463: Return to the underground boxing ring

"The Ten Great Factions Ranking Battle?"

Yang Lingchen frowned slightly and asked, "When is it? What benefits does the champion receive?"

"The Ten Great Factions Ranking Battle is still two years away. It is said that the rewards for the champion this time are extremely generous, but what they are exactly, this Princess is not entirely sure."

Zhou Ruobing smiled faintly and continued, "However, the difficulty for you to win the champion is still quite high."

"Difficulty brings motivation. By the way, in the past, what Realm were the champions' cultivation level at?" Yang Lingchen asked casually, "Are there any restrictions on participation?"

"The cultivation level of past Ranking Battle champions has always been above the Peak of the Ninth Layer of the Xuanzun Realm. And the Geniuses in this Ranking Battle will far surpass those of previous years. If you don't possess the Combat Power of the Myriad Illusions Realm, it's impossible to win the champion."

Zhou Ruobing raised her slender eyebrows and continued, "As for the restrictions of the Ranking Battle, they are actually quite simple: anyone under the age of two thousand can participate."

"Of course, if you want to participate in the Ranking Battle of the Ten Great Factions, you must be a member of one of the Ten Great Factions."

"There are still two years. Maybe I really will win the champion by then?" A confident light shone in Yang Lingchen's eyes.

If the Ranking Battle started now, he would have no chance of winning the champion, but if it was two years later, he had some confidence.

"This Princess likes your confident look."

Zhou Ruobing curved her lips into a sweet smile and said:

"Over the years, the champion of the Ten Great Factions Ranking Battle has always been held by our Four Great Super Factions. If you manage to win the champion, this Princess can bestow myself upon you as a reward."

After speaking, her thin lips curled up slightly, revealing an intoxicating smile.

"Gulp...!"

"If I really win the champion, you won't go back on your word, right?"

Staring at the peerlessly enchanting woman before him, Yang Lingchen secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva. "What a tempting temptress!"

"This Princess always keeps her word." Zhou Ruobing said firmly.

"Good, it's a deal." A domineering aura flashed in Yang Lingchen's eyes.

Afterward, Yang Lingchen returned to his residence.

In the following days, he continued to Cultivate in the haotian jade space.

Yang Lingchen planned to return to Wentian Palace once his cultivation level Breakthroughed to the Heavenly Net Realm Fourth Layer.

Because to participate in the Ranking Competition of the Ten Great Factions, he must first obtain a participation quota from his Sect, otherwise, he would not be qualified.

Time quietly passed, and two more months went by in a flash.

After two months of continuous Cultivation, Yang Lingchen raised his cultivation level to the Peak of the Third Level of the Celestial Net Realm, only a step away from the Heavenly Net Realm Fourth Layer.

"It's time to go to the Underground Boxing Arena for a challenge." A sharp light flashed in Yang Lingchen's eyes.

After these two months of Cultivation, he had already touched the threshold of the Heavenly Net Realm Fourth Layer.

Currently, Yang Lingchen needed a few major battles to temper his cultivation level. Once his cultivation level was sufficiently refined, that would be the time for him to Breakthrough to the Heavenly Net Realm Fourth Layer.

Of course, he had another plan: to earn more divine origin stones, and then exchange them for Advanced Pill Formulae at the Alchemist Guild. After all, his main purpose for coming to the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty was for the Pill Formulae.

Yang Lingchen greeted Zhou Ruobing, put on a certain mask, and quietly left the Ninth Princess's Mansion.

"Someone is monitoring the Princesss Mansion?"

Just as he walked out of the Princesss Mansion, Yang Lingchen sensed a Divine Sense sweeping over him.

Yang Lingchen could tell that this Divine Sense was likely targeting him, because the attendant who walked out with him just now was not covered by this Divine Sense.

In other words, the other party might only be targeting unfamiliar faces, or a specific person, and he was the only unfamiliar face in the Princesss Mansion.

However, Yang Lingchen didn't care. Even if the other party could tell he was wearing a disguise mask, so what? With Nie Xiaoyu as a talisman, the Xuanzun Realm posed no threat to him whatsoever.

Unless a Myriad Illusions Realm expert personally arrived, no one could do anything to him. And Myriad Illusions Realm experts were basically the top powerhouses of the major Factions; how could they possibly strike against a junior like him?

