Martial Emperor Reborn(Completed) - C918 Shen-yi-tang
C918 Shen-yi-tang
The only change was that the angry roars of the four statues gradually died down. Soon after, the four statues returned to their previous state, as if nothing had happened.
What kind of situation was this? Why would the four great beasts be angry? If it was a provocation, then the person who was provoked should be punished, right? For a moment, the Everyone at the scene was filled with doubts.
Because of this, no one in the entire training field spoke. At this time, over ten thousand people in the training field were so quiet, one could even hear the sound of a needle dropping on the ground.
“If someone provokes, the seniors of the four great Fierce Beasts will definitely punish that person. However, no one has any problems, so what’s the situation?”
“Could it be that the four senior vicious beasts are not satisfied with today’s martial arts competition and want us to stop?”
“This is unknown. If the four great Fierce Beast seniors really had such thoughts, we would truly have to stop this kind of operation.”
At this moment, at the center of the training field, the gathered Elders were also whispering amongst themselves.
The four great vicious beasts were equivalent to their ancestors. If their ancestors truly had such an attitude, they naturally had to change.
Then they looked at one of them.
“Deputy, what should we do?” Then, they said these words almost in unison.
Since the sect leader wasn’t here, everything had to be decided by the vice head.
The Vice Sect Leader was a bald old man. Seeing that the gazes of the elders were all focused on him, he pondered for a moment before saying, “Then, allow me to communicate with the four ancestors of the vicious beasts.”
Although this sort of communication was extremely taxing on one’s spiritual will, if the four ferocious beasts decided to vent their anger on him, other unexpected things would happen.
However, the Vice Sect Leader had no other choice.
When they heard that he wanted to communicate with the four great vicious beasts, these elders immediately stopped talking. The rest of the people in the arena were the same. Everyone’s eyes were focused on the Deputy Sect Master.
The Vice Sect Leader sucked in a deep breath and then began to close his eyes. It seemed like he was closing his eyes, but from his expression, it was clear that he was doing something extremely strenuous.
A moment later, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
“Roar! Roar! Roar! Roar!”
After a short while, the air above the training field exploded with roars of four ferocious beasts.
The only difference was that the statues did not change this time.
Could it be that the four great vicious beasts’ predecessors were still dissatisfied? Hearing such an angry roar, the people from the ‘Devil Sect’ at the scene couldn’t help but be worried.
Fortunately, this sound soon disappeared and the entire training field regained its peace.
After a while, the Vice Sect Leader opened his eyes, but his body was covered in cold sweat. If it were anyone who didn’t know him, they would think that he had walked through the gates of hell.
“Vice Sect Leader, how is it?” When they saw the Vice Sect Leader open his eyes, the surrounding elders immediately asked.
“The four senior Fierce Beasts are indeed furious. It seems that someone has truly offended them.” The Vice Sect Leader replied.
“Who is so bold as to actually dare to provoke the four great fierce beasts in our Holy Gate’s headquarters?” When they heard the vice sect master say this, all of these elders cried out in anger.
“I don’t know. In short, the information the seniors of the four big Fierce Beasts sent back to me is very vague. I can only guess like that, and whether it is inconclusive like that. Due to the current state of the seniors, I do not dare to ask too much.” The Vice Sect Leader shook his head.
“Then what should we do?”
“Then is the competition going to continue any further?”
For a time, all of the Elders asked this question.
“Let the martial arts competition continue.” After pondering for a moment, the Vice Sect Leader said, “However, during this period of time, all of you will have to patrol the entire training grounds. If you discover any suspicious behavior or suspicious characters, immediately deal with them!”
“Yes sir!” The elders said in unison.
After that, they no longer stayed where they were. Instead, they walked back and forth across the entire training field. Not only them, but the other experts from the demonic sects were the same as well.
If someone dared to challenge their authority in the Devil Sect’s main base, they would never let that person go.
“I really did not expect such a thing to happen today.”
“Could it be that someone is really here to provoke our Holy Gate?”
“In my opinion, the probability of this happening is very low. After all, this is our Holy Gate’s headquarters. If someone were to really cause trouble here, even if they had wings, it would be difficult to escape.”
Waiting for the matter to calm down, the people from the Devil Sect started to discuss among themselves.
How would they know that the reason why these four fierce beasts were enraged was only because Lin Long had made contact with them with his mind?
Lin Long’s divine will was strong, so he could naturally feel it from a deeper level. When he discovered that his divine will was probing, the four ferocious beasts naturally became furious.
