The Victory of Summer Clan

Xue Ying regained consciousness. He first saw ‘Xia Fa Yang’ from the Summer Clan who just similarly regained consciousness as with Cang Clan’s ‘General Xuan’.

“Who is first? Who is second?”

They immediately stood up and felt puzzled as well.

Because previously, they were focusing entirely on resisting against the soul assault and did not have the heart to care about the outer world. Hence, they did not know what the ranking was.

“Brother Flying Snow, you are second.” Fan San Yuan transmitted over, “What a pity that you almost got first! The three of you held on for a long time. In the end, all three of you fell down one after another, and the gap in between was small.”

Xue Ying was momentarily startled.

Second?

Xue Ying was an absolute genius in the Mirage and Illusory Realm. He also cultivated the avatar technique and broke apart the cage before absorbing the mysterious aura to nourish his soul. He was confident of getting first, yet he got second in the end! Furthermore, the gap between the top three was small, showing that the difference between them in this aspect was small.

‘I barely got first?’ Xia Fa Yang also got transmissions from his clan. He could not help but turn to the other two, feeling shocked inwardly, ‘I’ve already reached the pinnacle of Primal Chaos Realm in the Dao of Heart, and also specialized in the Dao of Array! For the sake of researching in arrays, I paid a hefty price to absorb ‘Essence of Chaotic Origin’ worth a total value of 20 billion cosmos crystals. I thought that nobody should be able to surpass me amongst those at the Primal Chaos Realm in resisting against soul techniques. Who would have thought that the two of them are comparable to me.’

Xia Fa Yang was the one that the Summer Clan favored the most.

Dao of Heart, Dao of Array…

It was very hard to reach the Cosmos God Realm in these two Dao paths! Studying in the Dao of Array was time-consuming and required much effort too! Of course, a stronger soul would naturally hasten the speed of researching on arrays. That was why Xia Fa Yang chose to disregard the price and borrowed cosmos crystals from others in the clan to absorb so much ‘Essence of Chaotic Origin’ that he spend such a hefty sum.

‘I am third?’ General Xuan frowned, ‘I finally succeeded in grasping the cultivation bestowed upon by ‘Teacher Yuan’ before breaking through to the Cosmos God Realm! Only then was I qualified to become a disciple of ‘Teacher Yuan’. My soul has reached grand perfection, yet it still lacks compared to these two. But that’s right too. In the eyes of Teacher Yuan, I barely succeeded.’

But he did not know.

Xue Ying and Xia Fa Yang. One cultivated the Mirage and Illusory Realm to the pinnacle of Primal Chaos Realm. The other developed the Dao of Heart to the pinnacle of Primal Chaos Realm. One nourished his soul by absorbing the mysterious energy from beyond the Origin World, and the other consumed a large amount of Essence of Chaotic Origin! He, General Xuan, had never deliberately cultivated in a soul-related technique, yet he could reach this stage. That’s quite unfathomable.

…

These three absolute geniuses had different thoughts.

And ‘Great Paragon Imperial Wind’, the host of this competition between the three clans announced with a smile: “The first round has ended. The winner is Xia Fa Yang from Summer Clan, second is Ying Shan Xue Ying from Fan Clan, and third is Cang Xuan from Cang Clan.

Summer Clan has now temporarily scored three golden cauldrons, the Fan Clan two golden cauldrons and Cang Clan with one golden cauldron… Haha, the next round will begin shortly.”

“The second round is a contest between the overall disciple nurturing capabilities of the three clans. 15 Primal Chaos experts from the three clans will be divided into three teams accordingly. Each group will contain one member from Summer Clan, Fan Clan, and the Cang Clan. Every group will fight within themselves, and the final victor will earn one golden cauldron. A total of five groups means five golden cauldrons.”

“Everyone should make your preparations now.”

Great Paragon Imperial Wind finished speaking.

After which, he began discussing with the two Great Paragons from Cang Clan and Fan Clan.

Each clan would be sending in an arranged list of names. Nobody knew who the other chose! Once the names are submitted, the positions would be respectively grouped accordingly—the first name would be in the first group, second in the second group and so on.

Xue Ying went back to his seat.

