Mystical Dominator of the Nine Heavens - Chapter 53
“It’s fine, Qinggang.” Xu Qinglu walked out of the pergola at the northside and said, “Qingliu is just concerned about his son. Qingliu, you may transfer the duty as the host of the tournament to Qinggang. Zhengming’s injuries are quite serious. You may bring him to get treated.”
Xu Qingliu was given a chance to leave. He nodded to show agreement and glared at Xu Yang hatefully. He jumped off the platform and held Xu Zhengming in his arms.
Xu Yang became calm once again after knocking down Xu Zhengming. The power that he had exuded previously suddenly disappeared, and the Mystical Power around his body could no longer be seen. He stood there like an ordinary teenager in the Mystical Learner stage.
However, no one would be that stupid to think that Xu Yang was a Mystical Learner. Everyone now knew that Xu Yang had formed his Mystical Core and that he was a real Mystical Warrior from the violent outburst just a moment ago.
‘He has cultivated a Mystical Technique that can hide his aura.’ Xu Zhengxin’s doubts were cleared.
“Xu Yang won the first match of the Grand Family Tournament.” Xu Qinggang was a straight-to-the-point kind of person. He immediately announced the result after the duty as the host was passed on to him. “The second match, Divine No.2, Xu Zhenyuan and Earth No.2, Xu Zhengzha.”
Xu Yang did not think that he could learn anything from a battle between two Mystical Learners. He was not bothered about the battle and he jumped down from the ring. He then saw Xu Yu skipping toward him, and pouncing into his embrace. She cheerfully said, “Brother, you were amazing!”
Xu Yang smiled and caressed Xu Yu’s head. Chubby Ball struggled out of Xu Yu’s arms and quickly climbed onto Xu Yang’s shoulder.
Ever since Chubby Ball was taken home by Xu Yang, it had always been Xu Yu who fed it, and Xu Yang rarely cared about it. However, Chubby Ball was particularly intimate with Xu Yang. This intimacy had made Xu Yu envious more than once.
“Where are we going now, Brother?” Xu Yu’s hand was held by Xu Yang as she asked.
“With the number of people waiting, my second match won’t be that soon. I might need to wait for about two hours.” Xu Yang answered. “The matches between these people are not that fascinating. Let’s go to the middle of the courtyard.”
“Stop, Xu Yang.” An arrogant voice sounded behind him.
Xu Yang turned his head and saw a tall teenager with fair complexion staring at him.
“What do you want?” Xu Yang asked indifferently.
“I should introduce myself. I’m Xu Zhengchun.” The pale teenager’s eyes were cold. “Xu Yang, I have underestimated you. I didn’t expect you to have advanced into the Mystical Warrior stage, and be able to conceal your true cultivation.”
Xu Zhengchun? Xu Yang had heard about this person before. It was said that he was an outstanding youngster in Lin Yuan City’s Xu family. He was as well-known as the manor master’s grandson, Xu Zhengxin. They were known as the Xu family’s future.
However, it was none of Xu Yang’s business. Xu Yang frowned when he heard the words laced with irony.
“Although you have defeated Zhengming, you are not without any weakness.” Xu Zhengchun said. “It is true that your physical strength is strong but your cultivation of Mystical Power is too shallow as you have just entered the Mystical Warrior stage. You won’t be able to fight with me if you were not given a chance at melee combat, based purely on Mystical Techniques.”
“Victory and defeat are not decided by words alone.” Xu Yang said.
Xu Zhengchun was furious. He did not expect the trash, Xu Yang, to diss him in return when he had lowered his status to speak with him. Xu Yang even showed his contempt toward him.
Unforgivable!
“Good, this is great.” Xu Zhengchun was so mad to the point where he laughed in response. “I hope you can persevere with this attitude of yours. I will let you know the difference between a true genius and trash. I can guarantee that your ending will be ten times worse than that of Zhengming’s.”
“What is your number?” Xu Yang asked.
