Urban God-level Youth

The second round is a chaotic battle of one hundred thousand participants, eliminating ninety thousand, leaving ten thousand to advance.

This is a melee, a fray without any rules to speak of; you just need to survive, relying on your own abilities.

This is the bloodiest round in the competition of the prodigies, and even top prodigies might be eliminated in this round.

In a chaotic battle of one hundred thousand people, perhaps many will join forces to defend or attack others, which is the most unpredictable situation.

However, there are rules in this fray; only one's own combat power can be used, without using any magical treasures, mounts, etc.

On the way back, Hou Changfeng and Zhou Wantong looked at Wei Xianyun beside Qin Hao, curiously asking, "Junior brother, who might this be?"

"Senior brother, this is my Dao companion, Wei Xianyun, the princess of the David Dynasty. Xianyun, these two are the deans of our academy and also my senior brothers, quickly greet the senior brothers." Qin Hao quickly said.

Wei Xianyun was startled for a moment, she didn't expect Qin Hao's seniority to be so high, actually calling the deans of Southern Continent Academy brother: "Greetings, senior brothers!"

"This girl is indeed pretty. Here, it's our first meeting, and as a senior brother, I can't be too shabby. Consider this talisman as a gift from me." Zhou Wantong took out an attack talisman and gave it to Wei Xianyun.

This was an attack talisman personally crafted by a Ninth-Order Supreme, with immense power.

As an elder, Hou Changfeng also gave Wei Xianyun a gift, which was a defensive talisman, all priceless treasures.

Hou Changfeng and Zhou Wantong did not ask why Qin Hao's ranking was low because they understood what Qin Hao was thinking and knew that the first round's ranking was of little consequence, at most just a reference.

If someone intentionally hides their strength, their ranking certainly won't be high.

Hou Changfeng knew that Qin Hao wasn't the only one hiding his strength, there must be many others doing the same because they didn't want to draw too much attention and be eliminated in the second round.

Back at the Heaven and Earth Academy's residence, Qin Hao brought Wei Xianyun back to his residence, where they shared a tender moment.

The next morning, Qin Hao and Wei Xianyun walked out of the palace planning to go for a stroll.

As they exited the palace, Qin Hao suddenly remembered something and said to Wei Xianyun, "Do you remember the Ancient Giant Clan tribe we met back then?"

"I remember, what's up?" Wei Xianyun's flawless face looked at him in confusion, not knowing why he would bring up this topic.

Qin Hao: "They're right here now!"

"Here?" Wei Xianyun's expression slightly froze.

Qin Hao smiled, "Come, I'll take you to see them. I came across them on the way to Ancient God City; they were captured by people from Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, and then I rescued them."

Saying this, he led Wei Xianyun to a nearby cluster of small palaces and upon entering saw the Ancient Giant Clan people practicing martial arts in front of a spacious palace.

They have cultivation techniques, but their level was too low, even lesser than the most basic human cultivation method, but fortunately, they have naturally strong bodies, capable of honing their physique daily to enhance their physical abilities.

Seeing Qin Hao and Wei Xianyun approach, Shuiyang from the Yu Ming Tribe hurried over, "Mr. Qin, miss."

"This is Wei Xianyun, my Dao companion. This is Shuiyang, the chief of the Yu Ming Tribe." Qin Hao introduced with a smile.

"Greetings, Miss Wei."

"Greetings, Chief Shuiyang."

Qin Hao looked at the people in front of the palace curiously asked, "What are they doing?"

Shuiyang explained, "Master, they are honing their bodies, unleashing their physical potential. Only in this way can their physical strength improve. Our Ancient Giant Clan does not have advanced cultivation methods, so we resort to this crude method."

Qin Hao smiled faintly, "Honing the body and unleashing physical potential, this crude method is indeed not bad. It not only enhances physical strength but also strengthens one's will. This can be continued long-term. As for the cultivation method, I'll handle it."

"Mr. Qin, Miss Wei, please come in!" He now remembered to invite the two inside.

As they walked towards the palace, Qin Hao looked at those who were honing their bodies; among them were teenagers and adults. Even the teenagers were taller than normal human adults, all tall and sturdy.

Upon entering the palace, Tian Hui soon came in, respectfully saying upon seeing Qin Hao, "Greetings, Sir and Madam!"

Qin Hao nodded slightly, "How have you been staying here? Are you comfortable?"

"It's quite nice here, but I'm worried every day." Tian Hui said honestly, with a bit of a naive look.

Shuiyang glared at him, hoping he'd be discreet.

Qin Hao said with a smile, "Indeed, although this place is good, it's not a home. Once the competition is over, I will have the Heaven and Earth Academy's dean take you away, and I'll arrange a place for you to settle."

Shuiyang nodded, "Thank you, sir. Just now, you mentioned resolving the issue with the cultivation method?"

Qin Hao smiled faintly, his Divine Sense entered the Merit Mall, where he began searching for the Ancient Witch Clan's cultivation techniques. He quickly found Witch Clan cultivation methods.

The Witch Clan's cultivation methods were divided into many types, roughly into twelve categories. Because, in ancient times, there were twelve powerful ancestor witches governing twelve strongest Witch Tribe clans, also ruling the entire continent, long before humans existed.

The cultivation methods of each tribe were different.

"Rushou Ancestor Witch Skill," "Ju Mang Ancestor Witch Skill," "Gonggong Ancestor Witch Skill"…

Altogether, there are twelve Ancestor Witch Cultivation Skills, each costing one million merit points to exchange.

Qin Hao directly exchanged for all twelve techniques, spending a total of twelve million merit points, which to him was just a drop in the bucket.

After exchanging, Qin Hao looked at Shuiyang and asked, "Chief Shuiyang, which Ancestor Witch's descendants is the Yu Ming Tribe from? Which cultivation method suits you? I have twelve ancient Ancestor Witch Cultivation Skills here for you to see."

Saying this, twelve radiant jade slips appeared in Qin Hao's hand: "Gonggong Ancestor Witch Skill," "Zhu Rong Ancestor Witch Skill," "Rushou Ancestor Witch Skill"…

"Holy crap!"

Even the always composed Chief Shuiyang couldn't help but blurt out seeing this scene.

He quickly came back to his senses, with bright eyes gazing dumbfoundedly at the twelve top-tier Ancestor Witch Cultivation Skills. Soon, his eyes turned red, and his body slightly trembled.

"Ancestral spirits, ancestral spirits..."

Shuiyang murmured, with two tear streaks appearing on his cheeks.

Wei Xianyun's heart was also overwhelmed with shock, thinking: Husband, what kind of monster are you? You have cultivation techniques of the twelve ancient Ancestor Witches?

Even if an ancient mighty being were reborn, they wouldn't have these techniques, would they?

Tian Hui was also stunned, staring straight at the cultivation methods in Qin Hao's hands, his breathing slightly hurried.

After a long while, Shuiyang calmed down, looked at Qin Hao, and said: "Sir, we are descendants of the Emperor Jiang Ancestor Witch, suitable for cultivating the Emperor Jiang Ancestor Witch Skill. Emperor Jiang Ancestor Witch is our ancestor."
