Covering the Sky: I, Wang Teng, truly lack the bearing of an emperor.

Right, what about that ancient tribe?

This is a question that everyone is wondering about.

They clearly saw Wang Teng and the creature from the ancient race enter that chaotic spacetime together, but only Wang Teng came out, while the creature from the ancient race did not.

The ancient sage stared coldly at Wang Teng.

"What a remarkable feat! At such a young age, you've already created the rudiments of an imperial technique! If the human race didn't have that peerless quasi-emperor, even if you had ten Great Saints protecting you, we would definitely have nipped you in the bud at this stage!"

The ancient sage spoke, his voice icy cold.

This was not just his sentiment; it was the sentiment shared by several other powerful members of the ancient clans.

The strength Wang Teng displayed was truly extraordinary, not only because he could mobilize the power of the void, but also because of that resounding voice from ancient times to the present.

He hadn't even become a powerful being yet, but he already possessed the rudiments of a technique.

Such a person has unlimited potential for future achievements. Perhaps he can really become a powerful figure like an emperor. Therefore, if given the opportunity, the ancient clan will definitely eliminate Wang Teng at all costs.

Unfortunately, just as he said, the human race has a peerless quasi-emperor. That peerless quasi-emperor alone is enough to give them a headache. They have almost no chance of killing Wang Teng under the nose of a peerless quasi-emperor.

"Want to kill Wang Teng? That's impossible. If anything happens to Wang Teng, then even at any cost, I will storm into the forbidden zone of life and drag down the future of a forbidden zone lord," said the Great Sage Crane.

No one questioned the words of the Crane Saint, because she had once followed the Chaotic Ancient Emperor. The Chaotic Ancient Emperor's weapon was in Wang Teng's hands, but it could still be driven by the Crane Saint.

Although the Chaotic Ancient Emperor is said to have been defeated all the way to becoming an emperor, he was still an emperor, a peak Great Saint wielding an ultimate imperial weapon. When he went to the forbidden zones of life, no matter which forbidden zone it was, it would cause headaches.

"Wang Teng is the bottom line for our human race. If Wang Teng falls, the human race will absolutely fight you at all costs." The white-robed god-king also spoke up to state his position.

His words did not only represent himself, but to a large extent, they represented all the ancient families and holy lands of the Eastern Wilderness.

"Although it's unpleasant to see Wang Teng taking away my spotlight, he is indeed one of my few friends," Qi Hao said.

He remained as arrogant as ever, his gaze sweeping unabashedly over the ancient clans' great saints as he spoke, his eyes filled with no respect but only intense provocation.

For some reason, looking at that gaze, those ancient clans' great saints felt that this guy seemed to be encouraging them to attack Wang Teng.
“Since everyone else has expressed their opinions, let me do the same. Wang Teng has entered the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land before, and his relationship with the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land is quite extraordinary,” Lu Hao said calmly.

Seeing so many people standing up for Wang Teng almost at any cost, even the ancient sages felt a headache coming on.

He's just a teenager, so how can he have such a strong appeal, making so many people willing to risk everything for him!
“We didn’t mean that…” the Great Sage of the Ancient Clan took a deep breath and said.

The human race of today is not the same as it was a million years ago. There are many powerful individuals among the current human race who give them headaches. Even if they really wanted to show hostility, they wouldn't be foolish enough to do so openly. After all, the last person who was that foolish is still sealed away.

"We were merely marveling at Wang Teng's extraordinary talent. We just wanted to point out that your human race has many powerful individuals, and we don't want to completely break ties with you. That's why we said that if your human race didn't have that peerless quasi-emperor," another ancient clan's Great Sage sighed.

"Although we are no match for the human race, we ask that the human race respect us. So, could you please return the youngest daughter of the Qilin Ancient Emperor to us?" a great saint of an ancient race said.

He stared at the small figure beside Yan Ruyu, his eyes filled with anger.

He had known for a long time that there was an ancient empress descendant next to Wang Teng, and had visited her several times to ask for her, but was refused without exception.

Now, taking advantage of this opportunity, he spoke up again.

However, the little girl shook her head.

"I don't want to, I want to go with Brother Wang Teng," Xiao Er Ya said earnestly.

“Your Highness, you are the youngest daughter of the Qilin Ancient Emperor, a descendant of the ancient emperor, and are meant to lead us forward. How can you follow a human?” the ancient great sage said earnestly.

