Regardless of the end result, with the victory achieved by the Misty Sword Sect, all powerhouses supported by the Xin Clan were completely defeated.
At this moment, Xin Tianwen was calmer than he was in the beginning. He closed his eyes and turned a deaf ear.
Usually, in such circumstances, the elite warriors sent out by the Xuan Yuan Clan would have more than a fifty percent chance of winning. The probability of winning would be between fifty to sixty percent.
This time, the Flowing Sound Valley had their share of bad luck. In fact, they were defeated in the situation of one bad move, so they could not participate in the next round.
This result directly benefited the Misty Sword Sect. They acquired the spot left vacant by the Sound of Thunder Sect!
In this case, the results of all exterior competitors were calculated.
Mindful people could see that for the five spots, besides the Great Second Gate winning against Mysterious Reform Gate, all powerhouses supported by the Qin Clan won in the end.
Ever since the Hundred Lane House showed support to the Qin Clan, as well as the Floating Snow House, Thousand Feather Sect, and Misty Sword Sect, they successfully acquired a spot.
This was definitely not a coincidence!
Xuan Yuan Ba could not refrain from shaking his head slightly when he saw this final result. This result was too unexpected.
In the past when the Qin Clan fought the Xin Clan, they could only defend themselves. Who ever thought that the counterattack from the Qin Clan would arrive with such turbulence?
Following the end of the exterior challengers, the first section had ended perfectly. This section could be said as brilliant and varied. All powerhouses who came to watch gasped with amazement. With the gains and losses in this competition, compared to their own powerhouses, they understood the disparity and also gained more motivation.
At this moment, naturally it was time to educate their young disciples. The stimulation from this large scene would be propelling for young people to train hard. It would motivate them to strive for the opportunity to participate in this pageant.
When the challenge ended, the Hundred Lane Clan and Thousand Feather Sect no longer avoided anything. Since everyone knew they were followers of the Qin Clan, there was no need to disguise it anymore.
They also engaged with lively conversation with the Floating Snow House and Misty Sword Sect. They certainly formed a clique. The outsiders were also feeling somewhat astonished by these powerhouses.
Among the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates, they already occupied four spots. The Qin Clan would be challenging the Heavenly Emperor seat. If they succeed, the Qin Clan would completely seize the Heavenly Emperor Mountain.
Of course, the majority of neutral sects shared good feelings for the Qin Clan. They felt it would benefit the development of all sects in the Xuan Yuan Mound if the Qin Clan acquired the seat.
Inside the major tent of the Qin Clan, the three major chiefs and several minor chiefs were in the ranks.
The leaders of those four major sects were also present.
This time, they were able to succeed due to receiving help from the Qin Clan. Without their help, it could be said that none of them could have seized a spot among the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates on their own.
Naturally, the Floating Snow House and Misty Sword Sect did not possess the power to fight on par with the Heavenly Punishing Villa and Sound of Thunder Sect. Most likely, the Hundred Lane Clan and Thousand Feather Sect could not afford the challenge from the Vase Mound Mountain and Hundred Sword Sect either.
Therefore, this time they submitted cheerfully.
Especially Luo Baiyu, he felt even more fortunate. Initially when Bai Liguang urged him to pledge loyalty to the Qin Clan, he hesitated to some extent.
Now it seems his hesitation from that moment was stupid. If he had not followed the Qin Clan, the Thousand Feather Sect would have been disqualified and covered in dirt.
For this aspect, one could refer to the end result of the Mysterious Reform Gate. This sect did not listen to their advice and they got swept out of the party by the Great Second Gate.
The support of a powerful powerhouse was crucial.
And choosing the right master was even more crucial.
The same to those sects that were supported by the powerful powerhouse, they suffered total defeat since they chose the Xin Clan. This also moved Luo Baiyu even more.
“Everyone, previously I was ignorant of the divine skill of Head Chief Qin. Fortunately, I got back on the right path. Ha ha, Head Chief, I will not say anything else. In the future, the Thousand Feather Sect will surely take the Qin Clan as their only guide! We will obey all of your orders.”
“Ha ha, Baiyu, now you finally see the truth? Ha ha.” Bai Liguang was extremely proud. Being the recommender, he still felt rather proud.
Ding Qijian of the Misty Sword Sect also felt incredibly excited. Being a new powerhouse, he spoke with more carefulness. However, at this moment he also mustered his courage and said, “Friends, this competition fully proved that the Xin Clan is just a paper tiger. The Qin Clan is the most qualified and the most reputable candidate for the Heavenly Emperor seat. I suggest all four of us should unite. We must have an iron will and not be frightened by the attractions and threats from the outside world. As long as we form a close alliance, regardless of those threats or attractions, we will not let them bring us down.”
Qin Wushuang loved to hear these words of loyalty.
Bai Liguang was a quick-witted person as he immediately agreed, “Qijian is right, the most crucial thing is for us to remain determined. Shamefully, due to the tyrannical abuse of the Xin Clan, we once made stupid decisions. However, I promise in the future, under the integral and talented leadership of the Qin Clan, I will stand with my word and not allow those evil beings to penetrate our forces.”
