Return: The Dragon Legend

Ch. 61. Towards the Capital

Seven more days of the Young Shoot Tournament will soon be in the title in the Capital City, the Moon Sword Sect gathers all the disciples into the middle of the Arena

There the Disciples will be chosen directly by Sect Leader Liu Shan, whoever is elected will get a special badge as proof of the participants

“Yang will participate in the Tournament in the capital is.”

Shou Yan did not hear his name being mentioned and it made his heart slightly happy yet how shocked it was when Liu Shan announced the last participant

“Participants to seven.. Shou Yan”

Despite opening the two Chi flow gates, Shou Yan was still in the earth realm because the resources he consumed were unable to make him rise by one level

The seven disciples appointed by Liu Shan would be the representatives of the Moon Sword Sect and they were all lined up before the sect elders

Liu Shan gave directly the Circle-shaped badge made from the White Jade until he came face to face with Shou Yan and whispered something in his ear

“I actually don't want to choose you but.. Who sows, he will reap”

Shou Yan answered him with a slow nod, he realized that all seven participants except himself had been in the Intermediate realm and that one of them had been in the second stage

While the problem he caused with the Patriarch was one of the reasons Liu Shan pointed at him

Guo An saw that Shou Yan was still pondering making him a little furious, without anyone noticing, he was quickly in front of Shou Yan

“Tapak Besi”

Shou Yan was surprised when his grandfather was right before him and tried to attack, with an immature readiness he accepted it with the same style

“Tapak Besi”

The two sites clashed with each other and made both of them the center of attention

Shou Yan expended almost all his strength to compensate for the attack from his grandfather and was pushed back one step, even so Guo An still smiled proudly

“Based on brats, you can already use your two Chi streams instead.?” Whisper Guo An while patting Shou Yan on the shoulder

“Where does grandpa know.?” Sometimes Shou Yan bothered if his grandfather secretly paid attention to him, because whatever he did was always visible in Guo An's eyes

Guo An did not respond to Shou's question but the warm smile he showed made him even more excited

As the two took center stage, Liu Shan tried to change the situation by saying Guo An had tested one of the participants before heading towards the capital

“You..?” Guo An did not expect Liu Shan to use him to be an encouragement to the other participants

Seeing Guo An's gaze, Liu Shan only coughed softly before continuing his speech “How is Elder Guo..? Are the seven disciples I have appointed very satisfying.?”

Guo An wanted to curse loudly but seeing the confident gaze of the other participants made him undo the intention “For the six participants have a solid foundation and very good”

“...while you..!? Practice harder”

“Good Elder” Although looks firm, but Shou Yan feels Guo An has put his hopes on him

After the release ceremony, all participants departed with elder Fan Cou as the leader of “I hope you guys are ready to achieve victory”

“Good Fan” Elders Seventh participants saluted before finally leaving using a horse carriage

Shou Yan had previously searched for Xiao Lung in the ranks of the sect top brass because ever since he gave her a gift, he felt that the distance had gotten even further

Although it felt faint, he saw a figure from the window of the carriage he was riding, Shou Yan narrowed his eyes and realized that a girl was standing staring at him from the roof of the house

“I can't believe fate brought us together in this life” he said while holding an eclaudamur flower

Seeing that Fan Cou's entourage had already come out of the Sect's gate then Liu Shan revealed what he thought “ Senior Guo, are you sure you don't want to accompany your grandson.?”

The only ones who knew Shou Yan the grandson of Guo An were Liu Shan and Jiang Qe, while the technique that Guo An had done before, was the one he had taught all the disciples so as not to arouse suspicion

“If I continue to pamper, Yan’er will not be able to fulfill his destiny” His own little heart wants to keep an eye on Shou Yan up close but he realizes that there are still many things to do

“What Senior still wants to fight warrior Ning again.?”

“If I don't, this peace is all Guo An realizes if the task of guarding the border is not his obligation, but before Shou Yan is 8 years old he must continue to supervise the border area

“Let me help you”

“No..! The reason I became part of the sect was to guarantee the safety of Yan’er” Guo An went to leave both of them “If Yan'er asks, just say I run his Imbuh” mission

“Senior Liu, will he be fine.?” Jiang Qe who had been silent from the start while observing the two now started asking after seeing Guo An start to drift away

“Entahlah, at least he is not an arbitrary swordsman”

“What's just because he fought a thousand soldiers Ning two years ago.?” Although Jiang Qe did not see it directly but he had heard the news at the border that there was an old grandfather figure who killed a thousand Ning soldiers with a smile

“Already... we better prepare everything, because Senior Guo's guess never misses”

“Alright, I can't wait to avenge my wife's death”

The two left the arena and prepared everything necessary for the imminent war

“Hey, do you know why Chairman Liu chose him.?”

“Of course because he's a licker”

“True, let's see when in the morning, he always sweeps the page to seek the attention of our Master”

The entourage of the Moon Sword Sect was divided into two chariots, the front row consisted of Fan Cou and three disciples, while the second row consisted of Shou Yan and three other disciples

The sect had many chariots due to the increasing number of disciples received, but each carriage only had a capacity of 5 people including the coachman

Shou Yan who heard the whisper of another disciple could only be speechless, he was aware that they deliberately raised his voice for him to hear

If Shou Yan gets consumed by their talk and starts a commotion inside the carriage, he alone will have to bear the consequences

The requirement of participants participating in the Young Shoots Tournament was to be seven to twelve years old and each Sect was required to send seven of its Disciples

The rules stated that, fellow participants were not allowed to fight each other outside the Tournament including fellow Sect disciples

And Shou Yan knew it clearly their intention to get him out of the Tournament in a way that made him start a commotion

“Hei poor boy, what did you do so Chairman Liu chose you.?”

“Chairman Guo just to attack you. Is it possible that you have made him angry.?”

“Or don't-don't. You haven't cleaned up her home page.?”

The three laughed loosely when they saw Shou Yan only looking down when he was ridiculed, one of them hitting his head with the tip of the sword still sheathed

Even the ten-year-old disciple who was sitting right in front of Shou Yan spat in his face while continuing to mock “Dasar sycophant”
