Urban God of War: The Live-in Son-in-law-Chapter 620 - 615: Long Nannan Enters the Stage

"The time for challenging the arena is one hour, and after an hour, the top ten spots will be determined!"

As soon as the First Hall Master finished speaking, his body had already flown back to the camp of Xuanyuan Hall. Below, the ten arenas also burst into light, with a bright glow rising from each, signifying that the Formation had been activated. Anyone who stepped onto an arena could now fight there!

No sooner had the words of the First Hall Master fallen than figures from the four great powers began to take flight, and ten Grandmasters of the Golden Core Realm had already occupied the ten huge arenas.

Among these ten Grandmasters of the Golden Core Realm was Qingya, the winner of the last talent ranking martial arts contest!

At this moment, Qingya stood on the first arena. After he took his position, a golden light rose around him, a Formation that limited the number of people—within it, only two could exist at the same time.

Apart from the first arena, the other nine had already erupted into battles, with contenders vying for the title of champion on the platforms.

Moments later, fights had already broken out on each of the other nine arenas countless times. Yet the first arena remained untouched; no one dared to challenge Qingya since he stepped up.

On the first arena, Qingya sat cross-legged in the center, closing his eyes to rest as if he had no worry that anyone would challenge him.

"Indeed, no one dares to seek out Qingya from the Yin-Yang Temple. The guy is too formidable, no one would humiliate themselves like that."

"Anyone with a bit of sense wouldn't challenge Qingya. After all, he was the top winner of the last talent ranking martial arts contest, and many strong competitors have faced him before."

"You're right, if it were me, even if I wanted to measure my strength against him, I wouldn't go up now. Being knocked off the platform once means losing the chance to compete."

The strong competitors whispered among themselves, finding it unsurprising that no one dared to challenge Qingya. It was to be expected; after all, Qingya was the leader of the talent list, and those who were rational understood that it would be more strategic to challenge him in the ranking battles to stabilize the top ten positions.

Ye Feng and others heard the discussions and looked towards Qingya as well.

Ye Feng observed from afar the femininely handsome Great Yin-Yang Master on the first arena and said softly, "Qingya's aura is indeed strong. Brother Jerk and Xiao Chubby, I'm afraid neither of you is his match."

He could tell at a glance the strength of Qingya's Realm; Qingya was almost at the peak of the Golden Core Realm, emanating an utterly terrifying presence. It seemed that Chi Jianren and Xiao Rulong were no match for him at their current strength.

"I won't deny that. I have no interest in fighting that guy. Besides, other than the first-place reward, the second and third prizes aren't much use to me."

"I already have the Silver Dragon Spear in hand. As for that Black Jiao Battle Halberd, I simply don't care about it, not to mention those Spirit Stones. Would the Chi Family's eldest son care about such things?"

Chi Jianren spoke indifferently, and although his tone was boastful, he was telling the truth.

For Chi Jianren, the sole heir of the Chi Family, his possession of the Silver Dragon Spear and Silver Dragon Armor, both top-level Magic Treasures, meant he was by no means short on Magic Treasures. He was tempted by the Golden Dragon Shield, but he knew that the item was a hot potato. Besides, with Ye Feng present, who had already shown interest in the Golden Dragon Shield, it surely had nothing to do with him.

Xiao Rulong also smiled faintly and said, "I'm similar to Brother Jerk. Those treasures aren't much help to me. We just need an entry for the Source Secret Realm, that's all."

Xiao Rulong was very clear-sighted, appearing unconcerned. Like Chi Jianren, he was almost the only heir of their Ancient Clan families. When it came to top-level Magic Treasures and Spirit Stones, they were not in short supply.

Unlike the Hong Family or the Bu Family, these two Ancient Clans were considerably larger and had more members, making resource distribution much more challenging than for the Chi and Xiao families.

That's why Hong Tianyu was so eager for the Black Jiao Battle Halberd. Resources within the clan would be shared with others, and even as the most prominent young member of the family, he wasn't the Hong Family's only hope. There were others like Hong Gaishi and Hong Jiutian, Heaven's Proud Sons of the clan, just younger in age, but not in Talent.

The Hong Family would naturally distribute some of the resources to other prodigies, and the Bu Family was just the same.

Ye Feng and Sausage Sister exchanged looks, both discerning a hint of helplessness in each other's eyes. Those Ancient Clan disciples were truly extravagant, to an incomprehensible degree.

Compared to them, the Utility Pavilion truly seemed poor.

Ye Feng couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Although he wasn't officially the Pavilion Master of the Utility Pavilion, he could effectively command it. He naturally had responsibilities there, not to mention being the Principal of the Martial Academy of Xuanyuan Nation, with so many students to support, and then there was the Northern Border Army...

Ye Feng let out a profound sigh, realizing that the forces under his control were vast, but so too were his responsibilities and burdens.

