Time passed, and half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
In these ten days, Lin Yun refined a large number of tenth-grade elixirs, forcibly smashing Lin Ying's cultivation to the realm of a third-grade Martial Warrior.
Even Zhang Wei, who swore loyalty to Lin Yun, was smashed to the realm of a second-grade Martial Warrior.
Out of gratitude and guilt, Lin Yun also refined a large number of elixirs for Yun Ruoxi, forcibly raising Yun Ruoxi's realm to the realm of a seventh-grade Martial Warrior.
And Lin Yun's own realm also rose to the realm of a seventh-grade Martial Warrior.
Not only that, Lin Yun also collected all the Infant Soul Grass that could be collected in Yuzhou during this time. This also included the hundred Infant Soul Grass in the Yuzhou Martial House's storehouse.
After using the essence of the Infant Soul Grass to nourish his body, Lin Yun had already cultivated the Indestructible Divine Body to the proficient stage of the Diamond Body.
The Diamond Body was divided into four stages: Entry, Initial Success, Proficient, and Great Success.
And Lin Yun had already cultivated to the third stage, the next step was the Great Success.
And now, the Infant Soul Grass in Yuzhou County had already been purchased by Lin Yun, and there were no more left.
If Lin Yun wanted to continue cultivating the Indestructible Divine Body, he had to leave Yuzhou and set out for the Royal City!
……
On the eve of the end of the month, Lin Yun and Yun Ruoxi were both called to the Conference Pavilion by Tan Qian. The content of the discussion was related to the Royal City Martial Arts Conference.
The Royal City Martial Arts Conference was held once every three years. The purpose of the conference was to select talents for the kingdom.
Those who were selected were directly made generals and became the pillars of the kingdom.
Every Martial Arts Conference, the young geniuses of the various counties in the Southern Summer King Kingdom, as well as the top geniuses of the three great families of the kingdom, would gather together and compete with each other. The scene was grand and magnificent.
Each county's martial house had four participants.
The four participants from Yuzhou County were originally the four geniuses of Yuzhou led by Kang Nam-gun.
However, the affairs of the world were unpredictable. No one had expected that Lin Yun would appear midway and kill three of the four great geniuses, leaving only Yun Ruoxi.
Lin Yun and Yun Ruoxi were the only ones who could participate in the Royal City Martial Arts Competition.
Apart from Lin Yun and Yun Ruoxi, the other two spots could only be filled by two top-notch inner disciples.
These two people were Yuan Xiaofeng and Hu Jin. They had also been sent to Jeju before. Now that he was in his early twenties, he had just broken through to the late sixth level.
When the four of them stood in front of Ren Tanqian, Ren Tanqian solemnly said to the four of them, "Every Monarch City Martial Competition is filled with experts and geniuses. rdquo;
"According to Yu Province's standards, you are indeed top-notch geniuses. But according to Monarch City's standards, you are very ordinary. Therefore, you must not be careless and underestimate your opponents in Monarch City's Martial Arts Competition. rdquo;
"Ordinary? Could it be that even Lin Yun and Miss Yun Ruoxi can only be considered ordinary? Yuan Xiaofeng was very surprised to hear this.
If he was said to be ordinary, he had nothing to say. But if Lin Yun and Yun Ruoxi could only be considered ordinary, then what was he?
Hearing Yuan Xiaofeng's words, Ren Tanqian chuckled. "You are a frog at the bottom of a well. rdquo;
It would be nonsense to say that Lin Yun was ordinary.
But if it was Yun Ruoxi, compared to the geniuses of Monarch City, then she really seemed ordinary.
Ren Tanqian had enough confidence in Lin Yun's strength. But as for the other three, he had no confidence at all.
After pausing for a moment, Ren Tanqian continued, "The Southern Summer King's eight provinces and prefectures pay tribute to Monarch City every year. 90% of the resources are used to maintain the national treasury, and the remaining 9% are provided to the kingdom's three great clans. rdquo;
"Only less than 1% of the resources are distributed to the various prefectures and prefectures' martial houses. When the eight prefectures and prefectures' martial houses divide the resources, each martial house can only receive 1/1000 of the total amount of the tribute! rdquo;
"And the kingdom's three great clans, each clan can receive up to 3% of the resources. rdquo;
"1/1000 and 3%. This is the difference between you and the kingdom's three great clans' geniuses. rdquo;
"With a difference of 30 times in terms of resources, even if your cultivation talent is the same, you are still far inferior to them. Moreover, the cultivation talent of those geniuses in Monarch City is above yours. rdquo;
Hearing Ren Tanqian's words, Yuan Xiaofeng finally had nothing to say. He could only silently accept this cruel reality.
Ren Tanqian continued, "Let me tell you about the specifics of the Royal City Martial Arts Tournament first. rdquo;
"Every prefecture's martial house will send four disciples to participate. The eight prefectures and prefectures will have a total of 32 people. rdquo;
"And the kingdom's three great clans, as well as the various great clans of Monarch City, will also send 100 geniuses to participate. rdquo;
"Almost all of those 100 geniuses have reached the eighth rank, and even the ninth rank! rdquo;
"Especially the top geniuses of the three great clans. They have all broken through to the Martial Master realm and awakened Martial Spirits of the Heaven realm. They are known as the" three great monsters of the kingdom "by the Southern Summer King. rdquo;
"Any one of them can easily defeat a fourth rank martial master. Even if they were to face a fifth rank martial master, or even a sixth rank martial master, they would still have the strength to fight. rdquo;
Hearing Ren Tanqian's words, Yuan Xiaofeng and Hu Jin were instantly dumbfounded. They felt as if their world had been refreshed.
In Yuzhou, they were all top geniuses. Whether it was talent or strength, they were only second to the core disciples.
However, at this moment, they deeply realized exactly how mediocre their natural endowments were, and they probably couldn't even be considered as ordinary.
Ren Tanqian continued, "In the past Monarch City Martial Assembly, the top 20 places were always monopolized by the core disciples of the three major clans. From the 20th to the 50th place, they were all taken by the inner disciples of the three great clans. rdquo;
"As for the disciples of the eight prefectures' Martial House, being able to squeeze into the top 100 is already very good. rdquo;
Tan Qian's words were like a bucket of cold water splashed on them, extinguishing Yuan Xiaofeng and Hu Jin's fighting spirit.
The disciples of the Eight Prefectures and Counties naturally referred to the Core Disciples. Even core disciples found it difficult to squeeze into the top 100, then wouldn't they, the inner court disciples, be at the bottom?
He had come all the way to Royal City, only to become someone else's stepping stone. Wasn't this equivalent to losing face?
After giving some instructions, Ren Tanqian solemnly said to everyone, "The Monarch City Martial Tournament will officially be held in three days. Go back and pack up tonight. We will set off early tomorrow morning. rdquo;
The few of them nodded, and after bidding farewell to Ren Tanqian, they all returned to their own residences.
Lin Yun packed his things that night and entrusted Lin Ying to the Yuzhou Marquis for protection.
This trip to the Heavenly Profound Sect might bring them some trouble.
Lin Ying's strength was too weak, and he didn't even have the basic ability to protect himself.
If Lin Yun brought her along, it would definitely be very inconvenient.
In Yuzhou City, the three great clans had already been destroyed, and there were no more forces that could oppose Lin Yun.
