The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood

Qingyun Martial Field was an extremely spacious battlefield, one that was as large as about a dozen soccer fields.

The viewer seats around were already filled with people. The air was filled with excitement.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Three figures landed on the battlefield. Ye Mo and co were the first group to arrive.

Their arrivals invited a multitude of cheers. This was after all the Qingyun League, their home ground. At least half of the spectators were members of Qingyun League.

Cheering sounds resounded without stop. The three wore the same Qingyun League chief elect uniform.

Ye Mo stood in front with no weapons on hand. With his shoulder-length hair, pitch-black pupils, delicate yet mature face, and a graceful bearing around himself, he became the most eye-catching of the three.

Within Qingyun League, Ye Mo had a high prestige. In one year, he transformed from a new recruit into the chief elect of Xuan Ji Sub-League.

As for Chen Zhan and Lei Xiao, they were both standing behind Ye Mo. Chen Zhan had the Jinxiu Sword hanging on his back, while Lei Xiao had the Thunderfire Warhammer on his back.

“You have the home ground advantage indeed. What a loud cheer. Unfortunately, regardless of how loud the cheer, without strength, you will end up eliminated.” Suddenly, three figures leisurely walked into the battlefield from the entrance.

Cao Zheng was in the lead, while behind him were Chu Ge and Li Mengli.

Ye Mo frowned, but ignored those words. With Chen Zhan and Lei Xiao, he headed towards the waiting area.

Right after the three representatives of the kingdom arrived, three figures descended from the sky and slowly landed on the ground. From their outfits, these were the three chief elects of Wushuang League.

All three of them had an air of arrogance around them, especially the woman leading them. She had a large body-built, and a huge saber hung on her back. Her entire person seemed to be filled with unending power.

And from presence, it was clear she had already reached the Heaven’s Gate Realm.

“Ye Mo, that woman is Wushuang League’s Zhao Huan. In Wushuang League, she was known for her ferociousness. She may be a woman, but she is born with an extremely powerful physical strength. The saber behind her is the Firedragon Saber, rumored to be a high-grade Spirit Weapon,” said Lei Xiao. He was obviously an expert in information gathering as he had already did his research in each of the participants.

“A Heaven’s Gate Realm powerhouse coupled with a high-grade Spirit Weapon. She is indeed a troublesome opponent,” Ye Mo glanced at the three. Next, three other figures descended from the sky as well. They were the three chief elects of Tiandi League.

The one in lead was a man with a sturdy-built. His presence was extraordinary, having reached late-stage True Energy Realm.

But the person who had truly grabbed Ye Mo’s attention was the chief elect behind that person. He was extremely thin and frail, and only had the height of about 130 centimeters. He was a person whose existence could be easily neglected.

“Ye Mo, the smallest guy is Luo Feng of Tiandi League, and although he looks unremarkable, he is the most difficult opponent among them. His speed is extremely fast, and is extremely decisive in what he does,” Lei Xiao said with a solemn expression.

All 12 participants seemed to have arrived at the same time. Once again, the field was filled with a tumultuous applause. Numerous pair of eyes filled with excitement were focused on the 12 figures.

One could say that the 12 on the battlefield represented the peak strength of the younger generation in Tianwu Kingdom.

As for who the final victor would be, nobody could say for sure.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The sound of bell ringing reverberated through the air. The bell seemed to have a calming effect as everyone immediately calmed down.

Ye Mo glanced over at the VIP seats. Those were the seats that had been arranged for the important ministers of the kingdom and the higher ups of the three leagues.

The VIP seats were filled with people as well. Each of them had exceptionally formidable presence. Some of them were even enveloping themselves with their True Energy so as to prevent others from having a clear look at them.

Ye Mo wanted to get a clear look at whether the emperor was present, and if Qi Ying was present. Unfortunately, he could not get a clear look.

“Everyone, I am Cao Zhengchun, the commander of the imperial guards. Before the competition starts, I would like to announce something. Something has cropped out, causing the emperor to be unable to attend this league war. But since he had promised to come, he has decided to increase the reward. Apart from the Cosmos Qi, the winner will also be rewarded with a mortal level body tempering martial technique, the Thundergod Armor,” a clear voice resounded thorough the field.

This voice gave off an imposing feeling, a feeling that nobody could ever say no to this voice.

With the announcement, the field became filled with voices of discussion.

Originally, the presence of the emperor was considered as an auspicious sign. Getting the chance to lay eyes on the master of the Tianwu Kingdom was considered to be something of great fortune.

But the emperor ended up not coming. Instead, a mortal level martial technique was offered as a reward. A martial technique at this level was one that was extremely rare in the kingdom.

Shortly after, everyone sank into silence again.

Everyone was clear that although the emperor was not here, the league war would still proceed.

“As per the previous convention, the competition will be split into two rounds. The first will be the group battle within the Heaven Origin Mirror.” Right after he said that, a huge mirror appeared midair. Within the mirror, an area of snowy mountains could be seen.

“This is the Heaven Origin Mirror?” Ye Mo said in astonishment.

Ye Mo once heard from his master that the Heaven Origin Mirror was a Bejeweled Weapon. After channeling one’s energy in it, one would be able to release rays of light. Any warriors with insufficient strength would be directly sucked into the world within the mirror, forever trapped within.

“Yes, that is the Heaven Origin Mirror, one of the Bejeweled Weapons that the emperor always keep by his side,” Chen Zhang said with a nod.

“As for the rules for the first round, after entering the world within the Heaven Origin Mirror, those killed or incapacitated will be directly transported out. That will count as an elimination from the round. And once more than two of a group were eliminated, the entire group would be eliminated. This round would last for an hour. Do you all understand the rules?” Cao Zhengchun’s voice resounded again.

The group from the kingdom seemed to have already know about the rules as they all had treacherous grins on their faces. As for the chief elects of the three leagues, all of them looked astonished.

“The purpose of this mode of competition is to test your teamwork. Even if your opponents consist of Heaven’s Gate Realm powerhouses, so long as you can eliminate two other members of their group, the Heaven’s Gate Realm powerhouses would still be eliminated,” Lei Xiao analyzed.

“But it isn’t easy to eliminate the two weaker members of the group,” Ye Mo said with a frown. He glanced over at the six chief elects of the other two leagues and found that they were already on high alert.

Evidently, before the round had even started, everyone was already calculating the strength of their opponents, making plans to first eliminate the weakest group.