“Upper Honored Guest Flying Snow, you have done very well in the first round.” Monarch Andromeda said, “Currently, we are just slightly losing behind the Summer Clan. There is still the second and third round. Regardless, we have a high chance of winning. Fellow cultivators must do your utmost.”

“Yes.” Those present acknowledged.

Very soon, the name list was publicized.

“The second round will begin now.” Great Paragon Imperial Wind announced to the public. His voice sounded out within the vast palace hall, “The first group consists of Xia Wu Hua, Sauron, Cang Qing Lei. The rules are as follow: those who are thrown out of the platform will lose. Those who are saved by Emperor Summer will also lose.”

Xue Ying sat there.

The appearance order for Fan Clan is as follows: King Sauron, Fan San Yuan, Ying Shan Xue Ying, Fan Yi Qian, and Fan Mo Zhu.

“Xia Wu Hua?”

“It seems we are troubled this time.”

“The possibility of Xia Wu Hua winning this round is much higher.” Various guests were discussing. Xia Wu Hua was famous here, and King Sauron was ultimately from a distant Icy Plains tribe that originated from outside the nation. As for Cang Qing Lei, he wasn’t considered bright in the Cang Clan at all.

At the center of the palace hall.

A huge silvery-white circular battle platform had appeared there. Xia Wu Hua, Sauron, and Cang Qing Lei were all on the platform inspecting each other. There could only be a single victor from the three of them!

“Begin.” Great Paragon Imperial Wind announced. The moment he finished speaking, the three Primal Chaos experts immediately crossed paths. They were not merciful at all, and were not worried about anything since three unparalleled existences were present here! Under the scrutiny of Emperor Summer, Ancestor Fan and Emperor Cang, there had never been any deaths happening within the competition between the three clans! After all, the gap was too vast, and Emperor Summer could undoubtedly save the losing party at the final moment.

“Hong~”

Cang Qing Lei transformed into a giant. His skin was deep green in color. Thunder could be seen swimming away from the surface of his body. He held onto two great hammers and were incredibly overbearing.

As for ‘King Sauron’ who was already tyrannical, he currently emanated ripples and started entering close combat. King Sauron cultivated in two Dao paths and was extremely strong. After all, that time when he battled ‘Fan Yi Qian’, the other party was forced to utilize his forbidden technique. Adding up the fact that the space was too small and King Sauron could not dodge, that was why he lost. Currently, this battle platform might not seem huge, but in reality, it was a thousand times bigger than that of the tiny courtyard. There was sufficient space for him to dodge.

“It seems this fellow from the Icy Plains Tribe is quite good.”

“Dao of Ripple, Dao of Slaughter? He cultivated in both Dao paths? They seem to support each other? Xia Wu Hua seems to have met some trouble this time!”

“It is hard to determine the outcome.”

Xia Wu Hua merely had a single sword.

He placed everything on his sword. He was loyal to it.

After a short moment of frenzied battle.

Cang Qing Lei was clearly weaker by a level among the three of them. But his body was quite strong. Besides, King Sauron was relying on him to attack Xia Wu Hua! Hence, he was forced out of the battle platform after a long period by Xia Wu Hua.

And that was when the battle between King Sauron and Xia Wu Hua became more brutal.

“Hua hua hua.”

Dazzling sword lights were like a celestial river. They poured down on the body of King Sauron.

Many injuries were also strangely appearing on the body of Xia Wu Hua.

“Hu.”

Finally, Emperor Summer acted and teleported King Sauron out of the platform. After all, King Sauron consumed too much life force of his body, leaving just 10% remaining while Xia Wu Hua still had more than 50% his original life force!

‘I lost again.’ King Sauron returned to his position deep in thoughts.

That time when he was chosen by Fan Clan, he felt relatively proud in his heart.

After all, he was chosen amongst many Primal Chaos experts across many nations. King Sauron had a feeling that the Fan Clan was asking for his help, making him feel that he was more amazing than core disciples from the Fan Clan. But it was during the competition between the three clans that he experienced how lacking he was compared to the top three. He lost yet again in the second round.

“The Summer Clan has won the first group. Let’s not be overly anxious. The second group of battle is about to begin, and we’ll have to rely on you, San Yuan.” Monarch Andromeda looked towards Fan San Yuan.

Fan San Yuan nodded and stood.

…

In this group of battle.

