Chapter 51: Receive Number Plate, Xu Family’s Three Elders

Xu Zhengchun’s father, Xu Qingjun, was in charge of the treasures of the Xu family. His status was slightly higher than that of Xu Qingliu’s.

The treatment that Xu Zhengchun had received since childhood was no worse than that of the manor master’s grandson, Xu Zhengxin. He was very talented and had already advanced to Intermediate Mystical Warrior stage at the age of fifteen.

There were few direct descendants in the Xu family. Moreover, Xu Zhengxin was not the type of person who liked to form groups. He was even not as famous as Xu Zhengchun. Xu Zhengchun seemed to be the leader among the younger generation of the Xu family. Even the youngsters who were older than him called him ‘Elder Brother Zhengchun’ to be closer to him.

Xu Zhengming puckered his lips in the direction of Xu Yang and said, “Elder Brother Zhengchun, the bastard left by Xu Qingyuan has a lot of guts now. How dare he mock me! Do you know that the bastard has beaten Zhengfei up until his cultivation has been crippled entirely?”

Xu Zhengchun’s handsome face turned gloomy and he said, “Did you just say Xu Yang? I have been thinking about taking revenge for Zhengfei for quite some time. However, I did not have the time as I isolated myself recently to cultivate in order to beat Xu Zhengxin at the Grand Family Tournament. Is the trash here to participate in the Grand Family Tournament?”

Xu Zhengming nodded and said, “Yes. I must teach him a lesson and let them know that trash will always be trash. I must not let him feel that he has surpassed us after he has obtained some opportunities.”

Xu Zhengchun nodded and asked, “Which uncle is hosting the tournament this time?”

Xu Zhengming laughed and said, “Elder Brother Zhengchun, don’t you know that this kind of task would always be hosted by my father.”

“Uncle Qingliu? That’s great!” Xu Zhengchun smirked and said, “Tell Uncle Qingliu to put me and that trash in one group. I must let that trash have an unforgettable day.”

“There is no need for Elder Brother Zhengchun to settle this kind of trash.” Xu Zhengming wanted to take credit for beating Xu Yang up. “Don’t worry. My father has arranged for the first group to be a match between me and Xu Yang. If I don’t beat him up and ensure that he is bedridden for at least three months, I’ll disown myself!”

Xu Zhengchun did not even care about Xu Yang. He nodded when he heard Xu Zhengming’s words, “That’s good. It is good for you to punish that trash by yourself in front of everyone. Zhengming, I will be spectating at the side when the time comes.”

The two people were chatting happily as they walked to the gymnasium in the backyard together.

The gymnasium was spacious. Its width and length were both one hundred feet respectively. There was a wooden platform with a diameter of ten feet built at the center of the gymnasium. The platform was where the tournament would take place.

“It’s time!”

“The Grand Family Tournament will start now!”

Xu Qingyuan in a silk robe stood on the platform and shouted loudly, “Now, all of the Xu family’s youngsters, listen to the orders!”

“Queue up and take the number plates one by one!”

“Divine No. 1, Xu Zhengming!”

“Divine No. 2, Xu Zhengyuan!”

“Divine No. 3…”

As Xu Qingliu announced loudly, the Xu family’s youngsters queued up and took their own number plates.

A pergola was set up long ago on the northside of the gymnasium. A group of people slowly entered via the entrance of the gymnasium and walked into the pergola.

The person in front was a spirited old man with grey hair. He looked at the long queue and sighed, “These children are the future of our Xu family.”

“You are right, Manor Master.” An energetic old man behind him said. “We feel rest assured when we see them.”

The first old man turned his head and looked at the several old men behind him. He said, “It’s been a long time since we brothers gathered together.”

“Yes. We are all busy cultivating as we hope to break through to live longer.” The third old man stroked his beard and said. He was short and thin.

