Celestial Overlord - Chapter 97 Competition begins.

“Each and everyone of you! who has traveled thousands of miles just to witness the epic war of youth! I welcome you all!” the Old Patriarch of Black thunder sect addressed the crowd. The crowd roared.

“Look! That’s the Patriarch of Black Thunder sect, he is a legendary figure!” someone in the crowd shouted.

“As I don’t want to delay any further! We will commence the competition after the arrival of our Emperor Taing Rou!” he announced. Everyone one present in the arena stood up on seeing their Emperor. A man who was powerful enough to rule them all.

An Old man came walking as he stared at the crowd. No one dared to make eyes contact with him, he was a true monarch in their eyes. Both his wife followed him, as they sat beside him. The Nobles and other important figures came by.

The arena had a capacity of holding hundred thousand people. Special stage were prepared for the participant. And a gallery was made for the Emperor to view the competition.

The Black Thunder sect’s patriarch was using his domineering voice to catch the crowd attention.

“And now! There has been a important change in the competition, the event which was meant to be at last will be held today” hearing this the crowd were puzzled. Looking at the dumbfounded crowd the old Patriarch laughed.

“The martial arts competition will commence today!” he yelled out in a roaring voice. The crowd went crazy when the heard this. Not everyone here were interested in alchemy and formation. But everyone enjoyed the martial arts fight.

It makes their blood boil while seeing the youngsters fight for glory. The glory that decides who is the strongest among their generation. “Woaaaah” the loud yelling of crowd covered the whole arena.

“Now! Let me welcome the disciples of the sects who are going to fight for this glory!” he announced all the sects name other than Devil sect.

Each and every sect’s disciple came along with their Elder and Patriarch. A separate place was there for them in the arena.

“Hey look! It’s the second Prince! How charming!” some of the girls shouted looking at the second Prince.

“Marry me! My Prince!” some girl shouted looking at the second Prince.

“Our beauty goddess! The Third Princess is here too!” some of the fan boys shouted. “What beauty goddess? Look there its our true beauty, Goddess Leifen!” some of the opposing fan boys shouted. Creating a tense atmosphere.

“To think! We will be witnessing all this future legends fight today! I can die without regret” another one shouted.

“And next! The clans that have been the pride of Taing country! The Lee clan, Ling clan, Hon clan and Yang clan came and sat in their respective place.

The Emperor and Divine Dragon sect’s head scanned the Lee clan.when they saw that Tian Lee was not present, they breathed a sigh of relief. The Purple sect’s Patriarch and Elder Fei showed a saddened expression. Even Prince Gin and his group felt sad on not finding Tian Lee there.

“As everyone of them has arrived! We will not delay anymore! There are five stages and each stage will hold a competition for hundred students! After the slot are taken the student will be assigned to their stages; Let the competition begin!” the old Patriarch shouted.

Just as they disciples went to pick up the slot a commotion raised in the entrance. “Sorry! But we can’t allow people anymore!” one of the guard said looking at the mortal young man who was standing there along with a group.

“Hahaha! I just overslept! Just excuse us this once!” the young man said while laughing. The answer even grasped the attention of the crowd.

“Hey who is that?” someone asked in the crowd. “Hmm! How do I know! I never saw him before!” another replied.

“Hey! That is Lee clan’s mortal young master” some one shouted.

Hearing this the Emperor and Divine Dragon sect’s head trembled. Old Lee and Madam Lee were dumbstruck.

Just they all were dazed. Black Thunder sect’s Patriarch voice resounded. “Young man! I appreciate your enthusiasm! But rules are rules, after the competition commences, no one is allowed inside!” he said looking at the mortal young man.

“What do you think? You are some kind of Emperor or what! You are just a mortal, behave like that!” he thought.

But the crowd were surprised, when they heard their Emperor voice. “Allow h-him!” his voice was shaky and trembling. The domineering voice of the Emperor was no where to be found. The guards did not say anything further. But Black Thunder sect’s Patruarch frowned.

“What is so special about this mortal!” question raised for many. But none spoke. As Tian Lee entered he started walking towards the Lee clan seat.

The Emperor was looking at Tian Lee from the upper stage. Just as he was thinking, what is going to happen?. He saw the ones following behind Tian Lee.

“The Old Demon king!” his eyes went wide while looking at the old man who was following Tian Lee like a servant. And when he saw the next person, his mouth was nearly hitting the ground.

“The Magical Beast King!”he mumbled in shock. The kings that were on the same stage as him. They both were a important figure in the mortal world.

” what kind of line up is this?” he thought. But the commotion was over soon, as all the people were eagerly waiting for the competition.

“He really came!” Yu Ling thought as she stared at him.

Leifen was left dumbstruck. “He is the one that sister Ling was engaged too! So he is the Lee clan Young master”.

But only Mo Lee knew, “He is just here for entertainment!” she mumbled. It was the same after all. Whenever there was a clan competition. Tian Lee would always be there too see it, but unlike the cheerful audience who would be roaring and shouting . He will just sit and watch as if it was a play while eating something.
