Among the eight, three actually came from the Great Qi Nation.
They were Qin Chen, Zhao Lingshan, and Wang Qiming.
"This Great Qi Nation is truly surprising; how can there be three disciples who have persisted until now? This has already been two and a half hours! Even the Great Wei Dynasty has eliminated many of their Mystic Level geniuses, yet this Great Qi Nation..."
The crowd was shocked, almost unable to believe it.
"Hehe, actually, there's nothing difficult to understand about this."
At this moment, a cold voice suddenly rang out, drawing everyone's attention.
It was an old man with graying hair, also a renowned expert from one of the five nations, who spoke: "The will of the Ancient Southern Capital has already made it clear. The second round of the assessment is about how long the martial artists can endure under pressure. However, to be fair, the pressure endured varies with age, so younger martial artists naturally bear less pressure than older ones."
"The three of Qin Chen have also participated in the Blood Spirit Pool assessment before, and it is said that they just graduated from the Tianxing Academy, with ages generally around fifteen or sixteen. So, the pressure they can withstand certainly cannot be compared with that of other geniuses."
"To have persisted until now is quite reasonable."
Upon hearing this, everyone suddenly understood.
Indeed, compared to others, Qin Chen and his companions were far too young. Moreover, their cultivation levels were not low, so the pressure they experienced in this formation was naturally much lighter. In terms of true strength, they certainly could not compare to those Mystic Level martial artists.
"Hehe, under such pressure, Qin Chen has spat out so much blood before; it shows just how poor his strength is."
Someone sneered, mockingly.
But some peopleās gazes hardened.
Breaking through to the late Heaven Level at just fifteen or sixteen years old, such talent, even in the Great Wei Dynasty, would not be weak.
Could the five nations really cultivate such geniuses?
Aside from Qin Chen and the others, from the five nations, You Qianxue of the Ling Tian Sect also managed to persist.
And You Qianxue was only eighteen years old, making her one of the youngest among all the participants.
Everyone could understand this.
The most shocking to all was the Gui Xian Sect.
The remaining four out of the eight all came from the Gui Xian Sect, and each of them appeared to be over twenty years old.
"Where did the Gui Xian Sect find so many geniuses?"
The crowd was puzzled, their hearts shaken.
Among the five nations, the highest cultivation level should belong to Yu Wenfeng of the Great Liang Nation, who was twenty-four years old and at least at the mid-Mystic Level.
However, he had already been eliminated in less than two and a half hours.
Yet, several strong members of the Gui Xian Sect, seemingly not much younger than Yu Wenfeng, continued to persist until now.
Moreover, this group from the Gui Xian Sect had a very mysterious origin, causing everyone to secretly feel vigilant.
"Unexpectedly, within these five nations, there are so many geniuses."
"Whatās going on? Isn't the northwest five nations extremely remote? According to logic, itās very difficult for geniuses to appear here that can rival our Great Wei Dynasty. How come so many have suddenly appeared?"
The people from the Great Wei Dynasty were astonished. Originally, they imagined that in the northwest five nations, no one could compare with their Great Wei Dynasty, but the results of the assessment surprised them greatly.
"Hmph, this is nothing. The Ancient Southern Capital originated from these five nations; perhaps the people here have frequently conducted assessments and have summarized some experiences."
At this time, someone sneered, exuding arrogance.
"That's right. The so-called tests in the first three rounds are merely for some filtering. The real outcome will be determined in the final arena battle. Could the people from the five nations possibly be our Xuan Province geniuses' opponents?"
