Chapter 1734: Chapter 881: Grand Event
"Let’s get back to the matter at hand, don’t get sidetracked..."
"Oh, by the way, why can Junior Brother participate? Is it a spot given by Elder Master Xun?"
"I guess so."
"Why?"
"Junior Brother is good at Formation, isn’t he."
"No kidding, do you really need to say that? But..." the disciple hesitated, "This is a Foundation Establishment Late Stage competition, and the opponents are a tier above us, all of them are the top Formation geniuses from the entire Qian Learning State Boundary, even the Four Great Sects are involved, how can we compete?"
His words silenced everyone.
Even if they believed Junior Brother’s Formation skills were extraordinary, they wouldn’t be so arrogant as to think he was better than all the Formation geniuses in the Qian Learning State Boundary.
Moreover, these are Formation geniuses who are a tier above them.
This is in the Qian Learning State Boundary, where families gather and sects are numerous, with exceptional Superior-Grade Heavenly Prides as numerous as fish crossing the river.
Everyone felt a bit worried.
Cheng Mo, however, didn’t care about that much, "Since Elder Master Xun allowed Junior Brother to participate, he must have already considered it, we don’t need to worry."
"Besides, in my opinion, with Junior Brother’s abilities, he’s not much worse than the so-called geniuses from other sects."
Cheng Mo had been mingling with Mo Hua for a long time, and had a "mysterious confidence" in Mo Hua.
He then added, "Of course, if Junior Brother wins, it means he’s impressive, and if he loses, it’s just because he’s disadvantaged by his young age and low cultivation, not because he’s less skilled!"
Anyway, according to him, Mo Hua, being a tier younger, loses but still wins, and winning is an even greater win.
A group of disciples nodded in agreement, "Exactly, exactly!"
On the other side, Murong Caiyun and Shangguan Xu, who were familiar with Mo Hua, looked a bit stunned.
"Is that... Mo Hua?"
"Seems like it..."
"How did Mo Hua participate in the competition?"
Everyone looked at each other in confusion.
"Did he sneak in himself?"
"How could that be? The Array Discussion Conference is no child’s play, and the identity checks are very strict."
"Was it... the Sect Leader or Ancestor who made an exception and gave him a spot?"
"Why?"
Shangguan Xu seemed thoughtful.
Murong Caiyun’s heart skipped a beat.
She could almost conclude that this must be Ancestor Xun’s intention.
And the Ancestor wouldn’t do anything without meaning.
Allowing Mo Hua to participate means that in his heart, Mo Hua has the strength to compete for a place for Taixu Gate.
Murong Caiyun tightly clenched her fists.
The Murong family and Taixu Gate share weal and woe, and she is also Taixu Gate’s "senior sister" of this generation, bearing heavy responsibility.
Yet even if she fought with all her might, she could only achieve this much at the moment.
In this final round, it’s about Formation, and she is powerless, only able to watch.
But if Mo Hua takes action...
In Murong Caiyun’s heart, an inexplicable sense of relief was born, along with an inexplicable anticipation...
...
On the high stage.
Wenren Wan also saw Mo Hua.
She was direct in her purpose, originally not looking at anyone but staring at Mo Hua.
As soon as Mo Hua appeared, Wenren Wan’s expression brightened, immediately pointing it out to Yu Er, "Yu Er, look, Brother Mo is there."
Yu Er saw Mo Hua, his eyes sparkled, and he couldn’t help but clap his hands happily, wanting to cheer Mo Hua on.
At this moment, a cold and biting voice rang out:
"Standing improperly, sitting improperly, so young with no manners, how can you possibly take on the Family Head’s responsibilities in the future?"
The speaker was a female Elder dressed in green, heavily made-up.
She was also of the Shen Family, married into the Shangguan Family, and was the same female Elder who repeatedly made things difficult for Wenren Wan at the last banquet.
Such difficulties were within Wenren Wan’s expectations.
Since she came to observe with the Shangguan Family, she knew such things were inevitable, so she treated the harsh words as wind passing by, paying them no mind.
This female Elder, already petty, felt even more resentful after being ignored.
Seeing that Wenren Wan didn’t acknowledge her, she then turned her attention to Yu Er.
When Yu Er caught her gaze, it was as if he’d been stung by a venomous bee, immediately retreating in fear.
But soon Yu Er remembered Mo Hua’s advice:
A real man should stand tall and be righteous, as long as you have a clear conscience, you should fear no one!
Courage was born again in Yu Er’s heart, and he quietly peeked out, imitating Mo Hua by making a mocking face at the female Elder.
This unexpected move shocked the female Elder.
Just as she was about to glare at Yu Er, Yu Er had already wisely retracted, burying his face in his mother’s embrace, giggling.
Wenren Wan was momentarily stunned but couldn’t help but smile with pursed lips afterward.
Only the female Elder was trembling with rage, her powder-coated face turning pale.
In her heart, the families of Shangguan Yi and Shangguan Yu were weak in temperament, unfit to inherit the position of Shangguan Family Head.
Only after Shangguan Yi’s family is finished would this position be vacant, and then her own children would have more opportunities in the future.
But who would have thought, this formerly timid little brat actually dared to show off in front of her now!
The green-clad female Elder was filled with hatred, but at this moment, she could only silently fume, not daring to really do anything to Yu Er.
And all of this was observed by Shang Che from his seat.
He didn’t care about the actions of this female Elder from the Shen Family.
Instead, it was Yu Er, this child, who was so lively, even appearing somewhat "naughty," almost like a "normal child."
Shang Che frowned slightly.
Could the Ancestor’s prophecy be wrong...
Has Yu Er’s great tribulation already dissipated?
Shang Che was deep in thought.
