was definitely beyond everyone's imagination. In other words, the Martial Sect was a transcendent power set up in the mortal world to help them select their heaven's pride level.

In reality, Ling Yun's guess did not differ much from the truth.

"Looks like I have no choice but to make a trip to the Dragon-Transformation Mountain's Martial Gate."

After Lingyun had entered the Great Yan Imperial City, the name of the Dragon Transformation Mountain Martial School was just like a shadow that followed him. No matter where he went, he would not be able to leave this mysterious organization.

After Ling Yun stabilized himself, he finally set the schedule for his trip to the Martial Gate.

A day later, Ling Yun quietly disappeared from the Ling Residence.

"..."

Great Yan Imperial City covered hundreds of miles, forming an ancient city!

Dragon Transformation Mountain was like a ten thousand man lone sword that stood proudly at the east of the imperial city, confronting the Great Yan Imperial Palace from afar.

A great white jade road with 9,999 steps led from the foot of the Dragon Transformation Mountain to the top of the mountain.

When Lingyun reached the starting point of White Jade Street, he realized that there was no one guarding this place.

"Could it be that the martial gate is unguarded?"

Ling Yun was a little curious.

When Ling Yun stepped onto the White Jade Road, a wave of pressure suddenly descended from the sky.

"So that's how it is. The White Jade Road probably has an array glyph, which is enough to stop any martial artist below the tenth level of the Mortal Origin Stage."

"The martial arts sect is truly a holy land. Even the standards to enter are this high?" Only Mortal Origin Stage martial artists and above had the right to enter! "You really are bold."

Ling Yun, who was at the beginning of White Jade Street, raised his head and looked at the majestic mountain that seemed like a miracle.

"The threshold of the 10th level of the Mortal Origin Stage can't stop me."

The corner of Lingyun's mouth lifted into a smile, and he quickly disappeared from the White Jade Road.

An hour later, Lingyun passed through White Jade Street and officially entered the Martial Gate.

The Sect was divided into four main sections: the Martial Arts Arena, the Auction House, the Cultivation Palace, and the Martial Scripture Pavilion.

Amongst them, the martial arts arena was the most important part.

The martial arena was also the only way for all the martial artists to break through to the Mortal Board.

Below the Mortal Board, there was another ranking, and that was the Potential Ranking.

All the martial artists that had reached the tenth level of the Mortal Origin Stage could choose to challenge a martial artist on the Potential Ranking, and their victories would be replaced.

It was only after entering the list of potential rankings that they would have the qualifications to challenge the existing Mortal Board martial artists.

This was equivalent to a Heaven Stairway.

First, he had the strength of a tenth level Mortal Origin Stage cultivator, and then he would be on the Potential Ranking. Finally, he would be able to challenge the Mortal Board.

In addition, there were two extremely strict conditions on the Mortal Board.

That was his age and cultivation level.

Only young martial artists below the age of 20 had the qualifications to be ranked.

As long as you pass the bone age of twenty, then no matter how outstanding or strong you are, you will not be able to enter the list.

The other was the realm.

The reason Heaven's Pride of the Mortal Board was called the Mortal Board was because all the top ranked warriors had to suppress their cultivation to the Mortal Origin Stage.

Once one's cultivation reached the Mortal Origin Stage, even if they were half a step into the Earth Origin Stage, it would still be impossible.

Perhaps many people would wonder, if they were all Mortal Origin Stage Stage Stage Level 10 martial artists, the gap between them wouldn't be that wide.

No.

Above the tenth level of the Mortal Origin Stage, there was actually another special realm. That was the Extreme Mortal Stage.

The Extreme Mortal Stage was something that exceeded the limits of the Mortal Origin Stage.

Warriors on the Ranking, and even most of the warriors on the Potential Ranking, were at the Extreme Mortal Realm.

Even though they were only Mortal Origin Stage martial artists, they had the right to jump ranks and challenge others.

To put it bluntly, a warrior in the Extreme Mortal Stage could easily destroy a half-step Earth Origin Stage cultivator.

Some of the stronger Extreme Mortal warriors could even surpass the natural chasm between the Earth and the Mortal Origin Stage. When they were in the Mortal Origin Stage, they could already possess the terrifying power of the Earth Origin Stage.

Once a heaven's pride expert like him broke through to the Earth Origin Stage, he would be able to reap enormous rewards for all that he had accumulated during his time in the Mortal Origin Stage.

This was the so called accumulation of knowledge.

Other than the martial arena, Lingyun was very interested in places like the cultivation palace.

The cultivation rooms in the palace all had the support of the Essence Gathering Array glyphs, which could allow a martial artist's cultivation speed to increase tenfold or even a hundredfold.

As for the auction house, it was filled with resources from the entire Great Yan Dynasty. Here, any rare treasure or item could be found.

"Perhaps we might encounter some rare treasures that train the soul."

However, although the Cultivation Palace and the auction house are nice places, one thing that Ling Yun is embarrassed about is the money!

