Chapter 101
Three days had passed in a blink of an eye. The Asura God Tribe had entered the early winter season, and the weather was getting cold. The mortals were already wearing winter clothes to resist the cold.
Xiao Chen was still wearing the thin black martial attire. It might be a little tight, but it showed off his strong but not bloated body.
Today was the day of the Sha Thearch City’s Hunting Tournament, which was personally organized by the Sha Thearch City Lord, Sha Potian.
The participants were all the young masters and ladies from the various clans in the Sha Thearch City. They could choose not to participate, but if a clan didn’t send a representative, it would be very embarrassing.
Hence, every year, the Sha Thearch City’s great clans, the eight great clans, and dozens of small and medium clans would send at least one young master to participate in the Hunting Tournament. Firstly, it was for their reputation, and secondly, it was for the generous rewards.
As the City Lord of the Sha Thearch City, Sha Potian had his own charisma and methods. Five years ago, he organized the Hunting Tournament. The top three would receive generous rewards from the Sha Clan. Apart from a large amount of purple gold, there were also some precious cultivation resources. For example, last year’s champion’s prize was a stalk of Purple Orchid Grass that could strengthen one’s physique. It might not be comparable to the Dragon Heart Grass, but it was still rather precious.
The reason why he organized the Hunting Tournament was to display the Sha Clan’s unparalleled status. It was to constantly remind the Asura God Tribe, especially the eight great clans of the Sha Thearch City, that he was the boss of the Asura God Tribe.
Anyone who wanted to snatch the boss’ position could do so, but they would be hunted down by the Sha Clan just like the desolate beasts.
In the previous four years of the Hunting Tournament, the champions were all easily taken by the Sha Clan’s young masters and ladies. Naturally, the prizes belonged to the Sha Clan.
Hence, the best prizes were from the Sha Clan’s right pocket and wouldn’t be given to the other clans. This was the Sha Clan’s craftiness.
Xiao Chen naturally didn’t care about the prizes of the previous Hunting Tournaments. He only cared about this year’s champion’s prize … the Dragon Heart Grass. For the Dragon Heart Grass, he could slaughter all the desolate beasts in the Black Forest. He could even … slaughter all the participants.
At this moment, in the center of Sha Di City, there was a large group of young masters dressed in extravagant clothes and young ladies dressed in flowery dresses and jewelry. It seemed that all the young masters and young ladies had specially dressed up. It was hard to tell if they were here to hunt wild beasts, pick up beauties, or hook up with rich husbands.
Xiao Chen was naturally among the group of young masters and ladies, but he stood at the very back. He was dressed in ordinary black clothes and carried a huge wooden sword on his back, which made him stand out among the hundreds of elegant or gorgeously dressed young masters and ladies. He looked like a crane among a flock of chickens.
The young masters and mistresses of the Sha Clan stood at the front of the crowd. They could not bear to be associated with Xiao Chen, who was dressed like a country bumpkin, and thought that Xiao Chen was a disgrace to the Sha Clan.
Regretless Killer, Extraordinary Killer, and Merciless Killer were all experts bestowed by the God of Berserk Transformation. Their statuses were honorable, and their demeanor was elegant. Naturally, they attracted the attention of countless pretty girls.
Sha Buyu was the young lady of the Sha Clan, and she was also a warrior bestowed by the God of Berserk Transformation. In addition to her voluptuous figure and beautiful face, she naturally attracted the fiery gazes of countless young masters.
If any of the young masters could win the favor of Sha Buyu and return with a beauty, it would be a wonderful thing.
Not only could they obtain a powerful beauty, but they could also become in-laws of the Sha Clan. It was entirely possible for them to become the second largest clan in the Sha God Tribe.
Ji Haoyue and Situ Nan were also standing at the front of the crowd. Situ Nan still had that arrogant and infuriating attitude. Ji Haoyue’s white clothes fluttered in the wind, and his face was beaming with joy. He had awakened the God of Golden Armor not too long ago, so he was naturally proud of his success. His behavior was extraordinary, and he was elegant in every aspect. The number of young ladies who welcomed him was no less than the three young masters of the Sha Clan.
Most of the other young masters and a few young ladies looked at Xiao Chen with vague disdain. However, they didn’t show it too obviously. Who in the Sha Emperor City didn’t know about Xiao Chen’s infamy?
Who wouldn’t know?
Whoever dared to offend Xiao Chen might get smacked by Xiao Chen’s sword. Even if they didn’t die, they would still be crippled!
They never complained that their lives were too long. They would only lament that their lives were too short, because they still had a lot of beautiful lives waiting for them to enjoy.
Xiao Chen didn’t care about how others looked at him. He only hoped that the Grand Hunting Competition would start earlier, and then he would slaughter the desolate beasts that were third grade and above. He would kill anyone who stood in his way, destroy Buddha who stood in his way, and kill gods who stood in his way. He would bravely become the champion, all for the sake of the Dragon Heart Grass.
