Chapter 753: Going Out to Train

Prodigy Ranking Tournament?

Ye Wudao's eyes lit up upon hearing this.

Wasn't this the competition for the younger generation organized between Level 2 Divine Kingdoms that Lin Qingxue had mentioned before?

Back when they were in the Starry Sky Battlefield, Ye Wudao had heard her mention a word or two about it.

Come to think of it, he owed that to the time he spent traveling with Lin Qingxue.

Ye Wudao's understanding of the Divine Realm came entirely from his soul-searching of Demon Lord Wanjian and the Fourth Elder of the Chu Family back on the Tianxuan Continent.

However, the status and strength of the former destined that Demon Lord Wanjian simply did not care about the situation in low-level Divine Kingdoms.

Although the Chu Family was only a force within a Level 3 Divine Kingdom, they held themselves in high regard and likewise paid no attention to the affairs of Level 1 and Level 2 Divine Kingdoms.

For instance, the Starry Sky Battlefield did not exist in the memory of the Fourth Elder of the Chu Family.

It wasn't until the time he spent traveling with Lin Qingxue that Ye Wudao heard about many things from her loose lips.

But Ye Wudao hadn't expected that this Prodigy Ranking Tournament would happen to coincide with his arrival.

"Master, are you talking about that once-in-a-century competition for the younger generation?"

"I only know of its existence, but I don't know many of the details."

Ye Wudao replied quickly.

Elder Yin Changhong smiled slightly and immediately explained the details of the Prodigy Ranking Tournament to him.

Finally, he asked with a smile:

"The Prodigy Ranking Tournament for this century is in two years."

"Now that the Dongyi Divine Kingdom is a Level 2 Divine Kingdom, it has the qualifications to participate in the Prodigy Ranking Tournament."

"And those Prodigies who can enter the prodigy ranking list will have the Opportunity to enter the Spirit Pool Holy Land to attain enlightenment!"

"Do you want to participate?"

As soon as he finished speaking, before Ye Wudao could answer, Cheng Yuan, who was nearby, couldn't wait to chime in:

"Elder Ye, with your talent, if you don't go to the Prodigy Ranking Tournament to shine, it would be a complete waste!"

"As for the quota, you don't need to worry."

"Our branch of the Tianyuan Chamber of Commerce has always been able to secure spots."

"As long as you want to participate, we can reserve a spot for you!"

Li Mingxin also added:

"That's right, that Spirit Pool Holy Land is a great place."

"Entering it allows you to comprehend the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth at close range, which will be of huge benefit to your future cultivation."

"Elder Ye, you must not miss such an Opportunity!"

Naturally, ripples of emotion stirred in Ye Wudao's heart.

Now that he had the backing of the Tianyuan Chamber of Commerce, the Chu Family dared not act rashly, but Ye Wudao also knew that the grudge between them could not end just like that.

Whether it was the death of Young Master Chu Xuan or the death of that Saint Spirit Realm Old Ancestor Chu Xin, both had caused the Chu Family to suffer great losses.

The Chu Family would definitely try every possible way to take revenge.

And what about himself?

Naturally, he had to try every possible way to improve his strength.

This Spirit Pool Holy Land was a great Opportunity!

Moreover, while his current strength might be considered top-tier in the Dongyi Divine Kingdom, looking at the entire Divine Realm, it was still just a drop in the ocean.

If he wanted to grow rapidly, he needed more tempering and opportunities.

Thinking of this, Ye Wudao no longer hesitated, nodded at the group, and said firmly:

"Thank you, Master and Elders, for your kindness. This Disciple is willing to go!"

Having received an affirmative answer, Cheng Yuan immediately laughed loudly:

"Good!"

"Elder Ye, rest assured. There will definitely be a spot for you in the competition two years from now!"

Elder Yin Changhong and the others nodded repeatedly.

The matter of the Prodigy Ranking Tournament was thus decided.

After chatting for a few more minutes, seeing that it was getting late, Elder Yin Changhong arranged Immortal Caves for Cheng Yuan, Li Mingxin, and the others.

When he finished handling matters and returned to his own Immortal Cave, he found Ye Wudao waiting for him there.

Elder Yin Changhong was somewhat surprised and asked:

"Wudao, is something the matter?"

Ye Wudao cupped his hands and said:

"Master, the Prodigy Ranking Tournament doesn't start for another two years. During this time, this Disciple intends to go out to train and improve his strength."

"As it happens, that little guy, the Crimson Flame Heavenly Tiger, also needs some combat opportunities, so we can go out to train together."

"Therefore, I came to bid you farewell."

Hearing this, Elder Yin Changhong stroked his beard, a look of contemplation appearing on his face.

A moment later, having figured something out, he nodded with a smile:

"Very good. That you have such ambition makes this Master very gratified!"

"Cultivators of our generation should contend with Heaven, struggle against the Earth, and battle with people to constantly improve ourselves."

"Since you are willing to train, this Master naturally will not stop you."

"Anyway, now that you are an Elder of our Chamber of Commerce, no one in the entire Dongyi Divine Kingdom dares to touch you."

"Go ahead and enjoy yourself!"

As he spoke, he flipped his palm, took out three Formation Plates, handed them to Ye Wudao, and said:

"This Master knows you have many means, and ordinary Creation Realm Cultivators may not necessarily be your match, but the hearts of people in the outside world are treacherous, so one must be on guard."

"These three Formation Plates are this Master's proudest works. Take them for self-defense."

"If you encounter any unexpected danger, just use the Formation Plates to hold out for a moment and contact this Master, and this Master will arrive at the fastest speed."

"As for the Chamber of Commerce here, rest assured!"

Ye Wudao's decision to go out to train and improve his strength was mainly for two reasons.

First was to prepare for the Prodigy Ranking Tournament in two years.

Although he currently had many trump cards and could deal with Cultivators at the Creation Realm Third Layer and below, the Qilin Precious Technique and the Vermilion Bird Precious Technique were methods that could not be easily exposed.

He still needed to improve his cultivation level to achieve a better ranking in the Prodigy Ranking Tournament and gain more rewards.

The second reason, naturally, was the Chu Family.

Regardless of whether there was a Prodigy Ranking Tournament or not, the grudge between him and the Chu Family could not be turned over.

Now that the Chu Family dared not act rashly, it would be a waste if he didn't take the Opportunity to improve his strength.

Ye Wudao had to seize every moment to improve himself.

Therefore, while Elder Yin Changhong was settling Cheng Yuan and the other Elders, Ye Wudao made his decision and came to bid farewell.

But he hadn't expected that Elder Yin Changhong would give him three Formation Plates without a second thought.

You have to know, if he hadn't misread it, one of the Formation Plates was exactly the one Elder Yin Changhong had used to deal with Qiao Shen in the Secret Realm.

It was evident that these three Formation Plates were likely one of Elder Yin Changhong's ultimate trump cards.

A warmth spread through Ye Wudao's heart. He immediately took the Formation Plates solemnly and thanked him earnestly:

"Thank you, Master!"

Elder Yin Changhong waved his hand and said:

"Why thank me, Master and Disciple as we are?"

"Since you are going out to train, you naturally need to be well-prepared."

Ye Wudao smiled and said:

"This Disciple understands."

With everything that needed to be said having been said, Ye Wudao bade farewell to Elder Yin Changhong and left.

However, after leaving Elder Yin Changhong's Immortal Cave, he did not leave the city directly. Instead, his figure turned, and he arrived outside the residence where Yue Liuli lived.

He released his Mental Energy to sweep across it gently and felt that the Formations inside and outside the residence were all in an activated state.

It seemed that Yue Liuli was still in seclusion.
