Early in the morning, people from all branches of the Shenlong clan began to gather in front of the huge sculpture of Emperor Xuanyuan riding a dragon and holding a sword.
The towering statue of the Great Emperor is like a giant spirit god, with a pair of life-like eyes, overlooking the millions of Shenlong clan people in the city.
At this time, all the streets and alleys in the city were all empty, and everyone came to worship their ancestors in a proper manner.
Ye Fan took Su Qingxue with Ye Hang behind him. As for Ye Wanqing and Ye Danqing, they were separated by a group of people because of their status within the clan, and they were in a relatively backward position.
In fact, there was also a large group of Ye Fans who didn't know Ye Fan in front of Ye Fan.
Grandfather Ye Chaoxuan’s brothers, there are already dozens of them with Ye Huangtu’s generation. Although everyone is not familiar with many of them, there is nothing to do. There are too many people, and there are always some who can’t meet frequently. .
What made Ye Fan even more dumbfounded was that a group of Ye patriarchs who were already great-grandfathers and great-great-great-grandfathers, some of them had the Presbyterian Church, and some had retired from the Presbyterian Church.
Many of these elders are already thousands of years old, and they occasionally come out once or twice a year. Many descendants of descendants have never known them.
Of course, these elders who can be regarded as "ancestors" in the true sense are actually not interested in dealing with descendants who have passed dozens of generations.
All in all, there are tens of thousands of people in the Shan Ye family alone!
Ye Fan, as the young master of the Hou Mansion in Zhenbei, the son-in-law, standing among such a large group of Ye family members, is actually quite insignificant...
After all, Ye Jiazu had more nobles, consorts, and even some of the most famous people.
On the high platform, the current patriarch Ji Changgong and the great elder Yao Xingzhi, among more than a dozen tribes with respect and respect, witnessed by the ancestors of each family, took the Shenlong clan to perform an ancestor worship ceremony.
Millions of people from the tribe knelt down one after another, all with serious expressions. This scene made Ye Fan feel quite shocked.
On earth, he does not have a strong sense of belonging to his clan bloodline, but at this moment, he even feels that the blood is a little hot...
The earliest Shenlong clan worshiping the ancestors did not kneel down to worship Emperor Xuanyuan, but since Emperor Xuanyuan became the representative of the Shenlong clan, this has not changed for more than 10,000 years.
Although the ceremony was grand, it actually ended in half an hour.
The crowd gradually dispersed, but there were also tens of thousands of people walking towards the Shenlong martial arts field in the ancestral land.
What the clan people look forward to most every year is naturally the Dragon and Dragon Competition, watching someone emerge from the younger generation.
For cultivators, a year can change a lot, so every year is a brand new situation.
"Huangtu, Fan'er should be in battle this year, right?" Ye Chaoxuan asked on the way to the martial arts field.
"Yes, father, but Hang'er also wants to play, saying that Qi Tong from the Qi family hit Danqing and he wants to fight back," Ye Huangtu replied respectfully.
"Oh? That Qi Tong is just like his old man, he is domineering, haha... Okay, as expected to be the descendants of our Zhenbeihou Mansion, bloody!"
Ye Chaoxuan smiled with satisfaction, then turned around and stretched out his hand to pat Ye Hang's shoulder, "Hang'er, that Qi Tong Xiu base is two times higher than you, are you confident?"
Ye Hang was full of ambition, "Grandpa, don't worry, the double true essence is nothing, and it's not impossible to break the defense.
As long as my fighting skills are better than him, he is not my opponent!
I'm in the Zhenbei Army to compete against the seven generals of the Spirit Shaping! "
"Haha! Good! Grandpa is waiting to see you perform!"
Ye Chaoxuan said, turning around and patted Ye Fan's back, "Fan'er, you participated in the competition for the first time this year, but in terms of age, it is also your last time.
Do remember, don't have any pressure, you are a rising star, the clan already attaches great importance to you.