Around the hundred young masters and young ladies were two hundred black-armored cavalrymen from the Sha Clan. They were a black mass, fully armed, and stood there coldly. They faintly emitted a huge killing intent, which caused the temperature of the surrounding air to drop by quite a bit.
These two hundred black-armored cavalrymen were responsible for protecting and rescuing the participants, as well as maintaining order. Actually, they had another purpose, which was to intimidate the eight major clans of the Sha Clan.
The young masters and young ladies couldn’t stand the murderous aura of the black-armored cavalrymen and subconsciously distanced themselves from them. Only Xiao Chen wasn’t affected. He continued to stand closest to the black-armored cavalrymen. With his cold image, if he was also equipped with a black horse, others would definitely treat him as a black-armored cavalryman.
The Third Elder, Sha Po Lang, stood at the front of the group of young masters and young ladies. At this moment, he had a dignified expression as he gave a brief speech before the competition: “Everyone, today is the annual Grand Hunting Competition of the Sha Clan. It will last for three days, and all of you should know the specific rules. I won’t be long-winded. Let’s go!
To the Black Forest! ”
“Clatter, clatter, clatter!”
At this moment, a purplish-red horse and a grey-furred horse galloped over from the south of the city. Everyone’s gaze landed on the lady on the back of the purplish-red horse. All the young masters’ eyes suddenly lit up, and they immediately became passionate. As for the young ladies, their eyes were filled with jealousy and envy.
The lady on the purplish-red horse was wearing a set of light green skintight clothes. Her voluptuous figure was comparable to Sha Po Lang’s, and it was very pleasing to the eyes. On top of her body, there was a beautiful woman’s head. She had an absolutely beautiful appearance, a charming demeanor, and a seductive gaze.
Liu Ruyue!
What was she doing here?
Could it be that she was also here to participate in the Grand Hunting Competition?
She had never participated in it before. Could it be that something had changed today?
Therefore, no one knew why Liu Ruyue was here. Some of them even thought that Liu Ruyue was here to send them off.
After a while, Liu Ruyue arrived in front of Sha Po Lang. She didn’t get off the horse, but she cupped her fists and bowed to Sha Po Lang in a heroic manner. Her pleasant voice was heard: “Lord Sha, Ruyue is representing the Liu Clan to participate in the Grand Hunting Competition. Is that okay?”
Wow!
The crowd was in an uproar!
Liu Ruyue was really here to participate in the Grand Hunting Competition. Was she out of her mind?
Although they were shocked, many young masters were excited. If the Witch Liu Ruyue was participating in the Grand Hunting Competition, they would have more chances to get close to Liu Ruyue. If they accidentally found a spark of love, they would have hit the jackpot.
Sha Po Lang was a little surprised, but he quickly regained his composure. He nodded and said indifferently: “Of course you can. Go in.”
“Thank you, Lord Sha. Hehe.”
Liu Ruyue smiled sweetly. She glanced around and saw Xiao Chen in the crowd. She immediately rode her horse to Xiao Chen’s side and said happily: “Young Master Xiao Chen, you are here too?”
“En.”
Xiao Chen replied indifferently. He then climbed onto a red horse that Sha Po Lang had lent him. He looked straight ahead, no longer looking at Liu Ruyue’s alluring face.
“Hehe.”
Liu Ruyue saw that Xiao Chen wasn’t very enthusiastic towards her, but she didn’t mind. She even gave Xiao Chen an alluring smile.
Wow!
Could it be that Liu Ruyue was here for Xiao Chen?
Many young masters were wailing in their hearts. At the same time, they were cursing Xiao Chen to die in the mouth of a wild beast.
“Black armored knights, listen up!
Lead the way! ”
Sha Po Shen, who was standing at the front of the two hundred black armored knights, shouted coldly. He waved his hand, and the first horse rushed towards the southern gate of Sha Di City. The two hundred black armored knights behind him moved at the same time. They moved in unison, like a huge black tide rushing towards the city gate.
“Go!”
All the young masters and young mistresses rode on their treasured horses or carriages, following behind the black armored knights. Behind them were the guards of the various clans in Sha Di City. The participants were the most outstanding young masters and young mistresses of their respective clans. They were going to the Black Forest far away from Sha Di City to hunt. Naturally, there would be experts from their clans to protect them.
There was only one expert protecting Liu Ruyue, and that was Grandma Liu. Although there weren’t many people, with Grandma Liu around, other than experts like Sha Po Shen, no one would be able to harm Liu Ruyue.
“Rumble!”
The huge troop drove out of the southern gate of Sha Di City and headed towards their destination – the Black Forest.
