Chapter 1051: Fame Rises!
Even though Su Yi is now at the Yuan Void Realm, and there are several experts from the Yuan Emperor Realm within the Overlord Sect, he doesn’t take the people from the seven second-rate forces lightly. The years of accumulation they have gathered are not something that can be easily surpassed.
Su Yi observed for a while, watching as the carriage drawn by the Red Bear Monkey disappeared into a certain part of the city. Throughout the entire time, Su Yi saw no one from the Wuyan Palace, nor did he catch sight of the youngest and most powerful, Shang Wangchen.
“Splash…”
At that moment, a gust of wind swept through Nine Star City. Soon after, a massive, fierce bird unfolded its wings and swiftly flew towards their direction. On the back of the bird, dozens of figures could be seen. Among them, aside from a few older individuals, the leader was a young man with a pale, haunting face, exuding a chilling aura.
The bird beneath him had a similar demeanor, its eyes completely white and emitting an eerie, cold presence.
“That’s a rare sight, the Hell Thunder Eagle,” said Su Yi, raising an eyebrow as he recognized the ominous bird.
“They must be from the Xuanying Sect! The young man leading them is certainly their chief disciple, Sang Ming!”
Soon enough, others around them recognized the newcomers as well. Xuanying Sect is one of the seven second-tier forces within the Chaos Realm, much like the previously seen Wuyan Palace.
“Tomorrow, the Zhao Spirit Secret Realm will open, and the alliance conference will truly begin. Today, Nine Star City will become even livelier, as members of the first and second-tier powers are bound to arrive throughout the day!”
The Zhao Spirit Secret Realm is the venue for the second round of the alliance conference, located in a separate dimension. Listening to the discussions around him, Su Yi understood that today marked the true beginning of Nine Star City’s bustle. The descendants of major powers were flocking to the city, setting the stage for an extraordinary event!
Su Yi took the matter more seriously. After all, the number of participants from the first and second-tier forces at the conference greatly outnumbered those from third-tier or below forces.
“There are three top-tier powers, each sending 80 participants. Seven second-tier forces are contributing 50 participants each. Additionally, seven third-tier forces will have 20 representatives entering the Zhao Spirit Secret Realm. In total, that’s 790 people.”
Su Yi mentally calculated, “790 young elites—this is a formidable force.” Among these young representatives from first and second-tier forces, some have likely already reached the Yuan Void Realm.
Su Yi wasn’t afraid, but if these forces turned hostile, things could get complicated.
“Wuyan Palace—Shang Wangchen, Xuanying Sect—Sang Ming…”
Su Yi silently repeated these names in his mind, then gestured to Xi Wuqing and the others nearby, saying, “Nothing interesting here, let’s go.”
They turned and headed back to the inn. Shortly after their departure, the crowd on the street once again erupted into excited chatter. As time passed, youths from various influential forces continued to arrive, attracting the attention of the masses.
By the time afternoon rolled around, all the members of the seven major and second-tier forces had gathered.
Red Sun Sect, Yi Shangyuan!
Yuding Sect, Ruan Zhuo!
Tiangang Sect, Hong Jianqiu!
Purple Shadow Building, Shui Yuechan!
Green Flame School, Wei Changtian!
Together with Shang Wangchen from Wuyan Palace and Sang Ming from Xuanying Sect, these seven individuals were the top figures from these seven forces, possessing exceptional strength and leading the heroes!
Shui Yuechan from Purple Shadow Building drew the most attention due to her striking beauty, ethereal presence, and graceful demeanor, captivating countless gazes. What’s more, she was still young, barely in her mid-twenties, and appeared even more youthful.
Su Yi didn’t pay much attention to the arrival of these figures, but from time to time, he could hear the crowd’s shouts. The atmosphere was electrified, especially with the children of the three first-tier forces adding to the excitement of the city.
Su Yi, who had stayed behind at the inn, picked up some useful information.
Shi Susu and Qin Yusheng from Cangyun Temple.
Jing Qiran and Cao Yunfei from Nine Star Valley.
Wu Jiuyou and Fu Dongxuan from Blood Sun Sect.
These six figures were the strongest young talents from the top three forces, drawing more attention than those from the second-tier forces.
At the same time, alongside the growing fame of these figures throughout Nine Star City, the name “Su Yi” also began to spread. More and more people started to recognize the young man from the Overlord Sect.
“Su Yi, could it be…?”
Some of the more informed individuals quickly recalled certain rumors and were stunned. Along with numerous smaller forces and lone cultivators, even those from the top ten alliance forces swiftly learned of Su Yi’s identity.