The assassination of Huaxu Clan this time shows that your potential has already made some people nervous.
No matter how you play, as long as you try your best, don’t lose your confidence. You still have a long way to go, you know? "
Ye Fan smiled bitterly, "I haven't beaten it yet, why
Planning to see me lose? "
"Haha... Don't talk too much about Grandpa, it's mainly because Grandpa has seen too many clansmen who have been devastated because of failures, so he specifically reminds you."
Ye Chaoxuan sighed, and pointed to the front. There were a few back figures walking silently, just the ancestors of the Ye family.
No one talked to them, because no one knew them, and they were very low-key from start to finish.
"Have you seen, those ancestors are actually thousands of years old, but they have been stopping for a thousand years to win the sky, live forever, and even shape the soul...
Although it is not a big deal to put it in the wild world, in fact, many people in our clan will be destroyed by confidence.
Looking at people of the same age, one by one towards the heavenly king, the heavenly emperor, the holy realm...
Not only that, they are constantly being overwhelmed by younger generations, and more and more people look down on them.
Many people of the tribe have left the clan just because they can't bear it.
There are even a lot of people who are unstable in their Taoism and die directly, and even commit suicide, not a few.
Even if the monks live a long life, this is not necessarily a good thing. Being alive... is actually not easy," Ye Chaoxuan sighed.
Ye Fan was stunned. He hadn't really noticed this before. After thinking about it carefully, it was indeed so cruel and realistic.
Ye Huangtu on the side said sternly: "Don't live up to your grandfather's careful teachings, don't slacken off while you are young!"
Ye Hang looked serious, "Yes, father, grandpa!"
Ye Fan didn't say anything, just nodded. Fortunately, working hard, he knew...
When they came to the martial arts field, people from all veins came to the area they belonged to.
On a high platform close by, it was the referee's bench for this competition. Nine masters of the clan, such as Yao Xingzhi and Feng Qinglan, served as referees.
More than a dozen huge stone screens were placed around the martial arts field.
The names and photos of the young children who signed up from different veins have appeared above, as well as a brief introduction.
Below this battle system, there is a line of words: Honored by the Cloud Group.
Seeing this scene, Ye Fan couldn't help but smile, Chu Yunyao's business is really doing all over the world.
Patriarch Ji Changgong smiled and walked to the center of the stage, Zhen Yuan urged his voice to spread throughout the audience.
"The ancestors, elders, heads of each family, as well as members of the Shenlong clan, the annual Shenlong Competition is about to begin again.
The rules were the same as in previous years, and the young people who participated were divided into groups according to their cultivation level.
When choosing opponents, you can either draw randomly or by yourself.
However, in the first three rounds, those with a high level of cultivation cannot choose those with a low level of cultivation. Those with a low level of cultivation can challenge the high level of cultivation...
After the three rounds, you can choose to abandon the competition or continue to participate, but everyone will compete for the championship together.
All weapons can be used, but they must be standard weapons provided on-site, all methods and tricks can be used...
If you voluntarily surrender, the referee determines that you have lost combat power, or you fall from the ring, you will all be sentenced to defeat.
Those who intentionally kill will be severely punished! Accidental death, deal with it as appropriate after review..."
Ye Fan sat in his seat, listening to these rules, muttering in his heart, the rules were quite interesting, but he didn't know what the champions would be rewarded.
Just thinking about it, I heard Ji Changgong smile and said: "Presumably the young people here are very curious about this year's Grand Tournament champion, what rewards are there...
Haha, in previous years, the rewards were all spirit tools, cultivating pills, but this year is different.
Those who win the championship can get an extra place, and accompany our Shenlong delegation to visit the'Xiangong' together after the year! "
As soon as this remark came out, the audience was in an uproar, and many people stood up directly with excitement, and even the elders of various veins showed a trace of desire!
Ye Fan is at a loss. What does this reward mean, traveling together? Is visiting a fairy palace so exciting
