The Mountain River Stage had gathered all the young heroes of the Southern Sector. Some of them appreciated each other, some of them didn't like each other no matter how they looked at each other. There were also some who fanned the flames and sat on the stage calmly. At this moment, the top young heroes of the younger generation had formed a small Jianghu.
From the east, a chilling aura blew over. Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked over.
On the small island next to the lake, a tall and slender beauty with long black hair and eyebrows all the way to her temples walked over. She was wearing a sky blue dress, and her shoulders were slightly broad. Her aura was quite strong, and her charm was not lacking in gentleness, and her gentleness was not lacking in aggressiveness. If one had to describe her, she was like a Valkyrie, a female emperor, a contradiction between gentleness and aggressiveness. Every man could find a side of her that they liked.
She was none other than the Thunder Princess, whose fame had gradually surpassed the Edict Prince, the host of this Martial Tea Gathering.
"Everyone, Jing Aoxuan has arrived a bit late. My apologies." The Thunder Princess, who was wearing a sky blue dress, walked onto the Mountain River Stage. Her eyes were as sharp as thunder as she looked around and cupped her fists.
"What a heroine, a female emperor!"
Ye Chen had said two things in total when he arrived at the Mountain River Stage. The first was the Mountain River Stage, and the second was the Thunder Princess. It was easy to see how strong the feeling she gave him was.
"Not at all, not at all. We've only just arrived."
"Princess Jing, how have you been?"
"Since the host is here, then the Martial Tea Gathering should begin!"
Everyone was being polite, exchanging greetings. Of course, there were also some who couldn't wait.
The Thunder Princess nodded and said, "Just like the previous times, everyone please take a seat according to your region!"
The Mountain River Stage had a total of hundreds of pavilions. Inside each pavilion were tables and chairs, giving off an ancient feeling. Beside them, there were also well-trained and beautiful attendants.
Hearing this, the young elites of each domain gathered together and chose a few neighboring pavilions to sit down. Ye Chen and the others chose three pavilions in the south and sat down separately.
Glancing over, Ye Chen noticed that Sikong Sheng and the two young men in black robes had chosen a pavilion nearby. Gu Youyun was sitting with them, and as for Li Jie, he had not reached the qualification to enter the Mian Xiu Garden yet. Looking at it this way, not counting the two men in black robes, including Sikong Sheng, there were only seventeen warriors from the entire southern region. It was obvious that they were the side with the least number of warriors.
The Mountain Region had about the same number of people as the South Rudra Region. There were twenty people in total. Among these twenty people, it was obvious that the young man in the white robe and the young man in the blue robe were the leaders. The rest of them were not as powerful.
Besides the South Rudra Region and the Mountain Region, the other regions would be one level higher. Among them, the Black Gold Region, the Wavy Cloud Region, and the Misty Snow Region would be one level higher, with thirty-five, forty, and thirty-eight people respectively. The other two regions outside of the South Region would be the Fire Swamp Region and the Snow Iron Region. The Fire Swamp Region would have thirty-six people while the Snow Iron Region would have forty-two.
Going up another level would be another level.
The Gold Sand Region, where the Astral Spirit son was, had fifty-five people.
The Edict Prince's Floating Light Region had sixty people.
The region with the most people was naturally the Thunder Region, which had seventy-eight people and occupied fifteen pavilions.
All in all, there would be young elites from ten regions participating in this tea gathering: Thunder Region, Floating Light Region, Gold Sand Region, Wavy Cloud Region, Misty Snow Region, Black Gold Region, Mountain Region, South Rudra Region, Fire Swamp Region, and Snow Iron Region. This might not be accurate, because the two black-robed young men with Sikong Sheng were obviously not young elites from any of the regions.
In Ye Chen's pavilion, there were only three people: Ye Chen, Tuo Baku, and a new top genius from the South Rudra Region called Mu Lingfeng. Mu Lingfeng was not a disciple of a sixth grade sect, but a seventh grade sect. In the last Hidden Dragon Ranking, he had also amazed the world with a single brilliant feat, obtaining the third rank of the Hidden Dragon Ranking, which simply shocked everyone. As for Murong Qingcheng, she was sitting in another pavilion. She was, after all, a disciple of the Sky Demon Martial School, so she had to sit with the people of the Sky Demon Martial School. Moreover, Mo Yan and Ye Chen didn't get along well.
Although he was the representative of the Sky Demon Martial School, Mu Lingfeng didn't have any temper in front of Ye Chen, and was even somewhat restrained. It should be known that Ye Chen was not much older than him, only a year and a half difference. It was just that Ye Chen had made his debut one year earlier than him.
Tuo Baku chuckled and said to Mu Lingfeng, "Relax, it's not like he's going to eat you."
Hearing him, Mu Lingfeng smiled awkwardly. He didn't know what was going on with him. Sitting together with Ye Chen, he felt a lot of pressure. Others didn't feel the same way, not even Tuo Baku.
Ye Chen smiled at him and didn't say anything.
The table was filled with all kinds of desserts and fruits. Some of the desserts and fruits were unheard of. There was also a beautiful attendant brewing tea. The strong fragrance of tea wafted through the air. With just a sniff, one would feel the endless aftertaste and feel relaxed and happy.
Right then, the voice of the Thunder Princess was heard from afar.
"The Martial Tea Gathering is held once every two years. It is a gathering for everyone to exchange pointers. I hope that everyone will not be too reserved. Sipping tea while watching others battle, wouldn't that be a wonderful thing?"
