Chapter 1665: They’re All Experts (1)
Lan Xihe swept her eyes across the crowd as she stood on the deck of the flying chariot.
Most, if not all, cultivators in the Great Void knew Lan Xihe was a Great Dao Saint. Who would dare to challenge her?
Ling Weiyang said praisingly, “The new generation is replacing the old. We’re getting old…”
…
At the same time, Qi Sheng, who was at the western side of Cloud Domain, had been secretly observing the movements around him. After a moment, he said, “Since the Commander of Xihe Hall has arrived, let’s continue.”
Chong Guang Hall was the only one out of the ten halls that had its name changed. Although most people referred to it as Chong Guang Hall, its name was now Xihe Hall.
Upon hearing Qi Sheng’s words, Lan Xihe looked at Qi Sheng calmly.
Qi Sheng was in charge of the commander’s competition, which was equivalent to being the host of the competition. Hence, everyone treated him and his words with great caution. Most importantly, everyone knew that the new Commander of Tu Wei Hall had a very close relationship with the Sacred Temple. More often than not, his action and attitude represent the Sacred Temple.
At this time, many people could not bear to look away from Lan Xihe’s peerlessly beautiful face. She had always been aloof and private so how could ordinary people get to see her under normal circumstances?
At this time, an attendant placed a chair behind Lan Xihe. When she sat down, the crowd could no longer see her.
With that, everyone had no choice but to shift their eyes back to the center of the Cloud Domain.
Qi Sheng turned to the Silver Guard next to him and asked in a low voice, “Has the note been sent?”
The Silver Guard replied, “Yes. It was not easy to find all of them. Oh, wait, it’s not been sent to Zhu Honggong.”
Qi Sheng nodded. “It’s fine. I believe he’ll select a suitable hall.”
“Since he’s with the Sacred Temple, so it wasn’t easy to get close to him. Although you work for the temple as well, it’s best to be cautious,” the Silver Guard said.
Qi Sheng nodded.
…
In the arena.
Yu Zhenghai said in a clear voice, “15 minutes will pass very soon. I hope that everyone won’t miss this great opportunity.”
It had been a long time since Yu Zhenghai had a good fight so he was eager for people to challenge him.
The spectators shook their heads.
One of the participants said, “Brother, you’re a Great Dao Saint. Who would dare to challenge you? You can have Yan Feng Hall!”
The other participants nodded in agreement.
Yu Zhenghai shook his head, feeling very dissatisfied. He looked at the cultivators from the ten halls and suddenly pointed at a cultivator standing in front. “What about you? Do you want to challenge me?”
The cultivator waved his hand hastily. “I don’t want to challenge you.”
“No, you do.”
“Ah? No! Not at all!” the cultivator said before he flew to the back of the crowd with a loud swoosh.
Everyone laughed out loud.
Yu Zhenghai said somewhat helplessly, “Isn’t there anyone who can fight?”
…
Ling Weiyang wore a slightly proud expression on his face as he looked at Bai Zhaoju and said, “Bai Zhaoju, what do you think?”
“It’s alright,” Bai Zhaoju replied.
“Why don’t you send your people out to challenge him?” Ling Weiyang said goadingly.
“There’s no need for that. There are plenty of opportunities anyway,” Bai Zhaoju said as he glanced at Qi Sheng. Everything was going according to the plan, and he could not let Ling Weiyang’s goading ruin the plan.
…
15 minutes passed in just a blink of an eye.
Qi Sheng did not waste time and announced, “Yu Zhenghai from the Eastern Lost Land is now the Commander of Yan Feng Hall.”
Yu Zhenghai sighed, shook his head, and flew back.
The spectators looked at each other as if to ask, ‘Why’s this person so unhappy when he has already won?’
As Yu Zhenghai flew back, Yu Shangrong lightly tapped his toes and flew into the arena.
Yu Shangrong was much more direct than Yu Shangrong. He drew his sword and pointed in the direction of Xuan Meng Hall and said, “I’m Yu Shangrong. I want to challenge Xuan Meng Hall. Please advise me.”
The crowd began to discuss among themselves again.
“It’s another one of the Azure Emperor’s men.”
“This one doesn’t seem to be easy to deal with either.”
“Isn’t that obvious? It’s said that those two are the strongest among all the owners of the Great Void Seeds. They even defeated Commander Zhang He of Xuanyi Palace. Speaking of which, isn’t it strange? Why did he challenge Xuan Meng Hall instead of Xuanyi Palace?”
Everyone was puzzled.
The matter of Zhang He’s defeat was not a secret.
…
Meanwhile, Zhang He looked embarrassed when he heard the discussion in his surroundings. He thought to himself, ‘You’re a bunch of ignorant fools! Let’s see what you’re going to do when you’re beaten up by them.’
…
The people from Xuan Meng Hall looked at each other, but no one stepped forward.
After a moment, someone from the ten halls called out impatiently, “What are you waiting for? Everyone’s time is precious. Stop wasting time and come out to accept the challenge.”
Everyone from the ten halls and various forces in the Great Void turned to look at Xuan Meng Hall’s flying chariot. They were still puzzled and growing impatient when a weak voice rang from the flying chariot.
“I admit defeat.”
“???”
When these three words were said, some people were surprised and some thought it was only normal.
“I heard that the Commander of Xuan Meng Hall is seriously injured. From the looks of it, it seems like the rumors are true.”
Wei Chen, the first challenger, smacked his thigh and said, “Ah! Why didn’t you say so earlier? Otherwise, I would’ve challenged Xuan Meng Hall earlier.”
“Keep dreaming. Even if you challenged him and won, you still have to accept other challenges.”
…
Yu Shangrong shook his head, looking slightly disappointed. “I have a suggestion. If the people of Xuan Meng Hall are willing, they can step forward to fight on behalf of their commander.”
“So, a substitute?”
“What kind of suggestion is this? The other party has already admitted defeat so why is there a need to be so aggressive?”
Yu Shangrong said, “I hope there’s an expert who can satisfy me.”
“...”
‘Each of them is more arrogant than the other.”
‘They’re too f*cking pretentious!’
…
Bai Zhaoju turned to the side and said, “Ling Weiyang, did you teach these two people to behave like that?”
“Believe it or not, when I first met them, they were already like this,” Ling Weiyang replied.
Bai Zhaoju laughed. “Interesting. This is getting more and more interesting.”
…
As expected, despite Yu Shangrong’s suggestion, nobody stepped forward to challenge him.
