“Did someone come to challenge us again?”

Thunderous Battle noticed that the person who came to him was very young. When he looked carefully, he found that the person on shift duty was a member of Beautiful Robes Hall, and he was Happy’s university mate. “What’s your name?”

When Thunderous Battle asked for his name, the member of Beautiful Robes Hall was overwhelmed by catching the clan master’s eye unexpectedly.

“My name’s Bloody Flying Dragon,” he answered quickly

He was once a former higher up in Beautiful Robes Faction, and he was in Life and Death Realm right then. His strength was among the top-ranked players in Mu Clan, but he was still slightly nervous in front of Thunderous Battle.

That was not because of his age, however. Thunderous Battle kept Mu Clan in good order. Not only was his relationship with the local sects good, he was also a very fair person when it came to rewards and punishments, as well as generous. There was no one in Mu Clan who did not acknowledge his leadership.

Besides, Thunderous Battle was always focused on the development of Mu Clan, and he was personally involved in many things, which was why he won the hearts of all.

It was fortunate that the clan prison had been built, or Thunderous Battle’s strength might have dropped out of the ranks of the top-ranked players!

Besides, what touched Bloody Flying Dragon the most was that Thunderous Battle never assumed airs when he faced the youngsters in Beautiful Robes Hall. He was incredibly attentive to them, and that was why Beautiful Robes Hall had been able to recover and develop very quickly.

“Ah yes, Flying Dragon, I remember you. Happy mentioned you when you were still in Beautiful Robes Faction.”

“Really?”

Rampaging Flying Dragon was very excited. It had to be known that he was a very introverted boy in reality, and he had always regarded Happy with respect and fear. When he heard Thunderous Battle say those words, his emotions surged up.

Thunderous Battle smiled. “Of course, he mentioned you, Bum, Puffy, Tea Words, and everyone among the higher ups of Beautiful Robes Hall. Happy pays a lot of attention to all of you, and he asks after you every day. Also, you can call me Big Brother Thunder. Don’t call me clan master, it makes me sound old.”

Bloody Rampaging Dragon instantly smiled, nodded, and agreed to it. “Alright, Big Brother Thunder. It’s just a pity that we don’t know where Boss Happy is right now.

“By the way, Big Brother Thunder, the person who came this time is Feng Zhi, a great player ranked at the seventeenth place on the Dragon Rank. He said that he has heard of Boss Happy’s fame for a long time, and he came deliberately to witness his skills.”

“Happy is not around…” Thunderous Battle scowled and sighed. “Oh well. Those people from Class One Hall just won’t stop. They want to strike a blow at Mu Clan, but they’re also afraid that Happy is guarding Baokang… Ah, forget it. Flying Dragon, get some random person to send him off…”

“Urk.” Bloody Flying Dragon had a gloomy look on his face.

“Those from the past were easier to deal with. They were all nameless challengers. But this time, the person who came has some degree of skill. I heard that he defeated more than ten powerful players before he came here. This time, he intentionally came for Boss Happy. I’m afraid that we won’t be able to send him away with any random person.”

“Then ask for Little North or the others.” Thunderous Battle pointed at the other figures who were fighting furiously in the other cells within the clan prison.

Bloody Flying Dragon nodded in understanding.

They could actually increase their leveling speed very quickly when they trained in the headquarters.

There were ten prisons, and five people were challenging them. Once the prisoner who sparred with them could no longer hold on, the players could give them medicinal pills to recover their strength and injuries while they challenged another one.

Moksha Realm NPCs were practicing with them, so they could level up even faster than they did outside.

Little North, Momo, Ancient Wind, Thunderous Battle, and some others fought for the slots to train in the headquarters, and for the time being, their improvement was astonishing!

Only people like Silver Wolf, who needed high battle danger assessments and who attacked ruthlessly searched for different targets and went to the royal mausoleum every day.

“They want to challenge the boss?” Little North asked while leaving the cell.

While he walked to the area beyond the prison with a sour look, he said with a tone that meant that he was taking pleasure in Feng Zhi’s eventual suffering, “Then let him go to our boss. Seriously, why does Big Brother Thunder always give me these difficult problems? I haven’t even reached the ninth realm in Bone-corroding Palm. I really can’t bring it to the table just yet.”