However, no matter what he said, Xiao Er Ya stared at him warily.

Upon hearing this, the ancient clan's Great Sage could only turn his pleading gaze to the other ancient clan's Great Sages, hoping they would stand up and speak on his behalf.

However, none of the ancient clans' great saints spoke.

They looked at the small figure beside Wang Erya with deep apprehension in their eyes.

Although the origin of that person cannot be confirmed, it is not difficult to judge that the person's background is very extraordinary, perhaps comparable to the peerless quasi-emperor of the human race.

This is another reason why the ancient races were wary of the human race.

Although neither the ancient race nor the human race openly discussed many matters, they were both aware of the situation.

“Since the youngest daughter of the Qilin Ancient Emperor wants to stay by that human’s side, then let her stay there,” said a Great Sage of an ancient race.

The Great Sage of the Qilin Ancient Clan was somewhat dissatisfied upon hearing this and wanted to speak, but was stopped by the former with a look.

"Having progressed to this stage in the first three minor realms of the Sendai Secret Realm, there is no need to continue. We concede defeat."

One of the great saints of the ancient race spoke up.

There was nothing they could do; all their carefully prepared trump cards were easily dealt with by Wang Teng, and even the two other half-saints they sent out were killed by Wang Teng.

The strongest combatants in the first three minor realms of the Sendai Secret Realm were all killed by that young man. Sending out seven more slightly weaker ancient race beings would be meaningless and would only cause them to die in vain.

Rather than wasting time and lives, it's better to just make them admit defeat.

Hearing the words of the Great Sage of the Ancient Clan, those ancient clans who were in the first three minor realms of the Sendai Secret Realm all breathed a sigh of relief.

They were also worried that they would be singled out and sent out to face Wang Teng.

Although they didn't fight face-to-face, just seeing how decisively the young man dealt with the two half-saints made them realize that the young man's strength was absolutely formidable.

If they were allowed to go up there, they probably wouldn't even last a single breath before being swiftly and decisively killed.

"Alright! You've conceded again. You've already lost three major matches. Do you still want to continue?" Black Emperor asked with a grin.

"Continue!" The Great Sage of the Ancient Clan's face darkened slightly.

He gets a headache whenever he has any interaction with this big black dog.

It was as if the big black dog's mouth was inside their stomachs, making them feel nauseous whenever it opened its mouth.

"Alright! Let's continue!" Black Emperor said with a smile.

Perhaps because the first three games went too smoothly, the human race was at a great disadvantage in the later games.

A human ancient saint who had just broken the seal was killed by a saint from an ancient royal family. Then, the saint from the ancient royal family refused to leave the arena and continued to suppress another human ancient saint.

However, the second ancient saint from the human race was also very powerful. He almost defeated the ancient royal saint by severely injuring himself. Both were badly injured and were hastily eliminated from the arena. In the third match, the tortoise saint from the demon race entered the arena.

"Ha, is there no one left in the human race? They actually sent a tortoise to the stage?" The sage from the ancient race sneered.

"Heh." The tortoise saint chuckled, his eyes filled with disdain.

As expected, no matter how hard the ancient sage tried, he couldn't break through the tortoise shell once the battle began.

In the end, he was the one who was eliminated by that tortoise saint.

"Next," the Turtle Sage said lazily.

He also replaced two sages of the ancient clan.

However, in the realm of sages, the ancient races indeed had the upper hand, and the human race lost three more matches. Although they later invited an ancient sage from the Supreme Hall to come out and win two matches, they still lost by a large margin.

"Hehe, it seems that in these last few realms, we are still slightly stronger!" The Great Sage of the Ancient Clan chuckled.

In the realm of Saint King, the White-Clad God King fought two against one. Although his white robes were stained with blood, he still managed to eliminate two ancient Saint Kings despite being at the initial stage of Saint King.

"It's truly remarkable that you've reached this level in an era of great change. Your foundation and combat power are far stronger than those of other Saint Kings," said one of the Great Saints of the ancient race.

Although he lost two games, he didn't seem to care much, because there were still three more games to go.

But as soon as the Feather Saint from the Supreme Hall entered the arena, the smile on his face disappeared, and his expression became serious.

"Isn't the Supreme Hall supposed to be completely neutral and detached from worldly affairs? Why are you here?" a Great Sage of an ancient clan asked.

