Family Meeting (2)
If anyone entered the Long Family, they could see a bustling crowd. Today was the day of the family meeting which would also determine who is worthy of the position of their young master.
Tian Long could be seen entering the battle hall. Looking at the place, he would say he was impressed. The place had at least 1,000 seats which made him guess that other families would be coming. Also it is an open air arena, meaning from the arena you can have view of the sky.
Walking towards his designated seat, he could hear bad murmurs about him but he didn't care because he learnt one thing transmigratimg to this world.
“In this world, personal strength matters the most. Even though you have a backer or influence once they fail or forsake you, you would know you are nothing without them”
Sitting down he began to glance around with his mischievous eyes. Different Long family cultivator could be seen with determined expression. This match could change their status if they could stand out.
“Hmph, at last I caught you. Let's see where you can run to” He heard a familiar female voice as he looked at who was talking.
Looking at the person who was talking “Why would I run away this time*. It was the lady who was chasing him when the Ancient Yang body was activated making him have naughty thoughts.
As he wanted to continue his chat, the formation eye trembled the signal of a physique near him. Checking the young lady, she had the Moon Physique ranked 30th on the list. It is a strong physique that has the ability to harness moon power. Also her cultivation is at the peak-stage of body refining realm which shows that she is not to be underestimated but that's not for him
Thinking of their last meeting, he noticed a problem about the formation eye “I don't completely know how the formation eye work but when she was chasing him, the formation eye didn't give any signal. So does this means the formation eye can't work with someone eyes closed”
“It looks like there is no technique without flaws” Tian Long sighed.
“It looks like everyone is underestimating the young master of the Long Family”
“Oh, why do you say that” Tian Long said as he snapped out of his thoughts.
Her lips curled up into a smile as she said in a low tone “When I was chasing you last time you were able to outrun me even though I was using at least 50% of my strength which means you are not a trash cultivator everyone was talking about”
Hearing her words, there was no change to Tian Long expression disappointing the young lady.
“It looks like I have to be careful about revealing too much of my strength” luckily she reminded him because sometimes hidden strength could be helpful.
“So Why are you here?. You know ladies can't be family head of the Long Family”
“Just want to test myself and also the meeting does not sound as it seems” she said as she took her leave.
“It looks like apart from the position of the young master there is another motive behind it! I didn't even ask of her name” Tian Long facepalmed himself remembering this.
Time passed as more guests arrived. Tian Long saw as the crowd starting murmuring as three middle aged men entered the battle arena being welcomed by the elders of the family.
As for their strength, Tian Long can say it is unfathomable for his current cultivation. The middle aged men were also accompanied by some young men and lady.
From the murmurs from the crowd, he was able to know they were the head of the Murong Family, Chen Family and Duanmu family. They were all accompanied by young men and women.
Not long after they arrived, another guest arrived; a young man in his 20s. This time, it wasn't only the elder of the Long Family but also the head of the three families that went to welcome this young man
“Welcome, city lord” They all said in unison. Tian Long hearing this was surprised by this. He didn't expect the city lord face should be so young. His predecessor had not seen the city lord before so that's why he didn't know of the city lord and how his appearance was.
All taking their seat, the third elder of the Long family came to the battle arena and pronounced “I hereby commence the beginning of the Long Family meeting!”
“I would be the referee for this battle. All talent of the Long Family with cultivation not less than 6th level body refining realm and within the age range of 15 and 20 should come out”
Hearing this, Tian Long stood up heading towards the battle arena. Looking at the arena closely, the arena was big enough to contain 100 people conveniently.
“I am delighted to say that 46 cultivators has emerged fron the Long Family for this family meeting” The third elder said with a joyous expression.
“What is the trash young master doing here, this is not a child game” a burly young man laughed saying this.
The crowd started murmuring hearing this. As a trash, his cultivation cannot reach the sixth level of body refining realm. That's what they thought until this….
“And how are you so sure that i have not reached the sixth level of body refining realm” Tian Long retorted back as he released his cultivation realm as sixth level of body refining realm shocking the entire crowd.
During his training, Uncle Don Ming taught him how to hide his cultivation, if he shows that he is in 6th body refining realm that's how it will be. But the only repercussion of this, is that he would only have the strength and the limit of a sixth level body refining realm.
Everyone who saw his cultivation was shocked. The reputation of Tian Long was popular known as someone who can't reach third level body refining realm but it looks they all underestimated this trash young master.
The burly man who said this was embarrassed, with Tian Long mischievous eyes it was as if Tian Long was taunting him. “Let's see if you are able to leave this arena in one piece” The burly man smirked.
Tian Long looked at the burly man aware of the hidden threat in the words. The burly young man cultivation was at 7th level body refining realm which made him had the arrogance to say that to Tian Long.
“In this section, out of you 46 cultivators. 20 must remain on the arena to continue the family meeting. What this means is that if your leg can leave the arena and touch the ground, you are disqualified” The third elder began to explain what this selection entails.
“I hereby commence the beginning of the family meeting” The third elder said.
Hearing this, the whole arena turn messy as the fight began. Meanwhile as the fight began
“Let's bet on who would win this family meeting” The first elder said to the other elders.
“I bet five low level spirit stones that Long Ce would emerge as the winner” The fourth elder said
“I bet a profound grade spear on Long Yan” The second elder said with confidence
“I bet four low level spirit stone……”
The elders started betting on who to win this meeting. “I bet a spelder cleansing pill on Tian Long” The first elder said shocking the rest of the elders.
A spirit cleansing pill is a rare pill used for the cleansing of spiritual qi. If one's spiritual qi is not pure to a certain rate, one cannot break through the spirit core realm. The pill is more useful for those below spirit core realm
“Haaa…, Long Weng i never thought you are so shortsighted and delusional that you think this trash would win this family meeting” The second elder laughed as he said this.
Other elders nodded their head affirming the words of the second elder. But the first elder smiled.
One day when he was walking through the Long Family , due to his cultivation he felt a change in the surroundings. Checking the source of this, he found out that it was from Tian Long quarters
Peeping at Tian Long, he saw Tian Long practicing with the destructive power not less than eighth level body refining realm. With the ability to refine pills it looks like everyone had underestimated the young master.
“Little boy, don't disappoint me” The first elder smiled as he looked at Tian Long who was at the arena.
As the third elder commenced the match. The burly man who threatened Tian Long came to him
“Trash, it looks like your luck has run out” The burly man started laughing.