These few people were the strongest people in the Xu family. The first old man was the manor master of the family, Xu Changling, and his cultivation was in the Pinnacle Mystical Grandmaster stage. The following two were the second elder and the third elder. Their cultivations were both in the Pinnacle Mystical Master stage. They were one step away from the Mystical Grandmaster stage.

Although Xu Changling was the oldest among them, there were less wrinkles on his face. His body was not as rickety as theirs, and he was much tougher and stronger.

The aging speed of Xu Changling was much slower than theirs as his cultivation was one stage higher.

“Please take a seat, Father and my two uncles.” The eldest son of Xu Changling, Xu Qinglu, ordered someone to bring three high chairs and invited them to sit down.

“Qinglu’s cultivation is quite good. He has almost caught up to me.” The second elder of the Xu family sighed. It seemed that he was sighing with the thought of the elapsed time.

“Why don’t I see Zhengxin?” The third elder of the Xu family looked around and asked.

“Uncle, Zhengxin has to participate in the tournament too. He is queuing up to take the number plates.” Xu Qinglu answered.

“Hey. I have seen Zhengxin grow since he was just a young boy. He is a clever boy and he might be the champion this time.” The Second Elder of the Xu family chuckled and said.

“Not necessarily.” The third elder said with disapproval. “My grandson, Zhengchun, is not that bad either. He has reached the Intermediate Mystical Warrior stage at the age of fifteen.”

“Okay. Stop arguing about these things.” Xu Changling said, “It is the fight between the youngsters. We are not the ones to decide who would win or lose.”

On the platform, in the middle of the gymnasium, Xu Qingliu announced loudly, “All Xu family’s youngsters, immediately queue up in two rows according to your numbers. One row for the Divine group and one row for the Earth group.”

Xu Yang realized that when he looked at the number plate in his hand, two words were written on it, Earth One. He smirked and walked to the front of the queue on the right.

“Is that Xu Yang?”

“It seems so. He is Earth No.1.”

“That is terrible. Divine No.1 holder is Xu Zhengming who has already formed his Mystical Core. It is said that he has conflict with Xu Yang.”

The whispers were all heard by Xu Yang but he was not affected. He stood still at the front of the right hand side queue.

It was Xu Zhengming who was standing at the front of the left hand side queue. He was haughtily looking at Xu Yang. His lips moved and he spoke with a very low voice, “Trash, be prepared for your death. It’s too late for you to leave now.”

Xu Yang was not bothered to entertain the buzzing fly, he closed his eyes to rest. In Xu Zhengming’s view, Xu Yang’s behavior was a sign of showing his fear. He sneered and his ironic words continued flowing.

After everyone was in line, Xu Qingliu looked at Xu Yang and Xu Zhengming who were at the forefront of the two rows. A strange smile flashed on his face indistinctly and he announced loudly, “The tournament will begin now! The first group, Xu Zhengming, Divine No.1 and Xu Yang, Earth No.1!”

In the pergola on the north side, Xu Changling, who was sitting in the middle, suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes gleamed momentarily.

“Xu Yang? Which Xu Yang? Is it the…” The Second Elder of the Xu family was surprised.

“Yes. It is that bastard. Xu Qingyuan’s child.” The third elder of the Xu family snorted and said, “I don’t know what the organizer is thinking. How can a deserted member of the family be able to participate in the Grand Family Tournament.”

Xu Qinglu frowned and said, “Third Elder, that’s too much. Although my younger brother was reckless at that time, he had his own reasons. His children are innocent! Xu Yang is also one of our Xu family’s descendants.”

“Too much? How am I too much?” The third elder of the Xu family said angrily. “If it were not for Xu Qingyuan’s arrogance, how would the miserable disaster have happened and how would your fourth uncle have died so early? ”

“Enough!” Xu Changling smacked the armrest of the chair and said furiously.

There was suddenly silence in the pergola with the prestigious aura of the manor master. The third elder of the Xu family muttered in a low voice, “Pfft, let’s see how the trash with an eight-extreme physique is going to embarrass himself.”
