Supreme Lord of Towers

Douzhan Palace, located halfway up the main peak, is an incredibly grand and magnificent palace.

This place was specifically built by the Human King Hall for the Inner Hall disciples to spar and compete with one another.

In the center of the Douzhan Palace stands a massive White Jade Battle Platform, several thousand feet wide, surrounded by multiple arrays.

Even the strength of Golden Core Realm experts is significantly weakened by the arrays, preventing any damage to the surroundings during their battles.

Otherwise, with the strength of the Inner Hall disciples, just a small outburst of power could dismantle the entire Douzhan Palace.

At this moment, the surroundings of the White Jade Battle Platform are densely packed with people, filled with numerous Inner Hall disciples.

They all arrived specifically to watch the match after hearing the news that Ye Chen would challenge one of the top ten Inner Hall disciples.

Even many of the Inner Hall elders were also alarmed and drawn over.

After all, Ye Chen is not an ordinary Inner Hall disciple; he can even kill quasi-god descendants of the Dragon Race.

A prodigy like this naturally draws the attention of the Inner Hall elders.

"Is he the Ye Chen who killed three quasi-god descendants of the Dragon Race in the Fire Dragon Mountain Range? Truly, the younger generation is fearsome!"

"Indeed! I heard he's only around twenty years old this year, and he already has such achievements. Given time, his accomplishments will know no bounds." Many Inner Hall elders couldn't help but sigh and admire, looking at Ye Chen with expressions full of deep appreciation.

Even in the Inner Hall of the Human King Hall, very few can elevate their cultivation to the Peak of Profound Pill Realm at twenty years old.

After all, not everyone can have such high Martial Arts Realm like Ye Chen at a young age.

Once the Martial Arts Realm doesn't improve, even possessing Profound Celestial True Water, it's hard to quickly break through to the Peak of Profound Pill Realm.

"I also heard that Ye Chen has already practiced a Celestial Level Upper Grade Martial Arts, which is most extraordinary." An Inner Hall elder exclaimed.

"What? How is that possible?" The surrounding Inner Hall elders couldn't help but gasp, their eyes wide open with disbelief.

They originally thought Ye Chen was able to defeat those three quasi-god descendants due to some special physique.

But never imagined his Martial Arts Realm would be so high.

"This must be a rumor! He's only twenty years old; how could he possibly master a Celestial Level Upper Grade Martial Arts."

"Indeed! Such a person, even in the Human King Hall, has been rarely seen throughout history." Many Inner Hall elders found it hard to believe as truth.

After all, none of them had seen with their own eyes Ye Chen unleash the Celestial Level Upper Grade Martial Arts.

Perhaps he used some Secret Treasure, making others mistakenly think he had mastered the Celestial Level Upper Grade Martial Arts.

Because there are indeed some Secret Treasures in this world that can seal the power of True Intent within them.

However, these Secret Treasures are extremely rare, requiring great luck to obtain.

"I can't confirm whether it's true or false, we will find out in the future! However, being able to reach the Peak of Profound Pill Realm at twenty shows he has surpassed most Inner Hall disciples in comprehension. He might even enter the Golden Core Realm before thirty." That Inner Hall elder had eyes full of strong expectation.

It's important to know that even at the main headquarters of the Human King Hall, those who can enter the Golden Core Realm before thirty are exceptionally rare.

After all, to enter the Golden Core Realm, one must first raise the Martial Arts Realm to the Seventh Layer of True Intent and develop the True Intent Domain.

And this step requires a significant amount of time.

Like the top ten strong Inner Hall disciples, their cultivation level has basically reached the Peak of Profound Pill Realm, yet they haven't entered the Golden Core Realm.

Because their Martial Arts Realm hasn't reached the Seventh Layer of True Intent yet.

However, the top ten Inner Hall disciples are all still young, not much older than Ye Chen.

Just give them a little more time, and they will certainly step into the Golden Core Realm.

"Entering the Golden Core Realm before thirty is indeed remarkable, but it's not that the faster the cultivation increases, the stronger they'll be; potential is what matters most." An Inner Hall elder commented.

The factors determining a strong person's power are numerous and varied.

Some people's comprehension is heaven-defying, and their early cultivation indeed increases rapidly.

But that doesn't mean their battle prowess can crush others at the same cultivator level.

Some prodigies with heaven-defying physique, even if a bit lacking in comprehension, can still crush those with higher comprehension by leveraging their physiological advantages.

Thus, even if Ye Chen's comprehension surpasses the top ten Inner Hall disciples immensely, he might not necessarily dominate the Inner Hall.

"Elder Luo, Senior Brother Xiao Mo happens to be available and has already accepted Ye Chen's challenge." At this moment, an Inner Hall disciple walked up to Elder Luo with respect and said.

"It's actually Xiao Mo!" Elder Luo couldn't help but furrow his brows tightly, revealing a bitter smile at the corner of his mouth.

It's important to know that Xiao Mo is ranked fourth among the Inner Hall disciples, with immensely powerful strength.

Unexpectedly, Ye Chen would encounter such an opponent.

This is truly unfortunate!

"Haha! That guy's opponent is actually Senior Brother Xiao Mo; this should be quite the show."

"If he were facing Senior Brother Wang, the tenth in the Inner Hall, he might have a fighting chance, but against Senior Brother Xiao Mo, there's no doubt he will lose, with no chance for miracles." Numerous Inner Hall disciples started discussing with amused smiles.

"It seems Ye Chen is destined to lose this time."

"Although Xiao Mo doesn't have a special physique, he has awakened the Zhuyan bloodline, coupled with training in our Human King Hall's cultivation techniques, Ye Chen simply cannot defeat him." Even some Inner Hall elders shook their heads and said.

The Zhuyan bloodline is a Celestial Level Fourth Grade bloodline, extremely powerful.

Moreover, Xiao Mo has raised the bloodline's concentration to four stars, rivaling some Saint Sons and Saintesses of the Five Great Sacred Lands.

Thus, back then, the strong ones from the Five Great Sacred Lands sought to recruit Xiao Mo with great efforts.

However, Xiao Mo ultimately chose to join the Human King Hall.

Because he wants to become a pure-blood Human Race, integrating into the world of pure-blood Humans.

But, during his years with the Human King Hall, Xiao Mo's Zhuyan bloodline was not removed, as it would significantly lower his strength otherwise.

Thus, he can still leverage the power of the Zhuyan bloodline for combat.

What is truly terrifying is that he has also trained in a Cultivation Technique tailored for him by the Human King Hall, further enhancing his power.

Should he master this cultivation technique, he will remain exceptionally strong, even without the Zhuyan bloodline.

By then, he will be able to transform into a true pure-blood Human Race.

So wanting Ye Chen to defeat the newly strengthened Xiao Mo is almost impossible.
