Chapter 178: Entering the Qingyun League
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The arena was massive and completely made up of rare stones. These stones had the effect of immunity to energy. While it was not completely immune, even normal Energy Shaping First Realm fighters would not able to damage the stones.
This huge arena had enough capacity to hold multiples tens of thousands of people. In the center of the arena was a huge Transportation Magical Formation with fighters constantly going in and out of the formation.
This Transportation Magical Formation was the one connected to the Unbreakable Mountain.
All the trainee league members entered the Qingyun League, stunned by the majestic infrastructure before their eyes. This was the caliber of the Qingyun League. The huge palace before them was extremely tall – one could describe it as cloud-piercing – and there was no way to tell where it ended.
It was then that they realized: compared to the Qingyun League, their own family clans were nothing.
Following Yun Shan and the other Outer League members, the trainee members entered the league, forming a straight line.
Yao Yue was also stood in the center of the arena, waiting for their arrival.
Following that, Li Suifeng, Ling Xue, and Tong Qian also successfully entered the Qingyun League.
“Congratulations to the three of you for passing the test and officially becoming Outer League members of the Qingyun League. From this point onwards, every action you take and every word you speak will be representative of the league, so do train hard.” Yao Yue’s solemn voice carried no emotion, giving off a feeling that one better dare not get too close to her.
“Sister Yao Yue, please, quickly save Ye Mo – he has been targeted by the Long Armed Ape Monkey King!” The moment Li Suifeng entered the league, he informed Yao Yue, with his hands held together.
“Long Armed Ape Monkey King?”
A hint of surprise flashed across Yao Yue’s ice cold eyes. “Official members have no right to participate in the Unbreakable Mountain test. It is this bad luck that he bumped into the Long Armed Ape Monkey.”
“Hehe, who would’ve thought that those three would manage to escape and still get into the Qingyun League? However, these three do not pose any threat to me – my special privileges due to my position are enough to toy with them to their deaths. For Ye Mo, there is no doubt he will die. He has the blood of the monkey underlings on him – the Monkey King will not relent until he is dead,” Yun Shan mocked in secrecy.
“Sister Yao Yue, the reason why Ye Mo is being hunted by the Long Armed Monkey King is because he was sabotaged by Ye Shun. He secretly spilled the blood of the Long Armed Ape Monkey offspring on Ye Mo’s body, resulting in the King wanting to kill him,” Li Suifeng continued to say.
Hearing that, the expression on Yun Shan’s face changed as he said, “Kid, what nonsense are you spouting? Why would I, Yun Shan, do something like that?”
“Indeed, why would Brother Yun Shun do something like that? He is an Energy Shaping Third Realm fighter, there is no reason why he would show such pettiness towards his juniors.”
“Sister Yao Yue, please still go and check on the situation! The four of us were initially together – Ye Mo lured the Long Armed Ape Monkey King away from us in order to protect us,” Ling Xue said as well, hands held together and heart filled with worry.
“Oh? I do have some impression of a man named Ye Mo. He is too conspicuous, but if he attracted the Monkey King away on his own to save his companions, his nature must not be that bad. There are not a lot of loyal men around like him around.
“I shall still check it out!”As she spoke, she submerged into the Magical Formation and vanished in a flash.
Seeing that Yao Yue had entered the Magical Formation, Li Suifeng finally let out a heave of relief, praying that Ye Mo would be able to persevere until the end.
Yun Shan and Yun Baitian glared at Li Suifeng and his companions with sinister, cold looks as if as a warning and a threat.
Following that, another few shadows walked out from the Magical Formation. The most surprising thing was that there were two Spirit Cultivating Eighth Realm fighters among them. These two fighters were, naturally, Zheng Sanmu and Yang Jiaosu.
“Are you kidding? How is it possible that there are Spirit Cultivating Eighth Realm fighters who passed the test – are these people blind?”
“Unless the two of them have extraordinary strength? Coupled with decent luck to not face any Energy Shaping Realm fighters, it is not impossible for them to successfully pass the test.”
