The Legend Of Frozen Sovereign
Chapter 17: The difference is not far enough

The selection process took place very quickly considering that the real competition was going to be held tomorrow, and Xuan Yu managed to pass the selection easily without much excessive pointing of strength, on average it was only the control over the strength as well as the unique ability of his Origin Qi that was heavily ice-heavy.

Nor did he directly return to the inn to get ready with the competency that would take place tomorrow, he said, but he wanted to see the competition taking place between the sects taking part and doing a little calculation considering there was a high chance he would meet an affiliated young cultivator.

“Fire Blood Sect who had looked for trouble with me earlier, Flood Dragon Sect, Green Stone Sect, Golden Sword Sect, and some sects who had other names. But the many four sects that I call are worthy of attention, plus each one of them is a third-rate sect.”

Xuan Yu felt a little pressured by the presence of these sects, where he was sure that each one of the participants affiliated with the sect must have strong talents and techniques, after all they must be supported by skilled resources and mentors.

Ever since he had set foot in the cultivation world he had fought fiercely was just a bunch of Origin Beasts, it could even be said that the fight in the tournament selection was the first time he had fought with a fellow Origin Master.

He also did not aim for victory completely, because what he wanted from entering this competition was to hone his skills, and look for weaknesses and shortcomings that he had to improve, to improve, after all this was the only way to solidify the foundation before breaking through to the next level.

“As I expected, the Golden Sword Sect and the Flood Dragon Sect have always dominated the first and second positions, as well as their best younger generation, Long Chang and Ji Tangkong were very different from the younger generation of the previous era, even they were predicted to start being glimpsed by the great powers in the Four Sacred Continents.”

“But the younger generation of the Fire Blood Sect and the Green Stone Sect are also not inferior, as the competition between these sects is quite interesting to note.”

“Heh! what is worthy? precisely the main tournament is tomorrow, because I am tired of this kind of arrangement, moreover the result of his victory is always certain, I am more hopeful with fierce competence.”

“You are absolutely right, hopefully there is an interesting spectacle tomorrow because this competition is actually boring.”

Xuan Yu secretly heard the audience talk and found many interesting things, but he never expected that the standards of the powerful sects in the Han Empire were monotonous, either, and if you look closely it is true that the number of spectators who came today is quite small considering how many visitors Green River City has.

Since this was a special competition between the sects of the Han Empire, the time only lasted for this one day only, and the time will soon be night so this is the final round that brings together Long Chang and Ji Tangkong from the Flood Dragon Sect and Golden Sword Sect.

‘But usually under these circumstances, they had always prepared their last card at a crucial moment, so it was possible that these two might not be the strongest among the affiliated young cultivators.’

“Heh... let's just watch it first.” Xuan Yu smiled with a calm expression without being distracted.

....

“Prepare in position, and start!!”

Aushhh!!

Long Chang and Ji Tangkong advanced together without the slightest hesitation, they instantly exerted all their strength to achieve victory.

The clash between the violence and the sharp sword gave rise to a noise that flowed like a chaotic melody, their movements fast to the point that some of the substandard spectators had difficulty keeping up with their speed.

It could be said that both of them were like immortal enemies moving in the wheel of destiny, Also both of them were famous for embodying the fight between physical strength and skill in using swords, also because these two Sects had always been recorded .the first position and the loser is always second.

Most of the audience who had gotten used to this situation was quite bored because in the end it was just that - that was the case, plus there was not the slightest bit of eager passion between the competition of the younger generation.

Meanwhile in a special private room where the leader of the Yuanlong Tower of the Han Empire branch, Xu Fang where he was with a guest wearing a bamboo hat watched the fight between Long Chang and Ji Tangkong, was present, and it is clear that they do not put high expectations with the spectacle that makes them bored.

“Do you really want to see this simple match, Miss?” xu Fang asked with a strange expression trying to hide.

“Sure, although their abilities are too low and there are no exclamations, I have my own reasons for coming here,” replied the guest in the voice of a young woman who seemed cold and mysterious.

“B-All right then.”

Xu Fang was troubled by this, he never expected that a core disciple as well as a direct disciple of the Great Elder of Saint Gate to be far away from the Four Sacred Continents here, he had never expected, not to mention his goal was very mysterious and it was very difficult to resist because he carried a 'mark' which was the authority of one of the Great Elders of Saint Gate.

‘Damn... I just want to run my job quietly, and wait for the opportunity to return to the center of Yuanlong Tower.’

At the same time the fight between Long Chang and Ji Tangkong had ended with the victory of Long Chang from the Flood Dragon Sect, where the battle marks as well as the injuries they received showed just how intense the fight was.

Not to mention the fight between them spent over an hour, so this showed how intense the fight was. It also explained that the Han Empire did not lack strength for their younger generation, let alone if it came from the four strongest sects in the empire.

Xuan Yu who saw the fight was also quite amazed, but unfortunately just like the spectators who often saw their fights, he did not have high expectations about the competition tomorrow.

Like he sees something good but feels bland because there is nothing interesting, plus the goal of following the competition is to hone skills.

‘The difference is not far enough, but why do I feel that tomorrow will be so different?’ Xuan Yu pondered a little about what was going to happen tomorrow, and returned to the inn to get ready.

Tap..tap.

“!!!”

On the way home, Xuan Yu suddenly felt something strange and turned his back to look at a young man who was walking with slow but almost noiseless footsteps, also the silence created around seemed very mysterious as if he was fused with the air around.

‘Heh... it looks like tomorrow will really be an amazing day.’
