72: Chapter 69: Danger at Every Turn 72: Chapter 69: Danger at Every Turn Seeing that Ye Xuan was not worried at all, a hint of surprise flashed in Xia Xun’s eyes. He had thought that Ye Xuan would at least show some signs of headache, but presently it seemed he did not show even a slight bit of concern, as if he didn’t worry at all about encountering the three from the Jun family in the trial. Ye Xuan appeared to have only the cultivation of a Fifth Grade Martial Master, which was surely not a mistake. Although Ye Xuan’s progress could be considered extremely swift, compared to the likes of Jun Wuming and Xie Cangsheng, he still had a clear gap. Did this son-in-law in name have some unknown tricks up his sleeve? However, Xia Xun only wondered for a moment before he stopped thinking about it. seaʀᴄh thё NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. He had his own mission this time, which was to enter the top three, then snatch the first place from the Jun and Xie families. As for Ye Xuan, he merely greeted him as a formality. Since the latter was confident, why should Xia Xun ask more? “My father and the others are here.” At that moment, dozens of strong presences arrived on the ground in the distance, among those figures prominently was the figure of Xia Tianyou. Additionally, there were two black-haired elders exuding the aura of Martial Sect Masters, though both looked older than Xia Tianyou, their auras were not significantly different from one another. These two black-haired elders’ reputations were naturally familiar to Ye Xuan. Jun Zhantian from the Jun family. Xie Guangbo from the Xie family. Family Heads of the two major families of the Capital. Aside from these three, the other individuals had slightly weaker auras, all belonging to some elders of the three major families, along with other notable family heads or elders. Among them, there were not a few whose cultivation reached the Half-step Martial Sect level, only half a step away from the Martial Sect Master Realm. In the center of the ground, viewing stands and pavilions had been set up early on, with numerous elegant seats–clearly prepared for these significant figures of the Great Xia Kingdom. After taking his seat, Jun Zhantian swept his gaze across the crowd. Initially, he looked towards the three from the Jun family, but then his gaze wandered in the crowd for a while before finally resting on Ye Xuan. In the depths of his eagle-like eyes, a cold ripple flashed. Ye Xuan, realizing Jun Zhantian was looking his way, also looked back, locking eyes with Jun Zhantian. However, after a brief eye contact, Ye Xuan withdrew his gaze. Jun Zhantian was the main planner behind the attack on the Ye family and held the greatest power in the Jun family. This man was arguably the Ye family’s greatest enemy. Dealing with Jun Zhantian, the final link to destroying the Jun family, was something that had to be done eventually, but definitely not now. The greatest threat in this trial was mainly the trio led by Jun Wuming. Addressing easier tasks before the more challenging ones, the people of the Jun family would eventually taste the bitterness of family ruin and personal loss. Boom! Just as Ye Xuan’s thoughts were stirring, on the ground, the sound of a bell suddenly resounded, followed by the gradually subsiding noise of the crowd. Then, in everyone’s view, a black-robed elder slowly ascended into mid-air, stopping about a hundred meters above the ground. A Martial Sect Master! In the eyes of the crowd, a look of reverence immediately emerged. Only those who had reached the realm of Martial Sect could possess the ability to levitate in the air! “So, it’s this old gentleman.” When Ye Xuan’s gaze landed on this black-robed elder, he couldn’t help but feel surprised. This black-robed elder was none other than the mysterious Martial Sect Master who had been surrounded by Jun Shan and Jun Wuyan outside the Capital. Beside him, Xia Xun also showed a look of surprise, obviously recognizing the elder just like Ye Xuan. “What, you know him? This is one of the core Elders of Green Leaf Valley, Elder Xi. This centennial trial is being presided over by him.” Xia Xun looked at both of them with some confusion. A personage like a core Elder of Green Leaf Valley was someone even he had never met before. “We’ve only seen him, not truly known him. But the Jun family will probably have a headache now,” Ye Xuan shook his head and then looked somewhat mockingly towards the location of the three from the Jun family. “How could it be this old fellow? He’s actually the person in charge of the trial?” Jun Wuyan, seeing the black-robed elder in mid-air, immediately had an ugly look on his face. “Is this the Elder from Green Leaf Valley? Do you have a grievance with him?” Jun Kui, standing next to him, turned and asked. “The reason my hand became like this is all thanks to this old man,” Jun Wuyan’s eyes shot out sparks of hatred, his right hand, although restored at great cost, was far less flexible than before, greatly affecting his strength. “The elder of Green Leaf Valley? He is just an old man with no potential. Just bear