Edict Prince, the host of the last tea gathering, continued, "What the Thunder Princess said is correct. Those who can participate in the Martial Tea Gathering are all outstanding talents. Since you are here, don't bother about winning or losing. What you need to worry about is whether you have comprehended something or not, whether you have improved or not. This is the true purpose of the Martial Tea Gathering."
"Since the Thunder Princess and the Edict Prince have said so, let me start. I am Black Gold Region's Hua Feng. Who is willing to battle with me?"
Hua Feng was not worried about the appearance of a young elite whose strength was much higher than his. The Martial Tea Gathering would be held in this place. Before going up to battle, he would first estimate his opponent's strength. If he felt that he was about the same level as his opponent, then he would go up. If he felt that he was much stronger, then he would not go up at all. So what if he won? The opponent was not the Edict Prince or the Thunder Princess.
"I, Lin Yinghao of the Misty Snow Region, will battle you."
Shoo!
From the pavilion of the Misty Snow Region, a figure shot out.
"Please advise me!"
"Please advise me!"
The two were dozens of meters away from each other as they cupped their fists. Suddenly, their gazes sharpened as they stared at each other without blinking, looking for an opportunity to attack.
He!
Hua Feng took the initiative and attacked.
Lin Yinghao did not dare to be careless as he raised his sword to meet the attack.
One of them used a hammer, while the other used a sword. The two were locked in a fierce battle, causing the air to vibrate.
In the end, it was still Hua Feng who came out on top and won the first battle of the Martial Tea Gathering.
With a start, the rest was easy. The young elites of each domain appeared one after another, sometimes even having two or three matches at the same time. Gorgeous true essence reflected a rainbow of colors, and wonderful martial skills appeared one after another. It was incomparably gorgeous. Everyone in the pavilion was drinking tea as they watched the matches; it was a very pleasant sight.
During this time, a few people from the South Rudra Region also stepped up. They were all famous young geniuses of this year. However, the gap between them and the geniuses from other regions was too huge. Without exception, all of them lost, which made Yan Chihuo and the others faintly crease their brows.
"Haha, is there no one in your South Rudra Region? Let your strongest person come up! I will defeat him by myself. " After defeating a genius from the South Rudra Region, the yellow-haired youngster pointed at the pavilion of the South Rudra Region with an extremely arrogant expression.
All of a sudden, everyone looked in the direction of the South Rudra Region.
"There is indeed no one in the South Rudra Region! Seventeen people defeated five in a row. What can the remaining twelve do? "
"Dong Haoxiong is a famous young expert from the Gold Sand Region. Who knows, he might really be able to sweep the entire South Rudra Region."
"The South Rudra Region is too embarrassed. They are being challenged by others. I wonder if the strongest person will go up next."
Everyone discussed in low voices.
Mu Lingfeng couldn't bear it anymore. He suddenly stood up and yelled, "You want to challenge the strongest person of my South Rudra Region? Dream on! I, Mu Lingfeng, will try you."
He was just about to step up when Ye Chen sent a Zhen Yuan transmission to him, "Earlier, he used about eighty percent of his strength. Also, be careful of his blade arts. If I'm not wrong, he should be left-handed."
Mu Lingfeng was shocked inwardly. He didn't know how Ye Chen could see so much. However, a person's reputation was like a tree's shadow. With Ye Chen's status, he wouldn't ignore these words.
Shoo!
Mu Lingfeng flew over.
Clang! Clang!
Clang! Clang! Clang! His weapon was also a blade. The two blades continuously clashed together, creating dazzling sparks. The two's figures couldn't even be seen anymore.
"Eat my blade!"
Taking a step back, Dong Haoxiong switched his blade to his left hand and met the attack once again. The completely opposite blade arts made some of the spectating young experts feel very uncomfortable.
Dang!
Mu Lingfeng blocked it, but only he knew that without Ye Chen's warning, he would have most likely lost to Dong Haoxiong.
Dong Haoxiong was extremely shocked. Even in the Gold Sand Region, not many people knew about his left-handed blade. He thought that once he used his left hand, his opponent would immediately be defeated. However, he didn't expect that Mu Lingfeng would be prepared for this. Not only did he block his attack, he even counterattacked while he was distracted.
The two had similar strength, but Mu Lingfeng was a bit more skillful. Therefore, Dong Haoxiong's left hand blade lost its effectiveness, and he gradually fell into a disadvantage.
"Let go!"
A blade light flickered as Mu Lingfeng knocked away Dong Haoxiong's blade.
"Eh? He won!"
Someone was slightly surprised.
After winning against Dong Haoxiong, Mu Lingfeng sheathed his blade and said with a loud voice, "Although our South Rudra Region doesn't have many people, you don't have the qualifications."
Dong Haoxiong coldly glanced at Mu Lingfeng, then picked up his blade and walked down the stage.
"Kid, don't be too arrogant. Let me experience your skills." Feeling embarrassed, someone from the Gold Sand Region walked out.
Mu Lingfeng was not afraid at all. He knew that his chances of winning the next battle were very small. Since the opponent dared to come up, his strength must be above Dong Haoxiong's.
"Mu Lingfeng, don't panic. When this guy walks, his right foot is thirty percent heavier than his left. His muscles are purposely relaxed, so he should be training the right leg martial arts. His hands' qi and blood are more vigorous than ordinary people's, so his hand martial arts should not be weak either. Just attack his left hand with all your strength so that he won't be able to find his own rhythm. Lastly, your blade arts are somewhat messy, which should be a bit uncoordinated with your footwork. Therefore, don't casually use your speed to chase after him, lest he finds your flaws."
The one who sent the message was still Ye Chen.
Mu Lingfeng sucked in a breath of air and turned his head to look at Ye Chen.
