Sovereign to Immortality

Chapter 797 – Probing

Strictly speaking, this was not the first time that the Yang family had made a mass selection within their control. In fact, the Yang Family had already made two similar attempts in the past few years.

The first time, because it was the first time Yang family had organized such a large-scale event, he did not have enough experience to make a lot of mistakes. On the first time, because it was the first time Yang family had organized such a large-scale event, he did not have enough experience to make a lot of mistakes.

During the second time, the influence of the Madame Yang was increasing, and her control of the place was becoming more and more powerful. Local level villages all approved of the Yang family, and this time, the elite disciples that came out from different places, whether in terms of cultivation or strength, had all surpassed him.

Moreover, in the first round of selection, in order to avoid the joke of the first Large Competition, the seemingly fair selection had actually caused four outer sect disciples to draw together. This way, at least two outer sect disciples would be able to enter the second round of challenges.

Unfortunately, at that time, the number of outer sect disciples, including the Yang family’s cultivators, totalled 64. Although after the first round, four disciples from other clans had passed, but after the second round, only one remained in the top 16.

This showed that after years of carefully nurturing, the strength of the Yang’s Diciples had undoubtedly surpassed the disciples of the other families, but it still made the cultivators in the towns and cities under the control of the Madame Yang feel greatly discouraged, thinking that this was just a method the Madame Yang used to win the hearts of the people, but in reality, all the benefits belonged to the Yang family.

Because of this, in order to hold the third Elite Tournament and dispel the worries of the cultivators from the towns of Mengyu and Hu Yao, the Yang family had no choice but to offer rewards to those villages which could cultivate outstanding disciples in the tournament.

In these few years, the Yang family had striven to improve himself and his position in the cultivation world of the Yuzhou had become more and more stable. In just a short period of time, just from the great victory of the twelve true demon peaks, it was said that all the cultivation resources were transported back to the Wasteland Town from the roads that were specially opened in the Tuo Wu Shan. It had taken three days and three nights, not to mention the fact that the truly valuable things had probably already been brought back by the Yang family using magic treasures.

Thus, under the drive of all sorts of benefits, all the local villages all selected their most outstanding disciples to participate in the town competition. After that, the various guardians and city guards would recommend these most talented disciples to the Wasteland Town s.

Originally, with his cultivation level at the realms of life, even if he did not sleep for dozens of days, it was nothing. However, handling these family matters made his mind feel extremely tired.

Peng Shitong saw that he was sitting there motionlessly, and his expression was filled with exhaustion. He could not help but feel his heart ache, and personally brewed a pot of hot tea and brought it over.

Yang Junping received a cup of hot tea from his wife and laughed: “Where are the children?

Peng Shitong laughed, “The two of them have been acting very secretive these few days, and have disappeared in the early morning. It is said that they came because their families have a lot of cultivators from different sects, and the two of them often disguised themselves as boys and maids to see the cultivators from different sects.”

Yang Junping was slightly dissatisfied, he said: “These two brats have only just opened their dantian, they are not training at home properly, why are they running all over the place, what is there to look at, isn’t his father me? His uncle is also a dignified Heavenly Dipper Sovereign. ”

Speaking till this point, Yang Junping turned his gun: “You, the mother, is right. I have been so busy these past few days that my feet have not even touched the ground, yet you have neglected to discipline them, instead, you have treated them too unrestrainedly, thinking back to when big brother and I were at their age, and could already take charge of one side at home, and big brother had even cultivated more than one spiritual technique. Their talent is not inferior to ours, and their cultivation conditions are completely different, how did their cultivation end up behind us?”

Yang Junping was furious for no reason, but Peng Shitong understood his personality and comforted him, “The situation is different. You can’t compare Xi Er and Yao’er to Big Brother, and furthermore, the two of them just opened their dantian, so they can relax for a few days. It’s good for them to see these high order cultivatos well.”

