Chapter 456 - 456 455 Martial Alliance

456: Chapter 455 Martial Alliance 456: Chapter 455 Martial Alliance Seeing the different forms of Battle Clothes, some Martial Artists began to grumble.

Soon, the crowd received an explanation.

The color of the Battle Clothes was determined by the ranking in the previous Azure Dragon Society competition.

For example, those who had never participated before wore Bronze Battle Armor, like Lin Xuan and others.

Those who had entered the top three hundred wore Blue Silver Battle Suits, like Zhao Kuang and others.

Silver Battle Clothes were for those who entered the top one hundred.

And the Green Dragon Geniuses ranked in the top seventy-two would all carry a glint of Golden Light.

Such as the Silver Gold Battle Suits.

The level of Five Great Heroes wore Golden Battle Dress, and the Four Heavenly Pride wore Five-Colored Exquisite Battle Armor, representing an unparalleled status.

This ranking system was crystal clear, with one’s standing on the ladder apparent at a glance through their Battle Clothes.

Moreover, the Battle Clothes themselves contained True Dragon Qi of the corresponding ladder.

It was just that they couldn’t be used yet, one had to wait until after the competition was over to enjoy the effects of the True Dragon Qi.

“So that’s how it is,” Lin Xuan understood.

The final ranking would be determined by the Battle Clothes.

If one’s combat power was extraordinary, then even Bronze Battle Armor could evolve into Five-colored Battle Clothes, and the corresponding Martial Artist would become one of the Five Great Supreme Talents.

Every match won would yield True Dragon Qi, and the losing side would lose True Dragon Qi.

Understanding this, everyone just waited for the upcoming matches.

At this time, in front of the Ancient Martial Platform, there appeared five figures above that Ancient City.

These five possessed an aura so powerful it seemed as if they were the Sovereigns of heaven and earth, their terrifying presence enveloping all directions.

The Red Fire Venerable was among them.

Those who could be in the company of the Red Fire Venerable were certainly Venerables themselves.

The crowd was shocked; the sudden appearance of five Venerables at once was a nerve-shattering spectacle.

One of them, wearing an ancient green robe, looked young, as if only in his twenties.

But the aura from his body was even more formidable than the Red Fire Venerable’s by a good third.

“That is the Green Lotus Venerable, don’t be deceived by his youth, he is at least over five hundred years old.”

Lin Xuan was surprised as he looked towards the Ancient City.

He saw the Green Lotus Venerable seated in the center, with the other four Venerables seated at his sides.

It appeared that, whether in status or strength, this Green Lotus Venerable was above the other four.

“This Green Lotus Venerable is a Martial Alliance Elder, both his strength and status are considered high grade among Venerables,” Tie Shou explained.

Martial Alliance?

Lin Xuan was surprised, it was his first time hearing of it.

“The Martial Alliance is that powerful?

Even the Red Fire Venerable has to give way?”

“Of course, it’s powerful, you should know that the members within the Martial Alliance are all Venerables.”

“What?

All Venerables!” Lin Xuan was stunned; such strength was definitely above that of a Five-star Sect.

Moreover, probably no one in the entire Tian Nan Domain could match it.

Seeing Lin Xuan’s shocked expression, Tie Shou continued to explain.

“Indeed, every member within the Martial Alliance is a Venerable, but these Venerables aren’t exclusively from the Martial Alliance.”

“For example, the Red Fire Venerable; he is both a Supreme Elder of the Skyfire Sect and also a member of the Martial Alliance.”

“Other than a very few Independent Practitioner Venerables, the rest within the Martial Alliance are similar to the Red Fire Venerable.”

Hearing this, Lin Xuan heaved a sigh of relief.

If the Martial Alliance were an independent power, it would have been too terrifying!

“What exactly does the Martial Alliance do?

Is it just to host the Azure Dragon Society meeting?

Isn’t that a bit of a waste?”

The Martial Alliance consisted of thirteen members in total, and they decided everything in the Tian Nan Domain; they were also the main combat force against the Black Dragon Sect.

“Control everything?

Fight against the Black Dragon Sect?” Lin Xuan was astonished, as these two pieces of news were too shocking.

