Chapter 453 - 453 Bai Longtian
Everyone's eyes stared at the bald, yellow-robed young man from the Holy sect at the center of the arena with excited looks in their eyes.
This was going to be the final fight of the fourth test.
At that moment, the disciples sitting in the audience seats all turned their attention to the only person who had yet to step on the main stage.
It was a handsome young man dressed in white robes, with long black hair, deep blue eyes, and sword-like eyebrows. A snow-white sword was strapped on his waist, as his hand held a golden-colored token with the number '1000' on it.
This was the same young man who was staring at Shun Long with an intense gaze once his fight was finished, before nodding his head as a greeting.
Seeing this white-robed young man fly towards the arena with a serious look in his eyes, the look in Sheng Huang's, Zhong Fang's, and Xie Xingyi's eyes instantly changed, turning extremely serious as well.
In just a few moments, the white-robed young man had already appeared at the center of the arena, and staring at the bald, yellow-robed young man from the Holy sect who was standing in front of him, he actually smiled and cupped his hands before he said
''My name is Bai Longtian. I come from the 'Holy White city' of the Night star continent.''
The moment that they heard the white-robed young man introducing himself, Shun Long's and Liu Mei's expressions slightly changed as well.
At that moment, Shun Long didn't hold himself back from mumbling
''So this is the young white lord who is ranked 2nd in the House of Rankings in the Heaven's Dome city, Bai Longtian?''
Although his words sounded like a question, it was obvious that Shun Long was actually verifying his guess.
After all, this was the first time that he and Liu Mei were seeing Bai Longtian. As the young white lord and the person ranked 2nd in the House of Rankings, Bai Longtian's fame in the Night star continent wasn't inferior to even Sheng Huang's!
At the same time, Shun Long seemed to have suddenly realized why Bai Longtian had showed so much interest in him earlier.
As the person ranked 2nd in the entire Night star continent, it was natural that he would be stunned after seeing someone else coming from the Night star continent as well, who was able to pass the Holy sect's test with a cultivation at the peak of rank 1 of the Nascent Soul.
Turning her head to the side, Xie Xingyi stared at the surprised expression on Shun Long's face and asked in a curious voice
''Brother Long, is this the first time that you are actually seeing Bai Longtian?''
Of course, the reason why Xie Xingyi was surprised, was because she had seen Shun Long nod at Bai Longtian earlier, and she assumed that they must have already been acquainted with each other. She had also noticed that Sheng Huang seemed to have hated Shun Long for some reason, so she had ended up guessing that she was the only one who didn't know Shun Long and Liu Mei before entering the Holy sect's test.
However, based on Shun Long's reaction, it seemed that he had no idea that this person was Bai Longtian.
Nodding his head, Shun Long didn't hide anything as he explained directly
''Me and Mei'er spent the last 2 years training in the 'Ten Thousand beasts' mountain range' and the 'City of Sin' and didn't stay in the Heaven's Dome city for too long.''
Xie Xingyi nodded her head in enlightenment when she heard Shun Long's answer. Since he and Liu Mei didn't spend too much time in the Heaven's Dome city, it wasn't too surprising that he hadn't met Bai Longtian before.
After all, both Bai Longtian and Sheng Huang, and even the young lord of the Mercenaries' Association, Zhong Fang, only showed up in the House of Rankings when they had a fight to attend to. Otherwise, they would spend the rest of their time training, and preparing for the Holy sect's test.
As for the reason why Sheng Huang seemed to have hated Shun Long, Xie Xingyi didn't ask. Instead, a smile appeared on her face as she looked at the blue-robed young man who was sitting next to Liu Mei, before she then started to explain
''Brother Long, although Bai Longtian and Sheng Huang have never fought with each other before in public, it is said that Bai Longtian isn't inferior to him at all despite being ranked 2nd in the House of Ranking of the Heaven's Dome city.
Actually, it was just a few days before the Holy sect's test started that Bai Longtian defeated Zhong Fang and was ranked 2nd in the rankings!
At the same time, there are rumors that Bai Longtian has comprehended a very rare Dao, not inferior to his Dao of Light at all. And yet, during his fight with Zhong Fang, Bai Longtian only revealed his Dao of Light.''
Unlike Shun Long and Liu Mei, Xie Xingyi had spent a lot of time in the Heaven's Dome city.
As the person ranked 5th in the House of Rankings, even if she hadn't fought with Bai Longtian before, she already knew about the rumors going around regarding this genius, who wasn't inferior to Sheng Huang.
Shun Long nodded his head when he heard Xie Xingyi's explanation, as his eyes stared at the white-robed, handsome young man at the center of the arena with a curious look in his eyes.
Of course, to be able to be mentioned in the same breath as Sheng Huang, Bai Longtian had to have comprehended a Dao that could at least put up a fight against Sheng Huang's Dao of Destruction. After all, no matter what, Sheng Huang had actually managed to pass this fourth test effortlessly.
The bald, yellow-robed young man from the Holy sect opposite to Bai Longtian snorted when he heard the white-robed young man introduce himself before passing the test, and with a mocking look on his face he said
''Kid, you are too arrogant. Aren't you afraid that you will lose and become a laughingstock?''
