Chapter 37: The Great Competition of the Zhu Family!

  Zhu Yanzi's son Zhu Ting cultivated the "Tianmo Lian Ti Jue", and Dongfu had enough reason to believe it.

  Although Zhu Yanzi has faded out of the family's core circle in recent years, he is said to have been hanging out in the Demon Realm all along.

  "The Heavenly Demon Cultivation Technique" requires extremely harsh conditions to cultivate, and for ordinary people, it may be impossible to find the Devil's Blazing Fire, but for Zhu Yanzi, this shouldn't be a problem.

  If so, Zhu Ting will be Zhu Que's greatest opponent.

  "Grandfather, rest assured. Even if Zhu Gui cultivates the 'Tianmo Cultivation Method', I will still defeat him! What I am currently cultivating is the supreme sword technique of the Sword Path - 'Yi Zi Hui Jian' (One Word Wisdom Sword). How can I be afraid of his Tianmo Cultivation?"

  Zhu Guilan said with a loud and clear voice, his words were like throwing objects on the ground, full of confidence.

  In fact, he didn't have as much confidence in his heart as he showed on the surface.

  He had often heard his father sigh that among the various branches of the main family, everything was trivial except for the Zhu Yanzi branch, which was a real heart-wrenching disaster.

  Zhu Yanzi was a genius of unparalleled talent. In his heyday, with his Soul-destroying Sword in hand, he had no equal in the South Sea Immortal Realm.

  Zhu Gui was just coming of age when Zhu Yuanzhang's power and influence were at their peak, with his military campaigns victorious in all directions.

  At that time, the children of the Zhu family most admired Zhu Yanzi. Under his powerful pressure, their father Zhu Hengzi and second uncle Zhu Zhenzi did not have the opportunity to lift their heads.

  Now, Zhu Yanzi's son, Zhu Ting, has actually cultivated the "Tianmo Lian Ti Jue", and is also a green robe disciple of Donghai College. This is indeed a very worthy opponent to pay attention to.

  "We must win!" Zhu Gui said to himself.

  "When necessary, get rid of him once and for all!" A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Zhu Gui's heart, and an endless shadow floated onto his handsome face.

  ……

  The East Wing of the Divine Return Island.

  Zhu Yu was leaning on Er Lang's leg, enjoying the rare relaxing time after cultivation.

  Zhu Ting was stout and had big ears, wearing a green robe, with her hair tied up high, giving off an air of elegance that was almost otherworldly.

  "Brother, you really won't participate in the family competition?"

  The vermillion fish snorted and slightly curled up the corner of its mouth: "What kind of crap is this family competition! If I were to go to the family competition, would you even have a chance at winning?"

  "Haha!" Zhu Teng chuckled foolishly, scratching his head, and the entire immortal family's demeanor was instantly ruined.

  He immediately said, "Brother, I have only cultivated my body to the fifth level and still can't beat Zhu Kui. My mother said today that Zhu Kui made a big show in the South Sea Temple and was actually taken notice of by the wise swordswoman Jiang Xianzi and brought into her sect. Do you know about this?"

  Zhu Yu furrowed her brow, and it turned out he really didn't know about this matter.

  However, he was not unfamiliar with the affairs of Shen Jian Tang. It is said that the "One Word Wisdom Sword" Jiang Xianzi of Shen Jian Tang liked to accept disciples the most. All the elite disciples in Shen Jian Tang were her disciples.

  However, these disciples would never have been able to receive Jiang Xianzi's true guidance in their daily lives.

  Jiang Xianzi's true disciples are all exceptionally talented individuals, such as Gao Rou, who can be considered a truly authentic direct disciple.

  The elite disciples of Nanhai Temple are at most considered honorary disciples of Jiang Xianzi.

  Zhu Yu was just about to speak when he saw a small head peeking in from the doorway.

  He wanted to say something but stopped himself, waving his hand and saying: "You little brat go prepare for your big test, don't bother me! Zhuling is waiting outside and getting impatient!"

