16 Preliminary (1/2)

In the Yue clan's castle, the new year tournament had officially begun.

The Yue clan had already completed its grand opening ceremony.

The emperor Jun Wu You and the clan master Elder Yue Hai had each given a brief speech, and the various representatives had also ceremonially paid their respects to each other.

The First round of preliminaries was quite boring, at least in Yue Yang's opinion.

It can't be helped though since the strengths of these younger generations were between level 1 [Apprentice] to level 3 [Hero] with age range between 10 to 20 years old.

The older the members were, the most their advantages apparent in term of cultivations, though some freak like Princess Qian Qian and Xue Tan Lang was destroying this common sense.

Those two people already managed to defeat the older members of Yue clan with variety of combat technique and summoned beasts.

Based on Yue Yang's observations, even though both of them were merely at 10 years old, they already had combat strength equivalent to level 3 [Hero].

Not to mention both of them were chosen prodigy from both Royal family and Xue clan, thus they should possessed some trump card that at least will be able to defeat level 4 [Champion].

The audiences from both great clans or Da Xia cultivators were dazzled by their performances. Even though right now both of them were very weak compared to older members with cultivation above level 5 [Grandmaster], the fact that both of them managed to possessed this kind of strength at mere 10 years old already quite stupefying already.

Princess Qian Qian show variety of sword technique with a greatsword, making the audiences speechless seeing a little girl swinging a sword that was bigger than her own body.

If Princess Qian Qian's battle style was more of brutal strength, Xue Tan Lang's battle style was more of speed and freezing.

His movement speed alone was already very fast, but he can also freeze his opponents to immobilize them or at least slow them down, thus made the difference in their speed became more apparent.

Facing Xue Tan Lang's high speed coupled with his freezing ability will be enough to made his opponents frustrated, more than against Princess Qian Qian, since most opponents will not even be able to retaliate.

At least against Princess Qian Qian, her opponents could at least save some face by showing their combat technique to the audience, though as a price, they will be more injured because of Princess Qian Qian's greatsword.

The spectators can't help but sigh since the performance of those two childs that managed to overshadow Yue clan's younger generations even though this was Yue clan's new year tournament.

It really can't be helped though, after all Princess Qian Qian received the tutelage of two Heavenly Imperial Guardians whom both an Innate Rankers.

As for Xue Tan Lang, he was a proud disciple of one of the Four Great Sects, the Eastern Ocean Crystal Palace.

Meanwhile, compared to dazzling performances of Princess Qian Qian and Xue Tan Lang, Yue Yang's battle style could only be said as ordinary.

It can't be helped though, since Yue Yang merely used [Basic Blade Technique], thus made the majority of common spectators thought that Yue Yang was weaker than both Princess Qian Qian and Xue Tan lang.

It was different case for the expert. Although the technique that was displayed by Yue Yang was quite ordinary looking, the executions of each technique was very précised with no wasted movements and strengths.

After all, Yue Yang already master this [Basic Blade Technique] to perfection since he always trained it in this one year, not to mention he also always applied this technique in the spar against Esdeath.