Yang Junping also knew that his anger was unfounded, but most of the reason was because his heart was filled with worry due to the myriad of things that his family had to do in the past few days. However, a little face of a man still made him grunt, and he said: “Anyway, don’t let them relax too much, in the next few days, the elite competition is going to start, let them take a look at their own differences, and tell them, that in the elite competition three years from now, if the two of them can’t become the elite disciples of his clan, then get the hell out of Xishan Village and go look at the shops in the county.”

After making a few harsh remarks, Yang Junping caught his breath, thought about the gift boxes that were piled up in the living room when he first entered, and asked: “Someone else delivered gifts to our doorstep?”

Peng Shitong made a sound of agreement, then laughed: “Not bad, I have a lot of them. They are all related to each other.

Yang Junping nodded his head, and said: “In a hurry, we will send them all to the clan’s treasury, and have Sixth Uncle register them as part of the treasury.

Peng Shitong covered his mouth and laughed. Yang Junping looked at her and asked in puzzlement, “This isn’t the first time you’re doing this, what are you laughing at?”

Peng Shitong laughed, “Do you know how the clansmen outside evaluate the three leaders of your families?”

Yang Junping became interested, and asked: “What do you mean?”

Peng Shitong said: The clan members say that we need to go through the back door to ask the clan leader and his son to do something, my father will not take any responsibility from you, and as for brother, you should return the favor straight away, but as long as you are here, we should do whatever you want, we should not meet you.

Peng Shitong had not finished speaking when he had already “haha”.

Seeing that Yang Junping’s mood had improved, Peng Shitong asked again without thinking, “I heard that Brother Bao Zhang’s injuries were healed a few years ago. All these years, there was no movement, but because of the previous failure, he lost his confidence.

Yang Junping retracted his smile when he heard this, glanced at her, and said: “Did the news from the family spread to you?”

Peng Shitong naturally would not hide it from him, and calmly said: “A few clan elders have come to discuss, to see if they can relax the spots for the core disciples. After all, even if they are core disciples, because their cultivation levels are different, the cultivation resources provided by the clan are divided into different levels.

Yang Junping laughed coldly: “Hehe, are you trying to test me? When Father and Big Brother were taking care of the family’s affairs, no one had ever dared to let out such rumors. Those few so-called elders were just some people that used them as a spear. ”

Peng Shitong nodded, and said: “Looks like you’ve long since had a plan in your heart.”

“This matter is not as simple as just these cultivation resources!”

Yang Junping looked at her, and sighed: “Perhaps this is the weakness of the clan compared to the sect, because of the bloodline, the clan is more united, but at the same time, they will also become more xenophobic!”

Yang Junping paused for a moment before continuing, “Why do Father and Big Brother want to facilitate the elite competition’s twelve cities and two cities to have twenty-eight cultivators with different surnames join? The reason was to break this kind of narrow-minded bloodline support. Not only must Yang’s Diciples keep the people from his area of influence in a tolerant manner, he must also prevent the Yang’s Diciples from being immersed in the glory of a famous clan or clan. He must always use his open mind and attitude to attract true talent for himself. ”

“But the Yang family has only been rising for a few years, and there are already people who can’t wait to jump out and say yes, they want to discriminate against us, the three of us. Isn’t this just slapping our faces at the Elite Tournament?!”

“Exclusive?” Peng Shitong was a little confused.

Yang Junping nodded his head, and said: “Su Baozhang’s surname is Su, and he does not have the surname Yang, unless he can become the Yang Family’s son-in-law.”

Peng Shitong’s face slightly changed, and said: “You mean to say ….”

“Brother Bao Zhang was actually accompanying his wife all these years.....”

Han Xiusheng was now already at the late stage of the fourth stage of the martial arts realm, but he knew that once he reached this stage, his cultivation would be at the pinnacle in this lifetime. The reason he was able to advance to the fourth stage was because of his elder sister and brother-in-law’s secret assistance.

Unexpectedly, his two sons were not suitable for cultivation either. With the help of his status as the shopkeeper of Yang family’s caravan and the status as the Yang family’s patriarch’s wife and brother, he had barely been able to raise his two sons’ cultivation to martial arts realm, then he gave up.

