Chapter 42 – Fighting the Clan with the Clan (Requesting for Catch-up Collection Investment)

Chapter 42: Using the family to counterbalance the clan (Seek to catch up on reading collection investment)

Hou Mingyu slowly walked in, and the crowd rose again to bow and salute.

Although the power of the East Heavenly Royal Family was not as strong as the Spirit Martial Sect, the visitor was the young prince of the East Heavenly Royal Family, which was even more weighty than this silver-robed elder of the Spirit Martial Sect!

Looking at Hou Mingyu stealing his thunder, Ba Li’s face didn’t look so good, but he could only hold back his anger and swallow it in his stomach.

This Spirit Martial Sect silver-robed elder of his own was really not as good as this Eastern Heavenly King’s Palace young prince.

After all, there were still hundreds of silver-robed elders in the Spirit Martial Sect, but there were only a few Little Princes of the Eastern Heavenly King’s Mansion.

As for the few teenagers behind Ba Li, their eyes were also full of envy when they looked at Hou Mingyu.

”What’s so godly about it, if you weren’t born in the Eastern Heavenly King’s Mansion, you wouldn’t be a piece of shit!”
“Young Prince’s great presence is truly a blessing for our Hua Qing Mansion!”

The one who stood up and spoke was Xia Yi.

The East Heavenly Royal House, was the royal family of the Great Wilderness who had been personally appointed as a king, and was considered to be an official person of the Great Wilderness.

And since the Hua Qing Mansion’s Mistress also belonged to the royal family’s forces, he naturally had to treat the young prince with respect.

As the Mansion Master had stood up to speak, the other families naturally rose immediately to extend their welcome.

Hou Mingyu just waved his hand extremely casually.

“My lord is just here to swim in the mountains and happened to learn that the Huaqing Prefecture’s family event has begun, so I came to take a look, so I don’t know if all of you are welcome?”

“Of course welcome!”

“It is a blessing for our Hua Qing Mansion that the young prince is visiting us!”

“Please take a seat, Little Lord!”

“Come on, prepare a table for Your Highness!”

Cui Yongzhou was also out of temper, and immediately said curtly.

Hou Mingyu only scanned the field for a few moments before he saw Lin Xuan and his party, but he only looked at them before withdrawing his gaze.

“Hehe, it’s fine for this gongzi to casually take a seat.”

The words were so, but Hou Mingyu was walking straight up to the high seat, sitting on the seat that Cui Yongzhou had arranged for himself, while Dabiao was standing beside Hou Mingyu.

Passing Form realm powerhouses as guards, this was the depth of the Eastern Heavenly King’s Mansion!
Countless clans were looking at Hou Mingyu adoringly, while many of the clans’ young ladies had their eyes full of spring and were pretending to squirm, wanting to use this to attract Hou Mingyu’s attention.

But Hou Mingyu had seen a lot of beautiful women in the Eastern State, and was naturally uninterested in these rouge and vulgar powders.

“Hahaha, today, our Hua Qing Mansion has come to the Spirit Martial Sect’s Elder Ba, and even more so, the Eastern Heavenly King’s Mansion’s Young Prince, it is truly the fortune of my Hua Qing Mansion!”

The family event officially began, but the one who got up to speak was not Cui Yongzhou, instead, it was the Mansion Master Xia Yi.

It was because the Family Extravaganza was associated with the Hua Qing Mansion.

After warmly welcoming both Ba Li and Hou Mingyu, Xia Yi changed his expression to a slightly heavy one.

“As you all are aware, our Hua Qing Mansion has been in a slump for the past few decades in terms of the family trials.”

“We’ve been at the bottom of the eighteen Prefecture’s Grand Competition for twenty-five consecutive years!”

This sentence caused all the clans present to fall silent, and even many of them had already sighed and sighed.

“Father, what does this mean? What is the Eighteen House Grand Competition, and why is it at the bottom again for twenty-five consecutive years?”

Lin Fan, who was sitting beside Lin Xuan, looked a little uncertain.

The other third generations were also extremely curious.

