Myriad Spirits Immortal Clan

Chapter 44: Clan Competition Begins

The atmosphere on the entire Lingyun Peak shifted in an instant.

Every cultivator of the Ye family also wore expressions of anger.

To be forced by other families to kill the guardian spirit beast, the Ancestral Turtle, in such a way, and then have them leave triumphantly.

At this moment, they were all filled with anger.

Ye Xingliu also stepped forward. As the head of the family, he had to speak at this moment to restore the Ye family's morale:

"From today onwards, all family stipends will be increased by 50%. At the same time, for cultivators who have not made progress for a long time, their stipends will be halved. In addition, the top three in the clan competition will be able to obtain the family's spirit beast or cultivation technique as a reward!"

"The top ten in the clan competition will receive spirit stone rewards, or a bottle of spirit pills or magical artifacts!"

"In addition, the specific reward details and family policies will also change greatly, and the detailed rules will be announced at that time!"

"In short, cultivate diligently, otherwise, when the family truly declines and becomes scattered cultivators, you don't need me to say what that kind of life will be like!"

...

Ye Xingliu spoke continuously, his voice full of majesty. His words also changed the expressions of everyone present.

Although the Ye family was not a Zifu (Purple Mansion) clan, it was still one of the four great Foundation Establishment clans south of Taihang. If they were to become scattered cultivators, that would be a true nightmare!

A sense of tension and urgency began to spread from top to bottom among everyone.

Everyone put away their usual casual and leisurely attitudes.

Ye Jingcheng also felt anger in his heart.

The Blood Heart Pill, purchased for tens of thousands of spirit stones, had a problem, causing the death of the mountain-protecting spirit beast.

However, he was still puzzled. Ye Xingliu didn't reply to him, didn't respond, and he felt that all of this seemed to fit the ideas of the other four great families too well.

In his observation, the Ye family shouldn't be like this…

While Ye Jingcheng hesitated, the clan competition had already begun.

Everyone retreated to the martial arts field.

This was a vast open space with countless huge stone platforms. On weekdays, Ye family cultivators taught spells here.

Today, it was also used as the venue for the clan competition.

Arriving at the plaza, Ye Jingcheng also discovered that almost all members of the Ye family had arrived.

Looking around, there were more than a hundred cultivators.

Most of them were in the mid-stage or early-stage of Qi training, while those in the late-stage of Qi training only accounted for a small portion.

The clan competition was divided into three arenas: one for the early-stage of Qi training, one for the mid-stage, and one for the seventh and eighth layers of Qi training.

As for the ninth layer of Qi training, they were already elders of the Ye family and didn't need to participate.

The participating cultivators were all under the age of fifty.

There were as many as fifty people, including twenty in the early-stage of Qi training, twenty in the mid-stage, and only eight in the seventh and eighth layers.

Being able to compete meant they could win awards.

As for those over fifty years old, they were also excluded. After all, in the world of cultivation, the best time to break through to Foundation Establishment was before the age of sixty.

Beyond this age, their vitality would decline, and the possibility of breaking through would be extremely low.

And if one failed to break through to Foundation Establishment without the Foundation Establishment Pill protecting their heart, failure meant death.

As a Foundation Establishment clan, the Ye family naturally couldn't accept too many cultivators constantly failing to break through.

Ye Jingcheng was assigned to the mid-stage Qi training group. He had great confidence in himself. Regardless of his own abilities, or his Scarlet Flame Fox and Golden Scale Beast, he had the capital to challenge the seventh layer of Qi training.

At this moment, he wanted to compete for the top three and choose a better cultivation technique from the family.

As for spirit beasts, he also thought of the spirit egg of the Blood Leech spirit beast, but Ye Jingcheng then shook his head.

What he lacked now was spirit stones. Raising two spirit beasts was already giving him a headache.

"Everyone, prepare yourselves, it will start in an hour!" Ye Xinghe, who was in charge of the mid-stage Qi training arena, said in a heavy voice. At this moment, the fat on his face conveyed a sense of ferocity.

This was a huge difference from the appearance of his uncle that Ye Jingcheng had seen in the past.

Obviously, it was Ye Xinghe who bought the Blood Heart Pill, and he probably didn't feel good about it either.

Ye Jingcheng also honestly sat down on the spot to rest. Although he didn't waste any spiritual energy during the cleanup just now, maintaining the best state was also conducive to him winning first place in the mid-stage Qi training.

Ye Jingcheng looked at his second brother, Ye Jingyong, and then at his sixth brother, Ye Jingli. These were his main competitors, both at the sixth layer of Qi training.

Especially his second brother, Ye Jingyong, whose strength was obvious to everyone in the Jing generation of the Ye family. Ye Jingcheng was also very wary of that small seal artifact!

While meditating, Ye Xingliu's voice transmission sounded in Ye Jingcheng's mind again.

"If you don't want to be possessed, keep your secret safe!"

Ye Jingcheng was shocked. He looked around, wanting to see Ye Xingliu, but found that Ye Xingliu and Ye Haicheng, the two Foundation Establishment cultivators, had disappeared when the clan competition started.

"Stop looking, focus on the competition, don't think you can be careless just because you have the Beast Communication Tattoo!"

"Also, keep today's voice transmission to yourself!"

Ye Xingliu's words sounded again, and then disappeared.

At this moment, Ye Jingcheng's heart couldn't help but beat wildly.

Ye Xingliu received his voice transmission, but didn't let him try it out. Now he even told him to keep it a secret, which made him suspect.

Was the Ancestral Turtle really dead?

He wanted to ask more questions, and his stomach was full of doubts, but he saw that the Ye family members in front of him were all like they had been injected with chicken blood, cultivating even more attentively.

And the other three great families and the Xu family would probably relax their vigilance.

If the Ancestral Turtle hadn't fallen, then this time, the Ye family would be the real winner!

And Ye Haiyun would also be able to ask for leave to come back because of this.

Ye Jingcheng didn't dare to continue imagining, but he suddenly realized that what he saw might be different from the truth.

Ye Jingcheng quickly shook his head again. He was just a mid-stage Qi training cultivator, and there was no need to think so much.

On the contrary, winning the first place in the current mid-stage Qi training and choosing a better cultivation technique than the Li Fire Technique was the most important thing for him right now.

After thinking this way in his heart, Ye Jingcheng also began to concentrate and calm his mind.

Since there was no need to restore spiritual energy, he slowly circulated the Li Fire Technique to cultivate his spiritual power for a while.

Now that the spirit array was wide open, it released more spiritual energy from the spirit veins, which was even more conducive to the cultivation of cultivators.

"Alright, you've adjusted enough, come up and draw lots!" Ye Xinghe's heavy voice awakened everyone.

Then, countless bamboo sticks were taken out, each marked with a number.

These numbers would determine the challengers!

Ye Jingcheng also got up and began to draw lots.

"Jingcheng, you have to be careful, my Flying Cloud Leopard has become stronger recently!" Ye Jingyong said when he saw Ye Jingcheng.

This second brother of his was more talkative and competitive.

Ye Jingcheng just returned a smile.

In his heart, he still hoped that Ye Jingyong's Flying Cloud Leopard had really become much stronger.

Otherwise, he always felt that taking out the Scarlet Flame Fox was bullying others!

In fact, he should enter the late-stage Qi training group!

However, even so, being able to get a reward in the mid-stage Qi training, Ye Jingcheng would still prefer to be in the mid-stage!
