Chapter 1356

As Gu Ding and the others expected, the head of the Qian family had a similar build to Qian Duoduo.

He was much taller than Qian Duoduo. He was about two meters tall and had a full white beard. However, there were no wrinkles on his face. Gu Ding wondered if it was because he was fat. He looked like an enlarged version of Qian Duoduo. It was obvious that Qian Duoduo was the biological son of the Qian family.

His speech was short but domineering.

"I hope everyone will strive to achieve good results in this championship. Those who can enter the top hundred will be rewarded. The higher the ranking, the better the reward! Everything depends on the ranking! There will be no difference between the young people of the Qian family and the young people who are hired. All the rewards you get in the championship will belong to you. The Qian family will not take a single cent from you. Moreover, the rewards from the Qian family will only be more generous than the rewards from the championship! "

To sum it up, the Qian family only wanted a good ranking! We don't lack money!

The words of the head of the Qian family excited many of the people who were hired.

Gu Ding and the others sighed to themselves. "How rich and imposing!"

Qian Duoduo noticed the strange expressions on Gu Ding and the others and explained with a smile.

"The Qian family is not a family that started with cultivation. The strength of our bloodline is weaker than other families. That's why we hire more foreign aid. Basically, half of our people are foreign aid. The other families know this, especially the top twelve families. A few of them used to look down on our family and often say that we are not strong. As for their comments, our Patriarch would throw money at them until the rankings were higher than theirs, making them completely speechless! "

"Being rich is also a form of strength …" Gu Ding could not help but sigh.

After leaving the Qian family's reception hall, the one thousand contestants of the Qian family were transported to the competition square.

As the head of the Qian family's speech was short, the group of people from the Qian family arrived early. There were only twenty to thirty people in the competition square. They seemed to be from a few small families.

When they saw the Qian Clan's people appear, they all revealed envious expressions. Some of them even whispered to each other.

"It's the Qian family!"

"I heard that the Qian family brought half of the top one thousand powerhouses on the Transcendent Leaderboard!"

"Yeah, they even invited Di Lingtian, who is ranked second on the Transcendent Leaderboard!"

"There's no way to compete in this exchange competition …"

"Di Lingtian didn't represent his family in the competition?" Gu Ding could not help but ask Qian Duoduo.

He blurted out this sentence without using telepathy. Someone heard him and turned to look at him. One of the white-robed swordsmen glanced at Gu Ding. Feeling the gaze, Gu Ding also looked at the other party and instantly confirmed the other party's identity — Di Lingtian. Although he had never seen Di Ling Tian before, he had only heard of his name.

The moment their eyes met, Di Lingtian's pupils shrank slightly. He could feel that Gu Ding was very strong, almost a powerhouse of the same level as him. This was a connection between experts, and it had nothing to do with cultivation. Surprised, he quickly retracted his gaze.

Noticing that Di Lingtian was looking over, Qian Duoduo felt pressured to the point he gulped down a mouthful of saliva. Seeing that Di Lingtian only glanced at him indifferently before retracting his gaze, Qian Duoduo opened his mouth to explain. "The family clan that Di Ling Tian is in is a branch of the Di Family and can't be listed in the aristocratic families, so they don't have the quota to take part in the competition. In reality, it wasn't just the Di Family. All of the Di Family's branches didn't have the right to participate. If their family members want to participate in the aristocratic family exchange competition, they can only do so in the form of employment. "

After saying that, Qian Duoduo added, "The guy who just looked at us is Di Lingtian!"

"He's very strong!" Gu Ding nodded with a serious look in his eyes.

Although they were both swordsmen, Gu Ding could clearly feel that Di Lingtian was much stronger than Phaser. He even suspected that Di Lingtian might have mastered a trace of Tao Rune.

Other than Di Lingtian, Gu Ding quickly noticed other powerhouses in the Qian family's team. He vaguely felt the evolution of god sequence chains. There were seven powerhouses who had broken through to Level 3. At this level, there would be a weak resonance between god sequence chains, but only powerhouses like Gu Ding and Di Lingtian, who were close to touching Level 4 evolution, could sense this resonance.

Although Gu Ding only had four god sequence chains that had evolved to Level 3, two of his god sequence chains had already perfected Level 3. He had even sensed Tao Runes a few times, but he was not strong enough to grasp them.

On the square, the other aristocratic families arrived at the scene one after another.

Qian Duoduo introduced Gu Ding and the others one by one.

"Over there is the Robb family, the family that caused the Hester incident some time ago. The one in light blue clothes with an unapproachable expression is the Robb family's number one demon in recent years — Bandit, who is ranked ninth on the Transcendent Leaderboard. He's Hester's twin brother, although they look completely different. "

"Although Bandit is ranked ninth on the Transcendent Leaderboard, according to our family's insider information, his strength should be stronger than his ranking. He can at least make it to the top five of the Transcendent Leaderboard!"

"Over there is the Eichner family. They are the only family among the Twelve Top Aristocratic Families that is passed down through their mother's bloodline. All the members of the family follow their mother's surname. If a man from another family marries a woman from their family, he has to change his surname to Eichner. "

"The strongest demon in their family's younger generation is also a woman. Her name is Minerva, and she is ranked seventh on the Transcendent Leaderboard. Minerva also has a younger brother called Myron. When the Transcendent Leaderboard was updated a few years ago, his cultivation was only an eight-star lord, and he was ranked ninety-eight. However, he hasn't fought in recent years, so it stands to reason that his ranking should be higher. "

While Qian Duoduo was introducing them, Gu Ding's gaze fell on a young man from the Eichner family. He felt a faint sense of danger from that man. Gu Ding knew that this guy was probably Myron. He was much stronger than what Qian Duoduo had said, and could almost compete with Di Lingtian.

Sensing Gu Ding's gaze, he looked in Gu Ding's direction. When he saw Gu Ding, he was slightly surprised. It was only a moment of eye contact before the two of them looked away.

"Over there is the Delo family. In ancient times, their ancestor became a True King with the Water Elemental Path, then completed the Elemental Path and became a Venerable Emperor. However, the irony is that in the last few hundred eras, the most outstanding descendants did not cultivate the Elemental Path. The strongest demon in their family's younger generation is said to be born with an Elemental Body. His name is Valentin, and he's the guy standing there in a daze. However, he doesn't have any battle records, and he's not even ranked on the Transcendent Leaderboard. I guess the Delo family is just bragging about being born with an Elemental Body. "

Gu Ding also noticed the young man. He looked like he was only sixteen or seventeen years old. He looked like a young man, but Gu Ding also felt a strong aura from him.

"Over there is the Delphi family …"

"Over there is the Romulu family …"

…

Before Qian Duoduo could finish introducing the twelve top families, there was a sudden commotion in the crowd.

Gu Ding heard someone exclaim, "The Emperor family is here!"

Almost everyone looked in the direction of the newcomer …
