Chapter 1014: Chapter 270 The Backyard is on Fire? (1/3)

"Heavenly Demon Sword Intent? It seems you’re quite heavily corrupted like the fragments in the Tianyuan Realm."

An Jing naturally swept his gaze over everyone, but the chip locked onto that young man in a white robe—incidentally, the seventh-generation chip permissions An Jing obtained were from Xuandu, directly locking onto the opponent, starting a facial comparison, and identifying the identity.

[Zhou Changhe]

An unremarkable name, his age is twenty-seven, although his strength is at the peak of Foundation Establishment and is already extremely excellent, he is considered to be on the older side among the competing ’young generation’—only because the average lifespan in Tianyuan Realm is high, hence the face appears youthful, without seeming out of place.

Similarly, apart from a few societal movements against demons in the wilderness, he has no particularly notable achievements, though occasionally he has impressive performances, defeating many wilderness demons and tribulation cultivators. But such performances are quite common, at least in the current four-city competition arena where Heaven’s Chosen gather, it can only be described as commonplace.

Excellent, but not outstanding.

From any angle, the opponent seems like a very inconspicuous person, if anything is to be said, he looks very gentle and refined, a very calm person.

However, An Jing, who knew in advance that the opponent was unusual, could sense that apart from the sword intent eroded by the Heavenly Demon, there was a unique feeling in the person.

And this unique feeling, is somewhat similar to his own Divine Intention... Or should we say, Fate Pattern?

"Interesting."

An Jing no longer paid extra attention; he had already remembered the opponent’s name and aura. No matter how the opponent alters his appearance and hides his aura in the Ancient Immortal Ruins, he definitely couldn’t deceive An Jing.

"I feel a bit like I’m the villain eyeing others’ fortunes."

An Jing mocked Subdue Evil in his heart: "Are you sure it’s Heavenly Demon corruption? I’m not doubting your ability, but we shouldn’t wrongly accuse the innocent."

"Absolutely sure. An Jing, I am entirely confident."

Subdue Evil was incredibly confident: "Even from thousands of miles away, I can smell the taste of the Heavenly Demon. The sword intent demonic energy on this little guy isn’t heavy, and even for this world, it’s considered normal pollution, inspections couldn’t detect it, but I can sense that the strand of demonic energy is extremely active."

"Even if this guy hasn’t been bewitched by the Heavenly Demon, under the influence of demonic energy, he’s definitely a dangerous figure."

Since Subdue Evil was so certain, An Jing wouldn’t say more.

Anyway, after catching the opponent in the Ancient Immortal Ruins, everything will be revealed.

Once An Jing’s Sword Qi rose, the hidden rivalry among the contestants gradually ceased.

With the chief being confirmed, whoever comes second or third no longer matters.

At this moment, a large number of Spiritual Network Navy and media within Xuanye City also began to exert effort—in Nian Quan’s plan, with the strong support of Third Middle School, a large amount of news and discussions praising An Xuan’s strength were released. Such tactics to build momentum are very classic but remain effective.

In the promotion within Xuanye City, An Xuan was directly announced as the chief candidate for the Four Cities Competition, the most talented figure in centuries—and this is not creation from nothing but based on records and videos of a true strong person.

Mysterious origin, powerful strength, Immortal God Inheritance, Taibai Luminous Godly Ban...

Many pieces of intelligence about An Xuan were unlocked; these hidden details were meaningless because any significant family with inheritance could recognize it. In that case, it is better to reveal it outright as a point of attraction for public attention.

"But truly young Heaven’s Chosen disdain such empty fame."

Online, some supporters of traditional young powerhouses were still stubbornly defending, although originally it was indeed the case, upon witnessing An Jing’s Sword Light, the so-called disdain quickly turned into caution.

Spiritual Light could only suppress, never inflate, and essentially is the control over nature’s spiritual energy. With the methods An Xuan displayed, if he fights at full strength, those whose Spiritual Light is less than eighteen hundred zhang would probably even slow down their moves by three beats!

