Chapter 38 Senior Brother of Yuanfu
The mountains stand tall, shrouded in clouds and mist.
One of them had its peak leveled, and a large platform was placed in the middle. The platform was divided into ten areas marked with red lines, and all of them were now filled with contestants.
However, there seemed to be a slight restlessness among these contestants.
The reason lies in the empty main seat on the judging panel.
Why hasn't the Lord of the Manor appeared yet?
Has something happened at Yuan Mansion?
"These young people nowadays are so impatient, aren't they, Minfeng?" Instructor Haijialan, bored, decided to tease the seemingly serious person next door via telepathy, "Do you think those two kids can make it?"
Minfeng sat upright with a solemn expression, warning the disciples on the arena to behave themselves with his eyes, while also replying telepathically: "Nephew Su Yu and Nephew Feng Huaijin would not make such a mistake."
Just by looking at their perfectly handled paperwork, you can tell that these two junior apprentices are much more reliable than their senior apprentice, Wuxi.
"But the journey is indeed quite long, that's Tarasha..."
Before another mentor from Wanliu could finish speaking, two figures suddenly appeared at the edge of the platform.
Minfeng's lips curled up slightly without his noticing, and he said softly, "They're here."
At the edge of the platform, both demons wore masks.
The main reason is that once you enter a densely populated area of demons, the frequency of being intercepted and approached is really high.
Su Yu, in particular, despite her cold and indifferent appearance, has a lot of desire to challenge the unrestrained demon men and women of this type, causing quite a bit of trouble along the way.
In the end, Su Yu adopted Feng Huaijin's suggestion and covered her face completely with a pure black mask. Feng Huaijin also put on a mask, and their journey became much smoother.
In addition, Jin Rong originally planned to say goodbye and go home after they had trained in the area around Liuhua City, but when he heard that they were going to Yuanfu, he immediately asked to come along and said that he could pay more magic stones for it.
Although he is too old to enter the Abyss Palace, what if there is a treasure in the Abyss Palace region that can heal and restore his body?
After all, the Yuan Mansion is located at the foot of the mountain range, where various forces operate many merchant shops, so the probability of finding treasures is high.
Upon arriving at Yuancheng at the foot of the mountain, Jin Rong had already taken his leave.
Now that they had arrived, Su Yu quickly scanned the empty seats on the judging panel, then darted over to the panel and gracefully greeted the mentors, displaying composure and elegance.
Feng Huaijin naturally followed him.
Minfeng nodded slightly and said gently, "Please sit down. You should announce the start now."
Su Yu responded and sat down, with Feng Huaijin sitting to her side and slightly behind.
The disciples on the platform were all watching him.
This year's students are all his junior brothers and sisters.
Roughly equivalent to a younger brother or sister.
Su Yu's eyes slowly brightened, he straightened his posture, and his aura became increasingly cold and detached, revealing the demeanor of an elder brother.
He announced in a deep voice, "The Yuanfu Grand Competition officially begins!"
"Disciple has a question!" someone suddenly shouted, "What are the identities of these two newcomers?!"
Su Yu narrowed her eyes. It seemed that her junior brother was quite disobedient.
He spoke calmly: "I am the chief disciple of the prefect, attending on behalf of my master as ordered by him."
This stirred up the demon horde even more, and another demon shouted, "Isn't that our senior brother? Why don't you come up on stage and fight, senior brother? Otherwise, we won't accept it!"
Before Su Yu could get anxious, Feng Huaijin stood up abruptly, his tall figure casting a shadow.
As he grew older, his increasingly cold and hard eyebrows revealed a fierce look, but he was still handsome. There weren't many male demons in the demon realm who were more handsome than him, and Su Yu was one of them.
"No need for the eldest brother, but the second brother can spar with you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Huaijin flew directly onto the arena and landed with perfect precision in the area where the disgruntled disciple was located.
The area suddenly fell silent, which was quite noticeable.
"Heh~" Su Yu chuckled and shook his head, then stood up and slowly walked onto the arena. "Don't rush, junior brother, I want to have a go too."
If they don't listen, just beat them until they obey; he's experienced in that.
The mentors on the sidelines remained silent throughout the process, only noticing that Su Yu and Feng Huaijin had chosen their positions before having Master Minfeng announce the start again.
The gongs and drums on one side were suddenly struck, and at the same time, the ten areas marked by red lines broke into a chaotic melee.
Once each region has ten players remaining, the red line will be removed, and the remaining disciples will continue the free-for-all.
Frost and fire flew together, and hidden weapons and swords danced together; this could barely summarize the chaos on the field.
This competition is the first ranking tournament for this year's disciples. The faster you leave the stage, the lower your ranking will be. Nobody wants to fall behind, and nobody wants to be the junior sister/brother.
The other disciples in Su Yu's area, perhaps out of some fear of his senior brother's reputation, did not have any demons come to him after the battle started; instead, they all found their own opponents to fight.
In order not to be alone, some would even ride together in groups of three or five.
Su Yu glanced in the direction of Feng Huaijin from afar, and seeing him effortlessly slap down a string of disciples with his sword, she came back to her senses with relief.
To teach junior brothers and sisters to respect their senior brother, there's no need to use the Moon Demon talent; the Frost Flowing Sword is more than enough.
He turned his right hand, and a few points of cold light appeared in his palm, forming the Flowing Frost Sword that had been through countless battles.
Looking around, Su Yu randomly picked a group of people fighting and entered the fray with her sword.
The first move of Frost Flowing, The Sorrow of Cold Water.
The demon youths who were fighting together felt a chill all over their bodies. When they tried to move, their bodies were stiff, as if they had been frozen. Their clothes and weapons were covered with bits of ice.
Before they could react, the world suddenly spun around them, and when they came to their senses, they found themselves kicked out of the ring.
The remaining demons gradually stopped fighting, staring at Su Yu and secretly assessing the difference in strength between themselves and this senior brother.
Su Yu's lips curled slightly beneath the mask as he beckoned to the remaining disciples with his fingertips.
Good grief, is this a provocation? You're not a demon if you don't fight!
Instantly, the demons swarmed forward, each displaying their unique abilities.
Talismans, pills, poisons, arrays...
Spear, hammer, halberd, whip...
They would stop at nothing, all for the sake of challenging the top disciple.
The faces of the demons who had stepped down were not good, but they quickly lost their sadness.
Because there will be a steady stream of classmates being thrown out of the arena to keep them company.
Seeing this, the young men's faces softened considerably, and they couldn't suppress the smug grin spreading across their faces.
This is probably what it means: even though I'm not good enough, seeing that you're not good enough either, and that everyone is not good enough, instantly makes me feel psychologically balanced.
"Hey, isn't this the third son of the Sun family? He's out so early?"
"Not at all, Wang Laosi, you're not slow either."
During this exchange of pleasantries, both sides wore forced smiles, clearly neither feeling that the other was much better than themselves.
After the red line was removed, Feng Huaijin naturally stood beside Su Yu.
The remaining disciples in other areas also surrounded them with remarkable coordination, clearly preparing for a group attack.
Su Yu glanced around and saw that Hua Xian and Yu Ronglan were standing together, clearly forming an alliance.
Yu Ronglan left early and didn't know, but Hua Xian would occasionally glance at the Frost Flowing Sword in his hand.
A hint of interest flashed in his eyes, and he opened his lips and softly uttered a single word.
