Chapter 178: The Great Martial Arts Competition in the 540th Year of Da Qian
Translator: 549690339
As for the Underworld Dragon and Fire Raven, why else would they be said to have the bloodline of a Daemon King?
In just a few years, he had relied on his own ability to cultivate to the early-stage Demon General and provided the Chen family with 200 points of clan luck.
Oh right, there was also the Darkwind Wolf, the natal subdued beast that had followed Yang Chen the longest.
Because of his bloodline, he had gradually left Yang Chen’s battle sequence and became the clan’s mascot. Every day, he would make the new members of the Chen clan happy.
Yang Chen would never give up on the Mythical Wind Wolf.
After all, this was the first Intrinsic Beast that had followed him. In the future, he had to use the Dao Integration Pearl to improve the Darkwind Wolf’s bloodline no matter what.
However, now wasn’t the time. There was still the beastmaster assessment. The energy of the Dao Integration Pearl had to be used on the Underworld Dragon.
After the Heli Earthwyrm broke through to the Demon Venerable realm, the remaining energy should be used by the Darkwind Wolf and the others.
Other than Yang Chen’s own strength, the rest of the clan had also improved significantly.
First of all, all the elders had cultivated to the peak of Qi Refinement. However, due to the limitations of their aptitude, they were unable to break through to Meridian Opening.
In response, the Chen Family also started to look for Grade 7 Elixirs. However, Da Qian had almost used up all of them and was unable to supply the Chen Family.
As for letting alchemists to refine a grade-7 aptitude pill, the Chen family currently did not have the face to do so.
It was not realistic to ask Deshun Commandery Prince for help. One or two pills were fine, but if he asked for more, Deshun Commandery Prince would not be able to do anything.
In this regard, the Chen family could only hope that Chen Die would be able to refine the Blood Absorption Pill as soon as possible. This way, the Chen family would not need to sell their smiles.
Speaking of which, this Chen Die was indeed impressive. In just seven years, she had already become a senior eighth grade alchemist.
He had also tried to refine the Blood Na Pill. Although he had failed, his understanding of the Blood Na Pill had increased.
It would probably not take long for Chen Die to refine the Blood Absorption Pill.
Compared to Chen Die, Chen Shou was a little weaker. Currently, he was only stabilizing his grade as a Primary Eighth Grade Weapons Craftsman.
He could only refine a low grade eighth grade spirit weapon. It was still somewhat difficult for a middle grade spirit weapon.
However, this was enough. The beast collar refined by Chen Shou was currently the most popular spirit weapon in Da Qian, earning the Chen Family a lot of spirit stones every year.
In addition, due to Yang Chen’s plan to develop the remains, the Chen family had also produced many alchemy and refining apprentices in the past two years.
Among them, there were direct descendants and collateral descendants.
However, the branch family was in the majority. After all, there were many more people in the branch family than in the direct line.
Although the branch family disciples who became apothecary and artifact forging apprentices were still branch family disciples, they enjoyed the treatment of the direct line disciples and lived together with them.
This was also a necessary measure to ensure their loyalty.
Moreover, from the day they entered the ruins, the Chen family would not let them return to the Collateral Branch.
As for martial arts, the younger members of the Chen family had also improved.
Among them, Chen Yang’s elder brother, Chen Dao, had improved the most because of the Blood Elixir bestowed by the Chen family a few years ago. He had successfully refined his bloodline and become a bloodline warrior.
At the same time, he had also successfully broken through to Meridian Opening three years ago, giving the Chen family an additional 100 points of clan luck.
As for the other martial artists of the same generation, they had also cultivated to the late stage of Qi Refinement. And the Dragon Cavalry Guards had two more demon generals on their fiery mane horses.
Overall, the Chen Family’s combat strength was already comparable to the other Eighth-rank aristocratic families.
The only thing they lacked was the number of clansmen.
Yang Chen wasn’t in a hurry. The Chen family had been established a long time ago, so it was normal for them to have a small number of people. After a hundred years, the number of people would definitely not be as large as it was now.
Back to the main topic.
After sorting out the clan’s current improvements, the Dao Integration Pearl also provided the energy that could be absorbed every week.
“50 points of energy every week, not bad. “I’ve accumulated nearly 9,000 energy points so far. In a few months, I’ll be able to nurture the Underworld Dragon to the Demon Venerable realm.”
Putting away the Dao Integration Pearl, Yang Chen was still looking forward to the future.
With the Dao Integration Pearl, it would probably not take long for Chen Yang’s subdued beasts to all advance to Demon Venerable.
