Chapter 130: Legion Inauguration Ceremony (1)

Peony’s long-time social connections exhibited their functions. After slamming down over a hundred medium-grade spirit stones in publicity expense, Chinacultivation.com ultimately rolled out their tremendous banner and published the news: The Xingtian Legion’s Inauguration Ceremony Begins at the Month’s End!

“Gonna be finally inaugurating the legion, eh…” In a cla.s.sroom in the south, a literature teacher was teaching cla.s.s. He cell phone suddenly rang out, and he made an apologetic gesture. Picking it up and taking a glimpse, the light of his eyes suddenly smoldered! 

For ordinary people, two years was long, but for cultivators, even Qi Condensation cultivators, by no means was it extended! Two years ago at the Four Great Joint Pools, the Nantong Province paragon had reappeared after disappearing for three years. The Vermilion Snow Incident flew into pa.s.sions again, and countless people looked towards the most magnificent genius blown in by the wind in these recent years.

Xu Yangyi experienced the Vermilion Snow Incident, slayed a successor of G.o.d Ming at the Four Great Joint Pools, and unleashed his neurons to S-rank… before he was evaluated. He had been selected by the the three powers, the Bountiful Treasures Pavilion, the Featherwood Guard, and the CSIB… Together with Chu Zhaonan in the same graduation, their combined name was the Twin Dragons of 2016.

Any industry required idols. Needed hope. Xu Yangyi’s emergence comprised why the cultivation world held a grand paragon signing ceremony once every five years. All of it was like this. 

The teacher calmly completed his last cla.s.s and afterwards drove his car to a restaurant. Inside, there was already another middle-aged man waiting for him.

“The Xingtian Legion has begun legion inauguration.” Getting straight to the point, the other didn’t beat around the bush one bit and immediately said: “It’s time for us to hit the road.”

“Yes.” At the moment, the professor’s face was empty of the cheerful talk and banter he had in cla.s.sroom. Instead, it was incredibly severe: “Both of our cultivations are at the bottleneck of the middle stage of Qi Condensation. This little county town has been our humble abode for too long. Now is the time of our opportunity.”

In a teahouse in Guifang Province, several elders wearing tunic suits and qipaos, seemingly of the period of the republic’s founding, were collected together. Their gazes were fiery as they looked at the stack of resources in front of them.

“The Xingtian Legion… Their financial a.s.sessment is valued at 837 million Chinese dollars.” After ages, an old man seated at the head leaned on his cane and said heavily: “Our Mu Clan of Guifang is very understanding of our own clan’s affairs. For us to be able to rank as a second-tier clan can be regarded as our ancestors’ acc.u.mulated merit. Mu Ziqi is our Mu Clan’s genius seen once in fifty years. A dragon must not be trapped in shallow waters. Everyone, we’ve spent more than a day discussing this matter. Right now, the Xingtian Legion’s inauguration announcement has been formally publicized to the ma.s.ses. Please, state your opinions.”

“Even if Ziqi’s talents are at the peak of the clan, he’s still one choice among a hundred.” A middle-aged woman in a qipao gently rocked a wooden fan, her voice low: “However, clan chief, this time, it’s also another five years…”

“According to our intelligence, Shanghai’s Su Liangping, Beijing’s Fang Yuansheng, Jiangcheng City’s Huang Xiao, and Zhuzhou City’s Mu Xiaoran… In this month, the scores of this graduation’s Heavens Law Qualifier will be published. The strength of these people are possibly not at all inferior to this Commander Xu. A fine bird chooses a tree to make nest in. Because Ziqi’s talents are good, he cannot be inflexible in decision because of the Xingtian Legion’s robust funds.”

“Based on what I know.” Next, an old man with a full head of white hair but heartiness in essence muttered: “Not just this. The paragon of this graduation, Panshan City’s Lu Gandang, is likewise br.i.m.m.i.n.g with talent. He also unleashed his neurons. In particular… before this person graduated, he was picked up by Master Pill Elixirist Xie Qinran. His future cannot be bound in measure… As for Commander Xu…” He hesitated to say something but stopped.

Xu Yangyi’s neurons had been unleashed to S-rank. Pertaining to ranks of this height, perhaps there were only several in China! Nonetheless, all Xu Yangyi did was seclusion! There were also rumors that Grand Pill Elixirist Fivetastes and Grand Talismancer Silverhook actually failed to have their invitations delivered to his cultivation room! It was heard that in their fury, these two grand masters hinted: In no way will we conduct business with the Xingtian Legion! 

