Open up and break into another world

"What? I'm directly eliminated!?"

Xu Ming simply couldn't believe his ears.

In an event like the "Xu Ming Hegemony Battle," those "high-imitation Xu Mings" easily passed the registration, yet the "genuine Xu Ming" failed to register?

"Heh!" The cold and beautiful female cultivator glanced at Xu Ming with disdain, sneering, "If you're going to pretend to be Xu Ming, at least try to look the part, okay? — Your appearance, your aura, is there anything that resembles Xu Ming? How could I possibly let you pass the registration?"

"I don't look like Xu Ming?" Xu Ming was speechless. "Have you even seen Xu Ming before?"

"Although I haven't seen Xu Ming in person, but…" The cold and beautiful female cultivator said, her eyes full of longing and yearning, "I've seen images of Xu Ming! Xu Ming possesses an extraordinary temperament and a domineering demeanor! His eyes are like sword qi piercing through the ages; his…"

The cold and beautiful female cultivator spoke at length, clearly showing that she was a loyal supporter of Xu Ming.

However, the cold and beautiful female cultivator suddenly changed her tone.

"And you—I can't see even a trace of Xu Ming in you!"

"This…" Xu Ming was speechless—how could he prove that he was Xu Ming?

Did he have to display his strength?

But… without using the "Infinite Clones," Xu Ming's strength was only at the peak of the Wilderness Realm; and among those "high-imitation Xu Mings," there were many at the ninth-order peak of the Wilderness Realm, or even the limit of the Wilderness Realm!

So, even if Xu Ming wanted to prove that he was really Xu Ming, it wouldn't be an easy task!

"Step aside! Don't affect others' registration!" The cold and beautiful female cultivator coldly confronted him; her eyes seemed to say—please don't insult my idol.

"I…" Xu Ming opened his mouth weakly, but finally gave up—forget it!

It didn't matter if he didn't participate in this hegemony battle, he could just be a spectator!

…

Xu Ming felt complicated, silently retreating to the spectator area, and dejectedly started drinking tea.

As the "genuine Xu Ming," yet unable to participate in the "Xu Ming Hegemony Battle," Xu Ming felt that he had really lost all of "Xu Ming's" face.

On the battle stage, hundreds of "high-imitation Xu Mings" began to appear one after another.

The shouts from the spectator area were even more… bizarre!

"Xu Ming!"

"Xu Ming!"

"Xu Ming will win!"

"Xu Ming is invincible!"

Every shout of support was yelling Xu Ming's name.

However, the two high-imitation Xu Mings fighting on the battle stage simply couldn't distinguish which side these shouts were cheering for; after all… they were both "Xu Ming."

The genuine Xu Ming, drinking tea in the spectator area, was even more speechless, silently muttering in his heart: "Your Brother Ming is here…"

At this time, a boisterous expert sat down at the same table as Xu Ming.

He glanced at Xu Ming, and asked suspiciously, "Why aren't you participating in the Xu Ming Hegemony Battle?"

Xu Ming sighed and said, "I was eliminated before I even passed the registration…"

"Your appearance does indeed differ somewhat from the Xu Ming in the images!" The boisterous expert shook his head and said.

Then, he ordered a pot of tea, directly lifted the teapot, and took a few big gulps.

Putting down the teapot, he cupped his fist at Xu Ming and said, "I am 'Feng Xiong,' how may I address you, brother?"

Xu Ming also cupped his fist: "Xu Ming!"

"I'm asking for your real name!" Feng Xiong said again.

"Real name…" Xu Ming didn't even know how to say his real name anymore…

On the battle stage, the "Xu Ming Hegemony Battle" was still in full swing.

Feng Xiong was a straightforward person.

Although he thought that Xu Ming was not being candid enough by not revealing his real name, after a while, he leaned over to chat with Xu Ming again: "I say, 'fake Xu Ming,' do you know why the 'Xu Ming Hegemony Battle' is being held?"

"Why?" Xu Ming really didn't know.

"This 'Xu Ming Hegemony Battle' is actually organized by the Azure Phoenix Alliance!" Feng Xiong said proudly, obviously wanting to show off, "The Azure Phoenix Alliance is doing this to attract the attention of the 'real Xu Ming'!"

Attract the attention of the "real Xu Ming"?

Xu Ming felt even more speechless—he had already been attracted here, but the Azure Phoenix Alliance didn't even give him a chance to register!

"Isn't it said that the champion of the 'Xu Ming Hegemony Battle' can receive guidance from Xu Ming?" Xu Ming asked doubtfully, "But according to you, the Azure Phoenix Alliance hasn't even contacted Xu Ming yet, so how can they have Xu Ming provide guidance?"

Feng Xiong gave Xu Ming a "what do you know" look, and continued to show off: "Once they attract Xu Ming's attention, won't they be able to contact Xu Ming?"

"That's true…" Xu Ming echoed.

"But… what benefits can the Azure Phoenix Alliance gain from attracting Xu Ming's attention?"

The newest novels are first published at Liu 6 9 Shu Ba!

"You wouldn't know this, would you!" Feng Xiong smiled and said, "The Azure Phoenix Alliance is considered a very powerful force in the Ancient Remnant Realm!

Among many first-rate forces, they are at the very top!

However… compared to peak forces like the Divine Phoenix Alliance and the Covenant Alliance, there is still a significant gap!

The Azure Phoenix Alliance has always wanted to become a peak force in the Ancient Remnant Realm, and now, this is an opportunity!"

"Opportunity?"

"Yes!" Feng Xiong continued, "Xu Ming's strength is beyond doubt!

If the Azure Phoenix Alliance can invite Xu Ming to join, they can completely become a peak force!"

"Oh…" Xu Ming suddenly understood—so that was the meaning of the "Xu Ming Hegemony Battle."

However…

Xu Ming had been attracted here, but… he had been kicked out by the Azure Phoenix Alliance…

Xu Ming really wanted to see what kind of expression the Azure Phoenix Alliance would have if they knew that they had driven away the "genuine Xu Ming."

The "Xu Ming Hegemony Battle" continued in full swing.

The further it went, the stronger the "high-imitation Xu Mings" on the battle stage became!

Even, both sides of the battle were at the limit of the Wilderness Realm; even if Xu Ming personally went up, he might not be able to win without using the "Myriad Dao Udumbara Flower" and "Infinite Clones."

"It seems… I have to improve my strength!" Xu Ming thought to himself, "Otherwise… if I can't beat the fake versions of myself, I'll lose face big time!"

Fortunately, for Xu Ming, improving his strength was actually very simple!

—Currently, Xu Ming's "Eternal Power" cheat only summoned souls at the peak of the Wilderness Realm!

He now had enough cheat points, as long as he summoned souls at the peak of the Myriad Manifestations Realm, his strength could instantly increase to the Myriad Manifestations Realm!

"No rush!" Improving his strength was simply too easy, so Xu Ming wasn't in a hurry at all.

Just then…

Boom!!!

A terrifying pressure instantly enveloped the entire Azure Phoenix City!

Above Azure Phoenix City, the originally daytime sky suddenly turned pitch black.