Ten thousands of nations and billions of people in the Tian Nan Domain were actually under the control of thirteen individuals!

This was indeed a world where the strong were venerated.

Moreover, the Martial Alliance turned out to be the main combat force against the Black Dragon Sect.

How formidable was the Black Dragon Sect to be able to contend with the Martial Alliance, which was wholly composed of Venerables?

Lin Xuan voiced his doubts.

“In the past, the Black Dragon Sect rampaged across the Tian Nan Domain, almost occupying a great majority of the territory.”

“If not for the Martial Alliance’s resistance, the Tian Nan Domain would have long become a mortal hell,” Tie Shou said gravely.

“The Black Dragon Sect Leader has overwhelming mana; it is said that he has already stepped one foot out of the Venerable Realm and reached a higher level.”

“Under him are the Left and Right Envoys, as well as the Four Guardians; each of them possesses the strength of the Venerable Realm.”

“That battle was extremely gruesome, and Lord Leng was injured in that conflict, leading to his seclusion.”

Lin Xuan fell silent, thinking of the Black Dragon Flame; it seemed to be something left by a Venerable of the Black Dragon Sect.

“Previously, the Azure Dragon Society only had one or two Venerables attending, but this time five have appeared.

I suspect it may be related to the Black Dragon Sect.”

“The Black Dragon Sect?” Lin Xuan’s expression became grave.

“Yes, at the southwestern border of the Tian Nan Domain, the remnants of the Black Dragon Sect are resurfacing, and their power is growing.”

“Moreover, there have been recent rumors suggesting that the remnants of the Black Dragon Sect are planning a major operation, seemingly intending to resurrect one of the Four Guardians.”

“Initially, I thought these were just rumors, but seeing the actions of the Martial Alliance, it seems that these rumors are likely true.”

“I had wanted you to gain more experience this time and go all out in the next Azure Dragon Society gathering.”

“Now it seems that you had better display all of your combat power this time and strive to obtain as much True Dragon Qi as possible,” Tie Shou said.

Lin Xuan nodded; Tie Shou’s words were clear.

If the Black Dragon Sect were to resurge, then the Tian Nan Domain would face another great disaster.

At that time, it wasn’t certain whether there would be a next Azure Dragon Society gathering or not.

While Lin Xuan and Tie Shou were conversing, the four Ancient Martial Platforms suddenly burst into light.

Lin Xuan sensed a strange energy emanating from within the Bronze Battle Armor, seemingly urging him towards the third Martial Arts Platform.

“Do not resist.

During the Azure Dragon Society gathering, one must follow the guidance of the True Dragon Qi,” Tie Shou explained.

Lin Xuan relaxed his body, and sure enough, under the guidance of the True Dragon Qi, he arrived at the third arena.

Not just him, at this moment, an inexplicable aura radiated from the Battle Clothes of all the contenders, leading them to be drawn into the various arenas.

Soon, the allocation of participants was complete.

Lin Xuan observed that the distribution of the True Dragon Qi was very even; each arena’s situation was similar, with evenly matched levels.

Among them, the Four Great Supreme Talents presided over the four arenas, with the Five Great Heroes spread out in the four directions.

Lin Xuan’s third arena was overseen by Prince Tianhuo.

Among the Five Great Heroes, Yue Yan was also assigned to the third arena.

Lin Xuan quickly surveyed the scene and found that Ba Wuji presided over the first arena, Zhou Jianying over the second, Prince Tianhuo over the third, and Yan Shan over the fourth.

This situation corresponded with their rankings in the Azure Dragon Society.

Among them, Zhao Xue was allocated to the second arena, Leng Yidao to the first, and Dongfang Xiong to the fourth.

Meanwhile, Zhao Kuang and Hua Fei, along with Lin Xuan, were together in the third arena.

After the allocation, the Green Lotus Venerable spoke from atop the Ancient City, his voice resonating gravely in all directions.

“Contest opponents are guided by the True Dragon Qi, and deliberate killing is prohibited in the competition.

Violators will be stripped of their True Dragon Qi!”

“Now, I hereby announce that the Azure Dragon Society has officially begun.”
