It wasn’t until Ying Wu left the scene that others felt a sense of ease in the atmosphere.

“So oppressive!”

“Yes, even though he’s also a Nine-Tribulation God Spirit, Ying Wu is clearly stronger...”

At this point, only four Nine-Tribulation God Spirit powerhouses remained in the periphery.

Along with the green-haired man who had been taken out earlier, they were all members of the same team.

They had previously sent men to hunt down those who held the invitation letter, which included these five people.

The more powerful Nine-Tribulation God Spirits like Ying Wu would not stoop to such actions.

Those remaining four Nine-Tribulation God Spirits, due to their comrade’s loss of face, quickly moved towards the center position as well.

Watching their departing figures, Long Aotian sneered and muttered, “They’re just a few years older than us, if I was as old as them, I would definitely have been stronger...”

“Haha, a frog in a well!”

A disdainful voice suddenly sounded.

“Who?!”

Long Aotian immediately looked angry and started looking around in fury.

At this moment, a path was cleared in the crowd, and a youth in blue brocade, fanning a folding fan, slowly strolled out.

Looking at the man before him, Long Aotian furrowed his brow and asked, “Who are you?”

The brocade youth’s lips curled up slightly, and he smiled, “I am Wei Dong!”

“Wei Dong?”

Everyone was momentarily taken aback, looking at each other, none of them were familiar with this name.

Seeing the crowd’s reaction, Long Aotian started to laugh. His nostrils flared in scorn as he mocked, “I thought we had someone interesting here, turns out you’re a nobody. What right do you have to ridicule me?!”

He thought it was some powerful figure, but it seemed like this guy was just a novice like him.

Du Gang noticed that Yao Zijie’s brow was slightly furrowed, as though he was recalling something. He asked him in a soft voice, “Do you know him?”

Yao Zijie turned to look at Du Gang and slightly nodded, then spoke, “Wei Dong is a common name, but few who meet the criteria would be young and within the God Spirit Realm. I do, however, know of someone who perfectly fits these criteria...”

Yao Zijie’s voice was low, but everyone present was a powerhouse with extraordinary hearing, and they all turned to look at him.

It wasn’t just them, Wei Dong himself was also looking at Yao Zijie with interest, as though he didn’t believe Yao Zijie knew about him.

Yao Zijie continued slowly, “In Southern Kang State, there was a family that was once ranked among the royal families, enjoying temporary glory. However, due to their involvement in a horrific incident, they were cursed which led to the downfall of the entire family...”

“This happened quite a while ago. This family is almost nameless now, their clan members are reduced to a few, and they are on the verge of extinction...”

“In recent years, this family hasn’t even been able to produce a single True God...”

As he said this, Yao Zijie glanced at Wei Dong. Seeing that Wei Dong remained silent, he continued, “Within this family, there was a young man named Wei Dong who, in order to resist the attack from the curse, slaughtered the remaining members of their clan...”

“What?!”

Everyone was shocked, and turned to look at Wei Dong as if asking, is this really you?

At this moment, Wei Dong showed a ghastly expression, with the right half of his face remaining unchanged, while a smile surfaced on the left half.

“If I had not acted, they would have died eventually. What I did has prolonged the family’s existence...”

It’s really him indeed!

Everyone was shocked!

They couldn’t believe that Wei Dong would actually admit to it so readily!Thê source of this content n/o/v/(el)bi((n))

Wei Dong said with a smirk, “Death is both an end and a beginning. Only by wiping out the Wei Family first can it be rebuilt and rise again!”

“And I will lead the Wei Family, bringing back the glory days, and guide the family to the pinnacle...”

Someone frowned and asked, “If you have a family to rebuild, why aren’t you recruiting and training new members instead of coming here?”

Wei Dong laughed evilly, “Don’t you all think that Yan Ruyu is perfect to be the female leader of the Wei Family?”

“You audacious brat!”

“You shameless scum...”

Immediately, curses started flying all over the place.

The people here came mainly for Yan Ruyu, but they all spoke indirectly, avoiding direct confrontations. Who would have thought this guy would announce his intentions to make Yan Ruyu his bride so openly.

