Chapter 136

On D-day, the Outstanding Talent Competition was held at the peak of the Southern Mountain.

Southern Mountain was a vast mountain with a plateau at its peak. It was hard to imagine how a mountain this size was located within a city, and this showed how large Southern Ping was.

Competitions were always held at the thousand-metre-wide plateau at the mountains peak.

The space wasnt as packed as it usually was since this Outstanding Talent Competition was arranged quickly; they didnt have any time to promote it. The important figures of Southern Ping and many members of the five clans were there to spectate, but few outsiders were present.

Amongst the outsiders were two inconspicuous youths. One of them was simply dressed, with a fan at his waist. If a skilled tailor was there, he would notice that the robe was made of snow silkworm silk, a textile that automatically adjusted to the temperature for the wearers comfort. In short, the textile would become cooler in summer and warmer in winter. Moreover, it was also a protective garment which ordinary weapons couldnt penetrate.

The silk itself was priceless, but it still cost less than employing a tailor able to make a robe out of it. One had to be at least a great master to do so. In this world, even tailors were graded, and the person who brought the career to recognition was none other than the well-known Imperial Sunset Palaces Imperial Empress, Man Chin Hung. Besides being a thousand-gliphic gliphist, she was also a divine tailor.

The youth was definitely no ordinary person to wear such an extravagant robe. nove(l)bi(n.)com

Behind him was another youth following him silently. In contrast, the youth wore a black robe and moved quietly. He was so unnoticeable that others would assume he was a shadow if they didnt pay attention.

The duo watched from within the crowd.

The thought of an angry Ping Chi made Ping Cheng Sau cough as he kept silent, pretending that he didnt hear Ping Man Bun.

Chui Yim heard him as well, but Ping Man Bun felt like a little boy to him. Why should he argue with a kid? But next to him, Ping Ching answered seriously, Brother Chui is Master Ping Chis direct disciple, while my father and I are just his normal disciples. As such, he is our senior brother. So? Does brother Chui have a right to stand here?

Ping Man Buns face fell as he heard Ping Ching, staring at Chui Yim angrily and enviously. Whether it was about Ping Chi being his master, Ping Cheng Saus attitude, or Ping Ching siding with Chui Yim, Ping Man Bun was jealous of it all as his hatred of Chui Yim increased.

However, Chui Yim didnt even spare him a glance as he looked around. His eyes met the white-robed youth who was looking at him. Feeling an odd affinity, Chui Yim flashed a smile, and the youth smiled back at him.

The youth felt that the bald boy was interesting, but who was he compared to himself? Thus, he looked away the next second.

Dong!

A bell rang across the entire Southern Mountain. The bell signalled the start of the competition.

At the same time, a white-robed figure appeared on the platform. Ping San Yat frowned while Suen Ho, the Suen Clans Clan Leader, spoke sarcastically.

Clan Leader Mo-Yung is so mighty that all four other clan leaders of Southern Ping have to wait for you. Did you lose your common sense after becoming a Divine Doctor?
