[These direct disciples range from the Divine Transformation Realm to the Body Fusion Realm.]
[Of course, there are even stronger ones, but they are older and more powerful.]
[There's no need to call upon those in the Divine Transformation Realm for this battle.]
[At this moment, the young direct disciples all look remarkably similar.]
[Their raised chins seem almost to pierce the sky.]
[It can only be said, they truly belong to the same sect.]
[Seeing the demeanor of the direct disciples, Lu Jidao's face turned dark.]
[He shouted coldly, "Come down!"]
[Only then did the direct disciples restrain their arrogance and descend from the sky.]
[Among these direct disciples, only one man and one woman were in the Divine Transformation Realm.]
[However, this does not mean these two have the weakest talent.]
[On the contrary, their talent is the strongest among all the direct disciples.]
[They both honed a Ten-Grade Golden Core during the Foundation Establishment stage.]
[It was precisely the time spent refining their Golden Cores that caused their cultivation to not be as high as others.]
[But their foundations are the strongest!]
[They are also the disciples Lu Jidao favors the most.]
[But it's merely favor, nothing more.]
[After all, as the sect master of a second-rate sect, Lu Jidao knows that a Ten-Grade Golden Core is merely the entry requirement for an Inner Sect Disciple in a first-rate sect.]
[Indeed, three hundred million years ago, a Ten-Grade Golden Core was not rare.]
[After all, in this era, rare resources are not scarce.]
[It can be said that only by achieving a Ten-Grade Golden Core can one be considered a true Chosen.]
[This is merely the baseline for distinguishing a Chosen!]
[Lu Jidao looked at the two Divine Transformation Realm direct disciples and pointed to you in the secret realm, saying, "Who will challenge him?"]
["Sect Master, him? You want us to take action?" The female direct disciple glanced at you in the secret realm and said with some disdain.]
[This situation was not unexpected for Lu Jidao.]
[He is well aware of the demeanor of the sect's direct disciples.]
[After pondering for a moment, Lu Jidao pointed at you and said to the two, "Whoever defeats him will have their cultivation resources doubled!"]
[In truth, Lu Jidao is not certain you can win.]
[Your current displayed strength is indeed strong, but how you would fare against a true Chosen, he is unsure.]
[And, just as Lu Jidao was lost in thought, the female direct disciple had already rushed into the duel secret realm.]
[At the same time, the spectators instantly became excited.]
[They all saw that this female disciple of the Extreme Heaven Sect is a direct disciple.]
[In all these years of martial exchanges, no one has ever seen a direct disciple of the Extreme Heaven Sect take action.]
[For a moment, everyone was filled with anticipation.]
[Some even began to cheer for you.]
[Hoping you could hold on a bit longer, to let them enjoy the performance of a direct disciple of the Extreme Heaven Sect.]
[In an instant, the entire spectator square became lively.]
[Even Wang Fan, Liu Ming, and others who originally had some grievances against you, those who became withdrawn after being defeated by you, couldn't help but look towards the secret realm.]
[Originally waiting and dozing off, you felt someone entering the secret realm and immediately looked over.]
["Huh? A girl?"]
[Indeed, the first to rush into the duel secret realm was a girl about 18 or 19 years old.]
[You didn't let your guard down. Since the other party knows your previous achievements and still dares to come in, she must have some skills.]
[So, you used the Eye of Insight to probe her strength.]
[Su Mushuang: Direct disciple of the Extreme Heaven Sect, possesses unparalleled beauty, but due to her young age and limited experience, her combat ability is average!]
["What?" Your pupils shrank upon seeing her information!]
[This name is exactly the same as your unseen mother from the previous simulation.]
[Is it just a namesake? Or...?]
[For a moment, your mind was in turmoil.]
[And just as you were shocked and distracted, Su Mushuang was already attacking you.]
[She wasn't sneaking up; she simply didn't pay attention to you.]
[In her view, you were just there for her to earn cultivation resources.]
[So, upon entering, she attacked directly; the sooner she acted, the sooner it would end!]
[If it weren't for the sect master saying that defeating you would double her cultivation resources, she wouldn't even bother to duel you!]
[Even though she already knew you had defeated many others of the same realm before.]
[But she still didn't think a disciple from a ninth-rate sect like you could have any real strength.]
["Bang!"]
[In your moment of distraction, she struck you with a palm, causing a trickle of blood to flow from the corner of your mouth.]
