War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Huang Quan An was a participant with an unknown background. No one would have known about his true strength if it were not for his battle with Yu Dong Fang previously. He had comprehended the law of time and the law of time's Instant Vicissitudes of Life. With this, he was invincible against those who were weaker than Six Star Gods of War.

"It's Huang Quan An's turn!"

Prior to the battle between Huang Quan An and Yu Dong Fang, the crowd had no idea at all who would rank first in the Devata Realms' Battle of the Geniuses. However, after that battle, many people thought Huang Quan An had a high chance of ranking first.

"If there's no participant with the strength of a Six Star God of War, with Huang Quan An's Instant Vicissitudes of Life, no one will be a match for him."

"A participant as strong as a Six Star God of War? Well, I don't think there's anyone like that. Hence, I'm certain Huang Quan An will rank first."

"A Six Star God of War is considered an elite even among the subordinates of the Heavenly Emperors of the various Devata Realms. In fact, not many of their subordinates have such strength. Do you really think someone below the age of 1,000 will have such strength?"

No one thought there was a participant as strong as a Six Star God of War in the Devata Realms' Battle of the Geniuses. Since the inception of the Devata Realms' Battle of the Geniuses, there were perhaps, fewer than 10 participants who possessed the strength of a Six Star God of War.

The Devata Realms' Battle of the Geniuses was held once every 1,000 years. No one knew the details except for the Title Temple, but they roughly knew the Devata Realms' Battle of the Geniuses had been going on for at least 1,000,000 years.

This meant that over the past 1,000,000 years, they were only less than 10 participants with the strength of a Six Star Gods of War in the Devata Realms' Battle of the Geniuses. This also meant, on average, a participant as strong as a Six Star God of War would only appear once every 100,000 years.

With such a small probability, it was no wonder no one thought there were participants as strong as Six Star Gods of War.

Swoosh!

Huang Quan An, who had an ordinary appearance, flew into the battle ring.

"Huang Quan An, who'd you like to challenge?" Xu Kong Hai, who was usually expressionless, looked at Huang Quan An with a hint of excitement. No one knew what was on his mind at this moment.

'Huang Quan An… I wonder if he's the Title Temple's secret ace?' Duan Ling Tian's heart thumped. Following that, he told his master, Feng Qing Yang, about his speculation.

"It's unlikely," Feng Qing Yang replied instantly, "There are unconcealable signs after all. For example, the look in Xu Kong Hai's eyes is completely different from before when he looked at Huang Quan An. You can see he's trying to be friendly with Xu Kong Hai. If Huang Quan An was the hidden ace, Xu Kong Hai won't risk being openly friendly to Huang Quan An. In my opinion, the Title Temple's ace is another person…"

"Someone else?" Duan Ling Tian thought Feng Qing Yang's words made sense. He instinctively looked at the group of participants with the strength of a Five Star God of War.

Not counting himself and Ling Jue Yun, there were nine participants with strength comparable to a Five Star God of War. Out of these nine participants, Huang Quan An, Liu Xu Yan, and Yu Dong Fang were definitely not the Title Temple's secret ace. With this, there were six participants left: Zhong Gui Yu, Tang San Pao, Zhou Yong Qi, Ye Dong Li, Hong Yuan, and Sima Rui.

These six names flashed in his mind as he thought to himself, "Zhou Yong Qi, the last true disciple of Zhou Bing Wu, the Heavenly Emperor of the Equally Prosperous Heaven, isn't the Title Temple's secret ace as well…'

With this, there are five people left: Zhong Gui Yu, Tang San Pao, Ye Dong Li, Hong Yuan, and Sima Rui.

Since Hong Yuan and Sima Rui are from the Title Temple branches, it would not be a surprise if one of them were the secret ace. However, there was also a chance the secret ace was Zhong Gui Yu, Tang San Pao, or Ye Dong Li.

At the end of his thoughts, Duan Ling Tian asked Feng Qing Yang again, "Master, since you know Tang San Pao's master, do you think Tang San Pao is the Title Temple's secret ace?"

"Although I'm acquainted with his master, I only know he's a celestial who lives in seclusion… I'm not sure if his master has any relations with the Title Temple. The Title Temple has existed for such a long time. Therefore, there are many who retired and lived in seclusion. For this reason, we can't completely rule out the fact that his master is also a member of the Title Temple."

Duan Ling Tian could not figure out the identity of the Title Temple's secret ace. Through the process of elimination, he only narrowed it down to Zhong Gui Yu, Tang San Pao, Ye Dong Li, Hong Yuan, and Sima Rui.

Duan Ling Tian felt that it was unlikely that Ye Dong Li was the Title Temple's secret ace based on her match with Liu Xu Yan. During the match, it seemed like she had fought with all her might and even had to resort to bringing out her Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon; it was clear she was not hiding her strength.

With this thought in mind, Duan Ling Tian removed Ye Dong Li from his list of suspects that now only consisted of Zhong Gui Yu, Tang San Pao, Hong Yuan, and Sima Rui.

Although Tang San Pao could be considered a friend since they had gotten along quite well, Duan Ling Tian was still wary of Tang San Pao who had taken the initiative to approach him. Moreover, Tang San Pao's attitude did not match his strength at all.

After a moment, Duan Ling Tian shifted his gaze to Huang Quan An. 'If Huang Quan An challenged Zhong Gui Yu and manages to defeat Zhong Gui Yu then I'll be able to remove Zhong Gui Yu from the list of suspects as well…'

Coincidentally, at this time, Huang Quan An loudly announced, "I want to challenge Zhong Gui Yu who ranks first."

Duan Ling Tian's eyes lit up while the crowd went wild.

"Huang Quan An challenged Zhong Gui Yu!"

"I'm not surprised! With Huang Quan An's strength, those weaker than Six Star Gods of War aren't a match for him at all. He might as well challenge the first person on the ranking."

Most people were confident Huang Quan An would defeat Zhong Gui Yu. Only a few people thought otherwise. After all, what if Zhong Gui Yu was as strong as a Six Star God of War?

Duan Ling Tian belonged to the latter group. He did not dismiss the possibility that Zhong Gui Yu might be as strong as a Six Star God of War. If Zhong Gui Yu won the match, the likelihood of him being the Title Temple's secret ace would increase as well.

Swoosh!

Zhong Gui Yu arrived at the battle ring at lightning speed. He looked at Huang Quan An and solemnly said, "I should surrender, but I'd like to test my strength against your law of time's Instant Vicissitudes of Life."

As soon as these words fell, energy surged out from Zhong Gui Yu's body, and he shone dazzlingly bright like the sun.

"As you wished." Huang Quan An did not waste time and made a move.

Zhong Gui Yu who shone dazzlingly was frozen in just an instant. When he regained mobility, the law of time's Instant Vicissitudes of Life shot into his body before he could even react. As a result, similar to Yu Dong Fang, he began to age rapidly from a young man to an old man.

"Do you want to continue?" Huang Quan An asked with a smile on his face as he looked at the elderly Zhong Gui Yu.

The crowd gasped. Chills ran up their spines when they saw the smile on Huang Quan An's face. This young man who could freeze time and rapidly age his opponents was too terrifying.

"I lost. I couldn't block your law of time." A bitter smile appeared on Zhong Gui Yu's wrinkly face.

No one was surprised when Zhong Gui Yu surrendered.

'It's not him.' With this, Duan Ling Tian struck Zhong Gui Yu off his list of suspects. With this, only Tang San Pao, Hong Yuan, and Sima Rui were left.

At this moment, Xu Kong Hai's voice rang in the air. "Hong Yuan, the eighth participant, please step forward."
