Chapter 565

While Gu Yuanshan was persuasive, and Gu Jiexing gave occasional pointers, Gu Xuanwu, the patriarch, seemed very calm. His gaze swept across the audience, examining the young children of all backgrounds.

Unlike his uncle, as the patriarch, Gu Xuanwu has always been thinking about issues from the perspective of the entire clan.

He doesn't hope that today's Lingtai will be the only one, but he hopes that all the branches will emerge with outstanding talents, so that the future of the entire Gu family will be brighter.

His eyes scanned the audience, almost every young student who was preparing to fight gathered around their elders to listen to their teachings, only a lonely boy sat in a corner, meditating silently.

His eyes suddenly froze, looking at the lonely figure, a hint of guilt emerged from the depths of his eyes.

The figure sitting in the corner is none other than Gu Chen.

Among the six bloodlines of the Gu family, he was the only one left alone, so he was in sharp contrast with the children of all the bloodlines present.

In fact, not only the patriarch noticed Gu Chen, but many clansmen also looked at the only orphan left in the Dao Shu line from time to time.

He will represent Dao Shu's lineage in the battle today, and he is destined to attract strong spectators.

Two months ago, when Gu Chen made a move in Bawu Pavilion, everyone knew that his cultivation was not completely abolished, so they were very curious about how far he could go.

Today's clan is very important to every young person in the clan, but it is especially important to this young man!

If he loses today, he will probably lose the opportunity to enter the ancestral land forever, and he will never be able to repair the bones of the sky.

And what qualifications does a person without dominance have to be a member of the Gu family?

In that case, the Dao Shu vein will be completely sunk among the six veins, and there is even no possibility of turning over forever.

All the elders of the Gu clan understand this, so they are calm on the surface, but they pay close attention to him in private.

Gu Chen sat alone in the corner, just adjusting his state silently.

The hustle and bustle around him has nothing to do with him, and to him, the entire Gu family is also unfamiliar.

Others have elders around to encourage and encourage him, but he is alone, looking extremely lonely in this environment.

But he didn't feel much in his heart, because he knew that even if his family members were not around, they still missed him.

Seeing the reunion of clansmen from all walks of life, he was not depressed, but even more motivated to fight. He must win this clan meeting!

This is not only for the sake of the grandfather who was forced to leave the Gu family, but also for the father whose whereabouts are unknown.

Until now, the elders of the Gu clan are still unwilling to honestly tell me where their father is. In this case, I can only force them to ask them if I have more voice in the clan.

Today, Gu Chen is going to give a shocking education to the young disciples of the other five lines of the Gu clan!

"Everyone is here, let's start today's martial arts competition."

The patriarch Gu Xuanwu stood up at a certain moment, and his voice spread throughout the huge martial arts arena.

"According to the old rules, young people from all walks of life come forward to draw lots and face off in pairs. The winner advances, and the loser faces off against other losers until they advance or are eliminated."

"As in previous years, there will be different degrees of rewards for young people who can enter the top 20, top 10 and top 3 this year."

"It is not allowed to use any magic weapon or talisman in the competition, and it is not allowed to kill or maim, the rest depends on one's ability."

After the patriarch finished speaking briefly, several elders took the lottery box, and under the witness of everyone, put the tokens representing all the children participating in the competition into the box.

The lottery box was covered with spiritual restrictions, which made it impossible to spy and cheat. After shaking for a while, everyone was even more uncertain which opponent they could draw.

This way of fighting is very old and requires a certain amount of luck.

The clan competition only lasts for one day. If the opponents encountered in the early stages of the competition are weak, they can better conserve their energy and have a greater chance of winning in the finals later.

But if you are unlucky and encounter a master in front of you, then your physical strength will be exhausted, and you may lose even if you could have won.

Although this method is not fair, luck is also a part of strength, so this rule has been passed down in the Gu family for a long time.

After the patriarch announced the rules, six young people representing each faction stepped forward to draw lots.

Their expressions became a little apprehensive, for fear that they would draw too strong an opponent.

Gu Chen is also among these six people, he is the only one left in the Dao Shu lineage, so naturally he will draw lots.

The young people quickly took turns drawing lots. Some of them were drawn with mediocre opponents, and their faces were filled with relief;

Gu Chen was the last one to draw lots. When he drew lots, all the eyes of the whole clan fell on him.

He calmly reached into the lottery box and took out a token at random.

When he took out the token, a name on it clearly caught everyone's eyes.

"Gu Qingshi!"

The three characters "iron hook and silver stroke" entered everyone's field of vision, and immediately caused an uproar among a group of young students.

"God! This Gu Chen is too unlucky, unexpectedly the first opponent has drawn Gu Qingshi!"

"It's really a narrow road to the enemy. Gu Qingshi only let go of the word two months ago to teach Gu Chen a lesson. I didn't expect to meet him at the very beginning!"

"Haha, this Gu Chen is really bad luck for eight lifetimes. Looking at his performance in defeating Gu Renyuan's group last time, it is still possible to get into the top 20 and get a small reward, but judging by the current situation, he has no chance." Here's the chance!"

All the young children knew about the conflict between Gu Chen and Gu Qingshi, and also knew that with Gu Qingshi's personality, today's first battle would completely defeat Gu Chen, making him not even have to participate in the subsequent competitions.

The chances of the two meeting each other in the first match are really too low. It can only be said that the difference in luck between Gu Chen and Gu Chen is jaw-dropping.

The audience was in an uproar, but Gu Qingshi laughed out loud when he saw the result.

"It seems that I'm lucky, and I can save a lot of effort!" He beamed.

Gu Jiexing didn't even look at Gu Chen, and said coldly. "Your goal is to be number one in the Clan Guild, not a waste of the Dao Shu lineage. If you draw a weak opponent, you will be complacent, and it will only appear that your strength is nothing more than that."

Gu Qingshi's face was slightly stiff when he heard this, and he hurriedly hid the joy in his heart.

"Zhaixing, speak politely."

Patriarch Gu Xuanwu returned to his seat, just in time to hear Gu Jiexing's dismissive evaluation of Gu Chen, and frowned slightly.

"Patriarch, I'm just telling the truth." Gu Jiexing replied indifferently.

"Tell me the truth? It seems that you have forgotten the trouble you caused earlier!"

Gu Xuanwu's expression suddenly became sullen.

"How can it be considered trouble? Anyway, Gu Tianming is dead or alive, and it makes no difference to my Gu family." Gu Jiexing said stiffly.

Gu Xuanwu suddenly had the urge to go crazy. Although this kid is extremely talented, he is really too arrogant.

"Okay, Xuanwu, what are you fussing about with children? Reaching the stars was not intentional at the time, and it's the clan association right now, so pay attention to the impact."

Gu Yuanshan spoke at this moment.

Gu Xuanwu suddenly felt a little helpless, his uncle really spoiled Gu Jiexing too much.

He also knew that it was not the right time to reprimand him, so he shut up and said no more.
