The Spirit Blood Secret Realm was only known to forces like the Tianhuo Sect, Fengxuan Sect, Tongtian Pavilion, and Imperial Capital Academy. Since they had come, they needed a legitimate reason.
It just so happened that Ye Yan had recently caused a heaven and earth phenomenon, and they were eager to recruit talent, which was why they rushed here. Everything made perfect sense.
As soon as He Wen spoke, everyone became incredibly excited.
It was not easy to gain entry into forces like the Tianhuo Sect, Fengxuan Sect, and Imperial Capital Academy. Once admitted, one would enjoy the most top-tier Cultivation resources.
Ye Yan truly had good fortune!
"Brother Yan, they're here for you."
Ye Qinghan grinned, "The Imperial Capital Academy is not like ordinary Sects. They are more cohesive and emphasize Legacy from generation to generation. If you can join, it will definitely be a good thing."
Ye Yan nodded, instinctively rubbing an ancient black ring on his hand, his face showing little expression.
Lin Changge, on the other hand, was looking around, as if waiting for someone.
That dashing Mysterious Woman in black still hadn't arrived?
"Tongtian Pavilion has arrived."
Just as he was thinking, three people walked over from a distance.
Seventh Pavilion Master, Hong Ye, and that Mysterious Woman in black holding a blade.
After Lin Changge and her eyes met, a smile involuntarily appeared on his lips.
In the past two days, Lin Changge had recalled her identity from his memories: young, skilled with a blade, and always dressed in black robes—the stunning Mysterious Woman...
Fengxuan Sect's number one Genius, Fang Ning!
"Back when I was in the Tianhuo Sect, I always wanted to spar with Fang Ning. I never thought that one day I would challenge her in this manner."
Lin Changge shook his head. Fate truly played tricks on people.
"Fang Ning?"
Elder Song's expression became slightly unpleasant when he saw her.
Fang Ning gave him a cold glance but did not speak.
Although it was the Spirit Array competition of Tianyin City's three great Families, with the influx of various forces, the situation became increasingly unpredictable.
Even those with slower reactions realized that the upcoming events would be anything but simple.
"Young Master Lin, these are three Grade 3 Medicinal Pills, Qi Restoration Pills, personally refined by Great Master Gu Hai. I specifically brought three for you all."
Hong Ye jogged over and handed one Medicinal Pill each to Lin Changge, Ye Qinghan, and Ye Yan.
Lin Changge looked up at Seventh Pavilion Master, who chuckled and said nothing.
"Thank you."
Lin Changge cupped his hands towards the distance.
This Seventh Pavilion Master had been intentionally looking after him. He would remember this favor.
"Great Master Gu Hai's work?"
Ye Hongtian was greatly surprised. He knew how expensive the Qi Restoration Pills refined by Great Master Gu Hai were. These were Grade 3 Medicinal Pills, which could quickly restore injuries after consumption.
The Tongtian Pavilion had previously returned the spiritual mine, and now they were giving Medicinal Pills. Why would they be so generous?
"Spirit Array activate!"
An old man announced loudly. He was Lu Yin, the City Lord of Tianyin City. Although he did not participate in the contention of the three great Families, he had always been highly respected, and everyone held him in awe.
As he spoke, the long-dormant Spirit Array rumbled into operation, with a large amount of Spiritual Qi surging within it like rolling tides.
For some reason, at the moment the Spirit Array was activated, Lin Changge felt a subtle craving within his body, as if something was attracting him from the unseen world.
Inside the Slaying Heaven Blade, the Mysterious Woman suddenly spoke, "Beneath the Spirit Array, there's the aura of an Ancient Secret Rune!"
Lin Changge's pupils glowed with fervor upon hearing this.
The Mysterious Woman had previously said that his Overlord Body was incomplete and needed to find nine Ancient Secret Runes. Each one he found would allow him to Cultivate a corresponding Overlord Body God Form.
He never expected there to be a hidden world beneath the Spirit Array.
