Chapter 837: Chapter 170: The Battle Begins, He Has Arrived! _4
Chi Guang’s figure paused slightly, his expression easing considerably, knowing that the past grudges were now completely written off.
He stopped in his tracks and said, “Then let’s have a taste.”
Li Hao gave a slight smile and invited him to take a seat.
The commotion here was noticed by other Saint Heirs in the nearby courtyards. Lin Baichuan, who had been cultivating in the courtyard for a while, came to find Li Hao, wanting to invite him for a walk. Upon arrival, however, he saw Li Hao’s courtyard full of guests.
He was somewhat stunned, his eyes wide in disbelief.
These Saint Heirs and saintesses, who usually favored tranquility and were focused on their cultivation, had very few friends. Yet, Li Hao’s courtyard was as bustling as a vegetable market.
From a distance in the void, two figures stood side by side. Feng Boping looked towards Li Hao’s courtyard, observing the extraordinary liveliness, and seeing the young man in the middle of the gathering with a smile on his face, drinking like a prodigal, chatting and laughing freely, a hint of a smile flashed in his eyes.
“It seems he’s quite popular,” commented Lie Sky Saint, who also saw the scene.
Feng Boping replied with a smile, “He was like this in the Mortal World.”
“Such a disposition indeed makes one likable,” remarked Lie Sky Saint softly. She had seen countless people and could tell at a glance that Li Hao’s nature was quite amiable, unlike other aloof Heavenly Prides who were hard to approach.
Feng Boping’s smile faded slightly, as if he thought of something, and he simply nodded.
Time flies.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and everywhere in the Heavenly Origin Realm was bustling, with the liveliest place still being Tianyuan Saint Mountain.
All the houses here were filled, and distinguished guests from various realms had arrived. Some unruly and willful individuals caused some minor disturbances, but these were quickly settled.
Over the past three days, many people discussed who would be the champion of the Pride of Heaven Battle, with the highest voices being for several disciples of the Supreme Saint Gate, and Li Hao.
Leaving one’s mark on the All Heavens Battlefield, it’s a genuine achievement. Although the Heavenly Stele can’t measure skill completely accurately, its measurement is still a significant reference for talent and carries a lot of weight.
“If we go by the Heavenly Stele, then Haotian should be the top of this batch, right?”
“The Heavenly Stele is just an indicator, not absolute; otherwise, why bother competing? Just leave a handprint on the Heavenly Stele.”
“That’s right, the Heavenly Stele only represents certain upper limits. Combat is not one-sided and even the mindset at the time of competition can have an impact.”
“These Heavenly Prides have a mindset not easily disturbed like those of the common folk.”
“Praising him is useless. Haotian might not even show up, remember, he was too arrogant and offended both the Buddha realm and our Void Holy Land. Right now, he could be hiding somewhere, tail tucked between his legs.”
“Where else could it be, probably sneaking around in that thieving Void Holy Land.”
“Little Thousand World, I think it would also be fitting to call it Old Thousand Realm.”
“Don’t mention it; it was originally called Old Thousand Realm, but then Thief Saint felt that ‘old thousand’ insulted the dignity of thieves, so he changed it to Little Thousand World.”
Inside the Tianyuan Sacred Land, all the realms were discussing.
“Master, has Haotian arrived?”
In the Law Sect Sacred Land, Wu Tian asked his master, one of the Legalist Saints, known as the Saint of Ten Thousand Nations Laws, and also as Law Saint.
“He has already arrived. Are you very interested in him?”
The Law Saint looked as if stars were suspended in his eyes, seemingly containing thousands of brilliant lights, and he said with an indifferent smile.
Wu Tian recalled his observation at the All Heavens Battlefield, where the other party suppressed the Green Deer King with a gesture. That power had ignited a strong desire to compete within him.
“Yes, I really want to see how formidable he is, leaving a red mark on the battlefield,” Wu Tian said frankly.
“On this trip, you’ll have the chance to encounter him,” said the Law Saint with a smile, as if he followed certain laws of heaven and foresaw the future.
Wu Tian’s eyes brightened. His master was extremely skilled in divination and prediction, and his words were usually very accurate with rare errors.
Elsewhere in the Law Sect.
“After a long seclusion, it seems that some unruly newcomers have popped up outside.”
A figure stood tall and upright, dressed in white clothing, purifying himself with burning incense, seeming well-comported with an aura of serenity, and although his eyes were rather cold and sharp, he exuded rationality and a strong sense of calm.
“Indeed, it’s said that he challenged Saints while only in the Dao Law Realm, and neither the Buddha realm nor the Void Holy Land pursued him. They are quite magnanimous, possessing the compassion of Saints,” said the serving maid obediently, with a hint of indignation in her eyes.
“Challenging the Saint Path’s rules is seeking self-destruction. The Buddha realm as well, allowing a junior to challenge without stern punishment. The law does not indulge sentiments; such tolerance is equivalent to condoning evil. It’s time for a counsel!” the young man in white said coldly, not pleased with either party upon hearing of the event.
As a disciple of the Holy Master of Law, his master cultivated the Heavenly Dao Rules. All things, including Saints, must follow his master’s rules, and now someone was breaking them.
Challenging Saints is a violation of the Saint Path.
Saints not punishing this severely is also not following the Saint Path’s rules.
“The world is but a chessboard, all things the pieces, which should follow the rules of Chess Tao to determine victory or defeat. If rules are not observed, what meaning is there in victory or defeat?”
In front of the young man in white, in front of the board where incense burned, there was a chessboard, and his slender fingers picked up the pieces and set them down.
His Chess Tao was transcendent, yet he could only play against himself.
Because it was exceedingly difficult to find someone capable of playing against him.
“Where is the Master?” the young man in white suddenly asked, as he moved a piece.

If his master knew of this matter, he would certainly not stand by.
“The Holy Master of Law went to comprehend the principles of the Heavenly Dao. If the Saint Heir participates in this Pride of Heaven Battle, the Holy Master of Law will probably return in time,” the maid said, her head lowered.
The young man’s expression eased slightly upon hearing this; with his master being occupied, it was no wonder there was no indulgence.
“The Master has reached the level of Supreme Saint, studying the Heavenly Dao as scripture. These Saints do not know that the law established by my master is the Heavenly Dao Rules, to which all things comply. Going against it will only lead to self-destruction!”
