I Started As the Qin Family Patriarch and Was Bound to the Selection System

The battle for the Dragon Ranking has ended.The next day, the Dragon Ranking Competition began, and people from various forces flocked to the spectator stands.

The North Nether Immortal Lord glanced at Qin Yi before quickly looking away. He surveyed the Cultivators, his majestic voice ringing out.

”Today marks the start of the Dragon Ranking Competition. The rules are the same as the Tiger Ranking Competition.”

”The first-place winner of the dragon ranking will be rewarded with one Immortal Venerable Grade Immortal Artifact and three Immortal Venerable Grade Martial Skills.”

”The second-place prize for the dragon ranking is...”

”...”

Just then, Immortal Lord Ziyang looked worried and asked, ”Qin Yi, you rejected the North Nether Immortal Lord yesterday; that was a real slap in the face to him.”

”Why don’t you leave Beiming City now while the Beiming Immortal Gathering hasn’t ended yet, just in case the North Nether Immortal Lord tries to move against you?”

Immortal Lord Huoyun said anxiously, ”That’s right, Patriarch Qin, you should leave Beiming City immediately.”

”You must realize that the North Nether Immortal Lord is a powerhouse at the Ninth Level of Immortal Venerable Realm. He is many times stronger than Immortal Venerable Qian Yuan.”

In their hearts, they believed that while Qin Yi could hold his own against Immortal Venerable Qian Yuan, the North Nether Immortal Lord was a Ninth Level of Immortal Venerable Realm expert.

With Qin Yi’s First Level Immortal Venerable Realm cultivation, he likely wouldn’t be a match for the North Nether Immortal Lord.

Qin Yi smiled slightly and said, ”Immortal Lord Ziyang, Immortal Lord Huoyun, don’t worry.”

”Since I dared to reject the North Nether Immortal Lord, I’m not afraid of him attacking me. Rest assured, the North Nether Immortal Lord can’t do anything to me.”

Water Dragon Turtle said with a laugh, ”Qin Yi is right. With his current strength, the North Nether Immortal Lord can’t do a thing to him.”

”If the North Nether Immortal Lord dares to move against Qin Yi, we wouldn’t mind teaching him a lesson in public.”

Immortal Lord Ziyang and Immortal Lord Huoyun looked at each other, both seeing the disbelief in the other’s eyes.

Water Dragon Turtle actually said that the North Nether Immortal Lord, a Ninth Level of Immortal Venerable Realm expert, was no match for Qin Yi.

However, seeing Water Dragon Turtle’s confident expression, it didn’t seem like he was lying.

Furthermore, regarding a matter as important as Qin Yi’s life, Water Dragon Turtle wouldn’t joke about it.

Immortal Lord Ziyang and Immortal Lord Huoyun couldn’t help but wonder: could Qin Yi really contend with a Ninth Level of Immortal Venerable Realm North Nether Immortal Lord with only a First Level Immortal Venerable Realm cultivation?

Soon, the North Nether Immortal Lord finished announcing the ranking rewards and said in a deep voice, ”Alright, the Dragon Ranking Competition officially begins now.”

Hearing this, the Cultivators on the spectator stands looked excited, and some shouted:

”Charge! The Dragon Ranking Competition has started! I’m going to claim a stage!”

Immediately after, another Immortal Venerable Realm powerhouse moved, landing on a stage below.

Huang Jiyun moved and landed on Stage One. He looked up at Immortal Venerable Qian Yuan and said:

”Qian Yuan, a hundred years have passed. I wonder if your strength has improved at all. Do you dare come down and fight me?”

To curry favor with Qin Yi, Huang Jiyun wanted to use the Dragon Ranking Competition to teach Immortal Venerable Qian Yuan a lesson.

Faced with such a provocation from Huang Jiyun, Qian Yuan’s face on the spectator stand darkened, a cold killing intent flashing in his eyes.

Qian Yuan moved and landed on Stage Two, cold snorting, ”Huang Jiyun, I’ll let you be arrogant for a while.”

”Once my cultivation breaks through to the Immortal Venerable Seventh Realm, I’ll definitely show you what’s what.”

At the same time, he secretly resolved that once he obtained the Qin Family’s terrifying military formation, he would definitely wipe out the Huangji Aristocratic Family.

Huang Jiyun’s eyes were filled with disdain as he said, ”Qian Yuan, by the time you break through to the Immortal Venerable Seventh Realm...”

”...I’ll have already broken through to the Immortal Venerable Seventh Realm long before. You still won’t be my match.”

Seeing that Immortal Venerable Qian Yuan didn’t dare to fight him, Huang Jiyun thought to himself, ”What a pity. I didn’t get to properly teach this fellow Qian Yuan a lesson this time.”

Then, he quietly waited on Stage One for the Dragon Ranking Competition to end... A day later, the Dragon Ranking Competition concluded. The first place on the dragon ranking was Huang Jiyun, followed by Immortal Venerable Realm powerhouses like Qian Yuan and Tang Zhentian.

The North Nether Immortal Lord surveyed the stages below and said in a deep voice, ”Since there are no more Immortal Venerable Realm Cultivators challenging each other...”

”...then I declare that the Dragon Ranking Competition ends here.”

Then, with a wave of his hand, a thousand white light orbs flew onto each stage.

The North Nether Immortal Lord continued, ”These are your rewards. Your ranking on the dragon ranking corresponds to the order of the stages you currently occupy.”

”Next, I will send people to deliver the dragon ranking and tiger ranking lists to every part of the Beiming Immortal Kingdom. Your names will be known to all Cultivators.”

Hearing this, whether it was the Immortal Venerable Realm Cultivators on the dragon ranking or the Immortal King Realm Cultivators on the dragon ranking,

their eyes sparkled with excitement, and their expressions were thrilled.

Soon, their names would be known by all Cultivators in the Beiming Immortal Kingdom, which was a great honor for them.

Immortal Lord Huoyun said excitedly, ”Patriarch Qin, soon your name and Hei Nantian’s name will resound throughout the entire Beiming Immortal Kingdom.”

”When they learn that the first and second places on the tiger ranking were taken by Cultivators from the Southwest Region, their jaws will surely drop.”

Immortal Lord Ziyang said with a smile, ”Exactly. The Cultivators of the Beiming Immortal Kingdom will definitely look at our Southwest Region in a new light.”

As members of the Southwest Region, Immortal Lord Ziyang and the others also shared in the glory alongside Qin Yi.

Qin Yi nodded and said with a smile, ”With my Qin Family here, no Cultivator will ever dare to look down on the Southwest Region again.”

Just then, the North Nether Immortal Lord’s steady voice rang out.

”Everyone, the Dragon Ranking Competition has ended. Tomorrow, I will hold a grand banquet here to celebrate the upcoming conclusion of the Beiming Immortal Gathering.”

”At that time, I hope that the people from all forces will not be absent.”

Huang Jiyun cupped his hands and said with a smile, ”The Immortal Lord is too kind. My Huangji Aristocratic Family will certainly be present at tomorrow’s banquet.”

Qian Yuan cupped his hands and said, ”Tomorrow, the members of my Qiantian Immortal Sect will also attend the banquet on time.”

Following that, the leaders of other forces also expressed that they would definitely attend tomorrow’s banquet.

None of the leaders of the various forces dared to refuse the North Nether Immortal Lord’s invitation.

The North Nether Immortal Lord nodded, a look of satisfaction appearing on his face. He glanced at Qin Yi and then moved, leaving the spectator stand.

Qin Yi frowned. He naturally noticed the North Nether Immortal Lord’s gaze and wondered what the North Nether Immortal Lord intended to do to him.

However, Qin Yi wasn’t worried. With his current strength, the North Nether Immortal Lord was simply no match for him.

Qin Yi said, ”Water Dragon Turtle, Hei Nantian, let’s head back.”

Then, Qin Yi moved, taking Hei Nantian with him as they left the spectator stand.

The other Cultivators had naturally noticed the North Nether Immortal Lord’s gaze as well.

Their eyes showed expressions of mockery and schadenfreude as they spoke:

”Qin Yi is in trouble now. The North Nether Immortal Lord is very likely to make things difficult for him at tomorrow’s banquet.”

”That’s right. Who told Qin Yi to be so arrogant as to dare to refuse the North Nether Immortal Lord’s invitation?”

”Qin Yi is still too naive, thinking he can do as he pleases just because of his talent. But in the world of cultivation, without strength, everything is empty talk.”

The Cultivators were very much looking forward to tomorrow’s banquet. They envied Qin Yi’s formidable cultivation talent, and feelings of jealousy arose in their hearts.

Thus, they couldn’t wait to see how Qin Yi would make a fool of himself in public.
