"Shockingly yes" Ling Jun answered Hutton with a wry smile on his face. When Hutton heard him, he felt his view of the world turning upside down as he thought.

’Seems like I am still a frog in the well even with all the experiences I have in my past life’

"Good evening everyone and I whole heartedly welcome you all to the 30th clash of dojo’s grand banquet" the middle aged man who transformed the room Hutton and the people from the Feng family earlier said loudly with a light smile on his face as he walked towards the center of the hall to attract everyone’s attention.

"How many families do you think are in this hall?" Hutton suddenly asked Ling Jun with a curious look on his face while he observed the people in various colors of Changsang clothings in the hall.

"Well if we want to add our family that is in here, then I would say there are currently 10 families in this hall" Ling Jun answered with a pondering look on his face.

"10 families?" Hutton immediately asked with an astounded look on his face. Up till now, he still couldn’t understand how the space prism which the law enforcement group of the event could bring 10 families from various locations across the province together.

"Now that all the families that is participating this event at this province is here, let’s get on to why the banquet is being held along with the history of this event" the middle aged man said with a mysterious smile on his face.

When everyone in the hall heard him, an uproar suddenly erupted amongst them which obviously made Hutton confused and curious.

"Ling Jun, do you know what is going on?" Hutton eventually asked with the same curious look on his face. But Ling Jun shook his head as he answered.

"Sorry but I have no clue about this"

"Grand elder, do you know what he is talking about" Just then, Ling Jian who has been quiet suddenly asked with curious eyes as he stared at Ling Huang Chou. After staying silent for a while, Ling Huang Chou finally answered with a deep and solemn tone.

"Although I am not sure myself, but I think what he is talking about has to do with the connectivity between this event and the ancient pagoda"

"Huh? But I thought this event is a national wide competition?" Ling Jian quickly asked with a confused look on his face. But Ling Huang Chou didn’t give him an answer immediately as he fell deep in thought again.

’Why am I suddenly having a bad feeling about this?’ Hutton thought with creased brows as he suddenly looked towards where the Feng family are.

And as soon as he did that, his eyes met Feng Po’s own as the later was staring at him with a menacing look on his face.

’Don’t tell me there is a deeper meaning to why this event is being held?’ Hutton thought with a vigilant look on his face.

"Settle down everyone" The middle aged man suddenly said loudly which began to make the people in the hall calm down. Right after that, the middle aged man continued with a strange smile now on his face.

"First of all, I would like to introduce myself. My name is Bu Ling and am the head of this event’s law enforcement group".

"Secondly, I am guessing you all are very confused on how the new faces around you appeared so suddenly. So I will be listing out all the families that are in this banquet right now" The middle aged man that is actually Bu Ling said as he looked at all the faces that is around him before he started speaking yet again.

"In this banquet, there are 10 families in it are name of these families are the Huang family, the Feng family, the Ling family, the Long family, the Cao family, the Hong family, the Chou family, the Yan family, the Xiao family and the Shen family"

’The family that has a business relationship with the Ling family is also here huh?’ Hutton thought as his gaze shifted to a particular young man that is standing amongst the group that supposedly belongs to the Huang family.

Why he could identify that group to be the Huang family is because of the person his eyes are on that is standing in the group. This person apparently is the person he met with Elder Jiao when he first arrived to the Ling family residence.

This person is Huang Wang who not only is the son of the head of the Ling family, but is also a mysterious Martial artist who gave Hutton back then the feeling of death when he sensed his aura.

’But why do I feel like there is something different about him?’ Hutton thought with a deep look on his face as he stared at Huang Wang.

Right now, Huang Wang possesses long, flowing black hair that cascades down his back, framing a face marked by determined eyes, their intensity hinting at the depth of his resolve. Around him, there’s a palpable yet silent aura, an energy that speaks of his dedication to his craft and his journey as a cultivator. He carries himself with a sense of purpose, each movement deliberate and measured, reflecting his commitment to mastery and self-discipline.

’He is at the fifth phase of the foundation establishment stage!!?’ Hutton thought with a shocked look on his face. But just then, he saw Huang Wang turning towards his direction with creased brows.

But when his eyes landed on Hutton, he momentarily became stunned before he suddenly smiled as he waved at him. Not knowing how to respond back, Hutton waved back at him.

"Do you know Huang Wang?" Ling Jun suddenly asked with a surprised tone in his voice.

"Not really, I bumped into him along with Elder Jiao when he was directing me to where I will be staying" Hutton answered with a honest tone.

Right before Ling Jun could speak up, Bu Ling suddenly said which drew the attention of everyone in the hall back to him.

"Now that everyone knows who are in this hall with them, let’s move on to the main reason why this banquet is being held"

"As most of you all might have already known about this, but the clash of dojos event happens once in every 10 years and it came to existence almost 400 years ago"

"As for why this event is being held in this way, it’s quite simple really but was kept a secret to even it’s participants for a reason" Bu Ling explained as his strange smile grew wider.

"And what might this secret be great one?" An elderly man who stands in front of the group that belongs to the Xiao family asked with a respectful tone.

This elderly man stands with a quiet dignity, his presence unassuming yet commanding respect. His weathered face tells the story of a lifetime filled with experiences, etched with lines that speak of wisdom and perseverance. Despite his age, there’s an absence of any discernible aura around him, as if he exists purely in the realm of the present moment, without any traces of supernatural energy or external influence. Instead, his strength lies in his quiet confidence and the depth of his character, which radiates from within, untouched by the external world.

After staying silent for some moments while staring at this elderly man, Bu Ling finally answered with the strange smile still on his face.

"This secret is the inheritance of the 34 Imperial pagodas"

"What!!?" Ling Huang Chou suddenly exclaimed with a look of disbelief on his face. Not only him, but the other elderly men in the hall did the same with a look of disbelief on their faces

"Ling Jun, do you know what is going on here?" Hutton immediately asked Ling Jun when he saw this scene.

"I have no idea" Ling Jun answered while he shaked his head. Even Ling Jian couldn’t get an answer from Ling Huang Chou who is just staring at Bu Ling with a look of disbelief on his face.

"Now that you all know why the clash of dojo’s event is being held every 10 years, it’s time to find out the reason why this banquet is being held" Bu Ling said with the same strange smile on his face.

"It seems like you have a bumpy road ahead of you" Suddenly, Hutton heard a voice in his mind which stunned him momentarily.

’Wait, isn’t that Emperor Chen’s voice, what does he mean by I have a bumpy road ahead of me’ Hutton thought with a confused look on his face. But before he could understand what is going on, But Ling figure suddenly blurred, dissipating into thin air, leaving behind a bewildered audience.

Hutton, a young cultivator, watched in astonishment as Bu Ling vanished before his eyes. Before he could comprehend what had just occurred, a strange sensation enveloped him, and he turned to find Bu Ling standing before him, a mysterious smile playing on his lips.

"Hutton," Bu Ling spoke, his voice carrying an otherworldly resonance, "sometimes the path of cultivation holds unexpected surprises."

Hutton’s heart raced with a mixture of awe and curiosity, unsure of what to make of the sudden appearance of the enigmatic Bu Ling. As he struggled to find his words, Bu Ling’s smile widened, hinting at the unfathomable depths of wisdom hidden behind his tranquil demeanor.

But Hutton’s expression quickly became grave when he heard what Bu Ling said out loud next.

"And it seems like this ancient pagoda have already gotten it’s inheritor"
