18th Generation Son-in-law - C197
Yao Yuan’s plan was very good.
The [Rocket Jump] was a move that he had just thought of recently. Taoist Xu Hua had never seen it before, he had thought of this as a surprise attack that would definitely cause Taoist Xu Hua to have a whole new level of respect for him.
However, the facts proved that there were still a lot of things that Yao Yuan couldn’t imagine.
Just as Yao Yuan was about to rush over, the Taoist Xu Hua finally made his move.
Seeing that the Taoist Xu Hua had made a move, Yao Yuan felt a burst of excitement in his heart. After all, he was finally able to successfully reach his side, but the next scene that happened left Yao Yuan completely disheartened.
The Daoist waved his hand, and Yao Yuan smashed into it as if he had collided into something.
“This …”
Yao Yuan felt a little pain in his head.
Taoist Xu Hua finally laughed out loud, reverting back to how he looked when he first met Yao Yuan. He looked at him and said: “What, do you still want to be called Xiu Xiu Xiu in front of me?”
Yao Yuan felt a little uncomfortable. He crawled up from the ground, patted his butt and said: “Master, isn’t this too much. Isn’t it just those stairs, or a test from you?”
The Taoist Xu Hua pretended to be mysterious as he shook his head and said, “It is neither. Actually, this staircase is not a test, it is a necessary item to go up the Skills Competition.”
Yao Yuan was extremely shocked, not because of the incident with the Skills Competition but because his Master already knew what he wanted to say before he could even say it out loud.
“You know what I want to ask?”
“How could I not know what this child is thinking? Isn’t it because of the Skills Competition? ”
Taoist Xu Hua acted as if it was natural.
Yao Yuan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, and said: “Indeed, just now I heard that one of the enemies is going to participate in some kind of Pond Fish Skills Competition, I don’t know what is going on, so I hurriedly asked Master.”
“Oh? You know how to ask me now? Why didn’t you think of me the last time you left the Cloud Gate? ”
The Taoist Xu Hua pretended to be angry.
Yao Yuan laughed mischievously as he looked at his master awkwardly. After that, he instantly lowered his head and said in a small voice, “Actually, I came to bid my farewell to you the last time. It’s just that you were not here at that time, and I was rather anxious about my matters.
Afraid that the Taoist Xu Hua would not believe him, Yao Yuan quickly said, “This matter is true, Xiao Huan can testify for me!”
Taoist Xu Hua narrowed his eyes and said: “Alright, alright, I’ve already found out. After you left, Xiao Huan came back to discuss this matter.”
With that, Taoist Xu Hua’s figure moved, the surrounding environment immediately disappeared, and Yao Yuan once again stood in front of the small hut.
“This is …”
“Just now, it was all a trick. This small house is where I really live.”
Taoist Xu Hua glanced at Yao Yuan lightly and said with a smile.
Yao Yuan did not speak anymore. The realms of these experts were not something Yao Yuan could think of, whether it was in terms of technique or spiritual energy, they were all different levels.
“Come in, let me tell you about the Skills Competition.”
The Taoist Xu Hua brought Yao Yuan into his own room, and when they passed by the Reflection Chamber last time, Yao Yuan specifically took a look, and saw that the Reflection Chamber’s door was already tightly shut, as if someone inside was suffering from a punishment.
“Stop looking, it’s one of your seniors. He did something wrong and needs to be punished.”
Taoist Xu Hua also did not turn back as he said directly.
Yao Yuan followed him to Taoist Xu Hua’s room and immediately found a place to sit.
“Skills Competition s are a grand occasion hosted by the Cultivation Realm. Because every year’s venue is always at the Mount Li, it is known as the ‘Contract of Mount Li’. In this competition, every sect will send their most prized disciple over to attend.
“What are the benefits?”
Yao Yuan knew that this kind of competition required a lot of manpower and resources, for example, the prizes for the final champions.
The Taoist Xu Hua nodded his head and said: “That’s right, Skills Competition are split into two groups, Pond Fish, and Stream. Each group competition has the same content, but there are still differences in strength, and in the end, every group’s champion will have the chance to train in the Celestial Tower for a month.
Yao Yuan was a little confused. He had originally thought that he would get some material rewards, but he never would have thought that it would actually be these ethereal things.
“Master, what are these prizes?”
“Celestial Tower is the most sacred place for cultivation for every young person. In that place, the density of spirit energy is over a hundred times that of the outside world. The Mausoleum of Books is a place where the entire Cultivation Realm is made in common currency and is also a mineral that is stored with spirit energy.
When Taoist Xu Hua said this, his expression became different.
Yao Yuan could tell that the value of these things were definitely extraordinary.
“He’s that strong? How difficult is the competition going to be?”
Yao Yuan was very emotional.
“Originally, after you have defeated all the Golden Man in the Nine Palaces, I wanted to give you this chance, but who would have thought that you would actually leave at that time. Right now, our Pond Fish Stage only have three registration qualifications, and we don’t have your position anymore, so …”
Taoist Xu Hua wanted to say something but hesitated.
“I understand, I know what you mean.”
Yao Yuan looked at Taoist Xu Hua and said: “I just want to go and find my enemy, whether or not I participate has nothing to do with me anymore.”
Taoist Xu Hua smiled and said: “No, you don’t know, if you weren’t a participant of the competition, Mount Li would not have allowed you to come within a kilometer of it.”
Yao Yuan was startled, he stared at Taoist Xu Hua blankly: “There is such a rule?”
“How could ordinary things compare to the grand occasion of the Cultivation Realm? The rules of the Skills Competition are so strict that even I am unable to directly head to the competition grounds. If you want to do anything, you must participate in this competition. ”
Yao Yuan’s heart instantly became disheartened.
He had originally thought that this would be his last chance to deal with Chen Si, but who would have thought that the so called Pond Fish Skills Competition would actually have such a strange rule?
“Wait for the next time. Or, if something unexpected happens, you can also replace it.”
The Taoist Xu Hua seemed to be very confident in Yao Yuan’s ability.
“What about registering as an unspecialized character?”
Yao Yuan seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly asked.
The Taoist Xu Hua was not anxious, he slowly said: “Do you think you have the strength to challenge a group of people?”
