Rebirth as a Willow Tree, building the strongest tribe in all of eternity-Chapter 335 - 261: Where Are They From!!!_1

Chapter 335: Chapter 261: Where Are They From!!!_1

“So, you all think that our tribe’s pride isn’t worthy of the title ‘Genius’, do you consider yourselves as geniuses?! In all history, only the mediocre would belittle others, and see not the forest for the trees…”

The elder surged with a powerful aura, furious, and spoke sharply. His powerful aura flooded over everything, directly zeroing in on Lin Hai and the others.

His tribe, after all, had a certain probability of evolving into True Dragons in the future. They had never felt so humiliated, so blatantly looked down upon by others.

Especially…

Looking at those people’s clothes, they clearly didn’t know how to dress properly — complete ruffians.

But even though the elder of the Drake Clan held those thoughts, he didn’t actually act on them. These people, although ordinary in appearance, possessed extraordinary temperament. Each one of them appeared calm and collected, exuding confidence.

Only by having seen and handled significant situations repeatedly can one cultivate such a demeanor.

The most critical point was that even when the elder’s aura targeted them, they didn’t even change their expression—as if they didn’t notice it at all.

“Godfire Realm!”

The crowd gasped in surprise, overawed by the elder’s powerful aura.

Even in the Upper Realm, everyone had to take cultivation step by step, following an orderly progression. Cultivators at the Godfire Realm, although not rare, were considered masters—at least they were considered leaders among the present crowd.

“If you look down upon my Qing Yu, you can try it out for yourself, to see how difficult it is to leave your name on this stele!”

The girl in the green dress said, her bright eyes welling with tears.

The Upper World Three Thousand Continents, divided into Ten Lands, were virtually endless with countless populations. This stele ranked all the geniuses from these areas since antiquity. To leave one’s name on it, one had to be a standout among geniuses.

She worked so hard, yet her efforts were dismissed by some stranger her age, which frustrated her.

“I’m just a straightforward person with a loud voice, I didn’t mean to offend you!” Lin Hai waved his hand. He was generally good-tempered, and even he was aware that he had indeed misspoken.

“I don’t care! You looked down upon my talent, didn’t you?! You try it then. If you surpass me, we can let bygones be bygones. But if you don’t, you have to shout three times that you’re a dog, and that you’ve overlooked the prodigy in front of you. Everyone present must hear it!”

Qing Yu challenged him, her voice as crisp as a warbler’s song.

“Fine, I’ll give it a shot!” Lin Hai smirked, feeling that such punishment was embarrassing.

Most importantly, he was highly confident of his own talent.

His father once told him that he had survived a catastrophe by a stroke of luck. Lord Willow God had saved him and granted him an incredible chance, blessing him with Immortal Talent that surpassed everyone else’s.

In the young man’s view, the chance Lord Willow God offered was certainly unparalleled in the world.

He strode right in front of the stele.

The stele was densely inscribed with names. All of them ranked the most dazzling prodigies from the ten domains throughout the ages.

Even the Immortal Supreme Qin Chang Sheng didn’t rank first. The first place was a name called Qin Hao. But it was not the only one; there were several nicknames standing together in first place, not necessarily all real names.

“Why does this name sound familiar?”

Lin Hai frowned. During his time in the Lower Realm, he seemed to have heard the name Qin Hao before. It sounded like… it was the younger brother of the boy standing next to him…

He turned his head abruptly and looked at Little Dot. Although he didn’t say anything, his eyes expressed everything.

Little Rock understood and nodded.

“What’s there to hesitate about? If you want to test your talent, then test your talent. If you want to test your potential, then test your potential. If you want to measure your combat power, then measure your combat power. What do the others do matter?”

Qing Yu retorted, still a little indignant. She was only in her teens and still growing. Therefore, she only tested her talent just now, which was already quite impressive.

“What’s the rush?” said Lin Hai, having already decided to take the test, he was sure he wouldn’t back out so suddenly.

“First, let’s test the combat power!”

Lin Hai decided in his heart.

Wine God once told him that his path of cultivation was different from most people. Therefore, he couldn’t be boxed into the conventional realms, couldn’t practice the Treasured Techniques of attack, nor did he need to condense a Cave Heaven.

Even though he skipped many steps, because of this, the teenager wasn’t particularly confident in his combat power. He only felt slightly stronger.

That’s why Lin Hai decided to start from here.

Even if his name doesn’t make it to the stele, it won’t matter, as there are still the talent and potential tests left. Surely, he would excel in one of them.

His eyes were closed tightly, all of his power directed towards his hands. Then, with a loud yell, he directed a vicious punch towards the stele.

Onlookers widened their eyes, about to tell him that this was not the proper way to test combat power when a rumbling noise emitted from the stele before they could speak.

The next moment, in the void, the Flowers of the Taoist blossomed into stunningly splendid flares of light, making it quite dazzling and difficult for people to keep their eyes open.

“This…how is this possible?”

The spectators were stunned, with many even showing dumbfounded looks while others sported frustrated expressions.

Despite testing in the wrong manner, he still triggered the resonance of the stone monument. These days, talent could save you anywhere.

Qing Yu and the elder from the Drake Clan were equally shocked.

Did…did he just make his mark on the stele?!

While everyone was still processing, Lin Hai continued his testing for talent and potential.

“Boom!”

“Boom!”

In an instant.

The scene plunged into absolute madness.

In the void, one after another, the Flowers of the Taoist blossomed one after the other, their music muted. For a moment, it completely covered the space above the onlookers’ heads, filling their vision with stunning brilliance!

“…” Qing Yu.

“…” The crowd.

Another burst of light emerged, and Lin Hai swiftly carved his name onto the stele.

“Buzz…”

Afterward, the two characters forming Lin Hai shot up like a rocket, surpassing one outstanding genius after another at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In the end.

Second place in combat power ranking.

First place in talent ranking.

First place in potential ranking.

Apart from combat power, he surpassed both Qin Hao and several others who were tied for first place in the other two categories, becoming the true first in both, unmatched in each aspect.

As for combat power, he hadn’t taken first place, but it was incredibly high nonetheless.

That wasn’t all. Lin Hai carved an image of himself onto the stele, feeling that it would leave a deeper impression.

However, this drawing just happened to appear above the names of Qin Hao and Qin Chang Sheng. It was as if he was sitting on their heads, suppressing them beneath him, causing great discomfort.

There were people from the Immortal Mountain around.

This sight made them extremely angry.

Though their faces showed shock, they couldn’t help but curse, feeling that this rascal was too unpredictable, he could have chosen anywhere else, but had to go over the names of their clan’s top genius and venerable ancestor. With both these two suppressed, how would they save face if this got out?!

Little Dot, who was standing to the side was also left dumbstruck.

He was just thinking about doing that, but before he could, someone else had already beaten him to it.
