I tricked you into thinking you had the makings of an emperor, but you actually did it?

“Then you will have to fight the Sage King,” said the Antarctic Immortal.

The number of Saint Kings in the Sixth Realm exceeds six.

Those who remain will definitely compete for the Ascension Token, even though Shen Ming has shown strength that is no weaker than Di Nan's.

"Moreover, the treatment of those who were personally led up by the six Dao Lords was different from that of those who went up with twelve Ascension Tokens."

This is what the Old Man of the South Pole truly cares about.

"I know," Shen Ming said, his mind made up.

Before his test, Li Miaozhen was willing to give up going to Wuliangtian for herself.

The two are Daoist partners, cultivating the Twin Green Lotus Technique together.

When one side makes progress, the other side will also benefit.

Naturally, we should strive to maximize our common interests.

"Alright then." The Old Man of the South Pole said nothing more.

Once Shen Ming and the Antarctic Immortal emerged, the next test was over.

Everyone stood in a row, waiting for the Dao Master to make his selection.

Huang Xiangu made it clear that she would choose Qin Yuehua, and Shen Ming would definitely take up one spot as well, leaving four spots remaining.

Just as everyone was thinking this, Shen Ming returned to the round platform with a golden light.

The other five Dao Lords inquired about the results from the ship on the other shore with the Antarctic Immortal.

"He is already my disciple from Penglai," the Antarctic Immortal said proudly.

"mean!"

"Shameless!"

"ordinary man!"

The other Dao Lords were furious, convinced that he had made all sorts of promises to deceive Shen Ming, so much so that Shen Ming didn't even have time to state his terms.

"Of course, such a genius cannot be missed."

The Old Man of the South Pole did not explain that Shen Ming made the direct choice, but rather acknowledged it.

To avoid other Dao Lords having opinions about Shen Ming.

Nevertheless, he keenly noticed a glint in Master Ji's eyes.

Master Ji chuckled and said, "Congratulations, fellow Daoist. Why didn't you take him as your disciple directly?"

“I’m ashamed to say that I can’t understand his Dao foundation,” said the Antarctic Immortal.

The other Dao Lords, who were about to calm down, became agitated again.

"If you don't understand, why don't you show it to us? Isn't this just wasting our time?"

They've all become disciples of Penglai, so they can't take on any more disciples even if they want to.

"If you can understand it, then just read it directly."

The Old Man of the South Pole threw the Dao Foundation Stone over, and the content that was revealed had not yet dissipated.

The other Dao Lords were unconvinced and devoted their energy to figuring out how to make a name for themselves in the matter.

A few minutes later, they were all dizzy and complaining.

They couldn't understand it, but they were deeply shocked.

"With such a vast amount of knowledge, how did you manage to become a first-rate expert in the lower realm?" a Daoist master asked, puzzled.

"I can't even tell what he specializes in." Master Ji's eyes softened.

Since no one can teach that, there's no such thing as missing out.

"Esteemed Dao Lords, please make your choice."

On the high platform, a woman from the Other Shore Cult spoke.

Upon hearing this, everyone fell into a solemn silence, looking up at the imposing figures of the six Dao Lords, not daring to utter a sound.

Just as she had said at the beginning, the Daoist Master Huang Xiangu chose Qin Yuehua.

Master Ji chose Luo Chen from the Supreme Immortal Palace.

Luo Chen seemed to have known all along, so he wasn't surprised and remained calm.

As the Antarctic Immortal stepped forward, all eyes turned to Shen Ming.

"Then I choose Li Miaozhen."

The Old Man of the South Pole seemed to anticipate the reaction, and smiled meaningfully.

Ok? !

The other Dao Lords and their subordinates were all taken aback.

Li Miaozhen herself was also surprised. With Shen Ming's nod of encouragement, she stood on the other side as the third person.

"Is the Holy Emperor giving up the spot to his Daoist partner and competing for the twelve Ascension Tokens himself?"

Others could easily see this, but they were surprised that Shen Ming had such courage.

If we fail to win the bid, wouldn't we be handing over a tremendous opportunity?

“Brother Antarctic Daoist, then you can’t accept him as a disciple of Penglai.”

The other three Dao Lords who had not yet made a decision were very distressed.

They could certainly choose Shen Ming, but he's already a disciple of Penglai.

Finally, the fourth person chosen was Su Yan from the Sword Palace, and the fifth person was Mo Wentian.

Hahahahahaha!

Suddenly, Mo Wentian burst into maniacal laughter, startling everyone.

"This story about mending the sky and teaching one's son is a bit strange today."

Some people frowned.

Mo Wentian had experienced great ups and downs today and couldn't control himself, which is why he reacted this way.

The final sixth person, to everyone's surprise, was Yunxi from the Jietian Sect!

In the test just now, Yunxi did not show any amazing phenomena.

However, her power of the Four Symbols is approaching that of a Saint King, and she is the same age as Shen Ming!

A contemporary saintly king!?

If she hadn't always kept a low profile, her reputation might have been no less than Shen Ming's.

Shen Ming was taken aback, then realized that Yun Xi, having lived two lives, had a unique advantage in this regard.

The power of the Four Symbols requires time to comprehend, but this person had already cultivated it in their previous life.

For others, such progress is terrifying.

The final six people selected are Qin Yuehua, Luo Chen, Li Miaozhen, Mo Wentian, and Yun Xi.

Many more Saint Kings were not selected, including Di Nan, Jun Lin, Feng Chen, Lin Changsheng, and others.

Fortunately, the remaining twelve Ascension Tokens were almost certainly theirs.

"May I ask, Fairy, should we select the twelve strongest individuals, or should we follow the arena format, where those eliminated are permanently disqualified?"

The first to ask a question was Di Nan, who kept his eyes on Shen Ming as he spoke, making his meaning very clear.

"Based on your performance in the test just now, and the number of people, we will randomly conduct two competitions. You need to win both. Those who win one and lose one can compete again," said a woman from the Other Shore Cult.

Di Nan snorted coldly. With such competition rules, the twelve strongest people would inevitably be selected.

Based on Shen Ming's demonstrated combat prowess, he will definitely stand out. Even if you clash with him, you can fight him again through other people.

"Consider you lucky."

“No, if he runs into our hands one after another, he will be eliminated,” Junlin said.

In today's conflict, neither the Blazing God nor the Immortal Lord died; only the Divine Lord of their Heavenly God Academy perished.

Although he died by Zhang Juezhi's sword, the real culprit was Shen Ming's great formation.

Therefore, Junlin's hatred was no less than Di Nan's.

Suddenly, Shen Ming reached out and interrupted the two women from the Other Shore Cult.

"You said."

Because Shen Ming is now a disciple of Penglai, they were all very polite to him.

"In general, you win two matches to advance, and lose two matches to be eliminated, right?" Shen Ming asked.

"Yes."

It's obvious that Shen Ming must have had another meaning behind asking this.

Then Shen Ming smiled slightly and pointed at Di Nan and Jun Lin.

“If I fight both of them at the same time, and I win, it counts as two wins; if they lose, it counts as two losses, and both of them are eliminated,” Shen Ming said.

Those who reacted quickly stared wide-eyed, while those who were a beat slower pondered the meaning of the words.

Moments later, thunderous sounds resounded throughout the sky and the ground.

Shen Ming is going to fight two Saint Kings?!

Emperor Nan and Emperor Lin were furious; neither of them had ever suffered such humiliation.

However, they were in no hurry to speak up, because this was their only chance to eliminate Shen Ming.

"If both parties agree, that's fine."

While waiting, the Other Shore Cult agreed to this approach.
