The Xu Clan of Yuanzhou had three armies – the Divine Sword, the Falling Star, and the Cavalry.

The Falling Star army was entirely made up of archers, whose powerful bows could shower arrows from ten li and obliterate everything in their path, razing cities and destroying beasts, compelling numerous tribes to admit defeat.

The core strength of the Falling Star army was the Yuan family, a vassal family of the Xu Clan. This ancient clan shares the same name with Yuanzhou.

Elder Xu Win couldn’t recognize Yuan Zhun, but he recognized the Falling Star Bow on his back. It reminded him of what his father, Xu Changfeng, had told him: when you arrive at the Tang family in Xiling, first, find Yuan Zhun and inquire about your aunt’s situation because only he can truthfully report on Xu Shuhui’s experiences in Xiling.

However, after he arrived in Xiling, he forgot about this task. Firstly, because he had taken too long to get there, and secondly because he didn’t expect his aunt’s status in the Tang family to go unmeasured, as if Tang Sen was a son-in-law. Under these circumstances, he naturally forgot about someone like Yuan Zhun.

However, seeing the Falling Star Bow, Elder Xu Win managed to recover his lost memories. He hurriedly helped Yuan Zhun up and said, “Why the formalities, Uncle Zhun? I am honored by your endorsement!”

When Yuan Zhun heard that Elder Xu Win remembered him, he was so touched that his body trembled. For a soldier, being remembered by the principal family is the greatest honor, especially by the one who represents Xu Clan in this generation.

“I don’t deserve such address from a young master like you! It is my life’s honor to stand by the representative of the Xu Clan!” Yuan Zhun said excitedly, thumping his chest in affirmation.

Elder Xu Win waved it off and said, “Uncle Zhun, you were already carrying me when I was a young boy. How can you not bear this address? Besides, my Aunt was married off and destitute, I am indebted to you for the care you have provided over the years. Even if my father were here, he would insist on me paying you the respect of a junior.”

The elite sons of noble families each dominate their respective areas. Even if Elder Xu Win is not adept at plots and strategies, he still understands that a good leader knows how to use others’ talents and how to win people’s hearts, which is more than enough.

Hearing these words, Yuan Zhun was so moved that he was trembling all over, his eyes filled with tears. Even if Elder Xu Win wanted him to kill the Fierce Realm at this moment, he wouldn’t hesitate.

This is the noble family’s art of royal leadership.

“Uncle Zhun, don’t exert too much effort during the challenge. If the challenger can withstand a single arrow from the Falling Star, consider it a pass. This time, my main purpose is to let the warriors of Xiling witness the martial arts techniques of the noble clan. If all the challengers were blocked by you, it would discredit my plans,” Elder Xu Win said laughingly to Yuan Zhun.

He had initially hoped Tang Luo to be his stand-in. This cousin, despite his young age, was very skilled. Having him as the stand-in would help Elder Xu Win eliminate many Mortal Realm warriors. But now changing it to Yuan Zhun with his Mortal Realm peak cultivation, even the strongest contenders of Xiling would be blasted if he unleashed his full power. Even in the arena, shooting a dozen arrows in an instant was not an issue, and who in Xihng could resist it?

These words were not only a statement, but also a flattery to Yuan Zhun, undoubtedly making this military man more agreeable.

Yuan Zhun saluted to Elder Xu Win and said, “Understood!

They both walked out from behind the stage and arrived at the center of the martial arts field.

At this moment, the Shura Martial Arts Arena was already bursting with people. The spectator stands that could seat thousands were packed to full capacity, and tens of thousands of people were angrily shouting and cursing at the huge stage.

The steward accepting registrations did not turn down any Mortal Realm warriors who were inflamed by the crowd. As long as you wished to sign up, they would note down your name and give you a number plate. When your number is called, you would directly enter the stage. In a short time, the steward had already accepted registrations from over five hundred Mortal Realm warriors.

