Chapter 1330: Chapter 157: Dispute Before the Clan Tournament (Part 1)
The Eight Desolate Clan Competition is held once every ten years, with the location decided by a vote of the Eight Great Clan Leaders. This time, the location is in the Hei Qilin Tribe.
Hu Qianqiu attaches great importance to this competition, personally leading the team to the capital of the Hei Qilin Tribe, Yongdu.
Yun Sheng, after weighing the options, decided to leave Little Yingying and Qingcheng on the Divine Realm Treasure Ship.
The Hei Qilin Tribe is not like the Hu Capital. After the experience of Elder Liu using Bo Bo and Little Yingying as leverage last time, and knowing Dugu Xiu is also in the Hei Qilin Tribe, Yun Sheng already knows this competition will not be easy.
As for Bo Bo, considering her special situation, staying in the Hu Capital might be more dangerous, so Yun Sheng decided to bring Bo Bo along to Tianyong City, the capital of the Hei Qilin Tribe.
When Yun Sheng and others arrived in Yongdu, it was already three days later. Thanks to the Magic Array transfers along the way, everyone’s spirits were fairly good.
"Tianyong City is not like the Hu Capital. It is the capital of the Hei Qilin Tribe and the largest capital on the Bahuang continent. It is the most populous and has the most beast tribes in the entire continent. The culture of the Hei Qilin Tribe is fierce, and once you enter the city, you must be careful with your words and actions; otherwise, even I, as Clan Leader, cannot save you," Hu Qianqiu said, specifically looking at Yun Sheng and Yu Shang.
Hu Qianqiu wasn’t worried about others, but specifically about Yun Sheng and Yu Shang, two women who are prone to causing trouble. He hoped they wouldn’t cause any issues before the competition even began.
Luckily, Yun Sheng and Yu Shang each had their own thoughts at the moment and ignored Hu Qianqiu’s words.
Yun Sheng had never been to Tianyong City, and as for Yu Shang, she hadn’t been there since her resurrection.
Due to some "relationship" between Yu Shang and the first Hei Qilin Clan Leader Ye Xiu, her expression was somewhat complex upon arriving in Yongdu.
Ye Xiu, have you truly been resurrected?
Yu Shang’s heart was filled with mixed emotions, and every time she thought of the man she was infatuated with, her heart couldn’t help but leap.
Before, with Hu Yan present, Ye Xiu never gave her a proper glance, but now Hu Yan had been dead for many years, and if Ye Xiu were resurrected, he would surely look at her differently.
Hu Qianqiu’s words made other Sky Fox competitors nod in agreement.
The Sky Fox Tribe Country has been weak for many years, unable to stand up under the tyranny of the first Great Beast Tribe Hei Qilin Tribe.
Along with this, the Sky Fox competitors have developed a certain avoidance towards the Hei Qilin Tribe, as they absolutely dare not go against the people of the Hei Qilin Tribe in spirit.
Yun Sheng rolled her eyes beside them, knowing Hu Qianqiu’s temperament well. This person bullies the weak and fears the strong, a typical cowardly Clan Leader.
His words seemed to advise Sky Fox warriors not to cause trouble, but in essence, he was advocating a turtle policy—avoidance if possible, especially not offending the Hei Qilin Tribe, the host country.
As the Eight Desolate Clan Competition was imminent, apart from the Hei Qilin Tribe, people from the other Seven Great Beast Tribes were arriving one after another.
Just as Hu Qianqiu’s words fell, a dazzling light flashed from the Magic Array, and more than ten people emerged from the Magic Array. The Magic Array where the Sky Fox Tribe Country stood was the largest one among several tribes, and besides them, many others from various tribes were arriving continuously.
This tribe that appeared had a similar number of people as the Sky Fox Tribe, but their size was two to three times larger than the Sky Fox Tribe. Each of them was over two meters tall with gray-green skin and flat noses like wild boars, and every step they took echoed with a thunderous sound.
It was indeed the people from the Bimong Tribe.
Among these more than ten people, Yun Sheng only recognized one, the Young Clan Chief of the Bimong Tribe, Rita.
Rita also spotted Yun Sheng in the crowd, initially surprised to see Yun Sheng, thinking she was hallucinating since Yun Sheng should have already died in the Bahuang Mountain Range.
But the surprise only lasted a moment, and Rita nodded friendly towards Yun Sheng. Due to the Bimong Inheritance Pillar incident last time, they were somewhat acquainted, and Rita even owed Yun Sheng a favor.
Yun Sheng paid more attention to the middle-aged female Bimon standing in front of Rita.
This female Bimon was several inches taller than Rita, even comparable to an average male Bimon.
Her skin was gray-green like granite, her face as ugly as a typical Bimon, her thick hands thicker than Yun Sheng’s waist, full of immense energy.
"Chief Lipa, long time no see." When Hu Qianqiu saw the Bimong Tribe, his eyebrows slightly furrowed but his face was radiant as if seeing an old friend.
Hu Qianqiu very much dislikes the Bimong Clan.
Although the Sky Foxes are the weakest among the Eight Desolate Beast Clans, they have always prided themselves as the most handsome and charming group among the Eight Beast Tribes, and indeed, most of the Sky Fox Tribe members are handsome men and beautiful women.
On the other hand, each member of the Bimong is rough and unappealing, and Bimong people even dislike bathing; they have an unpleasant odor when approached, which Hu Qianqiu has always disdained.
However, he dared not offend Chief Lipa of the Bimong Tribe.
Lipa is Rita’s mother, and although this woman seems rough and crude in appearance, her wisdom and strength far exceed her looks.
Fifty years ago, the Bimong Tribe, like the Sky Fox Tribe, was a Lower Beast Clan.
But then, the young Clan Leader Lipa won fifth place in the Eight Desolate Clan Competition at that time, allowing the Bimong Tribe to enter the ranks of the Middle-level Beast Clan.
Since then, the Bimong Tribe has consistently held the position of a Middle-level Beast Clan, with strength above average among the Eight Desolate Beast Tribes.
Hu Qianqiu and other Sky Fox Elders’ greatest goal in this Eight Desolate Clan Competition is to maintain the position of a Lower Beast Clan while striving for the position of a Middle-level Beast Clan.
In this situation, the three major beast tribes, including the Bimong, are undoubtedly the biggest competitors for the Sky Fox Tribe warriors.
But even so, the cunning Hu Qianqiu still wore a flattering expression and showed great respect to Chief Lipa.
"Chief Hu, you’ve come as well. I heard that the Sky Fox Tribe’s members in this Eight Desolate Clan Competition have been carefully selected." Lipa had dealt with Hu Qianqiu many times and was very familiar with his antics.
Regardless of Hu Qianqiu’s flattering look, he is surely plotting for the position of a Middle-level Beast Clan.
Chief Lipa glanced at the group of Sky Fox warriors behind Hu Qianqiu, whose looks and demeanor were above average, especially Yun Sheng and Yu Shang, whose appearances and demeanor were particularly striking.
With Chief Lipa’s discernment, it’s not hard to tell these two are likely the main forces of the Sky Fox Tribe in this competition.