At that time, the Chen Family could be called the number one eighth-rank family in Jiang Prefecture and even compete for the number one eighth-rank family in Da Qian.
“Dong dong dong…”
At this moment, someone knocked on Yang Chen’s door.
“He’s here.”
Chen Yang put away the Dao Integration Pearl and opened the courtyard door. He found Chen Xuan looking at him anxiously.
“Great Elder, what happened?”
“Patriarch, Deshun Commandery Prince is here.” Chen Xuan said.
“Who is it?” Chen Yang was surprised.” Master is here?”
Immediately, Chen Yang could not care less. He left Chen Xuan behind and headed to the reception hall.
In the reception hail, seeing the Deshun Commandery Prince leisurely drinking tea, Chen Yang quickly came to the side of the Deshun Commandery Prince. After the Deshun Commandery Prince put down the teacup, he poured a cup of tea for him.
After doing all this, Yang Chen asked,””I wonder if there’s anything you need me to do in Chen City?”
“It’s nothing serious. 1 just wanted to inform you.
Half a year later, Da Qian will hold a national martial arts competition. Your Chen family must also pay attention and not miss it.”Deshun Commandery Prince said.
“National Martial Arts Competition?”” Why is there a National Martial Arts Competition?” Yang Chen asked.” I don’t remember Da Qian having such a competition before.””
H
It’s like this. The battle at the front has been going on for too long. It’s really delaying the development of both sides.”
“The Human Kings of both sides have decided to fight according to the cities and spirit stone mines that the two sides are fighting for.”
“This National Martial Arts Competition is for the purpose of selecting talents for this martial arts competition.”
“I see.” Chen Yang nodded.” It’s a pity. If it wasn’t for the flood, the Great Gan would have won this battle.”
Yang Chen was right. Da Qian was stronger than Da Kun.
Otherwise, the Da Qian king would not have taken the initiative to attack.
However, who would have thought that the flood that spread to the entire Jiang Prefecture would greatly delay the reinforcements from the Great Gan to the frontline?
One wrong step, one wrong step.
This caused the stronger Qian to be dragged into a prolonged battle by Great
Kun.
This was extremely disadvantageous to the development of both sides.
Because of this, the Human Kings of both sides decided to use the martial arts competition to decide who would be the winner.
However, Yang Chen didn’t want to get involved. Couldn’t he just stay in Chen City?
Seemingly able to read Chen Yang’s mind, the Deshun Commandery Prince smiled and said,””Let me tell you, there are many benefits in this competition.”
Yang Chen’s interest was piqued.” What benefits?”
“As long as you enter the final list, you will be rewarded with three grade-7 aptitude pills.”
“In the duel with Da Kun, as long as you win one round, you will be rewarded with ten Grade 7 Elixirs. If you win two rounds, you will be rewarded with a Grade 6 Elixirs.”
” If you can win three rounds, then congratulations. The royal family will empty the national treasury and give you three Rank-6 Aptitude Pills.”The Deshun Commandery Prince laughed.
Yang Chen’s eyes widened. This was really someone giving him a pillow when he was dozing off.
“Master, do you have any requirements for the contestants?” Yang Chen asked.”
“Both parties ‘requirement is that you must be under fifty years old.”Deshun Commandery Prince said.
“Below fifty years old.” Yang Chen pondered for a moment and thought that he could go up. He immediately asked,”Are there any restrictions for beastmasters?”
Deshun Commandery Prince saw through Chen Yang’s thoughts and immediately said with a smile,””Beastmasters can only use their natal subdued beasts. But disciple, do you really plan to use them?”
“You should know that you are the Patriarch of an Eight-rank Aristocratic Family, and also a famous big shot. After all, participating in this kind of competition is a little embarrassing.”
Chen Yang heard this and held his chin.” There’s no other way. The Chen family is poor. They can’t afford a large number of Level Seven Elixirs.””
“Now that I finally have a chance to obtain a aptitude pill, I naturally have to seize it.”
“As for face, how many spirit stones can face be worth?”
Hearing Chen Yang’s words, the Deshun Commandery Prince patted Chen
Yang’s shoulder in satisfaction.” I’m glad that you think so.””
“You have to know how many geniuses and monstrous geniuses have lost their face in the end.”
“Alright, prepare well. The martial arts competition will begin in half a year. 1 still think highly of you.”
Then, the Deshun Prince left.
Yang Chen also had his own estimation.
With the temptation of the Aptitude Pill, he could not continue to hide even if he wanted to..