Such a challenge that spanned the whole city was the most controversial martial arts method, let alone the pair of extremely arrogant couplets hanging on the beam:

“Who can resist the hand that suppresses five hundred counties of Longzhou; Beneath Fierce Realm stands the unrivaled Elder Win of the Xu Clan!”

Any hot-blooded man seeing such a provocative notice would wish nothing more than to take off his sleeves and face it, let alone martial artists of the Mortal Realm. As Old Master Xu anticipated, even if the Xu Family is a sacred place in the world, it could not pose much of a threat to these current martial artists.

After all, martial arts is a path of development. In ancient times, the Human Race could become sanctified by reaching the King Realm, while these days, a powerful King Realm warrior would be nothing more than a local lord controlling a few cities. Which of the large sects today does not have one or two from the King Realm foundation?

To these martial artists, the legends of the sacred places are too distant, so distant that they even have the illusion that the sacred places are all antiquated. They mistakenly believe that the outcome of a fight is still uncertain. It is this that Old Master Xu saw, leading him to hurriedly change the style of navigating in the world.

Therefore, when he and Yuan Jun appeared, they were greeted with a chorus of boos!

The young swordsman, dressed in white, had a smile in his peach blossom eyes, as if he was being welcomed not with boos and curses, but with cheers. Yuan Jun, on the other hand, was trembling with rage from the deafening boos. He couldn’t believe that this crowd of ignoramuses would dare treat the world traveler from the family of the sacred ones with such contempt. As the saying goes, if the master is insulted, the servant must die. Yuan Jun’s killing intent was soaring!

As he was about to string his bow, he heard Old Master Xu advise, “Why bother getting angry, Uncle Zhun? If they weren’t this stupid today, wouldn’t my move seem foolish and ostentatious?”

“But they…” Yuan Jun angrily wanted to say something, but was stopped by Old Master Xu’s waving hand.

“Let one group die, then they will know how to treat my Xu family of Yuanzhou.” Old Master Xu’s eyes were brimming with laughter as he said this lightly.

The family of the sacred ones never relied on reason to gain respect, even during the darkest times of the human race. They relied solely on absolute power which could easily destroy everything.

These ignorant martial artists before him would only understand what true respect is under the threat of death!

Yuan Jun held back his anger, nodded heavily, and jumped onto the stage.

“I am Yuan Jun, from the Falling Star army of the Xu Clan of Yuanzhou. Who is here to teach me?” His spiritual power vibrated his vocal cords, overshadowing thousands of screaming spectators, causing some untrained civilians’ eardrums to ache painfully. Standing in the middle of the stage with his bow, Yuan Jun exuded a chilling vibe, like a cold-hearted god of death.

The crowd’s screams and boos were silenced due to Yuan Jun’s shouting, bringing the whole martial arts field into sudden silence. Then, followed by an even louder roar and uproar.

They simply couldn’t believe that a mere low-ranking warrior could be so arrogant!

The martial artist holding the number one sign shielded himself with his energy, and flew onto the stage, his eyes filled with anger.

“I am Gongye Yan, master of the Hundred Rivers Flying Palm! Do you act so arrogantly because you believe there is no one in Xiling who can match you?” Gongye Yan, wearing a brocade robe without sleeves, was huge and muscular. With the robe open, two gigantic abs and a pair of robust arms as thick as a normal man’s leg are revealed. His impressive veins and muscles hinted that his martial arts prowess lies in his powerful hands.

Gongye Yan also manipulated his spiritual power to vibrate his vocal cords. Although his roar was not as loud as Yuan Jun’s, it echoed throughout the field, unleashing the spectator’s feelings with a loud cheer. Its volume eclipsed everything else!

Those who recognized Gongye Yan were even more excited, repeatedly shrieking with anticipation. This is because he is a top-ranked fighter from the Balyan Martial Arts Hall. His mastery over the Hundred Rivers Flying Palm was exceptional, and he was also blessed with inborn divine strength, even within the Mortal Realm, he was renowned for his toughness!

With him fighting, they were sure the opponent’s arrogance could be put down, teaching them just how powerful the martial artists of Xihng were..
