Chapter 724: Chapter 715: Outstanding Figures Gather
"Indeed, he has come!"
Watching the figure in white approaching from afar and finally arriving above the square, everyone began discussing fervently.
"Today, can Li Hentian truly reach the hundredth floor of the Ancient God Tower?"
This was the most puzzling issue in everyone’s hearts. Clearly, for someone who could be called the greatest genius of the Human Clan in this era, they naturally wanted to see if he could break this Near Ancient legend and obtain the coveted Divine Qi.
"Yao Suming..."
Li Hentian stood suspended in the void, and as soon as he arrived, his gaze locked onto a direction below in the square, finally settling on Yao Suming, who exuded a certain demonic aura.
"Didn’t expect to see you again so soon," Yao Suming narrowed his eyes, staring back as he spoke indifferently.
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire crowd was in an uproar, and many people looked surprised.
"Have the two of them met before?"
"Yao Suming seems to have only recently appeared, how does he know Li Hentian?"
"You are very powerful. During our battle that day, neither of us could overcome the other. I wonder if you have grown in the past two months?" Amid the discussions of the crowd, Li Hentian spoke again.
His words made the crowd on the square completely boil.
"What?!"
"Li Hentian and Yao Suming had a confrontation before?"
"When did this happen? Why have I not heard of it?"
The crowd was full of surprise; Yao Suming, being a scion of the Ancient Demon Gods, even among all the young talents of the Ancient Royal Families, there are hardly a few who could be compared with him.
On the other hand, Li Hentian was the top genius on the Human Clan’s Ancient God List, also a rare talent throughout the ages.
Unexpectedly, it was these two individuals who had a clash, and yet the world had not heard any news about it.
"Li Hentian has already proven himself as a Void Immortal, comparable to a great power of a Saint Master. Unexpectedly, just as the rumors stated, Yao Suming, without entering the Immortal Realm, had managed to fiercely compete with a Great Power from the Immortal Realm!"
Everyone was shaken; from their conversation, they also learned that the initial battle had probably ended in a draw.
Li Hentian was already in the Void Immortal realm, and Yao Suming was only at the Emperor Realm Great Mahayana Cultivation, but the two had fought to a draw, which showed, in a way, that Li Hentian might be weaker than Yao Suming.
If their Cultivation had been the same, Li Hentian might have been defeated.
Thinking this, many Human Clan Practitioners looked slightly solemn; this undoubtedly indicated that, to this day, the Ancient Clan still had an edge over the Human Clan.
"There has indeed been growth. I have grasped the supreme Law and will soon prove myself as a Void Immortal. At that time, I wish to test your strength again," Yao Suming said, his gaze piercing as he stared at Li Hentian in midair.
"I’ll be waiting," Li Hentian squinted his eyes; from their battle that day, he also felt that Yao Suming, although not yet stepping into the Immortal Realm, was not far off. Hearing that the other was preparing to break through to Void Immortal, he wasn’t too surprised.
On the contrary, he felt some anticipation; if they were at the same realm and he were to battle Yao Suming again, what would the outcome be?
"Speaking of which, among the current generation of talents of your Human Clan, you, Li Hentian, are the only one who has sparked my interest," Yao Suming suddenly said with a laugh.
Upon hearing this, many Human Clan Practitioners furrowed their brows slightly.
The implication of their words was nothing less than a slight on the Human Clan, asserting that Li Hentian was the only true match for the genius of the Ancient Clan in this era, and no one else was worth considering.
"Arrogant!"
At this moment, a man in red stood out from the crowd, his gaze indifferent as he swept over Yao Suming, "Are you not looking down on all the talents of our Human Clan?"
"Are you Duan Qianqing?"
Yao Suming smiled, recognizing him, "Coming from the Southern Immortal Domain, you indeed count as someone noteworthy, but still, you fall short compared to me."
"Boasting shamelessly, do you dare to fight me?" Duan Qianqing narrowed his eyes, already intent on making a move in the face of Yao Suming’s challenge.
"It’s not that I dare not, but that I do not wish to."
Yao Suming shook his head, "Fighting you holds no meaning unless you can prove yourself as a Void Immortal this very moment; otherwise, you are no opponent to me. In all the heavens, apart from Li Hentian, I have no interest in any other talent of the Human Clan."
Although his words were mild, they clearly reached everyone present, causing many faces among the Human Clan Practitioners to turn to anger.
"Too arrogant, our Human Clan has countless geniuses, are they all unworthy of his recognition?"
"To belittle even Duan Qianqing, who is known on the Ancient God List, this person must be either insanely arrogant or utterly clueless," someone snorted coldly.
"Heh, typical of the Yao Clan, such arrogance, no different from Yao Wuliang."
From within the crowd, Mo Wangchen coldly chuckled, spotting the typical arrogance of the Yao Clan in Yao Suming, the same traits that were seemingly inherent and present in Yao Wuliang.
No wonder there were rumors that the Qiongqi lineage and the Demon God lineage were of the same clan. Now it seems there might indeed be such a possibility.
"Now, before you have even proven to be a Void Immortal, you wish to look down on the talents of our Human Clan, isn’t it a bit too early for that?"
At this moment, a faint voice came from the crowd.
"Wang Tao!"
"The new Divine Son recently announced by the Wang Family of the East Immortal Domain!"
"It’s said he was kept hidden; now that the Heavenly God academy is open, the Wang family has finally let him emerge. I didn’t expect him to be here too."
Many gasped, recognizing the young man who stepped forward from the crowd as the widely talked-about new Divine Son of the Wang Family, Wang Tao!
"So, you are Wang Tao?"
Yao Suming slightly narrowed his eyes, staring directly at him, clearly having heard much about Wang Tao’s name recently.
This person had a piece of the Wang Family’s ancestral Divine Bone fused within him, mastered myriad Dao Techniques, and had a Body strong enough to contend with Ancient True Dragons.
"With Wang Tao from the East Immortal Domain, Duan Qianqing from the Southern Immortal Domain, the Bodhi Divine Son from the Western Immortal Domain who has already proven to be a Void Immortal, and Li Hentian from Central State, our Human Clan’s talents cannot be exhausted, let alone despised by you," Duan Qianqing, Wang Tao, and others appeared, and many Human Clan Practitioners spoke as such. Yao Suming was too arrogant, making everyone uneasy.
"Don’t forget, there is also a Divine King Body in the Northern Immortal Domain, a Saint Master Great Power, even your Ancient Clan’s Ancient King can hardly slay him, yet you dare to belittle the elite of our Human Clan. Are you not deluding yourself here?" someone snorted coldly.
"No matter how much you say, it’s still just what you think. How strong I am, Li Hentian is the clearest about this. Any Divine King Body, if any such person who carries the forbidden bloodline dares to appear, I must cleanse this world’s beings by eradicating him posthaste," Yao Suming responded with a cold laugh.
