Translator: 549690339
It must be said that Yang Wu, as one of the top talents in the Yang family, had already faintly shown a trend towards being the number one genius of the family. As soon as he appeared, he immediately attracted the attention of everyone. Many young ladies from other families who planned to hook up with Yang Wu started to scream in excitement when they saw him.
This was a very normal thing. In the entire continent, martial arts were respected above all else.
Only through Martial Arts could one survive through the ages.
As long as one’s Martial Arts Cultivation and talent were high, it would naturally cause countless women to scream.
Yang Wu enjoyed this feeling very much.
In these two months, his cultivation level had progressed even further, reaching the latter stage of the Body Refining Realm Fourth Layer from the mid-stage. He had confidence in winning the championship in this Coming of
Age Ceremony.
“Yang Wu! ”
Upon hearing his name called, Yang Wu stepped out with his head held high and an aura of confidence.
“Yang Wu, he’s the symbol of the young generation of our Yang family.” “If my son could be this outstanding, I, as a father, would feel relieved even in death. ”
“Yang Wu is indeed powerful, ignoring the 1000 catties stone.”
“Yang Wu has set his target at 1100 catties!”
Having reached the Body Refinement Realm Fourth Layer Latter Stage, Yang
Wu already had the strength to lift a 1200 jins boulder. But compared to that, 1200 jins were more difficult, so Yang Wu thought about it and set his target at 1100 catties instead.
“Even if it’s just a 1100 catties boulder, no one should be able to surpass me.” Yang Wu raised the corners of his mouth and revealed his confident smile.
Among the Yang family, he was not the only one who had reached the Body Refining Realm Fourth Layer. However, those who had reached that level were mostly at the mid-stage of the Fourth Layer. There was no one who had reached the later stage like him.
With that in mind, Yang Wu trembled all over. The next moment, he firmly embraced the boulder with both hands and lifted it over his head with great force.
“Yang Wu raised the 1100 catties boulder so effortlessly, it seems he still has some strength left. Otherwise, lifting a 1100 catties boulder wouldn’t be so easy. It’s even more difficult to do so without turning red and out of breath like Yang
“Yang Wu didn’t use all his strength, maybe he’s leaving something for the Championship. This young man’s future is limitless; he will certainly achieve great things!”
Many foreign races gave high praise to Yang Wu.
As for the young girls who admired Yang Wu, their screams kept coming, especially Yu family’s young lady who was going to marry Yang Wu. She felt like her heart was blossoming all of sudden and she couldn’t help but want to jump up.
Yang Jin He’s old servant also nodded his head in satisfaction and said gently, “Yang Wu, 1100 catties, Mid-stage of Body Refining Realm Fourth Layer!”
Since Yang Wu held back some of his strength, he was announced as being at the mid-stage of the Body Refining Realm Fourth Layer.
Actually, many of the young disciples present also held back some of their strength.
“Next up…” The old servant took a glance.
It was a coincidence, or perhaps not, that right after Yang Wu came Yang Chen.
“Yang Chen!”
Yang Chen felt a little surprised when he heard his name called.
He shrugged, gave Yang Wu a light glance.
Yang Wu, who was enjoying the adoration of the crowd, recalled his unpleasant experiences with Yang Chen as he saw him and said coldly, “Yang Chen, it seems your luck isn’t so good, being ranked right after me. I wonder how much you can accomplish compared to me, oh, I’m sorry, I forgot, you seem to have no martial arts cultivation! Saying you could reach a certain percentage of my level seems to be overestimating you.”
Hearing Yang Wu’s words, Yang Chen rubbed his ears: “Did you just say I have bad luck?”
“Do you think your luck is good?” Yang Wu shouted harshly.
Yang Chen gave a casual smile, not bothering with any further comment with Yang Wu. Since he was called, he slowly stepped forward.
Seeing Yang Chen stepping forward, Elder Yang, who was in the same loft as Yang Jin He, suddenly stood up.
“Wait!” Elder Yang shouted.
This immediately made Yang Jin He ask with surprise, “Elder, what do you mean?”
All the people present also focused their attention on Elder Yang.
“What’s going on?”
“Why did Elder suddenly stand up?”
Because of Elder Yang’s shout, the assessment had to be paused.
Elder Yang said respectfully, “Clan Leader, I request that Yang Chen’s assessment be stopped.”
Yang Jinhe’s face gradually became awkward: “Elder, I want to know, what do you mean by this?”
Elder Yang knew that today’s request would be somewhat difficult for Yang Jin He to accept, as after all, Yang Jin He was still receiving honorable guests.
However, Yang Chen was an Alchemy Genius he especially favored. If Yang Chen were somehow eliminated from the family registry, it would be much more troublesome to salvage the situation later.
So, after thinking it over, he decided to speak up for Yang Chen.
In his heart, he still didn’t think Yang Chen could pass the examination today.
With that thought, Elder Yang took a deep breath: “Clan Leader, everyone knows that Yang Chen can’t cultivate martial arts. He does have some talent in alchemy, so I would like him to follow me in the future to learn alchemy. Can we just forgo the Coming of Age Ceremony for him?”
“Nonsense!” Yang Jin He shouted angrily, his face cold as frost.
It it were any other time, he wouldn’t mind giving Elder Yang some face.
But today was different. Li Youyan was sitting there, he couldn’t let the outsiders laugh at his family members. After all, if they couldn’t pass the examination, they would be expelled from the household registration, which was an order he had personally issued. If he agreed to Elder Yang today, wouldn’t it be like lifting a rock and hitting his own foot?
Elder Yang was rejected, and his expression also became difficult to look at.
“Elder, it’s your fault. How can you let personal feelings interfere with the sacred ritual of the Coming of Age Ceremony?” A sarcastic voice sounded, deliberately raising his volume so that everyone under the loft could hear clearly.
He was a middle-aged man, known as Eighth Master Yang, the Eighth Elder of Yang family who was Elder Yang’s old rival. Seeing Elder Yang being embarrassed, he didn’t hesitate to stand up and add fuel to the fire.
With his shout, everyone now Imew about Yang Chen’s situation.
“There are people who actually want to dodge the Coming of Age Ceremony through connections?”
“My God, this kind of thing could actually happen at the Yang family’s Coming of Age Ceremony?”
“If it were anyone else, it would be weird, but you guys don’t know Yang Chen? He’s a rare genius in Alchemy but an absolute waste in the Yang family, failing in both martial arts and alchemy. I heard that when he competed with the Wang family, he failed to refine a single elixir despite having a large number of precious materials.”
“He probably knew he couldn’t pass the Coming of Age Ceremony and secretly gave Elder Yang some gifts, that’s why Elder Yang tried to speak for him.”
Many of the foreign races gathered around, whispering and watching the excitement, as this was a rare event..
