"Wan Lei? Is he Wan Lei?"

"Rumor has it that Wan Lei is only fifteen years old. He does look young, so it should be him."

"I didn't expect Young Master Wan Lei to be the first to sign up."

"Interesting. Our Qishan Prefecture finally has a powerful figure signing up."

The onlookers all looked at Wan Lei.

Few were disdainful; most looked at Wan Lei with curiosity, as if trying to figure out what made him so great.

As for ardent admirers, there were none, after all, this wasn't the Wan family.

"You're Wan Lei? Wan Lei of the Wan family?!"

The Jindan (Golden Core) cultivator suddenly grabbed Wan Lei's hand, his eyes shining with excitement as he asked.

Wan Lei was suspicious, not knowing what the other person was so excited about, but he still nodded.

The Jindan cultivator released Wan Lei's hand, slapped the table, and stood up with a howl.

"Did you see that? Did you all see that? Our Qishan Prefecture's number one genius, Young Master Wan Lei, has come to sign up! What are you waiting for? What are you looking at?

A bunch of cowards! With Young Master Wan Lei leading you, what are you afraid of?!"

Damn it, can you stop shouting?

This time, it was Wan Lei who gritted his teeth and pressed the cultivator back into his chair.

"Stop shouting."

Wan Lei turned around and looked at the crowd. The originally quiet crowd now had two or three Jindan cultivators stepping forward.

"Since Young Master Lei is going, then we'll follow Young Master Lei for a trip. With Young Master Lei here, I suppose our Qishan Prefecture won't be too embarrassed."

Wan Lei still underestimated his own influence. In the past few days, he had suppressed the Wan family's rebellion with his own strength. He had just formed his Golden Core and was already capable of killing seven Jindan cultivators, including those with upper-stage Jindan cultivation.

This achievement made Wan Lei famous.

Some busybodies even said that Wan Lei was the well-deserved number one genius of Qishan Prefecture. After all, he was only fifteen years old, had Jindan cultivation, and such a brilliant record.

Even the previous number one genius, Wan Liuchuan, couldn't compare to him.

After all, Wan Lei also had a record of defeating Wan Liuchuan, who had Jindan cultivation, with his own foundation-establishment cultivation.

But the problem was, Wan Lei planned to quietly participate in a competition, then shock everyone and show off a little. Now it was good, what was he going to do with these burdens?

Seeing Wan Lei sighing unhappily, Sui Xiaohang patted him on the shoulder and said:

"Great fame is tiring, but you have to bear it. Many people want a status like yours but can't get it.

Don't worry about having no acquaintances ahead; who in the world doesn't know you?

Young Master Lei, you've suffered."

"Can you put away the smile on your face before you comfort me?"

"Wan Lei, age fifteen, from the Wan family of Qishan Prefecture, Lanning Kingdom.

Alright, Young Master Lei, registration is complete."

The Jindan cultivator quickly filled out his information, as if afraid that Wan Lei would go back on his word.

"I think I should disguise myself and change my name before registering."

Wan Lei now felt more and more that he was rash, jumping into the pit hastily without thinking it through.

Didn't he see that everyone else was watching? Only he was so stupid…

Sigh…

"Young Master Lei, why don't you go home and talk to Young Master Liuchuan, and ask him to participate too?"

The Jindan cultivator regretted it as soon as he finished speaking.

He had only remembered that there was another genius, Wan Liuchuan, but then he remembered that Wan Lei and Wan Liuchuan were at odds, and they had previously competed for the position of heir.

A few days ago, he even killed his grandfather. It would be good if the two didn't fight when they met, how could they possibly participate in the competition together?

Wan Lei ignored him and asked, "Does every city in the Lei Feng Realm have such a registration point?"

"Of course not. This notice is first issued by the Nine Great Powers to other forces and countries, and then the countries pass it down to the prefectures, and the prefectural cities handle the registration.

The registration time is three months, which is to allow people in remote areas to receive the news and get to the prefectural city in time."

"Oh, so the competition will start in three months. Where will we compete?"

"The prefectural city will open a teleportation array on that day to send the participants to the capital. After all the people from each prefecture have arrived, the capital will open a teleportation array to directly send them to the Central Region for the competition.

Young Master Lei, you also know that many important figures from the Central Region will be watching the battle, so the competition venue must be in the Central Region.

These two teleportations are free. If you miss them, you'll have to pay for the teleportation array yourself."

Tian Suanzi seized the opportunity to explain, "The teleportation array from Qishan Prefecture to the capital costs five thousand spirit stones per person, and the teleportation array from the capital to the Central Region costs fifty thousand spirit stones per person."

Wan Lei immediately gasped. Good heavens, that was too expensive! Just a whoosh, and thousands or tens of thousands of spirit stones were gone?

"By the way, Young Master Wan Lei, each participant can bring two servants to the Central Region. The servants can watch the battle from outside, but they cannot participate."

Wan Lei didn't care much about this. He wouldn't bring any servants to the Central Region himself.

"That… there must be a lot of people in the competition."

Wan Lei frowned slightly. It wasn't that he was afraid, but he was worried about how to protect himself if it turned out to be a big melee.

"There won't be too many. In the last competition, the entire Lei Feng Realm only had a little over ten thousand participants."

"A little over ten thousand? How is that possible? Jindan cultivators in this Lei Feng Realm are as common as hairs."

"Oh, my young master, think about it. Take our Qishan Prefecture, for example. Can you pick out fifty Jindan cultivators under the age of fifty, even if you include rogue cultivators?

Even if there are, most of them are in the early stage of Jindan, and basically don't have much confidence in themselves, like these two or three behind you. They'll be easily chopped up like vegetables."

Hearing this, the faces of the few cultivators who had mustered their courage instantly became extremely embarrassed.

They were all in the early stage of Jindan.

The person at the registration desk continued, "Even if someone isn't afraid of death and has special confidence in themselves, then among those with strength, can you pick out ten?

Someone like you, who is young and has high cultivation, and can easily kill upper-stage Jindan cultivators, is the only one in the entire Qishan Prefecture."

This wasn't just giving Wan Lei a compliment; the fact was indeed so.

"But what about those who participate in the Wan Jiao (Myriad Pride) List? Someone like you, to put it bluntly, how many can those big families and forces cultivate?

I'm not saying everyone is like you, but five or six out of ten who dare to participate have strength like yours.

Wan Jiao List, what is the Wan Jiao List? It is a list that has been fought out by tens of thousands of geniuses in the entire Lei Feng Realm. It represents the most powerful geniuses in the entire Lei Feng Realm, and they are the future strong seedlings of Lei Feng Realm.

This alone is enough to persuade nine out of ten Jindan cultivators in Lei Feng Realm to quit.

Just watch, this time, it would be good if more than ten people from Qishan Prefecture participate."
