When the first day of maneuvers was over, the audience and every clan dispersed to their respective clans, including the Silver Body Clan. However, just as everyone was about to leave the maneuver arena, a voice suddenly called out.
"Clan Leader Song-Lang!"
Huh...?
Ah!!!
"Flaming Dawn Clan Leader!" Song-Lang exclaid in surprise when he turned around and saw that the person calling him was the Flaming Dawn Clan Leader. He quickly composed himself and offered a humble greeting.
"Respect, Clan Leader ng-Jie," Song-Lang said, clasping his hands.
"Oh! Clan Leader Song-Lang, you're too formal. I didn't expect the Silver Body Clan to have such strong youths. Even the Clan Leader has grown much stronger," ng-Jie said with a sly grin.
"Clan Leader ng-Jie is too kind. The Silver Body Clan's youths can't compare to your Flaming Dawn Clan's youths. As for , I've just beco a little stronger," Song-Lang replied humbly, fully aware that the other party was much stronger than him.
This scene attracted the attention of many clans because the leader of the Flaming Dawn Clan—the city's number one clan and the strongest leader after the city governor—had personally approached the Silver Body Clan, the lowest-ranking clan. Naturally, everyone was curious about what they were discussing.
In the Flaming Dawn Clan area...
"Why did the clan leader talk to that nobody?"
"I don't know. Do you think they annoyed the clan leader?"
"Look at their faces! They look like mountain monkeys who've found food!"
"Haha! It's normal. Not everyone gets to be close to our clan leader. It's already an honor for those scum that he even approached them."
The youths gossiped about the incident, wondering why their clan leader had approached such a low-ranking clan. Their gazes were filled with contempt because they belonged to the number one clan and held themselves in high esteem.
Back to the Silver Body Clan...
"I wonder what Clan Leader ng-Jie wants from our clan?" Song-Lang thought, knowing that ng-Jie must have had a specific reason for talking to him.
"Hahaha, Leader Song-Lang, you're overthinking it. I just ca to greet fellow residents of the sa city. There's nothing more to it," ng-Jie laughed heartily, explaining his reason for coming over. However, in truth, he wanted to take a closer look at a few young n.
His attention was focused on Zheng-Fu and Jin-Tian, who were at the very back of the group. Zheng-Fu noticed ng-Jie's gaze but pretended to ignore it, knowing that any reaction would only give ng-Jie what he wanted.
'This young man is truly extraordinary. He remains calm even though I've been staring at him openly from the start. And that other young man with the proportional build—there's sothing about him that he's hiding.
It might be connected to the rapid growth of the Silver Body Clan's strength during this period,' ng-Jie thought to himself, piecing together the various clues to form a complete picture. Even if it was just an idea, there was a significant chance it was correct.
After exchanging greetings, ng-Jie returned to his area and led his mbers back to their clan. Similarly, the Silver Body Clan, not wishing to linger, was promptly led back by Song-Lang.
The next day's competition would be another group contest like today, but only two hundred qualifiers would remain. In each of the ten maneuver arenas, the hundred survivors from today would fight each other, with only twenty qualifying for the finals.
However, the tenth maneuver arena had only twelve people left, all mbers of the Silver Body Clan. As there were fewer than twenty contestants, they could pass through the second round without any competition.
This was the first ti sothing like this had happened at the competitive rally. Normally, all ten maneuver arenas would have an equal number of contestants left, requiring them to fight for a spot in the final round. But this ti, the Silver Body Clan had done sothing no one expected.
As a result, the second day at the tenth maneuver arena was as silent as a cetery. The competition continued only in the nine other maneuver arenas, while the Silver Body Clan did not attend the event at all.
This was because Zheng-Fu had instructed Song-Lang not to bring anyone to the event. Instead, he planned to increase the clan mbers' strength by giving each youth and clan mber high-level Qi energy stones to absorb.
