Time flies, and a year passed in the blink of an eye.
On top of the mountain where Xing Jue lived, there was a huge iron pillar with a diameter of one and a half meters and a height of more than ten meters. The iron pillar was deeply inserted into the rocks of the mountain. From afar, it looked like the Wishful Metal Rod of the Great Sage, Heaven's Equal. It gave off an indestructible feeling.
However, if one looked closely, they would be shocked to find that on this seemingly indestructible iron pillar, there were actually numerous palm prints. The shallowest palm print was one centimeter deep, and the deepest was a few centimeters deep. These palm prints were naturally made by Xing Jue.
At this moment, Xing Jue was standing in front of the iron pillar. His black clothes fluttered in the wind, and he looked especially spirited. His originally delicate and immature face seemed to have matured a little. Xing Jue looked at the iron pillar in front of him and slowly raised his right hand. The moment he raised his hand, a large amount of light golden Martial Qi flowed into his right hand.
As a large amount of Martial Qi flowed into his right hand, Xing Jue's right hand started to emit a golden light. As the Martial Qi continued to condense, the light became brighter and brighter. When it reached its peak, it was extremely dazzling, and a terrifying aura was emitted from his right hand.
"Devouring Wind Palm!" Suddenly, Xing Jue shouted and raised his right hand, which was condensing a strong light, and fiercely punched at the huge iron pillar. The light in his right hand turned into a light palm print, which was the same size as Xing Jue's palm, and it rapidly flew towards the direction of the iron pillar with a beautiful afterimage.
"Rumble!"
The light palm print landed on the iron pillar as expected, and an ear-piercing sound spread out with the iron pillar as the center. Even the ground on top of the mountain trembled slightly.
"Squeak squeak squeak squeak …"
On the iron pillar, there was a palm print that was at least twenty centimeters deep. Moreover, tiny cracks began to spread from the palm print, and in the end, it became bigger and bigger, and it spread to the entire iron pillar.
"Boom!" As the cracks grew deeper and deeper, the iron pillar finally fell to the ground with a loud sound.
"Haha, I've finally succeeded." Looking at the broken iron pillar on the ground, Xing Jue laughed excitedly.
After a year of bitter training, Xing Jue had already mastered the Low Level Profound Rank Martial Skill "Devouring Wind Palm". Furthermore, his own strength had already reached the terrifying level of a peak High Level Martial Master, and he was only a step away from the "Martial Master". With such a cultivation speed, it would not be an exaggeration to describe him as a monster.
If the head of the Xing family and the instructors knew about Xing Jue's current achievements, they would definitely regret giving up on Xing Jue. After all, a young man with such terrifying cultivation talent would have a limitless future.
"Oh no, did something happen?" Just as Xing Jue was feeling happy that he had successfully mastered the Devouring Wind Palm, a burning sensation suddenly came from the communication amulet hanging on his chest. Then, it turned into a wisp of green smoke and disappeared.
There were usually two communication amulets, which were specially used for emergency communication. Before Xing Jue went up the mountain to train, he had given Elder Zhang a communication amulet. Now that the amulet had reacted, it meant that something had happened to Elder Zhang.
When he felt that something was wrong, Xing Jue hurriedly rushed down the mountain. His speed was so fast that even the cheetahs in the forest could not catch up.
At this moment, in the Xing Tavern, Elder Zhang was frowning as he paced back and forth in the room. In his hands behind his back, there was a small golden book with the words "Invitation" written on it.
"Elder Zhang, who sent this invitation? Why are you so unhappy? "Seeing Elder Zhang's frown, Xiao Hong asked curiously. (The girl who was teased by Little Tyrant a year ago)
"Haha, Xiao Hong, do you know about the 'Three Clans Gathering' in Cloud Sect City?" Elder Zhang asked Xiao Hong with a smile when he saw Xiao Hong's curiosity.