No wonder so many forces had come!
The younger generation of the three great Families successively entered the Spirit Array.
The Spirit Array competition was simple and direct.
The Disciples first entered the Spirit Array to withstand its pressure. Dozens of them would be eliminated in turns, with the final eight participating in the concluding arena battles.
It was very simple, very direct.
The arena battles were not purely elimination matches, but rather everyone taking turns to spar. Lu Yin would personally decide which Family's Disciples were stronger and had more potential, and that Family would gain the right to use the Spirit Array.
"Lin Changge, you actually dare to come too?"
Liu Zheng was in the Spirit Array, preparing to sit down cross-legged, when he suddenly caught sight of Lin Changge. "A piece of trash, still daring to come and make up the numbers. It seems the Ye Family truly has no one left."
"Is it your turn to speak, trash?"
Ye Qinghan retorted, "Back then, you foolishly humiliated my brother-in-law and were almost crippled. If your father hadn't dragged you to Great Master Gu Hai for medicine, do you really think you'd still be standing here, lively and jumping?"
Liu Zheng's face darkened. In Tianyin City, they had all once lived in Lin Changge's shadow, but... that was only in the past.
"Yes, Liu Zheng was almost crippled, but fortunately, he recovered."
Chen Tianlong took over, his eyes narrowed. "But now, a true cripple is right here. His Bloodline is ruined, and all his Cultivation is lost. Ye Qinghan, do you hate your brother-in-law so much that you would expose his wounds in public?"
Normally, Ye Qinghan would have been enraged by that comment and immediately broken down.
But at this moment, his face was full of disdain. "You'll find out very soon."
A total of over thirty Disciples from the three great Families stood firm in the Spirit Array.
Every young person looked composed, as it was not easy to pass the first round and enter the top eight. No one dared to be careless.
Outside the Spirit Array.
Chen Chongshan smiled sinisterly, "Ye Hongtian, if any Disciples from your Ye Family make it into the final top eight, my son will personally take their lives. How about it, are you scared?"
"I am scared."
Ye Hongtian said loudly, "I'm afraid you only have two sons. Once they all die, you'll have no heir. Who will collect your corpse then?"
The two had originally been on good terms, but then the Chen Family's ambition was revealed, and Chen Hui's annulment of the engagement directly added fuel to the fire, leading to the current irreconcilable situation.
Chen Chongshan sneered, "Don't get cocky. It's about to be your Ye Family's moment of shame!"
The Spirit Array activated!
Terrifying oppressive force surged from all directions. The more than thirty Disciples within the Spirit Array instantly felt the overwhelming aura pressing down on their limbs and bones.
Although this was only a Grade 4 Spirit Array, its value to the three great Families was immeasurable, and all parties were putting in their utmost effort.
"Boring."
From the Imperial Capital Academy's side, a young man shook his head. "There were once two Geniuses in Tianyin City who could catch my eye: Ye Qingyue entered the Holy Land, and Lin Changge is already crippled. As for the others, I don't even have the slightest interest in looking at them again."
"You must always maintain a humble heart."
He Wen glanced at the young man and admonished, "Shi Yi, you must know that Yuan Country is very large, and it's not just Ye Qingyue and Lin Changge. People like Fang Ning, Su Yao, and others are also outstanding individuals from various Sects."
Shi Yi shrugged, saying nothing.
If his elder brother Shi Lang hadn't insisted that he come, he wouldn't have wanted to expend his energy on such a boring competition.
His goal was the Holy Land!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Two figures were repelled from the Spirit Array.
Some Disciples had already been eliminated.
Everyone looked closely and saw that both Disciples were from the Ye Family.
Liu Ying was the first to scoff, "Hahahaha, your Ye Family Disciples are truly weak."
"Who told the Ye Family to repeatedly cut other people's Cultivation resources and give them all to a cripple to recover? In the end, it was all for nothing. Serves them right!"
Chen Chongshan's lips curled into a smile, becoming even more excited.
