It could be said that this martial arts gathering for young warriors had a great influence in the entire Giant Rock Valley. Those who participated in this martial arts gathering were the top geniuses of the younger generation in the Giant Rock Valley. This was also the reason why Xiao Chen decided to stay in Duanmu City for a few days. Young and frivolous desire to compete with the heavens, who could refuse fame and fortune?
Young people were full of passion and vigor. At the same time, as a famous warrior in the Giant Rock Valley, he did not want to be isolated. As a warrior, not interacting with others was a taboo for cultivation. It was like looking at the sky from the bottom of a well, how could one know how big the sky was?
Perhaps it was because the martial arts gathering was approaching, as the organizer of this gathering, Ying Jie was quite busy. Ever since they parted, in the next few days, Xiao Chen and Ren Fei did not see Ying Jie's figure. Of course, even the Xiao Witch Ying Lin Er did not appear. This made Xiao Chen surprised, but at the same time, his ears were also a lot quieter.
Although he did not see Ying Jie, he had already instructed the servants in the manor that Xiao Chen and Ren Fei were honored guests and could enter and leave the manor at will. Therefore, in the next few days, Xiao Chen and Ren Fei would sit down and discuss the Dao. When they were excited, they would even move their bodies a little and verify their martial arts moves. Of course, the two of them did not make any big moves.
Boom Boom!
At this moment, in the huge Martial Practice Field of the Pine Courtyard, the two figures were fighting at high speed. The spear scattered the saber lights that were coming at them and disappeared like bubbles.
"Again, eat my saber, Wind Break!"
In the field, Ren Fei shouted loudly. The saber in his hand instantly turned into a shadow and slashed towards Xiao Chen in a very strange way. The saber light on the body of the saber flashed and countless tiny saber lights weaved into a thin saber net, covering Xiao Chen's entire body.
Facing Ren Fei's attack, Xiao Chen was very calm. There was not a trace of shock in his eyes. The seemingly impenetrable saber net could be said to be full of loopholes under his soul perception.
This was also one of the benefits that Xiao Chen obtained from refining the Spirit Herb No Return Grass. Originally, Xiao Chen's soul was already stronger than most people's. After refining that Spirit Herb and experiencing the impact of the burly senior's will, he did not expect his soul to be tempered as well. His perception of the surrounding environment had become even sharper.
As for imbuing his attack with Spiritual Will, Xiao Chen had learned this from the old man who traded Spirit Herbs for Never-Returning Grass. With just a glance, the old man had severely injured a Blood Refinement Realm cultivator. Xiao Chen guessed that this mysterious old man had used Mental Energy. As for how the old man could have such a strong Mental Energy, this was something that Xiao Chen was puzzled about.
Facing the dense saber net in front of him, the spear in Xiao Chen's hand instantly turned into a dragon, the tip of the spear repeatedly stabbing into the saber net. Every time the spear tip pierced through the saber net, the power of the saber net would weaken. When the spear in Xiao Chen's hand fell, the originally threatening saber net instantly disintegrated into starlight and disappeared in the air. Not a single one of them had come into contact with Xiao Chen's battle robes.
"No more, no more. I admit defeat. Brother Xiao, you are indeed a monster. I admit defeat."
Seeing his saber net disappear under Xiao Chen's attack, Ren Fei's eyes revealed a look of certainty. He even admitted defeat to Xiao Chen. This was already the third time he had fought with Xiao Chen in the past few days. In the end, Xiao Chen had always been stronger.
At this moment, he was already completely convinced of Xiao Chen's strength. Originally, he had thought that even though Xiao Chen was famous, the saber in his hand was not something to be trifled with. No matter how strong Xiao Chen was, he was just a rookie who had just broken through to the Blood Refining Realm a year ago. Ren Fei could suppress him with a flip of his hand. He never expected that when they actually fought, the result would be the exact opposite.
As a young cultivator of Gigantic Stone Valley, it could be said that Ren Fei was unlucky to have met a monster like Xiao Chen. He could only be ruthlessly left behind.
"Brother Xiao, I heard that with the opening of the Martial Arts Exchange, Duanmu City has become much more lively than usual. The young geniuses of our Gigantic Stone Valley have all gathered here. Why don't we go into the city and see just what kind of geniuses there are? That way we can prepare ourselves."
"Haha, I was thinking the same thing."
After the competition, the two of them meditated for a moment before walking out of the manor.
It could be said that as the trading center of Gigantic Stone Valley, the flow of people in Duanmu City was extremely shocking. Normally, aside from some tribesmen who came here to barter, young cultivators would also come here. It could be said that there was an endless stream of cultivators coming and going.
Treasure Elephant Tower was one of the three largest restaurants in Duanmu City. It had five floors and each floor could accommodate hundreds of cultivators eating together. It was the property of one of the four controlling tribes, the Treasure Elephant Tribe. It was a place where the wandering warriors and heroes who came and went to Duanmu City liked to hang out.
In the past few days, Xiao Chen had already learned about the four controlling tribes of Duanmu City. In addition to the You Xiong Tribe, the Shadow Forest Tribe, and the Treasure Elephant Tribe, there was also the Thunder Tribe. These four tribes could be said to be the overlord of Gigantic Stone Valley. In Gigantic Stone Valley, where the power of the middle rank Iron Hoof Tribe could not directly radiate, they were like the pillars of the sky.
At this moment, in the lobby of the third floor, there were five young wandering warriors talking loudly and arguing incessantly.
"I just heard that the third brother, sixth brother, and seventh brother of the Shadow Forest Eight Heroes of the Shadow Forest Tribe will appear in this martial arts competition."
"That's old news. Not only will the third brother of the Shadow Forest Eight Heroes of the Shadow Forest Tribe appear, but also the owner of the Treasure Elephant Tower, Young Master Mammoth Heaven of the Treasure Elephant Tribe, and Miss Lei Chang of the Thunder Tribe will also appear in this martial arts competition. Not only that, but several young wandering warriors will also appear. It can be said that this martial arts competition is the most powerful one in a hundred years."
"Young Master Mammoth Heaven of the Treasure Elephant Tribe, Third Brother Shadow of the Shadow Forest Tribe, and Miss Lei Chang of the Thunder Tribe are all rare geniuses of our Gigantic Stone Valley. And Third Brother Shadow of the Shadow Forest Tribe, he competed for the position of the Heaven's Chosen Ranking of the Desolate Region last time. Although he failed on the verge of success, it is said that he obtained a trace of our Desolate Region's Qi Power. This is also the reason why the Shadow Forest Tribe has been developing so fast in the past few years, surpassing the other three tribes. Five years have passed, who knows what level his strength has reached."
Sitting close to the window, Xiao Chen and Ren Fei heard every word of the wandering warriors clearly. As for the Qi Power, Xiao Chen and the others were not too clear about it. It was said that only the middle rank and above tribes had the ability to gather Qi Power.
"If what they said is true, this martial arts competition is indeed the most grand one in a hundred years. I never thought that the Treasure Elephant Tribe and the Thunder Tribe would participate. In the past, these two tribes usually did not participate. It seems that something big is about to happen."
