The entire mountaintop was empty, and no one knew where the voice came from.
Zhang Linghua sneered and waved his hand. Everyone felt a gentle breeze brushing past them, giving them an indescribable sense of comfort. The breeze blew towards the mountaintop. A white glow surged up from the mountaintop, forming a light screen that enveloped the entire mountaintop, isolating it from the outside world.
"Haha, Sect Leader Zhang is too stingy!"
The voice rang out again. A sound wave rippled through the air like a wave, pushing against the white barrier and causing it to deform.
A gigantic Rank 7 Golden Sun Battleship appeared in the air, covering the sky and blocking out the sun. The entire mountain peak turned dark as the battleship slowly approached, as though it was about to collide with the defense.
Everyone on the viewing platform changed their expressions, glaring at the warship.
The rogue cultivators below were all shocked, and fear spread in everyone's hearts. Everyone knew about the relationship between the Chamber of Commerce and the local factions.
Zhang Linghua stood up from his seat, his gaze sharp, "Ji Lin, come to my Big Dipper Sect's warship. I hope you can give me an explanation!"
A hearty laugh came from the battleship, and a few figures emerged from the battleship. The man in the lead was dressed in a green robe embroidered with dragon patterns using golden silk. He grinned and made a hand seal with one hand. The huge Golden Sun Warship immediately turned into a mini boat and retracted into his palm.
This person was the president of the Thunder Wind Chamber of Commerce's South Fire City branch, Ji Lin. He carried the Golden Sun Warship and laughed, "Sect Leader Zhang, you worry too much. This Golden Sun Warship is a gift that I have specially brought for the rising stars of the Big Dipper Sect. It is the prize for the champion of this tournament! "
As soon as he said that, an uproar immediately broke out, everyone was shocked.
Although the Golden Sun Warship was only a Rank Seven item, its value was definitely above an ordinary Rank Eight Xuan Artifact. In this era where arcane masters and treasures were scarce, even Emperor Wu rarely had a Rank Nine Xuan Artifact. Rank Eight Xuan Artifacts were basically treasures that every martial artist yearned for.
The young Big Dipper Sect disciples on the viewing platform had a slight change in expression, revealing a look of surprise. This battleship was too huge and they basically had no use for it. But if they were to auction it off, they would definitely be able to exchange it for a low quality eighth tier Profound Armament. Just thinking about it made them feel excited. This was especially so for Cheng Yu, who was one of the favorites to win the championship. His palms were already sweating.
Zhang Linghua lightly said, "It's rare for Sect Master Ji to be so considerate. But don't make such a big move next time. I almost activated the Mountain Guarding Grand Array and blasted everyone into pieces. "
His words were filled with endless coldness, and all the martial artists who were clamoring around immediately shut their mouths. Only then did he remember the relationship between the two factions. His words were filled with coldness and contempt for the other party.
"Haha, Sect Leader Zhang is joking again. The Bei Dou Sect's protective array is just child's play. It's not worth mentioning in the eyes of our Thunder Wind Chamber of Commerce. It's only good for scaring kids. "
Ji Lin brought his people down from the sky. After giving him a tit for tat, he smiled and said, "Today is the grand occasion of your sect. Let's not talk about these boring things."
Li Fengyu also said with a gloomy face, "Indeed, please sit here. If it weren't for the Big Dipper Sect's grand occasion, you wouldn't have been able to return. Haha. "
Ji Lin didn't mind. He sat beside the other two and said sarcastically, "Oh right, I saw Elder Liu of the Heavenly Scorpio Sect last time. How come he hasn't appeared in a long time? Did something happen to him?"
"You!"
Li Fengyu's expression changed drastically. His aura fluctuated as he shouted angrily, "It was indeed your doing!" He clenched his fists so hard that cracking sounds could be heard. "Good, good, very good indeed!"
Ji Lin sneered proudly. He crossed his legs and didn't say anything else. The other person beside him was much calmer. He also sat on the fourth chair and didn't say a word.
Zhang Linghua glanced at that person. His pupils shrank as he said, "This scum looks unfamiliar. Is he a new recruit of your Thunder Wind Chamber of Commerce?"
The fourth person's face twitched a little. His eyes flashed with a fierce light, but he immediately recovered and didn't answer.
Ji Lin laughed and said, "Haha, I almost forgot to introduce him. This is the president of the Heavenly Crane Chamber of Commerce, Fang Tianhe. Everyone should have heard of him, right? "
They didn't hide their words at all. Everyone present heard them clearly and broke out in a cold sweat. If it were anyone else who said that, they would have been slapped to death.
Li Yunxiao was stunned. He looked at Fang Tianhe. So this person was the president of the Heavenly Crane Chamber of Commerce who had been pressuring the Purple Cloud Chamber of Commerce. As expected, he was in cahoots with the Thunder Wind Chamber of Commerce. And from the looks of it, Ji Lin was the leader.
"Heavenly Crane Chamber of Commerce?"
Zhang Linghua frowned. His expression relaxed as he smiled and said, "President Ji, you must be joking. Your Chamber of Commerce has so many miscellaneous chambers of commerce. A few hundred disappear and a few hundred new ones form every day. The changes are too fast. How could I know so much? Who knows, the Thunder Wind Chamber of Commerce might suddenly disappear one day. That wouldn't be strange at all."
