​

The Ximen Family Meet Tournament finally started...

All the people who came to watch the tournament was sitting on the sides of the training grounds. They surrounded the training grounds in a box formation. Inside this box was four huge stages(just imagine like in D-ball Z tournament, but four of them).

A middle-aged man then arrived while flying in a huge green sword in the air. He then jumped down to one of the stages then said

”I welcome everyone in our Ximen Family Meet tournament, I'm gonna explain the rules for this tournament” he then explained the tournament rules.

Each of the villages could send five of their youths to join this tournament. But since there were a lot of competitors joining this time, they are gonna separate the competitors in four blocks. The tournament is just simple, if you threw your enemy outside the stage, or if they surrendered, you'll advanced to the next round.

”Now I'm gonna tell you the rewards in this tournament, the top 20 youths will have their resources given to their villages doubled during this year. The top 3 could have a chance to learn our middle earth-grade martial skills, and the winner of the tournament could have a chance to learn a heaven-grade martial skill” the middle-aged man then said with his smile full of glee.

After he finished saying his words, the people in the stands gasped, even the guests from the other respected Sacred families exclaimed. They really didn't expect that the rumors said was true. They could only regret that they couldn't join the tournament and watch the competitors with envy.

The middle-aged man then continued to say that the competition would be divided into four blocks. In each block, the competitors would battle a one on one match. Once you lose, you'll be kicked out right away, since there were too many competitors this time and they needed to finish this event today. So there was no losers bracket. The sole winner of each block then would proceed to the finals battling the winners in the other blocks.

The tournament was quite simple and easy this time around, so the audience and competitors easily understood it. The tournament then started and the staffs went to the competitors to let them draw their blocks.

Kyle had drawn the block D, whilst Chi had drawn the block A. Kyle then went to the stage of block D. standing around the stage, Kyle could see the youths around it. They were ranging from 8th to 9th stage in cultivation. Kyle already knew that he would have no competition in this tournament, so he was quite bored.

But he wanted to get, or at least see that so-called 'Heaven grade martial skill', so he aimed to win this competition. But he was in a dilemma since the Ximen family would never hand it over a stranger. He knew the Ximen Family was only using it for something dangerous. like a big poisonous cake, waiting to be eaten. But Kyle wanted a piece of that cake despite being poisoned.

Since he doesn't know what they are scheming, and since he was confident with his strength. 'For starters, ill take the championship and see how they react.' Kyle thought while contemplating his decisions.

The battle was now ongoing, the youths were trying their very best. Kyle's turn to battle hasn't still arrived so he was calmly observing the stage while thinking about his future plans.

While observing the stage at block D, Kyle suddenly heard a commotion at the block A's area. So he looked towards it.

Block A

Tang Chi was now called by the referee to walked up to the stage. His first enemy was a 9th stage genius from one of the ten intermediate villages. When the audience saw this, they felt pity for the youth. But when the middle-aged man and the other elders around them saw him, were shocked. They didn't expect another genius to hail from one of the villages under him.

”Who is that youth, what's his background?” The middle-aged man asked the people around them.