  Zhu Teng smiled foolishly and bowed to Zhu Yu, saying: "Brother... I'll leave first! If I win the championship again and get the 'Ten Thousand Kills Flying Crossbow', I... I'll give you one!"

  "Go, go! It's not even a done deal yet, let's defeat Zhu Kui first!" Zhuyu waved his hand impatiently, and Zhubi trotted out of the door.

  "Family showdown? What a load of crap! What does it have to do with me? But returning to Wan Gu Xian Island, heh heh..."

  ……

  Ten thousand return to the Immortal Island, lanterns and streamers are intertwined.

  On the vast Wanjie Square, the high platform for the martial arts competition has been set up.

  The third generation of disciples is having a big competition. This time, the Zhu family attaches great importance to it. All the young masters from the five mansions of the Zhu family are participating in the competition, not a single one is missing.

  The Wàn Guī Square, which can hold thousands of people, was packed with a sea of people.

  All the people of Zhu's family have gathered here today, including relatives and female family members, even slaves with cultivation in their bodies. No one wants to miss such a grand occasion.

  The three generations of disciples in the family all sat behind the high platform.

  In front of them were all the supernatural beings born into the Zhu family, as well as other four major families' special guests who came to attend the ceremony.

  The competition hasn't started yet, but the square is already filled with a cacophony of voices.

  Especially the third generation of children who are about to participate in the competition, are all eager to try and extremely excited.

  "Zhu Kui, that's Zhu Kui's elder brother, it's said that he has already been accepted as a disciple by the wise and powerful Xianzi Jiang, tsk tsk, today's big competition first place will definitely go to him!"

  "Who's standing next to Zhu Gui? That's the law robe of a Nanhai Academy elite disciple..."

  "I know who it is... It's Yun Feng, the senior sister of the Cloud family..."

  "Wow, Yunfeng Shijie is here too? So beautiful and highly cultivated, I really want to get closer and take a good look. If I could say one word to her, that would be even..."

  "Cut it out, Zhu Hou'er! You toad thinks you can eat swan meat? Didn't you see that Yunfeng Shizhi was accompanied by Zhu Guiren all the way? Take a good look at yourself, what are you?"

  ……

  The young masters of the Zhu family were chattering away, and many people noticed that in the VIP area where the innate spiritual essence was gathered, a stunningly beautiful purple-robed girl was sitting upright. The girl's appearance was breathtakingly beautiful, so beautiful that it took one's breath away. The young men who were in their youthful prime couldn't help but be green-eyed with envy.

  This girl is Yun Feng, the genius girl of the Yun family, one of the four major families!

  Zhu Guai is wearing a formal red robe of Nanhai Temple today, looking extremely handsome and elegant.

  Before, when facing the Zunyi Temple's purple-robed elite disciples from the South Sea Institute, he was somewhat inferior.

  But now, he no longer has that mindset because he showed amazing talent in the Devil's Domain trial and successfully reached the peak of the Seventh Heaven. Further ahead is the Eighth Heaven Realm.

  It was almost without a doubt that he would become an elite disciple of the South Sea Institute, and what's more, he had been listed as a named disciple by Jiang Xianzi, which was a special honor that only every elite disciple of the Divine Sword Hall could have.

  The elite disciple of Nanhai Temple, this identity alone is enough to make his name spread throughout the young monks of Nanhai.

  It is generally believed that the Red Robe Disciples of the Southern Sea are disciples below the Seventh Heaven, while the elite disciples are those above the Seventh Heaven.

  In fact, this division is just an external recognition.

  The true elite of the South Sea Institute are the 108 Zǐpáo disciples. Becoming a postnatal seventh-level cultivator does not necessarily mean one can become an elite disciple.

  Every elite disciple is a genius, to become an elite disciple, you must pass the assessment of the Elite Hall of the Academy. For every additional elite disciple, there will naturally be corresponding elimination of other elite disciples.

  It is precisely because of such competition that the gold content of Nanhai Institute's elite disciples is extremely high.