Leaving the Princesss Mansion, Yang Lingchen headed toward the Underground Boxing Arena in the east of the city. Within the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, he entered the Underground Boxing Arena... Great Zhou City, the Ye Family.

Ye Chen was Cultivating in his residence. Just then, his sound transmission jade vibrated. He quickly put the sound transmission jade to his ear, and immediately, a deep voice came through:

"Second Young Master, someone wearing a disguise mask just came out of the Princesss Mansion. I estimate he is that Yang Lingchen."

"Where did he go?" Ye Chen sent a Sound Transmission.

"The Underground Boxing Arena in the east of the city." That deep voice came again from within the sound transmission jade.

"Keep an eye on him. I'm going to notify Big Brother now."

...Arriving at the Underground Boxing Arena in the east of the city again, Yang Lingchen immediately started the challenge mode.

For a challenge at the Heavenly Net Realm level, one victory yields twenty thousand mid-grade divine origin stones. If one defeats a Xuanzun Realm Cultivator, they can earn fifty thousand mid-grade divine origin stones.

Yang Lingchen planned to use this opportunity to earn a few million divine origin stones, and then go to the Alchemist Guild to exchange for some Xuanzun Realm Pill Formulae.

In the future, once he Breakthroughed to the Xuanzun Realm, he wouldn't have to worry about not having Xuanzun Pills to use.

Yang Lingchen challenged continuously. His opponents ranged from the Heavenly Net Realm Fourth Layer at the start, all the way up to the Heavenly Net Realm Fifth Layer, and he still hadn't stopped; he was constantly challenging higher levels.

Throughout Yang Lingchen's challenges, no one could withstand a single move from him, and his winning streak had already reached one hundred consecutive victories.

"Steward Zhong, please arrange an opponent at the Heavenly Net Realm Sixth Layer for me!"

Yang Lingchen was not in a hurry to directly challenge the Xuanzun Realm, because he planned to challenge step by step, which would allow him to earn more divine origin stones.

During these challenges, Yang Lingchen did not place bets with the bookmaker. After all, he had already earned a lot of divine origin stones, and if he kept betting, the Underground Boxing Arena would probably go bankrupt.

Yang Lingchen also knew that his current strength was not yet sufficient, and angering the bookmakers of the Underground Boxing Arena would do him no good.

"Holy crap, is this guy even human? His Cross-Rank Challenge ability is too exaggerated!"

"I know! With the cultivation level of the Third Level of the Celestial Net Realm, he's actually challenging the Heavenly Net Realm Sixth Layer. This kind of Combat Power is truly unprecedented!"

"I just don't know if he can defeat someone at the Heavenly Net Realm Sixth Layer."

"I don't think it's very likely. After all, the Heavenly Net Realm Sixth Layer isn't the Fifth Layer; the gap between them is considerable."

At this moment, the crowds in the stands surrounding the Underground Boxing Arena began to chatter amongst themselves.

Soon, Yang Lingchen's first opponent at the Heavenly Net Realm Sixth Layer was arranged.

"Bet on 9527 to win, odds are two to one."

"Bet on Ye Wen, odds are one to two. Those who want to bet hurry up."

Just then, the bookmaker's shouts rang out from the betting platform.

"I bet one thousand divine origin stones on Ye Wen."

"Idiot, his name is Ye Wen."

"I'll also bet one thousand mid-grade divine origin stones on Ye Wen."

"Crap, only a hundred left. I'm going all out this round, I bet one hundred divine origin stones on 9527."

Everyone started placing their bets, but most people chose to bet on Ye Wen, as there was a three minor Realm cultivation level gap between the two.

"The battle begins."

As the betting concluded, the battle on the Arena officially commenced.

"Kid, I have to admit, you are quite surprising, but running into this old man means your good days are over."

A cold smile curled up on Ye Wen's lips.

In battles at the Heavenly Net Realm Sixth Layer level, he had already achieved twenty consecutive victories. So far, no one had been able to threaten him.

Now, a Little Fellow at the Third Level of the Celestial Net Realm dared to challenge him—this was simply blatant contempt in his eyes... To be continued!