Because of his strength, all the information about An Xuan instantly became hot topics; everyone, all forces, couldn’t wait to know all the details about An Xuan.

And amidst such waves, the previous conflicts between An Jing and the Yuan Family couldn’t be suppressed anymore.

Though the Yuan Family tried their utmost to extricate themselves from the conflict, true persons had already intervened, and the result was inevitably futile—within less than an hour, various bystander videos and surveillance about An Jing and the Yuan Family true persons battling swept through the Spiritual Network like a storm, rapidly spreading.

The strength of the Yuan Family is not just limited to Xuanye City; even in the entire Tianyuan Realm, they are definitely not weak. Although not akin to a feudal lord, a super family with Dao Embryo heritage, with a True Monarch overseeing, they couldn’t be considered weak however it was put.

And that true person who suffered a loss in the fight against An Jing was definitely not a nobody. The Yuan Family had more than ten true persons similar to this, and even a few had the potential to reach the True Monarch Realm.

Yet a family so powerful was forced into a very embarrassing situation by the mysterious visitor An Xuan, to the extent that no one had seen any retaliatory actions from the Yuan Family against An Xuan, such forbearance could never be viewed as ’acknowledging their mistake, nobly refraining from retaliation’, but must be because ’they know An Xuan has a profound background’ and silently swallowed the bitter fruit.

So what exactly is An Xuan’s background?

This question, lacking an answer, became the curiosity of everyone from the four cities, but no matter An Jing’s background, after today, An Xuan’s name would inevitably reverberate through the living areas of Tianyuan people.

"An Xuan, awesome, done perfectly!"

As the teams participating in the Four Cities Competition gradually assembled, aura and Spiritual Light dissipated one by one, An Jing retracted his Sword Qi Spiritual Light, upon returning to the warehouse, he received the excited communication from Chairman Chen: "It really helped me greatly, rest assured, no matter what problem you encounter, our Jingwei Academy is your most steadfast support!"

"Haha, it’s what I should do."

An Jing understood clearly, with his performance, the enrollment and resource support for Third Middle School would undoubtedly climb more than one tier, and if nothing unexpected happens, if the current trend stabilizes, the current Third Middle School becoming First Middle School wouldn’t be odd.

After making some polite exchanges with the chairman and principal, An Jing prepared to leave Chonggang Town and return to Xuanye City for a while.

Unlike those locals who could only stay beside Chonggang Town, Xuanye City’s teams rested in the city where they could better prepare their equipment. An Jing mainly came over to quell the arrogance of these young people, Nian Quan, Huo Qing, and Zhang Zhuo Xu Yue, these four teammates are making their final preparations in the city.

Nian Quan and Huo Qing were naturally planning, while Zhang Zhuo Xu Yue, since that trip to North Lake Marsh District, have become quite different in their relationship. One an unmanned puppetry master, another a Magic Martial Artist, work together rather well too. Tomorrow is the competition, they are out shopping for some memorabilia.

According to plan, An Jing should actually stay at Chonggang Town longer to meet the chiefs of the young generation from other cities, but An Jing felt it was meaningless, showing up for no reason would only waste his current sense of mystery and the shock of the first encounter, detrimental to the upcoming plans.

So after a brief perception, confirming Zhou Changhe’s aura can be easily tracked even across cities, An Jing returned to Xuanye City.

What An Jing was preparing to return to naturally was Nianquan Mansion, carrying his Heavenly Tribulation aura, beneficial to cultivation—it had long been renovated and refurbished, becoming even more luxurious and livable.

The two were inside, An Jing originally thought to discuss with them about the possibility of altering the next operation’s targets—matters concerning Subdue Evil obviously were the priority, he had to catch Zhou Changhe first.

But who would have thought, upon approaching the street near the mansion, An Jing suddenly heard arguing... or rather, the sound of quarreling!

"Hmm?!"

Upon hearing this, An Jing’s thoughts, initially scattered, simultaneously pondering cultivation, martial arts, the upcoming plans, Bright Mirror Sect and Tianyuan Realm’s goals, instantly gathered: "What’s going on? Why are they quarreling?"
