4189 The greatest irony
Zeng Zhengping finally finished reading the list. With a ring of the bell, the aristocratic family’s adjudication election began.
Following the order on the list, the twenty or so disciples of the aristocratic families leaped onto the stage. The five people from the Ling family led by Ling Chuxi, the four people from the Yuwen family, and Shangguan Wuqing were among them.
Nearly 10,000 pairs of eyes below the stage looked at Ling Chuxi at the same time. Logically speaking, the children of these aristocratic families who had come to watch were not old. To be able to personally witness a battle between experts of similar age to themselves, they should be unusually excited. However, at this time, the atmosphere was unusually heavy and oppressive.
Not to mention the many years of enmity between the Ling family, the Yuwen family, and the Shangguan family, just based on the confrontation between Ling Chuxi and Yuwen Siyuan earlier, the following competition was bound to be extremely tragic.
However, when they looked at the famous experts from the Yuwen and Shangguan families, and then at the few people from the Ling family who were not well known except for Ling zhongxuan, they could not get excited at all.
The difference in strength was really a little too big. Let alone winning, it would be good enough if Ling Chuxi and the others did not die on the spot. Thinking about the one-sided slaughter that was about to happen, they felt even more sympathy for the Ling family.
As for those who could not help but express their goodwill to the Ling family in advance, they were also filled with regret. If they had known that the dignified law enforcement elder could also be so despicable, they would not have shown their goodwill to the Ling family too early. After the Shangguan Yuwen family and the Shangguan family had dealt with Ling Chuxi and the others, it would probably be their turn.
Either sympathizing or vexing, none of the aristocratic family disciples present cheered. Instead, they all sighed in unison.
It was the grandest great election in the Qing-Yun realm, yet no one cheered at the beginning. Instead, tens of thousands of people sighed. It was unprecedented. It was a great irony to the two elders.
However, Elder Gong’s expression did not change. As long as he got rid of Ling Chuxi and the others today, he would also cut off the Ling family’s hope. In a few years, the Ling family would be completely destroyed under the joint suppression of the Shangguan and Yuwen families. They might even be wiped out from the ranks of the ancient aristocratic families. By then, who would still remember today’s events?
“Let’s start. ” Elder Gong said indifferently. The way he looked at Ling Chuxi and the others was as if he was looking at a few dead people.
The ancient Bell chimed nine times in a row, signaling the start of the competition.
On the tall stage, sword gleams, Thunder, and saber Qi danced in the air, and golden clangs sounded one after another.
To be able to participate in the great clan’s adjudication election, which one of them wasn’t a cultivation genius of their own clan? the minimum requirement was to be at the monarch level, and the martial techniques and spiritual spells that the great clans kept a secret from outsiders were also fully displayed in their hands. For a moment, the wind and clouds surged, and the entire city amongst the clouds was shrouded in the vast and majestic Qi activity, making it particularly peaceful and solemn.
It was only now that everyone realized, to their surprise, that the people of the Ling family were not as weak as they had thought. Although the lot drawing had been tampered with, and Ling zhongxuan, Ling Zhongxiao, Ling Ziyun, Ling Yitong, and the others ‘abilities were just slightly weaker than their opponents, when they really fought, there was no one-sided situation.
Although they were all surrounded by danger, at each critical moment, they would always make a sudden move to save themselves. It was obvious that the combat ability and adaptability of these people from the Ling family were far above their opponents.
“Yi, I didn’t think that these guys from the Ling clan would still have a trick up their sleeves. Don’t look at how their cultivation is lower than others, they’re not the least bit careless when they fight.” One of the disciples said in surprise. Although he said the word ‘fellow’, he didn’t look down on him at all. Instead, he felt close to him.