Under these grand masters were several masters in their ranks. Below these masters, there were several tens of journeymen. The declared positions of the grand masters wasn’t towards Xu Yangyi himself, but rather the two powers of Grandmaster Fivetastes and Grandmaster Silverhook had blacklisted the Xingtian Legion! Talent was good… but if one didn’t conduct themselves with integrity, what of it?

“I also caught wind of something.” And old man on a walker sighed and opened his mouth: “Lu Gandang… is apparently very… disrespectful of Commander Xu. He believes the other has only made because of nothing more than luck. There are many spreading rumors that he said he would surely surpa.s.s the Xingtian Legion after five years. He seems to also have the intention of joining the Featherwood Guard.”

The room was a stretch of silence. After a long time, an old man mumbled: “Let us vote. We’ve also considered it for half a year. Ziqi is certain to be presented off. Our Mu Clan cannot rear this golden dragon… As for where, there must be ruling today.” 

In two years time, the world’s affairs had changed. The Xu Yangyi of that year could even be said to summon a hundred with a single call. The Xingtian Legion was ample in supplies and the popularity of Xu Yangyi then was high. How many clans had intended on squeezing his legion with people? But now, another five years had pa.s.sed, and countless newcomers had emerged. In addition to the rumors of the two grand masters’ fury, and although the legion’s power was still impressive after two years of honing and biding, it was in no way similar to its former might and awe on that day.

Thinking about it, there were many such people. Considering it, there were even more people like this. Between this time, the information of the Xingtian Legion’s legion inauguration was a blown ripple on springtime waters. Everything depended on what hope Xu Yangyi’s Legion Inauguration Ceremony was able to give all the legion applicants. The question of whether or not his flat bread would be enough to spread out.

“f.u.c.k!” In Mingshui Province, a short, slim youth slammed his palm on a table: “He’s really got some d.a.m.n face, huh… Isn’t this a compet.i.tion with my early graduation?! If he and I were in the same cla.s.s, he wouldn’t even be second!”

“Brother Lu, it’s nothin’, yeah?” A youth at the side flung a knife in his hand, not paying any mind. He seemed to be a roaming dragon: “Gab a bit less. Commander Xu is at the middle stage of Qi Condensation… This speed of realm advancement can’t be said to be quick.”

“Hehe… ten-odd years to get to the middle stage? And he’s got the nerve to be claimed as a genius?” Lu Gandang snorted: “If he advanced to the middle stage five years ago, I wouldn’t even break wind! I can’t f.u.c.king bear to see such a dogs.h.i.+t-luck person ahead of me!”

“Hold up…” He faced towards the ground and spit: “This time… I’m also gonna head to Mingshui Province. I’m also gonna join the Featherwood Guard! I’m gonna make him see what a true genius is! I wanna see if he’s got the stones to even keep on staying in this position!”

Thirty days of time pa.s.sed in the blink of an eye. Thirty days later, at the entrance of a hotel in Panshan City. From what ordinary people could see, it wasn’t unusual in the slightest. However, in the eyes of cultivators, everyone was terribly serious.

At this moment, in the sky above the hotel, several tens of thousands indistinct qi rays constructed a tremendous insignia of a sword and s.h.i.+eld. This was to inform everyone in Panshan City that the Featherwood Guard was handling business and to have solicitors withdraw.

Vroom… A GT-R was parked at the entrance. Afterwards, several youths wearing suits walked in without hardly any hesitation.

“Welcome, you honor us with your presence!” The doorman immediately bowed and opened the door. After he closed it, he headed towards the car and squeezed his eyes: “Ming A-6666, eh… With this license plate, he’s so smooth he ain’t making any friends!”

“Yeah, what’s going on today? A fex luxury cars came?” A doorman at the side said lowly: “I’ve never even seen these people… Did the newspaper not report this?”

Their voices yet to fall, a McLaren parked at the hotel entrance. A young man with a chilly face stepped out from the car. Two people in the style of a.s.sistants followed behind him.

“Hall master, because of your persistence today, we’ve tarried in our transaction with Zhuzhou’s Feng Clan.” A female a.s.sistant said, her voice low.

“I know…” Vulture’s complexion was ill: “I just wanted to see… what this kid looks likes after two years.”

