Volume 1 The Continent of the Phoenix, Chapter 7: The Battle
The Tao family will be a grand event every three years for the Tao family, on this day the young disciples of the East and West Courtyards will gather in the East Courtyard to elect the best young generation of the Tao Family, and those who can emerge at the clan meeting will inevitably become the focus of the Tao Family's key cultivation objects, which is the same for many disciples of the West Academy, if they can perform on this day and be favored by the middle and high levels of the clan, it will also have countless benefits for their future, and it is even possible to enter the East Courtyard to become a disciple of the East Academy!
Although the Tao family can only be regarded as a second-rate force in this long-cherished phoenix continent, in the Starfall City where the Tao family is located, it is a well-deserved giant! On this day, all the forces in the Starfall City will rush to visit, and they all want to take advantage of this grand event to further the relationship with the Tao family, but under this lively atmosphere, no one in the Tao family feels the slightest uneasiness in the air.
Yue Chen, like many disciples in the West Courtyard, came to the East Courtyard Martial Arts Training Ground under the leadership of Zhao Yan, but he didn't expect that he would return here a month later, and Yue Chen's eyes had a little more stunned look.
Looking at Yue Chen's eyes, Zi Muyu gently grabbed the corner of his sleeve, and there was a bit of concern in his eyes.
Shaking his head gently at Zi Muyu, the melancholy in Yue Chen's eyes was also swept away in an instant, he knew that this was not the time to be melancholy, the reason why he came to the party was just a trace of uneasiness that rose in his heart, and he naturally would not forget his purpose.
"Yohe, isn't this Young Master Yue Chen, who was just kicked out by the Eastern Courtyard, how can he still have the face to come back?" With a somewhat sarcastic voice, not far from Yue Chen's side, several disciples of the Eastern Courtyard walked slowly, and the leading Yue Chen was very familiar with it, it was the third Tao family disciple who defeated him in the wheel battle.
"Tao Ran, you can't even go through my three moves alone!" Yue Chen's face did not change, and he sneered.
"Yuechen, you bastard who was demoted to the West Courtyard and asked for food dare to talk to me like this!"
This sentence not only made Yue Chen's eyes a little colder, but the disciples of the West Courtyard beside Yue Chen were also a little more angry!
"You fart, you're the one in the East Courtyard who wants food!" Although the other disciples of the West Courtyard looked at each other angrily, they were still able to restrain themselves, but Zi Muyu's temper couldn't bear it, and he shouted so angrily that his pretty face turned red, and he scolded back without hesitation!
Zi Muyu's body was a little petite than Yuechen and them, and she had been blocked by many disciples before, so no one had noticed this little girl before, and after hearing this angry scream, Tao Ran found that there was such a beautiful little girl in this crowd, and her eyes suddenly lit up.
"Yo, can there be such a beautiful little girl in a poor and sour place like the West Courtyard?"
"Haha, if you don't give our boss a child daughter-in-law, our East Courtyard is not comparable to the poor and sour places in the West Courtyard!"
......
The words made Zi Muyu's already angry little face flush a little more! When the pink fist was clenched and was about to make a move, Yue Chen gently grabbed her wrist with her backhand and said lightly: "We are here to participate in the clan meeting, there is no need to entangle with this group of dogs!"
Slightly stunned, the eyes of the many disciples of the Western Courtyard were a little more sneering, but the faces of Tao Ran and his party were instantly full of gloom.
"Yuechen, you are looking for death!" Hearing Yue Chen's somewhat sarcastic words, Tao Ran's palms were slightly bent, and some sharp nails on his ten fingers were glowing with a little coldness, and he grabbed Yue Chen's chest directly.
It's no wonder that he dared to provoke Yue Chen again, this move is a ground-level C-grade holy skill, Eagle Hook Claw, this move is a holy skill that he barely mastered before the clan meeting, and it is also the hole card that he intends to make a splash at the clan meeting. The abnormal movement here attracted the attention of countless disciples around him.
"It's actually a holy technique! Tao Ran has already mastered a holy technique?"
"This is the second elder's hook and claw! I've seen that even the hardest thing can be easily pulled out of a hole once you grab it, that power is tsk! Yue Chen can't stop this move!"
