Chapter 622: The Competition Begins 1

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation  Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The Family Competition began swiftly. Although many families participated, the primary focus was on the competition among the ten great families.

In the Hidden World, the top tier consisted of the ten major families, followed by other prominent families and some smaller ones. However, even in the Hidden World, these major families couldn’t act recklessly because the Enforcement Team maintained the rules of the Hidden World.

Ye Lengan sat in her seat, appearing bored as she observed the battles on stage. To her, these contests seemed akin to children fighting. The participants were bound by an age limit, and all were required to be under a hundred years old to partake in the competition.

In the Hidden World, cultivators under a hundred were mostly in the Qi Condensation Stage, with few reaching the Foundation Establishment Stage and even fewer the Fasting Stage. From Ye Leng’an’s perspective, the competitions were undeniably dull.

Noticing Ye Leng’an’s mood, Huangfu Ruiling leaned over and asked in a low voice, “Are you bored?”

“Yes!” Ye Lengan yawned and continued, “These people have such weak cultivation levels. Is this how the Family Competition always is? No wonder you never attend.”

For someone with profound cultivation, these matches were indeed dull.

“This is normal.” After hearing Ye Leng’an’s words, Huangfu Ruiling couldn’t help but chuckle. “Moreover, it’s still the first round of the knockout stage, so it seems boring. Tomorrow’s competition will be better than today’s.”

“Why didn’t you mention that earlier?” Ye Lengan expressed her dissatisfaction. “If I had known, I would have come back tomorrow.”

Now that she was already here, and everyone was watching the competition, she didn’t want to leave early, feeling a bit awkward about it.

Huangfu Ruiling chuckled. “We met Ye Hongxuan and his wife today, didn’t we? If you really don’t want to watch, we can leave early! No one will object.”

“Forget it.” Ye Lengan shook her head. “Since we’re already here, let’s stay until it’s over. Besides, we have a few acquaintances to watch!”

Just as they were talking, on the central competition stage, prominently standing was Huangfu Ruixiang. Opposite him, his opponent for this match, and also an acquaintance, was none other than Nangong Xuyao.

Watching Nangong Xuyao, Huangfu Ruixiangs heart was far from relaxed. Although they were both outer sect disciples, he was well aware that his cultivation couldn’t match Nangong Xuyao’s. It could be said that in this match, he had no chance of winning.

He had never imagined encountering such a formidable opponent in the first round. His mind was in turmoil because he knew he couldn’t emerge victorious. However, being eliminated in the first round would be a great embarrassment. Moreover, the family members only cared about the outcome; they paid no attention to excuses.

If his performance was unsatisfactory, he might have to leave the main family after the Family Competition and return to the mortal world.

Ye Leng’an’s bored expression changed upon seeing the two on stage. She turned to Huangfu Ruiling and playfully asked, “Who do you think will win?” Although the outcome was evident, she wanted to tease Huangfu Ruiling.

“Nangong Xuyao,” Huangfu Ruiling stated confidently.

“You have high expectations for Nangong Xuyao!” Ye Lengan raised an eyebrow. “I always thought you didn’t like him. Turns out, you have so much confidence in him!”

Hearing this, Huangfu Ruiling laughed. “It’s not about favoring Nangong

Xuyao. I’m merely stating a fact. Huangfu Ruixiang can’t compare to Nangong

Xuyao, be it in cultivation or talent.”

“Huangfu Ruixiang is truly unlucky, encountering Nangong Xuyao in the first round,” Ye Lengan snickered. “Do you think someone has a grudge against him and arranged this?”

“It was all arranged on the spot,” Huangfu Ruiling said calmly. “He’s just unlucky. There’s no one to blame..”