Fortunately, as a cultivator at the late stage of the martial arts realm, Han Xiusheng had a lifespan of at least two hundred years. Even though he was already close tundred years old, he still looked to be in high spirits.

Han Qianfeng’s aptitude was considered not bad, but his character was not very good. Han Xiusheng had always wanted to take shortcuts due to his small intelligence, and spent a lot of effort on this grandson, not hesitating to use his identity to pluck many heaven and earth treasures from the big tree of the Yang family for this grandson’s use.

However, his foundation was not too solid, and his strength was barely considered average among the disciples of the same age in the Madame Yang. With this kind of strength, there was no hope of winning over the elite disciples, and even the elite selection from the very beginning would probably be difficult.

Not only did he manage to transfer Han Qianfeng’s identity from the Yang’s Diciples to one of the elite seeds of the Wilderness Town, he had even seen an opportunity when he was drawing lots to take care of the elite seeds of other families in the previous Elite Tournament. After sending a considerable amount of Jade Coins to a certain Yang Family cultivator who was in charge of drawing lots, he had obtained the promise of drawing a good lot for his own grandson.

The drawing of lots for the Elite Tournament had already begun, and all the lots for the upcoming match were placed on the high platform. Under the gazes of everyone, they were drawn out and announced loudly, and from time to time, some cultivators responded loudly.

“At the very least, you have to pass through the first round. If you can pass the second round, that would be even better. At the very least, I, your grandfather, would be shameless enough to go beg your great-aunt or big uncle Jun Shan!”

Han Xiusheng said in a low voice to Han Qianfeng, who was about to participate in the drawing of lots.

Han Qianfeng already knew that his grandfather had paved a path for him ahead of time. His heart was already brimming with confidence, and hearing Han Xiusheng’s instructions, seemed like a nagging session, he absentmindedly replied, “I understand, I understand. Elder, you can rest assured. I will definitely pass this round!”

Han Qianfeng’s voice was not soft, and the surrounding Yang’s Diciples who were familiar with him all shouted out witrace of contempt and ridicule when they heard his words.

Unexpectedly, these gazes made Han Qianfeng feel even more pleased: “A bunch of bumpkins, although many of you have the surname of Yang, but my grandfather’s big sister is the clan leader of the Madame Yang, Spiritual Master Yang Tiangang. I call the renowned Spiritual Master of the Jun Shan as Big Uncle, and now that I call the person in charge of the Yang family as Second Uncle, your cultivations are higher than me, so what if your surname is Yang?

Han Qianfeng was daydreaming about those Yang Family disciples who were stronger than him and were ranked below him in the Large Competition. Then, he would be personally instructed by his aunt grandfather, Spiritual Master Jun Shan and the others.

Han Qianfeng, who was immersed in his fantasies, suddenly felt that his surroundings had quieted down. When Han Qianfeng came back to his senses, he saw that the surrounding people were all looking at him.

When Han Qianfeng raised his head to look at the stage, he saw the Madame Yang cultivator who had “befriended” his grandfather staring at the jade slip in his hands with a face full of uncertainty.

“Oh, you got me, huh? Hehe, let me see which unlucky bastard is weaker than me. Looking at the surrounding bastards’ strange faces, I’m afraid they’re all envious of this young master’s good luck. Speaking of which, it’s even with grandfather’s help …”

The excited Han Qianfeng turned his head to look at his grandfather, only to see that Han Xiusheng’s expression was so dark that it seemed as if water was about to drip out of it. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novelenglish.net . Fɪre

“W-what’s wrong? Grandfather’s expression doesn’t look right …”

Han Qianfeng finally felt something amiss. He no longer paid attention to the gazes of the surrounding people that were looking at him, and abruptly looked towards the stage.

“Who was the other person that was shouted out by the drawing of lots just now?”

A young man of about his age, dressed in black, calmly walked up to the stage and took the stiff jade lot from the Madame Yang cultivator in charge of drawing the lots. Then, he glanced down at the dumbstruck and trembling Han Qianfeng.

“I... “F * ck …” Su … Su Changan?! ”
