On the 60th birthday of the system, my son’s engagement was annulled!

"Sect Leader Chen, thank you for your hospitality. We are now preparing to continue our journey."

Early the next morning, Lin Xuan and the others had already gathered in the sect square of the Earthly Kui Sect, with all eighteen Hurricane Birds lined up together.

Chen Feng smiled and cupped his hands in a gesture of respect and obedience to Lin Xuan.

When Chen Feng learned that Lin Xuan was actually a Celestial Realm expert, he was extremely excited. After all, his Di Kui Sect had made good friends with a Celestial Realm expert, which was a good thing.

"Hehe, Lin Qian... Clan Chief, then I won't keep you any longer. However, I hope to see your Eastern Continent shine brightly at the Thousand Pride Tournament."

Chen Feng looked at Lin Xuan and the others with a smile.

Lin Xuan nodded slightly, and the Blue Lightning Emperor Dragon slowly descended, spreading its enormous wings as if they could blot out the sky.

The members of the Earthly Sect were all startled when they saw the Blue Lightning Emperor Minglong appear.

The Blue Lightning Emperor Nether Dragon is, after all, a dragon-type demon beast at the Martial Emperor realm, and is naturally extraordinary.

The terrifying aura made many people feel as if they could no longer breathe.

"Hehe, Sect Leader Chen, we'll meet again someday."

Lin Xuan cupped his hands in greeting to Chen Feng, and the Blue Lightning Emperor Dark Dragon understood and left the scene.

The remaining eighteen Hurricane Birds immediately spread their wings and took flight, following the flight path of the Blue Lightning Emperor Dragon and leaving the Earthly Sect.

Chen Feng looked in the direction where Lin Xuan and the others had disappeared and let out a heavy sigh.

Lin Xuan is a super strong person in the Immortal Realm. He is a Great Emperor Realm cultivator, yet he is so foolish as to call an Immortal Realm expert brother and even call him a fellow Daoist. This is simply the greatest insult to the Immortal Realm!

When Chen Feng learned that Lin Xuan was a Celestial Realm expert, he didn't dare close his eyes all night and was unable to enter meditation, fearing that Lin Xuan might do something to the Earthly Kui Sect because of his disrespect.

However, it is clear that this super strong person from the Eastern Continent has a broad mind and is approachable, which makes people admire him.

"Father, there are many experts in their team."

Chen Kong walked to Chen Feng's side, his eyes still fixed on the spot where Lin Xuan's group had disappeared.

"What's wrong, Kong'er? Did you sense something?"

Chen Feng immediately countered with a question.

"Hmm." Chen Kong nodded slightly. "There are many experts in their team. There are probably no fewer than five people whose strength is no less than that of Lin Chang'an. In particular, there is one person who gives me a sense of insurmountable despair!"

Chen Kong let out a slight breath, and the image of Lin Fan appeared in his mind. A single glance from him made his heart race, his breathing quicken, and he even felt fear. The pressure was truly overwhelming.

Chen Feng remained silent for a long time after hearing his genius son's words.

After a long while, Chen Feng shook his head with a helpless bitter smile.

"It seems that this year's Divine Continent Thousand Talents Tournament is full of experts and geniuses. The other continents must also be quite formidable. Hehe, Kong'er, this time it all depends on you."

Chen Feng spoke slowly and deliberately, but Chen Kong felt a sense of crisis.

Originally confident that he could easily enter the top 500 of the Thousand Talents Ranking, Chen Kong's confidence has waned now, seeing that the other continents are full of geniuses.

"I won't give up, Lin Chang'an, I will definitely defeat you!"

Chen Kong clenched his hands tightly, finally deciding to venture out and make his way in the world during the last month.

The Third Ring Road.

The Shenzhou Third Ring Road is essentially a ring that encloses the area within the Third Ring Road.

The three rings are relatively easy to distinguish, and what surrounds the three rings is a continuous protective formation.

The protective formation is not powerful; even a True Martial God Realm expert might not be able to stop it.

However, this formation has one function: if someone tries to force their way in, the formation will respond immediately, and the powerful individuals within the third ring will be able to sense it and send out their own powerful individuals to hunt down the intruder.

Lin Xuan and the others flew to a huge city wall, on which were written two large characters.

—"Divine Edge City!"

This is the dividing line of the Third Ring Road. To enter the Third Ring Road, one must pass through Shenfeng City. Everyone must pass through here, and it is the only place without any formations.

Shenfeng City is extremely large, with the city walls on both sides stretching as far as the eye can see. They are hundreds of feet high, and the city gates at the foot of the walls are also several tens of feet high and several tens of feet wide.