Needless to say, all the treasures in the auction house were extremely expensive! It was easily worth several million silver.

Even the training palaces were ridiculously expensive.

One Mortal Grade cultivation room cost as much as 100,000 yuan per day!

Earth grade, 500,000!

When Ling Yun saw the cost of the Heaven grade cultivation room, he gasped: "One million gold a day!"

My gosh, I don't have a wealth that can rival an entire country. How could I possibly cultivate within a martial arts gate like this?

Even if Blue Thunder City's Ling Family was mentioned, it would not be enough for Ling Yun to cultivate for ten days to half a month in a Heaven-ranked cultivation room.

Furthermore, Ling Yun only brought one hundred thousand gold with him to the Royal City.

He had originally thought that he had brought too much with him, but in the end, he discovered that … It was just a drop in the bucket.

Lingyun looked around, and when he saw those coming and going, entering and leaving the auction house, he suddenly felt that he was very poor.

"Let's head to the martial arena first."

This was because not only did the arena not need to spend money, it could also earn money.

For an ordinary battle on the tenth level of the Mortal Origin Stage, the reward would be a hundred thousand gold coins.

The competition of the potential rankings would start with three hundred thousand gold coins.

And the Mortal Board was even higher than that by several million!

Moreover, as the ranking of martial artists on the potential list or the Mortal Board increased, the amount of rewards would also increase.

In front of the arena, Ling Yun had to pay ten thousand silver coins to be able to enter.

"It's really like snatching money …" Ling Yun could no longer afford to retort.

When Ling Yun walked into the arena's audience seating, he realized that the arena, which could hold a thousand people, was filled to the brim!

It was truly worthy of being called a Royal City. There were already so many Mortal Origin Stage martial artists at the tenth level.

The reason why these warriors were willing to spend so much money to spectate the competition in the arena was probably because they wanted to learn from this person.

After all, the participants in the arena were all experts at the peak of the Mortal Origin Stage.

Especially those young heaven's pride level experts on the potential rankings and even the Mortal Board, each of them had a special advantage.

If they could get even the slightest bit of inspiration from them, then these people would reap enormous benefits.

At this moment, in the center of the arena.

The fight had just ended, and a young warrior at the peak of the tenth level of the Mortal Origin Stage had finally won.

The referee loudly announced, "Zhou Long, third win in a row, three hundred thousand gold."

When the referee announced the result, a wave of cheers rose from the audience seats.

"Zhou Long has already won the third consecutive round. His momentum is quite good."

"If I remember correctly, he must be from the Hengshan Mansion, a very good young man."

"But it can't be too early to be happy. It's only the third round. If he wants to obtain the qualification to challenge the potential rankings, he'll have to win seven consecutive rounds."

"It is too difficult to challenge the Potential Ranking after ten consecutive victories. Not to mention ten matches, it is already considered extraordinary to be able to win three consecutive victories in this Dragon Transformation Mountain where experts are as common as the clouds."

"I wonder how far Zhou Long can go?"

In the end, this Zhou Long from the House of the Marquis of Hengshan had a five win streak and was unable to obtain the qualifications to challenge the potential rankings.

"How should I put it? The top of the tenth level of the Mortal Origin Stage is still too weak. I need to at least step into the Extreme Mortal Stage in order to be qualified to challenge the Potential Ranking."

Then, another martial artist stepped onto the stage.

"It's Young Master Yan!" There was a cheer from the audience.

A young man wearing white clothes and a half-mask walked onto the stage.

"I heard that Young Master Yan won nine consecutive rounds half a month ago, and is only missing one final match to successfully break out of the encirclement. What a pity, I wonder if he will be able to obtain his wish this time?"

"He is very strong. Half a month ago, he lost that fight because he encountered a very powerful Extreme Mortal Realm warrior. Otherwise, he would have been qualified by now."

"This time he's making a comeback. Victory is already in his grasp."

As expected, this young man called Young Master Yan was quite extraordinary and had become the first person to achieve ten consecutive victories.

"Damn. Every consecutive victory will result in a prize of 100,000 more. If he wins 10 matches in a row, that will be 5.5 million!" Ling Yun's eyes were filled with the shape of Origin Treasures.

"Truly vulgar. We martial artists should value the glory of victory. How can we just focus on these vulgarities!?" One of the old uncles next to Ling Yun scolded.

"Because of the age limit, I won't be able to be on the leaderboard in my entire life, but you youngsters are at the right time to struggle. Young people, don't make a mistake!"

The old man had a serious expression on his face, as if he was a martial arts fanatic.

Lingyun rolled his eyes and thought to himself: "You are a full man and you don't know how hungry and how hungry I am. I need money, Uncle!"

However, this mischievous uncle was indeed kind, Lingyun also respectfully thanked him.

"Hmm? That's not right! This brat seemed to only be at the ninth level of the Mortal Origin Stage … How did he manage to cross White Jade Road? " The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was off.

But when he came back to his senses, Ling Yun had already disappeared.
