It’s too difficult to cultivate monsters, so I’ll just farm monsters.

The long mountain road is bustling with people.

There were many more people participating in the Zhu family's ancestor worship than expected, far more than what Jiang Xun saw on the first day he arrived.

Fortunately, he knew that Zhu's family would worship their ancestors today, otherwise he might not have thought there was a temple fair or something in the mountains.

It is worth mentioning that.

A large part of the large number of people who came to the mountain came to watch the ceremony, and some of them were related to the Zhu family after intermarriage. The real Zhu family members were only a minority.

According to Zhu Weiyang.

The Zhu family has been prosperous since its inheritance, and has been inextricably linked with many aristocratic families through continuous intermarriage.

Just today.

At least half of the aristocratic families in Kyushu Kingdom have people there.

This change of direction shows the great energy behind the Zhu family.

Even so.

The Zhu family is actually not ranked among the aristocratic families in Kyushu Kingdom.

A very true thing.

The Zhu family only has two eight realms.

And all the noble families that truly rank in the Kyushu Kingdom have at least one of the Nine Realms, or even the Ten Realms that stand at the top of the cultivation world.

Leaving aside these digressions.

Following the bustling crowd into the mountains, Jiang Xun soon saw a tall archway standing at the end of the mountain road.

Further back.

It is a splendid classical building.

This small building is the Zhu family ancestral hall.

Inside are enshrined the ancestors of the Zhu family.

Look far away.

A banquet was placed in the square in front of the ancestral hall. It was estimated that there must be at least a thousand tables.

Chi Yu, Zhu Qing, Zhu Yun, who had not seen anyone in the past two days, and a few people Jiang Xun had never seen before were currently directly greeting guests as the head of the family.

Zhu You himself stood in front of the ancestral hall to entertain the children of the Zhu family who entered the ancestral hall.

Despite the crowds.

Chi Yu, his wife and Zhu Yun easily noticed Jiang Xun and others coming together.

Zhu Yanqing was seen following Jiang Xun.

Chi Yu frowned.

Zhu Qing was surprised for a moment, then smiled and gave Jiang Xun a look that said, "You kid, you can do that."

Zhu Yun was also a little surprised, but she didn't show any signs of it. She just looked at Jiang Xun quietly while entertaining the guests.

to the place.

Zhu Weiyang took Jiang Xun to an empty table near the ancestral hall and left him alone, and then walked into the ancestral hall with Zhu Yanqing.

……

The process of worshiping ancestors is not complicated.

Basically, the core children within the family go into the ancestral hall one after another to offer incense and kowtow to their ancestors, pray for the continuation of the family, and ask for the blessings of their ancestors.

It's only about half an hour.

Zhu Weiyang and Zhu Yanqing returned hand in hand.

remain.

Just waiting for dinner.

The three of them sat and chatted for an hour. Chi Yu, Zhu Qing, Zhu Yun and Zhu You came to sit down respectively.

The Zhu family had made clear arrangements for the banquet with thousands of tables and where to sit and who should sit.

The table where Jiang Xun was sitting was Zhu You's family.

As the head of the Zhu family, Zhu You only has two daughters, which is quite surprising to be honest.

But what's more important to Jiang Xun is the presence here.

Where is Zhu Yanqing's father?
Passed away, or?
As an outsider, Jiang Xun naturally couldn't ask more about this kind of thing.

Let alone in person.

At the banquet, Zhu You and his family were in harmony.

The two sisters, Zhu Qing and Zhu Yun, were chatting and laughing. There was no sign that the two of them were not dealing with each other very well, nor that the latter had cultivated evil and turned his elder sister into a demonic barrier for himself.

The whole family was enjoying themselves at the dinner table.

Perhaps because of the close relationship between Zhu Yanqing and Jiang Xun, Zhu Yun became quite interested in him and would talk to him from time to time.

Jiang Xun can be regarded as a follower of good deeds and answers all questions.

As for wanting to transfer to another school and join the air force team, Zhu Yanqing planned to mention it to Zhu Yun after practicing martial arts within the clan. As a brother-in-law, there was nothing wrong with him making a good impression in advance.

The effort of this meal.

Just two hours passed.

In a blink of an eye, it's afternoon.

The banquet comes to an end, and the guests and hosts enjoy themselves.

Zhu You and others still wanted to greet the guests and stay, while Jiang Xun was taken away by Zhu Weiyang and Zhu Yanqing to a large venue built in the middle of the mountain behind the ancestral hall.

