After the incident with Jun Wanjie concluded, this news spread throughout the entire Southern Heavenly City.
The feat of Jun Xiaoyao effortlessly subduing the Fifth Sequence and making him submit was also widely praised.
Although this was considered an internal conflict within the Jun family, Jun Xiaoyao's strength could be glimpsed from this event.
In the western area of Southern Heavenly City, inside an exquisite and magnificent pavilion, a group of young geniuses were gathering.
These young geniuses came from various sects and forces, all with impressive auras.
However, among them, there was one young man sitting in the center, like a moon surrounded by stars.
This young man wore a golden robe, appeared majestic and handsome, with skin as white as jade.
The most eye-catching feature about him was his right arm, which seemed to be flickering with divine light.
Upon closer inspection, one could see numerous sacred runes seemingly imprinted and flowing on his arm bone.
This young man was none other than Ji Xuan, a renowned genius from the ancient Ji family.
At this moment during the banquet, a young genius flatteringly said to Ji Xuan, "In this upcoming Primordial Supreme Secret Realm, Brother Ji Xuan will surely take first place."
"Indeed, Brother Ji Xuan is known as the Little Saint and is also the Holy Son of the Sacred Spirit Academy. His status is incomparable to other geniuses."
Many young geniuses were flattering and currying favor with him.
Ji Xuan's identity was enough for them to suck up to him.
Because Ji Xuan wasn't just a genius from the ancient Ji family.
He was also a Holy Son of the Sacred Spirit Academy.
The Sacred Spirit Academy was an institution with extremely profound heritage in the Desolate Celestial Domain, having been passed down for countless years.
The outstanding disciples who graduated from this academy were spread throughout various powers in the Desolate Celestial Domain.
Even many ancient families and immortal dynasties would send some of their younger disciples to cultivate at the Sacred Spirit Academy.
And within the Sacred Spirit Academy, only the most outstanding disciples could obtain the status of Holy Son.
The fact that Ji Xuan could obtain this status was enough to show that his talent and strength far surpassed his peers.
Some geniuses' gazes also secretly fell on Ji Xuan's faintly glowing right arm.
It was rumored that Ji Xuan's right arm had been fused with a section of a Saint King's hand bone.
Among the Saint realm, a Saint King was an existence even more powerful than a Saint.
A Saint King could look down upon the world and dominate the four seas.
And Ji Xuan, who was only at the Convergence realm, had already fused with a section of a Saint King's hand bone.
One can imagine how powerful his strength would be.
Even though at his current level, he couldn't exert even one-tenth or two-tenths of the Saint King hand bone's power.
But it was enough for him to stand proudly among his peers.
It was also because of this section of Saint King hand bone that he obtained the title of Little Saint.
"However, speaking of status, it reminds me of that Divine Son of the Jun family," one genius said.
As soon as these words were spoken, the lively banquet became unusually quiet.
A subtle, suppressed atmosphere emerged.
These days in Southern Heavenly City, they had naturally heard about the matter between Jun Xiaoyao and Jun Wanjie.
For these geniuses, forget about Jun Wanjie, even Jun Zhiangjian was someone they needed to look up to.
And Jun Xiaoyao, who could effortlessly subdue even Jun Wanjie, was like the sun and moon in the sky to them, visible but unreachable.
Some people's gazes subtly looked towards Ji Xuan.
They had just been saying how high Ji Xuan's status was, but compared to Jun Xiaoyao, it seemed to be nothing.
Ji Xuan's expression didn't change much. He picked up a cup of wine, slowly sipping it, his eyes very deep.
"The Divine Son of the Jun family..." Ji Xuan murmured.
To be honest, when he learned that Jun Xiaoyao had appeared in Southern Heavenly City, Ji Xuan really wanted to compare himself with Jun Xiaoyao.
Not for anything else, but for the family behind him.
For the ancient families in the Desolate Celestial Domain, there had always been a saying about the Three Great Families.
The so-called Three Great Families referred to the three ancient families with the most renowned reputation, strongest foundation, and most outstanding younger generation.
Among these, the younger generation was one of the important indicators for measuring the Three Great Families.
After all, only with a prosperous younger generation could the entire ancient family be passed down.
The Ji family was once one of the Three Great Families, but now, it had become the Jun family, the Jiang family, and the Ye family.
The Jun family needs no further explanation, they have always been producing talents. In the previous generation, Jun Wuyou alone was enough to establish the Jun family's position as one of the Three Great Families.
The current generation also has the Ten Sequences, and the anomaly prodigy Jun Xiaoyao.
As for the current Jiang family, they have Jiang Shengyi with the Innate Dao Embryo, Jiang Luoli with the Elemental Spirit Dao Body, and several other top-tier Royal Body geniuses.
As for the Ye family, not to mention the Royal Body geniuses like Ye Xingyun, just the reincarnated Sword Demon Ye Guchen is enough to extend the Ye family's fortunes for ten thousand years.
It was precisely because of this that Ji Xuan felt somewhat discontented.
Did their Ji family not have any geniuses?
However, Ji Xuan wasn't a fool. He knew that Jun Xiaoyao wasn't someone easy to deal with.
But he possessed a Saint King's hand bone and was also a top-tier genius. It wasn't possible for him to be directly afraid of Jun Xiaoyao.
Some people noticed that Ji Xuan's mood wasn't quite right, and they forced a smile and said, "Haha, why mention the Divine Son of the Jun family? Could it be that Brother Ji Xuan can't compare to the Divine Son of the Jun family?"
"That's right, Brother Ji Xuan has even defeated members of the Jun family's Sequence," a young genius flattered.
They weren't just talking nonsense.
Ji Xuan had indeed fought with Jun Zhiangjian before.
At that time, relying on his slightly higher realm, he had gained a small advantage and won against Jun Zhiangjian by a few moves.
Now Ji Xuan's strength, although stronger, it's not possible for others to remain stagnant.
"Jun Xiaoyao, if he doesn't actively provoke me, I don't need to provoke him first. Moreover, I previously found some secrets about the Primordial Supreme in a fragment of an ancient text at the Sacred Spirit Academy, as well as that thing..." Ji Xuan muttered in his heart.
He didn't come unprepared.
Because he had accidentally stumbled upon an ancient text in the Sacred Spirit Academy's scripture tower, which not only contained a Primordial Supreme token but also an ancient talisman.
In the ancient text, there were vague records of some of the Primordial Supreme's deeds and secrets.
Within the Primordial Supreme's secret realm, there seemed to be hidden a rare worldly treasure.
If obtained, it could shape an invincible young supreme being.
After obtaining this opportunity, Ji Xuan was extremely excited and had been patiently waiting for the Primordial Supreme's secret realm to appear.
And now, the time had finally come.
"As long as I can seize this opportunity, I, Ji Xuan, will soar to great heights, standing at the peak of the younger generation in the Desolate Celestial Domain."
"At that time, I alone will sweep through all the young supreme beings of the Three Great Families. Who can stop me?"
Thinking of the scene that might appear in the future, Ji Xuan took a deep breath, his eyes brimming with light.
At the same time, at the gates of Southern Heavenly City, a figure wearing a cloak and hood entered through the city gate.
He raised his head, revealing a handsome and delicate face. It was Xiao Chen!
