"Jiang Yu has arrived!"
The Elders and disciples from the Tai Hua Holy Land who had already gathered at the venue suddenly beca restless.
Flanked by the mbers of his clan, Jiang Yu made his way to the Martial Arts Platform.
The Jiang Family's strength was second only to the Lin Family, possessing an Immortal Emperor Realm Supre Elder to oversee them and one acting as a protector of the Holy Land.
Jiang Yu, ranked ninety-seventh on the Qilin Ranking, was also the current Holy Son of Tai Hua.
"As expected of the Jiang Clan's number one talent, he has the full support of his entire clan."
"It seems that this ti, Jiang Yu is determined to defend his position as Holy Son."
"There have been nurous instances where a Holy Son candidate successfully challenged and replaced the existing Holy Son, and Jiang Yu did exactly that by challenging the forr Holy Son, Ye Feng."
"Jiang Yu was at the Quasi-Emperor level when he challenged Ye Feng. Back then, Jiang Yu was ranked one hundred and eighty on the Qilin Ranking, while Ye Feng was ranked one hundred and sixty-five, a re fifteen places higher. Now, Jiang Yu is ranked at ninety-seven, while Lu Changsheng is ranked four hundred and sixty-one, a gap of over three hundred places. No matter how you look at it, Jiang Yu has a much greater chance of winning."
The crowd from Tai Hua Holy Land whispered amongst themselves, passing judgnt and making comnts, with the majority favoring Jiang Yu because the gap in the Qilin Ranking between him and Lu Changsheng was too vast.
The leading Elder of the Jiang Clan spoke, "Jiang Yu, you must retain the position of Holy Son at all costs. Our Jiang Family has only ever reached the position of Left Envoy; none has ever beco a Saint Lord."
Jiang Yu sneered, "Don't worry, Clan Leader. I won't disappoint you. The position of Holy Son belongs to , Jiang Yu."
The mbers of the Jiang Family took their seats, and Jiang Yu stepped onto the Martial Arts Platform.
"I have the Emperor Soldier given to by the Ancestor as my trump card; it's impossible for to lose."
Jiang Yu crossed his arms, closed his eyes, and composed himself, patiently waiting for his opponent, Lu Changsheng, to arrive.
"The Holy Son candidate has arrived!"
There was another flurry of commotion among the crowd as Lu Changsheng arrived at the Martial Arts Platform with several disciples.
"Junior Brother must win."
Lin Qinghan sat next to Lin Xuantong, silently rooting for Lu Changsheng.
"You all take a seat; I'll dispatch this person quickly."
Lu Changsheng instructed his fellow disciples to watch as he ascended the platform to face Jiang Yu.
Besides the Grand Freedom Buddha, who overwhelmingly surpassed him in strength, and Lin Qinghan, with whom he sparred regularly, Jiang Yu could be the strongest opponent Lu Changsheng had ever faced.
The two stood opposite each other on the Martial Arts Platform.
Jiang Yu stared intently at Lu Changsheng, "I didn't expect you to actually dare to challenge . I won't go easy on you."
Lu Changsheng t his gaze fiercely, "Why wouldn't I dare? The position of Holy Son belongs to the strongest."
Just as they faced off, suddenly, several terrifying presences descended and took up the vacant spots next to Lin Xuantong.
"Who are these people?"
Most of the disciples, and even so Elders from the Tai Hua Holy Land, couldn't recognize the frost-haired old n.
These Elders were able to sit on an equal footing with Lin Xuantong, their statuses even surpassing those of protectors and Supre Elders.
"They are the Ancestors who have been cultivating in the back mountain of the Holy Land!"
"Who would have thought that this contention for the Holy Son would actually disturb the Ancestors who usually keep to themselves!"
"Quick, pay your respects to the Ancestors!"
Many of the Supre Elders recognized the identities of these Elders and stood up.
"Ancestors!?"
The disciples from the Tai Hua Holy Land were shocked.
These Ancestors were of a higher generation than Lin Xuantong, and their cultivation levels were unfathomable.
Normally, these Ancestors kept to secluded cultivation and rarely showed themselves in public, typically leaving the handling of the Holy Land's affairs to Lin Xuantong and the other Elders; hence, the majority of the younger disciples didn't recognize these Ancestors.
All the Elders and disciples of the Tai Hua Holy Land stood up and saluted in unison, "We pay respects to the Ancestors!"
One of the amiable-looking Ancestors said, "Disperse the formalities. We few old fellows just heard that a talent surpassing that of the forr Qingyang erged in the Holy Land, so we ca out to see."
Only then did everyone take their seats again.
But inside, they were still astonished.
The fact that these Ancestors erged from seclusion ant that they ca specifically for this struggle for the title of Holy Son!
The previous contention for the Holy Son between Jiang Yu and Ye Feng hadn't attracted any Ancestor's presence.
But this ti, a total of seven Ancestors erged from seclusion, coming specially to watch the event!
Undoubtedly, the talent referred to by the Ancestors was not Jiang Yu, but Lu Changsheng.
"Damn it..."
Jiang Yu felt a surge of envy realizing that the Ancestors had co specifically to assess Lu Changsheng's aptitude.
He, Jiang Yu, was clearly the most suitable candidate for Holy Son.
Among the seven Ancestors, only the Jiang Family Ancestor, Jiang Hong, supported him, Jiang Yu, while the others were observing.
If he could crush Lu Changsheng, these Ancestors would surely see who was truly fit to be the Holy Son.
"These seven, their auras are indeed terrifying, much stronger than the Immortal Emperors like Grand Freedom Buddha; they're at least at the Great Accomplishnt Immortal Emperor level." Continue reading stories on empire
Lu Changsheng sensed the formidable aura of the seven Tai Hua Holy Land Ancestors.
The seven Ancestors might have been dominant talents of their ti, reigning supre.
After years of secluded cultivation, their realms had likely reached unimaginable heights.
"Now that the Ancestors have arrived, you two should perform your best. Just like always, even if one fails in this struggle for the position of Holy Son, they remain a Holy Son candidate and should not be discouraged. The Holy Son candidate can still beco a Supre Elder, or even a protector or one of the Left and Right Envoys in the future."
Lin Xuantong spoke in an even tone.
He was the Saint Lord of Tai Hua, prioritizing the interests of the Holy Land, without showing partiality to disciples.
This struggle for the position of Holy Son was in accordance with the sect rules.
After hearing that they were allowed to begin, Jiang Yu spoke with a cold tone, "Lu Changsheng, witness my power!"
Jiang Yu activated the True Solar Fire Yuan Skills, and a pure surge of True Solar Fire Yuan True Qi enveloped him, causing the temperature around the Martial Arts Platform to soar abruptly!