"Is this Shenfeng City? It's huge!"

Looking at the super city so close at hand, the Purple Emperor, the Black Emperor, and the others couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"Entry into Shenfeng City requires permission; forced entry is absolutely forbidden."

Mu Lingji explained with a smile.

"What if we force our way in?"

At this moment, Xiang Ji, the head of the Xiang family, suddenly asked a question.

Mu Lingji did not offer an explanation, but Xu Zilin, who was standing to the side, suddenly spoke up and continued the sentence:

"If they force their way in, then the major powers on duty that day must send people to intercept them and punish them. At best, they will be whipped; at worst, their cultivation can be abolished!"

Everyone was amazed when they heard this, not expecting it to be so serious.

“There are people forcibly breaking in here almost every day. It’s better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early. Look, isn’t that someone forcibly breaking in?”

Xu Zilin pointed to the front of Shenfeng City, where two figures were shouting at the soldiers guarding the city.

"Hmph! What kind of bullshit Third Ring Road is this? What kind of bullshit Divine Peak City is this? They won't let us in without a permit. What kind of logic is that? Today I really don't believe in this nonsense. I'm going to go in!"

The two figures suddenly unleashed the power of the peak Emperor Realm, which was truly impressive. In a place like the Eastern Continent, they could already dominate a region.

However, they are currently in Shenzhou, specifically in the third ring of Shenzhou. In this location, even encountering a powerful being at the half-immortal level would not be difficult.

"presumptuous!"

Seeing that the two Emperor Realm experts were trying to force their way in, the gate guards shouted, and three golden figures descended from the sky.

Three figures landed, three generals clad in golden armor, each exuding an extremely domineering aura.

"You ignorant outsider, you dared to trespass into Shenfeng City! This is a capital offense! Confess your crime!"

The golden-armored general on the left looked down at the two emperors before him as if they were dogs.

The man on the right vanished instantly, unleashing a furious punch at the two men who were attempting to force their way into Shenfeng City.

"boom!"

A tremendous roar resounded, and the two previously arrogant Throne Realm experts were sent flying without any chance to fight back.

"Hmph, you little punk from a tiny place, I'll let you off the hook for your hard work and you might be spared the death penalty, but you're in for a living punishment!"

The leader tilted his head slightly, his eyes devoid of any emotion. He pointed a finger, and a piercing force shot out, piercing directly through the thighs of both men.

"what!"

The powerful force penetrated directly into their bodies, causing the two powerful experts at the Throne Realm to writhe in pain.

"Tsk tsk tsk, so this is Divine Edge City? It's truly terrifying."

When Zi Huang saw those two guys, whose strength was similar to his own, being tamed like dogs, he felt the gap between them.

While he, a Throne Realm expert, could roam freely in the Eastern Continent, he was far inferior on the Divine Continent, having fallen to the level of a second-rate master.

Therefore, it is natural to maintain a low profile.

Seeing that two powerful figures at the Throne Realm had been punished so severely, the other outsiders swallowed hard in fear. The locals who originally lived in the Third Ring Road, however, wore mocking expressions; this kind of situation happened from time to time.

Some guys who were used to bullying others on their own turf came to the Third Ring Road and felt that the pass was an insult to them. They insisted on entering Shenfeng City without a pass. Half of these guys were killed on the spot by the general guarding Shenfeng City. As for the others who were lucky enough to escape death, they were also punished quite severely.

"Shenfeng City takes this pass very seriously. You must have a pass to enter the city. Without a pass, you will absolutely not be allowed to enter. Everyone must remember this."

Xu Zilin explained this to everyone present in a low voice.

Lin Xuan simply smiled indifferently at this.

"I never intended to force my way in. I'll just queue up and get a pass. Let's go."

Lin Xuan called to everyone, and they all disembarked from the Hurricane Bird and began heading towards Divine Edge City.

"Actually, there's no need for all that trouble. I can just register my name directly. Our Hehuan Sect still holds a certain position in the Third Ring."

Mu Lingji said, standing beside Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan smiled slightly at Mu Lingji.

"Hey, there's no need to make such a fuss. The queue isn't that long, and we're only staying at your Hehuan Sect for two days. It's better if we get a pass ourselves."

Mu Lingji said no more after hearing Lin Xuan's words.

A group of several hundred people began to line up. Although the line looked very long, it moved quickly, and it was only about the time it takes for two incense sticks to burn before it was Lin Xuan's turn.

Who are you?

After punishing the two men who tried to force their way into Shenfeng City, the three men in golden armor did not leave. Instead, they personally took up positions outside Shenfeng City.

The person who asked Lin Xuan was the same guy who had first appeared on the right, and who was also the guard commander who had attacked right away.

"The hundreds of people behind them are all together."

Lin Xuan looked at the guards of Shenfeng City before him and spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"so many people?!"

The people of Shenfeng City looked at Lin Xuan with some doubt and began to scrutinize the hundreds of people behind him.

"Where did you all come from? Why are there so many of you? What are you doing inside the Third Ring Road?"

The golden-armored general in the very center frowned slightly as he looked at Lin Xuan.

Before Lin Xuan could speak, the golden-armored general standing on the right gave a disdainful snort.

"Bringing the whole family along, huh? I bet you're here to participate in the Thousand Pride Tournament. Do you really think that having a lot of people participating in the Thousand Pride Tournament will guarantee a good ranking? That's a joke."

Lin Xuan glanced at the golden-armored general standing on the right; his words were indeed rather impulsive.

However, Lin Xuan did not want to cause any unnecessary trouble, so he ignored the golden-armored general standing on the right.

The golden-armored general standing on the right was furious to see that Lin Xuan had completely ignored him, but he couldn't find a reason to target Lin Xuan.

"There are definitely too many people. Where did they come from?"

The golden-armored general at the head of the group spoke again, questioning them.

"From the Eastern Continent."

"From the Eastern Continent?"

"From the Eastern Continent!"

Three voices rang out in succession.

The third voice, in particular, was filled with anger and murderous intent, which was undisguised and aimed directly at Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan looked toward the chilling killing intent and saw that it was the golden-armored general standing on the right.

The golden-armored general standing on the right looked at Lin Xuan with a gaze that had initially been disdainful and contemptuous, but now filled with murderous intent.

"You're from the Eastern Continent! How dare you! My Heavenly Throne Sect's Black Mountain Emperor perished in your Eastern Continent. I never imagined you would dare to walk right into our trap. Are you courting death?"

The golden-armored general on the right went berserk and charged fiercely at Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan understood the implication clearly: this golden-armored general actually came from the Heavenly Throne Sect. This world was still too small.

"boom!"

With a flick of his finger, Lin Xuan unleashed an Eight Gates Pagoda Seal, which completely absorbed the power of the golden-armored general.

"The realm of the Martial Emperor."

From this probing move, Lin Xuan had already figured out the strength of this golden-armored general from the Heavenly Throne Gate.

The others who were still in line saw that a fight had broken out on the spot and immediately left, clearing out the area.

"Did I just hear them say that these guys are from the Eastern Continent?"

"It seems so. They're from Dongzhou, participating in the Thousand Pride Tournament."

"Where is this Dongzhou?"

"Dongzhou is a continent, just like our Shenzhou. It is only located to the east of our Shenzhou continent. It is a tiny place and is not worth mentioning compared to Shenzhou."

"This year's Thousand Pride Tournament is really lively. I heard that people from the Northern Continent came here seven days ago."

"..."

The crowd began to discuss and speculate about Lin Xuan and the others.

"How dare you take action on your own? Your guard commander is responsible for protecting Shenfeng City. How can you lay a hand on us!"

Seeing that the golden-armored general of the Heavenly Gate had suddenly made a move, Xu Zilin mustered his courage and cursed loudly.

The golden-armored general of Tianzuo Gate glanced coldly at Xu Zilin, then turned his gaze to Lin Xuan.

"Hmph, our Black Mountain Emperor of the Heavenly Throne Sect originally went to the Eastern Continent to select the land of geniuses, but he unexpectedly perished there. The Eastern Continent must give me an explanation for this, or else stay here!"

The golden-armored general of Tianzuo Gate spoke arrogantly and dangerously, his words carrying a commanding tone.

Lin Xuan merely smiled coldly upon hearing this, a smile utterly mocking.

I never expected that the Heavenly Gate would cause trouble for me here.

If this were the first or second ring road, Lin Xuan would really consider whether or not to turn against them, but the third ring road isn't worth Lin Xuan thinking about so much.

"The Black Mountain King, huh? That one's got something, heh. I killed him. He was just a black dog. Killed him and that's it."

Lin Xuan casually flicked his fingers, his eyes full of mockery.

Upon hearing this, the entire room fell silent.

"You are looking for death!!!"

The golden-armored general of Tianzuo Gate roared at the top of his lungs.

Everyone around was amazed.

"Are all the people from Dongzhou this arrogant!?"
