Ninth In the World

“Moshuang is fine. Hurry up and go collect your qualification jade card so you can enter the Small Central Planet,” said Xian Ze hurriedly.

Di Jiu was both Huan Mingzi’s and Xian Ze’s chosen one. The Small Central Planet was the best place for improving one’s strength. As long as Di Jiu didn’t fall after entering, he would definitely advance by leaps and bounds.

Huan Mingzi also signaled at Di Jiu to hurry up and collect the jade card.

Thus, Di Jiu ended up on the circular platform. He was now quite well-known in the Small Central World, so a number of cultivators came over to greet him the moment he walked up to the stage.

Only the best Itinerant Cultivators could go there to get a jade card.

“Di Jiu—132 points…” The cultivator in charge of giving out the qualification jade cards looked up at Di Jiu after seeing his score and asked, “How many qualification jade cards do you need?”

Di Jiu bowed and replied, “I need 13.”

His score from the Five Continent Dao Pagoda could either be used in exchange for qualification jade cards or to strike a deal with the sects. Now that the Small Central Planet was about to open, it was obviously better to exchange his score for qualification jade cards.

When they saw Di Jiu collect 13 qualification jade cards for entering the Small Central Planet, many cultivators turned red with envy. Di Jiu alone could get 13 cards, when they couldn’t get any. It was a pity that they couldn’t snatch any. Even the True Form cultivators couldn’t.

When Fu Che saw that Di Jiu had a pile of jade cards in his hands, he didn’t reject his offer again. He knew that this was an excellent chance for the three of them. If they didn’t enter the Small Central Planet, they might get stuck in the Essence Soul Realm for the rest of their lives or at best attain the Void Spirit Realm. Once they entered the Small Central Planet, they would stand a great chance of advancing to another tier.

As soon as Fu Che and the other two put away the jade cards, Di Jiu handed the rest of the jade cards to Geng Ji and the others. Then, he asked, “What happened to Moshuang?”

Wei Shanshan had been worried about Jing Moshuang. Actually, only she and Jing Moshuang had been disciples of the Galaxy Sect. Jing Moshuang had planned on rebuilding the Galaxy Sect and coming to the Small Central World to set up a sect. Thus, when Di Jiu asked about Jing Moshuang, she quickly told him that Han Qingyi had taken her away.

Han Qingyi?

Di Jiu knew this woman. Although she was very powerful, the people supporting her were even more powerful. Why had Han Qingyi chosen Jing Moshuang as her cultivation companion? Jing Moshuang’s qualifications weren’t that good.

However, Di Jiu had experienced many things before. When he tweaked his way of thinking, he instantly understood Han Qingyi’s motive. Jing Moshuang had most likely been dragged into this because of him—this was about the Plane Split Talisman.

Han Qingyi, who had been very enthusiastic about the Plane Split Talisman, had wanted the ones he had. However, he had already used up both Plane Split Talismans.

“Don’t worry, Junior Sister Shanshan. Once I get out of the Small Central Planet, I will join the True Province Genius Tournament and bring back Moshuang by hook or by crook. I totally agree that the Galaxy Sect should be rebuilt on the Small Central World. I will give you my assistance.” Di Jiu gave Wei Shanshan a definite answer.

Back on the Polar Night Continent, Di Jiu had initially not been interested in rebuilding the Galaxy Sect. Firstly, he knew that the Galaxy Sect wouldn’t thrive on the Polar Night Continent. Secondly, he didn’t have that much time. However, if Jing Moshuang was willing to rebuild the Galaxy Sect, he would naturally help out.

“You wish to enter the True Province Genius Tournament?” asked Xian Ze, who had been wanting to speak to Di Jiu in private. Upon hearing that Di Jiu would join the True Province Genius Tournament, he got so agitated that his hands started trembling a little. He had gone there to find Di Jiu precisely because he wanted to ask him to take part in the True Province Genius Tournament.

“Yes. I indeed want to join the True Province Genius Tournament,” replied Di Jiu respectfully.

Xian Ze rubbed his hands. He got more and more excited as he said, “I came to find you precisely for this…”

Di Jiu raised his hands and set up a restriction. “Don’t tell me that you want to go to the Immortal World too?”

“Yes, yes…” said Xian Ze immediately. “I know that this is too much to ask, but I have to go to the Immortal World. You know how chaotic the Night Star Continent is now. I’m most grateful that you remerged the Polar Night Continent and the Half-Screen Continent, which had been split from the Night Star Continent. However, this reunion wasn’t supported by the Law, so it is like water without a source or a tree without roots.”

“In the past, the Night Star Continent used to be a famous existence among the five star continents. Now, it can’t even produce a Pioneer Sea Realm cultivator, which is tragic. If this goes on, the Night Star Continent will disappear completely in the vast universe. No cultivators on the Night Star Continent can enter the Immortal World anymore. I’m hoping to be the person to convey this message and ask experts to come and repair the Night Star Continent.”

By the time Di Jiu finished listening to Xian Ze, he was overcome with emotion. He deeply respected Xian Ze. Xian Ze could have left the Polar Night Continent long ago, yet he had stayed to maintain the order.

His master, Qian Fenghua, had stayed back on the Night Star Continent to repair it because he had cracked it by accident. However, things were different for Xian Ze. Xian Ze had wholeheartedly wanted to repair the Night Star Continent because he didn’t want it to disappear into nothingness.

“Sir, if I can get a good ranking in the True Province Genius Tournament and there are two positions, I will definitely leave one open for you.” Di Jiu bowed respectfully. He had also promised to keep a position for Huan Mingzi.

“Good, good, good…” repeated Xian Ze continuously, feeling very agitated.

Boom! A loud sound startled everybody on the square. Suddenly, a colorful pathway shot down from the Small Central Planet like a beam of light. Actually, it was a beam of light.

“The Small World Planet is open!” As excited voices rang out, the cultivators who could enter the Small World Planet realized that their opportunity had come.
