Chapter 63: The Family Head’s Calling in
The one in the highest spirits was nobody but Nangong Tingli at this very moment. After all, the victor was his son, the pride of the Nangong family. Although the contest was far from coming to an end, he was quite sure that Nangong family would seize the crown eventually.
As long as he captured the championship, the Nangong family would definitely be ranked number one in Galo.
Compared with Nangong Tingli, the heads of other families became sour-faced immediately, especially Qiuyuan Lishang, whose complexion was as livid as lead.
Murong Qingyan frowned as she observed the match on the stage. She was still pondering about something when a sound occurred in her sea of consciousness.
“Master, Nangong Ye is quite skilled at disguising his strength.”
Murong Qingyan started to exchange ideas using her own consciousness with Little Bai in the hidden space.
“Little Bai, you have also noticed that, haven’t you? Nangong Ye has been cheating everyone in his guise of a martial artist in the middle phase of Heartbeat Period while he already reached the maturation phase. No wonder he is acclaimed as a genius. What a young man of impressive martial attainments he is!”
Despite the fact they were all praiseful words, Murong Qingyan sounded so sarcastic.
“Humph! So what if he becomes a middle-phased martial artist of Heartbeat Period? Dear Master, you’re a lot more powerful than him. You see, after a merely month-long practice have you already reached the maturation phase of the Foundation Period. ”
Murong Qingyan stopped talking, her eyes shining faintly.
Since the contest between Nangong Ye and Qiuyuan Qi, the succeeding matches seemed rather insipid in the eyes of the audiences.
When the second round came to a close, all the candidates were selected for next round of the match, among whom Murong Qingyan was naturally included. All in all, she was reckoned to be a pretty good martial arts player among her peers.
With regard to the size of the group, it was impossible to finish the competition in a day, so the next round was scheduled for a second day.
After the contest ended, Murong Qingyan also returned to her small room. Compared with others who took part in the match, she was in a much better shape with no trace of fatigue on her face.
Throughout the contests this day, the one person present talked about most was Murong Qingyan except for Nangong Ye. Who would have expected such a good-for-nothing actually passed the competition on the first day and entered the third round of match when a number of players were knocked out. The result was totally beyond belief.
However, everyone believed it was only by luck that Murong Qingyan was able to enter the competition next day. All of them were waiting for the contests tomorrow to see how Murong Qingyan would make a fool of herself.
Murong Qingyan had no idea what those people thought of her. Even if she did, she would definitely not take them to heart.
Just as she was about to enter the space to continue her martial arts practice, someone came and told her the family head summoned her to the study.
When he finished, a sneer flitted over Murong Qingyan’s face.
He who came was surely ill-intentioned; with good intent he would never come.
She was well aware of Murong Xiong’s purpose of calling her in. obviously, it infuriated him that she participated in the family convention without permission.
She had no worries about that. Although she wasn’t Murong Xiong’s equal in strength now, there was no way for him to prevent her from competing in the competition tomorrow.
Murong Qingyan went to the study without delay.
