The Legendary Chen Yunxuan

Chen Yunxuan?

Zhang Wenyuan firmly etched the name into his memory, but when he looked up again, he found that Chen Yunxuan and the other person had already vanished.

"Benefactor, I, Zhang Wenyuan, swear that in this life, I will repay your life-saving kindness today."

Zhang Wenyuan secretly vowed in his heart that if he ever had the chance, he would repay Chen Yunxuan's kindness.

After waking his sister, Zhang Wenyuan didn't leave immediately. Instead, he took out the beast cores of the Third-tier Demonic Beast and the Fourth-tier Demonic Beast.

Chen Yunxuan didn't care about these things, but to Zhang Wenyuan, they were extremely precious.

After all, both of these items were priceless. Even if he didn't use them for his own cultivation, he could exchange them for a large amount of cultivation resources.

At this moment, quite a few people had gathered in the depths of Wind Chime Valley. Although it was a competition, no arena was set up. Instead, a few powerful individuals had arranged a barrier.

Those who wished to compete needed to enter the barrier, and only after a victor was decided would the barrier be opened.

"Yushu, what are you looking for?"

Cheng Yulin, the young master of the Cheng Family, saw Cheng Yushu constantly searching through the crowd and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Nothing, I'm looking for Chen Yunxuan."

"This Northern Region Grand Competition is such an important event, I don't believe he wouldn't show up," Cheng Yushu said with a frown.

"Chen Yunxuan? Is that the person you mentioned last time you came back?"

"Has a monstrous talent truly appeared in the Great Zhou Kingdom?"

"Is he really as powerful as you say?" Cheng Yulin asked with a frown.

Hearing this, Cheng Yushu nodded. He found it difficult to forget Chen Yunxuan's performance back then.

After all, it was because of Chen Yunxuan's actions that he lost his position as the young master.

Cheng Yushu and Cheng Yulin were born to the same mother and were twins, so the position of young master naturally fell to Cheng Yulin.

"If it weren't for him, the Great Zhou Kingdom wouldn't have undergone such a huge upheaval, and I wouldn't have been branded with the crime of incompetence by the clan elders and stripped of my position as young master."

"This person is only sixteen years old, yet his cultivation has already reached the Transcendence Realm Second Layer."

"The most terrifying thing is that even someone at the Transcendence Realm Ninth Layer is no match for him. Uncle Liu fought him that day."

"Uncle Liu's evaluation was that this kid's combat power is astonishing, capable of fighting a Divine Ability Realm First Layer expert, and... the outcome was unknown."

"Tell me, just how powerful is he?" Cheng Yushu said in a deep voice.

Cheng Yulin had heard these words before, but whether it was him or others in the Cheng Family, they felt it was somewhat exaggerated.

How could such a monstrous talent appear in a place like the Great Zhou Kingdom?

Furthermore, when the Cheng Family went to the Great Zhou Kingdom afterward to handle matters, they also investigated the Chen Family. The result was that the Chen Family had all fled, their whereabouts unknown.

This made the Cheng Family even more convinced that Cheng Yushu was lying.

Otherwise, if the Chen Family had already destroyed the Great Zhou Imperial Family and firmly occupied the position of the Great Zhou's foremost family, why would they run away?

But now, at this moment, Cheng Yushu brought up Chen Yunxuan again, which forced Cheng Yulin to ponder carefully.

Could it be that such a monstrous individual truly exists?

On the other side, the elders leading the four great families and the elders of the five major sects gathered together.

Although it was called the Northern Region Grand Competition, the truly core members, the competitive younger generation, would definitely emerge from these forces.

"I think the time is almost up. Those who could come have probably all arrived."

"Why don't we start the Northern Region Grand Competition?"

"The other three regions should also be starting around now."

"We can't fall behind them."

"That's right, quickly select the candidates so that we can train them wholeheartedly before the Four Regions Martial Arts Gathering, to avoid embarrassing ourselves at the event."

"Embarrassment is secondary. The most important thing is to achieve a ranking in the Four Regions Martial Arts Gathering."

"Indeed, our Northern Region must unite this time."

This was the most united the major powers of the Northern Region had ever been. Although each had their own little schemes, their ultimate goal was the same.

"Then... shall I make the announcement?" an elder from the Blazing Flame Sect asked with a smile.

"Elder Zhao, your strength is the strongest among us. You should be the one to make the announcement."

"That's right, let Elder Zhao make the announcement."

"Alright, since that's the case, I won't stand on ceremony."

Elder Zhao smiled and nodded, then looked towards the crowd.

"Everyone quiet down!"

As Elder Zhao's voice rang out, the people who were still conversing immediately fell silent.

"I believe all you juniors should be aware of the purpose of holding this Northern Region Grand Competition ahead of time."

"The fact that you are all able to come here indicates that you are all the cream of the crop among the younger generation of our Northern Region."

"The rules for this competition are simple: it's a single-elimination tournament."

"The top ten contestants will be selected to represent our Northern Region in the Four Regions Martial Arts Gathering!"

"The four great families and five major sects have each selected five contestants, who will directly enter the final round of competition."

"I believe everyone should have no objections, right?"

Objections?

Who would dare have objections?

"Very well, since no one has any objections, we will now begin the drawing for the matchups."

After Elder Zhao finished speaking, everyone except the disciples from the four great families and five major sects began drawing lots.

To be honest, this situation was merely a formality.

Elder Zhao and the others already had a list in their hearts of who truly possessed talent and strength.

The Northern Region Martial Arts Gathering was made public for two reasons: firstly, to demonstrate their fairness, and secondly, to see if any hidden talents might emerge.

As everyone was drawing lots, Chen Yunxuan and Omniscient also arrived at the competition grounds.

"Are you really not participating?" Omniscient glanced at Chen Yunxuan and asked with some curiosity.

"It's boring. Even all of them combined aren't my match. Why waste that time?"

If others heard this, they would definitely call Chen Yunxuan arrogant and conceited, but Omniscient knew very well that Chen Yunxuan had the right to say such things.

Having traveled together, Omniscient couldn't help but sigh. Chen Yunxuan was a madman, a madman who cultivated incessantly.

It was as if his entire life revolved around only one thing: becoming stronger.

"Then are you planning to challenge them directly and leave after the fight?" Omniscient asked curiously.

"Forget it, I'll wait. There's no need to disrupt their Northern Region Martial Arts Gathering."

With that, Chen Yunxuan walked to the side and sat down, leaning against a large tree.

In the distance, Cheng Yushu had been looking around anxiously. Just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief when he didn't see Chen Yunxuan, his heart suddenly jolted.

It's him!

He really came!

"Chen Yunxuan, you actually came!" Cheng Yushu's expression was tense, and his voice trembled slightly.

"Who? Chen Yunxuan?"

"Where is he?" Cheng Yulin asked curiously.

"Over there!"

Cheng Yushu pointed, and Cheng Yulin followed his gaze, spotting Chen Yunxuan resting with his eyes closed.

"It's him?"

"He's really this young?"

"But why... isn't he drawing lots?"
