Chapter 474 - King of the Newcomers

Long Chen grinned. “Lord Demon King, you’re jumping to conclusions. Is murdering a disciple of the Ancient Demon Domain the only way that I could have learned your secret techniques?”

The crowd was completely impressed by Long Chen’s boldness to speak to the Red Ghost King like that. Everyone strained their ears to listen to the conversation.

“If you didn’t kill one of our disciples, how could you have learned them?” he demanded.

“Alright ...” Long Chen had no choice but to take out a black token. It was the one Zhao Qingyun had given him when he left the Cangyang Kingdom. It was an identity token with the name “Guang Yuan,” who was their ancestral master.

“I’m sure you know what this is?”

“That is an identity token of the Ancient Demon Domain!” The Red Ghost King raised his eyebrows, and a wave of heat hit Long Chen. He then said with a smirk, “Kid, you have an Ancient Demon Domain disciple’s identity token! Does that not prove that you’ve killed that person?”

Long Chen was also studying the Red Ghost King. Despite being powerful, he was not very smart. The other six Demon Kings had not even said anything, and he was the only one who had rushed to the stage.

However, since the Red Ghost King was being unreasonable, Long Chen could only do his best to explain himself. As long as he could convince this guy, the sixty thousand Heavenly Passage Pills would be his.

“Please calm down, Demon King.” Long Chen held up the metal token. “The name on the token is Guang Yuan. You may check if there has been a disciple named Guang Yuan in the Ancient Demon Domain in the past one hundred years.”

“What do you mean by that?” asked the Red Ghost King furiously.

“It’s simple. This disciple named Guang Yuan was indeed initially from the Ancient Demon Domain, but he left this place and settled down in a random tiny kingdom in the Ten Thousand Nations Territory. There, he founded a small sect as a minor branch of the Ancient Demon Domain, and it has survived until today. I am but a disciple of the leader of that small sect. Because I was successful in cultivation, I wanted to come to the Divine Martial Empire to further grow in the Ancient Demon Domain. If you do not believe me, Lord Demon King, you can investigate this matter.”

Long Chen was telling nothing but the truth. The Supreme Demon Sword was only an initial Heaven-tier technique, and many people who were not from the Ancient Demon Domain could use it.

The Red Ghost King was only here to look for trouble. Since Long Chen had evidence, the Red Ghost King would likely be scolded by the Domain Lord if he continued this. Therefore, he nodded impatiently and said, “Since you did not kill a disciple of the Ancient Demon Domain, I’ve got nothing else to say.”

Then he disappeared. When he reappeared, he was back in his seat.

Long Chen was a little traumatized.

Judging by how unreasonable the Red Ghost King was, Long Chen would likely have died if he hadn’t thought to use Guang Yuan’s identity token.

When Demon General Typhoon saw this, he could only announce, “The finalists from every stage have been determined! They are Jiang Cheng ...

When Jiang Cheng’s name was called, Zhao Wuji knew that he had lost all hope. He had initially aimed to be the three-time champion, but he had only ended up taking second place in the first two rounds. In the third round, he had failed to enter the top seven. Zhao Wuji wanted to kill himself.

He descended the stage dejectedly with his head hung low. With a dark and terrifying look on his face, he clenched his fists tightly.

Demon General Typhoon announced the names of the other six finalists.

“Congratulations to you all! You are now in the top seven. Soon, you all will be lucky enough to be picked by the seven Demon Kings to become their direct disciples. As for who will become which Demon King’s disciple, it will depend on your luck! Now, we must determine the top three. Everyone, get on stage number one!”

The finalists made their way to the first stage. One of them was Huangfu Qi, who was overjoyed that Long Chen had also won. She ran up to him happily with her hands on her cheeks and stars in her eyes, then cried admiringly, “Big Brother! You’re so awesome! You beat that jerk so hard, he peed his pants!”

“Aren’t you awesome too, Qi Qi? No one was a match for you in your group,” said Long Chen with a grin, pinching her cheek.

