Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

Chapter 1411 - 453: Three Town Youths, Who Is the Genius? Young Alliance Leader, Two Rivals Competing for a Breakthrough 3

Jiang Yiye revealed everyone’s ages; it was evident he was telling him that those present were all contestants in the Junior Martial Arts Competition group.

How is this possible, how could it be...

No way!

Mu Yunhua suddenly realized, looked around the cultivation field, and found no peers, promptly cupping his hand to inquire, ”Brother Jiang, are all these people from the two towns of Muyin and Jiangxia? Why don’t I see any Great Xia scions?”

”Hehe!”

Before Jiang Yiye could speak, Murong Jiao laughed ahead, and seeing Mu Yunhua looking at her, she shook her head and said, ”Great Xia has internal rules - those participating in the Martial Arts Competition aren’t allocated cultivation spots in the Martial Arts Pavilion during the matches.”

The slots to enter the Martial Arts Pavilion are limited, Mu Yunhua knew this. His ability to cultivate for five days was secured by his great-grandfather Mu Longhe. Mu Longhe had told him these things before coming to Great Xia.

The question is, why would Great Xia make such a rule?

”Brother Mu really knows nothing about this!”

Seeing Mu Yunhua’s expression, Jiang Yiye shook his head and sighed, then affected a helpless tone, ”To put it plainly, it’s to give us a chance! The Great Xia scions are too powerful; if they don’t tilt the Martial Arts Pavilion’s resources towards us from the outer towns, the top hundred in the Martial Arts Competition might end up being all Great Xia insiders.”

”This...how is that possible?”

Mu Yunhua hadn’t spoken yet when Mu Yunshu couldn’t hold back any longer and interjected.

Seeing the disbelief on the brothers’ faces, Jiang Yiye shook his head, ”Why is that impossible? Last year in the top ten of both groups combined, there were just four from the outer towns, and they were all at the bottom; the top hundred list, the outer towns occupied less than two-tenths.

Last year’s Martial Arts Competition had quite a few restrictions from Great Xia. For example, the renowned Holy Pattern Bloodline from Southern Slope was prohibited; same with weapons, Great Xia ruled a maximum of Thousand Forged was allowed, anything higher was forbidden...

This year, Great Xia intended to continue with restrictions, but during June’s Chui Mountain Alliance, Nine Towns formally made an agreement with you in Chui Mountain, elevating the specs of this Martial Arts Competition. In July, Lord Lin Kai announced at Hongmen that this year’s Martial Arts Competition imposes no restrictions on Great Xia scions and treats others from the Eight Towns equally, depending entirely on skill!”

After Jiang Yiye finished, the Mu Yunhua brothers had little reaction, but Murong Jiao and over a dozen young people from the two towns showed expressions of dejection.

Murong Jiao sighed and said, ”If we followed last year’s rules, reaching the top fifty was possible for us; now I’m afraid...”

”We inquired; last year’s champion Lu Dong had at most the strength of 8 Manes, so what if there were restrictions? Brother Xiahou’s 15 Manes strength exceeds Lu Dong’s by 7 Manes; doesn’t he stand a chance to win the championship?”

Mu Yunhua couldn’t hold back any longer and posed a question to Xiahou Ning, the strongest among them.

Xiahou Zhang, with 15 Manes of strength, was indeed the strongest among the young people present. But despite his strength, he wasn’t arrogant; when he heard Mu Yunhua’s question, he smiled wryly and cupped his hand, saying, ”If it were last year, I might still have some hope; but this year...”

He paused, resigned, ”Last year’s champion Lu Dong had indeed less than 8 Manes strength, but Brother Mu knows how old Lu Dong was when he won the championship last year?”

Mu Yunhua was startled, but he quickly realized the issue.

”Eighteen!”

Xiahou Ning directly gave the answer, then couldn’t help but shake his head, ”Meaning Lu Dong can compete with the junior group again this year; Brother Mu just arrived in Xia City, afraid you haven’t inquired about Lu Dong’s current strength?”

Mu Yunhua directly shook his head, noticing the faces of everyone around him turning dark upon hearing Lu Dong’s name, and his eyes filled with curiosity.

”23 Manes!”

Boom......

The number 23 Manes was like a thunderbolt exploding in their minds; Mu Yunhua and his brother’s expressions froze, standing dumbfounded.