  So, among the elite disciples, those who truly became famous were not necessarily those who had a half-step innate existence, but rather those who had just reached the seventh or eighth level of acquired cultivation.

  Among the Red Robe Disciples, there were countless postnatal cultivators of seven or eight levels, but many such cultivators didn't even have the courage to challenge the Elite Hall.

  Zhu Guai will soon become an elite disciple, he can imagine the sensation he will cause next year at Nanhai Academy.

  Yunfeng's expression was very cold, like an iceberg, making it difficult for people to get close to him.

  Zhu Que stood by, flattering her with all his might, yet he had never received a direct glance from the beauty.

  But he didn't feel embarrassed at all. Yunfeng had always been his goal, and he had long been captivated by Yunfeng's unparalleled elegance.

  Day and night, he had always been fantasizing that one day he could have such a woman all to himself, and be her immortal companion, for only then would life be perfect.

  He used to just think about it, but now he dares to try.

  Yunfeng's coldness couldn't extinguish the flame in his heart, but instead stimulated his desire for conquest to grow stronger.

  "Yunfeng Shijie, you're really amazing! My master Jiang Xianzi has mentioned you before and encouraged us to ask for your guidance on talismans. She said that talismans are the foundation of cultivating immortality. In the future, if I have any doubts about this aspect, I hope you won't mind teaching me!"

  Yun Feng furrowed his brow and remained silent.

  This little red robe beside me has always felt good about himself, flattering and fawning is one thing, but he especially likes to mention Jiang Xianzi, as if every sentence must remind people that he is a disciple of Jiang Xianzi.

  "Yi Zi Hui Jian" Jiang Xianzi is good at accepting disciples, who in Nanhai Temple doesn't know?

  All of the elite disciples in the entire Shen Jian Tang are actually disciples under Jiang Hui, what's there to brag about?

  Yunfeng didn't have the mood to deal with this little red robe, today she was still in a good mood, having just grasped the "Ten Character Classic" a few days ago, which greatly advanced her talismanic cultivation.

  Normally, if someone like Zhu Gui who can't tell his own position and has a good self-feeling appears in front of her, she wouldn't care whether this is Zhu's home court today or not, and would directly blow him away.

  Originally, Yunfeng had no interest in such so-called grand comparison guests at all.

  This time she came over just to verify one thing.

  Her gaze had been wandering among the three generations of Zhu's disciples all along. She looked back and forth for three times, but did not find that guy in them.

  "Isn't that guy really not a member of the Zhu family?"

  Yun Feng's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and in his mind, a black-robed youth's figure naturally emerged.

  That out-of-tune, boastful, and cunning face is so detestable, yet so vivid.

  Bamboo fish!

  For some reason, when Yunfeng realized the killing intent of the "Ten Character Classic", the first person she thought of was not her master, but Zhu Yu.

  She had an idea that even she thought was absurd, wondering if the Vermilion Bird had also grasped the things in the Ten Character Scripture. Because she knew that the Vermilion Bird had also obtained the Ten Character Scripture passed down by her strict master uncle.

  This is absolutely an absurd idea.

  Because Zhu Yu was just a small black robe, he had always been mixed in the lower levels of the symbol, and had never even practiced the killing symbol.

  A black-robed young monk who has never practiced the killing Dao of the Assault Scripture can comprehend the "Ten Character Addendum"?

  But every time Yunfeng thought this way, her mind would think of that strange Grass Orchid Fantasy Symbol, and also the "Tong Luo Jade Symbol" that even Frost Autumn Moon was greatly discomfited by. Thinking of these two things, Zhu Yu seemed to become more and more mysterious, making it impossible for people to see through him.

  Everyone, the competition for the list is extremely fierce now. The recommendation votes for Xian Wang are very urgent! I just don't understand, there are many books on the list with fewer collections than mine, but why do they get more recommendations than me?

  It's been over four years since I've been struggling at the starting point, can't even get to Nan Hua. Are there really so few die-hard fans? Please help me out, brothers! I need your votes desperately in this critical moment!
