In the Meng Clan's seating area, all the members of the Meng Clan looked at Qin Xiaoyou, who was on the battle platform, with gloomy expressions. The Huo Clan had actually produced such a talented young lady, which was indeed unexpected. They had originally thought that the Huo Clan had gradually declined, but now it seemed that it was not the case at all.
"That young lady seems to be called Qin Xiaoyou. How is she related to the Huo Family?"
The leader of the Meng Family, Meng Hongbo, said with a gloomy face. Yesterday, at the Huo Family's courtyard, he had lost all face. Naturally, he didn't have a good impression of the Huo Family. He directly regarded the Huo Family as an enemy family. Now that the Huo Family was becoming more and more prosperous, he naturally didn't feel good in his heart.
"I don't know. I've never heard of this girl before. It seems like she suddenly appeared in the Huo family."
An elder of the Meng Clan shook his head, his eyes filled with doubt. Logically speaking, the five aristocratic families understood each other very well. They all had a rough idea of each other's standards. However, the Huo Clan's performance this time was indeed surprising. Not only did Huo Changxing, who had just returned from overseas, have Cultivation at the pinnacle of the Qi Nucleation realm, but an unknown young girl who had appeared out of nowhere was also so extraordinary.
"If Meng Guo didn't die, with his cultivation, he definitely wouldn't be much weaker than that young girl. It's really hateful."
The other middle-aged man clenched his fists tightly. His face was twisted and his eyes were filled with hatred. He was Meng Guo's biological father and had always been proud of Meng Guo's talent, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen. One could imagine the blow to him.
Now, he could not wait to tear Mo Wen into pieces. However, with the protection of the Huo Clan and the Wang Clan, he could not do anything.
"Don't worry. This enmity will be avenged sooner or later. Moreover, not only the brat called Mo Wen, but also the Wang Clan and the Huo Clan."
Meng Hongbo said with a cold expression, his eyes filled with malice.
The other members of the Meng Family looked at each other. The Old Master spoke so decisively. Did he have a plan? If it really happened, it would be a major event that would shake up the capital's ancient martial arts world.
It wasn't just the Meng Clan. In the Qin Clan's spectator seats, the expressions of the Qin Clan members were even more interesting.
Qin Xiaoyou was a member of the Qin Clan, but now she was fighting for the Huo Clan and turning against the Qin Clan. One could well imagine the feeling.
"That little bitch is simply disgraceful. Could it be that she doesn't know who her ancestors are?!"
An old man from the Qin Clan slammed the table angrily. Not long ago, Qin Xiaoyou had just knocked a genius from the Qin Clan out of the challenge ring. To the Qin Clan, it was naturally a very embarrassing thing.
She was just an abandoned daughter of the family, but there would actually be a day when she would turn around and slap the face of the family.
"Don't make it sound so righteous. What you did back then was hidden from the old master and the other clansmen. Otherwise, how could this have happened? Perhaps if we had treated them better back then, the result would have been completely different. "
Another member of the Qin Clan sneered coldly. Clearly, he didn't get along with the person who had spoken earlier. It was very normal for there to be internal conflicts in large clans and clans.
"Now that things have come to this, there's no need for you to make sarcastic remarks. I don't think that little slut is a good person. With her current talent, if she continues to grow, there's no guarantee that she won't act against the Qin Clan. In my opinion, finding an opportunity to get rid of this girl is the best plan. "
The person who had spoken earlier did not argue with the other member of the Qin Clan. This was because he also knew that they were indeed in the wrong for what they had done. They had assassinated Qin Xiaoyou's father, Qin Yi, and taken away their family property. With such a huge grudge, whether they treated the mother and daughter well or not would be meaningless.
"What you said makes some sense. This girl indeed deserves to be killed. Otherwise, she will be a threat to the Qin Clan in the future. She can no longer be considered a member of the Qin Clan. There's no need to care about feelings. "
The other person also nodded, agreeing with the previous person's point of view, which was rare. After all, the talent that Qin Xiaoyou had displayed had caused them to be fearful. Nurturing a tiger was a big taboo. A large clan that could last for hundreds of years relied on more than just their deep abilities.
"Don't worry. Those who go against the Qin Clan won't live for long."
The Qin old master glanced at the few clansmen and nodded slightly. He was rather satisfied. Being ruthless and decisive was a necessary quality for a clan manager. If one was indecisive and sentimental, he would definitely not be a qualified leader.
"What does the old master mean?"
The few people in charge of the Qin Clan were shocked when they heard this. They looked at the old master one after another. The words just now were not simple. They could vaguely guess the meaning behind it.
"Just wait and see. Those who go against the Qin Clan won't be able to live for long. As for that girl … Hmm, it's indeed a pity. However, since things have come to this, there's no need to care about any feelings. Anyone who is a threat to the clan, no matter who he is, has only one outcome — kill without mercy! "
The Qin Great Grandfather said coldly. A chilling aura emanated from his body and the surrounding air abruptly turned cold. The few people sitting beside him shivered even though they were not cold. The coldness that was born from the depths of their hearts caused them to feel uncontrollably terrified.
Unknowingly, the Yin Qi on the old master's body had become heavier and heavier. It was like an ice cave. Many a time, the clansmen did not dare to get too close to the old master. Compared to his previous amiability, it was two extremes.
