The First Saint of Dan Dao

"Well, you've been practicing in the yard for eight days, and I haven't had the chance to tell you about the East Region Competition. I was planning to call you out directly, but I didn't expect you to come out first." Lin Xiao said with a smile.

After inviting the two into the yard and sitting down, Tang Yan began to pour tea.

Lin Xiao explained: "In this Eastern Region Competition, the cities with the highest reputation are Fangcheng, Qingcheng, and Songcheng. If nothing unexpected happens, people from these three cities will be able to enter the Qinglong Academy. The next is Yucheng, and some people think that Su Wei can be selected. Only our Yuncheng is still not optimistic."

"Humph, this is too much. They are a bunch of people who look down on others. I will make sure they learn a lesson this time!" Lin Dongxue said angrily.

"Who are the powerful figures in those three cities? Why are they so popular?" Tang Yan grasped the key point and asked curiously.

“We have always been at the bottom of the Eastern Region Competition, and we rarely participate in the activities organized by the Eastern Region. You don’t know much about other cities in the Eastern Region.

Fang Xuan and Cheng Gong from Fangcheng, Du Shu from Qingcheng, and Song Ze from Songcheng are collectively known as the Four Young Masters of the Eastern Region. All of them are capable of reaching the fourth level of the Profound Realm and above.

The young generation can have such strength, and they are considered geniuses in the entire Tingxiang, so they are the most promising. "

Tang Yan was shocked. The Eastern Region Competition clearly stipulated that only participants under the age of 25 could participate. These people were able to enter the realm of the fourth level of the Profound Stage before the age of 25. Such talent was truly astonishing. "Is there anyone who has entered the fifth level?"

"Not sure, the lowest is the middle stage of the fourth rank. This is just the information collected on the surface, and the possibility of the fifth rank cannot be ruled out. Moreover, there are five cities in the Eastern Region, who knows if there are still undiscovered geniuses." After saying this, Lin Xiao's eyes fell on Tang Yan meaningfully, and he paused and said:

"There are many fourth-grade masters in this Eastern Region Competition, and there are also many masters with the peak strength of the third-grade, such as Song Qing from Songcheng, Sun Long from Qingcheng, and your friend Wan Fei, etc. The competition in this Eastern Region Competition is more intense than ever before."

"Is it just a martial arts competition this time?" Tang Yan asked.

"That's right, we'll only compete in martial arts. But if you can qualify for the Qinglong Academy, you'll be tested on a lot of items." After Lin Xiao finished speaking, he suddenly thought of something and added, "This time, the East Region Competition will not only be attended by the five city lords, but also people from the Qinglong Academy. If someone doesn't get a high ranking, but shows ability and talent, and is noticed by the people from the Qinglong Academy, they can even be directly recruited to the Qinglong Academy."

"Is there any reward for getting a place in the competition?" Tang Yan asked casually, but his ears pricked up secretly.

"Being able to compete for the qualification to enter the Azure Dragon Academy is the biggest reward. However, if you can win the championship, you will generally receive additional rewards, but others will not." After the city lord finished speaking, he changed the subject and asked, "There are so many strong people. What do you think of this Eastern Region Competition?"

Tang Yan pondered for a while, then slowly analyzed: "It may not be a bad thing that the outside world is not optimistic about our Yuncheng.

With Liu Zhi, the number one man in Yuncheng, supporting us, everyone will be less wary of Dongxue and I's strength.

I am already at the third level of the Xuan Rank. With this strength, if the other party underestimates me, I will have a better chance of winning. This year, our Yuncheng will at least not be at the bottom again."

Lin Xiao stared at Tang Yan and said, "The ranking of the competition is calculated according to the strongest ranking. For example, if the champion is Song Ze from Songcheng, even if the second to tenth place are from Fangcheng, the first place in this competition still belongs to Songcheng. So if you don't want to be at the bottom, you must at least defeat Su Wei from Yucheng. What do you think is your chance of winning against him?"

"He has reached the peak of the third level of the Xuan Rank. His chance of winning is probably fifty-fifty." Tang Yan estimated a number.

"Dad, why don't you compare it with Tang Yan, then you can have a rough idea, right?" Lin Dongxue at the side interrupted.

Lin Xiao's eyes lit up when he heard this. Last time, in just ten days, Tang Yan had increased Lin Dongxue's combat power several times.

He also used the method that Tang Yan taught Lin Dongxue. His sparring style with Lin Dongxue was no longer gentle, but extremely aggressive. Over the past eight days, Lin Dongxue's strength has improved a lot.

Because of this, Lin Xiao was extremely curious about Tang Yan's fighting ability.

There was also a gleam of enthusiasm in Tang Yan's eyes. Finding a strong sparring partner would also greatly help to promote his own strength.

As if sensing Tang Yan's fighting spirit, Lin Xiao laughed and said, "Tang Yan, do you dare to fight me?"

"Will the City Lord use all his strength?" Tang Yan was no fool. If the City Lord slapped him with all his strength, he would probably be turned into mud.

Hearing Tang Yan's words, Lin Xiao laughed and scolded: "Go to hell, am I that reckless? How about using the fourth-grade combat power of the Xuan Rank at most?"

"Daddy, you are bullying me!" Before Tang Yan could answer, Lin Dongxue beside him shouted.

"Girl, why are your arms bent outward? Are you feeling sorry for others?"

"Daddy, you are so bad!" Lin Dongxue's cheeks turned pink. She glared at Lin Xiao in shame and anger. She wanted to turn around and leave, but she was reluctant to watch the fight. She stomped her feet angrily and stopped talking.

Tang Yan was thinking over and over again. As the Lord of Yuncheng, even if Lin Xiao knew his true strength, he would not tell anyone. He could fight Lin Xiao without any worries. He said, "A fourth-grade Xuan rank is fine."

Lin Xiao's eyes flashed. Tang Yan dared to make such a request, which showed that the threat of Xuan Rank 3 was not very big to him. He became more interested in Tang Yan's strength and chuckled, "Okay, go ahead!"

Tang Yan didn't shy away from being polite. He used all of his Phantom Steps and rushed towards Lin Xiao as fast as a gust of wind.

Lin Xiao's heart skipped a beat. How could this kid be so fast? He quickly circulated his Qi and raised his fist to attack Tang Yan.

Seeing Lin Xiao's fist coming towards him, Tang Yan smiled. His body, which was originally rushing forward, did not slow down at all, but shifted half a meter to the left.

The fist also changed its trajectory and rushed towards the city lord.

Lin Xiao's eyes narrowed. How could this guy change his trajectory at such a fast speed?

Fortunately, Lin Xiao has extremely rich combat experience, and he also has the understanding of martial arts of an Earth-level master. His advantage is more than just a little bit higher than that of an ordinary fourth-grade Xuan-level master.

He leaned his body back slightly, simply adjusted the direction, and then his fists collided.

"boom!"

Lin Xiao's punch was less powerful because he changed the trajectory of his attack. Tang Yan had also changed his attack direction before, so the power of this guy's punch should be much weaker than his.

But after the two fists collided, Lin Xiao was surprised to find that the power of Tang Yan's punch remained at the peak of the third level!

This is not logical!

In the first fight, Lin Xiao felt a little embarrassed that he couldn't gain an advantage even with the fourth-grade Xuan-level combat power.

After some thought, he realized that the only way to save face was to take the initiative to attack and defeat Tang Yan.

But before he could make a move, his eyelids suddenly twitched.

After a full-strength attack, Tang Yan didn't even take a breath and rushed forward again with his fists waving!
