Chapter 401: Chapter 401 Jing Yan’s Plan Chapter 401: Chapter 401 Jing Yan’s Plan Inside the main hall of North Peak, about a dozen figures were seated.

The atmosphere seemed somewhat oppressive.

The North Peak Master, Zhao Qi, wore a dark yellow robe, and at the moment, his eyebrows were slightly furrowed as he looked at the other martial artists seated in the great hall.

These martial artists were all students of North Peak, among whom were several older students.

Although these older martial artists were also students, they were part of North Peak’s management team and assisted the Peak Master in the day-to-day running of North Peak.

“This time at the Twin Peaks Summit, the first candidate representing our North Peak will be Lu Yong!”

“The second candidate is definitely Wen Yu, right?”

“Gentlemen, who do you think we should choose as the third candidate to represent North Peak?”

Peak Master Zhao Qi’s deep voice echoed in the great hall.

The Twin Peaks Summit was imminent, and as the City Lord of North Peak, Zhao Qi’s mood had also been very heavy recently.

The Twin Peaks Summit, held once every ten years, saw North Peak defeated by South Peak in the previous summit.

In fact, it wasn’t just the last one—North Peak had lost to South Peak in the summit before that as well.

North Peak had consecutively lost to South Peak at the Twin Peaks Summit for two editions, and if North Peak were to lose again at this summit, it would amount to three straight defeats.

As the Peak Master of North Peak, Zhao Qi naturally felt anxious.

With North Peak facing three consecutive defeats, it was not hard to imagine that in the coming ten years, North Peak would undoubtedly become the subject of ridicule.

And that South Peak Master, he would probably tease Zhao Qi every time he saw him about this matter!

The aforementioned Wen Yu and Lu Yong were the leading talents of the North Peak’s students under the age of fifty; both of them were at the Late Dao Spirit Realm stage of cultivation.

Lu Yong was over forty years old, while Wen Yu was close to forty.

Lu Yong and Wen Yu were present within the hall.

Though they were not young, they looked relatively youthful.

This was normal.

The higher a martial artist’s realm, the longer their lifespan.

A martial artist at the Dao Spirit Realm could typically live to over 200 years.

In other words, the aging process of a martial artist was far slower than that of ordinary people.

Of course, martial artists who broke through more quickly due to higher talent tended to look younger.

There was definitely a significant difference in appearance between martial artists who reached the Innate realm at the age of fifty or sixty and those who reached it in their twenties or thirties.

After Peak Master Zhao Qi’s inquiry, the great hall fell somewhat silent.

For a while, no one spoke.

Choosing the third candidate was truly a difficult decision.

Among the North Peak students under fifty years old, Wen Yu and Lu Yong were the most outstanding.

Below them, there was a group of students at the Middle Dao Spirit Realm stage, some of whom were close to reaching the Late Stage.

However, according to the information they had, there were three students at South Peak who had reached the Late Dao Spirit Realm stage.

Which meant that whoever North Peak chose as their third candidate would likely be doomed to defeat.

For this reason, selecting the third candidate was challenging.

“You all recommend someone!

We can’t possibly only send two people from North Peak to fight, can we?” Zhao Qi sighed lightly before speaking again.

Although the outcome of the battle for the third candidate was already predictable, someone still had to be sent.

Otherwise, North Peak would become the laughingstock of the entire Dao Yi Academy; unable to even present three students worthy of combat.

Even if they lost the battle, that would be far more respectable than not being able to send anyone at all.

“Great Peak Master, Duan Lin should be among the stronger ones in the Middle Dao Spirit Realm students!” an older martial artist said in the great hall.

Duan Lin, whom he mentioned, had a certain reputation in North Peak.

He was at the Middle Dao Spirit Realm stage of cultivation, nearing the Late Stage.

“Indeed!

It would be appropriate for Junior Brother Duan Lin to fight.”

“What’s appropriate or inappropriate?

Junior Brother Duan Lin is only at the Middle Dao Spirit Realm stage of cultivation.

South Peak will certainly send three students at the Late Dao Spirit Realm.

No matter who Duan Lin faces, defeat is certain.” Someone spoke in a disinterested tone.

“Alright!

The third candidate will be Duan Lin!” Zhao Qi declared with a wave of his hand.

“Great Peak Master!

Jing Yan is here; he says you want to see him.” At that moment, a student from outside the great hall came in and addressed Zhao Qi with a bow.

“Jing Yan?

Let him in!” Zhao Qi nodded.

Upon hearing Jing Yan’s name, the faces of most present showed a change in expression.

Jing Yan had quite a reputation.

First, he obtained the Golden Order by passing the Sky Crossing Array, and later, he had a conflict with the Criminal Punishment Hall of Dao Yi Academy.

For that incident, Vice Chancellor Fang Ruoyu had even taken action to kill a Lower Elder of the academy.

A few breaths later, Jing Yan entered from outside.

Jing Yan had not previously met Peak Master Zhao Qi.

Although he had joined North Peak for over a year, he truly had not seen Zhao Qi.

However, upon entering the great hall and quickly scanning the room, Jing Yan could tell who the Peak Master was.

Clearly, in this great hall, only one person sat at the topmost seat.

“Greetings, Great Peak Master.” Jing Yan bowed to Zhao Qi.

“Hmm,” Zhao Qi nodded.

“Jing Yan, I’ve called you here because of the incident with the destruction of the Zhang Min Stele.

I know that your stele was destroyed by South Peak’s Deng Qing.

How do you plan to handle this matter?”

Zhao Qi looked at Jing Yan as he asked.

“Great Peak Master, I plan to find Deng Qing and ask him why he destroyed my stele,” Jing Yan said directly, holding back his anger.

The fact that Deng Qing had smashed his stele was something Jing Yan couldn’t just let slide.

If Deng Qing did not give a satisfactory explanation, Jing Yan surely wouldn’t settle the matter peacefully.

If it weren’t for knowing that Peak Master Zhao Qi wanted to see him, Jing Yan might have gone to South Peak to find Deng Qing as soon as he learned of the destruction of his stele.

Hearing Jing Yan’s words, many in the great hall shifted uneasily.

In their eyes, Jing Yan’s statement seemed arrogant, as if he were overestimating himself!

You’re going to find Deng Qing to question him?

Deng Qing smashing your stele is his way of provoking you!

Going to find Deng Qing would be like a lamb walking into a tiger’s den, with no return.

Let alone seeking out Deng Qing—even if you stayed quietly in North Peak, Deng Qing might still come looking for trouble again.

These people also recognized Jing Yan’s rapid cultivation progress; more than a year ago, he was already able to kill Qian Zhen at the Early Dao Spirit Realm stage.

But Deng Qing was at the Late Dao Spirit Realm, rumored to be nearing the Dao Spirit Realm Peak.

To put it bluntly, if Deng Qing wanted to kill Qian Zhen, he could likely do it with a single blow, ten times over.

You, a martial artist at the Innate realm, are going to question someone near the Dao Spirit Realm Peak?

Isn’t that just asking for trouble?

Even subtle snickers could be heard in the great hall.

Jing Yan frowned and glanced at those people but said nothing.

He knew they thought he was being reckless.

However, he couldn’t be bothered to explain himself too much.
