Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

As he finished speaking, he turned his head to look at the four large screens, mouth open, taking a deep breath.

"Now, I announce..."

"First Stage, ranked first in individual standings—First Monster, Su Baliu!"

As these words fell, the crowd immediately revealed smiles.

This Emperor Mu Hua has caught onto the trend, using the title that everyone just started calling out immediately.

It seems that for his already designated future son-in-law, Emperor Mu Hua is extremely attentive!

"Second Stage, ranked first in individual standings—First Monster, Su Baliu!"

"Third Stage, ranked first in individual standings—First Monster, Su Baliu!"

"Fourth Stage, ranked first in individual standings—First Monster, Su Baliu!"

"So, the final rankings have already been decided."

"In this Heavenly Talent Championship, the champion is—ranked first across all four stages, Su Baliu!"

Swish, swish, swish—

Many gazes, as countless times before, again fell upon Su Han.

They had all known the result long ago, but when the word ’champion’ was announced from Emperor Mu Hua’s mouth, the shock was still overwhelming.

In past Heavenly Talent Championships, champions were always decided through four stages of competition, ultimately comprehensively selected.

That kind of selection sometimes made other heavenly talents feel unfair and required many comprehensive factors.

But this time, it was simply unnecessary.

First Monster Su Baliu was first in all four challenges, well-deserved!

This champion title, if he doesn’t take it, who else is qualified to take it?

...

Then, Emperor Mu Hua glanced at the Immortal King Sect, and said, "The heavenly talents of the Immortal King Sect, with absolute strength, swept through other sects, just like Su Baliu, ranked first in all four stages, so..."

"In this Heavenly Talent Championship, sect champion—Immortal King Sect!"

"Boom!!!"

Inside the Immortal King Sect, an uproar ascended to the sky, completely erupting!

How long has it been?

Waiting for this day, how long has it been?

Two million two hundred thousand years!!!

What they were waiting for initially was not the championship.

The word ’champion’, they had never dared to wish for it, and simply didn’t dare to wish for it!

What they wanted was merely for the Immortal King Sect to enter the top twenty, or even, the top thirty, top forty, even top fifty!

Just not like before, always accompanying the Qing Emperor Sect, consistently at the bottom among the Three Teachings, Nine Schools, and Seventy-Two Sects!

However— 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

This time, this year’s Heavenly Talent Championship!

Amidst countless initial disbelief, and even waves of mocking gazes and words, Nine Shadows Young Master, along with Ling Xiao, Ye Xiaofei, and three others emerged!

With awe-inspiring aptitude, terrifying battle power, astonishing willpower, and a mind capable of comprehending the Grand Dao!

Successfully crushed all heavenly talents, swept away all enemies, helping the Immortal King Sect all the way to defy the odds, until finally, taking first place!

"We are first, my Immortal King Sect is first..."

"Hahahaha... I, why do I feel a surge of emotions to cry?"

"First place in the Heavenly Talent Championship, the champion!!!"

"From now on, who dares to laugh at my Immortal King Sect? Who dares to insult us? Who dares to say that we can only be at the bottom in the Heavenly Talent Championship?!"

"Individual first and sect first combined... And in the individual rankings, not only Su Baliu, but also bronze-medalist Ling Xiao, and Ye Xiaofei who fell to sixth due to bad luck!!!"

"Indeed, if Ye Xiaofei hadn’t become Su Baliu’s opponent, how could she have conceded? This bronze medal would certainly have been hers!"

"We’re satisfied, even so, my Immortal King Sect is satisfied..."

Ten thousand disciples, countless people spoke out, their voices completely hoarse and roaring.

Their faces flushed red, sweeping their gazes over other sects, they all raised those heads which had been lowered, revealing that suppressed pride that was about to dissipate!

Immortal King Sect first, they had the right to look down on others!

Under such gazes, no one dared to utter words like ’Su Baliu is not a member of Immortal King Sect’.

What a joke, anyone who says that at this moment is a fool!

Did the Immortal King Sect know beforehand that Su Baliu was that Nine Shadows Young Master Su Baliu?

They did not know!

But they had the soul power to let Su Baliu be the leader in this Heavenly Talent Championship for the Immortal King Sect!

If it were any other sect, would they have had this soul power?

Absolutely not!

Let alone letting Su Han be the leader, it would have been quite good if they didn’t drive Su Han and others out like Qing Emperor Sect did!

The Immortal King Sect, they have this soul power and foresight.

Therefore, Su Han willingly served them in this Heavenly Talent Championship.

—This is the true strength of the Immortal King Sect!

"If the first Sect Master knew this result, he would rest easy beneath the Nine Springs, and reincarnation would be content..."

Yuchi Tiannan spoke, murmuring to himself.

On his face, at this moment appeared aged lines, like that of a former middle-aged appearance, only because this breath belonging to the Immortal King Sect haven’t been reclaimed.

This aging was not due to loneliness and desolation, but because... excitement and relief!

"If I had known earlier, I would have dragged the Sect Master over no matter what to watch."

Yuchi Tiannan murmured again, then shook his head with a smile: "But it doesn’t matter, anyway there is the Memory Crystal, I have already recorded everything."

...

Two full hours, a complete two hours.

Emperor Mu Hua gave Immortal King Sect plenty of time to celebrate, and also gave Qing Emperor Sect ample time to regret.

After two hours, he said again: "In the Heavenly Talent Championship, individual rankings from first to fiftieth all have rewards."

"Sect rankings, from first to tenth also have rewards."

"You all actually know these rewards, but I still have to announce them, however, to save time, I will only announce the rewards for individual first and sect first."

Upon hearing this, Su Han couldn’t help but take a deep breath, the corners of his mouth lifting.

Taking the risk of offending all heavenly talents, even all forces, was for this first-place reward.

And now, it’s finally here.

"Individual first-ranking rewards are as follows—"

"Ten trillion Spirit Crystals, one Lower Fifth Grade Pill, one High-Grade Netherworld Artifact, entry to the Three Emperor Mountain, immersion for twenty years!"

"Furthermore, Qing Emperor Sect must open the Soul Cleansing Pool, Divine Dao Religion must open the Altar of the Divine Dao, Sect of the Supreme Void must also open the Supreme Space for the champion to use for a year!"

Saying this, Emperor Mu Hua paused slightly, his gaze swept over the Three Teachings, his tone became heavier.

"It is not that this Lord favors Su Baliu, but this is the rule; since ancient times, the champion of the Heavenly Talent Championship should be so."

"This Lord, as the arbiter of this Heavenly Talent Championship, naturally must achieve true fairness and justice, and if anyone causes trouble... then don’t blame this Lord for turning hostile!"
