Just then, Chen Changqing suddenly stepped forward, shielding Xuanyuan Yun and Xuanyuan Xiaoyu behind him, and looked directly at Xuanyuan Yun:

"Clan Chief Xuanyuan."

You've made a mistake.

"This time, the Ninth Branch of the Xuanyuan Family is sending more than two people to the Transformation Tournament."

"I alone am enough!!"

Chen Changqing said calmly.

It was obvious that Xuanyuan Xiaoyu's lineage was not well-liked within the Xuanyuan Family.

All the other clansmen were thinking of abolishing their branch.

Even Xuanyuan Tian, the patriarch of the Xuanyuan Clan, seems to have the same idea.

He was both Xuanyuan Xiaoyu's fiancé and the ally she had invited to participate in this Annual Competition; how could he allow a woman to protect him?

As soon as Chen Changqing said this, the whole audience was in an uproar.

All eyes turned to Chen Changqing.

"This?"

"I... I didn't hear wrong, did I?"

"How arrogant!"

"Is this the External Aids that the Ninth Earth Branch invited?"

"No way? One person thinks he can represent an entire lineage?"

"Has this kid gone mad?"

"..."

The Xuanyuan clan members and numerous External Aids present were all astonished, their eyes filled with disbelief as they looked at Chen Changqing.

No one expected that an outsider would dare to make such a boastful statement in the Xuanyuan Ancestral Land, in front of the heroes of the Nine Lineages.

Amidst the shock, beneath the dragon Dragon Pillar to the due east, Xuanyuan Lü, representing the First Branch of the Xuanyuan Clan, slowly stepped forward and let out a sneer:

"Ha ha!"

"Could I have misheard?"

"What did this kid say? One person represents an entire lineage?"

"How dare someone with Late Spirit Transformation utter such arrogant words?"

"This is absolutely ridiculous!"

As soon as Xuanyuan Lü uttered these words, the other branches of the Xuanyuan Clan began to laugh at him.

Xuanyuan Jin, of the Fifth Branch, said coldly:

"They really don't know their own limitations!"

"Our Xuanyuan Family Annual Competition is a gathering of heroes, the pride of the eight lineages, and we even have powerful External Aids support. Who do you think you are?"

"Does he think he's the reincarnation of Heavenly Monarch?"

Xuanyuan Xue of the Sixth Branch, his face full of contempt and disdain, sneered:

"Boy, this is the Ancestral Land of the Xuanyuan Clan."

"You're making such boastful claims here; aren't you afraid of your tongue slipping in the wind?"

Is one person enough?

"How ridiculous! Do you think the younger generation of my Xuanyuan Clan are all made of clay?"

"..."

People from all factions mocked him relentlessly, and everyone could see that Chen Changqing was merely at the Late Spirit Transformation.

Such cultivation level, in the outside world, might be considered that of a prodigy.

But within the Xuanyuan Family, it was nothing out of the ordinary.

At this moment, under the Dragon Pillar in the due north direction, Xuanyuan Ao of the Seventh Branch began to mock them even more brazenly.

He slowly stepped forward, his eyes filled with contempt as he looked at Chen Changqing, and said mockingly:

"Kid, you can eat anything, but you can't just make empty promises!"

"Boasting backfires, and there will be consequences!"

"This is my Xuanyuan Ancestral Land, not a place where you can run wild."

Xuanyuan Ao already harbored resentment towards Chen Changqing, especially since he knew that this man was Xuanyuan Xiaoyu's fiancé.

Previously, they encountered Chen Changqing and Xuanyuan Xiaoyu outside the gate of the Xuanyuan Family's Ancestral Land.

Upon learning of Chen Changqing's relationship with Xuanyuan Xiaoyu, he became enraged on the spot and even wanted to use the Bandit Cultivator Transcending cultivation to overpower Chen Changqing and give him a taste of his power.

Unexpectedly, Xuanyuan Xiaoyu actually stood in front of Chen Changqing, protecting him.

At that time, Chen Changqing did not make any moves.

In Xuanyuan Ao's opinion, perhaps he was intimidated by his imposing presence and only dared to hide behind the woman.

Now that Chen Changqing has suddenly stepped forward and said such things in front of everyone, Xuanyuan Ao is naturally dissatisfied.

Hearing the incessant laughter, both Xuanyuan Xiaoyu and Xuanyuan Yun looked grim.

At the same time, they were also shocked by what Chen Changqing said.

After all, according to the original plan, Xuanyuan Xiaoyu and Chen Changqing were supposed to attend the Family Annual Competition together.

To everyone's surprise, Chen Changqing said that he alone was enough.

"Changqing, you..."

Xuanyuan Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment, her red lips parted slightly as if she wanted to say something, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she was speechless.

Chen Changqing remained calm and unperturbed by the surrounding ridicule.

In his view, strength is the only true measure of success. Once the Annual Competition begins, he will let those self-proclaimed superior geniuses of the Xuanyuan Clan know their place.

Their pride and power were nothing compared to him.

"Xiaoyu, don't worry!"

I know what I'm doing.

Chen Changqing glanced back at Xuanyuan Xiaoyu and responded with this remark.

Upon hearing Chen Changqing's words, Xuanyuan Xiaoyu was taken aback.

Thinking back to when he went to that Secret Realm with Chen Changqing to participate in the selection for the Heavenly Monarch Inheritance.

Especially when facing the Second Trial, everyone was pessimistic about Chen Changqing, thinking that Chen Changqing had given up on himself.

Even she and Chen Ye both felt that Chen Changqing wanted to give up.

Unexpectedly, at the last moment, Chen Changqing unleashed his full potential and won first place in the Second Trial of weapon forging.

Seeing Chen Changqing's confident demeanor, Xuanyuan Xiaoyu felt much more at ease.

At the same time, Xuanyuan Yun was shocked by this, but his eyes were full of admiration.

He was becoming increasingly satisfied with his son-in-law.

Although Chen Changqing's strength was not the highest among the many participants in the Annual Competition, his courage and sense of responsibility were something that Xuanyuan Yun greatly admired.

At this moment, Xuanyuan Tian, who was suspended in the void, was also shocked by what Chen Changqing said.

He stared intently at Chen Changqing, and could tell that Chen Changqing was only at the Late Spirit Transformation.

Who is this child?

Is he just trying to attract attention, or does he actually have the skills?

After a moment's thought, Xuanyuan Tian came to his senses and looked at Chen Changqing with a cold expression, asking:

"Young people."

"May I have your name?"

"From which faction?"

Xuanyuan Tian's voice sounded very calm, yet it also gave off an invisible pressure.

His deep eyes were fixed on Chen Changqing, as if he wanted to see right through Chen Changqing.

What truly shocked Xuanyuan Tian was...

Even with his Heavenly Monarch cultivation level, he couldn't see through Chen Changqing.

Besides this, Xuanyuan Tian also had a strange feeling in his heart.

Chen Changqing's cultivation level seemed to be only at the Late Spirit Transformation, and he hadn't hidden it, but Xuanyuan Tian still felt something was off.

In particular, the composure emanating from Chen Changqing was like a surging undercurrent beneath a calm sea.

As Xuanyuan Tian questioned him in this way, everyone else present also became curious.

Everyone wanted to know: what was Chen Changqing's identity and background? How dare he make such outrageous statements?

They actually said he was enough on his own!
