Unbeatable Swordsman

Chapter 12 The Annual Clan Competition Begins

"this year's Clan competition, Grandfather Huang Qide even invited Li Mu, the Old Patriarch of the Li Family, he really spent a lot of effort and connection." Huang Xiaolong thought to himself.

He believed the reason Grandfather invited the Old Patriarch of the Li Family was not that simple.

Along the way to the hall of the East Courtyard decorated with colored lanterns and banners, when the busy guards and servants saw Huang Xiaolong pass by, they immediately stopped to salute: "Young Master Xiaolong!" Huang Xiaolong nodded as he passed by.

However, along the way he could feel strange gazes from the guards and servants behind him, it seemed like Huang Wei's intention to immobilize Huang Xiaolong's arms had reached the ears of the guards and servants.

Huang Xiaolong arrived at the Eastern Courtyard.

Inside the main hall, both Huang Peng and Su Yan were present. 'Mother's father." Huang Xiaolong shouted as he entered the main hall.

"Xiaolong, you're here." Su Yan pulled Huang Xiaolong to sit down next to him then asked: "Tomorrow Clan meeting, how is your training going?" Huang Peng on the other hand also looked at Huang Xiaolong.

Chuckling softly, Huang Xiaolong said: "Dad, Mom, don't worry. Tomorrow I will definitely not let you down.”

Unexpectedly, as his sentence ended, Su Yan almost shouted in surprise: "Xiaolong, did you break through to the middle of the First Order?" Su Yan thought his confidence came from his breakthrough to the middle of the First Order.

Huang Peng laughed out loud at this moment: "Good, son, you really didn't disappoint Father."

When Huang Xiaolong heard the words of his parents, he held back his smile, being able to advance to the middle of the First Order before the annual Clan meeting was the highest hope his parents had towards him?

"Dad, I heard from the guards of this year's annual Clan society, the Old Patriarch of the Li Family, Li Mu is coming?" Huang Xiaolong asked, changing the topic.

Huang Peng nodded: "This time, other than the Old Patriarch of the Li Family himself, he also brought his grandson Li Lu.

"His granddaughter, Li Lu?" Huang Xiaolong was a little confused then jokingly said: "Did Old Patriarch Li bring his granddaughter for an arranged marriage?"

But Huang Peng replied seriously: “That is the purpose of your Grandfather and Old Ancestor Li, once the Clan competition is over, Huang Wei and Li Lu will be engaged and in the future, will be engaged, The Li Family and the Huang Clan will become closer.

“heard-heard that Li Lu's talent was quite good, his was a ninth-grade protective spirit, the Divine Dark Sword.” Su Yan added.

Huang Xiaolong was startled for a moment because he did not expect that the protective spirit of Li Mu's grandson, Li Lu was the Divine Dark Sword.

In Martial Spirit World, there were various forms of protective spirit beasts, weapons, plants, and there were even people with natural protective spirits such as lightning, wind, water, and fire.

And the Divine Dark Sword was one of the many types of protective spirit weapons.

Of course, most of the protective spirits in the Martial Spirit World existed in the form of beasts, for example the Three-Eyed Black Tiger Huang Wei, the, Six-winged Golden Ape Huang Qide and the two-headed snake Huang Xiaolong variant.

A while later Huang Xiaolong returned to his small courtyard and continued to practice Asura Tektik.

Slowly, night came.

Huang Xiaolong was standing on a hilltop in the back mountain, not moving in the slightest but he was not training, he instead looked at the vast sea in front of him.

Releasing the two-headed snake protective spirit that floated behind him, Huang Xiaolong could clearly feel how powerful his protective spirit was after advancing to the Third Order and he became the only person who could sense it.

“It looks like I need to go to the library to see if I can find out about my Protector's spirit.” Huang Xiaolong muttered to himself.

However, the Huang Clan Manor's library only allowed those who had reached the Fourth Order to enter that was why he needed to breakthrough to the Fourth Order as soon as possible.

The moonlight stretched Huang Xiaolong's small shadow on the ground.

