"What do you think of this boy's aptitude when compared to Snow Flower's?" Ye Jiannan did not directly answer Ji Chen and the other elders' questions. Instead, he opened his mouth and asked.

Snow Frost is a ninth grade Spiritual Root. Even amongst the geniuses with ninth grade Spiritual Roots, he is considered a top grade genius. When this kid tested his Spiritual Root, he was only a mere seventh grade Spiritual Root.

Ji Chen said after a moment of silence.

"That's right."

Ye Jiannan nodded and then raised his head to look at Ji Chen. He asked, "Then do you remember how long it took for Xue Shuang to break through from the Mortal realm to the Martial King realm?"

"This... "From the time she was young, she entered the Mortal realm at the age of seven, broke through the Earth realm at the age of ten, became the Heaven realm at the age of twelve, and became the Emperor realm at the age of sixteen. She is a lot younger than Long Hao's age, but if it was time, she spent a whole eight years."

Ji Chen said.

"Then, my school will ask you guys again: Xue Shuang spent eight years' time to break through from the Mortal realm to the Martial King realm. Is that talent good or bad?" Ye Jiannan asked again.

"Of course it's good!"

The other Skysword Sect Elder answered without hesitation. Back then, they had spent almost twenty years to cultivate to the King's realm.

"Then, how long did Long Hao Chen take to cultivate from the Mortal realm to the King's realm?"

Ye Jiannan asked.

"This …"

Hearing Ye Jiannan's words, Ji Chen and the others realized that before Long Hao Chen entered the Skysword Sect, he was just a little kid at the seventh level of the Mortal Realm.

And from the time Long Hao Chen entered the Skysword Sect, less than a year had passed since he started cultivating to the current Emperor realm. That cultivation speed could simply be called a monster.

No, he should be one of the monsters.

Whether it was Long Hao Chen's talent in alchemy or the fact that he had obtained the recognition of all the spiritual tools in the entire Sword Altar, it was undoubtedly proof of his power.

"As matters stand, do you still think that Long Hao Chen only has a tiny seventh grade spiritual root?"

Ye Jiannan asked.

Ji Chen and the others immediately fell silent. From their point of view, although Long Hao's breakthrough was indeed due to countless fortuitous encounters, it was mostly because of Long Hao's innate talent which was extremely powerful.

"Long Hao's spiritual roots are definitely not any kind of grade seven spiritual roots, it's just that this kid is too well-hidden. Even if it's our sect, we still won't be able to see it, but at least this old man can tell that this kid is someone from the Skysword Sect."

"In that case, I don't mind helping him. No matter what secret he's hiding, as long as he doesn't say anything, we won't ask. After a long time, everything will naturally come to light."

Ye Jiannan said.

When the three Skysword Sect elders heard this, they all became silent. They clearly understood the meaning behind Ye Jiannan's words. No matter what status Long Hao had, they all directly protected Long Hao Chen.

The more powerful Long Hao Chen was, the stronger the future of the Skysword Sect. As the head of the Skysword Sect, the first thing he had to consider was the future of the Skysword Sect.

"..."

Boom!

On the third day, the second round of the Thousand Sect Alliance Competition had just begun. As a powerful wave of spiritual energy struck a distant battle drum, the sound of the drum instantly filled the entire Eastern Emperor Sect.

"The second round of the competition has officially begun. The first match, Long Hao Chen from the Heavenly Sword Sect versus Ye Changtian from the Longevity Sect!"

The Eastern Emperor shouted.

"Senior-apprentice Brother Long, it's you. I didn't think that the first match would be you!"

"Come on Senior Brother Long!"

"This Ye Changtian seems to be at the 5th level of the King's Realm. Senior brother Long must be careful of him!"

"…"

Beside Long Hao Chen, a few disciples of the Skysword Sect immediately said to Long Hao Chen in unison.

"Senior sister, I'm going."

Even he himself was somewhat surprised. He hadn't thought that he would be the first one on stage, and furthermore, the one to be facing was a disciple of the Longevity Sect.

"Be careful."

Wei Xue Shuang looked at Long Hao Chen and whispered.

"En!"

Long Hao Chen immediately nodded. He took a step forward and directly landed on the arena. In front of him, a young man wearing a white robe was already looking at Long Hao Chen with disdain.

"You are Long Hao Chen?"

Ye Changtian asked coldly.

"Hmm?"

Long Hao Chen was somewhat speechless as he looked at Ye Changtian, his eyes suddenly looking at the other as if he was looking at an idiot. He said, "Are you deaf? You're asking me this kind of nonsense? "

"Humph!"

Hearing Long Hao Chen's words, Ye Changtian immediately snorted disdainfully, and said: "You only know how to talk. I am a powerful warrior at the 5th level of the King's realm, dealing with a kid like you who just broke through to the King's realm is like crushing an ant. Even if I stood here and let you hit me, you would not be able to hurt a single hair on my head."

Ye Changtian's words were extremely arrogant.

However, when Long Hao Chen heard these words, he was like a fool. He looked at Ye Zhang Tian: "Did you know that the person who said something similar to this to you last time was split into two halves by my sword?"

"You're courting death!"

Ye Changtian raised his eyebrows and revealed an impatient expression as he said, "This is the first time I've seen such an arrogant brat at the first level of the King's realm. Since that is the case, let me see what kind of ability you have!"

"Sky Sword Art!"

"Swoosh swoosh swoosh!"

Ye Changtian coldly shouted and a long sword directly appeared in his hand. He suddenly shot out several beautiful sword flowers. The sword flowers flashed and several sharp sword energies instantly arrived in front of Long Hao Chen.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Long Hao Chen's figure immediately retreated. Every sword energy hit the ground, producing a loud sound.

"Your Longevity Sect's sword techniques are all like this, like you haven't eaten at all? "You actually only have this little bit of power. If that's the case, then you might as well roll off the stage!"

Long Hao Chen said with disdain.

"Die!"

Ye Changtian's face suddenly turned cold. He coldly shouted and his figure directly rushed towards Long Hao Chen. But the moment his figure was about to approach Long Hao Chen, Long Hao Chen took a step and dodged his attack.

"Boom boom boom!"

Ye Changtian's attack failed again, causing Ye Zhangkong to stare at Long Hao Chen with a gaze that seemed as if it could spit fire.

"Brat, if you have the ability, don't dodge!"

He hadn't expected that Long Hao Chen's movement technique would be so agile. He originally thought that he could easily take down Long Hao Chen, but in the end, he discovered that from the very beginning, he hadn't even touched a single corner of Long Hao Chen's clothes!
