The people of the Golden Eagle Kingdom were all seated in the main seat. The Iron Eagle Sect was sitting next to the Golden Eagle Kingdom. This could be considered a sign of their importance. In the territory of the Golden Eagle Kingdom, only the Iron Eagle Sect was on par with the Golden Eagle Kingdom.

The other sects and great families also sat down at their designated places. Before long, almost all the participants had arrived.

After Ye Liuyun sized up the competitors, he suddenly lost interest. These people’s strength was simply too weak for him and it was not challenging at all.

Although the participants weren’t very strong, Ye Liuyun was still a little interested in the power of bloodline of a few people.

Piaoyun was beside Ye Liuyun. She used her Divine Sense to introduce the participants to him through voice transmission.

Furthermore, she was a smart assistant. She would introduce anyone that Ye Liuyun looked at.

"That’s the Crown Prince of the Golden Eagle Kingdom, Jin Yuanhao. He has the golden eagle bloodline. The one who comes alone is said to have the bloodline of the Ape Clan and he is called Gao Yuan. His physical body is also very strong and he’s particularly violent in battle. The man who is holding a sword and looks like a scholar in white, is Lu Wentong from the Lu family. He’s famous for his fast sword. Xiong Batian..."

Ye Liuyun nodded. He didn’t expect to see a few different bloodlines. The power of bloodline of these people was close to thirty or forty percent of his power of bloodline.

He also reminded Piaoyun, "The power of bloodline and strength of these people are stronger than yours. When you fight with them, don’t push yourself. With your strength, you should be able to rank in the top eight or nine."

This ranking was almost the same as what Liuyun had predicted.

At this time, Xiong Batian also saw Ye Liuyun and came over to greet him.

"Liuyun, if you meet Jin Yuanhao later, you don’t have to hold back. Help me beat him! It’s not convenient for me to attack him, but you can," Xiong Batian said with a smile.

"Why? Did he offend you?" Ye Liuyun asked curiously. He didn’t know that Xiong Batian would hold a grudge against someone else.

Xiong Batian said helplessly, "It’s because of his identity. There’s nothing great about him! If it weren’t for my father’s refusal, I would have already fought with him!"

"I’m afraid that you’re no match for him now!" Ye Liuyun said with a smile.

"Hahaha, don’t say it even if you know it! It’s embarrassing!" Xiong Batian was unbothered and laughed.

"Just give it your best shot. Then, we can go and participate in the Cangyun Competition together!"

Ye Liuyun was certain that Xiong Batian’s strength was similar to that of Piaoyun, but his bloodline was stronger than hers, so his ranking should be higher than hers. However, he was weaker than Jiang Wanhao of the Iron Eagle Sect. Whether or not he could defeat Jiang Wanhao would depend on the power of his bloodline.

"That’s for sure! This kind of competition is meaningless. Let’s go to the Cangyun Competition together and enjoy ourselves!" Xiong Batian was also full of confidence. With his current power of bloodline and strength, it should not be a problem for him to enter the top 10.

After chatting for a while, Xiong Batian returned to the faction of the Golden Eagle Kingdom.

When Ye Liuyun saw that the king and queen of Golden Eagle Kingdom also attended the selection, he glanced at the queen, who was also looking at him.

"She probably won’t hate me, right? I’ve already explained everything to her back then!" Ye Liuyun thought to himself as he looked away.

However, he did not see Ninth Princess. Ye Liuyun thought to himself, "Is this girl angry with me? It’s good that we don’t meet! So that we won’t think of each other!"

After a while, an elder of the Golden Eagle Kingdom came out as the host and announced the rules of this competition.

"...In this competition, we have chosen ten people in advance. They are all well-known young talents. You all will challenge these ten people. The winner will replace their positions..."

After he finished speaking, Ye Liuyun asked Jing Wudi, "There are no rewards for the winners of this selection? This Golden Eagle Kingdom is too stingy."

Jing Wudi smiled, "That’s because of you, the uncertainty. If it weren’t for you, the Crown Prince will be most likely to win the championship and of course there will be rewards! However, the champion will be the leader of the team and lead the other nine to participate in the Cangyun Competition."

"Isn’t that a difficult task?" Ye Liuyun cried.

When he heard this, he immediately changed his mind, "I can’t be number one. If there is anything, let others deal with it." He was always too lazy to stand out.

He thought for a moment and asked Jing Wudi, "How about I get third place?"

Jing Wudi smiled. He also knew his character. If he hadn’t recommended Ye Liuyun to be the division chief, he wouldn’t have joined. "It’s up to you, as long as you’re in the top ten."

Then, the elder read out the names of the ten people. Jiang Wanhao of the Iron Eagle Sect was ranked fifth. He first walked to the front and sat down. The first place was the Crown Prince of the Golden Eagle Kingdom, Jin Yuanhao. The second place was Gao Yuan and the third place was Lu Wentong.

However, this ranking was only temporary. It still depended on them whether they could hold on to the ranking or not. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Jiang Wanhao was also an experienced contestant in this area. Because Ye Liuyun was a newcomer, he didn’t have his ranking.

Ye Liuyun had also chosen his opponent. "If I want to be at the third place, then I might have to fight against Lu Wentong. That’s fine as well. Since he also uses sword, let’s see who’s better in sword fighting."

Ye Liuyun had been cultivating the power of space recently, so he was confident in the speed of his saber. Basically, the moment he slashed out with his saber, it would pass through the void and reach his opponent. He didn’t believe that anyone could be faster than him.

Moreover, his sword intention had become stronger now. If the estimation was right, Ye Liuyun’s sword intention alone should be able to suppress the opponent’s sword intention.

Although Lu Wenlong’s sword intention was sharp, Ye Liuyun felt that he had just reached the consummation phase with the momentum he exuded. He didn’t even have a sword intention seed. His sword intention was probably not even comparable to Lin Feier’s.

In order to end the competition quickly, Ye Liuyun was the first to stand up right after the host announced the start of the competition.

The moment he stepped forward, the people of the Golden Eagle Kingdom began to get nervous. They thought that Ye Liuyun was going for the first place, especially the Crown Prince, Jin Yuanhao. His eyes narrowed, and his fighting spirit rose.

However, Ye Liuyun directly said that he wanted to challenge Lu Wentong, who was in third place, which shocked everyone.

Lu Wentong also did not expect that Ye Liuyun would actually challenge him. However, he still accepted the challenge happily. It was obvious that he had great confidence in his own strength.

His power of bloodline was not weak to begin with, coupled with his sword intention, so he was not afraid of challenges.