As night fell, Nine Star City sparkled with light. Some grand and impressive mansions dotted the city, serving as the resting places for individuals from the first and second-tier forces. Naturally, these alliance experts enjoyed special treatment, far surpassing the small forces and wandering cultivators.
Within one secluded mansion, many figures gathered, with the leader being Elder Wu of Tiangang Sect. The rest of the group were mostly young people, headed by a spirited and handsome youth.
“To think such a person would appear in this preliminary selection tournament—truly remarkable!” said a young man, disbelief written all over his face.
“They say his name is Su Yi. Could he be the champion of the recent Saint Martial Assembly in the Central Region?” someone whispered.
“It’s probably him. Yang Baikun mentioned a little bird that he became sworn brothers with at the Saint Martial Assembly—this must be the same person!”
The dignified young man at the forefront was Hong Jianqiu, the Young Sect Leader of Tiangang Sect. He nodded and spoke softly, “The Sacred Mountain in the Central Region has been searching for him everywhere. Who would have guessed that he would cause such a stir here in the Chaos Realm? Truly extraordinary!”
“This alliance conference won’t be peaceful. Be extra cautious around that kid. If you get the chance, eliminate him completely. Otherwise, it could turn into a huge disaster. The people around him are all incredibly powerful, especially Lifetaken Yama Xi Wuqing. His name reverberates throughout the Chaos Realm!”
Elder Wu looked at the young talents from Tiangang Sect and said, “No matter what, the Golden Sword Sect is also a force nurtured by our Tiangang Sect. We were hoping they’d make progress, but they suffered significant losses at that kid’s hands. We must settle this score!”
His tone was calm, with little emotion. However, inexplicably, a chill swept through the young people in the room.
“He’s just a little kid with messy hair. No matter how strong he is, there’s a limit. His performance in the preliminary selection assembly was impressive, but if that’s all there is, it’s still not enough,” said Hong Jianqiu, his eyes gleaming with intensity.
Deep down, he understood that reaching Su Yi’s level in the preliminary assembly might not be easy for him considering his current abilities. But if he really put his mind to it, it wouldn’t be too difficult either.
With the power of the Yuan Void Realm at its peak, he could easily overpower the descendants of forty third-rate forces using various tactics. Besides, the Overlord Sect only had Su Yi as their sole talented individual, whereas their Tiangang Sect could send fifty people into the Zhao Spirit Secret Realm. These fifty individuals weren’t like the inexperienced groups from the Seven Star Sword Sect and Golden Sword Sect. It was clear who was stronger and who was weaker!
“Be cautious. That kid has even caused the Sacred Mountain to suffer heavy losses. This time, it all depends on the Young Sect Leader. But in the Zhao Spirit Secret Realm, killing him is secondary. The most important thing is to gain the benefits within and enhance our Tiangang Sect’s strength.”
Elder Wu looked at Hong Jianqiu and cautioned him.
“Don’t worry, Elder Wu. I know what I’m doing.”
Hong Jianqiu nodded and responded, but his expression revealed little concern. The plan to eliminate Su Yi wasn’t just a response to the Golden Sword Sect, but also an issue of pride for the younger generation. Killing that guy would certainly make them famous throughout the world.
As the people in Tiangang Sect discussed Su Yi, individuals from other smaller forces also voiced their thoughts.
“Wow, this kid is the champion of the Saint Martial Assembly. He managed to escape the siege at Sacred Mountain. Now, he’s causing chaos in the Chaos Realm. It’s truly rare to find such a young talent.”
At Cangyun Temple, an elder in a red robe muttered to himself. He had been one of the strong experts who observed the arena battles.
“Su Yi? I’ve heard the name but never seen him. I’m really curious to see what he’s capable of.”
Beside the elder, a young man spoke in a calm tone.
On the opposite side, a young woman in her twenties stood, her flawless features and serene eyes making her seem almost ethereal.
“Su Yi…” The woman silently muttered his name, and her delicate brows furrowed slightly. Somehow, she felt a connection to him, though no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t recall why.
After a moment, she shook her head and stopped pondering.
“The champion of the Saint Martial Assembly, a disciple of the Divine Sword School, confronted powerful enemies from the Sacred Mountain. He and his five brothers managed to break through the encirclement and escape!”
“Such actions are a slap in the face of the Sacred Mountain!”
“I’m really curious to know, what kind of person is he?”
“I’m honored to meet him tomorrow. I must have a good exchange with him!”
“The champion of the Saint Martial Assembly? I’ll trample him underfoot and make him a stepping stone on my cultivation path!”
Different people, in different places, had varying thoughts about Su Yi. But one thing was certain—no one underestimated the young man from the Overlord Sect.
