As time elapsed, all the seats in the martial arts arena were fully occupied. Even the front row seats were filled with the younger generation of the Xiao Clan led by Xiao Feng.
Xiao Dingtian and the others were seated on the elder seats that were suspended high in the air. Seated on the main seat was the Clan Leader, Xiao Yuheng, who was rarely seen. However, what surprised most of the people was the elder seated beside him. It was the Xiao Clan's First Elder, Xiao Zhen.
If it was in the past, the First Elder would not participate despite the clan gathering being a rare grand event for the younger generation in the clan. This time around, even he had appeared. From this, it could be seen that the value of this clan gathering had already reached quite a high level. This also caused quite a number of people to subconsciously associate it with Xiao Yan.
"Even the First Elder is standing up for Xiao Yan. It seems like he thinks highly of him!"
"The relationship between Xiao Yan and the three people in charge of the Inner Pavilion cannot be considered harmonious. This time around, they have stepped forward to help him relieve some pressure. After all, with the First Elder around, even Xiao Dingtian, who is in charge of the Inner Pavilion, would have to restrain himself a little."
"Tsk, you don't know the whole story. Although the First Elder is standing up for Xiao Yan, his real motive should be for the Second Young Lady. Among the younger generation of the clan, the Second Young Lady's strength is extremely strong. Moreover, I heard that she has already become a rank 7 alchemist. Heh, there will be a good show to watch."
The people in the viewing gallery discussed one after another. However, when they mentioned the so called second young miss of the clan, their faces involuntarily revealed an expression of admiration. This was especially the case when the latter's status as a rank 7 alchemist was mentioned. Almost everyone present thought of Xiao Yan at the same time. The latter had just successfully refined a rank 7 medicinal pill two months ago. He was also a genuine rank 7 alchemist. If the two of them were to meet, it was likely that it would not be easy for them to end up in a friendly manner.
Clan head Xiao Yuheng frowned slightly as he looked at the row of empty seats in front of the viewing gallery below from the Elder's Seats. Suspicion involuntarily rose in his heart. Xiao Yan, Xiao Xuan, and the rest had yet to appear even at this moment. This involuntarily caused him to be quietly worried.
First Elder Xiao Zhen by the side had also sensed this and was similarly curious in his heart. He might be able to understand why Xiao Yan was not present. However, Xiao Xuan had always respected the clan. Unless there was an important reason, the latter would definitely not be late for such a grand occasion.
"Cough, cough …"
At this moment, a faint cough infused with Genesis Qi sounded in everyone's ears. Immediately, the noisy chatter swiftly died down. Moments later, the entire place was completely silent. Countless gazes turned towards the elder seating area, awe surging in their gazes.
As the top figures of the clan, it was indeed rare for them to gather in this place. Even some of the clan's elders had to maintain a respectful attitude when they saw such a scene, let alone the young disciples.
At this moment, Xiao Dingtian stood up, his turbid old eyes slowly scanning the entire place. He paused for a moment when his gaze swept past a certain spot before withdrawing his gaze. A smile appeared on his old face as he said indifferently, "Since everyone is here, everyone has gathered.
"Since everyone is here, time waits for no man. Let the clan meeting officially begin!"
"Hua!"
As his voice faded, the countless young disciples of the Xiao clan on the spectator stands below immediately responded with eager faces. The uproar was even louder than before, almost soaring into the sky.
In the elder seating area, Xiao Dingtian smiled in satisfaction. He gently pressed his hands into the air, and an invisible pressure immediately swept across the entire place. The atmosphere gradually stabilized, and Xiao Dingtian continued with a smile.
"According to the rules of the clan gathering, the battle zones will be divided into three groups according to one's cultivation level: Origin king, Origin Emperor, and Origin Ancestor. The Origin king battle will start first, and the final fifty winners will receive rewards from the clan. The top ten will have the right to challenge the Origin Emperor stage, and if they win, the corresponding rewards will be doubled. Origin Emperor, Origin Ancestor, and so on."
"Remember, the clan gathering is only used to evaluate the strength of all the participants, and it is meant to temper your battle experience. The elders assembly also hopes that you will be able to obtain the greatest amount of growth from each other's battles, and not kill for the sake of obtaining rewards. I hope that you will stop when necessary, or don't blame the elders assembly for being merciless."
"Now, the first match of the clan gathering, the ten Origin king battles, begin!"
The instant the last word left Xiao Dingtian's mouth, a large group of figures immediately leapt onto the stage, covering the sky and covering the earth. The atmosphere instantly became tense.
The clan gathering had begun!
At the same time, within the Xiao clan, in Xiao Yan's courtyard, Xiao Xuan and Lian 'er were standing outside the secret room with a frown. They looked at the secret room that remained silent for a long time, and both of them became slightly nervous.
Suddenly, Xiao Xuan's gaze shifted, and he looked in the direction of the battle zone. He couldn't help but take a deep breath, and then he slowly exhaled as he clenched his teeth.
"The clan gathering has already begun."
Lian 'er's eyes flashed when she heard that. She looked over as well, and then she let out a sigh of relief. Her gaze returned to the tightly shut door of the secret room, and a wisp of urgency appeared in her eyes. She paused for a moment before saying,
"Fortunately, it's only the Origin King battles today. I hope we can make it in time."
"Girl, tomorrow is the Origin King battles, and the Third Elder registered for you. You should at least go and take a look today. Otherwise, you'll be at a disadvantage if you don't know the rules."
Xiao Xuan couldn't bear it when he saw Lian 'er's face filled with worry. Lian' er being able to participate in the Xiao clan gathering could be considered as the Xiao clan's acknowledgment of her. When Xiao Yan entered the clan in the future, Lian 'er would be able to avoid those strange gazes. But now, she insisted on staying here, hoping to personally see Xiao Yan come out of seclusion.
"What is it? Xiao Yan is actually still refining medicinal pills at such a time?"
Right at this moment, a clear female voice suddenly sounded in front of the courtyard. Their gazes instantly shifted, and they happened to see a man and a woman standing outside the door. The man's figure was tall, and there was a hint of firmness between his brows. The woman wore a tight red dress, and her curvaceous figure was completely revealed. Her pair of snow-white long legs were boldly exposed in the air, and it was even more eye-catching.
At this moment, what surprised Xiao Xuan the most was that the aura of these two people were actually above the Five Star Source Ancestor level!