Furthermore, because Lin Long’s telepathic thoughts were strong, they seemed to have come and gone without a trace, so the four ferocious beasts did not discover him. In the end, they even had the misconception that he was not being probed by the telepathic thoughts.
It was because of this that the information they sent to the Sect Leader was very vague.
This was the Devil Sect’s main altar, so exposing himself would be disadvantageous for him. Moreover, he felt that no matter how he tried to sense them, he wouldn’t be able to get any useful information from them, so Lin Long temporarily gave up on this idea.
Of course, the time was ripe. He didn’t mind giving these four ferocious beasts some face.
After a period of time, he was sure that nothing would happen, and that the tournament would officially begin.
Although it was called a martial arts competition, it was actually conducted in a few different regions. For example, the Eagle Hall belonged to the Southwest region.
The reason for doing this was because there were too many people, and the people from the Devil Sect didn’t think that they would really let the contestants get a spot in the competition.
In short, it was just to select the right candidates to enter the main arena.
There were a total of four regions. The southwest region’s competition was to the southwest of the training grounds.
Although there were more people, more than twenty of them, Eagle Hall only had five participants this time.
Of course, if Yang Feiyu was still there, it would be six people.
Lin Long and Lu Lingling were two of the five.
The competition had not even started, when an elder standing opposite of them said to Lu Zhiyi proudly, “Hall Master Lu, didn’t your sect’s Yang Feiyu have great talent? Why did he not participate in this competition? Could it be that your Eagle Hall is afraid of our Shen-Yi-tang, and because we have joined the Southwest region this time, you don’t even dare to send out your core disciples, you’re afraid of being interrupted by our Shen-Yi-tang?”
“Elder Shen, if you speak of such a truth, Pavilion Master Lu’s complexion will turn awful.”
“So what if Pavilion Master Lu’s expression is ugly? Who asked his disciples under the Eagle Hall to be so weak?”
“Elder Shen is right, hahaha.”
The moment the old man finished speaking, the people beside him immediately responded.
“Elder Shen, the competition has not started yet, stop boasting, otherwise you will be slapped in the face!” Usually, he did not follow the right path with these people, but now that the other party mocked him in front of the crowd, he naturally wanted to retort back.
If it was in the past, he wouldn’t be so confident, but this time was different. His “Sect” had a monster like Lin Long.
Because of this thought, he was now even glad that he was threatened by Lin Long.
Of course, although Lin Long was strong, he was still worried. After all, Lin Long had been cultivating the devil arts for a while.
“Junior-apprentice Brother Lin, the people opposite us are from the Shen-Yi-tang, and they were at odds with us in the past. However, they are not in the Southwest region, and do not have much direct contact with us in the Eagle Hall, but this time, because they have a few disciples who are proud of themselves, in order to deal with and humiliate us, they actually moved the location of their branch to the Southwest. It is because of this, they are together with us.” Lu Lingling then explained in Lin Long’s ears.
Hearing Lu Lingling’s words, Lin Long couldn’t help but find it funny. In his opinion, Lu Zhiyi had stolen her wife, otherwise how could she even do something like moving her to another place?
“Junior brother, their Shen-Yi-tang really has a few powerful people. So, you have to be careful.” Then, Lu Lingling reminded her again.
“Mm, got it.” Lin Long nodded.
Seeing that Lin Long seemed to take her words to heart, Lu Lingling was pleased, but how could she know that Lin Long did not even put any Shen-Yi-tang in his eyes?
After a while, the competition in the Southwest region officially began.
As one of the four major districts in the Southwest, there were quite a number of branch halls, more than fifty in total. Each branch hall had four to eight people participating, making it a total of three hundred people.
Of course, such a scale was more than enough for the Southwest region which accounted for a quarter of the entire training grounds.
Because of the large number of people and the disparity in strength, one’s future wasn’t determined by a single competition. In general, this was determined by strength.
The judges were naturally the elders who had acted as referees.
Of course, a single match could determine one’s future, and that was to be seriously injured or crippled. In that case, even if the opponent’s strength had been quite good, they would not have been taken in as disciples.
Lu Zhiyi and the rest of the Eagle Hall were worried about this situation, although there were a lot of people, but as the competition progressed, they would meet other people from the opposing halls.
At that time, this would happen if the other party were to make a move.
As fists and feet have no eyes, swords and sabers are merciless, if the situation was not very obvious, the elder beside him would not judge the other party for violation of the rules.
Even if it was against the rules, if you were seriously injured or crippled, you would not be able to obtain the mercy of the devil sect.
In short, everything was based on results.
