Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 2620: Chapter 2623: Spirit Origin Mirror

The reactions of the Five Great Families to Jiang Chen’s words were varied.

Lei Wenyuan and Lei Tingfeng’s expressions changed slightly, and their gaze towards Jiang Chen carried surprise and a hint of admiration.

The members of the Feng Family had coldness in their eyes, a sneering smile on their lips. Clearly, Jiang Chen’s actions yesterday had offended them, instantly shattering the Primordial Spirit Power of their three contestants, leaving them disgraced.

The Long Family members looked at Jiang Chen with a touch of surprise, and deep in their eyes flashed a hint of greed.

A faint mysterious vibration surrounded the Long Family members, clearly they were discussing something through sound transmission.

Huo Laiwang and Huo Langran’s expressions were somewhat gloomy, but there were no further remarks.

As for the Yan Family...

”Hmph! Using the Huo Family’s quota for the preliminary round, and now threatening the Huo Family, truly a white-eyed wolf!”

At the far right of the platform, Yan Chengxie coldly spoke.

”If the Huo Family is unwilling, he can use the Lei Family’s!”

Before Jiang Chen could reply, Lei Ling’er spoke discontentedly.

She genuinely hoped Jiang Chen would take action for the Lei Family. Her thoughts were simple; she already felt that friendly aura from Jiang Chen, even stronger now upon meeting him, which made her even more eager to stay with Jiang Chen.

If Jiang Chen represented the Lei Family in the competition, after returning from the Extraterritorial Battlefield, she could take Jiang Chen to the main clan, the space of the Lei Ming Beast Clan.

Yan Chengxie glanced at Lei Ling’er and said nothing more. He knew Lei Ling’er had an extraordinary status, and the Lei Ming Beast Clan wasn’t something the Yan Family could afford to provoke.

”Haha, so lively!”

An elderly voice sounded, and six figures appeared on the platform.

”Greetings, City Lord!”

The members from the five families rose and saluted.

”Little Princess?”

Jiang Chen looked at the newcomers with surprise.

The newcomers included four elders and two youths. Jiang Chen recognized five of them. Among the elders, one was Cheng Huang’er’s protector, Elder Feng, two were Jin Ang and Jin Ming, who had left three days prior, and the two young ones were naturally Cheng Huang’er and Yuan Chong.

Only the elder beside Cheng Huang’er was unfamiliar to Jiang Chen, but from everyone’s address, it was clear this person was Yuan Kui, the City Lord of Elixir Divine City.

Yuan Kui? Yuan Chong?

Jiang Chen glanced at Yuan Kui, then at Yuan Chong, seeming to understand why Cheng Huang’er was here.

”Little Princess?”

Jiang Chen’s call made the people of the Five Great Families momentarily pause. Fire Phoenix had seen Cheng Huang’er before and bowed in salute: ”Greetings to the Little Princess.”

”Greetings to the Little Princess!”

It was only now that the others from the five families reacted and bowed in greeting.

Though they provided elixirs to Canglan City, Cheng Huang’er was not someone they could interact with, being the daughter of the Great Emperor!

Just because of Hu Yiqiu and the Nether Kui Snake relation, Jiang Chen was more familiar with Cheng Huang’er than the others.

”Little Princess!?”

”Wow, that’s the Great Emperor’s most beloved youngest daughter?”

”So beautiful!”

”Truly a peerless beauty! Can be admired but not defiled!”

The onlookers around the square exclaimed in amazement, their gazes at Cheng Huang’er filled with admiration.

Cheng Huang’er nodded lightly at the five families, glanced at Jiang Chen, but said nothing, walking to the center spot left for Yuan Kui among the crowd.

Seeing this, the members from the Five Great Families glanced at Yuan Kui who was still standing there. The family heads of the five families rose, and the elders moved aside.

They didn’t know who accompanied, but knew moving to the side was certainly correct.

Although the Five Great Families held top positions in the Canglan Domain, they were nothing compared to Cheng Huang’er.

Several from the Huo Family, including Huo Laiwang, looked at Jin Ang and Jin Ming who came with Cheng Huang’er with surprise, their eyes flickering slightly as if contemplating something.

Seeing the space cleared, Yuan Kui didn’t hesitate, stepping over to sit beside Cheng Huang’er, while the remaining four spots were occupied by Jin Ang and the others, including Yuan Chong, who was only at the Void Refinement Realm.

The Five Great Families didn’t say anything about this; they knew Yuan Chong.

”Does the Little Princess have any instructions?”

After sitting down, Yuan Kui inquired of Cheng Huang’er.

Cheng Huang’er glanced at Jiang Chen among the Lei Family team and said calmly: ”The Alchemy Dao Competition is to deliver pill masters to the Extraterritorial Battlefield. Every one of the top five hundred pill masters may go to the Extraterritorial Battlefield, and each pill master is a precious asset of the Canglan Continent. Though the help of Dao Instruments means no deaths will happen, I hope no intentional serious harm occurs.”

”Haha, naturally!”

Yuan Kui responded with a light laugh.

”Young Jiang, you truly know how to stir trouble. Be wary of the Yan Family and the Feng Family, also the Nether Hall folks have arrived, the Qin Family knows your identity now. These forces seem intent on teaming up against you. The Little Princess has a special status and can’t intervene in your conflicts, be careful!”

A voice echoed in Jiang Chen’s mind, causing him to pause slightly. He glanced at Elder Feng, then at Cheng Huang’er, suddenly realizing.

Was Cheng Huang’er protecting me with her earlier words?

A warmth welled up inside him, and Jiang Chen lightly nodded towards Elder Feng and Cheng Huang’er.

”Everyone heard, no intentional serious harm to opponents.”

Seeing Cheng Huang’er had no further words, Yuan Kui spoke loudly: ”The top five hundred are present; where are the representatives of the Five Great Families?”

”Huo Family, Huo Langtian, Huo Qiong, Jiang Chen.”

Huo Langran announced loudly.

”Brother Jiang, come with me.”

Huo Qiong gestured to Jiang Chen, leaping towards the square.

Jiang Chen and Huo Langtian followed, the three landing at the front of the square.

”Lei Family, Lei Cheng...”

”Feng Family, Feng Yunxi...”

”Long Family, Longteng...”

”Yan Family, Yan Chengxie, Ming Yufeng...”

Family heads of the Five Great Families announced their participants for the competition, fifteen in total jumped to the front of the five hundred.

”Alright, all five hundred fifteen are present, let’s begin today’s competition. No need for me to repeat the rules, so let’s start the first event, a confrontation of Primordial Spirit Power.”

Yuan Kui shouted, waving his hand, sending a stream of light into the sky, instantly transforming into a giant mirror covering all those participating in the competition.

Ling Yuan Mirror, a Dao Instrument capable of simulating Primordial Spirit battles, injuries in such battles directly affect one’s body.

This was how Elixir Divine City managed to filtrate five hundred from thousands within a day.

Rumble, rumble!

Streams of Primordial Spirit Power shot out from the foreheads of the five hundred fifteen individuals, entering the Ling Yuan Mirror, and all participating pill masters closed their eyes.

Buzz, buzz, buzz!

The Ling Yuan Mirror trembled slightly, its smooth surface instantly divided into numerous small squares, each square containing two figures emerging.
