Chapter 1336: Chapter 163: Challenges Facing the Sky Fox Tribe

In Tianyong City, Yun Sheng and Lu Yunshuang had just left the Dugu Mansion and only walked a few steps.

"Yun Sheng, Miss Lu, what a coincidence, I was just going to look for you... all." Lu walked over.

"Young Clan Chief Lu, it really is a coincidence." Lu Yunshuang forced down a smile. Just one look at Lu’s appearance and she knew he had been waiting outside the mansion for a long time.

Lu was stared at by Lu Yunshuang’s teasing gaze and looked thoroughly embarrassed.

"You three, where are you headed?"

Before Lu could speak, a cold voice came from behind.

Dugu Xiu walked over.

The atmosphere instantly chilled.

Turns out that after Dugu Xiu dismissed Hei Linlin, he immediately went to the back courtyard to look for Yun Sheng, but when he reached the residence he had specially arranged for her, he found that the person living there wasn’t Yun Sheng, but Yu Shang.

Dugu Xiu was displeased and stormed out to look for Yun Sheng, only to run right into Lu.

Now, the four of them stood in a four-cornered formation. Dugu Xiu and Lu glared at each other, and for a moment, Lu Yunshuang could practically smell the gunpowder in the air.

"Vice Clan Leader, the three of us wanted to have a look around the city. I heard there are quite a few famous sights in Tianyong City this time. Why don’t you take us around?" Lu Yunshuang saw that those two, the moment they met, were like fighting cocks. Afraid they would start brawling, she hurriedly grabbed a topic to defuse things.

"Exactly, I heard this Clan Competition has a new competition format. How about Vice Clan Leader explains it to us?" Lu also didn’t want to lose his composure in front of Yun Sheng and moved to Yun Sheng’s right side.

Seeing this, Dugu Xiu took a long stride to occupy Yun Sheng’s left side. Lu Yunshuang, off to the side, felt rather awkward and had no choice but to move to stand next to Lu.

The four of them walked together, handsome men and beautiful women, instantly drawing countless gazes.

Especially in Tianyong City, many people recognized Dugu Xiu’s identity.

The Hei Qilin Tribe was open in their customs; quite a few girls directly threw flirty looks at Dugu Xiu right on the street.

Dugu Xiu kept his handsome face cold, too lazy to pay them any mind.

A noblewoman of the Hei Qilin Tribe approached from the opposite side. When she saw Dugu Xiu, her eyes suddenly lit up.

"Vice Clan Leader." The woman was bold, stepping forward to take the initiative to strike up a conversation.

Dugu Xiu didn’t have any particular impression of the woman in front of him; he only perfunctorily nodded.

"I am Li Liqing of the Li Mansion, representing the Hei Qilin Tribe in the competition this time. At the last internal selection of the tribe, Vice Clan Leader even praised my Whip Technique." It was obvious the woman had a good impression of Dugu Xiu.

Unfortunately, the falling flower is willing but the running water is heartless. Dugu Xiu didn’t even give her a proper look, just left her standing where she was and walked off.

"Who were the two women beside Vice Clan Leader? Especially that one in white." Li Liqing had a distinguished background; her father was one of the elders of the Hei Qilin Tribe, and her own strength had reached Emperor Level. Within the Hei Qilin Tribe, aside from Hei Linlin, she could also be considered a prominent figure.

The first time she saw Dugu Xiu, she had fallen for his wild and cold demeanor, but unfortunately he had never looked at her seriously.

Dugu Xiu had always been indifferent to the women of the tribe, yet just now, toward that white-clad woman walking with him, his protectiveness was obvious. Even a fool could see that the Vice Clan Leader treated that woman differently.

Besides, that woman in white looked like a celestial fairy; even Hei Linlin, hailed as the number-one beauty of the Hei Qilin Tribe, couldn’t compare to her.

"Miss, I’ve already asked around. Among that handsome man and two women just now, the handsome man is the Young Clan Chief of the Jiuluan Tribe. As for those two women, they’re both contestants from the Sky Fox Tribe. Also, the people of the Sky Fox Tribe are currently all staying in the Vice Clan Leader’s mansion." Li Liqing’s subordinate had found out the information in no time.

"Sky Fox? So they’re just some lowly seductive women. The men of their own tribe are useless, and they still dare come to the Hei Qilin Tribe to seduce the Vice Clan Leader." A hint of jealousy flickered across Li Liqing’s face.

"Miss, do you want me to send some men..." That subordinate made a throat-slitting gesture.

This Li Liqing woman looked glamorous on the outside, but her mind was vicious. Relying on her father’s power, she had gotten rid of quite a few eyesores in Tianyong City.

"Idiot, you dare stir up trouble right under the Vice Clan Leader’s nose? Tired of living, are you?" Li Liqing’s eyes flickered.

"But Miss, are we just going to sit by and watch those seductive women from the Sky Fox Tribe flirt and fool around in the city?" The subordinate stared hotly at the backs of Yun Sheng and the others. He had to admit, the women of the Sky Fox Tribe were really damn enticing. If he could get a woman from the Sky Fox Tribe, he’d die with no regrets.

"We don’t need to dirty our own hands with this. Have you forgotten, the arena stage of the Eight Desolate Clan Competition will be held three days from now. The Sky Fox Tribe is a Lower Beast Clan. There are plenty of other Beast Clans who would love to kill them. Come here, spend some money..." After a round of whispered instructions from Li Liqing, her subordinate nodded repeatedly and went off to make arrangements.

Yun Sheng and the others passed through the main street of the city, and ahead lay a wide open square. This was where the Eight Desolate Clan Competition would be held.

At this moment, the square was already packed with people.

Aside from the Eight Desolate Beast Clan, who could sign up directly through tribal representatives, all other Beast Clans had to register through the sign-up points in Tianyong City.

So at this moment in the square, Beast Clans from all over, as well as some Beastmen without a tribe, had all gathered to register for the Eight Desolate Clan Competition.

After all, the Eight Desolate Clan Competition was the grandest contest on the Bahuang Continent. To win glory there was to make a name for oneself across the land.

Unfortunately, for most Beast Clans, it was extremely difficult to seize a top-ten spot from the hands of the Eight Desolate Beast Clan. What awaited them instead was more often death or crippling injuries that would never heal.

Since Yun Sheng had never participated in the Eight Desolate Clan Competition, she knew nothing about its rules.

"This time’s Eight Desolate Clan Competition is different from previous years. In the past, the competition was divided into preliminaries, formal matches, and the finals. This year, the Eight Desolate Clan Competition is adopting a format never used before: arena matches, challenge matches, and the core matches. Those two Heavenly Arenas are the platforms for the arena and challenge rounds." Sensing Yun Sheng’s confusion, Dugu Xiu began to explain. As he spoke, he led the three of them toward the two circular arenas up ahead.

There were several Hei Qilin Tribe guards beside the arenas. When they saw Dugu Xiu, their faces were full of respect.

The two arenas were both built from bamboo and were about fifty meters across.

"This year’s Defenders are the Sky Fox Tribe and the Ba Snake Tribe. Three days from now, you will stand on these two arenas and accept challenges from other Beast Clans. The arena stage will last for ten days. Only if you successfully defend the arena can your two tribes enter the challenge matches. But if you fail to defend, you will lose your status as part of the Eight Desolate Beast Clan." After Dugu Xiu finished, he gave Yun Sheng a meaningful look.
