Chapter 565

Under Gu Yuanshan's patient guidance and Gu Zhaixing's occasional guidance, Gu Xuanwu, as the clan leader, seemed very calm. His eyes swept across the audience, examining the young disciples of each bloodline.

Unlike his uncle, as the clan leader, Gu Xuanwu always considered problems from the perspective of the entire clan.

He did not want the Lingtai bloodline to stand out today, but hoped that talented disciples would emerge from each bloodline, so that the future of the Gu clan would be brighter.

His eyes scanned the audience. Almost every young disciple who was ready to fight gathered around their elders to listen to their teachings. Only a lonely young man sat in the corner, silently meditating and practicing.

His eyes suddenly froze. Looking at the lonely figure, a trace of guilt appeared in the depths of his eyes.

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

Among the six bloodlines of the Gu clan, he was the only one left, so he formed a strong contrast with the disciples of each bloodline present.

In fact, not only did the clan leader notice Gu Chen, but many other clansmen also looked at the orphan of the Dao Shu bloodline from time to time.

Today, he would represent the Dao Shu bloodline, which was destined to attract a strong crowd.

Two months ago, when Gu Chen fought in the Hegemonic Martial Pavilion, everyone knew that his cultivation was not completely crippled, so they were very curious to see how far he could go.

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

If he lost today, he would probably lose the chance to enter the ancestral land forever, and would never be able to repair the Overbearing Heavenly Bone.

And what right did a person without the Overbearing Heavenly Bone have to be a member of the Gu clan?

In that case, the Dao Shu bloodline would completely sink among the six bloodlines, and would never be able to make a comeback.

All the elders of the Gu clan understood this, so they were very calm on the surface, but they were very concerned about him in private.

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

The noise around him had nothing to do with him. For him, the entire Gu clan was also strange.

Everyone else had their elders by their side to encourage them, but he was alone, looking very lonely in such an environment.

But he did not feel much, because he knew that even if his family was not by his side, they were still thinking about him.

Seeing the clansmen of the various bloodlines reunited, he did not feel dejected. Instead, his fighting spirit rose even higher. He must win this clan meeting!

This was not only for the sake of his grandfather, who had been forced to leave the Gu Clan, but also for the sake of his missing father.

Even now, the elders of the Gu Clan were unwilling to tell him where his father had gone. Since it was like this, he could only force them to tell him if he had more authority in the clan.

Today, Gu Chen wanted to give the young disciples of the other five bloodlines of the Gu Clan a shocking education!

"Since everyone is here, let's begin today's competition."

Gu Xuanwu, the Patriarch, stood up at a certain moment, and his voice echoed throughout the huge martial arts arena.

"According to the old rules, the youngsters of each faction will come forward and draw lots. The winner will advance, and the loser will fight with the other losers until they advance or are eliminated."

"Just like in previous years, there will be different levels of rewards for the top 75, top 65, and top 8 youths."

"During the competition, you are not allowed to use any treasures or talismans. You are not allowed to kill or cripple your opponent. Everything else depends on your own ability."

After the Patriarch finished speaking, a few elders brought over the box for drawing lots. Under the witness of everyone, they placed the tokens that represented all the participating disciples into the box.

The box was covered with Divine Sense Restriction, so it was impossible to spy on it or cheat. After shaking it for a while, everyone was even more unsure of who they would be fighting against.

This kind of competition was very old, and required a certain amount of luck.

The clan competition would only last for a day. If the opponents in the early stages of the competition were weak, they would be able to conserve their strength, and their chances of winning in the finals would be higher.

But if they were unlucky and met an expert, then they would use up too much of their strength, and might lose even if they could win.

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

After the Patriarch announced the rules, the six young people representing each bloodline came forward to draw lots.

Their expressions became a little nervous, afraid that they would draw an opponent that was too strong.

Gu Chen was also among the six people. He was the only one left from the Dao Shu bloodline, so he was naturally the one to draw lots.

One by one, the young people took turns to draw lots. Some drew very ordinary opponents, and immediately felt relieved. Some drew a few experts recognized by the clan, and immediately felt depressed.

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

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

When he took out the token, the name on it was clearly reflected in everyone's eyes.

"Gu Qing Shi!"

The three words entered everyone's vision, and immediately caused a group of young disciples to be in an uproar.

"Heavens! This Gu Chen's luck is too bad. He actually drew Gu Qing Shi as his first opponent! "

"It's really a small world for enemies. Two months ago, Gu Qing Shi said that he would teach Gu Chen a lesson. I didn't expect to meet him at the beginning!"

"Haha, this Gu Chen is really unlucky. Judging from his performance when he defeated Gu Renyuan and his group last time, it was still possible for him to make it to the top 75 and get a small reward. But looking at the situation now, he has no chance!"

All the young disciples knew about the conflict between Gu Chen and Gu Qing Shi. They also knew that with Gu Qing Shi's character, they were afraid that Gu Chen would be completely defeated in the first battle today, so that he would not even need to participate in the following competitions.

The probability of the two of them fighting each other in the first battle was too low. It could only be said that Gu Chen's bad luck was shocking.

The crowd was in an uproar, and Gu Qing Shi saw the result and laughed.

"Looks like I'm lucky. Now I can save a lot of effort!" He was beaming with joy.

Gu Zhaixing did not even look at Gu Chen and said coldly. "Your goal is to be the champion in the clan meeting, not the good-for-nothing of the Dao Pivot Bloodline. If you are complacent because you drew a weak opponent, it will only show that your strength is mediocre."

Gu Qing Shi's face was a little stiff when he heard that, and he hurriedly hid the joy in his heart.

"Zhaixing, be polite when you speak."

Gu Xuanwu, the clan leader, returned to his seat and happened to hear Gu Zhaixing's dismissive evaluation of Gu Chen. He frowned slightly.

"Clan leader, I'm just telling the truth," Gu Zhaixing replied indifferently.

"Telling the truth? It seems that you have forgotten the trouble you caused before! "

Gu Xuanwu suddenly looked a little sullen.

"How can that be counted as trouble? Anyway, whether Gu Tianming is dead or alive, it makes no difference to our Gu Clan, "Gu Zhaixing said stubbornly.

Gu Xuanwu suddenly had the urge to fly into a rage. Although this guy was extremely talented, he was too arrogant.

"Alright, Xuanwu, why bother with a kid? Zhaixing did not do it on purpose. Now it's the clan meeting. Pay attention to your image. "

Gu Yuanshan spoke at that moment.

Gu Xuanwu suddenly felt a little helpless. His uncle really spoiled Gu Zhaixing too much.
