I Have A Bunch Of Saint Apprentices

The moment the door opened, he felt all the hairs on his body stand up!    

That feeling.    

It was like a normal person taking a walk in the wilderness suddenly turning his head around.    

He saw a lion hiding in the grass!    

At that moment, captain of guards felt a chill run down his spine!    

But when he took a closer look, he felt nothing.    

Shen Jun was still the same Shen Jun from before.    

He was still in the Early Period of Emperor Sovereign, and there was no change at all.    

What... what happened?    

Captain of guards was stunned. His mouth was slightly open, and he didn't say anything for a long time.    

It had only been a few hours since they last saw each other, so how could there be any change in this newcomer youth?    

It must be an illusion. It must be an illusion.    

Although this was what he thought in his heart, captain of guards didn't dare to talk to Shen Jun along the way.    

The two of them walked for a quarter of an hour and finally arrived at the largest battle arena under the Heavenly South Arena.    

It was a huge, semicircle arena.    

Countless spectators sat on the viewing platform that was higher than the first floor, and right below it was the arena where the competitors fought with their lives on the line.    

Under captain of guards's lead, Shen Jun walked through the arena with a smile on his face, and arrived in front of the fourth group of participants from Heavenly South Arena, which was also the last individual.    

"You! Go back and stay, this young man will be your seat!"    

Captain of guards pointed at the weakest contestant and ordered without any mercy.    

"This... Sir..."    

"Cut the crap! If I tell you to scram, then hurry up and scram!" captain of guards coldly snorted, his eyes carrying an undisguised threat. "Do you want me to personally invite you down? Hmm? "    

"No... No! I'm leaving, I'm leaving... "    

The contestant who was called was so scared that he trembled. He quickly responded and retreated.    

However, when he left, he glared at Shen Jun, who was standing beside captain of guards.    

Where did this kid come from?! He deserved to die!    

He actually replaced me.    

In order to get on stage this time, this contestant had spent a lot of money to find countless connections. Not to mention spending money, he even owed him a bunch of favors.    

The fourth group of contestants were basically the substitutes of Heavenly South Arena. Most of them were even second-generation grandsons who had squeezed in through their connections.    

These people had never even thought of winning in the competition.    

Once they stepped onto the arena, they would casually exchange a few moves. It would naturally be best if they could have some results. However, if the opponent was too strong, they would definitely not fight to the death with the opponent.    

They came here precisely for the ten Low-grade Spirit Crystal competition fee.    

Even in the Upper Realm, the Spirit Stone was used as a currency.    

An ordinary cultivator would need to use the Spirit Stone for their cultivation and formation. They would also use the Spirit Stone to trade for items.    

The essence of the Spirit Crystal was actually similar to the Spirit Stone.    

It was also a crystallization of the condensed spiritual energy of heaven and earth. However, the amount of spiritual energy contained within a Spirit Crystal was much greater than a Spirit Stone's.    

A single Low-grade Spirit Crystal was equivalent to ten pieces of supreme-grade Spirit Stone.    

For an ordinary Ancestor or even a Great Emperor.    

Ten pieces of Low-grade Spirit Crystal could be considered a considerable amount of wealth.    

To be able to step onto the arena of the Nine Heavens Peak Competition, this was something that many people were envious of.    

As for the contestant who was pushed down, he was extremely furious in his heart.    

This newcomer was clearly only an Early Period of Emperor Sovereign warrior, he was even weaker than himself!    

And why did he have to choose me to leave!    

I'm not the only Middle Period of Emperor Sovereign in this team!    

Why!?    

The reason captain of guards picked him was actually not because of his strength.    

In captain of guards's eyes, everyone in the fourth group, regardless of whether they were at the Middle Period of Emperor Sovereign or the peak of the Late Middle Period of Emperor Sovereign, was nothing.    

Without anyone else, it would not affect the outcome.    

This kid was purely out of luck.    

At this moment, everyone in the fourth group couldn't help but look at Shen Jun a few more times.    

They weren't afraid of Shen Jun's strength.    

Although the contestants in the fourth group were all a bunch of hoodlums, the weakest among them was a Middle Period of Emperor Sovereign.    

They were afraid of Shen Jun because they couldn't figure out the background of this brat.    

It was already absurd for a mere Early Period of Emperor Sovereign to be able to enter the fourth group at the last moment.    

And the one who escorted this kid here was actually captain of guards from Heavenly South Arena?!    

This was the popular person by the deputy president's side!    

It wasn't that these contestants didn't want to come over to inquire about Shen Jun's background.    

But... there was no chance at all!    

After captain of guards sent this kid over, he immediately stopped and didn't leave!    

Furthermore, the posture of these two people was also very spiritual.    

Captain of guards seemed to be standing side by side with this newcomer, but in reality, he slightly leaned sideways and tried his best to use his body to block the side.    

This... This was clearly a protective posture!    

Heavenly South Arena! Yes. captain of guards, personally protecting an unknown newbie?!    

This was not just absurd.    

This was simply absurd!    

This... What was the background of this white clothed youth?    

Could he be the illegitimate child of some big shot? Otherwise, how could he be treated with such courtesy?!    

Hmm... Indeed, this possibility could not be ruled out.    

For a moment, everyone started to secretly speculate about Shen Jun's identity.    

Under the gazes of everyone present, the two parties involved did not care about the gazes of the people around them at all.    

While watching the competition below, captain of guards started to explain the rules of the Nine Heavens Peak Competition to Shen Jun.    

The rules of the Upper Realm were actually similar to the rules of the arena in his previous life.    

In every competition arena, there would be four teams.    

Generally speaking, the first three teams were the main team.    

The fourth group is the mixed army.    

The first three main forces drew lots to participate in the elimination round.    

The mixed army in the fourth group would be selected.    

Only those who were ranked in the top three in the selection would be able to advance to the next elimination round.    

In the past few days, the elimination round had basically been completed.    

Apart from Yama Arena, the other three arenas did not obtain the desired results.    

The Heavenly South Arena was the most miserable one. All three main teams had been eliminated.    

Regarding this, although the higher ups of the Heavenly South Arena were unhappy, they could do nothing about it.    

Although there was some reason for their luck, it was also because they were not as good as the others.    

In all these years in Heavenly South Arena, they had never achieved such a terrible result.    

Just as the group of higher ups were overwhelmed with anxiety, thinking about how to report the mission.    

A slightly hunched figure suddenly appeared in a flash.    

After seeing this person's appearance, the high ranking officials were all stunned.    

"Greetings, Vice President Hai!"    

"Greetings, Vice President!"    

"[Why did the Vice President suddenly come? Why didn't he send someone to greet us in advance?]"    

All the higher-ups were surprised and panicked.    

They thought the vice president was here to denounce them.    

After all... the Peak Competition was in such a state, they couldn't expect to hear anything good about it.    

But there was one thing that was strange.    

The vice president clearly knew about the tragic battle results this time, so why did he purposely show himself?    

Although they were puzzled, the higher-ups were indeed too ashamed to ask.
