The Celestial Court wins the third round of the Points Tournament, earning massive rewards. Wang Teng is recognized as a Star Lord Candidate. The tournament's difficulty and rewards are significantly increased due to multiple Heaven-Suppressing Forces and the presence of a Heaven-defier, culminating in a 100% reward boost. The Celestial Court's rewards are further doubled after Wang Teng uses a Doubling Divine Talisman, leading to immense gains in combat power and valuable pills for disciples, generals, and Wang Teng himself. The chapter concludes with the Celestial Court solidifying its position as the absolute overlord of the Fertile Star Realm.

In this instant, upon the square of the Ten Thousand Sword Race, a spectacle unfolded.

Wang Teng found himself submerged within a vibrant purple-golden light pillar!

Di Jiang, on the other hand, was enshrouded by a brilliant golden light pillar!

Their latent power surged dramatically, climbing at an astonishing rate!

After a brief interlude, the golden light pillar gradually faded away.

In that fleeting moment, Di Jiang's combat power experienced an augmentation of 120 million, propelling him to 720 million, thus achieving the apex of the Void God Realm.

This development filled the young prodigy with immense joy!

Buzz~!

A clear resonance echoed through the heavens and earth!

The purple-golden light pillar that had enveloped Wang Teng also dissipated.

Wang Teng slowly opened his eyes, his gaze sweeping around with elation.

Within a single moment, he had accrued an additional 800 million in combat power, elevating his overall might to a staggering 10.4 billion!

When factoring in the Power of Harmonization and the might of his Divine Artifact, his strength would be even more formidable.

Naturally, the Power of Sacrifice also contributed significantly.

The more Wang Teng contemplated these gains, the more exhilarated he became!

Buzz~! Buzz~! Buzz~!

Before his jubilation could fully settle, streaks of dazzling white light pierced the atmosphere, torrenting into his very being...

[Hint: Member Zhu Yilong's combat power has surpassed 20 million, you have received a feedback of 100,000 combat power!]

[Hint: Member Hai Qing's combat power has surpassed 20 million, you have received a feedback of 100,000 combat power!]

...

A smile graced Wang Teng's lips.

The disciples of the Celestial Court had all seen their combat power increase by 20 million, initiating a transfer of combat power back to him.

In mere moments, Wang Teng was completely bathed in these cascading white lights.

His combat power surged with unrestrained momentum.

This feedback contributed an additional 300 million combat power to his reserves.

Consequently, his comprehensive combat power ascended to 10.7 billion.

Boom~! Rumble~! Rumble~!

At this critical juncture, the heavens roared, and two pillars of white light descended from above.

One illuminated the area before Di Jiang.

The other fell precisely before Wang Teng.

These were the spoils of battle: various Divine Pills, bestowed as rewards.

Wang Teng tilted his head slightly, his eyes gleaming with delight as he observed the Divine Pills descending slowly.

A grand total of 36 Lower-Grade Divine-tier Elixirs lay before him!

Their value was immeasurable!

In previous times, he would have toiled endlessly to acquire even a single Lower-Grade Divine-tier elixir.

Now, thirty-six had been obtained in an instant!

Even more auspiciously, twelve of these were Divine King Soul Pills, renowned for their ability to bolster the strength of the soul body.

His most fervent aspiration at this moment was to elevate his soul body's might to the level of the Main God Realm.

Within moments, all thirty-six Divine Pills rested before Wang Teng.

With a sense of deep contentment, he gathered them.

Boom~! Rumble~! Rumble~!

Shortly thereafter, a third column of light descended in front of him.

Four Holy Land Passage Orders and one Star Lord Challenge Order accompanied the light pillar, settling gracefully.

Wang Teng looked up, his eyes burning with fervent anticipation.

Taichu Sacred Land Pass!

With the addition of these four, he now possessed a total of seven.

It was important to note that access to opportunities on the second floor of the Holy Land had previously been exclusive to Star Lord candidates.

Now, holding seven such passes, he could bring his entire contingent of Wanderers along.

This profound realization caused his gaze to fix upon the Star Lord Challenge Order, his eyes igniting with even greater intensity.

This was his entry token for the perilous Star Lord Trial.

It represented, unequivocally, a colossal opportunity.

In mere moments, these five tokens were within his reach.

Wang Teng accepted the tokens with palpable joy.

While Wang Teng was engrossed in securing his rewards, a separate, clandestine series of events was unfolding elsewhere within the Fertile Star Realm.

The scene shifted to a secluded valley.

Above the valley, an elder, his visage etched with wrinkles and his hair a cascade of white, cast his gaze towards the direction of the Suspended Island.

He had clearly witnessed the descent of over ten thousand reward light pillars from the Great World earlier; the spectacle was vividly etched in his mind.

In that moment, alongside a pang of envy, a curious expression flickered across his countenance.

Standing beside the elder was a tall, gaunt middle-aged man.

This individual was You’er, the clan leader of the You Shen Divine Race, a significant Hunter Force.

The white-haired elder was identified as You Shen Ancestor, an cultivator in the early stages of the Celestial Human realm.

The You Shen Divine Race, though a formidable Hunter Force, maintained an exceptionally low profile.

Despite possessing the capabilities to ascend and establish themselves as a Mysterious Force, they deliberately chose to preserve their identity as a Hunter Force, operating discreetly.

This peculiar adherence to their status often left the disciples of the You Shen Divine Race perplexed.

However, these were direct commands from the You Shen Ancestor, which they dared not disobey.

Currently, You’er gazed towards the Suspended Island, his heart filled with a complex mixture of emotions.

"Ancestor, this Celestial Court wields immense power! All their members received rewards equivalent to 20 million combat power! This suggests that the average strength of a Celestial Court member is akin to that of a Celestial Human, truly formidable!"

You Shen Ancestor mused for a moment before replying, "This Wang Teng is no ordinary individual! He has conquered the ten major divisions, seizing territories belonging to all the Mysterious Forces. Even the lands of the Guang Yin Race and the Six Paths Mausoleum fell under his dominion."

"So, Ancestor Guang Yin and Ancestor Liu Dao have both met their end, with special circumstances preventing the full disclosure to the entire Star Realm."

You’er exclaimed in shock, "Wang Teng’s combat strength has reached the peak of the True God Realm?! And with the recent surge of rewards, I fear he is approaching the very limits of True God Realm power! Can a challenger truly be this formidable?"

Ancestor You Shen smiled faintly, "While that young man might possess power close to the True God Realm's limit, his actual realm is likely still within the Void God Realm!"

"This is because the Fertile Star Realm only hosts Celestial Martial Trials, which permit ascension only to the Void God Realm. To reach the True God Realm, one must undergo trials at the Star Domain Headquarters."

"That Wang Teng, being a challenger, has likely not yet visited the Star Domain Headquarters."

Ancestor You Shen's voice held a distinct lack of respect for Wang Teng, tinged with a noticeable degree of hostility.

You’er took a steadying breath, "The Ancestor's analysis is perfectly clear! To possess power so close to the True God Realm limit while still being in the Void God Realm is truly astonishing!"

At this moment, You’er was filled with awe.

"Indeed! Such an individual is undoubtedly a genius on the level of a demon!"

Ancestor You Shen let out a deep sigh.

However, a sneer soon played on his lips, "Still, no matter how powerful Wang Teng becomes, his demise is imminent! I have anticipated this day for a very long time!"