This is the Zhu family's martial arts arena.

Zhu Weiyang had already told Jiang Xun in detail about everything about the martial arts arena.

There are a total of three venues in the martial arts arena.

There are different levels of protective barriers arranged corresponding to the second, third and fourth realms. The diameter of the field is equivalent to that of a football field, and it only exists for intra-tribe competitions.

When Jiang Xun and others arrived, many Zhu family members and guests had already arrived in advance.

A steady stream of people are entering the venue.

At this time, most of the good seats in the different stands were occupied.

The positions of Jiang Xun and others were naturally arranged in advance.

Under the guidance of Zhu Weiyang and Zhu Yanqing, Jiang Xun sat down on a terrace with a wide field of vision where he could easily observe the overall situation of three different sites at the same time.

About half an hour later.

Zhu You and others congratulated the arrival of a large number of parents and elders.

Seeing Jiang Xun sandwiched between Zhu Weiyang and his two sisters, Zhu's elders all looked sideways as they took their seats one after another.

Two days passed.

Zhu Weiyang brought her boyfriend back, and it was no secret that Jiang Xun would take part in the clan competition of the Four Realms Group.

I wish parents and elders have their own thoughts and are not stupid.

At such a young age, he is already in the fourth realm.

His talent can be said to be extremely outstanding.

But more importantly.

Zhu You personally arranged for Jiang Xun to replace Zhu Weiyang in the battle, which showed that the old man had already acquiesced that this was his grandson-in-law.

How can you tell them not to care?

Especially those who have the idea to "arrange" a wave for Zhu Weiyang.

Many of the elders who were congratulating them were paying attention to him, consciously or unconsciously, so Jiang Xun was naturally aware of it.

He noticed more.

As Chi Yu sat down, several elders from the Zhu family who had originally intended to come over to talk to him silently gave up their plans.

In this regard.

Jiang Xunlue was surprised.

According to what Zhu Qing said when I visited last time.

As the son-in-law, Chi Yu's status in the Zhu family was not very good, but it didn't seem like that at the moment.

His future father-in-law not only has a good status, but also has considerable intimidation power.

Chi Yu, who was quietly observing the surroundings and trying to determine which one was the "matchmaker" for his little girlfriend, looked over at Chi Yu, who was sitting on Zhu Weiyang's side.

"Jiang Xun, you will soon replace Wei Yang to participate in the ranking competition of the Four Realms Group. Are you confident?"

Jiang Xun turned his head when he heard the sound and smiled.

"Uncle, don't worry, we will surely win the first place."

Chi Yu raised his eyebrows but said nothing.

Zhu Qing, who was sitting aside, smiled lightly.

“It’s good to have confidence, but don’t be too pushy.”

Zhu Yun on the other side looked sideways when she heard the sound.

The restriction to participate in the Four Scenery Group competition is under 30 years old.

Being able to enter the Fourth Realm before the age of 30 does not necessarily mean you have extraordinary talent, but there are many amazingly talented people who have entered the Fourth Realm early.

Many of them have been accumulating in the Four Realms for many years, and some even deliberately suppressed their realms in order to receive generous rewards from the Four Realms Group Competition. In fact, they have already been able to break through the Five Realms.

According to what she knew, Jiang Xun was only in the early stage of the Four Realms.

Where did he get the confidence to secure first place?

However, Chi Yu just asked that question without any rebuttal.

Zhu Qing was even more cheerful and told him not to be so aggressive.

This looks.

It seemed that both of them felt that Jiang Xun said it was okay.

There is surprise and doubt.

There are hosts on each of the three competition venues.

Without any prelude, the three people took the microphone and spoke one after another.

"The first game of the second realm group, Zhu Chen versus Zhu Zhen."

"In the first game of the Three Realms Group, Zhu Yanqing plays against Wang Donglai."

"In the first game of the Four Realms Group, Wei Zhixing plays against Jiang Xun."

Including the parties involved, Jiang Xun and Zhu Yanqing, the two families present were stunned. They did not expect that both of them would go into battle in the first game.

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Yun's expression changed.

"Wang Donglai, No. 1 of the third generation of the Wang family in northern Hunan."

Muttering, she frowned and looked at Zhu You who was sitting not far away with several of her contemporaries.

Wang Donglai was able to play as a member of the Wang family in northern Hunan, naturally because he was related to the Zhu family by marriage.

This is in line with the rules.

And in fact.

He was the first in the three realms group last year.

Because of this, Zhu Yun knew where he came from.