"Three Clans Gathering? Of course I know about it. This is a grand event that is held in Cloud Sect City every three years. It is jointly organized by the three martial arts families in Cloud Sect City, the Xing family, the Zhao family, and the Lv Family. During the gathering, the three families will choose the most outstanding 'new blood' and then compete with each other. The final winner will receive generous rewards from the three families. Moreover, the winning family with the new blood will also obtain the right to control Cloud Sect City for three years." Xiao Hong said seriously. It was obvious that even a little girl like her knew about this so-called Three Clans Gathering very well.
"Not bad, it's very detailed. This is the invitation to the Three Clans Gathering," Elder Zhang said with a smile as he passed the invitation in his hand to Xiao Hong.
"What? The invitation to the Three Clans Gathering? This is something that only high officials and nobles can receive. Why is Elder Zhang not happy about such an expensive invitation? "After receiving the invitation, Xiao Hong could not help but ask in doubt.
"It's actually … an invitation for Brother Xing Jue?" After opening the invitation, Xiao Hong came to a sudden realization and said.
Elder Zhang had once told them about Xing Jue.
Moreover, Xiao Hong was a smart girl. Naturally, she knew that Elder Zhang was worried about Xing Jue because Xing Jue was once the most outstanding new blood in the Xing family. However, because he did not have a Sea of Qi in his body, he became a useless blood. From an important figure in the Xing family, he became the manager of a tavern in a remote town. This was simply like falling from the sky to the ground.
And this Three Clans Gathering was a competition between the new blood of the three martial arts families. If Xing Jue went, it was inevitable that he would suffer a blow in his heart.
"Yes, this invitation is for Xing Jue." Seeing that Xiao Hong had actually guessed his worries, Elder Zhang could not help but be amazed by this little girl's intelligence. Then he said with relief. However, this invitation was a little strange. Logically speaking, Xing Jue had already been abandoned by the Xing family. Even if he could continue to stay in the Xing family, he would only be a servant. For an important meeting like this, he would not be invited at all. However, now that Xing Jue had received one, there must be something behind it. However, he could not guess what it was.
"Three Clans Gathering? I must go to such a grand meeting. "At this moment, a clear young voice sounded outside the door. The person who came was Xing Jue.
Now, Xing Jue was already a High Rank Martial Master, and he was only one step away from the Martial Master. Therefore, all the organs in his body were much stronger than those of ordinary people. Because of this, Xing Jue had heard the conversation between Elder Zhang and others from a place far away from the tavern. He also understood what the elder was worried about. He must be afraid that he would suffer a blow.
However, Elder Zhang did not know how strong Xing Jue was now. Among the new blood of the Xing family, no one could be compared with Xing Jue. And this Three Clans Gathering was a good opportunity for Xing Jue to show his strength. Therefore, Xing Jue naturally had to go.
Moreover, Xing Jue had also guessed who the person who sent the invitation was. It was the white-clothed youth, Xing Feng, who had injured Xing Jue that day. Xing Feng had been suppressed by Xing Jue since he was young. It could be said that he hated Xing Jue to the bone. Even though he was the most important new blood of the Xing family, Xing Jue had never submitted to him. This had always been a sore point for him. Therefore, he specially sent an invitation to Xing Jue. The purpose was very simple. It was to let Xing Jue realize how big the gap between them was.
However, he would soon know how wrong his decision to invite Xing Jue was.
"Xing Jue, are you sure you want to go?" Seeing that Xing Jue actually said that he wanted to go to the meeting, Elder Zhang said with some worry.
"As a member of the Xing family, I have a reason not to go since it is an invitation from the Xing family." After entering the pub, Xing Jue picked up an apple and said while chewing it. However, his face was full of a confident smile.
"This … hehe, it seems that my worry is unnecessary." Seeing the confident smile on Xing Jue's face, Elder Zhang's worry in his heart was inexplicably resolved. Because he found that the current Xing Jue was as arrogant as the new blood of the Xing family in the past. He was full of confidence and domineering. It seemed that there was nothing that he was afraid of.
