Nineteen times!
Zhang Yuan broke through his previous limits and reached an unprecedented state.

His height increased by more than a foot, his body became extremely strong, the blood in his body was boiling and his strength was surging, his skin was stretched to the extreme and had a copper color.

The dark Qilin patterns appeared silently.

The temperature inside the quiet room rose rapidly, and invisible energy surged back and forth in the closed room.

Even at this point, Zhang Yuan was still not satisfied.

“Bah!”

He suddenly shouted loudly, and all the joints in his body exploded again.

Twenty times the power!
The next moment, Zhang Yuan couldn’t help but groan, and blood oozed out of his mouth, nose, eyes and ears.

scoff!

The robe that tightly wrapped around his body suddenly broke into pieces, turning into countless fragments flying all over the sky.

It seemed as if heavy snow was falling in the quiet room.

Gray snow!

There was a gleam in Zhang Yuan’s eyes. He took a deep breath and removed the power of the black giant ant.

His body quickly returned to normal, and the turbulent blood in his body calmed down.

Zhang Yuan couldn’t help but let out a long sigh.

The first host of the God’s Nest, the black giant ant, has already been promoted to level five and can unleash up to thirty-two times the power.

But this is just paper data.

Because Zhang Yuan’s physique or constitution is simply unable to bear such a huge amount of power.

Since a warrior’s physical strength has an upper limit, he once thought that there was no need for the black giant ant to continue evolving.

Until he practiced the horizontal training method called “Liuhe Qilin Body”.

The strength of “Six-in-one Qilin Body” lies in its defense and recovery capabilities. However, after Zhang Yuan broke through the realm of minor success, he discovered that this technique was surprisingly compatible with the superpowers of the black giant ant.

“Six-in-one Qilin Body” can greatly increase the upper limit of power blessing.

This is why Zhang Yuan is willing to invest a lot of resources to improve this “氪金” technique.

And “Liuhe Qilin Body” did not disappoint him.

Now Zhang Yuan is able to increase the upper limit of the black giant ant’s power to twenty times.

Don’t underestimate the difference between twenty times and eighteen times. On the surface, the difference is only two times.

In fact, the most difficult thing is to go further.

At the critical moment, being one point stronger than your opponent can determine victory or defeat, life or death!

At this moment, Zhang Yuan was filled with joy.

He has 100% confidence in dealing with the upcoming competition for the position of Guardian outside the Wu Pavilion.

Time flies, and the selection day is here in a blink of an eye.

As soon as the sky was getting light, Zhang Yuan woke up from the deepest sleep.

After a simple wash, he changed into a new loose robe, left home and had a hearty breakfast outside.

Then rush to Qipan Peak.

This was not the first time that Zhang Yuan had climbed the Qipan Peak. The last time he came here was when he accompanied Su Jingyao to participate in the Nine Peaks Competition.

This time it can be considered as a revisit to an old place.

There is only one path to the top of the mountain, and on the way Zhang Yuan met many warriors who were participating in the selection like him.

After reaching the top, Zhang Yuan was slightly disappointed.

Because apart from the people participating in the battle and watching the battle, he did not see the airship that had left such a deep impression on him.

It is estimated that all of these sect’s important weapons are hidden in the secret vault.

Zhang Yuan chose a place to sit down and waited quietly.

As time went by, more and more warriors appeared on the Chessboard Peak, and the atmosphere gradually became tense.

At half past noon, a martial arts elder announced the official start of this year’s external guardian selection. Then the first round of duel draws were conducted!

“First round, first match, Sun Ze versus Zhang Nanxiao!”

“The first match of the second competition, Zhu Yuanjiang versus Sun Haofei!

“The first match of the third competition…”

The selection of the outer guards of the Wu Pavilion is just a trivial matter to Shang Jingtian.

Therefore, the process is very simple. The draw is done in public and the winner enters the next round of draw.

Until the three strongest ones are selected.

But there were hundreds of foreign warriors participating in this selection, so it was quite lively.

Zhang Yuan pricked up his ears and listened carefully like everyone else.

As a result, his name was not among the fifty candidates drawn in the first round.

Zhang Yuan was not disappointed and decided to watch the competition of others first.

There are stone platforms of various sizes densely distributed on the Qipan Peak. The largest of them can even accommodate the take-off and landing of airships. There is naturally no problem in marking out twenty or thirty of them as battle arenas.

Shang Jingtian sent out sect warriors, including several elders who taught the Dharma, to serve as arbitrators for the selection and competition.

Those warriors whose names were drawn in the first round stepped onto their respective battle arenas.

A fierce battle is about to break out.

“Ouch!”

At this moment, a little Taoist boy ran hurriedly past Zhang Yuan and stumbled and was about to fall.

Zhang Yuan didn’t hesitate at all and immediately reached out to support him to prevent him from falling and getting a bloody head.

“Thank you, senior brother!”

After the reckless little Taoist boy stood firm, he bowed to Zhang Yuan with a red face.

“You are welcome.”

Zhang Yuan smiled and said, “Be careful.”

The little Taoist nodded, spread his legs and disappeared without a trace.

Since everyone’s attention was focused on the various battle arenas, this unexpected little episode did not attract anyone’s attention.

Zhang Yuan sat down again calmly and looked around.

After making sure that no one was peeping, he quietly unfolded a piece of paper in his hand.

And this note was secretly passed to Zhang Yuan by the little Taoist boy when he was supporting him!
There were only six words written on the note.

Be careful, Yang family, sixth level!
Zhang Yuan’s mind raced and he understood instantly.

This was someone reminding Zhang Yuan that the Yang family would send a sixth-level strongman to deal with him.

During this external protector selection!
There are hundreds of foreign warriors practicing in Shangjingtian Martial Arts Pavilion, most of whom are at the fourth and fifth levels, but there are also a very small number of sixth-level warriors.

In fact, there are a few third-order ones, but they are not worth mentioning.

As for those sixth-level experts, they basically practice hard in their own places and usually do not participate in the affairs of the Martial Pavilion.

For example, the last time Xiao Yan organized a warrior alliance to conquer Mo Yuan Black Dragon Pond, among the many foreign warriors who participated, it was said that there was only one who was at the sixth level, otherwise they would not have been defeated so badly.

It was thanks to that sixth-level strongman that Xiao Yan was able to return to Shang Jingtian safely.

Zhang Yuan believed that Xiao Yan must have paid a high price for this.

A sixth-order strongman has the potential to enter the divine realm. He attaches great importance to his own foundation and will not take risks easily.

Now, in order to deal with Zhang Yuan, the Yang family actually hired a sixth-level person?

It’s actually normal!

Every day Zhang Yuan was at leisure in the Wu Pavilion, the Yang family’s reputation would be reduced. For a noble family, this was absolutely an unbearable situation.

Only by killing Zhang Yuan completely can they restore their lost face!

Zhang Yuan soon discovered that the power of the Yang family was even stronger than he had expected. (End of this chapter)