This news brought imnse joy to everyone in the Silver Body Clan. The desire to watch the maneuvers was quickly forgotten, as raising their cultivation level was ten tis more important. They knew the competitive rally would be held again, and they could watch it then.
A day passed...
Finally, the final round of maneuvers had arrived. The mbers of the Silver Body Clan were feeling ready and excited. Advancing to the finals ant their clan was already in the top two hundred.
Today, besides the various clans in the city, important figures had also co, such as representatives from the Enchanted Monster Tavern, the Mo-Qing Chamber of Comrce, the Central Bank of Ten Thousand Monsters Huang-Di City Branch, the Sky Monster dicine Hall, and the Blood Fog Armant Store. All the major powers in the city were present.
In addition to the city's residents, people from outside the city had also co. Since the rally was open to the public, mbers of the Monster Tribe from other places could watch by purchasing an entrance ticket. Qi-Luo-Qing was also in attendance, not as Dan-Ge's niece, but in her capacity as the Fourteenth Princess.
Surrounding her were highly skilled guards and a few palace attendants, including a young woman and two elders.
In the special seating area for Dan-Ge and the Fourteenth Princess...
"Uncle, are you saying that the Silver Body Clan defeated over three hundred opponents within half an incense stick without getting hurt at all?" Luo-Qing asked in shock when she heard about the first day of the Competitive Rally involving the Silver Body Clan.
She knew how weak the Silver Body Clan was and was familiar with Diao and Den. These two young n hadn't been that strong. But to her surprise, they had significantly increased their strength after not seeing each other for the past month!
The change was so drastic that she couldn't help but wonder if it was due to the two mysterious young n who had helped strengthen the brothers. However, she couldn't find any concrete reason to confirm that Zheng-Fu and Jin-Tian were responsible. So, she could only ponder the question with suspicion.
At that mont, a srizingly beautiful voice rang out. "Younger Sister, where is the young man you always ntioned?" asked the young woman accompanying Luo-Qing, her face covered by a veil, in a slightly teasing tone.
"Elder Sister, what are you talking about!? I only said he looked good!" Luo-Qing imdiately turned around, defending herself against the young woman's teasing. The young man she had ntioned was Jin-Tian, who had caused her heart to flutter.
"Hehe… I was just teasing you. Why are you getting angry? Or are you…" the young woman continued teasing Luo-Qing, clearly enjoying it.
"Hmph! I'm not talking to you anymore, Elder Sister. But what about your man? If he knew you were here today, wouldn't he co and cause trouble? If he does, this event will be ruined," Luo-Qing retorted, shifting the topic to the man who had been annoying her elder sister.
"Hmph! If he dares to cause trouble here, Uncle will beat him until he can't find his way ho!" Dan-Ge, sitting beside her, spoke angrily about that young man, knowing exactly who Luo-Qing was referring to.
"Thank you so much, Uncle Dan-Ge, for your support. But if he shows up, I'll deal with him myself," the young woman said, her voice cold and terrifying despite her displeasure.
"Sigh... I really want to et this brother-in-law that Elder Sister talks about. I wonder what kind of person he is to make my sister fall so deeply in love. Even a mighty clan's splendid master can't compare to him," Luo-Qing mused, curious about the man her elder sister often ntioned.
Ahem!!!
"Fourteenth Princess, you shouldn't be talking about that. You know it's forbidden by His Majesty, the Monster King," one of the elders sitting behind the young woman spoke sternly.
"That's right, Fourteenth Princess. You know well that this topic is forbidden. Even as a princess, you might be punished by His Majesty," the other elder chid in, supporting his colleague.
"Tch! What do you know about love? You've never been in love, so you wouldn't understand. Besides, Father wouldn't punish for talking about it!" Luo-Qing retorted angrily after hearing the elders' words.
"Luo-Qing! You shouldn't speak so disrespectfully to the elders. Apologize to them imdiately!" Dan-Ge's face turned pale as he heard Luo-Qing's tone. He knew how strong and important these two elders were.
Tsk!!!