“Wei Dong, what is your cultivation level? Today, I want to teach you a lesson, show you the cruelty of this world. You’re still naive...”

“Haha!”

Wei Dong glanced at everyone in disregard, and said with a smirk, “I’m a First Tribulation God Spirit, any objections?”

From his words, they inferred that he must have some powerful technique, something capable of a desperate fight.

He is...

Suddenly, everyone realized something odd about him.

“Long Aotian, the youngest member of the Dragon Family in the Ancient City, not only is he their most outstanding youth, but he also has a father who is a Celestial God...”

“Little Hawk King, the youngest member of the Ying family in the Ancient City, and he also has a father who is a Celestial God...”

With everyone’s analysis, the backgrounds of Long Aotian and his crew were laid bare.

Everyone has those they know and those they don’t.

However, it was certain that there were very few people like them who were direct descendants of Celestial Gods.

When everyone finished explaining the backgrounds of Long Aotian and his gang, they were surprised to realize that none of them were simple; each one had a Celestial God in their corner.

Meanwhile, Du Gang was not mentioned at all.

This was simply because the name of the Ancient Gods had not been seen on the continent for so long that many people had forgotten about their existence.

The Ancient God’s last rise to prominence was a billion years ago. Most people present were born within the last million years. Many hadn’t even heard of the term ‘Ancient God’.

Even those who had heard of it only knew about them from history books and didn’t know many details.

Wei Dong was annoyed to see that the children of the Ancient City were stealing his thunder. He said coldly: “The people of the Ancient City are here in large numbers, and they are all well-known, but when it comes to courage, they are lacking!”

“Long Aotian, you’re quite arrogant, right? You and I are both in the First Tribulation, so how about a fight?”

Upon hearing this, Long Aotian immediately became furious, “If you want to fight, let’s fight. Who says I’m scared?”

Little Hawk King tried to stop him again, but this time, Long Aotian pushed his hand away, saying earnestly: “Ying Ba, don’t stop me this time. He has openly challenged me. If I don’t fight, how will people perceive me?”

At this point, Du Gang also stood up and spoke: “Ying Ba, let him fight.”

Seeing both of them insist, Little Hawk King no longer tried to stop them. Indeed, when someone challenged you publicly, if you didn’t fight, it would have a devastating blow to your reputation.

He nodded pensively, “Be careful, if you can’t hold on, surrender!!”

“Don’t worry, at the stage of the God Spirit Realm’s First Tribulation, I’m not scared of anyone!”

Filled with confidence, Long Aotian spoke while walking towards the center of the arena.

Everyone knew to step back and make room for the duel.

“Very well!”

Wei Dong nodded with a smile, “Long Aotian, huh? The name is quite domineering, but today, you are destined to be just a supporting act.”

“I, Wei Dong, will surely become famous. You, Long Aotian, will be my first stepping stone!”

“Hmph!”

Long Aotian snorted coldly, “If you want to use me as a stepping stone, you better be hard enough. Be careful not to break your own egg.”

“Come on!”

The moment Wei Dong saw him in position, he made his move without hesitation.

In his world, there was no such thing as courtesy.

He raised his hand, and a sword Qi shot out.

“An attack strength of five hundred Naer!”

“Trivial skill!”

At this moment, Long Aotian didn’t look surprised. He instantly unleashed a Divine Power technique of almost five hundred Naer.

But in his heart, he was actually in a tough spot.

His understanding of his technique was only at 2 percent, which by conventional standards should only have allowed him to burst forth with 200 Naer of Divine Power.

But right now, he had forcefully used twice his usual strength to block his opponent’s attack.

‘Damn, I may lose this one!’

Long Aotian had a clear moment of realization, he was likely to lose the battle...

‘Should I use my ace in the hole?’

He asked himself, ultimately shaking his head.

Not worth it!

He and Wei Dong had no grudges against each other. Using his ultimate technique would be a waste!

His so-called strongest technique was essentially a lifesaving trick left to him by his father. It was not to be used unless his life was in danger.

Sigh!

Long Aotian sighed, realizing he had no chance of winning.

In any case, he figured he would put up a fight for a few more rounds. He should at least avoid losing too disgracefully...
