The two iron cages exuded a powerful aura.

However, Jun Xiaoyao directly ignored one of them and looked towards the other.

"What a strong bloodline power," Jun Xiaoyao said, somewhat surprised.

His standards were high; he absolutely looked down on ordinary geniuses.

Strength was secondary; the most important factor was great potential for growth.

For example, a fourteen-year-old prodigy who reached the Unity Realm versus a several-hundred-year-old expert who reached the Divine Fire Realm.

Jun Xiaoyao would unhesitatingly choose the former.

Potential was more important than strength.

Now, in Jun Xiaoyao's perception, the being within one of the iron cages contained a magnificent bloodline power.

It was as if a sun was burning.

In contrast, the aura from the other iron cage, while incredibly strong and filled with a chilling malevolence, lacked any special characteristics.

At this moment, the elder who was hosting spoke up: "Everyone, the next act is the highlight. You won't believe where this creature on the left comes from."

As the elder spoke, he had someone pull away the covering cloth.

A creature, entirely black, with wings on its back and a face resembling a fierce demon, appeared.

It emitted a shrill scream, the sound waves seemingly capable of shattering a person's divine essence.

"That is..." Many cultivators stood up, staring at the fearsome creature in disbelief.

The younger generation of cultivators looked somewhat confused, not quite understanding.

Instead, some elders, after carefully observing the creature, gasped sharply.

"This... could it be a being from the foreign realm's Demon Clan?" an elder with white hair exclaimed in shock.

As soon as these words were spoken, many cultivators' eyes widened in astonishment.

"Is it really from the foreign realm?" Some young prodigies also showed expressions of surprise.

Although they had heard of the foreign realm, they had never been close to that place, let alone seen what beings from the foreign realm looked like.

Jun Xiaoyao also revealed a look of curiosity.

He remembered that the Supreme Being of the Yuan Tian seemed to have gone to the foreign realm and ultimately brought back the upper scroll of the body book.

However, he also became tainted by the dark matter of the foreign realm and regrettably fell.

"Hehe, my friend indeed has a keen eye. That's right, this is a being from the foreign realm's Demon Clan," the hosting elder chuckled.

"How could there be beings from the foreign realm? Is the foreign realm planning to invade the Immortal Domain again?" Some elders felt uneasy.

Because such events had happened before.

They had caused great suffering to the beings of the Immortal Domain; not to mention ordinary people, even the immortal forces could not withstand it, leading to the destruction of many.

Such a catastrophe could sweep across the entire Nine Heavens Immortal Domain.

The entire Immortal Domain would be left with no pure land.

"My friend is overreacting. The foreign realm hasn't made any major moves in a long time; at most, there are only minor skirmishes. Occasionally, beings enter the Immortal Domain, but they either get killed or captured," the hosting elder said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, some elders finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Now, everyone began to carefully examine the Demon Clan creature.

"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect to actually capture a living member of the Demon Clan. This is a powerful race from the foreign realm," one cultivator exclaimed.

Like the Immortal Domain, the foreign realm also had countless races.

Among them were many powerful clans, even immortal imperial clans, such as the Gu Lan Clan, the Bi An Clan, the Zu An Clan, and so on.

Although the Demon Clan could not yet be considered an immortal imperial clan, it was still a powerful royal clan from the foreign realm, with deep roots.

Now being able to see a living member of the Demon Clan was quite a rare event for the cultivators present.

"This is a powerful Demon Clan from the foreign realm; the one facing it is going to be unlucky."

"Yeah, the aura from that cage is also very strong, but unfortunately, it encountered the foreign realm's Demon Clan."

The other cage had not yet been unveiled, but the vast majority of people present believed that the Demon Clan would win without a doubt.

After all, it was a powerful foreign clan, which inherently gave a strong impression.

Seeing this scene, the hosting elder stroked his beard and said, "Everyone, don't be so quick to draw conclusions; the strength of the other slave is also quite formidable."

As he spoke, the cloth covering the iron cage was pulled away.

Everyone focused their gaze.

Inside the iron cage sat a young man in a meditative posture.

The young man had long black hair cascading to the ground, his upper body bare, with golden patterns tattooed on his skin, converging at his chest to form a sun totem.

Equally striking were the numerous gruesome scars on his body, each one making people wonder how he had survived.

At this moment, the young man had his eyes closed, seemingly oblivious to the external commotion, as if he were in deep meditation.

"Is this it?"

Upon seeing the young man, many cultivators were taken aback.

They had expected to see some extraordinary figure.

Instead, it was just a young man who appeared to have decent cultivation.

Compared to the foreign realm's Demon Clan, this young man was somewhat disappointing.

"Everyone, don't underestimate him; he should be from the Xuantian Immortal Domain and is likely a descendant of a top-tier force," the hosting elder said.

"Xuantian Immortal Domain?"

Now, some cultivators' eyes began to flicker.

In the center of the Nine Immortal Domains lay an endless expanse of cosmic star seas and dimensional spaces.

Crossing to another Immortal Domain was no simple task.

The young man's cultivation clearly wasn't particularly high; he must have been brought over by other powerful beings.

In the end, he was left all alone.

The hosting elder did not elaborate further.

Because this young man kept his identity and origins to himself.

The Wanbao Merchant Association clearly could not know the forces of the Xuantian Immortal Domain, so they were also unclear about this person's background.

It was only because he came from another Immortal Domain that they treated it as a gimmick.

At this point, both sides of the battle were already clear.

But any discerning person could see that the Demon Clan was likely to achieve an overwhelming victory.

As for the young man, although he was from the Xuantian Immortal Domain, no one knew his identity or background.

No one knew which force he inherited from.

Thus, almost no one bet on him to win.

"I bet sixty pieces of Immortal Source on the Demon Clan's victory," the Yin Yang Holy Son placed his wager.

Only a fool would not take advantage of such an easy opportunity.

"I'll bet fifty pieces of Immortal Source on the Demon Clan's victory," said a noble-looking man beside the Yin Yang Holy Son.

He was Xia Lan, a prince of the Daxia Dynasty and also a Holy Son of the Sacred Spirit Academy.

"I'll just bet ten pieces of Immortal Source; I'm broke..." Hua Xiqing said regretfully.

Additionally, the Golden-Winged Roc King, Ye Xingyun, and others also placed their bets on the Demon Clan.

In their view, this was a sure win.

At that moment, a voice came from a luxurious box.

"We bet on that young man to win, four hundred pieces of Immortal Source!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire venue fell silent.

Everyone's gaze turned in unison towards that box.

"I must have misheard; four hundred pieces of Immortal Source? Which wealthy family is this?"

"Even if it's a descendant of an immortal force, they wouldn't casually take out so much Immortal Source, right?"

"Moreover, this bet is completely off; do they want to lose everything?"

"From the voice, it seems to be that princess of the Divine Dynasty..."

The entire venue erupted in a clamor, many people were astonished.

Previously, the young master of the merchant association, Qian Duo, had personally introduced Jun Xiaoyao to the VIP box, so no one knew it was Jun Xiaoyao's box.

Later, when Wu Mingyue entered, everyone assumed it was the princess's box.

"Ah, that princess is indeed a wealthy woman, but unfortunately, she's too aloof..." the Yin Yang Holy Son chuckled.

He believed that Wu Mingyue was merely wasting Immortal Source.

Just as everyone was in an uproar, the young man sitting cross-legged in the iron cage suddenly opened his eyes and looked towards the box where Jun Xiaoyao was.

Those pure golden eyes, covered in runes, were sharp like an eagle's gaze, seemingly piercing through the void, locking eyes with Jun Xiaoyao!
