Chapter 79 Martial Spirit Showcase

As they entered, several people immediately recognized Long Tian. Three teenagers of his age approached him.

"Yo, brother Long Tian, long time no see," one of them greeted.

Long Tian readily recognized the teenager; he was Long Heng, his cousin. He smiled, "Yeah, it's been a while. How's your cultivation progress?" he inquired.

"Smooth sailing. Just a month ago, I achieved the Qi Foundation realm," Long Heng replied, his voice tinged with pride and accomplishment.

"Congratulations, then," Long Tian smiled, then his gaze shifted to the other teenagers. "You two must be from the Xia family, welcome to the Long family," he warmly welcomed them.

Both of them bowed respectfully. "It's truly an honor for us to participate in the Long family's annual event," one of them said, a smile on his face.

"Well, enjoy the facilities," Long Tian nodded.

"Anyway, brother, who is she?" Long Heng asked, gesturing towards Liu Qian.

Long Tian smiled, "She's my girlfriend," he replied, placing his hand on Liu Qian's hip.

Liu Qian also smiled, her cheeks tinged with a charming blush, yet her gaze remained steady and unwavering.

"Is that so? Well then, enjoy the party. We'll go somewhere else," Long Heng said and left with his two friends.

He was a bit disappointed. If Liu Qian wasn't Long Tian's girlfriend, he might have tried to get to know her. Besides, she was very beautiful, and it was somewhat rare to see a blonde girl.

As he left, Long Tian and Liu Qian made their way to the banquet area. Long Tian was greeted by several people who knew him, including his family members.

All the members of the Long family were present, and there were at least 300 high-status guests at the party.

He suddenly saw Xia Junsu approaching. "Hey kid, your charm isn't bad at all. You brought a beautiful girl with you," he said.

"Thanks, Uncle Junsu. And also thanks for earlier, those three black cards were quite useful," Long Tian responded, a smile featuring his face. Continue reading on No_veLbIn

"Hehe, consider it a small gift from me. Your mother told me that you awakened a dual martial spirit. But don't worry, I didn't tell anyone," he said.

"That's fine," Long Tian responded.

"Alright then, I'll catch up with some old friends," Xia Junsu said, patting Long Tian's shoulder before leaving.

As he departed, Long Tian and Liu Qian continued to explore the Long family's residence.

The Long family's grounds were vast, almost resembling a small city.

And at this moment, Long Tian's aunt, Xia Yunhai, and her husband approached him.

"Oh my, you said you wouldn't be in a romantic relationship. But what's this?" she asked, a playful smile on her face.

"It seems I've had a change of heart, Aunt Yun," Long Tian replied.

"Hehe, I had a feeling. But I can understand why you changed your mind. What's your name, dear?" Xia Yunhai asked, her smile warm as she gazed at Liu Qian.

"Liu Qian," she replied, returning the smile with grace.

"Hmph, we'll see whose martial spirit is stronger. One thing's for sure, after this, you won't be the family's genius anymore; it'll be me," Long Guan said with a grin.

Without waiting for Long Tian's reaction, he left.

Observing his departure, Long Tian regarded him with a cold gaze. In the original plot, Long Guan had played a role in the destruction of the Long family, even betraying his own kin.

Long Guan was the kind of person who would do anything to survive, and Long Tian had prepared a plan to deal with him.

Watching Long Guan leave, Liu Qian didn't hide her displeasure. "I don't like him. He's too arrogant," she expressed.

"Well, most young talents in the Long family are arrogant, including me. You just haven't seen it," Long Tian replied.

"Well, you're elegantly arrogant, I'll give you that," Liu Qian playfully responded.

Long Tian chuckled softly. He remembered his original self being very arrogant indeed, but since taking over this body, he rarely showed that side.

After a moment, a host, an elegantly dressed and beautiful woman, walked onto the stage without a ceiling.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the grand Long family's annual soirée," the emcee began, her voice dripping with elegance and charm.

"As we gather tonight, amidst the opulence and allure, we embark on a journey of extraordinary talent and endless possibilities," she continued, her words weaving an enchanting narrative.

"The Long family, renowned for its exceptional martial spirits and unwavering devotion to the path of martial excellence, proudly presents to you the rising stars of our lineage," she declared, her eyes gracefully sweeping across the captivated audience.

A hush of anticipation settled over the guests, each of them drawn into the mesmerizing atmosphere created by the emcee's words.

"The moment we've all been waiting for has arrived," the emcee announced with an infectious enthusiasm. "The martial spirit show-off is about to begin, where the prowess of our young talents will illuminate the night."

"Let's welcome the first participant: Long Yu!" she declared.

As her words hung in the air, the spotlight centered on the stage, and a young man, brimming with confidence, took his first steps toward the platform.

Long Yu reached the stage, and with a deep breath, he unleashed his martial spirit.

A giant dragon emerged behind him, its wings spread wide and its red eyes blazing in the darkness of the night.

The crowd watched in awe as it materialized, a magnificent manifestation of power and beauty, a testament to the Long family's unrivaled heritage.

Then, a text appeared on the large screen that had been prepared.

Martial spirit: Azure dragon

Class: A-Class

Soul power: 1123

Among the spectators, admiration rippled through many. An A-Class ranking and a soul power level exceeding 1000 were truly remarkable achievements. However, among the members of the Long family themselves, this score was considered ordinary; there was nothing awe-inspiring about it.

With a Mythical-type martial spirit, it wasn't surprising that his soul power exceeded 1000.

"Wow, truly remarkable. An Azure Dragon martial spirit! Let's give a round of applause for Long Yu!" the emcee exclaimed.

With that, applause resonated through the beautiful night.

Long Yu stepped down from the stage, his expression composed. He hadn't expected much from his martial spirit. He was well aware that his martial spirit was standard, with many others much stronger.

"All right, let's move on to the next contender. Long Guan, please take the stage."