it for now, I will avenge you in the future.” Jun Wuming said indifferently. “Thank you, big brother.” Jun Wuyan had never thought about revenge, but it was impossible to say he didn’t want it; it just seemed unrealistic. However, Jun Wuming was the most promising young expert in the Jun family. Within no more than five years, he would be able to advance into the Martial Sect Master Realm, overtaking Elder Xi in cultivation. It wasn’t impossible to take revenge for him; there was still hope. At that moment, up in the sky, Elder Xi also looked around at the people below before he slowly began to speak loudly, “Welcome, martial artists from all over the world, to observe this Great Xia Kingdom’s Hundred Clans Trial. The rules of this trial are the same as before. The Princely Heirs from major families will enter the Panlong Mountain you see before you for a fifteen-day trial.” His voice, enveloped in True Qi, quickly spread across the entire plain, and the whispering voices completely subsided at that moment, leaving no sound at all. “Shortly, each Princely Heir participant will receive a trial medallion. During these fifteen days, the participants must collect thirty trial medallions and one hundred trial points in order to return here and partake in the final ultimate showdown. Failing to meet these conditions within the time limit will result in disqualification from the second round.” Elder Xi’s voice floated leisurely. The many Princely Heirs listened attentively, knowing that about two hundred and fifty were participating in the trial, and only eight would likely remain after collecting thirty trial medallions. These eight would be the contestants for the ultimate showdown. As for the one hundred trial points, they would be compiled from scores obtained by hunting Demon Beasts—a peak Second Rank Demon Beast was worth one hundred points, a late-stage Second Rank fifty points, and a mid-stage Second Rank ten points. However, compared to collecting thirty trial medallions, accumulating one hundred Demon Beast Points seemed somewhat easier. This also meant that in this trial, hunting Demon Beasts was not the main theme; the main challenges would still be the battles among the many Princely Heirs, the skirmishes, and the snatch for trial medallions. “During the trial, intentional killing is strictly prohibited. If discovered, not only will the perpetrator be severely punished, but their family will also be permanently disqualified from the trial.” Elder Xi said these words while the three members from the Jun family couldn’t help but change their expressions. However, they were already aware of these rules; while strict, as long as they were careful to leave no trace, it would appear as a mere disappearance at most. Now, the Jun family had completely run out of patience with Ye Xuan. This Hundred Clans Trial was undoubtedly a perfect opportunity. As long as they handled it cleanly, even the Martial Sect Master backing Ye Xuan wouldn’t be able to find evidence. What could they possibly do to them then? “No more nonsense, I hereby announce, the current Hundred Clans Trial is officially starting!” “All the Princely Heirs participating in the trial, please head to the officer areas to receive your trial medallion, and then you may enter the trial grounds. Make sure to return here in fifteen days.” With a wave of his hand, Elder Xi then returned to his seat. As his words ended, the numerous Princely Heirs started bustling about; many gathered their trial medallions and began getting ready to enter the Panlong Mountain. There were five entrances to the Panlong Mountain, which avoided the situation where participants would all encounter each other upon entering the trial grounds. The trial medallion bore marks of the five entrances, and they could only choose the entrance marked on their medallion. Xia Xingyun and others, like Xia Xun, entered through a different entrance from Ye Xuan. Thus, as they entered, they gestured to Ye Xuan, and then they set off. “I should go too.” Ye Xuan spurred his Two-headed Demon Tiger and chose the corresponding third entrance, then swiftly rushed in. “This kid is lucky not to share an entrance with us.” Watching Ye Xuan’s disappearing figure, Jun Wuyan’s eyes flashed with a cold light. “The trial has just begun, why the rush? A cooked duck can’t fly away,” Jun Wuming still maintained a expressionless and stern face. “Brother is right. Moreover, we don’t need to make a move ourselves; this kid will already suffer a severe beating,” Jun Kui said coldly, then pointed toward Xie Cangsheng and others, where the latter wore a sly, triumphant smile, because the entrance he was assigned was exactly the one Ye Xuan had entered. “Haha, that kid is seeking his own death, offending Xie Cangsheng. We might not even need to take action, he is probably half dead by now.” Jun Wuyan’s lips curled into a frostily mocking smile; Xie Cangsheng’s need for retribution was excessive, and compared to him, it was more than sufficient. Considering the other’s demeanor, although he wouldn’t kill Ye Xuan, a brutal beating, leaving him crippled, was indeed inevitable.
