Open up and break into another world

The Flood Dragon Army consisted of only a few thousand soldiers.

Each soldier in the Flood Dragon Army was an elite among elites!

And the "Ninth Token" in Xu Ming's hand represented—he was ranked ninth in the Flood Dragon Army!

Yes!

Ranked ninth!

Having just entered the Flood Dragon Army, yet ranked ninth! Anyone could guess that Xu Ming's ranking would definitely attract countless jealousies!

“Although I entered the Flood Dragon Army without an assessment, perhaps this is the Azure Dragon Envoy's assessment for me?” Xu Ming thought to himself, “Giving me the ‘Ninth Token’ directly as a reward means that if I don’t have enough strength, I definitely won’t be able to keep the Ninth Token, and my ranking will continuously drop, perhaps even directly out of the Flood Dragon Army!”

Relying solely on absorbing the energy of heaven and earth is far from enough!

Xu Ming had calculated that if he wanted to open up his "Heart Universe" into eight quadrants, he would probably need to consume hundreds of "Universe Origin · Truth"!

Xu Ming currently has a total of only three hundred or so "Universe Origin · Truth" in his hand, which may not even be enough for him to open up the eight quadrants!

But now, Xu Ming has discovered the "Flood Dragon Pool," and his eyes lit up!

“What a great place!”

Xu Ming did not hesitate and directly signed up for cultivation in the Flood Dragon Pool.

One must know that everyone in the Flood Dragon Army wants to enter the Flood Dragon Pool for cultivation; however, only one person can enter the Flood Dragon Pool each time!

So, who gets to enter for cultivation first—very simple, the person with the higher ranking has priority.

For example, right now, there are hundreds of experts who have already signed up for cultivation in the Flood Dragon Pool before Xu Ming; however, as soon as Xu Ming signed up, he was directly ranked ahead of the hundreds of experts—as soon as the expert currently cultivating in the Flood Dragon Pool finishes, Xu Ming will immediately be able to enter for cultivation!

Xu Ming couldn't help but feel expectant: “The Flood Dragon Pool has an unlimited supply of energy?—If I can open up the eight quadrants in one fell swoop within the Flood Dragon Pool and break through my cultivation to the Earth Supreme, that would be awesome!”

Although Xu Ming's outwardly displayed cultivation is that of a "Lower Earth Supreme," this is just his disguised cultivation; his true cultivation is still only that of an "Upper Human Supreme"!

“If I can smoothly break through to the ‘Lower Earth Supreme,’ then even without using the World-Breaking Spear, I can still fight against a ‘Middle Heaven Supreme’!” Xu Ming thought to himself, “Combined with the ‘Infinite Resurrection’ cheat, I can simply walk sideways in the Three Realms Universe!”

Xu Ming is now only a little bit away from “walking sideways.”

…

Flood Dragon Army Barracks.

Inside the Tenth Palace, more than a dozen Flood Dragon Army soldiers were gathered.

These dozen or so experts were all gathered around a stone table; and beside the stone table, a black-robed expert was sitting, his gaze incomparably cold.

Boom!!!

This black-robed expert suddenly slammed the stone table violently.

The entire stone table instantly exploded, not even leaving a trace of dust.

“Damn it!” The black-robed expert's expression was gloomy, “I’ve been begging for so long, but the Azure Dragon Envoy wouldn’t give me the Ninth Palace, and instead gave it to a newcomer?”

The Tenth Palace and the Ninth Palace may seem to be only one rank apart, but in reality, they are very different!

Because… there is only one palace each from the First to the Ninth Palace; while there are ten Tenth Palaces!—That is to say, like the black-robed expert, there are still nine other people who live in the “Tenth Palace” and hold the “Tenth Token”!

But there is only one person who owns the Ninth Palace, Xu Ming!

This is the difference!

“I heard… this newcomer didn’t even participate in the Azure Dragon Army’s assessment and directly entered the Flood Dragon Army as an exception!” The more the black-robed expert thought about it, the more angry he became, “What qualifications does he have to enter the Flood Dragon Army? What strength does he have to hold the ‘Ninth Token’?”

The black-robed expert was very unconvinced!—He didn’t know that Xu Ming had entered the Flood Dragon Army directly and held the Ninth Token because he had made great contributions. He still thought that this newcomer, “Man Dun,” was the descendant of some Heaven Supreme, and had entered the Flood Dragon Army through connections.

And in a place like the Flood Dragon Army, where strength is respected, they look down on “nepotism” the most!

“Senior Brother Long, why don’t you challenge that Man Dun?”

“That’s right! Senior Brother Long! Our Flood Dragon Army has always respected strength! Even if that Man Dun is the descendant of some Heaven Supreme, if he can’t keep the Ninth Token and the Ninth Palace, then he can only blame himself for being too weak, and he can’t blame us!”

“That’s right! This is the Flood Dragon Army! A place that values strength!”

Beside the black-robed expert, more than a dozen experts couldn’t help but persuade him.

The black-robed expert, “Long Sheng,” couldn’t help but be tempted, pondering whether to challenge “Man Dun”; but at the same time, he was also afraid of offending the Heaven Supreme behind Man Dun—after all, in his opinion, Man Dun was definitely the descendant of some Heaven Supreme; otherwise, how could he have entered the Flood Dragon Army directly without an assessment?

“What if the Heaven Supreme expert behind this Man Dun has a petty personality and holds grudges…” Long Sheng couldn’t make up his mind for a while. After all, he hadn’t figured out Man Dun’s background yet; it would be embarrassing if he accidentally offended some Heaven Supreme!

He couldn’t afford to offend a Heaven Supreme!

But just then, Long Sheng’s “Tenth Token” vibrated.

“What’s going on?” Long Sheng couldn’t help but take out the Tenth Token—if there was nothing happening, the Tenth Token would not vibrate.

The younger brothers around him couldn’t help but envy when they saw the “Tenth Token” in Long Sheng’s hand—this token represents strength! It represents that Long Sheng has the strength of the top twenty in the Flood Dragon Army!

“Huh?” However, after Long Sheng saw the message on the “Tenth Token,” his face changed slightly, “Damn it! This is simply too much!”

“What’s wrong, Senior Brother Long?” The surrounding younger brothers asked one after another.

Long Sheng’s expression was ferocious as he said, “Didn’t I sign up for cultivation in the Flood Dragon Pool? That Man Dun actually signed up for the Flood Dragon Pool as soon as he came, pushing me to the back! I have to wait until he finishes cultivating before I can enter the Flood Dragon Pool for cultivation!—Isn’t this too much?”

Long Sheng was originally hesitating whether to challenge “Man Dun”; now, he couldn’t bear it even more!

“Help me find out what the background of this Man Dun is!” Long Sheng said coldly, “I want to see just how big of a background he has that he dares to be so arrogant!”

Long Sheng still had some connections.

Soon, he found out—that “Man Dun” was not the descendant of any Heaven Supreme, but had obtained the “Ninth Token” because he had made a contribution.

“So it turns out that he just had good luck and made a small contribution!” Long Sheng was immediately free of all scruples, “I thought he had some great background!—Help me send a challenge letter! I want to see if this ‘Man Dun’ dares to accept the challenge!”