"Old master, that girl is easy to deal with. She only has Sea of Qi realm Cultivation and has not fully grown. She definitely can't be compared to Qiao 'er, who is in the Qi Nucleation realm. Later on in the fighting ring, there might be a chance to get rid of her."
A short, shifty-eyed middle-aged man from the Qin Clan said.
"Oh! What do you mean? "
The Qin old master glanced at that person. His eyes flashed, as if he had thought of something.
"That's right. Qin Qiao has Qi Nucleation realm Cultivation. No matter how high a Sea of Qi realm girl's Cultivation is, she can't possibly be Qin Qiao's match. If Qin Qiao and that girl meet in battle, then the result …"
The short, middle-aged man laughed sinisterly. The Qin Clan had Qin Qiao, who could compete for the top position of the Ten Finest Talents. Would they be afraid of that girl? There was a big realm difference between the two of them. The difference in ability was simply insurmountable.
"What you mean is that we should take action during the Martial Arts Competition and ask Qin Qiao to kill that girl?" Another member of the Qin Clan couldn't help but ask.
"That's right. We should get rid of this hidden danger as soon as possible to prevent any undue delay," the short, middle-aged man said plainly.
"Killing people in the fighting ring isn't very good, right? In the previous Martial Arts Symposiums, it was strictly forbidden to kill each other. If we do this, it will inevitably attract some controversy and public opinion, "an elder in his fifties said worriedly. Doing this would be a blatant violation of the rules of the Martial Arts Symposium.
"What are you afraid of? It's just an accident. In the fighting ring, accidents are very common. Moreover, it's not like it hasn't happened before. So what if we kill that girl? With our Qin Clan's current power, even if those people know that the Qin Clan is doing this on purpose, who would dare to make irresponsible remarks? Don't forget, our Qin Clan is no worse than the Bi Clan now. Even if the Bi Clan wants to target us, they would have to consider it carefully. "
The short, middle-aged man laughed sinisterly. The clan great grandfather had successfully broken through to the Embryonic Breathing realm. Now, who in the Qin Clan wasn't full of confidence? Who would they be afraid of? The Bi Clan was different from the Qin Clan now. They didn't dare to do it in the past, but that didn't mean they didn't dare to do it now.
"I like people with courage. I'll give you guys a low recommendation. In this Capital Martial Arts Symposium, you guys can do whatever you want with boldness and peace of mind. Not long after, the entire Capital's ancient martial arts world will belong to our Qin Clan."
The Qin Clan great grandfather nodded at the short, middle-aged man, seemingly very satisfied with him. Being overcautious was not the Qin Clan's style. In the past, they weren't afraid of anyone. Now, there was even less of a need to be afraid of anything.
When the few people in charge of the Qin Clan heard this, they immediately had a plan. At the same time, they were secretly happy. They knew that their previous guess was right. Something big was about to happen. Although the great grandfather didn't tell them, they already had some premonitions. After all, being born in the Qin Clan, they would more or less know some things.
"In the following Ten Finest Talents Competition, if that girl is ambitious and wants to fight for the top three, she will definitely meet Qin Qiao. At that time … "
The short, middle-aged man laughed sinisterly. Even if Qin Qiao didn't meet that girl in the previous battles, he would definitely meet her in the battle of the top four. He believed that with that girl's ability, she would definitely not give up the fight for the top three.
…
In the morning, this year's Ten Finest Talents Competition had all been selected. The ten most outstanding youths in the Capital's ancient martial arts world were the focus of everyone's attention. After the meal, everyone discussed enthusiastically, explaining the ten outstanding youths.
Among the Ten Finest Talents Competition, the five aristocratic families alone occupied six spots. Among them, the Bi Clan and the Qin Clan each occupied two spots, the Wang Clan had one, and the Huo Clan had one. Only the Meng Clan didn't have a single Ten Finest Talents Competition candidate due to Meng Guo's death. As one of the five aristocratic families, the younger generation actually didn't have a Ten Finest Talents Competition. This kind of thing was very rare in previous Martial Arts Symposiums.
The other four spots were all taken by the disciples of the aristocratic families second only to the five aristocratic families. The younger generation of those small ancient martial arts aristocratic families were almost all eliminated. From this, it could be seen that an ancient martial arts practitioner's talent was very important. However, practicing resources were just as important as talent. Small aristocratic families lacked resources. Even if they could produce talented clansmen, it would be very difficult to groom them.
This year's Ten Finest Talents Competition was naturally Qin Xiaoyu. She was known as this year's biggest dark horse and had surprised everyone. Who would have thought that an unknown young girl would actually be able to snatch a spot in the Ten Finest Talents Competition?
As a result, not only did the aristocratic families who had intended to fight for the Ten Finest Talents Competition make a mistake, but many of the people who had set up bets also made a big mistake. The number of gambling dens that had gone bankrupt because of this matter could be counted on one hand.
The morning's Ten Finest Talents Competition had ended. In the afternoon, there would be a ranking battle of the Ten Finest Talents. This battle attracted a lot of attention, because the ten most outstanding geniuses of the Capital's ancient martial arts world would compete and choose the person with the most ability and talent.
