Xu Yang spotted Lin Jingyu, the Yellow Maple Valley genius he had once fought, Huang Xiao, who had defeated Zhang Hanzhou, and the female disciple from Yellow Maple Valley whose name he did not know.
Besides those three, there were two others who looked quite young. They were probably geniuses heading to the Second Dragon Ascension as well.
Ahead of the five disciples stood two middle-aged men Xu Yang had never seen before. They were presumably the elders escorting Yellow Maple Valley's party.
Two surges of fighting spirit rose beside him. Without turning his head, Xu Yang knew they came from Zhang Hanzhou and Qi Xuancheng.
In their previous sparring matches, Qi Xuancheng had lost to Lin Jingyu, while Zhang Hanzhou had lost to Huang Xiao. Clearly, neither had accepted his defeat.
Suddenly, a piercing gaze landed on Xu Yang. He looked up and met Lin Jingyu's eyes. Just like Qi Xuancheng and Zhang Hanzhou beside him, the fellow was brimming with fighting spirit.
Xu Yang, however, did not react in the slightest. Back then, if he had not been at the Violet Sun Gate, where he could not disgrace the sect, he would never have bothered fighting Lin Jingyu. Besides, how could someone he had already defeated stir his fighting spirit? It was just like Lin Jingyu having no interest in Qi Xuancheng's challenge.
"Whoa..."
The galloping horses came to a halt. Peak Master Yue Zhong waved a hand, dispersing the dust, and cupped his hands. "Yellow Maple Valley actually sent you, Deputy Valley Master Huang You, to lead the party. It seems you attach great importance to this event."
"Greetings, Senior Huang!" Bai Shaoling also cupped his hands.
Huang You returned the gesture. "Greetings, Brother Yue, Young Sect Master Bai, and young friends from the Violet Sun Gate."