Everyone's eyes were attracted, they all wanted to know if this Yue Chen, who had been relegated to the Western Courtyard, still had the ability to fight in the face of such a powerful holy technique!
Listening to the exclamations from the audience, Tao Ran's eyes suddenly rose a little proud, the holy technique is extremely rare even among the younger generation of the Tao family, and there are only a handful of people who can master it, he naturally doesn't think that Yue Chen can catch his move.
looked at the oncoming claws with a calm face, and when everyone was not optimistic about Yue Chen, the latter unhurriedly swung out a punch and collided with Tao Ran's hook claws.
The powerful thrust without warning instantly made Tao Ran's face change, and his body seemed to be hit by a heavy hammer and pushed backwards for a few steps before he stabilized his body, and the claws that were originally enough to tear the wood and stone were indeed trembling, and a pale appeared on his face.
Looking at Tao Ran, who was pale, and then looked at Yue Chen, who was just punching Yue Chen at random, the audience was also in an instant riot after a little silence, after all, who was weak and who was strong, the people present naturally judged in their hearts, after Yue Chen left the East Courtyard, it seemed to have become stronger! This is the only thought in the hearts of all the disciples of the East Courtyard nearby.
"You have also cultivated the Holy Technique, how is it possible!" Tao Ran's pale face was a little more hideous, he didn't believe that he couldn't even use the hole cards that he had cultivated with great difficulty, and he couldn't even beat Yue Chen.
The young man's immature and delicate face in the field was full of calm, without a trace of pride, and he looked at Tao Ran coldly and said indifferently, "The people who took you will leave immediately! Our West Courtyard is here to participate in the clan meeting, so please take care of your mouth!"
"Okay, good Yue Chen, after Brother Tao Lin defeats Tao Xiao, I will see who can still support you! When you kneel and beg me!" Glancing at Yue Chen resentfully, Tao Ran secretly thought that he immediately waved his hand and led a group of people, and left the scene in a gloomy manner.
But Yue Chen didn't expect that he had just revealed his hand slightly, but it made many Eastern Courtyard disciples change his mentality a little more, after all, the strong people in this Tao family are respected, and there are probably only a handful of people who can defeat Tao Ran so easily in this Tao family!
Slowly sitting on the seat of the West Courtyard behind him, Yue Chen suddenly sent the surrounding West Courtyard disciples to look at him, and there were many changes.
"Don't be surprised, you're their idol now!" Feng Bo sat lightly beside Yue Chen and smiled, looking at him with a little more admiration in his eyes.
Looking at Yue Chen's puzzled expression, Feng Bo sighed before he said slowly: "The Tao Family Association, our Western Courtyard is often provoked by the Eastern Courtyard, but because the strength is far inferior to the other party, people dare not speak out!"
Only then did Yue Chen understand that defeating Tao Ran just now not only dealt a blow to the arrogance of the Eastern Courtyard, but also gave a bad breath to the Western Courtyard. Shrugged helplessly, Yue Chen didn't think about it anymore, sat quietly in his seat, slowly running the spiritual power in his body, he understood that the real battle had just begun, and he had to ensure that he was in his heyday!
Looking at Yue Chen, who had entered the cultivation state in an instant, Feng Bo couldn't help but secretly admire in his heart, and sitting beside him, he also began to silently adjust his state.
The people on the stage slowly withdrew from the field, until the moment when the sun reached the middle of the sky, a long trumpet sounded. Yue Chen slowly opened his eyes, and he knew that the clan would face it up!
Not far from the direction of the stage, there is a two-story terrace, the platform is already full of people at some point, and the man in the middle instantly attracted Yue Chen's attention.
The man's sword eyebrows are very handsome, his hair is as black as ink, he is dressed in golden-white luxurious clothes, and his straight figure seems to be full of explosive power, just by looking at it, you can feel that powerful aura.
He is Yue Chen's titular father-in-law, and he is also the strongest person in the Tao family, Tao Xuan, the head of the Tao family!
Yue Chen looked at the man on the stage a little sluggishly, his eyes contained a complicated look, he seemed to have not seen his stepfather again for a long time.
"Hmm!" seemed to feel Yue Chen's gaze, squinted over his head, and the moment his eyes met, Yue Chen saw Tao Xuan actually nodding his head at him.