These were not formal words of boasting. Now, he was Qin Wushuang’s puppet for he was powerless to resist the Qin Clan. Also, being the puppet of the Qin Clan, he would get many benefits and have a savory life. It would be stupid to betray the clan.
Luo Baiyu would not let him be outdone. “Yes, yes, Brother Guang said what I also had on my mind.”
When those chiefs of the Qin Clan saw these insufferably arrogant giants acting obedient before Qin Wushuang, despite feeling somewhat hostile, they felt rather proud.
After all, for a major head shot like Luo Baiyu and Bai Liguang, they became successful earlier on than Second Chief Qin Yunran. They were also much stronger, yet they were as obedient as a child before Head Chief Qin Wushuang. Such a sense of accomplishment indeed made them feel incredibly proud.
The Qin Clan has truly sprung up!
On the contrary, Mu Rong Qianji was extremely calm. He was weaker than Luo Baiyu and Bai Liguang and even slightly weaker than Ding Qijian of the Misty Sword Sect. Yet he possessed a much higher status than those three.
Just the identity of being the father-in-law to the Head Chief of the Qin Clan was sufficient to give Mu Rong Qianji an endlessly higher position. Not to mention, Mu Rong Qianji was weaker because he was young. He had only been in the Supreme Dao Stage for a short while, yet with his foundation and also the care from his future son-in-law, it would not be long before his accomplishments surpassed Bai Liguang and the others.
“Junior Brother Mu Rong, you should also say something!” Bai Liguang said with a somewhat flattering tone.
Mu Rong Qianji revealed a light smile. “You are all reputable Supreme Dao elite warriors. Compared to all of you, I am a younger superficial student. You are all very thoughtful with what you’ve said, there is nothing for me to add. The Qin Clan has a big breadth of mind, ambitious goals to strengthen the ambiance of the Heavenly Emperor Mountain. As assistants, we just need to carry out our roles and do what we are supposed to do. This will best repay the Qin Clan. What do you think?”
“Yes yes, your words hit the spot.” Bai Liguang chuckled.
Now Qin Wushuang started to speak, “Chiefs, we are all of the same place. I will not speak any more formalities. After going through a calamity, there are many things waiting to be done at the Heavenly Emperor Mountain. Perhaps the outside world harbors many doubts of whether the Qin Clan is capable of winning the Heavenly Emperor seat or not. Yet your performance already caused them to increase their interest in the Qin Clan. In the past, no one thought highly of our clan. But now, ha ha, I think the clan should have some attention more or less!”
Feeling indignant at injustice, Bai Liguang said, “Those people are short-sighted, humph! All four of us are supported by the Qin Clan and we won. Is this not enough proof?”
“Yes, this is the irresistible trend. They must be stupid if they don’t understand,” Luo Baiyu agreed.
Qin Wushuang said with a slight smile, “The exterior competition is a different matter than the Heavenly Emperor seat competition. Everyone, before the competition, I promised that if you succeed, you will get a Sixth Calamity Transformation Supreme Dao weapon as a reward. Now, I will not break my promise and honor this commitment.”
When the four Sixth Calamity Transformation Supreme Dao weapons were placed before the crowd, instantly their eyes shone.
When they got their own, they fondled them admiringly and were unable to contain their joy. This was not their fault. After all, these sects were not some immemorial sects. They did not possess a rich foundation like the three major sects. A weapon at the Second Calamity of the Transformation Supreme Dao level was the best treasure they could take out until now.
Currently, with a Sixth Calamity Transformation Supreme Dao weapon in hand, how could they not find it fantasy-like?
“Previously, for the equipment I lent to you, each of you had a Transformation Supreme Dao weapon. I can lend it to you for one thousand years. Judging on your future performance, I will use discretion whether to continue the loan or not. One word, if you perform exceptionally well, this Ninth Calamity Transformation Supreme Dao weapon can be loaned to you without a deadline.”
Qin Wushuang did not keep talking when he said this point. They were all smart people.
“Yes yes, Head Chief, we will work hard.”
“Yes, whatever you say in the future, we will do it!”
Qin Wushuang waved his hand. “This is all for today.”
After everyone went away, Mu Rong Qianji also began to walk outside. Qin Wushuang said with a smile, “Please hold on for a moment, Lord Mu Rong.”
“Father, Brother Wushuang still needs to talk to you.”
After everyone went away, Qin Wushuang said, “Lord Mu Rong, in the previous situation, it would not have been appropriate to promise extra things to the Floating Snow House. I don’t plan to give you a Ninth Calamity Transformation Supreme Dao weapon. I have prepared a Sixth Calamity Genuine Supreme Dao weapon for you. However, now is not the time to announce this to the outside world.”
Mu Rong Qianji was astonished, a Sixth Calamity Genuine Supreme Dao weapon!
Mu Rong Xu was rather calm as she said with a smile, “Daddy, brother Wushuang already thought about it. He is afraid that a Sixth Calamity Genuine Supreme Dao will bring disaster to the Floating Snow House. So he doesn’t plan to announce it.”
Naturally, Mu Rong Qianji understood as he kept nodding.
He knew that due to his special identity, he would certainly receive extra care. Unexpectedly, he received such a rich gift!