Zhu Yanqing faced off against Wang Donglai in the first game, how could there be any fun in this?

Is it a lottery?
Zhu Yun doesn't think so.

There are more than 400 contestants in the Three Realms Group this year. Among the more than 400 people, Zhu Yanqing got the "highest lottery" all of a sudden. How bad is this?

I just told Zhu Yun that this was deliberately arranged by someone.

The only person in the entire Zhu family who can influence the arrangement of the matches is the head of the family.

If anyone else dares to interfere, they will be dealt with according to clan rules.

The allocation of resources for the younger generation has a great impact on the continuation of the Zhu family. Whether the competition is fair or not affects the meaning of martial arts. No one is allowed to stir up trouble behind the scenes.

Then the problem is coming.

Why did Zhu You arrange it like this?
Zhu Yanqing is his granddaughter!

Let’s look at Jiang Xun’s opponent.

Wei Zhixing!
He also ranked first in the Four Realms Group last year.

The No. 1 third-generation descendant from the Wei family in Jiangbei!
What on earth does Zhu You want to do?
Did you trick your two eldest granddaughters to death? ?
Zhu Yun was wondering, while Zhu You looked over with a smile.

"Boy, the stage has been set for you, don't let me down."?

I wish you rhyme.

Obvious.

Zhu You didn't say this to her.

Subconsciously, Zhu Yun turned her head.

When he came into view, he saw Jiang Xun and Zhu You making OK gestures, and then stood up.

"Yan Qing, let's go."

As he spoke, he took out a mask and handed it out.

Zhu Yanqing said "hmm" and stood up, took the mask and put it on.

next second.

The upper body of the magic armor outlines her graceful body lines.

The beauty is beginning to appear, and the pure black cloak hood appears to hide everything.

???

I wish you rhyme.

This is this...

What kind of "equipment" is this?
Zhu Qing and Chi Yu were both stunned when they saw this.

Before the three of them could react, Zhu Yanqing turned around and looked.

"Mom, I'm on it."

After saying that, she rose into the air.

Jiang Xun also controlled the sky at the same time.

Seeing the two of them leaving the field and going to different venues, Zhu Yun reluctantly reacted and looked at Zhu Weiyang who stayed in his place in surprise.

"Weiyang, Yan Qing and Jiang Xun are...?"

"Auntie, don't think too much. I'm just a simple brother-in-law taking care of my sister-in-law, at least for the time being."

Zhu Weiyang smiled sweetly.

As soon as these words came out, Zhu Qing and Chi Yu couldn't help but look weird.

Zhu Weiyang's words contained a lot of information.

off the field.

As Zhu Yanqing and Jiang Xun exited, their opponents also appeared separately.

Wei Zhixing, who was also acting on his behalf, glanced at Jiang Xun lightly, waved his hand and took out the flying sword with a "clang" sound, then held the sword behind his back and cupped his fists to show a simple courtesy.

"Wei family in Jiangbei, Wei Zhixing, sword cultivator."

Jiang Xun was slightly stunned when he saw this, and then he followed the example of clasping his fists and saluting.

"Jiang Xun."

Wei Zhixing nodded and then spoke.

"I have a clear sword mind, but I can see that you are only in the early stage of the Four Realms, and you are no match for me. The sword has no eyes, so you can end it on your own."

"..."

Jiang Xun.

The opponent Zhu You specially arranged for him would naturally not be simple.

Jianxin is transparent.

It's really something.

Sword cultivators who have achieved a clear sword heart can indeed accurately judge the opponent's cultivation level.

But he didn't expect that this person who was quite polite to him would be so pretentious.

Shaking his head secretly, Jiang Xun took a step forward and turned into a wisp of magic mist that dissipated on the spot.

The devil of freedom.

Happy.

Wei Zhixing was stunned when he saw this.

next second.

His body trembled, and he suddenly turned around and decisively drew his sword.

At the same time, Jiang Xun appeared.

Facing the sword tip that Wei Zhixing sent straight towards him, he raised his hand and flicked it with his fingers.

"Ding!"

A crisp sound.

Wei Zhixing dropped his sword.

!!!

Spectators on the high platform.

Although Wei Zhixing acted hastily, he is a sword cultivator!

The sword in his hand cannot be "disarmed" easily, let alone the indomitable sword intent.

However, Jiang Xun was blown away with just a flick of his finger.

The person involved, Wei Zhixing, was also a little confused at this time.

He can admit it.

I was a little careless.

But he never imagined that when he drew his sword, it would be bounced away by someone's finger.