He felt an immense pressure bearing down on him.

"Little Martial Uncle, I want to go up and play too!"

Long Nannan, who had been watching the battles in the Ten Great Arenas, suddenly spoke up, her voice full of excitement.

Long Nannan had actually been observing for a while, looking eager to try.

When Ye Feng heard this, he was startled, but after glancing at Qingya on the number one arena and then at the strong contenders on the other arenas, he nodded and smiled, "Then go ahead, be careful, and if you can't win, just retreat immediately, don't lose your life."

Ye Feng did not object but merely gave some advice. At this time, aside from Qingya on arena one, the others were mostly average Golden Core Realm grandmasters, many of them new to the Golden Core Realm and a good number close to thirty-five years old in the Golden Core Realm. While they could be called prodigies, they were still too weak compared to the true top-level prodigies.

Though these people acknowledged their average strength, they still wanted to give it a try to see if they could get lucky. After all, the Source Secret Realm was utterly attractive to any Golden Core Realm grandmaster. Moreover, just making it to the top ten would guarantee at least a hundred spirit stones.

A hundred spirit stones were a lot for most people.

"Is it really okay for Nannan, that girl?"

Sausage Sister glanced at Long Nannan flying down and asked with some concern.

Although the Golden Core Realm contenders on the arena seemed weak, Long Nannan had been a Golden Core Realm grandmaster for too short a time. When it came to actual combat experience, she probably couldn't compare to many of the strong contenders present, and Sausage Sister was somewhat worried that something might happen to Long Nannan.

"Don't worry. As long as that girl doesn't challenge Qingya, she definitely won't have too much of a problem. The other fellows are quite a bit weaker than Nannan,"

Ye Feng said with a faint smile. Long Nannan's strength and realm had now reached a medium level within the Golden Core Realm. Coupled with the strength of her cultivation techniques and moves, she was almost on par with, if not stronger than, the contenders on the other nine arenas. After all, Long Nannan had entered the Spirit Essence Pool of the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm, and the Power of Spirit Essence within her was much more abundant than that of ordinary masters.

So Ye Feng wasn't that worried; it was also a good opportunity to let Long Nannan gain some practice.

Hearing Ye Feng say this, Sausage Sister relaxed and stopped overthinking it.

"Would you like to practice as well?"

"The great powers haven't made their moves yet. Everyone is waiting. After half an hour passes, the real strong contenders will likely start seizing the arenas."

Ye Feng narrowed his eyes and scanned the strong contenders from various powers. Aside from Qingya, other truly powerful masters had yet to take the stage.

Everyone had more or less the same thought: to fight as little as possible and wait until the last moment to seize an arena. The arena contest was just an appetizer; if they revealed too much of their true strength in the arena contest, it would become a disadvantage later during the point matches as opponents would certainly be prepared.

Some masters who usually kept a low profile and hid their strength very well were even more reluctant to reveal too much of their power on the arena at this time.

So it was clear to everyone that the first half an hour was for the strong contenders of the great powers to hone their combat skills, and there were also some who wanted to muddle through and seize an arena spot, hoping to get lucky with a chance to qualify.

"Me?"

Sausage Sister was taken aback and felt a bit tempted. After watching Long Nannan take off, she said, "Let's wait and see. Being in the top ten probably has nothing to do with me. Later on, I'll look for a suitable opponent to try my luck against."

Sausage Sister was quite level-headed. In fact, in terms of strength and talent, she was not inferior to Long Nannan and also belonged to the rank of prodigies. But when it came to true strength, she still fell short of the top-level prodigies. Besides, Ye Feng had already mentioned that they could absorb Origin Energy in the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm, so her competitive spirit was somewhat diminished.

Seeing this, Ye Feng didn't say anything and merely smiled as he turned to look down from the stage.

At that moment, Long Nannan's petite figure ascended onto the third arena, instantly drawing the attention of many around her.

"Who is that female practitioner?"

"Doesn't seem like we've seen this person in the Outer Battlefield, have we?"

"She looks to be under thirty, and her presence is already at the Golden Core Realm?"

People from the great powers were shocked, as almost none of them had seen Long Nannan before and were stunned by the aura she exuded. Here was someone under thirty who had already reached the Golden Core Realm, and yet, they had almost never heard of her.

Xuanyuan Hall was also somewhat shocked at this moment. Previously, due to Ye Feng's low profile, few people paid attention to his group. But at this moment, seeing Long Nannan's realm and aura, they were quite astonished.

Hong Gaishi's eyes bulged as he stared at Long Nannan in shock, "How is this possible? Wasn't this woman just at a Half-Step Golden Core Realm before!?"

Hong Gaishi was completely baffled. He had confronted Long Nannan before, and at that time, she had only been at Half-Step Golden Core Realm. How had she now reached the Golden Core Realm?

Could it be that she had been hiding her strength back then?