He couldn't help but take this seriously, because this person came from the legendary Supreme Hall. It was said that some ancient emperors had even joined the Supreme Hall. Although there was no clear record of this among the ancient clans, those people in the Supreme Hall were able to use the ancient emperors' inheritances.

"You really have a bad memory. Not long ago, I was personally kicked out of the Supreme Hall by our young master. Now I am just an ordinary Saint King with no power to rely on."

Yu Sheng spoke, and couldn't help but sigh softly.

Upon seeing this, the Great Sage of the Ancient Clan's eyelids twitched.

He doesn't believe a damn thing!
This guy spoke up for the human race when he was in the Supreme Holy Land, and now he's found a lame excuse to continue fighting for them.

But he was helpless because the other party had at least made an excuse.

If they continue to insist on this, then they will be the ones in the wrong.

With a dark expression, he sent out a Saint King, who, unsurprisingly, was easily suppressed by the Feather Saint.

Although that guy claimed to be a servant of the Supreme Hall, it was clear that he possessed more than just the legacy of a single emperor.

He even used the legacy of the Qilin Ancient Emperor in front of that Great Sage of the Qilin Ancient Royal Family.

"Next," Yu Sheng said with a smile.

"Can't you send someone else up?" the Great Sage of the Ancient Clan asked with a dark face.

"When we first set the rules, didn't we say that the winner could continue to stand on the stage and accept challenges?" Yu Sheng said with a smile.

This rule wasn't even proposed by the humans; rather, they induced the ancient races to propose it.

The great sage of the ancient clan also came to his senses at this moment, and his face darkened even more.

When they set this rule, they reasoned that their ancient clan was clearly stronger, and that setting this rule would be more advantageous to their clan.

But who could have imagined that the human race not only had those few prodigies, but also reinforcements they had invited from outside?

He did consider breaking off relations, but what would happen if relations broke off?
The fact that the saints and saint kings of the Supreme Hall were able to participate in this battle meant, to some extent, that they had already obtained permission from the mysterious hall master. Even he himself couldn't guarantee what he would face if he were to participate.

"Next match, the Great Saint Battle!" The Great Saint of the Ancient Clan directly forfeited to participate in the final match.

He stood up and walked into the arena himself.

On the human side, the Great Sage Crane walked gracefully to the center of the arena.

In fact, both the Great Sage of the Crane and the Great Sage of the Ancient Clan were able to borrow supreme imperial weapons, but from the beginning, they had set a rule that they were not allowed to use weapons that exceeded their own realm, so they could only use their own weapons in battle.

"Fellow Daoist, please enlighten me," the Great Sage Crane said.

"Please!" The Great Sage of the Ancient Clan nodded.

Although this mountain was hastily erected, they still laid out measures inside and outside the mountain in order to enable it to withstand the attacks of sages to a certain extent. They even had several supreme imperial weapons to suppress the void.

Even so, a battle at the Saint King level is the limit of this arena. If a Great Saint were to fight, they would need to go to the endless deep space.

Because they did not fully awaken the Supreme Emperor Weapon; they merely used it to suppress the void.

"A battle from beyond the heavens!" the Great Sage Crane exclaimed.

The ancient sage nodded, and the two figures instantly tore through the void and headed towards the heavens.

Although they were fighting in a foreign land, others could still witness the battle to some extent. The Ji family used the Void Mirror to broadcast the battle live.

However, as the battle intensified, apart from the sage, the others could no longer even see the movements of the two figures in the mirror.

Soon the two figures returned to the ground.

"Fellow Daoist, you flatter me," said the Great Sage Crane.

"Next match!" the Great Sage of the Ancient Clan said with a dark face.

Of course, he didn't lose this match, but he didn't win either.

If a powerful being at the peak of the Great Sage realm were to insist on fighting, it could indeed shatter vast swathes of planets and easily result in the fall of a saint. Therefore, they stopped short of completely going mad.

That's why the battle ended in a draw, with the two players tacitly agreeing to fight to a standstill.

However, the ancient race was at a huge disadvantage. Even if they fought to a draw, they could not reverse the ancient race's disadvantage.

In the next match, another Great Sage, completely unfamiliar to everyone, emerged from the human race.

"No way, is your Supreme Hall never going to stop?!" (End of Chapter)
