Book 5 Chapter 71 [Sweep Away Inner Court]
Hunting Compet.i.tion
At the eastern part of Sky Martial Continent, there were three big empires. Nangong Empire, Imperial Wind Empire, and Netherworld Empire.
Inside this three big empires, there are four major forces. Nangong Aristocratic Family, Imperial Wind Pavilion, Netherworld Palace, and Hidden Medicine Mountain Village.
The four major forces Alliances already exist for several hundred years, and every three years they conducted ”Hunting Compet.i.tion” to develop friendly relations, in fact, they compete fiercely in secret.
In fact, Hunting Compet.i.tion was to hunt and kill Demon Beast, and each force can send five disciples to partic.i.p.ate. However, the disciples who partic.i.p.ate must be between Martial Sovereign levels.
The reason why they make this rule because within three big empires Demon Beast rank relatively low, a slightly stronger only Sovereign rank Demon Beast.
Although there was G.o.d rank Demon Beast, but it was exceedingly rare, so in order to make the hunting more interesting, they choose a Martial Sovereign level disciple.
And the place for this Hunting Compet.i.tion is between three big empires, a large mountain called ”Demon Beast mountain”.
Just like its name Demon Beast mountain, there is a lot of aggressive Demon Beast inside the mountain, and commonly the Demon Beast level was Sovereign rank. Therefore, here is the best place for Hunting Compet.i.tion.
At this moment at Imperial Wind Empire above the sky of Demon Beast Mountain, an unusual ma.s.sive Demon Beast incredibly fast flew.
This was a Sovereign rank Demon Beast. Its size is huge, and had extremely fast flying speed because its outward appearance resembles ”Eagle”, therefore it was called ”Fast Eagle Beast”.
On the other hand, this Fast Eagle Beast is quite docile, after going through training, it can be used as transportation.
However, because this Fast Eagle Beast is very rare. Therefore inside these three big empires only four big forces able to have Fast Eagle Beast.
This time there is a group of Imperial Wind Pavilion people riding on this Fast Eagle Beast body to go to the Hunting Compet.i.tion.
This time Imperial Wind Pavilion sent five disciples to partic.i.p.ate Hunting Compet.i.tion.
Ranked second in the elite list, Inner Court Second Elder disciple, an Intermediate Rank Martial Sovereign ”Hu Bin”.
A Beautiful woman who ranked third, an Intermediate Rank Martial Sovereign ”Zhao Yue”
A fat brother who ranked forth, an Intermediate rank Martial Sovereign ”Gao Hao”
A thin brother who ranked fifth, a preliminary rank Martial Sovereign ”Ma Qiang”
And Xing Jue ranked sixth because he defeated Gao Le, thus he replaced Gao Le.
And the one who led them, Inner Court Great Elder ”Luo Tengyun”
At this moment Great Elder sat at the most front of Fast Eagle Beast, while Xing Jue sat at Great Elder side, talked and laughed cheerfully with Great Elder.
”Great Elder, this Hunting Compet.i.tion, held once every three years, so who has won the first place last time?” Xing Jue curiously asked.
”This Hunting Compet.i.tion had several hundred year history. Until now its already held more than hundred times, but each time the result almost the same.”
”Nangong Aristocratic Family always at the first place, the second place was my Imperial Wind Pavilion, third and fourth place was Netherworld Palace and Hidden Medicine Mountain Village in turn.” Great Elder laughed and explained.
”In this thousand years, our Imperial Wind Pavilion never won the first place?” Xing Jue asked again.
”Yes, in truth, Nangong Aristocratic Family strength is deep and immeasurable, event their Younger Generations put a pressured to our Imperial Wind Pavilion side.” Great Elder appeared somewhat helpless.
”Oh?” After hearing Great Elder words, Xing Jue somewhat doubted it. Previously, when he was in Hidden Medicine Mountain Village, he already experienced Nangong Aristocratic Family disciple strength wasn't very strong.
”Hehe, Xing Jue, don't look down upon Nangong Aristocratic Family, although your talent is extraordinary, but Nangong Aristocratic Family never lacked a genius outstanding disciple.”
”Especially twenty years ago, a person appeared from Nangong Aristocratic Family, she can be called a monstrous level disciple, her growth rate makes people ashamed.”
”Now her achievement unmatched even in my entire Imperial Wind Pavilion.” Saw Xing Jue somewhat uncertain, Great Elder reminds him again.
”A monstrous talent disciple?” When heard this, Xing Jue started to treated ”Nangong Aristocratic Family” more seriously.
Twenty years ago a monstrous talent disciple appeared, and in twenty years that disciple finally matured, there is no one in Imperial Wind Pavilion can be a match for her, that practice talent, Xing Jue felt awe.
”Yes, but your girlfriend ”Li Xiaohan” actually can be equal with her.” Great Elder looked toward Xing Jue again and said with a smile.
”Er... hehe” After hearing Great Elder words, Xing Jue laughed foolishly, indeed Xiaohan practice talent is somewhat terrifying.
”Humph! This boy flattering skill wasn't simple.” When Xing Jue chatted with Great Elder, Hu Bin who sat at the back whispered in a soft voice and stared Xing Jue with hatred eyes.
”Are you jealous?” And these words were heard by rank third on the elite list ”Zhao Yue”, then sarcastically said.
”Ridiculous! Why I jealous of him?” Hu Bin replied with displeasure.
