Open up and break into another world

Xu Ming looked at Qian Yishang, a sneer hanging on the corner of his mouth: "You mean, you're going to go back on your word?"

Qian Yishang's answer was utterly shameless: "Then consider it going back on my word; what can you do to me? — If you have the guts, come to the God Domain and hit me!"

Having said that, Qian Yishang directly waved his sleeve and left.

Xu Ming was stunned — he had seen shameless people before, but never one as shameless as this.

"City Lord Naihe," Xu Ming asked speechlessly, "Aren't you going to uphold justice for me in this matter?"

City Lord Naihe shook his head and sighed: "I am only responsible for presiding over the trials… Gambling is a private matter between you; I will not interfere."

"Alright…" Xu Ming also knew that City Lord Naihe had his duties and authority; City Lord Naihe couldn't interfere in matters beyond his authority.

"Then can I beat him up now?" Xu Ming asked again, pointing at Qian Yishang's back.

City Lord Naihe still shook his head: "Fighting is prohibited within Naihe City! Moreover, you are just a consciousness body now; even if you wanted to, you couldn't."

A consciousness body doesn't have much fighting power unless it's in a special environment like the Ninefold Realm World.

Xu Ming was depressed: "So, even if he goes back on his word, there's nothing I can do about it?"

City Lord Naihe narrowed his eyes slightly, saying nothing — in fact, he was very dissatisfied with Qian Yishang! However, Qian Yishang had a significant background in the God Domain; even if City Lord Naihe was dissatisfied, he couldn't take action against Qian Yishang; on the contrary, he had to protect him to a certain extent.

After a long while, City Lord Naihe privately transmitted a message to Xu Ming: "You can't beat him now, but… during the third stage of the test, you can!"

"Oh?" Xu Ming's eyes lit up slightly, "Is that so?"

After City Lord Naihe's reminder, Xu Ming was somewhat looking forward to the third stage of the test.

"Going back on a bet?" Xu Ming had a cold smile in the depths of his eyes, "Watch Brother Ming beat you to death!"

…

After Qian Yishang returned to his residence, he still couldn't calm down for a long time.

"I actually… am inferior to a native of the Microcosm World?" Qian Yishang found it somewhat difficult to accept.

This "inferiority" was not just in terms of talent, but in all aspects, including strength and potential! — Qian Yishang couldn't find any aspect in which he was superior to Xu Ming!

This made Qian Yishang feel very frustrated.

"Xu Ming's talent, even in the God Domain, is top-notch! He even has the hope of obtaining the 'Ten-Star' Medal in the future…"

The Ten-Star Medal represents a kind of glory and status in the God Domain!

"However… Xu Ming hasn't obtained the Ten-Star Medal yet; he's just a genius!"

A genius is not the same as a strong person.

In the face of super-powerful forces like the Yellow Springs Palace and Holy Emperor City, the weight of a "genius" is actually relatively low. After all, these great forces have existed for endless, long years, billions of eras, trillions of eras… and "Invincible Geniuses of the God Domain" appear in every era.

The Yellow Springs Palace has seen too many super geniuses!

Super-powerful forces only recognize the strong, not geniuses!

"Hmph! This Xu Ming actually humiliated me so much… If he were in the God Domain, I would definitely capture him and torment him for millions, tens of millions of years!" Qian Yishang's expression was twisted, very morbid.

However, these were just thoughts for Qian Yishang! — After all, Xu Ming was not in the God Domain, but in the Microcosm World!

And wanting to descend from the God Domain to the Microcosm World is extremely difficult!

If the Yellow Springs Palace were in its heyday, it would certainly have a way to descend to the Microcosm World. But now, the Yellow Springs Palace has declined, and its power is not as great as before; the great powers of the Yellow Springs Palace cannot possibly descend to the Microcosm World in their true bodies; at most, they can only send down a consciousness projection — and a consciousness projection can only display some methods in a test environment like the "Ninefold Realm World"; in the real world, it has little fighting power.

Therefore, even if Qian Yishang was furious, there was no way to deal with Xu Ming.

Immediately afterward, Qian Yishang began to panic: "Xu Ming can pass the second level of the Ninefold Realm, his strength is definitely much stronger than mine; in that case, I am no match for Xu Ming in the third stage of the test…"

Only by winning the third stage of the test can one become the General's personal successor and inherit the General's position!

What does the General's position represent?

Yes, Elder Mo Fang is Qian Yishang's uncle. Because of this, Mo Fang went to great lengths to intervene in the "King-Level Trial," trying every means to allow Qian Yishang to inherit the General's position.

"Is it Xiao Shang…" Mo Fang's eyebrows were kind, and he asked with a smile, "Is the King-Level Trial going smoothly?"

Qian Yishang said with a grievance: "Uncle, it's not going well at all!"

"Hmm!?" Elder Mo Fang's expression suddenly sank slightly, "What's going on? Aren't there only ten of you participating in the King-Level Trial? Moreover, the talents and strengths of the other nine are inferior to yours! How could it not be going smoothly? — Could it be that other elders have arranged for more powerful geniuses to compete with you?"

"No!" Qian Yishang said, "A super genius has appeared among the natives of the Microcosm World…"

"A native of the Microcosm World…" Elder Mo Fang fell into deep thought.

Back then, the Yellow Springs Palace suffered a great calamity and even faced destruction! The great powers of the Yellow Springs Palace did indeed leave places of inheritance in many Microcosm Worlds; in this way, if the Yellow Springs Palace in the God Domain were destroyed, at least the inheritance could be preserved.

"I have already paved the way for you like this… You're not going to tell me that you can't even deal with a native genius from the Microcosm World, are you?" Elder Mo Fang looked at his nephew with a strong sense of disappointment! — This Qian Yishang is simply an incompetent fool!

"Uncle, listen to me!" Qian Yishang said quickly, "This native genius is no ordinary person; he has a 'Ten-Star' Heavenly Dao Compatibility; moreover, he has also passed the second level of the Ninefold Realm!"

"What!?" This time, it was Elder Mo Fang's turn to be shocked, "Such a monstrous talent has appeared among the natives of the Microcosm World! ?"

Ten-Star Heavenly Dao Compatibility, passing the second level of the Ninefold Realm, even in the God Domain, is a peerless genius! Moreover, it's in the Microcosm World!

"Yes, Uncle! You must find a way to help me, otherwise, my General's position will be snatched away by that native!" Qian Yishang, unable to defeat Xu Ming, ran back home to ask his parents for help.
