2532 War of words

“That’s right. After all is said and done, aren’t you all just relying on a few old fellows in their twilight years to support you? when the next aristocratic family and sect residence evaluation comes around, I don’t think you can even keep your current reputation. You still have the face to occupy so many spots for the experiential learning.” A young man behind him chimed in.

“Hmph, your Li family is only a fifth-rank family. It’s already good enough to give you two spots. How dare you try to snatch the spots from us? you’re shameless!” Behind Zi Yin, a young man with a long sword on his back said, unwilling to be outdone.

“So what if you’re a fifth-rank family? your combat cultivation, the Rong family, is only a fourth-rank family. If it wasn’t for the fact that Rong shuihong, that old man, didn’t die, do you think you could keep your title as a fourth-rank family? When the next tournament comes around, we’ll take over all of you old and weary families and sects. ” The young man retorted.

The others also began to sneer, or retorted and quarreled with each other.

After listening for a while, Ling Chuxi finally understood. The group led by the stocky young man were the descendants of the various rising aristocratic families, while the group led by Zi Yin were the disciples of the older aristocratic families, such as the ethereal sect and the combat cultivator, the Rong family.

This time, the distribution of the illusory Valley’s quota was determined by the rank of each major family. However, many of the older aristocratic families had no descendants and no longer lived up to their names. On the other hand, the newly established aristocratic families had many talents. They were at the peak of their career. Naturally, some people would be dissatisfied with the distribution of the quota. It was not surprising that the two groups would have a conflict and fight for the illusory Valley Jade card.

As for Zi Yin and ye Xiaoqi, it was only because they saw their fellow disciples being bullied that they stepped forward.

By now, Ling Chuxi had also figured out the identity of the stocky youth. His name was situ kuangjian and he was the young master of the situ clan, a martial cultivation family. The situ family was also a fourth-rank family. They had produced many talents in recent years. Among the many new families, their reputation was second only to the sword whisper Manor and the cloud Ridge Qin family. Situ Hao himself had also become the next rising star after Yue Jianqing of the sword whisper Manor and Qin shaozhong of the cloud Ridge Qin family, with his martial cultivation at the peak of the sage level.

“Don’t talk nonsense,” Situ kuangjian interrupted the crowd’s argument and said to Zi Yin and the rest,”it’s fine if you want to keep the Jade tokens in your hands. As long as someone can defeat the sword in my hand, you can come and go as you wish.

As soon as he spoke, the people behind Zi Yin quieted down.

When it came to status and background, the aristocratic families that they came from were all prestigious families with thousands of years of history. They had the capital to show off, but when it came to strength, no one could be compared to situ kuangjian.

“Hahahaha, weren’t you all high and mighty just now? Why don’t you even dare to let out a fart when it comes to fighting?” After a brief silence, a disciple from an upstart family sneered.

“I knew it. A bunch of old families and suzerain are relying on those old guys to support them. As long as those old guys are not here, they are nothing.” Another person added in a sarcastic tone.

In the face of their ridicule, the disciples of the old aristocratic families were all red with anger. However, knowing that they were not strong enough, no one dared to step forward.

Only Zi Yin and ye Xiaoqi stood at the forefront, looking at situ kuangjian with no fear on their faces.
