Mortal Bones

Golden Scale Competition, the day of the championship.

The teahouses, taverns, and even roadside stalls on every street in the capital of Nanchu are already crowded with people. A spiritual mirror is placed in the middle of the crowd, and everyone is talking about today's competition.

"This year's Golden Scale Meeting is truly unique."

"Not only have several descendants of the source method emerged, but there were also demons causing trouble a few days ago. Fortunately, the Youyun Mansion discovered and eliminated them in time, otherwise you and I would have been in trouble."

"And today's competition for the top spot is even more interesting."

"On one side is the third prince of my Great Chu, a disciple of the immortal Qionghua of Lutai Mountain, the favorite student of the martial god Zhu Huai, and he also has the heaven-level Guishui spirit bone. He can be said to be a child of destiny."

"On the other side is Xu Taiping, who comes from the Zhenwu Heaven where martial luck is declining. He is just a cowherd in the secular world. His sect may not even be considered third-rate in Youyun Heaven."

"But these two people are actually competing for the top spot on the Golden Scale Stage today."

"Such a situation, I'm afraid even the best fortune teller can't predict it!"

In a teahouse, a gray-haired storyteller shook his head and told a group of guests about today's competition.

"Oh, oh, here they come, here they come, the guests invited by the Third Prince to watch the game are here!"

"Don't push, don't push, I can't see them!"

Suddenly, the guests in the teahouse and the crowd watching on the street were in a commotion.

"Come and take a look, come and take a look at who the Great Chu royal family has invited."

The storyteller raised his hand, and the picture on the spiritual mirror in the center of the teahouse suddenly enlarged and landed on the east side of the Golden Scale Pond, the closest to the Golden Scale Platform, and also the most spacious and luxurious attic stand.

Although the competition has not yet begun, the monks who can enter the venue to watch the competition have already appeared one after another.

Among them, Youyun Mansion will give the two best stands in the entire Golden Scale Pond to the two sides of the championship competition according to convention, so that they can invite their friends and relatives to come and watch the game.

This is a good thing in itself.

But I don't know when the two sides of the competition began to compete with each other.

The status of the invited people is getting more and more noble, and their cultivation is getting higher and higher.

Over time, before the start of the championship test, it became a fixed drama before the start of each Golden Scale Club championship test to evaluate which side had more guests invited and more important.

"Welcome His Majesty King Zhao to watch the battle."

"Welcome His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to watch the battle."

"Welcome Zhu Huai, the Martial God of Chu, to watch the battle."

At this time, the white-robed steward on the side of the third prince of Youyun Mansion kept sending out greetings.

For Youyun Mansion, this is also a good opportunity to build good relations with all parties once in a few decades, so naturally it will not neglect the distinguished guests who come.

"At the invitation of Chu Yinan, the third prince of Nanchu, the ancestor of the Bai family, came to watch the Golden Scale Club."

"At the invitation of Chu Yinan, the third prince of Nanchu, the ancestor of the Qi family, came to watch the Golden Scale Club."

"At the invitation of Chu Yinan, the third prince of Nanchu, the ancestor of the Zhao family, came to watch the Golden Scale Club."

"..."

When hearing these names, the crowd would exclaim from time to time.

Because they found that almost all the major families and immortal sects in Nanchu were already there.

Even many famous cultivators from other worlds were invited.

This shows the prestige of the Nanchu royal family in the cultivation world.

Just hearing those names, some cultivators and drinkers in the restaurant and teahouse couldn't help but cheer.

In comparison, Xu Taiping's stand was much quieter.

Although there were many people, most of them were unknown people, and the scene was much smaller than that of the Chu royal family.

"Xu Taiping of Zhenwu Heaven didn't invite any distinguished guests today?"

"He couldn't invite them even if he wanted to, right?"

"That's true. After all, he's just a little cultivator with no background."

"Yes, I think today's match with His Royal Highness the Third Prince will end in a mess."

Even in the cultivation world, there are many snobs. Even though Xu Taiping had an extremely amazing performance in the match with Mo Yachu, after discovering that he had no family background, his words were still full of sarcasm.

Even Lu Rushuang and the others who were already sitting in the stands could hear these sneers.

Because this stand is not only extremely luxurious, but also, even if the Xuanyun Martial Arts School and several old friends who were once imprisoned in the Land of No Thought are all sitting inside, it still looks very deserted.

"Rushuang, if you had known earlier, you should have reported the names of our old friends."

An old man sitting opposite Lu Rushuang's table complained a little.

The old man had a gray beard, wore straw sandals and coarse cloth. He was the former ancestor of the Nanchu Wu family, Wu Tiegu.

"Yes, even if he is recognized, it won't cause much trouble."

An old woman with a kind face said with a smile, holding Chu Tiancheng's shoulders.

This person was Zhu Lengqiu, the former owner of Nanchu Xianli Mountain.

She had put a lot of effort in dealing with the Night Demon in Jinchan Valley that day.

"Let's not do it. You have just broken through the realm of transformation and your realm is not stable yet. It would be bad if your enemies came to your door."

Lu Rushuang smiled and shook her head.

"Besides, several friends of Taiping will be here soon. They will be able to support the scene."

She added with a smile.

"Who are those friends of Taiping you have been talking about? They are more famous than me?"

Wu Tiegu gave Lu Rushuang a look of disbelief.

"You will know then."

Lu Rushuang chuckled.

Today, all her old friends are here, and she looks much more relaxed.

"Miss, those friends from Taiping are arriving soon."

A Confucian scholar with a sword hanging on his waist walked respectfully to Lu Rushuang and whispered to him in a low voice.

This person's name is Lu Zhuo. Lu Rushuang was sent by her family to protect her before she could practice cultivation. Later, she followed Lu Rushuang and traveled to all places.

Later, Lu Rushuang opened a martial arts gym in Youyun Mansion. In order to cover up others' misunderstandings, the two of them called themselves husband and wife.

After coming out of the Blood Rain Forest seven years ago, Lu Zhuo and the others went into seclusion to break through the realm of transformation. It was not until recently that he came out of seclusion.

"You and I can go down and greet you."

Lu Rushuang was happy when she heard this and stood up immediately.