Screech… At this time, an Aston Martin also parked in the vicinity. With her flirtatious style of back then, Lilac gently swayed from side to side as she got out from the car.

The gazes of the two met each other, and they didn’t say anything. Nodding their heads, they headed into the hotel. It wasn’t that they had forgotten the affair of years prior. There were people that remembered some things, and then there were some people who were more clear about that year than anything else. Today, even if no one came, they would’ve still come.

“Brother Chu, what didya say you wanted to do at brother Xu’s Legion Inauguration a.s.sembly?” Luo Sanfeng blew his bubblegum as if he was quite unfit for the suit on his body. He furrowed his brows and asked: “Did we have to come in suits? I’m gonna die.”

“It’s etiquette.” Chu Zhaonan was wearing a well-tailored suit and a snow-white s.h.i.+rt. In addition to his tall height, it made no few waitresses steal a couple glances at him.

“I understand why you hate staying at the Chu Clan.” Another agent laughed wryly: “Wearing this everyday drives a man crazy.”

Chu Zhaonan paid no heed to them. Today, he naturally come to play up and hype his brother’s initiation, even if he knew that Xu Yangyi wasn’t of his house. If the Legion Inauguration Ceremony couldn’t even arouse the interests of the major cultivation corporations, clans, and powers, things would be very difficult for the Xingtian Legion from this day onwards.

In the End of Days, resources were number one. After a thousand years of development, the cultivation world’s ecology was already totally different. A legion was an aggregate of the plundering of resources, the first step!

In particular… what the Legion Inauguration Ceremony was presently most important for wasn’t for the viewing of these people, but rather the vast-scale of cultivators! Rogue cultivators with potential! This was a legion’s backbone!

What did Chu Zhaonan have to be embarra.s.sed about with Xu Yangyi? He had delivered the Thousand Illusions, did he even care about helping hype Xu Yangyi? Was the other not unaware of the Legion Inauguration Ceremony’s importance? If the ceremony was done poorly, who would come to join the Xingtian Legion?

“I don’t know even why I said it in advance.” In his heart, Chu Zhaonan was somewhat angry and lifted his leg towards the elevator.

“Brother Chu.” As Chu Zhaonan arrived the elevator entrance, a widely beaming youth stood there. The man laughed as he cupped his hands: “This is the first time we’ve met. I’m the Mingshui Province paragon of this graduation, Lu Gandang.”

The initial stage of Qi Condensation… Chu Zhaonan faintly brushed his gaze over and nodded symbolically. Just as he was entering the elevator, he didn’t expect for the other to stand before him again.

The light of Chu Zhaonan’s eyes chilled. As the sole grandson of a deputy minister, there were handfuls and handfuls of people who wanted to curry favor with him every day. In the year the Hidden Dragon Legion had been established, it could be said that the amount of bootlickers were like clouds. There had been over a dozen rows of luxury cars parked at the entrance! And in contrast to today, where there was less than a single row?

In his heart, Chu Zhaonan was vexed; how could he have the skill to understand Xu YAngyi? His own temperament didn’t even regard intimacy. He immediately said coldly: “Is there something the matter?”

“A minor business.” Lu Gandang chuckled: “Today, I just happen to be holding my Signing Ceremony here. If brother Chu is willing to do me the honor…”

POP! Luo Sanfeng’s gum bubble exploded, and he glared at Lu Gandang: “What did you say?”

“The paragon of this Heavens Law graduation has already come.” Lu Gandang seemed not to fear him at all. Both of them were at the initial stage of Qi Condensation. The other was at nothing more than the peak. The h.e.l.l was he to be scared of?

“I was fortunate to win. Today just happens to be my Signing Ceremony.” He looked towards Chu Zhaonan: “Senior Branch Master is also present.”

[1] I’m not quite sure if I have ever mentioned this, but when I used the term “republic’s founding” it is not referring to PRC of 1950s and onwards, but of the period of 1912-1949.

[2] 大饼 - look up this term for the idea of flat bread. This line is referring to Xu Yangyi’s piece of the pie. 

[3] So the slang here is literally “he’s so 6 that he’s not making any friends!” In Chinese, in video games, 6 is a h.o.m.ophone for the sound of the word that means something alongs of “ace”. So like someone aced a game. He was clean and slick about it. So this is a pun on all the 6s of Chu Zhaonan’s car. 

[4] The word “play up/hype” is a sichuanese slang that originates to public performers. These performers would have people hype them/make sure no hecklers, etc.
