Chapter 1061: No Chance At All

Ao Sheng made exaggerated strokes with his brush and wrote Luo Tian’s name into the roster of participants for the selection exam.

However, the string of numbers behind Luo Tian’s name was very long. It was obvious that the number he received meant he was in last place. If Luo Tian manages to pass the first few rounds, he will face a cultivator with the strongest cultivation out of everyone in the final battle.

Naturally, Ao Sheng deliberately wrote down such a ranking.

When Luo Tian saw the number, he grinned, “54088 sounds like a homophone of I am your father. Hahaha... This number is really amusing.”

Before Ao Sheng could respond, Luo Tian added, “Lord Ao, I am not talking about you. I just think the number is kind of funny, hahaha...”

Luo Tian had a playful smirk on his face when he said that.

Even though he was justifying himself, the meaning behind his words was telling Ao Sheng that he was his daddy!

Ao Sheng smiled, “That is your identity tablet, which means you are now qualified to participate in the selection exam.”

Ao Sheng then swept his gaze across the plaza, cleared his voice, and said, “I will give you all three days to prepare. Three days later, everyone will gather back here. I will reveal the chosen venue for your exam. In Towering Cloud City, only ten participants can proceed to the second exam. I hope that all of you will give it your best and achieve good results.”

After saying that, Ao Sheng looked at Luo Tian and said playfully, “Luo Tian, I hope you won’t disappoint me.”

His eyes were filled with naked killing intent.

Luo Tian gave him the same smile and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t disappoint. But I’m worried that I won’t disappoint myself while you end up feeling disappointed.”

“Humph~!” Ao Sheng sneered before flicking his sleeves and returning back inside the branch courtyard.

The yellow-robed old man followed him in.

At this time, the Bai family disciples were cheering in joy.

Who could accomplish breaking through into the Condensation Element realm in five hours?

Luo Tian had gained a lot of glory for the Bai family, but the disciples of the other four major families in Towering Cloud City were dejected. Luo Tian could deal with Martial Void experts before his breakthrough, so how would they be his match now? This meant that there were only nine slots left in the first round of the examination.

Ao Sheng sneered, “Did you see how happy he was when I told him he was qualified to participate in the examination? Did you see how happy those people from the Bai family were? When a person is the most spirited and the most complacent, you then drop them down the abyss of despair. Do you think his heart would shatter into ashes? I think that kind of feeling would be the best!”

When the yellow-robed old man glanced at Ao Sheng’s expression, an inexplicable fear welled up in his heart. He then said to himself, “What a pervert!”

Ao Sheng continued saying, “Doesn’t he want to participate in the selection exam? Then, let him participate. Once he enters that place, do you think he can leave there alive? Heh heh... That place is my territory. I can take his life any time I want. Isn’t that the equivalent of him never having participated in the examination? The Hai family will not blame us, and the Ephemeral Sword will still end up being yours.”

This was the reason Ao Sheng was letting Luo Tian participate in the selection exam.

In order to control Luo Tian, he had to let him enter his territory. Once that happens, he can do whatever he wants!

The yellow-robed old man smiled, “Brother Ao, that’s a pretty good move. But I heard that he managed to defeat the Hai family’s second young master. You should know that apart from the Hai family’s prince, the second young master is a disciple with the strongest talent and is already at the peak of the Martial Void realm. Can you really do it?”

Ao Sheng narrowed his eyes, “I naturally have a solution...”

At this time, Ao Sheng’s gaze turned lustful when he thought of Bai Lingling’s wonderful figure. He slurped back his drool and said, “The people of the Bai family are his weakness. Young Master Hai is too young; he doesn’t understand that dealing with people like Luo Tian requires some unique means, heh heh...”

The moment he realized he had lost the bet, Ao Sheng was already forming a perfect plan.

Ao Sheng’s gaze reverted back to normal as he said, “Brother Huang, come with me. I’m going to meet with the patriarchs of the other four great families.”

Towering Cloud City, Bai family.

Bai Qi was somewhat worried.

In fact, a part of him was hoping Luo Tian would lose the bet today and give his Heaven Sword to Ao Sheng. This scenario would put the whole matter to rest. Even if Luo Tian wasn’t qualified to participate in this year’s examination, he would still have the chance to do so next year.

But now, Luo Tian had no chance whatsoever.

It wasn’t just him; the other three participants representing the Bai family didn’t stand a chance either.

He was very clear about the first round of the examination, the one that seemed the easiest to pass out of the entire exam. Ten would be selected out of the thirty or so. There was a 33% chance of passing. But now, this round had become the hardest of the entire exam because it was going to be in Ao Sheng’s territory.
