C293 Genius battle (1/2)

It was on the fifth day after had jointly annihilated Ning Clan and Ning Clan that, in other words, half a month after his return.

The City Lord Palace suddenly released a public announcement, that the once a year competition of geniuses in the Hun Tian City would begin in a day.

In the end, the top three would receive the rewards from the City Lord Palace. This was also a competition that the City Lord Palace had set up to encourage the young generation.

And last year, because Ye Xingchen left, he did not succeed.

Originally, the City Lord Palace wanted to postpone the competition, but after discussing it with the Alchemist Association and Heavenly Profound Chamber of Commerce, they decided to proceed as scheduled.

After the announcement of the City Lord Palace, at the same time, the City Lord Palace received the leaders of the five forces, Lin Tianhu, Ye Yuanshan and the rest.

He informed them that a temporary ceasefire would be established once the genius battle was over.

The five of them also reached an agreement, they wouldn't make a move during the genius battle.

At the very least, he would be able to relax for many days, and he would not have to worry about someone from the The Three Forces knocking on his door.

And on the streets of Hun Tian City, everyone was talking about the arrival of the tournament of geniuses. It was because if one wanted to be famous, the tournament of geniuses was a good shortcut.

Many clans, whether they were large or small, would rub their fists and wipe their palms, preparing to send out their most outstanding disciples to participate in the tournament.

There were no restrictions to participating in the genius competition. As long as one dared to sign up, they could participate. After rounds of selection, the top ten would be decided.

Ning Clan, Conference Room.

Ning Shaoyun sat on the chair with a thoughtful expression, Ning Fengxue sat quietly to the side, and the other elders sat on their chairs.

After a long while, a smile appeared on Ning Shaoyun's face. He looked at Ning Fengxue, and said while chuckling: ”Snow Wind, you have heard about the genius competition this time, right?”

Ning Fengxue nodded, and said: ”I understand, father.”

Ning Fengxue had always remembered last year's tournament, because in last year's tournament, he lost to his nemesis, Lin Hua, in the finals, allowing Lin Hua to get first place. Although he got second, he was still far from first place.

Everyone was talking about the first place's Lin Hua, but no one talked about the second place's Ning Fengxue.

Seeing Ning Fengxue's expression change, Ning Shaoyun nodded his head, ”Snow Wind, this is our Ning Family's chance. If you display your astonishing talent in the competition and get the City Lord Palace to acknowledge you, and have a relationship with the City Lord Palace, they might appear to protect our Ning Clan at that time.”

Hearing Ning Shaoyun's words, all the elders turned to look at Ning Fengxue, as they thought this was an opportunity.

”But Ye Xingchen...” Ning Fengxue's face was a little ugly, as he said softly.

He still had not walked out from the shadow of Ye Xingchen's defeat. The moment he thought of Ye Xingchen defeating him in one move, he became extremely agitated.

Ning Shaoyun gently shook his head, and then mysteriously said: ”I will pass down a treasure to your family. With him, you don't have to worry about Ye Xingchen at all.

A family heirloom treasure? After Ning Fengxue heard it, his eyes shot out a ray of golden light, and anxiously asked: ”Father, can you really let me use it?”

Of course, Ning Fengxue knew what the Ning Family's heirloom treasure was. If he had his family's heirloom, he was very confident that he would be able to defeat Ye Xingchen.

Ning Shaoyun nodded heavily.

When Ning Fengxue saw this, his face finally revealed a slight smile, and said: ”Father, don't worry. This time, I will definitely trample Ye Xingchen beneath my feet.”

At the same time, all of the families were nervously preparing, as they all wanted their most outstanding disciple to obtain a good ranking in the tournament.

And within the Ye Family Manor, inside Ye Xingchen's courtyard.

Lin Qian and Ye Xingchen were sitting on a stone bench in the center of the courtyard, reminiscing about old times.

After a year of not seeing him, Lin Qian had not changed, but Ye Xingchen had become unfathomably deep.

Lin Qian gently sipped on the tea on the stone table as a smile appeared on his face. Looking at Ye Xingchen, he said in a low voice: ”Elder Brother Ye, it's been a year but you've already reached the Grandmaster Stage.

”Brother Lin, you don't need to blame yourself. In the journey of cultivation, you must always maintain a calm mind. Once there is any change in your mood, you will stop cultivating.” Ye Xingchen said while laughing.

Forget it, just let nature take its course. That's right, Elder Brother Ye, you will definitely participate in tomorrow's tournament, right? ” Lin Qian shook his head helplessly and asked.

Ye Xingchen had also heard of this genius competition, he nodded and said: ”I will participate.”

Actually, Ye Xingchen did not want to participate in battles of this level, but Ye Yuanshan had talked to Ye Xingchen before.

Everything was for the clan, in the end, Ye Xingchen decided to participate.

”En, you will definitely get first place. There is no suspense at all.” Lin Qian nodded heavily, and said loudly.
