I Am Overlord

Chapter 1340: The Four Champions

The surrounding onlookers stared at the three headless corpses in stunned silence. They all knew that Xiang Shaoyun was strong despite his low cultivation level, but only when he made a move did they realize just how strong he was. Those were three peak Sovereigns he had faced, but he had killed them as easily as taking a stroll in the park.

Xiang Keren, Xiang Feidian, and Xiang Chenxi looked at Xiang Shaoyun with reverence. Their little ancestor was too incredible.

"The Western Desert's Devil Hunting Expedition champion is indeed worthy of his fame."

"He's only a fourth-stage Soul Foundation Realm cultivator. How is this fair?"

"I refuse to believe he's only a fourth-stage Sovereign. He is definitely using some saint-grade items to hide his cultivation. Yes, that must be the case!"

"A good show is about to unfold. Of the four champions, who is stronger? I believe everyone is interested in having that question answered. I wonder if the four champions will clash against each other."

"None of that matters. After entering the Saintforce Realm, nothing matters more than becoming a Saint."

...

Not far away, Di Mie's face twitched when he saw the deaths of Xiang Nantian and company. The followers he had gathered with much difficulty had been killed so easily. He was having a hard time accepting their deaths.

"Trash!" Di Mie cursed.

"Don't worry, prince. They are mere chess pieces. Their deaths don't matter. We'll let that kid stay arrogant for a bit. When his prestige reaches the peak, I'll make him fall to the bottom, turning him into a stray dog," said Di Lin ruthlessly.

"I hope so. You better not disappoint me," said Di Mie coldly.

After dealing with Xiang Nantian's group, Xiang Shaoyun looked for a place to sit down and rest. He wouldn't provoke anyone, but he wouldn't mind killing those who dared to provoke him to set an example.

"Sister, come with me. It's not proper for you to stay here," said Yu Ziyang, appearing out of nowhere.

"Stop trying. Nobody can change my mind," said Yu Caidie coldly.

"Looks like my identity as your big brother is worthless," said Yu Ziyang with a sigh. He glared at Xiang Shaoyun and said, "Xiang Shaoyun, remember to take good care of my sister if you don't want to receive a beating from me!"

Xiang Shaoyun blanked out slightly before he smiled and said, "Don't worry. She's my woman. I'll naturally treat her well."

"That better be the case," said Yu Ziyang before returning to the Yu Clan's group.

For several days, nobody else came looking for trouble. More and more people arrived at the gathering place, including many famous geniuses. Of all the people present, the four Devil Hunting Expedition champions attracted the most attention.

The Eastern Pass's Devil Hunting Expedition champion was Dongfang Wudi, someone who had not suffered a single defeat in his entire life. He was the most talented cultivator to have emerged from the Dongfang Clan in the last 10,000 years. The four academies once considered making an exception to recruit him before their seasonal recruitment session.

However, Dongfang Wudi rejected their offer and resolutely traveled the world alone. He entered numerous uninhabited regions and faced numerous dangers, tempering himself with his life on the line.

The Southern Wasteland's Devil Hunting Expedition champion was Ru Nan, the Southern Heavenly Society's chief disciple. She was known as a female tyrant. Due to her masculine appearance, she was named Ru Nan, which meant "like a man." She was tall, sturdy, and strong. Of course, her pair of chests were massive as well. Like the Southern Heavenly Society she came from, she was aloof and arrogant, overlooking the world with a domineering bearing that could put all men to shame.

She once declared that she would give her body to any man who could defeat her with the same cultivation level. Half of the Southern Heavenly Society's wealth would also be offered as the dowry, which was a declaration that spread her name throughout the world.

The Southern Heavenly Society was a superpower. Half its wealth was basically half its empire. Nobody could resist such a temptation. Alas, all 188 men who had challenged Ru Nan thus far had been defeated. Nobody could defeat the female tyrant.

The Northern Border's Devil Hunting Expedition champion was Beiming Tianpeng, the holy son of the Northern Border's number one organization, the White Lotus Sect.

At Beiming Tianpeng's birth, a celestial phenomenon appeared, and a powerful kunpeng came forward to guard him when he was being born. He was thus named Tianpeng, which meant celestial peng, with the hopes that he would be able to freely soar the skies and overlook the world like the mighty kunpeng.

Beiming Tianpeng did not disappoint. After becoming the White Lotus Sect master's last disciple, he began his rise to power. At 40 years old, he reached ninth-stage Soul Foundation Realm. Although he had yet to reach the peak of the realm, he had a combat strength that even Saints feared. It was worth noting that he was also exceptionally beautiful, to the point even women would feel inferior before him.

As for the Western Desert's Devil Hunting Expedition champion Xiang Shaoyun, his fame was no less than the other three. Although his past accomplishments were largely unknown, his feat of cultivating nine different powers and his victory over Dugu Qiubai, the owner of a Primal Chaos Physique, were enough to earn him the respect of many.

Of course, the four champions weren't the only known names that had gathered here. A lot of names that nobody could afford to overlook had appeared as well. For example, the True Martial Academy's Dugu Qiubai. With his Primal Chaos Physique, as long as he did not die prematurely, he was fated to grow into one of the main characters of the world.

There was a certain arrow cultivator from the Southern Wasteland, a self-proclaimed descendant of Houyi, the mythological archer. He was known as Hou Yi, capable of defying logic and releasing seven arrows at the same time. Equipped with the Soulchasing Arrows, each arrow he unleashed was unavoidable.

There was the Northern Border's Ximen Xue, the unrivaled sword who had won 100 consecutive victories. With his sword, he aimed for the peak. Not even Saints could suppress his emotionless sword dao.

There was the Darkdevil Sect's dark child, Mo Lie, who came from the same organization as Devil Concubine. He had long gained the ability to break through into the Saint Realm. However, he had been suppressing himself to build a strong foundation. Few in the Sovereign Realm could be a match for him. A self-proclaimed number one expert under the Saint Realm, he was extremely arrogant.

The Western Desert's Di Mie was also one of the more well-known names that had gathered here. Unfortunately, he had only recently left seclusion, so his fame was slightly lower compared to the other geniuses. However, someone once witnessed him easily reduce a Saint into ashes.

Apart from these people, there were still some other geniuses worth paying attention to. None of them could be underestimated.

Xiang Shaoyun never cared much for those people. However, Xiang Feidian was a busybody who had befriended a bunch of people. From his new friends, he had obtained all this information. He hid nothing and told Xiang Shaoyun everything. Thus, Xiang Shaoyun was able to know all this without even trying.

While waiting, Xiang Shaoyun saw Dong Ziwan once again.
