“Have you asked around, who is he?” Han Erxing sitting on one of the Outstanding Experts seats glanced down at Chu Mu.

Han Erxing had always thought Chu Mu was just a small fish. When in Guang Moon Palace, he was sitting near Huang Yufei and other no names. Getting picked by Saintess Yu was just luck.

Yet, Han Erxing didn’t expect this man to appear again and again in his vision. First, he kissed the popular Xuan Teacher Ye in front of him, showing that Ye Qingzi was his woman. Then, in today’s Outstanding Experts Competition, he was sitting on the main Hovering Mountain. This caused Han Erxing to have to reevaluate this man!

“He’s the King of New Moon Land, Chu Mu. He’s extremely low profile. After the New Moon Land battle where he fought once, he has never appeared again at any other important occasion.

Lian Ying was in charge of collecting all sorts of information within Divine Sect. He knew a bit about New Moon Land’s meteoric rise, and told Han Erxing.

“Xuan Teacher Ye was someone Master Official Lu brought from New Moon Land, meaning that they knew each other from long ago. From their relationship, they seem to be engaged.” Divine Sect High Official Lian Ying said with interest.

Han Erxing wore a sullen face. He had oversimplified matters. He didn’t expect Chu Mu to actually have a decent background.

“What, can there be a character that gives even our young master Han a headache?” Sitting aside, Tang Zhuo noticed Han Erxing whispering with Lian Ying, while glancing over at the main Hovering Mountains.

Han Erxing humphed but didn’t respond.

However, Tang Zhuo clearly noticed who Han Erxing was keeping track of and looked over as well.

“Isn’t that the man Saintess Yu left told to stay behind the other day?” Tang Zhuo noticed Chu Mu and rubbed his chin in thought.

Xin Xin also saw Chu Mu and laughed, “So that kid wasn’t as simple as we thought.”

Those that could sit at the main Hovering Mountain meant they were outstanding in some manner. After Tang Zhuo and Xin Xin noticed Chu Mu, they both started guessing who this person was as well.

Sitting on the seats, Chu Mu noticed their furtive gazes and could guess what they were thinking.

There were only a few people that were truly outstanding in the young generation. Coming out of nowhere and receiving recognition obviously brought attention from the people who sat at the top of the younger generation for a long time. Yu Suo’s act of leaving him behind in front of everyone was completely to instigate this conflict further.

Chu Mu hasn’t fought in a while. This conflict was something that Chu Mu enjoyed.

Not long after, the battles began.

The first battle was Gao He facing Departed Spirit Palace’s expert.

Both of them summoned top tier dominator ranks with no big difference in rank.

After testing each other out, both of them also summoned nearly perfect dominator rank soul pets. The final result was Gao He winning by technique.

“Gao He is a dark horse of this Outstanding Experts Competition. He was never been this outstanding in the past!” After the victory, a discussion between the Border Lords sounded out next to Chu Mu.

“When he eliminated the number two character in Demon Beast Palace, it was already a spectacle to be surprised about. Now that he won the first final round match as well, he may be able to compete for the top three.”

“Top three? He’s probably still aways from that. The top three, including Lu Fengxue, are all one step into the immortal rank. Gao He seems to have his limits at paragon dominator rank.

After the battle, Gao He looked relatively calm. He didn’t go back to rest, and instead came back to Chu Mu.

In the following battles, Gao He gave a brief description of each young expert’s identity and strength.

Tang Zhuo’s opponent wasn’t very strong. He didn’t have to go all out to defeat him.

Elemental Sect Xin Xin met Divine Sect’s Lu Fengxue, which caught everyone’s attention.

Lu Fengxue was a female disciple of Divine Sect, and the most dazzling woman in the competition. Being able to step into the final round meant that she was extremely powerful.

Yet, Son of Wind Xin Xin’s fame was also widespread in Zhengming continent. His genius control of wind was unmatched.

On one side was Divine Sect’s powerful female expert, while the other side had Elemental Sect’s wind type genius. The battle between the two definitely caught the attention of all the spectators.

Though his opponent was female, Son of Wind Xin Xin didn’t underestimate his enemies.

Both people used their top tier dominator rank soul pets to test the waters. Only when they started getting into an irresolvable situation did they bring the battle up to paragon dominator rank soul pets.

In the fight between paragon dominator ranks, Son of Wind Xin Xin clearly had the advantage.

Yet, just when people thought the battle was over, Lu Fengxue summoned a soul pet that shocked the entire competition!

Blazing Hibernating Sun!

Covered in the blazing flames of sun, when it appeared on Hovering Mountain battlefield, it was as if the sun fell onto the earth. The powerful and dominating aura spread outwards, and forced many spectators to look away!

This was the power of the immortal ranks!

Xin Xin summoned a total of four soul pets. These four soul pets had two paragon dominator ranks.

However, they all seemed minuscule compared to Lu Fengxue’s Blazing Hibernating Sun!

“She indeed didn't use all her strength in the past battles, this must be her strongest soul pet!”

“Yes, though it’s only near immortal rank, since it stepped into a new rank, dominator ranks shouldn’t pose a large threat to her!”

Chu Mu gazed at Lu Fengxue. Under the lighting of the blazing flames, her tall posture and proud proportions were fully revealed.

Having such strength at her age was indeed fitting of her title of Divine Sect’s genius. Even in all of Zhengming Continent, she was a powerful expert, let alone within her own age group.

Beside her, Gao He was clearly slightly upset, and didn’t give any more explanations.

One could tell that though he had paragon dominator rank soul pets, none stepped into the immortal rank boundary. If he met Lu Fengxue, he would have no chance of winning.

“Sister Fengxue indeed is a role model of our generation. You’re the youngest of us all, yet already have a near immortal rank soul pet…..” Son of Wind Xin Xin backed off from the flames and said from afar.

“Stop being fake, and bring out your real strength!” Lu Fengxue humphed.

The famous Elemental Sect genius Xin Xin only having this strength? Lu Fengxue didn’t believe it.

This fellow definitely had a similarly powerful soul pet. In the past battles, he simply never met anyone worthy of summoning that soul pet!
