The Way of The Dao

Chapter 544 Young Geniuses Tournament

?* Bang! *

Rumbles and tremors spread around the arena as two figures flashed and fought each other!

"Come on, little Wu, you can do it!"

"Show him what defeat is, little Gi!"

"Despite their ages, they have already reached great strengths and heights in their cultivation!"

"They really will be great experts in the future!"

The crowd became excited, vociferating and exclaiming with great expressions, supporting the fighters in the arena as they were amazed by the great fight that unfolded.

The two young men fought fiercely in the arena, being watched by the crowd around them.

"Really boring."

However, a jeer was heard from one of the spaces in the stands where there were few people.

"It seems that this kind of battles can't get young master Ji's attention." Feng Rao said with a small helpless smile as he looked at Ji Zhen, who was the one who had spoken while looking disdainfully at the fighters.

The Feng family was on this side of the bleachers!

The young women were looking between Feng Xuan and Ji Zhen, their enamored gazes unable to pull them away!

Di Ji was standing beside Feng Xuan and Ji Zhen, with a nervous complexion as she carried a huge jug of wine and served without a break to both of them as they arrogantly raised their empty glasses.

"It really is boring, knowing that I will get first place is not something exciting." Feng Xuan spoke up at once as he sneered and said, "It's much better to keep playing with those hot jade dolls than to watch these shitty matches."

Feng Xuan and Ji Zhen had spent the entire previous day and all night playing with women!

The Feng family elders said nothing but nodded inwardly; the young master of the Feng family would unhesitatingly take the first place!

"Then why are you still staying?" Ji Zhen still asked with a disdainful expression.

"Because I want to win and prove to my woman that she can never beat me. That it's useless for her to resist." Feng Xuan smiled wickedly as he glared lustfully at Li Fengyuan from another side of the arena!

On the other side of the arena, there was another huge grandstand, where the Li family stood. Li Fengyuan kept a serious and somber expression throughout as she sat a bit away from even her own family members. She had a sword with her as she showed a cold expression as she felt the stares on her.

Similarly, the Simu, Long and Hua families, had their own stands and private spaces, looking down from high above the stage where the fighters resided. The audience and others watched from the ground, supporting and cheering the wrestlers.

"This generation is a good thing. We must nurture these youngsters well."

A voice was heard from one of the slightly higher bleachers.

A gentleman in his early 40s nodded as he watched the two boys compete fiercely on stage. He was sitting in the middle in a well-made chair, as if demonstrating his importance and prestige. A powerful yet confident aura emanated from him.

This is the current City Lord, Qin Changyue!

"Although both of them are barely at the Middle Stage of Chi Gathering, they are still amazing for their age." Another man nodded at the City Lord's comment.

* Bang! *

A powerful punch decided the victory as one of the fighters flew out of the ring.

"Excellent! The winner of the junior youth tournament is San Gi!"

The man at the City Lord's side nodded and announced with a big happy expression the winner left in the arena.

The young man of about 16 waved his arms excitedly as he climbed down from the arena. Although he was injured, that didn't stop him from celebrating with excitement as he rejoined his family.

"Now that the kids' tournament is concluded, we will next begin the tournament for the young geniuses of the great generation who will become great experts!"

The man at the City Lord's side announced shortly after, being the referee of the tournament.

Just over 10 young men with appearances in their early twenties gathered around the arena. Each carried their personal weapons with them, showing that the competition would be close and intense.

The actual tournament began, soon showing great battles and surprises to the audience. But when it was their turn to face off against members of the city's major families, the opponents gave up without a second thought.

Li Fengyuan and Feng Xuan easily passed without a fight when the opponent gave up before stepping into the arena!

The tournament progressed quickly, finally reaching the final stages where the strongest young men were left.

"The next battle will be between Long Zhu and Feng Xuan!" The referee announced soon after what would be a great battle.

Long Zhu, the eldest son of the great Long family, took the stage!

"Looks like you really have the confidence to face me."

At once, an arrogant and mocking voice was heard as Feng Xuan smoothly jumped onto the stage from where he stood. His gaze towards Long Zhu contained arrogance, mockery and disdain.

"It's young master Feng!"

"So handsome!"

"We'll finally see him fight! How powerful has he become?"

"I don't know, but there are rumors that he has made great strides while he was at the Profound Sky Academy."

"Will he be able to enter the Golden Core Stage in the future?"

"Probably. I wouldn't be surprised, after all, he is a genius."

"But he's up against young master Long who is also not weak at all. He would even have a chance of winning."

"This will be an exciting battle!"

Comments among the crowd were instantly heard as they looked at Feng Xuan who flew onto the stage with ease.

"You're not the only one who has increased his strength." Long Zhu responded in kind, not being intimidated by Feng Xuan's comment.

"You think that by defeating Hua Younting you will be able to defeat me?" Feng Xuan asked once he stood in front of Long Zhu on the stage, looking at him with disdain.

Hua Younting is the son of the great Hua family and a young man of the same generation as them, but he had lost in the previous battle against Long Zhu!

It was one of the few battles that surprised the audience and so on!

* Boom! *

A powerful aura exploded from Long Zhu, raising his power to the maximum.

"What hadn't he demonstrated his full power before?"

"This aura is amazing! Could he have reached the Golden Core Stage?"

"Young Master Long is very powerful!"

The crowd erupted in elation when they felt the sudden burst of energy from Long Zhu, wondering if this young man had hidden his cultivation before.

"He's at the peak of the Establishment realm was the Foundation, half a step away from advancing."

Then, a faint but somewhat exciting comment was heard. It was the voice of the City Lord.

"What? He's at the pinnacle of the realm?"

"Then he's just a short time away from entering the Golden Core realm!"

"With a little more time we'll have a great genius!"

"The first person from the City to enter the Golden Core!"

People shouted excitedly, looking with excitement and anticipation at Long Zhu, who would soon enter the next realm being so young.

"My son doesn't want to use special pills to create his core, so he wants to enter the next realm on his own. Otherwise, he would have long since entered."

An arrogant but exciting voice came from the Long family at once. The patriarch, Long Yin, father of Long Zhu, showed a proud and happy expression as he saw his son being adored by the public.

People were once again excited, realizing that Long Zhu wanted to break through without any outside help!

This is a true genius who would advance with only his own spirit!

However, there was still one person who did not flinch and even had a deliberately mocking and arrogant expression.

Feng Xuan was not suffocated by the aura Long Zhu directed towards him, his gaze towards Long Zhu was filled with disdain and derision, shaking his head, Feng Xuan said, "If this is all your strength, then you might as well give up. You don't stand a chance."

Then, an aura no less powerful than Long Zhu emanated from Feng Xuan's body, making him retreat several steps while silencing the entire place!
