The Five Great Martial Houses
Shui Family.
When the higher-ups of the Shui Family heard the news, they immediately rushed into the main hall and reported to Shui Chongxian, "Family Head, Chu Xingyun has already left Town Chu and is preparing to head to Heishui City. Gu Qing Shan will be protecting him along the way."
"I already expected this, there's no need to make a fuss." Unexpectedly, Shui Chongxian smiled calmly.
"One Gu Qing Shan, one Yan Du. With the support of two Earth Spirit Realm experts, Chu Xingyun might really have a chance to be selected by the Five Great Martial Houses. At that time, our Shui Family will be in a passive position." The faces of the higher-ups of the Shui Family were pale, and their words carried a trace of panic.
As long as a martial artist enters the Earth Spirit Realm, they will be able to absorb the Yin Qi in the world and gradually comprehend all kinds of Divine Arts. Their strength will far surpass the Spirit Gathering Realm.
Even the Five Great Martial Houses would want to recruit a martial artist of this level.
The higher-ups of the Shui Family were afraid, afraid that the Five Great Martial Houses would pay more attention to Chu Xingyun because of Gu Qing Shan and Yan Du. After all, with Chu Xingyun's current strength, he does have the qualifications to be chosen by the Five Great Martial Houses.
Shui Chongxian sat on the main seat with an easy-going expression. From start to finish, he did not have the slightest trace of panic. He calmly said, "Three days ago, Qian Yue arrived at Heishui City and contacted Elder Gu. Regarding Chu Xingyun's performance in this period of time, Qian Yue told Elder Gu word for word."
"Just now, Qian Yue sent a secret message, saying that she has received Elder Gu's help and has successfully stepped into the Third Sky of Spirit Gathering Realm. Elder Gu also promised that he will not let Chu Xingyun go."
"Is Elder Gu sure to make a move?" The eyes of the higher-ups of the Shui Family lit up. Elder Gu was the host of the Martial House selection this time. If he could get Elder Gu's approval, then Chu Xingyun would definitely not be involved.
Shui Chongxian smiled and said, "As long as Elder Gu uses his authority to pit Qian Yue against Chu Xingyun in the Martial House selection, then Chu Xingyun will be declared defeated. If everything goes smoothly, killing Chu Xingyun on the spot isn't impossible."
"Since that's the case, what we need to do now is not to be alarmed, but to take inventory of all the forces in West Wind City. When Qianyue returns to her hometown in glory, we will immediately begin to annex the forces. Those who obey me will prosper, and those who oppose me will perish!"
Shui Chongxian suddenly stood up. His eyes emitted a sharp divine glow. He was in high spirits and gave off a domineering feeling.
Smiles appeared on the faces of the Shui Clan's upper echelons as they thought to themselves, "Since we have the support of the Dreamy Cloud Martial House, this time's Martial House Selection will be absolutely safe."
…
Apart from Chu Xingyun, there were also many young practitioners in West Wind City heading towards Black Water City to participate in the Martial House Selection.
The five great Martial Houses were the enormous forces of the Liuyun Dynasty. They were also the cradles for nurturing experts.
If one was able to enter the five great Martial Houses, it would be akin to a carp leaping through the dragon gate. Not only would one's status rise, one would also be able to obtain an endless supply of cultivation resources. Just the thought of it was enough to make one incomparably excited.
Apart from West Wind City, there were also many people participating in the Martial House Selection in the surrounding thirteen cities. The number was astonishing, and even before arriving at Black Water City, one could already feel the fiery atmosphere.
"So many experts, looks like this time's Martial House Selection will be very intense." Shui Liu Xiang glanced outside the window. The practitioners passing by made her feel a little nervous, and she did not dare to look straight at them.
"In this Martial House Selection, the five great Martial Houses are recruiting disciples at the same time. Naturally, many young practitioners will be attracted. However, although there are many people, it also means that the difficulty of the Martial House Selection will increase."
Gu Qing Shan rode on his horse, cautiously and conscientiously protecting Chu Xingyun and the rest as he explained, "According to the information I received, the Martial House Selection this time is divided into two major tests, one testing one's talent and one's strength. I heard that the test of talent alone is extremely strict, and the elimination rate is as high as ninety percent."
"Ninety percent, isn't this a little too strict!" Shui Liu Xiang's eyes widened as she exclaimed.
"The five great Martial Houses have been passed down for hundreds of years, and have a rich heritage. Even the Flowing Cloud Royal Family does not dare to underestimate them. Let me ask you, why would such a huge force recruit some ordinary people?" Yan Du also added at this time.
Within the Liuyun Dynasty, the five great Martial Houses were like five towering pillars. Together with the Flowing Cloud Royal Family, they supported the entire Liuyun Dynasty, causing it to become more prosperous and prosperous.
The five great Martial Houses opening the Martial House Selection at the same time was naturally incomparably strict. They all wanted to help their own Martial House recruit true geniuses.
"Brother Yun, which Martial House do you want to join?" Shui Liu Xiang looked at Chu Xingyun, a trace of curiosity in her voice.
Hearing this, Yan Du, Gu Qing Shan and the rest also looked over, wanting to know his answer.
"They're all about the same, just pick one." Chu Xingyun shrugged, his tone casual.
"Patriarch, between the five great Martial Houses, there are also differences in strength. The strongest one is the Soaring Sky Martial House. I heard that as long as one is nurtured by the Soaring Sky Martial House, a large portion of them will be able to step into the Earth Spirit Realm. Even the few Heavenly Spirit Realm experts in the Liuyun Dynasty have deep connections with the Soaring Sky Martial House."
"After the Soaring Sky Martial House is the Dreamy Cloud Martial House. This Martial House has also nurtured many experts, and most of them are disciples of prominent families in the Imperial City. In terms of influence, the Dreamy Cloud Martial House is not the slightest bit below the Soaring Sky Martial House."
"As for the Blue Wind Martial House, Jialan Martial House and Purple Sun Martial House, their influence is on par. If there's a chance, it's best to choose between the Soaring Sky Martial House and the Dreamy Cloud Martial House."
Gu Qing Shan was the Lord of a city, so he knew a lot of information about the five great Martial Houses. He naturally hoped that Chu Xingyun would be able to enter the best Soaring Sky Martial House. If not, the Dreamy Cloud Martial House was also not bad.
"I understand what you've said, but for me, it doesn't matter which Martial House I join. As long as I'm in the Imperial City, it's fine." Chu Xingyun still had that casual look on his face.
The main reason why he participated in the Martial House Selection was to join one of the five great Martial Houses and head to the Imperial City to investigate the Dreamy Cloud Martial House, as well as the tragedy that happened sixteen years ago.
As for which Martial House he joined, Chu Xingyun really didn't care.
In the eyes of ordinary people, the five great Martial Houses might be unshakable behemoths with rich resources, but in Chu Xingyun's eyes, they were at most passable and not worth praising.