"Haha, Faction Leader Zhang is right. There is no chamber of commerce in this world that will exist forever. There is also no force that will stand tall forever."
Ji Lin didn't care at all. He smiled and said, "However, the Thunder Wind Chamber of Commerce is a permanent member of the Chamber of Commerce. If we wait for the Thunder Wind Chamber of Commerce to disappear, the Big Dipper Sect and the Sky Scorpio Sect would have been long gone."
Li Fengyu's face darkened. He snorted and said, "Permanent member? The Chamber of Commerce's Martial Arts and Martial Arts Conference will be held in Song Yueyang City in a month. I heard that some extremely powerful existences will appear this time. Will the Thunder Wind Chamber of Commerce be able to maintain its position this time? I don't think you'll win. I plan to go to Song Yueyang City and open a bet that you'll lose. I'll come back after making a fortune. "
Ji Lin smiled and said, "Welcome, welcome. Faction Leader Li is welcome to give us the primordial stones. When the time comes, the Thunder Wind Chamber of Commerce will raise more money to bet against you."
Their words were full of mockery. They attacked each other, not willing to back down. The smell of gunpowder was getting thicker and thicker. However, they restrained themselves well and didn't attack each other. They were all old foxes. It was fine if they fought with their mouths, but if they really fought, it would be a big blow to their vitality.
After they had attacked each other for a while, Zhang Linghua said, "Let the competition begin."
Elder Yu nodded and stepped forward. "Disciples, please come up one by one according to the order in which you drew lots!"
In order to select the ten direct disciples, the Bei Dou Sect's competition rules were very reasonable. The disciples were divided into two groups based on their cultivation, and they would draw lots to fight. This way, they could prevent disciples with similar strength from being eliminated.
The first to enter the arena was Mei Dong'er. She gently leaped up from the viewing platform like a small green flower that had suddenly bloomed. The butterflies on her long dress danced with the sway of her body, giving off a simple and natural sense of beauty in the mountains. Everyone's eyes lit up.
Mei Dong 'er leaped onto the largest arena and stole a glance at Li Yunxiao, who was in the crowd. She discovered that he was looking at her with a smile. She blushed and quickly turned her gaze away.
Ping Yingyi said softly, "Young Master Yun, this girl seems to be interested in you?"
Li Yunxiao turned his head and asked strangely, "Are you jealous?"
Ping Yingyi was speechless.
Ji Lin's eyes were also filled with admiration. He praised, "This girl is not bad. She's pretty and talented. It's a pity that she's casting pearls before swine."
The other disciple of the Big Dipper Sect also flew onto the arena lightly. He seemed very nervous. He only had the strength of a three-star Martial Arts Grandmaster. In his hand, he held a sixth-ranked profound artifact saber. He cupped his fists towards Mei Dong 'er and said with a bitter smile, "Junior Sister Mei, later on, please show mercy and give me some face."
Mei Dong Er smiled sweetly and said, "Senior Yun is too humble. I hope you'll let me have a few moves."
Senior Yun smiled bitterly and shook his head. He grabbed his saber and waved it. "Junior Mei, please. I will do my best. I hope you won't be stingy with your teachings!"
After he finished speaking, he didn't act pretentiously. The saber let out a buzzing sound as it was injected with vitality. It attacked first. He knew the difference between him and Mei Dong Er. If he made the first move, he might be able to hold on for a few more moves. He might even have a chance of winning.
Mei Dong'er stood motionless. She stretched out her hands and moved her body forward. Her arms were slightly extended, like a green water bird swimming gently. A circle of invisible energy appeared around her body, forming a circular defensive barrier.
"Clang!"
Senior Yun's saber slashed down and landed on the defensive barrier. The saber blade only pierced through halfway before it stopped. It was blocked by the spiritual pressure and couldn't penetrate any further!
"What?!"
Senior Yun's eyes widened. He was overwhelmed with disbelief. Beads of cold sweat dripped down his forehead. How could the difference be so huge? He couldn't even break through the opponent's defense. How was he going to fight!? He roared in shock and anger, "Unseal!"
Surging essence force frantically poured into the sixth tier profound artifact. The saber ray instantly expanded and the spiritual pressure it was under didn't seem as strong as before. It gradually pierced through.
Mei Dong 'er's expression didn't change. Although her defensive power was continuously being shattered, she was still able to deal with it with ease. She retracted her hands, and the circular defensive power instantly disappeared. The saber light suddenly pierced upwards. She lightly tapped her feet on the ground and retreated. Her right hand clasped her fingers together and slapped the back of the saber.
"Bang!"
The saber was shaken to the side. Furthermore, the powerful force collided with the saber ray, causing Senior Yun's arm to go numb. He couldn't hold onto the saber's hilt anymore.
After Mei Dong Er slapped out with her palm, her body moved forward in coordination with her footsteps. She punched Senior Yun's right shoulder with her left hand. His entire body was instantly sent flying and fell outside the arena.
The entire match only took a few breaths of time. It was simple and clear without any sloppiness. Everyone who was watching was stunned for a moment. Following that, the entire arena applauded and cheered.
Mei Dong Er's expression was calm. She didn't even pant for a moment. She stood there quietly after sending out palm after palm. Under the applause of the entire arena, she bowed and said, "Thank you, Senior Yun, for letting me win."
