"But did you guys notice? Lu Yuan's talent level is actually SSS-level, a rare occurrence in decades!"
"Looking across the entire capital, there are no more than ten juniors who have awakened SSS-level talent. If they can be nurtured, the Lu family might just soar to new heights!"
"Hmph! What's the use? Even if you fight with all your might, you still can't beat Lu Siming!"
In the audience seats.
The crowd was buzzing with discussion.
Some people were amazed by Lu Yuan's awakened SSS-level talent, while a few mocked Lu Yuan's arrogance, saying that he didn't know his own limitations just because he had some ability.
But everyone is looking forward to the showdown between Lu Yuan and Lu Siming, which is sure to be very exciting!
In contrast, the elders of the Lu family on the high platform were not so calm.
"As expected of the young master, he has actually awakened an SSS-level beast taming talent. The Lu family has hope!"
"Hmph! So what if he has high awakened talent? Such an arrogant and conceited personality is bound to bring disaster to the Lu family!"
"So what? The sons of the Lu family should be fearless!"
The elders argued amongst themselves until their faces turned red and their necks bulged.
In particular, several elders who originally supported the main lineage had been ostracized and suppressed by the Grand Elder and others since Lu Yuan's foundation was destroyed two years ago. In the end, for the sake of the Lu family's future, they had no choice but to join the Grand Elder's faction and support Lu Siming.
The sudden discovery that Lu Yuan had awakened an SSS-level Beast Taming talent was nothing short of a miracle for them!
Regardless of whether it was the Grand Elder or Lu Siming, they immediately switched their support to Lu Yuan.
As the head of the Lu family and Lu Yuan's father, Lu Zhaoming was so excited that he stood up from his chair, his eyes shining.
"Excellent! As expected of my son, Lu Zhaoming!"
As he spoke, he couldn't help but burst into laughter.
These words and actions infuriated the Grand Elder and the others. If it weren't for the large number of forces present, they would have rushed down and killed Lu Yuan right now!
Ignoring the furious stares of the Grand Elder and others, Lu Zhaoming waved his hand and immediately made the announcement.
"The first round of selection is over. Next, we will proceed to the second round of competition—the individual arena battle!"
“The thirteen of you may choose to be the champions at will. The rest of you may challenge. If any side loses the ability to fight or is knocked off the stage, it is equivalent to admitting defeat.”
"The winner will remain on the stage to continue accepting challenges, while the loser will be disqualified. The last person standing on the stage will be the winner of the day and will become the heir of the Lu family!"
"You now have ten minutes to prepare. The match will officially begin in ten minutes!"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the training ground hurriedly stepped down to prepare their weapons and equipment.
Lu Siming stared intently at Lu Yuan's retreating figure, his eyes filled with jealousy and hatred.
According to his plan, Lu Yuan should be dead in Yunlei City by now, so why has he returned to the capital?!
And what are those assassins doing, Elder?
I clearly received a message to hunt him down, so how come he appeared here unharmed!
waste!
They're all useless!
The more Lu Siming thought about it, the more agitated he became, and the more vicious his gaze became towards Lu Yuan.
Since no one else is of any use, then he will kill Lu Yuan himself!
So what if it's an SSS-level talent?
He was six levels higher than Lu Yuan, so Lu Yuan was definitely no match for him. Killing him would be as easy as killing a chicken!
In the Lu family, no one is allowed to be more outstanding than him!
...
Lu Yuan noticed Lu Siming's intense gaze behind him, but he didn't take it seriously at all. After stepping off the stage, he casually leaned against the wall and closed his eyes to rest.
Seeing his appearance, both the audience and the other disciples were taken aback.
"What's this guy doing? Why is he sleeping!"
"Could it be that he's given up on himself? He used to spout so much nonsense, I thought he was so great!"
"That's hilarious! Is that all? Lu Siming doesn't even need to lift a finger; anyone else could beat him to a pulp!"
The audience erupted in laughter.
When the other young men in the audience realized what had happened, they immediately felt that they had been looked down upon and insulted.
They were preparing for the competition with such tension and seriousness, and this guy just fell asleep on the spot, completely disregarding them!
That's absolutely outrageous!
Seeing the indignant looks on the faces of those around him, Lu Siming curled the corners of his lips into a smile.
He really is a fool with a title but no substance!
This has angered everyone, and he wants to see how Lu Yuan will handle the situation!
After glancing at Lu Yuan one last time, Lu Siming went backstage to put on his gear.
The winner of today's family competition can only be him!
...
Ten minutes later.
All twelve disciples who advanced to the second round returned to the training ground, while Lu Yuan remained standing below the stage with his eyes closed.
Lu Zhaoyang didn't pay any attention and immediately made the announcement.
"The second round of competition has officially begun!"
The twelve disciples looked at each other, none of them wanting to go up and become the champion.
joke!
This second round of competition tests who can stand to the end. Going up now means facing everyone else. Even Lu Siming, who is exceptionally strong, does not dare to claim that he can defeat everyone. After more than a dozen rounds of gauntlet battles, he will be worn down to death!
Just when the situation suddenly reached a stalemate, a tall and strong young man, as big as a bull, suddenly jumped onto the stage.
He glanced at Lu Yuan below the stage, his eyes widening in surprise.
"Lu Yuan, come up here!"
Lu Yuan slowly opened his eyes and glanced at him casually.
"Do you think I'm stupid? Going up there now and having to take on the remaining eleven people by myself is a thankless and exhausting task. I'm not doing it!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Zhongxiu was so angry that his nostrils flared up.
What do you mean he wants to take on the remaining eleven people by himself?
Has Lu Yuan already decided he can defeat me?!
That's utterly overestimating themselves!
"You deserted in the face of battle! You don't deserve to be called a man! And you even dared to dream of becoming the heir of the Lu family? What a pipe dream!"
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Lu Yuan with extreme contempt, clearly agreeing with Lu Zhongxiu's words.
Lu Siming smirked with schadenfreude.
It seems that his subtle hints from the audience had worked.
Lu Yuan is now in a difficult situation.
If Lu Yuan doesn't accept challenges, he's a cowardly and timid person, and has no right to be the heir of the Lu family.
If you accept the challenge...
Oh!
Once Lu Yuan's spiritual power has been almost completely depleted by the others, I'll go up on stage and kill him!
Let others see who the strongest genius in the Lu family really is!
Lu Siming was happily daydreaming when he saw Lu Yuan suddenly change his lazy demeanor and speak in a deep voice.
"Since you're courting death, then I'll grant your wish!"
As he spoke.
Amidst the gasps of the crowd, Lu Yuan leaped onto the stage.
"Today I'll show you what fatherly love is all about!"