Bloody Flying Dragon was the same age as Little North, and the two of them were rather close, so he talked to him in a more casual tone. “Your Life and Death Realm martial art has already reached the eighth realm, you know? What else do you want? I’ve been practicing for ten days, and I’ve only reached the fifth realm.”

“You’re the one who went to practice spear techniques. If the leveling speed for spear techniques could catch up to palm techniques, who would use palm techniques to fight against you spear users? We’re not lunatics, you know?”

Little North cast a Bloody Flying Dragon a glance to show him just how speechless he was because of his words. “What’s the background of the person who came this time?”

“Feng Zhi, seventeenth place on the Dragon Rank.”

Bloody Flying Dragon’s words left Little North taken aback for a moment and he stopped moving.

“Feng Zhi?” Little North instantly frowned. “The guy’s ID sure sounds weird.”

“He’s pretty good. He challenged more than ten Dragon Rank and Famous People Rank players before he came here. He stated that he wants to challenge Boss Happy.

“I heard that this Feng Zhi practices saber techniques, and his Arm Strength is insane. He has never been at a disadvantage in a contest of strength. He has also shattered a few people’s weapons in the past.”

‘Shattered?’

Little North shuddered and pulled his hands closer to his body.

“Stupid challenge system.”

Little North turned his head and looked in the other direction. “Milady, help me hold the fort, will you?”

Milady was naturally Hall Chief Momo, who was the chief of Mu Clan’s Divine Martial Hall.

It was a duelling hall whose selection of members was held repeatedly. It was a hall that Thunderous Battle had specially set up with the requirement of Life and Death Realm. The qi needed for that was 320 points while Moksha Realm was 640 points. Hence, he made an assumption that Life and Death Realm would be the standard for at least half a year. No one will be able to gain a huge advantage over the others in their qi realm any time soon.

Once the clan people entered Life and Death Realm and surpassed life and death, they became core members of Mu Clan.

Under the stimulation of Divine Martial Clan, Mu Clan had more than five hundred Divine Martial Hall members, and the strongest among them was Momo.

Throw Spirit Sphere allowed her to kill without form, while Wind God Technique could increase her movement speed and attack speed by a lot, so she moved like a goddess.

Momo had relied on the two ultimate techniques to secure her spot as the strongest in Mu Clan in one fell swoop. The Moksha Realm prisoners in the clan prison were all captured by her!

Since they had run into a troublesome case, Little North was eager to fight against the enemy, but he was also worried that he would let down Mu Clan’s name, which was why he called Momo in hopes that milady would protect him so that he would not be distracted by anything else.

Momo answered from the distance, and her voice was clear and indifferent. “Didn’t Heartless Iron push that weapon of yours to the third echelon? You have a third-echelon Thousand Year Corpse King’s Right Arm and three Life and Death Realm zombie puppets, and you’re telling me you’re not confident?

“Oh well, I’ll suggest to Big Brother Thunder to have you train outside tomorrow so that you won’t waste the good resources in the prison.”

Her sentence terrified Little North so much that he quickly called Bloody Flying Dragon to run away with him.

*****

There was a person standing arrogantly in the empty field outside Mu Clan’s headquarters with a saber.

The land of sect headquarters were always places for trouble to brew. And every time something happened, it attracted countless onlookers and meddlesome people.

A restless gust of wind swept up the challenger’s sleeves. The faint chill caused that man, whose face looked like it was chiselled by a blade, open his eyes. His gaze was like cold lightning when it landed on the faces of the two youngsters who walked out of the headquarters.

“You’re not Happy!” The man’s voice was like lightning when it filled the hall.

Bloody Flying Dragon and Little North stopped on the stairs.

“What great qi.”

Little North frowned slightly and gave Flying Dragon a signal with his eyes to step aside. Then, he brought out his Thousand Year Corpse King’s Right Arm and walked slowly to Feng Zhi.

The black light of the arm was so prominent that it looked like it was about to drip down. It exuded an incredibly dense black smoke, and it looked very evil.

Feng Zhi’s expression changed. He looked up and saw a black cloud rise above Mu Clan’s headquarters.

‘There’s actually someone so powerful in Mu Clan?!’ Some of the ambitious people who had come over looked at Little North with complicated expressions.
