Chapter 508: 285 In another twenty years, this New Heavenly Master might surpass me! (Please subscribe! Please vote monthly!)
Inside the gymnasium, thousands of spectators were seated, amongst which ordinary people mingled with hidden world Magic Masters.
After all, this was Dragon Country’s official first attempt to recruit these secret Magic Masters, making it quite a spectacle.
In the venue of the gymnasium.
Two hosts, one male and one female, both experienced presenters from Dragon Country.
They had been in the field for years, hosting many official grand events.
Such a grand occasion, after all, required two people capable of commanding the scene.
Following a brief introductory speech by the hosts,
The rules of this Magic Convention were simple.
It was merely the most basic one-on-one duel.
Those who believed they had the strength to compete could take the stage, whether using magic or Magic Artifacts.
In the end, only those who could remain on stage would be deemed the winner.
After stating the rules, the male host said, "Of course, the main purpose of this Magic Convention is to recruit talent, so please control yourselves during the exchanges and avoid creating disturbances, as it would be unpleasant.
Of course, I’m sure no one will cause trouble, especially since our Chief Judge for this event is none other than a Taoist from Qingyun Mountain! I trust everyone will respect the Taoists!"
As the male host spoke, the official media’s cameras focused on the row of Taoists sitting in the judges’ seats.
One could see a row of Red Robed Taoists sitting there.
Among the seven Red Robed Taoists was one dressed in a golden robe.
He was the current Heavenly Master from Qingyun Mountain.
With the Heavenly Master present,
Nobody would probably dare to cause trouble here.
...
Looking at the Heavenly Master from Qingyun Mountain seated in the judges’ seats.
Below, many experts from the hidden magic world had their eyes fixated on him.
"Is that the Heavenly Master of this generation from Qingyun Mountain?"
"With the outside world cut off for so many years, has Qingyun Mountain’s Old Heavenly Master also retired? I wonder how much of the Old Heavenly Master’s strength from the old days remains in Qingyun Mountain!"
"This young Heavenly Master doesn’t look very capable. Master, how confident are you in defeating him if you competed?"
"How could a master bully the younger ones? But still, we have to give Qingyun Mountain face. Give him another twenty years with the Green Cloud Mountain Thunder Technique, and this New Heavenly Master might surpass me."
A senior from the hidden forces remarked while looking at the golden-robed Qin Hao.
...
Among the hidden forces, many of the younger generation were aware of Qingyun Mountain’s reputation.
Back when the Old Heavenly Master was still around,
Using the overwhelming Five Thunder True Method, he dominated the world.
Aside from the reclusive Yuxu Mountain, Qingyun Mountain’s Thunder Technique was the leading magic mastery.
Many masters from hidden magic forces had sparred with the Old Heavenly Master in the past.
And all they had received in response was "unfathomable."
The strength of the Old Heavenly Master was unquestionable.
He had firmly established his reputation among these hidden forces using Thunder Technique alone.
But this New Heavenly Master put forth by Qingyun Mountain now was different.
External netizens knew how strong Qin Hao was.
However, these hidden forces did not.
As implied by the term "hidden," it is evident that they had almost no contact with the outside world, even information was incredibly isolated.
To put it plainly, they were a bunch of country bumpkins.
Usually holed up deep in the mountains, they seldom came out once every decade.
It’s the year 9026, and more than a thousand people together couldn’t even muster a single cell phone.
Coming down from the hidden mountains to Wanjiang City, had it not been for the official door-to-door notification and bus transportation,
This bunch would probably have had to walk all the way here.
Naturally, they would not be aware of things on the internet.
So, in their view, this generation’s Heavenly Master being so young,
Might have some strength, but not likely too strong.
However, whether the Heavenly Master was strong or not was none of their concern.
They were here to show their faces officially.
Since the Magic Convention had already commenced.
From the stage, the first to jump down was a short, slender old man.
As soon as this person entered the field, he began, "I am Lu Xiaxing, Sect Leader of the Earth Hidden Sect from Yin Mountain, proficient in the Five Elements Water and Earth Techniques. My skills are modest; I throw a brick to attract jade; which esteemed person would duel with me?"
Listening to his introduction.
He was born in the Earth Hidden Sect from Yin Mountain and was its Sect Leader.
"Earth Hidden Sect? Master, what kind of sect is that? I’ve never heard of it before!"
In the venue, a young disciple from a hidden magic force asked an older member of their group what this Earth Hidden Sect was.
It wasn’t very famous, no one had mentioned it before.
The sect elder pondered for a moment and then said, "It seems to be a branch of the sect lineage passed down from the time of the Three Kingdoms by Zhuge Kongming, who was proficient in the use of the Five Elements and set up the Eight Diagram Array Technique. This Earth Hidden Sect probably descended from there."
Clearly, even this sect elder was not quite sure what this Earth Hidden Sect was about.
There were too many hidden sects and too many diverse schools.
Apart from a few with renowned names, who could tell clearly?
Seeing how unimposing and petite the Sect Leader of the Earth Hidden Sect was,
This Earth Hidden Sect, it must be some minor sect.
At this moment, Lu Xiaxing stood inside the gymnasium.
Waiting for an opponent.
Shortly after, accompanied by a cold snort, a person in a Black Robe descended from the sky.
Lu Xiaxing looked at the Black Robe descending from the sky.
Lu Xiaxing first made a gesture of respect, then smilingly asked, "I am Lu Xiaxing, the Sect Leader of Earth Hidden Sect. May I know how to address you?"
The man in the Black Robe wore a stern expression and said, "Gray Mist Mountain, as for my name, you are not worthy to know."
This Black Robe clearly looked down on the diminutive Lu Xiaxing.
He only mentioned his Mountain Gate and did not give his own name.
Hearing the term "Gray Mist Mountain."
Some among the hidden forces recognized it.
"Gray Mist Mountain! That is also a Mountain Gate that has been inherited for over eight hundred years. It is said that the founders of Gray Mist Mountain were a gang of mountain bandits who accidentally obtained the Cultivation Method and thus entered the world of magic.
But what good could a gang of bandits who gained the art of magical cultivation do? After gaining power, they caused trouble locally, committing various misdeeds until five hundred years ago when a Purple Robed Heavenly Master from Qingyun Mountain passed by the area and suppressed several leaders of Gray Mist Mountain with thunderous methods, almost annihilating the sect.
Only a shrimp and crab general or two managed to escape by chance, barely surviving. Unexpectedly, after so many years, Gray Mist Mountain has not lost its lineage and has continued until now."
The reputation of Gray Mist Mountain was much greater than that of Earth Hidden Sect.
After all, the event of a Heavenly Master from Qingyun Mountain powerfully suppressing several leaders of Gray Mist Mountain five hundred years ago was still mentioned to this day.
Gray Mist Mountain thus became infamous.
Gray Mist Mountain, this notorious force, also came to join the crowd, trying to join the officials?
Many elders from the hidden forces shook their heads; this must be a joke.
What kind of cats and dogs can come here now?
Someone asked, "Can this Sect Leader of the Earth Hidden Sect beat this Black Robe from Gray Mist Mountain?"
"It’s hard to say; although Gray Mist Mountain has a bad reputation, it still has some strength. After all, it was significant enough for a Heavenly Master to personally take action, and they managed to let a few escape from the Heavenly Master’s hands five hundred years ago. It’s not just unwarranted fame, but as of now, no one knows the strength of this Sect Leader of Earth Hidden Sect.
It’s still not clear now, let’s wait for their duel."
After all, they were a bunch of old timers secluded in the hidden world.
Without a real fight, no one knew who was stronger or weaker.
They could only wait and see.