They consisted of Fan San Yuan, Xia Cheng Yuan, and Cang Zhe Yong.

“What?”

The battle happened in a way that startled many guests. Xue Ying felt shocked too.

Even though he knew soul and willpower did not represent a strong combat ability! That Cang Clan’s ‘Cang Zhe Yong’ was the most dazzling cultivator before General Xuan revealed his splendor. This time, he was quite formidable during the battle too. Nevertheless, when faced against the Fan San Yuan with the ‘Un-Phase Mystical Technique’, he was disadvantaged. However, who would have thought that it was ‘Xia Cheng Yuan’ from the Summer Clan, a jovial young man to reveal such frightening strength.

He began singing.

“Weng, Hua, Fu…”

Many characters were shouted out from his mouth. This unseen ripple engulfed and restricted both Cang Zhe Yong and Fan San Yuan at the same time.

In the end, Cang Zhe Yong and Fan San Yuan were both restricted by many layers of force. They could not resist and were sent out of the platform.

“The <Great Dao Song> created by Emperor Summer? He, he actually grasped it?”

“He succeeded in training in the <Great Dao Song>?”

Too horrifying.

Xia Wu Hua and Xia Fa Yang were both termed as absolute geniuses of this era in Summer Clan. And Xia Cheng Yuan was a low-profile young fellow. Even though he was a core disciple, he still lacked in ways compared to those two.

But the <Great Dao Song> was just like the <Five Phases Sealing Technique>, a horrifying cultivation technique that was extremely hard to train in. But the moment one grasped it, he would be abnormally strong! Clearly, this Xia Cheng Yuan was extremely low-profile and had only revealed his strength during this competition between the three clans.

“The five experts from the Summer Clan. It seems Xia Cheng Yuan is quite close in strength to Xia Fa Yang.” Everyone praised.

A single cultivation technique that allowed him to sweep across those at the same level.

Just like the Five Phases Sealing Technique, the moment it appeared, it would suppress others. Even core disciples from the Fan Clan felt apprehensive in front of it. Only Fan Yi Qian was confident in fighting against it.

It was the same as the <Great Dao Song>. One would be defeated if he could not resist it!

‘The legendary <Great Dao Song>?’ Xue Ying felt astonished inwardly, ‘If I merely grasped the Five Phases Sealing Technique, chances are I would not fare well in this competition between the three clans.’

If Xue Ying relied purely on the Five Phases Sealing Technique and opened his mouth wide like a lion, demanding for higher rewards, the Fan Clan would likely switch him with another one.

But he grasped a tenth level technique in the Mirage and Illusory Realm. That accompanied with Five Phases Sealing Technique! Xue Ying could win any single person present here! After all, even this ‘Xia Cheng Yuan’ wasn’t ranked in the top three within the first round of battle. He might not be able to resist against Xue Ying when he utilized the ‘Devil Heart Bell’. Even if he could, the other party could barely maintain his consciousness. The moment Xue Ying displayed his frightening strength, the other party would lose undoubtedly.

“Things are really getting bad.”

“Is the Summer Clan about to win again?”

“Xia Wu Hua and Xia Cheng Yuan. There are only five groups in the second round. The first two groups are won by the Summer Clan already? The Summer Clan has also gained the advantage in the first round… unless my Fan Clan is about to lose this competition between the three clans again?”

The higher-ups of the Fan Clan were starting to panic.

The gap in strength with the Summer Clan was honestly too significant! It was okay if there were two absolute geniuses. This low-profile Xia Cheng Yuan popped out yet again!

“The third group.” Great Paragon Imperial Wind chuckled. He was feeling good, “Xia Fa Yang, Ying Shan Xue Ying and Cang Ying.”

“Xia Fa Yang!”

“That is the strongest fellow in the Summer Clan for this era, right? Previously, he got first during the first round of soul and willpower competition. According to rumors, he has cultivated the Dao of Heart to the pinnacle of Primal Chaos Realm, and also specialized in the Dao of Array. It seems the Summer Clan is going to win this round yet again. They are dominating this competition, and with so many outstanding experts, the Summer Clan will have a huge advantage in the third round too.”

“It seems hope of the other two clans winning this competition between the three clans has been extinguished.”

“That’s right. The superiority is overwhelming.”
