Chapter 433: Chapter 179: Hundreds of Immortal Masters Gather on Juling Mountain, Lu Changsheng’s Appearance Causes a Sensation!_2
However, he might have underestimated the influence of the Dao Foundation Candidate List.
Compared to the uproar and excitement in the Ancient Domain Sect,
the Yellow Heaven Sect was deathly silent.
The announcement of the Dao Foundation Candidate List was equally a significant event for the Yellow Heaven Sect.
Many disciples had gathered in the Task Hall, waiting for the list to be unveiled.
Yet, when the moment of revelation arrived,
the Task Hall of the Yellow Heaven Sect fell into complete silence.
Everyone stared blankly at that extraordinarily prominent name on the list.
"Lu... Lu Changsheng? First on the Dao Foundation Candidate List? How could it be Lu Changsheng?"
"This must be a mistake, right? As I recall, Lu Changsheng’s brain domain doesn’t even cover ninety miles. How could he qualify for the Dao Foundation Candidate List, let alone rank first and surpass countless Divine Treasure martial artists?"
"How could the Dao Foundation Candidate List make a mistake? The mistake is ours... or rather, we’ve severely underestimated Lu Changsheng. Xu Haotian and Lei Tiandu were both slain by him. Both his strength and potential must have been recognized by the Dao Foundation Candidate List, even surpassing Xia Feilong and Xiao Wuji."
"Previously, Xia Feilong and Xiao Wuji ranked first and second, respectively. How could they possibly accept being suppressed by an unknown Divine Treasure martial artist who wasn’t even on the list before?"
"Different perspectives lead to different judgments. Lu Changsheng ranking first on the Dao Foundation Candidate List means Lei Tiandu didn’t die unjustly."
"This is troublesome now. If we disciples of the Yellow Heaven Sect encounter disciples of the Ancient Domain Sect, we’ll surely face ridicule..."
This matter was closely related to many disciples.
Especially the True Disciples.
Although it might not bring any substantial impact,
it was about pride and reputation.
Wherever they went, they represented the Yellow Heaven Sect.
If they encountered disciples from the Ancient Domain Sect, they’d inevitably be at a disadvantage in any verbal skirmish, which was quite frustrating.
But so what if they were frustrated?
Could they even dare to challenge Lu Changsheng?
Absolutely impossible!
They had no choice but to endure their dissatisfaction.
Some even felt that for years, possibly even decades to come, they would be overshadowed by the Ancient Domain Sect’s disciples.
With the announcement of the Dao Foundation Candidate List, the entire Ancient Domain buzzed with exclamations of astonishment.
The Martial Extreme Sect, inside Xiao Wuji’s cave mansion.
A charming woman smiled and asked, "Senior Brother Xiao, you were previously ranked second on the Dao Foundation Candidate List, but now you’ve dropped to third. Aren’t you curious about Lu Changsheng from the Ancient Domain Sect?"
Xiao Wuji glanced at the woman and said in a calm tone, "Curious for what? Should I challenge Lu Changsheng? I’m not a martial arts fanatic. Whether I rank second or third means nothing to me."
"Besides, the one who should be anxious now is Xia Feilong. He suppressed me for decades and has always held an edge over me since the Martial Realm. Yet now, someone completely unknown—a Divine Treasure martial artist—has surpassed him."
"I’m afraid he might go mad. Just wait a bit; we might witness an interesting show."
The woman’s eyes lit up. "Senior Brother Xiao, are you saying Xia Feilong might challenge Lu Changsheng?"
"That’s uncertain. With Xia Feilong’s temperament, he likely won’t enjoy being outdone. But Lu Changsheng isn’t someone with an undeserved reputation—he slew Xu Haotian, Lan Tianxiao, and Lei Tiandu. Especially in the battle where he killed Lei Tiandu: he directly crushed Lei Tiandu’s six fused Domains, equivalent to over a hundred layers of ordinary Domains. With such strength, even Xia Feilong might not dare claim an assured victory!"
Xiao Wuji shook his head.
He had openly and secretly competed with Xia Feilong for decades and knew Xia Feilong’s character very well.
Xia Feilong might seem hot-tempered and prideful,
but when facing other top-tier experts, he was undoubtedly cautious and prudent.
At that moment, Xia Feilong, who was being mentioned, was also in his cave mansion.
In front of him was a True Disciple from the Liuyun Sect.
"Senior Brother Xia, the Dao Foundation Candidate List has been revealed today, and your top position has been replaced by an unknown Lu Changsheng. Now, Lu Changsheng is the first on the Dao Foundation Candidate List, dominating it and overlooking all Divine Treasures!"
The True Disciple spoke softly.
However, Xia Feilong remained unmoved, his demeanor unusually calm.
This behavior was rather unlike the Xia Feilong everyone knew.
"Lu Changsheng of the Ancient Domain Sect being able to slay Lei Tiandu proves that his strength is already at the pinnacle of Divine Treasure."
"Moreover, Lu Changsheng could reverse-kill Divine Treasure experts while still at the Martial Realm, something neither Xiao Wuji nor I ever achieved."
"Now, who knows how many people wish for me to challenge Lu Changsheng. They want to see me or Lu Changsheng make a fool of ourselves."
"How laughable! Do I, Xia Feilong, look like a monkey for others to toy with?"
"Besides, what does being first on the Dao Foundation Candidate List amount to? After all, it’s only Divine Treasure."
"As for me, I am about to forge my Dao Foundation!"
"Junior Brother Liu, you may leave. I need to enter seclusion to establish my Dao Foundation!"
The True Disciple surnamed Liu looked at Xia Feilong with some astonishment.
Hearing such words from Xia Feilong was undoubtedly surprising to him.
This was not in line with the Xia Feilong he remembered.
Xia Feilong did not impulsively challenge Lu Changsheng.
Instead, he endured?
No, it wasn’t simply endurance.
Xia Feilong was about to declare his existence in another way.
By forging his Dao Foundation!
"Senior Brother Xia, farewell."
The Liu-surnamed True Disciple quickly bowed and left.
Meanwhile, throughout the Ancient Domain, many curious Divine Treasures secretly discussed.
They speculated whether Xia Feilong would challenge Lu Changsheng.
After all, Xia Feilong’s temperament was well-known to all.
He could not tolerate anyone stronger than him!
