You are already cultivating immortality, who would fight with you alone?

In the evening, in the front yard of Liu Mansion.

Liu Yuntian lay leisurely by the pond, while Qi Xing stood beside him reporting the results.

There were many intermarriages among officials in the court, and the three clans of the Hu family involved more than a dozen officials, but fortunately, there were many substitute officials elected from the people through the imperial examinations.

"Only a few of those replacement officials are from humble families. Their ancestors have been officials, but most of them are commoners. Would it be a hindrance to the court's important affairs if we let them take over now?"

Liu Yuntian closed his eyes and felt the breeze. "Ability is not important, obedience is important."

As an experienced workplace veteran in his previous life, he deeply understood that no matter how big the company is, it is actually the same. Once you enter the company, you must never think that you are incapable and unable to do the job.

In fact, your predecessors who came a few years earlier than you are not much better than you. Everyone is learning while working. Everyone understands this, but no one wants to break this window paper.

"Your Majesty may be secretly communicating with the Immortal Sect and wants to harm me. You go and send a message to the Tianyuan Camp and be careful tomorrow." Liu Yuntian said in a cold voice.

"Yes!" Qi Xing bowed, then raised his head and asked in a low voice: "Then Dongfang Lan..."

"Don't worry about it. If you pull out this thorn, other thorns will come in. Just keep her." Liu Yuntian waved his hand.

"Yes!" Qi Xing responded respectfully, then turned and left.

After Qi Xing left, Liu Yuntian stretched hard, looked up at the sky, and began to think in his heart.

How will they deal with themselves tomorrow?

In Daliang, if they wanted to kill me, I'm afraid they would have to slaughter all three million national defense troops first.

Ye Xinglan would definitely not sit idly by. Even if it was just for show, he would definitely take action to stop it.

After all, if Ye Xinglan really allowed himself to be killed, then who would truly be loyal to such a tyrant who would destroy his own people and then abandon them after they have died?

As long as you are careful, it doesn't matter whether you win or lose tomorrow's competition. There is no stated stakes anyway. If you lose, you will have to pay some spirit stones symbolically. If you win, you will have to let them get out of Daliang with an explanation.

But if the other party really uses some other means on me...that would be great.

In that case...the Northern Frontier will be unified soon!

......

The next morning, just after dawn, the martial arts arena was already packed with people. The noise and cheers were endless, creating a very lively scene.

On the stage, colorful flags were flying, drums were beating, and the atmosphere was extremely warm.

Ye Xinglan sat alone on the high platform, with a stern expression and lightning-like eyes, revealing a sense of majesty and dominance.

Liu Yuntian sat slightly below, with densely packed Jinyiwei standing on both sides. They were in uniform with solemn expressions.

Qi Xing stood aside, looking around vigilantly, not daring to relax at all. The Tianyuan Battalion was suspended in the air at this time, seemingly performing a guard duty, but in fact, as long as there was the slightest movement, the Tianyuan Battalion of more than a hundred people would immediately launch an attack.

At this moment, a eunuch shouted loudly: "Master Wangqing from the Qingyun Sect has arrived!!!"

Following this announcement, Master Wangqing walked slowly towards them from mid-air in the distance. His powerful aura made everyone look at him sideways.

He landed steadily among the guest seats, his face expressionless.

Behind him was a young man in a Taoist robe, with a long sword on his back, exuding a unique temperament. He stood quietly beside Master Wangqing, with his hands behind his back, and a hint of pride in his eyes.

"Abbot Faming of the Buddhist sect has arrived!!!"

"Pavilion Master Li Feng of Yueyang Pavilion has arrived!!!"

Hearing the announcement, Liu Yuntian frowned, wondering: Why is Yueyang Pavilion here? Yueyang Pavilion is also one of the four sects in Northern Frontier. It is usually very low-key and rarely participates in disputes.

However, unlike the Tianya Sect, the current leader of the Tianya Sect is the Tianya Sect's grand elder who abused Ye Xinglan decades ago. The two sides have a feud and therefore rarely interact with each other.

However, Li Feng of Yueyang Pavilion was born as a casual cultivator. With his own efforts, he developed from a second-rate sect to the leader of a third-rate sect step by step.

In addition, the other three sects have support from the upper sect, except Yueyang Pavilion.

At this moment, Liu Yuntian subconsciously glanced at Ye Xinglan, as if wondering whether he had any collusion with Yueyang Pavilion.

However, Ye Xinglan showed great enthusiasm. He stood up and said, "Daoyou Li, you are such a rare guest!"

Li Feng landed on the stage, bowed to Ye Xinglan and Liu Yuntian and said, "I heard that Daliang and Qingyun Sect disciples were having a competition. I came here uninvited. I hope Fellow Daoist Ye and Mr. Liu will not mind." His tone was sincere and his attitude was humble, making it difficult to refuse.

"What are you talking about, Brother Li? It's just a minor dispute, just a discussion of martial arts."

After the greetings, Li Feng also walked into the temporary guest seats, nodded to Master Wangqing, and then sat down with a serious expression.

"Now that everyone is here, let's get started. Please invite the disciples from both sides to the martial arts arena!"

Abbot Fa Ming spoke calmly, but his voice seemed to be amplified hundreds of times, echoing throughout the entire martial arts arena.

Seeing the disciples around Master Wangqing flying into the venue with swords in hand, Liu Yuntian waved his hand: "Wang Hu, you..."

"Lord Liu!"

Ye Xinglan interrupted Liu Yuntian without waiting for him to issue an order.

"I think that my nephew Ye Ling has been practicing very hard recently and has reached the second level of the Golden Core. Why not give him a chance and treat it as a test?"

"Ye Ling? Has he reached the Golden Core stage?"

Liu Yuntian frowned, looking serious, and was secretly shocked. It's only been a few days? He has already entered the Golden Core stage?

You have to know that it took Qi Xing a whole year to condense the golden elixir, and the resources consumed during that time were countless.

He secretly looked at Ye Ling, feeling somewhat suspicious. Could it be that some old man or some other amazing treasure caused Ye Ling's rapid progress in cultivation?

But all in all, in this situation, he is definitely the son of luck!

Everyone's eyes were focused on Ye Ling. Some were surprised that he had already entered the Golden Core realm at such a young age, while others doubted his abilities.

After all, the Golden Core realm cannot be broken through easily. It requires a lot of time and energy to practice and comprehend.

However, Ye Ling reached the second level of Golden Core from the ninth level of Foundation Establishment in just a few days, without any bottlenecks during the period.

"Your servant Ye Ling, deputy commander of the Tianqi Camp, is willing to fight for Daliang!"