Not only that.

At this moment, half of his body was paralyzed as he stood in front of Jiang Xun.

Numbed by shock.

Although Jiang Xun just flicked the sword casually, the huge force exerted on the sword was far beyond what Wei Zhixing could bear.

Body repair!

Wei Zhixing instantly made a judgment in his mind.

But he couldn't figure it out.

Jiang found out that someone in the early stage of the Four Realms could have such a powerful body.

One blow "disarmed" him and numbed half of his body.

This physical strength cannot be said to be achieved by cultivating the four realms, even by cultivating the five realms.

Looking at Jiang Xun blankly, Wei Zhixing's face turned pale.

This TM...

what monster?

"I surrender."

He spoke decisively, and then looked at Zhu You on the high platform.

"Master, I apply for the Easter Tournament."

"can."

Zhu You replied calmly.

There is no shame in admitting defeat when facing an opponent that you are absolutely unable to fight against.

As last year's No. [-] in the Four Realms Group, Wei Zhixing is indeed qualified to apply for the revival competition.

After receiving the agreement, Wei Zhixing glanced at Jiang Xun in surprise, nodded and chose to leave on his own.

on the high platform.

Zhu You looked calm on the surface, but Jiang Xun on the stage became more and more pleasing to his eyes.

this kid.

It was much more exaggerated than he imagined!
Looking at the audience again, the audience was completely silent, and Zhu You stood up.

"Jiang Xun's appearance seems a bit too bullying. I think it's better to let him go, so as not to affect the Taoist minds of the juniors. This year's number one in the Four Realms Group has been decided to be him. Do you think everyone here has any objections?"

After that, he added.

"If any of the contestants in the Four Realms Group are not convinced, they can take the stage to challenge now. Whoever wins doesn't have to fight round after round and will directly come first in the Four Realms Group."

No one here said a word.

Opinions, I hope the elders must have some.

The Zhu family's martial arts performance is no joke. How can one game determine the first place in the group?
The problem is that Jiang Xun's performance is too strong.

An understatement shocked last year's No. [-] in the Four Realms Group with just one finger, making him willing to admit defeat and apply for resurrection.

If this continues.

Wouldn't it be that whoever encounters him will be unlucky?

The essential.

It's not certain who will encounter him next.

Maybe the next one will be a junior from their family.

The contestants were also very honest this time.

He is not an opponent of the same level at all. Who wants him to stay on the martial arts stage?
The first one is taken away, and there are still second and third places that can be fought for. It is better than going up and being sent away without even a chance to fight.

on the terrace.

Zhu Qing looked at the deathly silence and his face was filled with red light.

This time, she really saw how strong her son-in-law was.

Chi Yu looked at Jiang Xun on the stage and couldn't take his eyes away.

He knew that the cheap son-in-law was very capable, but he never expected that he could be so capable.

Zhu Yun's small mouth was now completely O-shaped.

Zhu Qing and Chi Yu knew that Jiang Xun was the legendary explorer and air force of Dongxuan City, but Zhu Yun had no idea about this. How could she have imagined that this humble boy was so terrifying?
Here.

Zhu You saw that no one was speaking and said calmly.

"Since there is no objection, the matter has been decided. Jiang Xun, you come back."

Jiang Xun followed his words and exited.

at the same time.

Wang Donglai's voice came from the Three Realms venue.

"Clan leader, I admit defeat! Apply for resurrection!"

?

The audience raised a question mark and turned their heads.

When he came into view, he saw Wang Donglai retreating in the distance with a frustrated expression and a broken sword in his arms, while Zhu Yanqing was standing there unscathed with a talisman in his arms, and another severed sword at his feet.

???

Everyone present.

Zhu Yan Qingmao didn't even get a single injury, so why did Wang Donglai's sword break?

Zhu Yun and the elders of the Zhu family who were nearby on the terrace also had doubts in their minds, and then they all looked at Jiang Xun intently.

Others may not notice.

But they all watched Jiang Xun take out the mask and give it to Zhu Yanqing.

Facing the gazes that came one after another, Jiang Xun looked calm.

For Zhu Weiyang.

He stopped pretending at all.

This limelight.

It can't be said that it's not big.

After today, not only many aristocratic families in the Zhu family will know his name.

But that doesn't matter.

Except for the Zhu family, other aristocratic families would not pay much attention to a young and powerful man like him who was "famous and had a master", and the Zhu family would not allow other aristocratic families to extend their hands to him casually. (End of chapter)
