"Haha,
At this moment, all eyes once again focused on Jiang Wushang, because they were truly curious about what realm Chu Feng had achieved.
To the Dragon Daoist's question, Jiang Wushang simply smiled faintly. "
When Jiang Wushang said these words, it was like a thunderclap on a clear day. The entire venue fell silent, the only sound being the sharp intakes of breath as people gasped.
Not to mention everyone else present, even the Dragon Daoist's expression froze. Immediately after, a look of unexpected shock surfaced on his aged face.
Because Jiang Wushang had indeed given them an answer that far exceeded their expectations.
At this moment, they seemed to understand why even the proud and incredibly arrogant Jiang Wushang now showed such respect to Chu Feng, a peer of the same generation.
After this, the banquet continued, but no one mentioned Chu Feng again. It was as if, imperceptibly, people had developed a fear of him.
And with not many days left before the banquet, more and more groups of people who did not originally belong to the Nine Provinces Continent entered its territory, ultimately arriving at the
The long-awaited Assembly of Ten Thousand Clans was finally about to begin.
The Assembly of Ten Thousand Clans was a grand gathering jointly organized by all the royal clans of the Eastern Land, held almost every year. The location was usually set within one of the most powerful royal clans.
This year was an exception. The reason it was handed over to the Jiang Dynasty was not because the Jiang Dynasty was formidable, but because the continent where the Jiang Dynasty resided had a remarkable figure—the Dragon Daoist.
Although it was called the Assembly of Ten Thousand Clans, in reality, only a few hundred royal clans participated each year. The main purpose of this assembly was to foster relations between the clans and, incidentally, to assess the strengths and weaknesses of each clan, thereby determining the degree of respect they would receive.
Therefore, the events at the Assembly were quite simple. Besides socializing, there were sparring matches to test strength. The most eye-catching matches were invariably between the younger generation of powerhouses, as they represented the future might of a royal clan.
This year's Assembly of Ten Thousand Clans proceeded as planned. As the Jiang Dynasty had anticipated, Jiang Wushang, fighting on their behalf, became the most surprising dark horse, stunning people from all corners of the Eastern Land and various continents.
A young man not only possessed a cultivation at the eighth level of Heaven Martial but also wielded an Emperor-grade bloodline. What did this mean? It meant this young man had limitless potential for martial cultivation and was destined to achieve great things.
Under his leadership, the Jiang Dynasty was bound to rise. Not only would they overshadow these clans that had fled to the Eastern Land, but the royal clans of the Eastern Sea would also be trampled underfoot before long. In fact, it was not impossible for them to even gain a foothold in the entire Eastern Sea, perhaps even entering that legendary Martial Holy Land.
Because an Emperor-grade bloodline was a power completely superior to the King-grade bloodline—a legendary power that was inherently destined to surpass everyone present.
However, things did not go entirely as imagined. Just as Jiang Wushang, leveraging the power of his Emperor-grade bloodline, was about to claim the title of strongest among the younger generation at this Assembly, he encountered a formidable foe whose name was unheard of before.
This opponent was also a bloodline bearer of a royal clan, and his age was only just past twenty, barely a few years older than Jiang Wushang. Yet he possessed a cultivation realm that Jiang Wushang could not see through. No matter what methods Jiang Wushang employed, he could not suppress this person.
This person was named
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
At this moment, on the combat platform, the battle between Jiang Wushang and Gao Peng continued. As Jiang Wushang's offensive grew more intense, the clash between them became increasingly fierce. Even veteran powerhouses at the peak of Heaven Martial felt immense pressure, privately wondering if they themselves would be a match for these two youngsters if they stepped into the ring.
"Damn it! I refuse to believe I can't defeat you today!" After exhausting all his methods, Jiang Wushang still could not gain the upper hand, filling him with rage. From the moment they crossed blows, he had felt as though the opponent was merely toying with him, never taking him seriously.
"Ha!" Suddenly, Jiang Wushang let out a mighty shout. A golden, majestic character for "Emperor" surfaced on his forehead. Simultaneously, the aura of his entire being surged and skyrocketed at this moment. A unique imperial majesty emanated from his body, intimidating all directions.
"An Emperor-grade bloodline! I'm seeing it again. This presence is indeed far above the King-grade bloodline."
"Incredible! The Jiang Dynasty kept a low profile for so many years, and now they've truly made a stunning appearance! They've actually produced an Emperor-grade bloodline bearer. They are destined to rise in the future, and no one will be able to stop them."
Watching Jiang Wushang unleash his Emperor-grade bloodline, the leaders of the various royal clans were all filled with admiration, their faces showing a mix of envy and jealousy. Simply because of Jiang Wushang's existence, they now had to view the Jiang Dynasty in a new light, even secretly resolving to befriend the Jiang Dynasty.
"The Jiang Dynasty's brat has certainly made a stunning debut. However, that Gao Peng from the Gao Clan cannot be underestimated either. This boy has never revealed his true cultivation from the start. Even I cannot see through his cultivation. I wonder what level he has actually reached." An expert from a royal clan at the ninth level of Heaven Martial spoke with great solemnity.
"Indeed. The Gao Clan—no one has ever heard of this royal clan before. And this Gao Peng, from the moment he entered the ring until now, has been hiding his strength. He never unleashed any overwhelming power, yet he could utterly defeat his opponents. He hasn't suffered a single defeat along the way."
"Even now, with Jiang Wushang unleashing an Emperor-grade bloodline, this boy remains completely unperturbed. With such courage, he is certain to become a major figure in the future."
By now, people were not only stunned by Jiang Wushang's performance; almost everyone present had also become interested in Gao Peng. Although Gao Peng's display was not as dazzling as Jiang Wushang's, it was equally beyond people's expectations.
Most importantly, the clan Gao Peng belonged to seemed even less noticeable than the Jiang Dynasty. It was the first time almost everyone had heard that there was actually a royal clan called the Gao Clan in the Eastern Land.
