Great Xia: At the start, summon the Net of Heaven to suppress the martial arts world.

After the two finished fighting, the Elder of Punishment hurriedly stepped forward, looked at them with questioning eyes, and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that they were unharmed.

If the Holy Son suffers any loss on this trip, I will have a hard time explaining it to the Ancestor when I return.

As the Elder of Punishment, he was all too aware of the Holy Son's importance within the Holy Land of No Delusion.

As the person with the greatest potential to become an immortal in the Boundless Holy Land, his safety is a matter of life and death for the Holy Land.

Seeing that the Holy Son was unharmed, the Elder of Punishments bowed slightly to Gai Nie in thanks.

Upon seeing this, Gai Nie gave a slight response and then turned and left.

Before departing, the Holy Son of the Boundless Holy Land, who had been lost in thought for a long time, suddenly spoke:

"May I ask your esteemed name?"

As the number one young person in the outside world, he was defeated by a young man in the Nine Domains. This was a great blow to the Holy Son of the Boundless Holy Land.

Especially Gai Nie's final sword strike; even long after the battle ended, the Holy Son of the Wuwang Holy Land still harbors some fear in his heart.

Faced with such an unsolvable move, even now, the Holy Son of the Boundless Holy Land has no way to break it.

Upon hearing this, Gai Nie paused slightly, left a sentence, and then disappeared from everyone's sight.

"I am Gai Nie of the Guigu School!"

"Gai Nie?" Only after Gai Nie's figure had completely disappeared did the Holy Son of the Boundless Holy Land withdraw his gaze. He murmured to himself.

Seeing that the battle was over, the city gate, which had been packed with people, gradually dispersed.

For these ordinary people, watching the game was a real treat.

The disciples of the Wuwang Holy Land hurriedly stepped forward and stopped not far from the two Wuwang Holy Land disciples. They wanted to say something to comfort them, but were interrupted by the Elder of Punishment. So everyone watched quietly as the Holy Son of the Wuwang Holy Land fell into deep thought.

After the group stood there eerily outside the city gate for a long time, the Holy Son of the Boundless Holy Land finally came to his senses.

Seeing this, the elder of criminal law hesitated for a moment before speaking calmly:

"Victory and defeat are normal occurrences, why dwell on them?"

"If we remain mired in defeat, how can we have the confidence to defeat this person in the future?"

Upon hearing this, the Holy Son of the Boundless Holy Land nodded silently, naturally aware of what the Elder of Punishment had said.

But even knowing this, the Holy Son of the Boundless Holy Land still felt somewhat disappointed.

The more important thing now is that even after the battle ends, the Holy Son of the Boundless Holy Land, after reviewing the situation, still sees no possibility of defeating this person.

Now, Gai Nie's name stands like a mountain, blocking the path of the Holy Son of the Wuwang Holy Land.

"Forget it, to avoid any unforeseen complications, let's go back to the Holy Land!"

Since he couldn't figure it out, the Holy Son of the Boundless Holy Land stopped thinking about it, shook his head at the Elder of Punishments, and prepared to return to the Holy Land.

Not long after Gai Nie's battle with the Holy Son of Wuwang Holy Land ended, news of the Holy Son's defeat spread throughout the entire outer realm.

In the current Grandmaster rankings of the Chinese mainland, Gai Nie is already number one, so his victory is not surprising; on the contrary, it enhances the prestige of the Great Xia Kingdom.

The battle between the number one young talent in the Nine Realms and the number one young talent in the outside world is naturally a point of focus for outsiders.

In an instant, new gods rose and old gods fell. Gai Nie stepped on the title of Holy Son of the Wuwang Holy Land, and the name of the Sword Saint resounded throughout the Nine Realms.

As the news spread, outsiders could see from this alone that the martial arts traditions within the Chinese mainland were no weaker than those outside.

Thousands of years of isolationism did not cause the martial arts tradition of the Chinese mainland to regress; on the contrary, it led to progress.

As soon as this news came out, more and more people from the outside world flocked to the Chinese mainland, and the Great Xia Dynasty became famous overnight.

On the contrary, after this battle, the prestige of the Holy Land of No Delusion declined considerably.

As the news spread, those who were among the first to flock to the Chinese mainland became increasingly grateful for the decision they had made.

The Great Xia Dynasty possesses such a profound foundation, and its strength is clearly unmatched by ordinary forces.

Inside the Imperial Study in the capital city of the Great Xia Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, Gai Nie has won the battle against the Holy Son of the Wuwang Holy Land!"

Upon receiving the message from Tianji Pavilion, Cao Zhengchun immediately reported the good news to Xia Taige.

Upon hearing this, Xia Taige showed no surprise, but instead nodded calmly.

Xia Taige had great faith in Gai Nie's strength, and when he sent Gai Nie to challenge him, he never thought that Gai Nie would lose.

Receiving this news now was clearly within their expectations.

"Where is Gai Nie now? Is there any chance for him to break through to the Land Immortal Realm?" Xia Taige was clearly more concerned about the outcome of the battle and whether Gai Nie had any intention of breaking through after this battle.

Now, of the original Grandmaster peak level people, only his two senior brothers remain, and Xia Taige is somewhat anxious about them.

"Your Majesty, according to Gai Nie's message, after this battle, he has already made some progress in breaking through to the realm of a terrestrial immortal and has now gone into seclusion!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Taige breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, saying:

"Since this method is effective, issue an edict allowing Wei Zhuang to make his own decision. If he needs to go to the outside world, he can choose a servant from the Hall of Worship to accompany him until he breaks through to the realm of a terrestrial immortal!"

Given Wei Zhuang's competitive nature, he would definitely feel resentful if he didn't break through to the realm of terrestrial immortals along with Gai Nie as soon as possible.

In response, Xia Taige had no choice but to lend him a hand.

"Yes! I will remember!" Cao Zhengchun bowed slightly in response.

"By the way, do the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion and the Zhenwu Division have any intelligence about the Nine Xu Dynasty?" Several days later, Xia Taige suddenly remembered that the Nine Xu Dynasty still hadn't made any moves.

"Your Majesty, according to reports from the Tianji Pavilion and the Zhenwu Division, the Jiuxu Dynasty does not seem to intend to send experts to retaliate."

"I imagine that the Nine Emperors Dynasty will not act rashly before knowing the true strength of our dynasty," Cao Zhengchun replied.

Upon hearing this, Xia Taige nodded, thinking that it made sense.

Since the Nine Emperors Dynasty has reached its current position, its rulers are certainly not fools.

If it were truly because of the death of a prince and a powerful cultivator at the Land Immortal Realm that they rashly came to the Great Xia Dynasty for revenge, even the Nine Stars Dynasty would not have gone to such lengths.

Nowadays, they would rather damage the prestige of the Nine Emperors Dynasty than get involved with the many forces outside.

Knowing this, Xia Taige was still somewhat disappointed.

Originally, Xia Taige thought that if the Jiuxu Dynasty attacked, the Great Xia Dynasty would annihilate it swiftly with overwhelming force, demonstrating the prestige of the Great Xia Dynasty in one battle.

Unexpectedly, the Nine Emperors Dynasty backed down at this crucial moment.

This caused Xia Taige's plans to fall through, leaving him feeling somewhat helpless.

"Alright, let the Tianji Pavilion and the Zhenwu Division's secret agents keep a close eye on things. If there's any movement, report back immediately!" Xia Taige casually instructed.

"Yes!" Upon hearing this, Cao Zhengchun immediately bowed and agreed.