“You’re bullying me! Hmph! But I’m no match for you, Big Brother,” Huangfu Qi said.

Both of them stood closely together, but the other five were far away.

Demon General Typhoon announced that the fight for the top three places had officially begun. Everyone knew Long Chen’s strength, and based on the attack he had used on Zhao Wuji, no one present could withstand it. Especially not when he was on very good terms with Huangfu Qi, who was widely considered the third-strongest present and also the number one prodigy.

If the other five did not attack them together, no one could withstand them working together. Even so, there was no guarantee that they would win.

Therefore, the other five decided to give up on fighting Long Chen and Huangfu Qi. The five of them fought among themselves in order to decide who would take third place.

Long Chen had long known it would end up like this. After defeating Zhao Wuji, he knew he would be the champion.

After a while, the fight ended. They had gotten the best results and had become the Demon Kings’ disciples. They were set for life, so there was no need to work too hard here. Third place was only awarded five thousand Heavenly Passage Pills, so there was no need to risk their lives.

A winner had emerged, and a panting teenager remained on the stage. He was about Zhao Wuji’s age, and compared to him, he merely lacked an advanced Heaven-tier technique. He had indeed rightly earned third place.

He was no match for Long Chen and Huangfu Qi, so he made the smart choice to descend the stage. After that, Huangfu Qi grinned mischievously. “Big Brother, I’m not lacking Heavenly Passage Pills and you look like you really need them. I’ll give it to you!”

Then she skipped down the stage.

Only Long Chen remained. All eyes were on him.

The dark horse had appeared out of nowhere and became the three-time champion!

Most importantly, he was only at the First Passage Stage!

Long Chen’s victory today would become a popular topic among the Ancient Demon Domain disciples. There were many people watching in the surrounding mountains after all. The name “Jiang Cheng” would spread across the entire Ancient Demon Domain.

He was only a newcomer, yet he had created a huge storm with his excellent results.

Long Chen enjoyed the gazes of the large crowd.

The King of Newcomers. I think this term suits me very much. Long Chen smiled to himself in exasperation.

Demon General Typhoon’s booming voice announced the names of the top three. Since Long Chen was the three-time champion, Demon General Typhoon mentioned his name several times!

Long Chen was very satisfied with becoming champion, but he knew that great masters were lurking in the Ancient Demon Domain. There were many people watching him who were a lot more powerful. He was only the king of newcomers, so he did not even have the right to speak up in the Ancient Demon Domain.

“The qualifiers have finally come to an end. Congratulations to you seventy people, especially the ones in the top seven! From today onwards, you will begin your journey of true cultivation! Now you will have one of the Demon Kings become your master! Of course, Demon Kings do not take in trash. If you do not show sufficient improvement in two years, you will become normal disciples!” Demon General Typhoon’s stern warning woke them up.

No one could afford to be complacent. Only the ones who progressed continuously could become an elite.

“Finalists, please step forward!”

Long Chen and Huangfu Qi stepped forward along with the other five disciples. He turned around and spotted Zhao Wuji’s venomous glare.

He pretended not to see it and followed Demon General Typhoon up to the front of the seven Demon Kings. Facing them, even Demon General Typhoon had to hang his head. Long Chen also looked down, in case his arrogant gaze offended the Demon Kings.

However, he wondered how the seven disciples would be allocated.

Their talent levels varied greatly. For example, Huangfu Qi was very powerful at a very young age, making her the most talented. The other five disciples were about fourteen or fifteen and were at the Fourth Passage Stage, which made them look much better than Long Chen. It looked like Long Chen had won because he was older and had learned a few more techniques. In terms of talent, he was the worst.

Of course, that was only how it looked from the outside. Long Chen had only started cultivating a year ago. He had spent far less time than other people, meaning his talent was terrifying.

On top of that, which Demon King would be willing to allow a prodigy like Huangfu Qi to be taken away?

That was why Long Chen was looking forward to seeing how they would be allocated. Who would be his new master? Long Chen had taken a glance at them. Other than the Red Ghost King, the rest were terrifying both physically and mentally!
