You don't want your secret to be revealed by others, right?

The cultivators below watching the fight were also somewhat astonished.

"All the highest difficulty? This prince is a bit too confident."

"Facing the mutant beast that's most restrained and in a scene most advantageous to the beast, the difficulty is almost close to winning five consecutive battles in the Third Layer."

"It seems this prince indeed has the strength to win five consecutive battles in the Third Layer."

"The rewards for the highest difficulty are extremely high. If he wins, that's several hundred command arrows at once."

"Not just that. Five consecutive wins plus the highest difficulty in the Heavenly Ascension Test theoretically includes an extra two thousand command arrow reward."

"If he wins a few more times in the Third Layer, couldn't he gather ten thousand command arrows and open a top-grade treasure box?"

Meanwhile, the battle within the scroll of ten thousand miles of rivers and mountains above began.

But... the moment the huge Azure-Winged Vulture appeared before Lin Yue, a flash of blade light, and the vulture's head had already severed and fallen.

It was still an instant kill.

"This... still in one move?"

"He can kill with one move even at the highest difficulty?"

"Doesn't that mean sweeping the five consecutive wins in the Third Layer is very easy?"

"Could he possibly be aiming for the Fourth Layer..."

"Is the prince... that powerful?"

The cultivators couldn't help but feel a little shocked.

As Lin Yue expected, he indeed received the extra two thousand command arrow reward.

Immediately after, Lin Yue didn't waste any time and directly chose to enter the Third Layer of Tianxia Building.

As for the rewards from the Second Layer, he wasn't too concerned about them. According to his plan, as long as he completed most of the rewards in the Third and Fourth Layers, he would be able to amass one hundred and eighty thousand command arrows.

These few hundred to a thousand hidden rewards didn't affect anything.

Just as he was about to enter the Third Layer, Lin Yue suddenly heard an ethereal voice:

"Lin Yue, would you like to ascend to the Divine List? Considering you already have the title 'Mountain-Cleaving Yama' to ascend the Divine List, you may choose any one title to go on the Divine List."

"I'm not willing," Lin Yue naturally wouldn't choose to go on the Divine List.

Once he replaced 'Mountain-Cleaving Yama', even a fool could tell he was the Mountain-Cleaving Yama.

But if he chose not to go on the Divine List, at least it could be explained as not wanting to show off.

Even if many people could associate him with Mountain-Cleaving Yama, it was useless without substantial evidence. What's the point of mere suspicion?

...

After entering the Third Layer of Tianxia Building, Lin Yue found that there were actually quite a few people in the Third Layer.

Clearly, they were waiting for him in advance.

Among them, about twenty were strong cultivators from the Divine List, and around thirty were Great Cultivators.

Great Cultivators could easily reach the five consecutive wins in the Third Layer of Tianxia Building by utilizing the Heaven and Earth Law. With some more practice, they could challenge the Fourth Layer.

Thus, most Great Cultivators were concentrated in the Fourth Layer of Tianxia Building. That's where the normal Great Cultivators were found.

The ones in the Third Layer were either newly advanced or weaker ones not proficient in combat, naturally fewer in number.

And the strong cultivators on the Divine List, they could be considered invincible below the Great Cultivators, much fewer in number.

"Seventeenth Prince."

A Great Cultivator took the initiative to salute Lin Yue, respectfully saying, "It seems Your Highness is planning to challenge the Fourth Layer of Tianxia Building today?"

"Something like that," Lin Yue nodded slightly, recognizing the person as a Centurion from Dawn Platform.

The strong cultivators from the Divine List also looked at Lin Yue, their eyes filled with complex emotions.

Each of them had cultivated for dozens of years, a hundred years, or even more, and this prince had, at most, only cultivated for six years.

He was challenging the Fourth Layer of Tianxia Building in just six years?

That was almost too monstrously talented.

Even among the princes, this was remarkable.

"Begin."

Lin Yue didn't waste time and walked straight to the faceless stone sculpture on the Third Layer, throwing out a command arrow.

The low voice of the faceless stone sculpture echoed through Tianxia Building:

"Lin Yue, ten victories undefeated; Tianyuan Six Skills, one hundred fifty-eight wins two hundred seventy-one losses.

"After thirty breaths, the debate will begin, with the distinction between life and death, at... the Sunrise Sea."

Immediately, Lin Yue and another Great Cultivator were absorbed into the scroll of ten thousand miles of rivers and mountains, appearing above a great sea facing the sunrise.

"Hm?"

Lin Yue then realized that his first opponent in the Third Layer was someone he had had some trouble with before.

A middle-aged man-looking Great Cultivator.

The first time Lin Yue came to Jingzhou, it was this man who had intercepted him halfway, relying on the authority of the Qingtian Bureau, claiming he wanted to investigate the theft of treasure and ordered them to stop their boat.

What was his name again?

Seemed like... Cai Jue?

"Didn't expect it to be you, this old dog, Chief Cai."

Lin Yue stood floating in the air, casually sizing up Cai Jue, who was suspended opposite him, and spoke indifferently, "Heard that just five years ago you had a fluke breakthrough, always at the bottom among Great Cultivators, how come five years have passed, and you've made no progress?"

Cai Jue's face turned ugly, his eyes filled with humiliation.

But what could he do if a prince insulted him?

Moreover, he knew he was no match for this prince, even with the ability to utilize Heaven and Earth Law within Tianxia Building, let alone in reality.

In the real world, he couldn't use Heaven and Earth Law, only having the strength of the low-ranked Second Layer!

"Now at least I can use Heaven and Earth Law, I should be able to withstand one move..."

As this thought flashed through Cai Jue's mind, he suddenly realized that Lin Yue had disappeared from sight.

Then, he felt his head flying up, blood spurting wildly from his headless body.

This... how did I die?

Cai Jue was confused, feeling as if he was dreaming. The weak prince who had just arrived in Jingzhou six years ago with only the Five Elements Heavenly Barrier's meager strength was now able to instant kill him, and he couldn't even react in time...

The disparity was just too huge...
