Monarch of Time

Chapter 651 Liu Mei“s figh

Of course, those 8 white-robed figures naturally belonged to the outer court Elders who would be responsible for the 8 platforms.

At the same time that the white-robed outer court Elders appeared in front of the 8 platforms, 16 sect identifying tokens among the disciples in the crowd seemed to have lit up as well, and surprisingly, one of those tokens was actually Liu Mei's token.

''Mei'er, good luck!'' Shun Long looked at Liu Mei and smiled before he spoke in a gentle voice.

Liu Mei flashed Shun Long a bright smile in response before she flew towards one of the 8 platforms inside the arena.

''Aren't those people too weak? Even the strongest of them is only at the peak of rank 5 in the Nascent Soul...''

Jiang Chen who had been observing the other 15 outer court disciples that had flown into the arena before Liu Mei, exclaimed out in surprise when he sensed those disciples' auras.

Even the strongest of them was just at the peak of rank 5 in the Nascent Soul while the other 14 were either at the early rank 5 or the middle of rank 5 in the Nascent Soul respectively.

Although this level of cultivation would be considered above average in the outside world, inside the Holy sect it was truly considered extremely weak.

Xingyi and Bai Longtian both nodded their heads with some confusion in their eyes, while even Shun Long had a puzzled look on his face when noticed this.

Normally speaking, although Liu Mei's cultivation was considered above average within the outer court, most of the outer court disciples should still be at the rank 6 or the early rank 7 in the Nascent Soul.

To see so many of them who were only at the early rank 5 or the middle of rank 5 of the Nascent Soul fight in the arena at the same time was weird.

At that moment, a bald young man at the early rank 7 of the Nascent Soul who was standing close to Jiang Chen, seemed to have overheard what Jiang Chen had said now, and turned to look at him with a weird look on his face before he said

''Too weak? It's your friend who is too strong! Don't you know that the fights in the Martial Roll of Honor start from the weakest outer disciples to the strongest? How come your friend is ranked at the bottom when she has entered the late stages of the Nascent Soul already? Did she go there to bully the others?''

Shun Long, Jiang Chen, Xingyi, and Bai Longtian all turned to look at this young man who was sitting next to Jiang Chen with looks of realization on their faces, as they suddenly understood what was going on.

Indeed, if someone had never fought in the Martial Roll of Honor before, it was only natural that their ranking would be at the very bottom during their first fight.

Shun Long's group had entered the Holy sect just 10 months ago, but they had spent most of their time either cultivating in peace, taking on a few missions, participating in faction wars, or occasionally visiting the Holy city and even participating in the battles inside the Dao Tower to increase their Dao comprehension.

Neither Shun Long nor anyone else from his faction had bothered with the Martial Roll of Honor.

Since the Martial Roll of Honor tournament was taking place soon, they would be able to fight against the strongest disciples in the Holy sect by then anyway, so until then, all they had to do was increase their strength as much as they could.

After all, everyone from Shun Long's faction knew, that their biggest weakness within the sect was their low cultivation level.

Bai Longtian and the rest all believed, that as long as they could breakthrough to the peak of the Nascent Soul, or even the Dao King realm, they could fight against the strongest geniuses of the Holy sect as well.

At the same time that the bald young man's voice sounded in Shun Long's and the others' ears, the crowd seemed to have exploded in discussions at the same time, as everyone was now looking at the yellow-robed Liu Mei who had just landed on one of the platforms.

''Who is this girl? She has actually reached the peak of rank 7 in the Nascent Soul but she is participating in the beginning fights? What is going on?''

''Hey, isn't this Liu Mei?''

''It's the death goddess from Shun Long's faction, Liu Mei! No wonder she is ranked so low! This is probably her first Martial Roll of Honor tournament. I heard that those monsters from Shun Long's faction only entered the sect 10 months ago after all!''

Although most of them didn't know Liu Mei, there were still plenty of outer disciples who recognized her as soon as they saw her peerlessly beautiful face appear on the platform.

Putting Liu Mei's beauty aside, just from the faction war that Shun Long's faction had against Peng Chao's faction, less than a month ago, there had been plenty of outer court disciples present that day, and many of them recognized her with just a glance.

After all, the person who had created the most visual impact on those outer court disciples wasn't Jiang Chen with his astonishing strength or Xingyi with her Vanishing Shadows unique physique, but this terrifying death goddess that could summon undead creatures and could even control the corpses of her enemies.

At the same time, the outer court Elder in front of Liu Mei's platform was also somewhat surprised when he sensed Liu Mei's cultivation, while the face of the young man in front of her instantly paled,

He was only a middle rank 5 Nascent Soul cultivator but he had to fight against a peak rank 7 Nascent Soul opponent? How was this fair?

Unfortunately, there was no one to help him today, as the outer court Elder only inspected his and Liu Mei's token for a moment before he declared in a cold voice

''Begin!''

A single, jade-white skeleton who was holding a bony sword appeared in the arena in the next moment, its eyes staring at the yellow-robed young man in front of it with hints of bloodlust inside them.

The skeleton's light green embers in his eye sockets flickered once, before the dwarf-like undead creature ran straight towards the yellow-robed young man in front of it.

And yet, although the skeleton's stature was short, its aura at the middle of rank 7 in the Nascent Soul was terrifying to the yellow-robed young man in front of it.

The fight only lasted for a single moment, before the young man in front of Liu Mei collapsed on the ground and consciousness.