“Divine No.5.” Xu Zhengchun flashed his wooden plate and snickered proudly. “After three matches, we shall meet on the ring.”
“You don’t need to wait for so long.” Xu Yang looked around and asked loudly, “Who’s Earth No.5?”
A youngster with dark complexion nearby raised his wooden plate and said, “I, I am.”
“I am giving you a choice to change your Earth No.5 plate with my Earth No.1 plate.” Xu Yang waved his wooden plate and said, “Are you willing to exchange with me?”
The youngster was surprised by this luck of his. He was stunned and said, “I will exchange with you!”
The dark-skinned teenager was initially shocked when he got Earth No.5. His first match’s opponent would be Xu Zhengchun who was Divine No.5, and he would have no chance in winning.
Earth No.1, Xu Yang, had already won the first match, and he wanted to exchange the Earth No.5 wooden plate in his hands. It meant that he did not need to go through the first round’s match, and he could directly enter the second round! The most important thing was that he did not have to face the extremely strong Xu Zhengchun.
Each round of the Grand Family Tournament of the Xu family had a lot of rewards such as Mystical Stones, Spirit Elixirs, Mystical Scriptures, Spirit Treasures, and others. The dark-skinned youngster was afraid that Xu Yang would regret his decision, he quickly dashed forward and put the Earth No.5 plate in Xu Yang’s hand.
Xu Yang smiled and gave him the Earth No.1 plate.
Xu Qinggang, on the platform, saw the exchange clearly but he did not say anything. He had apparently acquiesced to Xu Yang’s behaviour of violating the rules.
Xu Zhengchun saw Xu Yang’s action of exchanging for the Earth No.5 wooden plate. His pale face turned purple because of his anger.
This was an obvious act of contempt toward him!
“Trash, dumbass! You have successfully angered me!” Xu Zhengchun gritted his teeth and scolded, “I swear that I will make you pay for it!”
“He is so terrifying…” Xu Yu pulled at Xu Yang’s arm and her small figure cowered in fear. She hid behind Xu Yang and said timidly.
Xu Yang caressed his sister’s head and comforted her. His pair of beautiful black eyes stared at Xu Zhengchun.
“Now, you have also angered me.” Xu Yang said the words one by one. Chubby Ball on his shoulder gritted its teeth and made a threatening grunting sound. However, its chubby body and short legs did not exude much of a threatening aura.
The surrounding Xu family’s youngsters instantly started to spread the news.
“Do you know that Xu Yang has exchanged his number plate?”
“Exchanging plates? Isn’t he violating the rules? Why is Uncle Qinggang not doing anything about it? ”
“Why would he do anything? Do you know what plate Xu Yang has exchanged for? It is Earth No.5!”
“What?”
There were exclamations that showed the feelings of disbelief that sounded everywhere in the gymnasium. The other people were very concerned about the number plates of the two geniuses in the Intermediate Mystical Warrior stage, Xu Zhengxin and Xu Zhengchun.
Everyone knew that Xu Zhengxin was Divine No.9, and Xu Zhengchun was Divine No.5. Xu Yang took the initiative to exchange for the plate Earth No.5. What did this mean? It meant that Xu Yang was challenging Xu Zhengchun!
The youngsters of the Xu family had lost a lot of interest in the next three matches. Their attention was focused on the fifth match which was the match between Xu Zhengchun and Xu Yang.
“One is a genius in the Mystical Warrior stage and the other is the strong one who defeated Xu Zhengming. Who will win?”
“I think Xu Zhengchun will win. He has formed his Mystical Core a year and a half ago! It is a fact that he has an accumulation of a year and a half more than Xu Yang.”
“Xu Yang is also good. He defeated Xu Zhengming whose cultivation is in the Primary Mystical Warrior stage with one punch. His combat power should not be much worse than that of Xu Zhengchun’s.”
“It should be a fascinating battle. We’re in for a good show!”
The atmosphere had been livened up before the battle between Xu Yang and Xu Zhengchun started. Xu Yang’s nickname ‘trash’ was no longer mentioned.