The darkness gradually faded as the light illuminated the sky, the figure of Huang Xiaolong running, returning to the Huang Clan Manor.

"The Annual Meeting of the Clans has finally arrived!" The Clan Annual Competition is about to begin.

Returning to the Huang Clan Manor, he moved straight towards the Eastern Courtyard.

When his parents, Huang Peng and Su Yan saw him coming over did not say much, the three of them then walked into the main hall.

The Main Hall was twice the size of the Martial Hall could fit a thousand people.

In front of the Main hall was a martial stage, and chairs lined around the martial stage for the elders and housekeepers of the Huang Clan Manor whereas the disciples could only stand in the open space of the back area.

"Second Master of the House."

"Second Master of the House."

A group of elders, housekeepers, and disciples immediately greeted Huang Peng.

Huang Peng nodded.

Su Yan and Huang Xiaolong followed from behind him arriving in front of the table and chair and sat down.

After sitting down, Huang Xiaolong felt a cold gaze staring at him, raising his head to find the source, he looked at Huang Wei who was sitting opposite him.

At this moment, their eyes met – Huang Wei's gaze was arrogant, condescending, provoking, and complacent.

Sitting beside Huang Wei was Huang Ming, with an expressionless flat face.

As Huang Peng sat down, he did not greet Huang Ming. Since the incident in the northern courtyard, the two of them no longer spoke to each other, from brother to being like strangers going their respective paths.

Not long after the three of them arrived, from the outer hall came a warm laugh, hearing the laughter of everyone within the hall quickly standing up.

Huang Xiaolong looked at his Grandfather Huang Qide, who was, walking into the hall with a face full of laughter and next to his grandfather was a spirited old man with a head full of silvery-white hair the age of Huang Qide immediately knew he was Old Patriarch Li, Li Mu's.

Following behind Li Mu was a beautiful girl with two braids and bright round eyes circling around curiously.

"Big Master."

"Patriarch Old Li."

Everyone present quickly greeted, and after that Huang Ming, Huang Peng and Su Yan came:

"Dad, Old Patriarch Li."

"Grandfather, Old Patriarch Li."

Huang Wei and Huang Xiaolong also came, following from behind.

Huang Qide chuckled and nodded, then said to Li Mu while pointing at Huang Wei: "This is my grandson, Huang Wei."

But he only introduced Huang Wei without mentioning Huang Xiaolong.

Li Mu looked at Huang Wei from top to bottom, with an expression of appreciation saying: “Not bad. Brother Qide, I heard that your grandson training for less than two months has already broken through to the First Order warriors, I broke through to the First Order at that time, if not mistakenly using more than five months. ”

Huang Qide laughed happily when he heard this: "brother Li Mu, please give advice and take care of him in the future."

"In the future, that's of course." Li Mu laughed.

A few moments later, everyone returned to their seats.

Then, Household Chief Steward Chen Ying stood up starting to talk about the rules of the Annual clan competition, after finishing he turned to look at Huang Qide, seeing Huang Qide nod his head, he declared in a loud voice : "the Annual Clan Competition begins!" Chen Ying's declaration met with a silent hall.

Following the rules of the previous years, the first ones to go on stage were usually those who awakened their protective spirit this year.

Everyone could not resist but looking at Huang Wei, everyone knew the purpose of the Great Lord attending the clan meeting this year, Huang Wei was destined to be the main focus of attention.

"Huang Wei, go and show me the results of your five-month effort, let everyone see your achievements." Huang Qide said to his grandson Huang Wei, his eyes full of vigor.

“Ya, Grandpa.” Huang Wei stood up and jumped into the middle of the competition stage.

Landing on the competition stage, Huang Wei looked at his training technique all along, completely releasing his reiqi and protective spirit, the Three-Eyed Black Tiger hovering behind him emitting a fairly powerful aura.

“Peak of First Order!” Sensing the aura of reiqi unleashed by Huang Wei, the elders from the Huang Clan Manor, the housekeeper and the disciples were greatly shocked creating a commotion.

Just five months of practicing managing reiqi, yet Huang Wei had reached the peak of the First Order!