Because they were all attending this family event for the first time, they knew nothing about the family event that had been held, and they didn’t even know what this family event was used for.

“Hehe, this Family Extravaganza we’re having right now is actually mainly for the purpose of selecting the family that can go and participate in the Eighteen House Competition for the Hua Qing Mansion.”

Lin Wen smiled and stroked his beard as he explained.

“What is the Eighteen Prefecture Grand Competition?” Lin Changan asked curiously.

“We have eighteen prefectures in the Eastern State, every five years, the Eastern State Lord in conjunction with the Eastern Heavenly King’s Mansion will organize the Eighteen Prefectures Grand Competition, not only as a way to determine the distribution of resources for each prefecture, but also to select talents for the Imperial Family, and our Huaqing Prefecture, in the previous five sessions, was at the bottom of the list, either sixteen or seventeen, and there was even a time when it was the last place. ”

Lin Yang explained to the crowd in a slightly helpless manner.

A kind of teenagers and young girls were all sucking in a breath of cool air, they had thought that the Hua Qing Mansion would already be great, but they didn’t expect that the Hua Qing Mansion would actually be this bad when they took it out!
“I see.” Lin Fan nodded slightly and didn’t know what he was thinking.

“Hehe, there are still half a year left before the Eighteen House Competition, if you guys work hard now, you might also be able to shine at the Eighteen House Competition.”

Lin Xuan said with a bland smile.

The Eighteen Prefectures Grand Competition was not simply a grand competition, but rather a grand maneuver taken by the Great Desolate Imperial Family.

Lin Xuan had learned at the Jixi Academy that the Great Desolate Imperial Family was now on a downward spiral since the old emperor of the True Martial God Realm had died of an injury a hundred years ago.

Coupled with the strong rise of a sect in Kyoto known as the Divine Sect, it was now also trending to be unstoppable, and was even vaguely pressing the imperial family!
God’s religion, a very mysterious sect, not only is the Great Wasteland five sects of the first, or many sects of the main sect, the Great Wasteland thirteen states, there are a lot of sects are the only God’s religion horse look forward to!

In order to counteract the Sect of God, the Great Wilderness Royal Family specially instructed the major states of the state government to organize the government examination, in order to give the Great Wilderness Royal Family to cultivate talents, and select a strong family to counteract the sects!

This is the royal family’s plan to use the family to counteract the sect!
The royal family was in decline and was no longer able to manage the Divine Sect, so they could only rely on cultivating an equally powerful force to fight against the Divine Sect.

As for the remaining four major sects, the Thunder Sound Temple in the Western State claims to be untainted by the world, the Ice and Snow Great Sect in the Northern State does not go out of the Northern State, and the only other sects are the Flying Cloud Palace in the Southern State and the Spirit Martial Sect in the Eastern State.

But the Flying Cloud Palace is now wavering, as for the Spirit Martial Sect, it actually got a little close to the Divine Sect!
This led to the royal family not having the idea of cultivating the clan, and simply did the opposite, directly choosing to integrate the power of the family.

Lin Xuan knew all of this, but Lin Xuan also only just knew that there were some things that it was just fine to know, there was no need to pass them on.

Lin Xuan’s words made Lin Ao, Lin Changan and the others were all a bit enthusiastic, if they could really go to the Eastern Land to show off their skills, it would really be a great thing.

Lin Xuan looked at the fist-pumping Lin Changan several people and also smiled faintly.

These few little fellows, with their current strength to go to a competition, that was purely and simply looking for abuse!
In the Eastern State’s Eighteen Prefectures Grand Competition, there was no lack of super geniuses that would even appear on that kind of Dragon Phoenix Heavenly Pride Ranking!
But it was also fortunate that this competition was divided into several types.

The young and the old have both.

Young people are mainly under the age of twenty-two, as for the older generation, it is not limited to the age, completely by virtue of strength to win!
The final ranking was based on the overall score.

And, the older generation also took up half of those scores, Lin Xuan remembered that the guys who went to the Huaqing Mansion last time were abused to death, and it seemed like there was Cui Yongzhou and Bai Lao ……