Yue Chen was slightly stunned, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he smiled a little self-deprecatingly: "It turns out that he still remembers me!"
Without too much pause, the clan meeting officially began after these high-ranking Taojia officials and guests took their seats.
The Tao family meeting, held every three years, is mainly for the Tao family under the age of 12 saint masters, if the position of the saint teacher at the age of 12 can not sense the aura, then this body is probably no longer possible, so under the age of 12, can become the saint teacher, are the young talents of the Tao family, the backbone of the Tao family in the future.
"This Tao family's clan meeting is also to better discover and cultivate talents, in the clan meeting, all holy masters under the age of 12 must leave a trace of holy power on the Tao family's holy stone, and then the holy stone will automatically deduce the talent level of this holy master according to the level of holy power, purity and age of the holy master, which is also the first content of the clan meeting!"
"According to the talent, the holy stone will emit seven grades of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple, and each level is divided into three grades according to the color intensity, and the Tao family talents will also focus on cultivating according to this talent. ”
Feng Bo, who was beside Yue Chen, kept explaining to Yue Chen that although Yue Chen knew about the existence of the clan association, he never cared about these, so he really didn't know much about the specific details of the clan meeting, but he didn't know as much as Feng Bo, who was extremely concerned about the clan meeting.
"Then won't there be a mistake in this holy stone?" Yue Chen couldn't help but express the doubts in his heart.
"Of course it is possible, and it is precisely because of this that after this test, if a disciple disagrees with the disciple ranked above him, he will launch a challenge! This is also the second item of the clan association!" Feng Bo continued to explain, "But according to the clan associations I have attended, very few challenges are successful!"
Seeing that the disciples of the Tao Family's East Courtyard were testing on stage one by one, Yue Chen watched with interest.
"Tao Ran, fourth-level Spiritual Realm, green-level low-level talent!" Tao Ran looked at the faint green light on the holy stone in front of him, and couldn't help but glance at Yue Chen with some pride, and stretched out his little thumb defiantly at him.
It's no wonder he's so sassy, out of so many disciples who have already tested him, he's the first disciple to reach green.
Yuechen didn't seem to see Tao Ran's provocation, and sat on the seat and breathed slowly.
"Next Tao Lin!" Tao Lin came to the stage in the ring, and the second elder sitting on the platform tower also clenched his fists slightly, for this son who was old and had a son, the second elder can be said to have poured all his heart and soul, and naturally has a little confidence.
"Drink!" put his palm on the holy stone, and drank in a low voice, the holy stone instantly burst out with a brilliant light, and the color continued to climb.
Red, orange, yellow, green, the colors continued to climb in exclamations, and finally slowly stopped when the cyan was medium!
I haven't seen such a talented disciple for more than ten years!
Looking at the blue light on the stage, many disciples in the audience suddenly became lively, and the voices of surprise and admiration made Tao Lin's expression a little more proud.
"Tao Lin, ninth-level Inspiration Realm!Blue-level medium talent!" The Tao family deacon on the stage reported the result with some excitement, and there was a little more flattering look in his expression, after all, such a talent will inevitably be very high in the future, you must know that the current Tao family master Tao Xuan, the original talent is only like this!
The second elder's clenched fist was also slowly sent away in the voice of the Tao family deacon, for this kind of achievement, he was naturally very satisfied, you must know that Tao Lin is half a year older than Tao Xiao, this is the last time he will participate in the clan meeting, before this Tao Lin is only a green intermediate, a year of talent has improved so much, I am afraid that during this period, the second elder must use a lot of natural treasures.
"Next, Tao Xiao!"
If Tao Lin's results surprised everyone, then the next disciple of the Tao family to appear can be said to have gathered the eyes of the audience, and a pair of curious eyes were projected, after all, the first person of the younger generation recognized in the Tao family was Tao Xiao, and everyone was very curious about what kind of results he could get at this clan meeting.
Yue Chen in the audience couldn't help but get nervous, staring at the young man in the field tightly, sensing Yue Chen's gaze, Tao Xiao also turned his head and smiled at Yue Chen, his eyes were full of confidence, which made Yue Chen's heart feel a little easier.