“Don’t tell me, all their union passes were picked up from the ground.”
Among those present, only Sun Shanglong knew that the only reason why they were able to pass the test was due to Ye Mo’s help. Now that Ye Mo was dead and he had the support of Ye Changsheng, he would definitely be able to kill Zheng Sanmu.
“Besides those trainee members who have already failed the test, the Magical Formation detects there are two people currently headed towards the formation.”
Almost immediately, Ye Mo walked out of the formation, clutching his chest, his face pale white. Yao Yue followed him out.
Ye Mo intentionally pretended to be injured. Yun Shan was bound to feel strange if he was completely fine after being targeted by the Long Armed Ape Monkey King. Pretending to be hurt would cause Yun Shun to let his guard down, giving Ye Mo a better chance to attack and kill him.
Yao Yue met Ye Mo halfway through her journey. However, her cold personality meant that she did not say much.
Everyone assumed that Ye Mo had been saved by Sister Yao Yue.
“Who would have thought that Ye Mo would be so lucky? Seeing his broken spear on his back, it must have been a huge battle. If not for Sister Yao Yue’s intervention, there is no doubt that he would have died,” Yun Shan said coldly.
“Not to worry, you are not to be blamed. Since you did not manage to kill him in the league entry test, you can only scheme and kill him in the league. I give you three months’ time – I want to hear news of Ye Mo’s death,” said Ye Changsheng.
“No problem. Now that he is entering the Qingyun League, his position will be the lowest among the Outer League members. There are so many loopholes in the Qingyun League rules, I’m sure I can find a way to kill him easily,” Yun Shan smiled sinisterly.
Li Suifeng, Zheng Sanmu, and the rest of their companions heaved sighs of relief when they saw Ye Mo enter. Ye Mo had helped everyone of them and so they were filled with gratitude towards him and naturally did not want anything bad to happen to Ye Mo.
Hu Batian of the ancient family clan was fired up as well upon seeing Ye Mo, his blood boiling throughout his body. A man stood beside him saw what was happening and could not help but say, “Hu Batian, this is the man who defeated you? His strength seems average.”
“Brother, that guy is not as simple as you imagine. If not for my body being clad with Batian Command, I would definitely have been stabbed by him. Pay extra attention to him in the future,” Hu Batian said in a serious tone.
The man did not say much, his arms crossed in front of his chest, a look of arrogance and carefreeness on his face.
“300 trainees have entered the Qingyun League. Their overall stats are higher than previous batches’. Furthermore, there are three Spirit Cultivating Eighth Realm fighters!” As Yao Yue spoke, she cast her gaze upon those three – Zheng Sanmu, Yang Jiaosu, and Lei Ting.
The three Spirit Cultivating Eighth Realm fighters who stood on the Qingyun League arena was a cruel slap across Yun Shan’s face. Zheng Sanmu and Yang Sujiao relied on Ye Mo’s help to successfully enter the league, but Lei Ting entered the Qingyun League based on his own abilities.
“These three Spirit Cultivating Eighth Realm fighters shall be awarded 10 Mixed Energy Pills each.”
“Tsk tsk, 10 Mixed Energy Pills, the Qingyun League is indeed reckless with its riches. There is no way that my family clan would so easily giv out 10 Mixed Energy Pills. The ingredients for these pills are rare and its cultivating process is difficult. It would be impressive enough for a family clan to possess a hundred of these.”
“How lucky. Even I am rather jealous.”
“Those three Spirit Cultivating Eighth Realm fighters were ultimately able to enter the league. The element of luck aside, that still remains a difficult task.” With a wave of her arm, Yao Yue sent 10 Mixed Energy Pills flying into the hands of those three.
“According to the rules of the league entry test, the three members with the highest number of union passes and the three members who were the quickest to enter the Magical Formation are to be awarded 50, 30, and 10 Mixed Energy Pills respectively, according to ranking.”
