A month has finally passed.
All the princes from the royal family of the Northern Star Region came to the palace.
This is the place where they come to prominence every five years. Last time, the crown prince Yuwen Tiantong had not recovered from his injury, so he did not participate.
However, his withdrawal will inevitably make another young master stand out from the crowd, and he is the thirteenth young master Yuwen Guanglie.
This Yuwen Guanglie is much younger than the prince, he is only in his early thirties this year, but he showed good talent in the family competition five years ago.
At that time, Yuwen Guanglie finally won the first place in the family competition with his cultivation strength of the seventh level of Yuanhun. However, the domain master only rewarded him with some treasures and did not mention his status in the Northern Star Territory.
Therefore, Yuwen Guanglie has always been worried about this matter. At the same time, his mother, Mrs. Wu, has also hinted to the domain lord many times that this matter should be explained to everyone.
After all, in the Yuwen family, if he achieves glory by relying on his own strength, then he is qualified to obtain the corresponding status.
Therefore, as the founder of this family inheritance rule, Yu Wenhai naturally had no way to refuse Mrs. Wu's request.
Therefore, he had no choice but to promise all the princes that this family competition would be absolutely fair, because all the princes would participate, including the prince.
When everyone gathered at the martial arts field in the palace, they discovered that there was an additional young master in this year's family tree, and this young master was the Yu Wenyan mentioned by the domain master in the previous announcement to the entire Northern Star Territory.
It's just that they didn't pay much attention to this young master who suddenly appeared, because all young masters who come from the great families of the Northern Star Territory will be named by the domain lord himself.
And this Yu Wenyan looked like he was born to a concubine of the Territory Lord back then. He was not even qualified for the Territory Lord to give him a name. Therefore, his name was probably given to him casually by his mother.
At the same time, everyone also heard that this Yu Wenyan was the deacon of the Dan Pavilion who came to the Beitian Star Territory before. Although he had a noble status, at the banquet that night, everyone present witnessed that he was indeed just a person. A famous alchemist.
But thinking about it, this is normal. Judging from his age, he should be less than twenty years old. He is already a second-level alchemist at such a young age, so how can he still be a cultivator?
Therefore, no matter how noble his current status is, he is completely useless in today's family competition.
At this time, I saw a young man with a strong body and handsome appearance slowly walking out from among the crowd. He smiled calmly after scanning the family tree.
"The prince has finally recovered, what a joy to congratulate him!"
This young man was none other than Yuwen Guanglie, and among the genealogy hanging on the wall, the only thing that caught his eye was the name of the person at the front, Yuwen Tiantong!
Because in Yuwen Guanglie's heart, this position should have belonged to him five years ago. It was only because of his father's strong maintenance that Yuwen Tiantong was allowed to stay there for another five years.
However, this time he could no longer be a coward, so Yuwen Guanglie had secretly made up his mind that he must make the prince lose miserably, so as to relieve his hatred.
"Haha... Brother Thirteen, I'm afraid your cultivation has improved a lot now. I was no match for you five years ago, and now I can't stand your ten moves.
Therefore, I don’t dare to have any extravagant hopes for the title of heir apparent. I just hope that if you meet the Thirteenth Brother later, you will be merciful to the Fourteenth Brother! "
At this time, a slightly thin young man dressed in fine clothes stepped forward and said to Yuwen Guanglie with a smile.
Yuwen Guanglie sneered and replied disdainfully.
"The fourteenth brother is indeed a smart man, but are you a little too confident if you want to last ten moves in my hands?!"
"Ah, haha! What Brother Thirteen is saying is, how can I fight you with so many moves? It's just that Brother Thirteen, you can't defeat me with just one move. That would make me lose face."
I promise the Thirteenth Brother, as long as you treat me gently, how about the Fourteenth Brother offering the North Sea Luminous Pearl with both hands later? "
Hearing this, Yuwen Guanglie smiled with satisfaction.
"Since the Fourteenth Brother is so sincere, then naturally I, the older brother, cannot refute your face. That's it!"
"Okay, Brother Thirteen is so happy!"
Hearing this, how could the young masters still not understand that this year's family competition has nothing to do with them. Although many of these young masters have strong cultivation, they all know that they can really defeat Yu Wen. There are almost no bright people left.
Therefore, although they also came to participate in the family competition, they did not dare to ask for the position of heir apparent. They only hoped to get a higher ranking, so that they could at least gain the respect of their father and give them corresponding rewards. status and wealth.
But at this moment, everyone's eyes lit up, because a person suddenly appeared on the edge of the martial arts field. This person was none other than Miss Xuan Meng, who had traveled thousands of miles from the Dan Territory to the Beitian Star Territory.
She is indeed very outstanding, and she attracts the attention of countless people wherever she goes. No wonder the prince couldn't wait to show his courtesy to her when she first came to the palace for the night banquet.
It was only at this time that everyone discovered that there was another person beside her that no one had noticed just now. That person was Yu Wenyan, who was also participating in the clan competition this year.
Originally, Xuan Meng's appearance made these young masters a little overjoyed, because they all hoped that they would be the first to catch her eye. Even if they passed her by, he would be the first person Xuan Meng saw.
Although this does not explain anything, people's hearts are always strange, especially when a group of passionate young people are in front of a peerless beauty, this situation is even more serious.
However, just when they were holding their chests and abdomen high, looking forward to it, they found that Yu Wenyan slowly turned sideways, held Xuan Meng's jade arm and walked towards the other side. At the same time, they also clearly knew that Chu De heard Yu Wenyan's words.
"Let's go sit over there together."
Xuan Meng then followed him very obediently and left, leaving only a group of expectant and slightly angry people who remained in place motionless.
They wanted to go up and stop Yu Wenyan and Xuan Meng, but in that case, they didn't know what to say. They couldn't just say that they were jealous to death and wanted Xuan Meng to look at them more. Then they were in the Northern Star Territory. I don’t want the young master’s face any more!
Just when everyone was having their own thoughts, they suddenly heard a loud laughter coming from outside the venue, and then everyone saw the crown prince Yuwen Tiantong blocking the path of Yuwen Yan and Xuan Meng.
"Long time no see, you two. How is everything?"
As Yuwen Tiantong spoke, his eyes flicked back and forth between Yuwen Yan and Xuan Meng, but in the end, his eyes fell on Yu Wenyan.
Because now he can no longer look down on this young man. At first, he only thought that Yu Wenyan was just an alchemist. As long as he could afford it, it was natural for him to refine elixirs for him.
However, after he learned that Yu Wenyan was also his father's son, and even had some friction with him in the early years, he looked at Yu Wenyan in a different light.
After all, it was Yu Wenyan who deliberately made him suffer this month of inhuman torture. How could he dare to look down on this young man who was so scheming and cruel!
But as soon as he finished speaking, Yu Wenyan asked.
"You can still speak now. It seems that you have adapted to it this month."
When Yuwen Tiantong heard his words, his heart suddenly filled with anger. Although he could speak now, the bitterness remaining in his belly still made him miserable. Who can understand this endless torture.
And Yuwen Tiantong knew very well that he could not question him about this matter in front of all the young masters, otherwise, his father's matter of asking Yu Wenyan to refine the soul nourishing pill for him would be exposed.
However, the reason why he was so happy and even able to hold back the bitterness in his stomach to block Yu Wenyan was because he found that Yu Wenyan had made a very stupid decision.
That's why Yu Wenyan chose to reveal his identity at this time, and he actually dared to appear here!
As a result, Yuwen Tiantong smiled with a strange expression.
"I don't want to adapt, I'm afraid you will come up with other ways, but these are not important anymore, because you are now my brother, and I will also personally thank you for your kindness to me this month. care!"
When Yuwen Tiantong's words fell, all the young masters present seemed a little unclear about what they were talking about and looked mysterious.
However, their guess was that the prince still refused to give up on Miss Xuanmeng, so he also became hostile to Yu Wenyan.
But at this time, Yuwen Guanglie was keenly aware that it was time for him to "hero save the beauty". Of course, rescuing Yuwen Yan by the way could be regarded as a meeting gift for his love for the beauty!
So, Yuwen Guanglie came to the three of them and said with a smile.
"This is Yuwen Guanglie, the Thirteenth Young Master of the Northern Star Region. Today is the big day for our clan competition. You don't know what you are talking about if you stay here for so long?"
Seeing Yuwen Guanglie coming to make trouble for no reason, Yuwen Tiantong said angrily.
"What does it have to do with you what we're talking about?"
"Oh, Your Majesty, you are out of touch when you say that. If there is something that cannot be discussed between us brothers, if we have to stand here, why not go sit down over there first and then talk about it.
Even if both of you are not tired, you should still consider how Miss Xuanmeng feels. After all, she is a distinguished guest of the royal father. What do you think, prince? "
Yuwen Guanglie was originally here to show his courtesy to Xuan Meng, so he always observed Xuan Meng's expression while speaking.
When he found Xuan Meng slowly nodding in agreement, he even ignored that the prince had not finished speaking and stepped forward to take them to the table.
However, Yuwen Tiantong's face darkened at this time and he said coldly.
"Wait a minute, Thirteenth Brother, don't you think too much of me? I am still the Crown Prince, and you are just a young master. I hope you don't forget your identity!"
Yuwen Guanglie saw that the prince was not going to give up, so he said patiently.
"The prince is in serious condition, but the father hasn't come yet, so we are treating his distinguished guest here so slowly. I'm afraid it won't be easy for anyone to explain to us then, right?"
Yuwen Tiantong snorted coldly after hearing this.
"Thirteenth brother, I advise you not to have any thoughts, because you don't have the strength!"
As soon as Yuwen Tiantong said these words, no one could hear the threat in his words. However, although Yuwen Guanglie is just an ordinary young master now, he does not think that after today's clan competition, the prince can still be superior. .
So, he replied not to be outdone.
"You will only know if you have the strength to compete with me. Isn't it a bit too early for the prince to conclude that I don't have that strength now?"
However, at this moment, Yu Wenyan said impatiently.
"If all you can do is talk the talk, then I advise you to speak less. After all, you can't win the family competition with your words!"
"you!"
"Arrogant!"
Hearing this, the Crown Prince and Yuwen Guanglie suddenly had angry expressions on their faces, but before they could get angry, Xuan Meng, who had been silent all the time, said calmly.
"Are you two done yet?"
As Xuan Meng's words fell, she suddenly released a powerful soul pressure, and the prince and Yuwen Guanglie were also knocked back two or three steps at the same time.
Just when everyone was surprised that Xuan Meng had such advanced cultivation, they heard her speak lightly.
"It's so boring!"
