Open up and break into another world

Xu Ming was just about to head to the Flood Dragon Pool to cultivate when suddenly, his "Ninth Token" vibrated.

"What?" Xu Ming couldn't help but be slightly stunned after seeing the message on the "Ninth Token." "The holder of the 'Eighth Token,' 'Wu Dian,' actually signed up to cultivate in the Flood Dragon Pool and pushed me back in line?"

The rule of the Flood Dragon Pool was—whoever has a higher rank in the Flood Dragon Army has priority to use the Flood Dragon Pool!

For example, the holder of the "First Token," if he wanted to, could even monopolize the Flood Dragon Pool and prevent any other Flood Dragon Army member from cultivating!

Originally, when Xu Ming signed up to cultivate in the Flood Dragon Pool, he held the "Ninth Token," making him the highest-ranked member of the entire Flood Dragon Army! Therefore, he didn't have to wait long—the member currently cultivating in the Flood Dragon Pool was already nearing the end of their cultivation; it wouldn't be long before Xu Ming could enter the Flood Dragon Pool!

But now, just as Xu Ming was about to get up and head to the Flood Dragon Pool, Wu Dian suddenly appeared and cut in line ahead of him!

How could this be allowed?—You must know that a powerhouse at the 'Earth Supreme' realm could easily cultivate for several epochs, or even longer! Was Xu Ming supposed to wait for Wu Dian for several epochs?

To take a step back—even if Wu Dian was just going to the Flood Dragon Pool to take a bath and only needed a few hours, Xu Ming couldn't possibly let Wu Dian cut in front of him!

Only Brother Ming cuts in front of others; how could he let others cut in front of Brother Ming?

If he didn't want Wu Dian to cut in line, what could he do?

"Fortunately!" Xu Ming couldn't help but think to himself, "Wu Dian is the Eighth Token!—Although I don't have any battle achievements right now, I'm just qualified to challenge the Eighth Token!"

The Eighth Token was only one rank higher than Xu Ming's Ninth Token! Therefore, if Xu Ming wanted to challenge the "Eighth Token," he could do so at any time!

To be honest, Xu Ming hadn't originally planned to challenge the Eighth Token; he had planned to directly tear open all the challenge letters after coming out of the Flood Dragon Pool and accept all the challenges! Then, after defeating those challengers, Xu Ming would have enough battle achievements to directly challenge the "First Token!"

But now, since Wu Dian had suddenly appeared, Xu Ming had no choice but to challenge him first, lest the other party delay his entry into the Flood Dragon Pool.

"Isn't it just a challenge letter? Am I incapable of writing one?"

Xu Ming immediately started writing the challenge letter.

Xu Ming's challenge letter was concise and clear, without any superfluous words, just two words: "Prepare to die!"

…

Tenth Palace Hall.

After receiving the replies from his two lackeys, Long Sheng was naturally furious: "Line up?—Ridiculous! It's clear that Man Dun doesn't dare to accept the challenge, so even though he accepted the challenge letter, he doesn't dare to open it!"

Anyone can write a challenge letter.

However, the challenged party doesn't necessarily have to open it immediately after receiving the challenge letter.

"Hmph!" Long Sheng sneered again. "But… does Man Dun think he'll be fine if he doesn't open the challenge letter? That's too naive!—After receiving the challenge letter, the challenged party must accept the challenge within one epoch at most! Hmph! One epoch is just a snap of the fingers; I'll see how Man Dun will drag it out after one epoch!"

For a normal "Earth Supreme" powerhouse, one epoch is indeed just a snap of the fingers, too short!

Of course, for Xu Ming, one epoch would be enough for earth-shattering changes to occur to him!

"It's just…" Long Sheng couldn't help but frown slightly. "Before me, there are more than ten powerhouses who challenged Man Dun; among them, there are even nine others who hold the 'Tenth Token'… It would be quite troublesome if Man Dun accepted the challenges of others first!"

After all… Long Sheng and the other nine powerhouses holding the "Tenth Token" were all about the same strength! Among the other nine powerhouses, no matter who obtained the Ninth Token, Long Sheng might not be able to replace them!

The challenge rules of the Flood Dragon Army were originally "defending is easy, attacking is difficult."

The challenged party wins as long as they don't lose within a certain period! And the challenger must defeat the challenged party to succeed!—The ten holders of the "Tenth Token" are all about the same strength; then, whoever obtains the "Ninth Token" first, it will be difficult for others to snatch it from him!

And this was exactly what frustrated Long Sheng—he issued his challenge letter too late! It was almost impossible for the Ninth Token to fall into his hands!

"Damn it!" Long Sheng was extremely frustrated. "Why doesn't Man Dun, that trash, dare to directly accept my challenge?"

Just then…

A shocking piece of news broke out within the Flood Dragon Army—Man Dun, who had just joined the Flood Dragon Army, issued a challenge letter to Wu Dian, the holder of the "Eighth Token"! Wu Dian had already accepted the challenge, and the battle would begin immediately!

"What! ?" After seeing this news, Long Sheng simply couldn't believe it. "Man Dun… challenging Wu Dian?"

Who was Wu Dian?

He was the holder of the "Eighth Token"!

Moreover, among the Flood Dragon Army, none of the ten holders of the "Tenth Token," including Long Sheng, dared to challenge Wu Dian—not because they couldn't defeat him, but because they didn't even have the courage to challenge him!

From this, one could also imagine the great prestige of Wu Dian in the Flood Dragon Army!

But now, the newcomer "Man Dun" dared to challenge Wu Dian?

"Isn't this courting death?" Long Sheng couldn't help but think.

At the same time, Long Sheng was even more frustrated—if Man Dun was killed by Wu Dian, then the "Ninth Token" would be taken back by the Azure Dragon Envoy; at that time, none of the ten holders of the "Tenth Token," including Long Sheng, would have the opportunity to obtain the Ninth Token!

Now, although it was almost impossible for Long Sheng to obtain the "Ninth Token," he still had a slim chance! If the "Ninth Token" was taken back by the Azure Dragon Envoy, then Long Sheng would have no chance at all!

"Damn it!" Thinking of this, Long Sheng couldn't help but curse in his heart, "This Man Dun… even if you want to seek death, can you first open my challenge letter, accept my challenge, and give me the 'Ninth Token' first?"

Long Sheng had been fantasizing about obtaining the Ninth Token for who knows how long! But now, the fantasy was shattered once again!—In his opinion, Man Dun challenging Wu Dian was just going to his death!

"Go to the Flood Dragon Battle Stage!" Long Sheng got up murderously—the battle between Man Dun and Wu Dian was about to begin! For Long Sheng, since he couldn't get the "Ninth Token," then he would go see how Man Dun died!

His lackeys naturally followed closely behind.

…

Like Long Sheng, there were not only Long Sheng who were murderous and headed straight to the Flood Dragon Battle Stage! Every Flood Dragon Army member who had issued a challenge letter to "Man Dun," or was preparing to issue a challenge letter to "Man Dun," was now also heading murderously to the Flood Dragon Battle Stage in uncontrollable rage.

Since they couldn't get the "Ninth Token," they wanted to see with their own eyes how Man Dun died!
