Covering the Heavens: Its fortune endures forever, sweeping across all heavens.

"Who could possibly ride on the back of a real dragon!"

A passerby was the first to recognize the person's face and exclaimed, "It's that brat!"

"I know kids are naughty, but this is just too much!"

"Arriving on a true dragon!" The cultivators from the upper realm all had their eyes gleaming: "It seems that the supreme expert is countless times more powerful than we imagined."

"Perhaps it could be an old monster that survived from the previous era." The Celestial Fox Fairy was extremely shocked: "Suspected to be a cultivator of the immortal path."

She felt a cold sweat pouring down her face. She had been incredibly audacious before, actually joking about such a supreme being.

"Shi Hao has also learned how to show off in front of others!" Qin Tian watched this scene with satisfaction.

Yesterday, Shi Hao spoke sincerely, hoping Ge Gu could help him make a grand entrance, but the result...

"That's heartening!"

The red dragon landed and transformed into a young boy, who was recognized by the world.

"He is Ge Gu!"

"It's Ge Gu, the one who dominates the universe!"

"He's actually a real dragon! No wonder he was able to defeat the successor of the Immortal Mountain!"

Before a true dragon, Mount Immortal? That's nothing but a chicken feather!

The insignificant Bulao Mountain isn't even qualified to carry Master Long's shoes.

Qin Hao looked at the real dragon and helplessly let go of his hands. Even though he was exceptionally talented and possessed immortal bones, it would be normal for him to lose when fighting against a true descendant of an immortal spirit.

The old servant beside him also comforted Qin Hao: "Losing to the True Dragon is a normal thing. The fact that you were able to fight the True Dragon to that extent is already an extremely glorious thing."

"Yes!"

"It's normal to lose when facing a true dragon!" Qin Hao accepted the answer with a clear conscience.

It is impossible to win against such a being.

"It seems the champion of the World Martial Arts Tournament has already been decided!"

There's no need for comparison. Even if the other eight are all top-tier geniuses, the one coming from the other side is a true dragon!

What double pupils, what supreme bones—can they compare to the bloodline of a true dragon? Obviously not! They're not even worthy of carrying a dragon's shoes.

"Real dragon!"

"So what if it's a true dragon? The outcome of the battle is still uncertain!" Shi Yi said. Unlike Qin Hao, he didn't give up immediately. His double pupils were full of fighting spirit and overflowed with chaotic energy.

"With double pupils being no match and the Supreme Bone being useless, I, Shi Yi, am not incapable of fighting him!" Shi Yi said decisively.

The Supreme Bone is useless, the Double Pupils are powerless, but a human can rival a true dragon.

This time, no one echoed the sentiment, because the words "True Dragon" were simply too terrifying; this was truly an invincible bloodline.

People revered Shi Yi because of his double pupils, not because of Shi Yi himself.

When a bloodline surpassing double pupils appears, the world's awe of Shi Yi will naturally shift to others.

Their reputation, built over several eras, and their reverence for the Ten Fiends were ingrained in their very bones.

"My good brother, this is my true opponent!" Shi Hao looked in Shi Yi's direction, a hint of fighting spirit flashing in his eyes.

He would be very disappointed if he were so easily scared off by Ge Gu.

Ge Gu enjoys the admiring gaze of the world; this is the treatment a true dragon should receive.

"Snap out of it!" Shi Hao patted Ge Gu on the head. Ge Gu dared not speak out because of a certain awe in his heart, and could only obediently follow behind his master.

Everyone was stunned. This real dragon seemed to have little status in front of the bratty kid. Was it being controlled by someone else?

The various upper-realm powers in the crowd had uncertain expressions: "That's good, that's how we can poach their members!"

"Moreover...this brat probably possesses some method of controlling true dragons. If we could obtain it..."

"Just wait, I'll defeat you!" Ge Gu muttered to himself as he followed behind Shi Hao.

“I’ll ride you every day too.”

He took this reverence as the reverence of a master-disciple relationship, unaware that it was the future Ge Gu's respect for the Desolate Heavenly Emperor that was being passed on to Ge Gu at this moment.

……

With a wave of his hand, Qin Tian unleashed an invisible and intangible spiritual force, creating a battlefield in the sky.

This is a wild and desolate battlefield, with towering mountains and rushing rivers, filled with a primitive atmosphere.

Qin Tian projected this battlefield onto the sky above the Void God Realm, allowing everyone to clearly see this mythical battle.

The next moment, Bird Master and Master Jingbi appeared in the center of the arena.

"The World's Greatest Martial Arts Tournament officially begins!"

How could Bird Master and Jingbi Grandpa not participate in such a lively event?

Therefore, they volunteered to become referees for the competition, as a competition with a Celestial King as referee is extremely rare.

Or rather, this is something that has never happened before, not even in the ancient times when immortal kings frequently appeared.

Although the ancient immortal kings were all very amiable, they would not officiate at competitions, as no competition was worthy of an immortal king.

With a flick of his finger, Bird Master caused chaos and confusion to erupt, and eight streaks of light flashed and collided with each other.

Finally, two streams of light fell from the chaos, one bearing the character "Heaven" and the other the character "Yellow".

"The first battle: Tian Shiyi versus Huang Baihu," said Grandpa Jingbi. "Please take your positions!"

The next moment, two golden beams shot out from the arena in the sky, transforming into a golden road that brought Shi Yi and Bai Hu onto the arena.

Chapter 579 The First Battle: The Power of the Double-Pupiled One

Both were experts in the Inscription Realm, with the same level of cultivation, so they only needed to start fighting directly.

The rules of the World's Number One Martial Arts Tournament stipulate that battles are fought between cultivators of the same realm. If the realms are different, the cultivator of the lower realm will choose whether to raise their own realm or suppress the opponent's realm.

"The one with double pupils has quite a reputation."

"But before Xiling, there is only one way: to kneel and worship!" A pure-blooded creature roared, exuding a fierce aura. Every hair of his body shimmered with white light, the power of war and metal.

This is also a white tiger, but unlike the useless Gong Baiwan, it is the true king of beasts who has fought its way out of countless creatures in Xiling.

He was not originally a pure-blooded being, but a mixed-blood white tiger.

In the Xiling Beast Region, where bloodlines are highly valued, such a background is not taken seriously.

However, changes have occurred in the Xiling Beast Zone, with higher authorities opening up resources to select fresh talent.

He seized the opportunity and fought his way out from the bottom step by step—he once fought a nine-headed lion and defeated a real purebred white tiger.

Finally, after bathing in the blood pool of Xiling, it expelled impurities from its body and completely transformed into a pure-blooded white tiger.

That's why he was so proud.

He defeated so many pure-blooded beings; how could he possibly defeat such a weak human race? It would be a piece of cake.

"Let's finish you off quickly!" the White Tiger said arrogantly. "I still want to meet a true descendant of the dragon!"

That bloodline, that majesty—just one glance from him made him tremble. This was the kind of opponent he was willing to spend his whole life pursuing.

On the other side, Ge Gu couldn't help but shiver.

"Hurry up!" Shi Yi said.

Baihu was anxious, but Shi Yi was even more anxious. At this time, Shi Yi had not yet experienced life and death, nor had he been taught by the woman with double pupils. Deep down, he was more indifferent and pursued profit.

According to what he learned from the cultivators in the upper realm, the senior expert who stood up for Shi Hao was suspected to be a Supreme Being.

Such beings are few and far between in the three thousand provinces, far surpassing any so-called sect leader.

He longed to showcase himself on this stage, defeat his younger brother who had taken him for granted, and thus gain Qin Tian's favor.

Obtain more resources from him, surpass all cultivators in the lower and even upper realms, and truly rule the world.

"Don't worry, it won't take up too much of your time!" White Tiger grinned and said, "Before you die, why not enjoy the feeling of being the center of attention for a while longer!"

Baihu had heard of the reputation of those with double pupils; in the past, they were beings he had to look up to.

But things are different now. He has become a top contender in the Xiling Beast Zone, transformed into a pure-blooded being, and is now qualified to be ranked alongside those with double pupils.

The change in his status prompted a change in his mindset.

He used to look up to someone, but now he looks down on him somewhat, especially a cultivator who had added a flaw to himself for no reason.

He felt disdain.

The so-called cultivation is for the evolution of one's life level, to become stronger and more perfect.

The most important point is to reduce one's weaknesses and strive to become more like a perfect person.

In his view, Shi Yi's act of adding a fatal weakness to himself was nothing short of foolish.

"Hey, looks like I haven't made a move in a while. Now even a random little kitten thinks it can rival me." Shi Yi covered his face and laughed continuously. With each blink of his double pupils, strands of runes flickered and chains of divine order moved, changing the very fabric of the world and altering the rules of heaven and earth!

Through the gaps between the five fingers, one can vaguely see the destruction of the sun and moon and the birth of a galaxy in those double pupils, filled with despair and vitality, making one unable to resist rushing forward to offer oneself.

These eyes were so terrifying that many experts couldn't help but cough up blood upon seeing them.

They wanted to test the power of the double pupils, but they were unable to withstand the pressure and were severely injured.

Especially those standing at the very front, who wanted to defend themselves, never expected that their magical artifacts would crack and explode as soon as they were taken out, a sight that sent chills down one's spine.

Those people staggered backward, blood trickling from the corners of their mouths. They were filled with immense terror, an experience they would never forget, leaving an indelible impression.

"I will take care of you as quickly as possible!" Since Shi Yi had decided to show his abilities, he naturally had to go all out.

Having said that, Shi Yi, like a dragon, arrived from nowhere and threw a punch at the white tiger. It was fierce and domineering, unstoppable, and exuded an aura of supreme power.

The White Tiger was not to be outdone. Deep down, he looked down on the human race, so how could he possibly back down at the strongest point among pure-blooded beings?

"when!"

In an instant, a ball of light exploded between the two, and brilliant divine light scattered across the sky, impacting all directions. This clash of power was truly terrifying.

In just a moment, divine light blazed from all directions, its radiance like a galaxy, and runes intertwined like lightning, engulfing the two.

The next moment, a pure white figure flew out from the ball of light, crushing the mountains on the battlefield and causing the rivers to reverse.

That figure was none other than the White Tiger!

He was defeated by Shi Yi in a physical fight.

This is unbelievable, as everyone knows that compared to demons and beasts, humans are inherently weaker in terms of physique and physical foundation.

This makes it difficult for humans to compete with pure-blooded beings in terms of physical strength, and they often need to rely on Taoist arts and magical treasures to contend with pure-blooded beings.

Now, the one with double pupils has directly suppressed the pure-blooded beings with his physical body, making people sigh that the one with double pupils is indeed worthy of the name of a born saint.

"No, I don't believe it!" the white tiger roared, and charged forward again.

"No matter how many times it happens, it will be the same!" Shi Yi's double pupils shone brightly, reflecting the white tiger's every move. Every trace of divine power flowing through his pupils allowed him to gain extraordinary assistance in the battle.

The two collided fiercely in the air several times, shifting and changing shape, leaving behind afterimages at incredible speed.

A moment later, the white tiger was sent flying again. Its pair of ferocious tiger claws were stained with blood, and its white bones pierced through the skin at the wrists, exposed to the outside, making it look extremely miserable.

Shi Yi stood tall in the void, his black hair flowing over his shoulders, his body yellowish with a faint golden light flowing around him, and a terrifying aura lurking within his flesh, making him look incredibly frightening.

"How is this possible!" the white tiger roared in disbelief. How could a mere weak mortal possibly suppress a pure-blooded being like him in a physical fight?

"Is this the Indestructible Vajra?!" Fairy Celestial Fox was somewhat surprised. This person with double pupils was truly extraordinary. Before even fully displaying the power of his double pupils, he was already able to suppress a prodigy who had emerged from a region.

"He obtained the Golden Body Elixir, and he truly has great fortune!" Qingyi explained. The Golden Body Elixir is a rare and precious item of the Patching Heaven Sect, capable of cultivating an unparalleled body. Only a handful of people in each generation can be baptized by it.

Some people secretly glanced in Shi Hao's direction, trying to glean something from his face.

But to everyone's disappointment, Shi Hao's face did not show the slightest fluctuation, simply because he was indifferent to it.

He had fought against a pure-blooded dragon when he was young, so his so-called physical body that broke through the limits was nothing special.

His physical body can only be stronger than that.

"Don't you understand yet?"

"My physical body is my weakest point, but even so, it is still stronger than your strongest point!" Although he was talking to the White Tiger, his double pupils were staring at Shi Hao.

The meaning is clear: Little brother, do you see how powerful your older brother is?
