Chapter 2057
Starting early in the morning, the people of the various bloodlines of the Divine Dragon Clan began to gather in front of the enormous sculpture of Emperor Xuanyuan, who rode a dragon and wielded a sword.
The towering statue of the Divine Emperor was like a giant spirit god with a pair of vivid eyes overlooking the millions of Divine Dragon clansmen within the city.
At this time, all the streets and alleys in the city were empty, and everyone came to pay their respects.
Ye Fan brought Su Qingxue with him, and behind them was Ye Hang. As for Ye Xianqing and Ye Danqing, because of their family\'s status, they were separated by a group of people and were at the back of the group.
In fact, in front of Ye Fan, there was a large group of unfamiliar people from the Ye Family.
There were already dozens of his grandfather\'s brothers from Ye Zhaoxuan\'s generation. Although many of them were unfamiliar with each other, there was nothing they could do. There were too many people, so they could not meet often.
What made Ye Fan even more at a loss of whether to laugh or to cry was that even further forward, there was a group of great-grandfather\'s elders from the Ye family. Some of them were from the Elders Guild, while others had already left the Elders Guild.
Amongst them, there were many elders who were already over a thousand years old. They would only appear occasionally once or twice a year, and many of their descendants wouldn\'t be able to recognize them.
Of course, these elders who could be considered true \'ancestors\' were actually not interested in interacting with the juniors who were separated by tens of generations.
All in all, there were tens of thousands of the Ye Family!
Ye Fan, as the Young Marquis of Zhenbei, and Prince Consort of the Prince Consort, was actually quite insignificant in such a large group of members of the Ye Family.
After all, the Ye Family\'s ancestors, the Prince Consort, and even some of the most prestigious figures were all gone.
On the high platform, the current clan head, Ji Changgong, and the Great Elder, Yao Xingzhi, held an ancestral worship ceremony with the Patriarchs of the Divine Dragon Clan as witnesses.
Over a million people kneeled down with serious expressions. This scene shocked even Ye Fan.
On Earth, his sense of belonging to his clan wasn\'t strong, but at this moment, he felt his blood boiling …
Back then, the ancestors of the Divine Dragon Clan did not prostrate themselves in worship of Great Emperor Xuanyuan, but ever since Emperor Xuanyuan became the representative of the Divine Dragon Clan, he had never changed in the last ten thousand years.
Although the ceremony was grand, it lasted only an hour.
The crowd gradually dispersed, but there were also tens of thousands of clan members who walked toward the Divine Dragon Martial Arts Practice Field.
Every year, the thing that the clansmen looked forward to the most was the Dragon God Competition. They watched as someone from the younger generation emerged.
For cultivators, each year could change a lot, so every year was a brand-new situation.
"Huang Tu, it should be Fan\'er this year, right?" Ye Zhaoxuan asked on the way to the training field.
"Yes, father, but Yan-er also wants to go on stage. He said that Qi Tong from the Qi Family beat Dan Qing, and he wants to fight her back," Ye Huangtu replied respectfully.
"Oh? Like his father, Qitong was a domineering person. Haha … "Good, you\'re worthy of being a descendant of our Zhenbei Mansion, you have guts!"
Ye Zhaoxuan smiled in satisfaction. He turned around and patted Ye Hang on the shoulder. "Yi\'er, that Qitong is two levels higher than you. Are you confident?"
Ye Hang said with a smug look on his face, "Grandpa, don\'t worry. Two levels of Zhen Yuan is nothing. It\'s not like you can\'t break through the defense.
As long as my combat skills surpass his, he is also no match for me!
I, in the northern army of the town, have defeated the seventh level Spirit Severing general in a spar! "
"Haha!" Good! Then Grandpa will be waiting to see you perform! "
As Ye Zhaoxuan spoke, he turned around and patted Ye Fan\'s back, "Fan\'er, this is your first time participating in the Large Competition, but in terms of age, this is also your last.
Remember, do not feel any pressure. You are a rising star, and the clan values you greatly.
This assassination attempt by the Huaxu Family showed that your potential had made some people nervous.
"No matter how you play, as long as you try your best, you won\'t have confidence if you lose. You still have a long way to go, do you understand?"
Ye Fan forced a smile, "I haven\'t even fought yet, why are you already waiting for me to lose?"
"Haha …" "Don\'t you dare talk too much. It\'s mainly because your grandfather saw too many clansmen who were unable to recover from their failures, that\'s why he specifically reminded you."
Ye Zhaoxuan sighed with emotion. He pointed his finger in front of him. There were a few people walking silently behind him. They were the ancestors of the Ye Clan.
There weren\'t many people who would talk to them, because no one knew them. From start to finish, they had been very low-key.
"Did you see that? Those ancestors are actually more than a thousand years old, but for the past thousand years, they have always been stuck in Heaven Stealing, Longevity, and even …
Although it is not a big deal if we were to put it in the Great Wastelands, many people in our clan will have their confidence crushed.
Looking at the people of the same age, one by one, they walked towards the Heavenly King, Heavenly Emperor, and Sheng Domain …
Not only that, they were also constantly being surpassed by their younger generation and were being looked down upon by more and more people.
Many clansmen couldn\'t bear it and left the clan.
In fact, there were even some who died as their Dao hearts became unstable, and their cultivation went berserk. In fact, there were even some who committed suicide.
Even if a cultivator lived a long life, this was not necessarily a good thing. Living … "It\'s actually not that easy," Ye Zhaoxuan sighed.
Ye Fan blanked out for a moment. He had really not paid attention to these things before, but now that he thought about it more carefully, it was indeed cruel and realistic.
Ye Huangtu said seriously, "Don\'t let your grandpa down. Take advantage of your young age and don\'t slack off!"
"Yes, Father! Grandfather!" Ye Hang replied with a serious look on his face.
Ye Fan also didn\'t say anything, only nodding his head. Fortunately, he already understood the word \'hard work\' from the start.
Arriving at the Martial Arts Practice Grounds, the people from various factions all arrived at their respective areas.
On a nearby high platform were the judges of the Large Competition. The judges were Yao Xingzhi, Feng Qinglan, and other experts of the Heavenly King Tribe.
A dozen large screens of ancient stones were placed around the training field.
The young disciples\' names, photos, and brief introductions of all the different factions had already appeared.
Below this battle system, there was another line: Cloud\'s Conglomerate\'s Reputation.
When Ye Fan saw this scene, he couldn\'t help but smile. This Chu Yunyao\'s business was really doing this all over the world.
The chief, Ji Changgong, smiled as he walked to the center of the stage. He activated his voice with true energy and his voice spread throughout the entire stage.
"The clan elders, elders, clan masters, and fellow clansmen of the Divine Dragon Clan, the annual Divine Dragon Tournament is about to begin again.
The rules were the same as before. According to the level of their cultivation, they divided the young participants into groups.
When selecting your opponents, you can either randomly choose them or choose your own.
However, those with high cultivation bases in the first three rounds were not allowed to choose those with low cultivation bases. Those with low cultivation bases were able to challenge those with high cultivation bases …
After three rounds, one could choose to give up on the Large Competition and continue participating. However, everyone would have to spar together and compete for the championship.
All weapons can be used, but it has to be a standard weapon provided on the spot. All methods and moves can be used …
Admitting defeat, the referee admitting defeat, and falling from the arena would result in defeat.
He who intentionally kills others will be severely punished! "Accidental death, discretionary measures to be taken after the investigation …"
Ye Fan sat in his seat, listening to these rules, muttering to himself, this rule is pretty interesting, but I just don\'t know what the champion\'s reward is.
Just as he was thinking that, he heard Ji Changgong say with a smile, "I guess all of the young people present are very curious about the rewards for this year\'s tournament...
Haha, the prizes from past years have all been given to spirit weapons, but the cultivation pills are different this year.
Winning the championship will allow you to obtain an additional slot, and then, you will be able to follow our Shen Long family\'s delegation to visit the \'Immortal Palace\' in the next year! "
The moment he said this, the entire audience went into an uproar. Many people stood up in excitement, and even the elders and experts from various factions revealed a trace of desire!
Ye Fan was completely confused. What does this reward mean, travelling together? Why was he so excited about visiting an immortal palace?
