Martial Arrogance Dragon Soul-Chapter 284 - 272 Qualifications

Through the selection process of the Burial Dragon Tower, a total of seventeen individuals had reached above the seventh level.

At this moment, these seventeen people were on the way to Saint Lake Mountain, all chatting and laughing, full of vim and vigor.

Without a doubt, they were all regarded as geniuses from the Northern Borderlands.

Over the years, there weren’t many who could stimulate the Dragon Cauldron, and these individuals were among the elite of those few.

Huang Fuhe was leading the group, surrounded by many who either sought his advice or discussed cultivation issues with him.

He was like the moon encircled by stars, basking in the respectful gazes of everyone.

Huang Fuhe, too, wore a smile and exuded high spirits.

Throughout the years of his cultivation in the Heavenly Lake Palace, he had proceeded smoothly without any bottlenecks, starting as a mere disciple and now, by the age of twenty-eight, he had already become an elder.

This time, he had triggered the Dragon’s Chant eight times, climbed to the ninth level of the Burial Dragon Tower, and was going to discuss the Dao with the ancestors at Saint Lake Mountain.

It was imaginable...

After this event, Huang Fuhe’s status within the Heavenly Lake Palace would rise once again.

Even many were saying that Huang Fuhe was going to become the Saint Heir, the supreme Sect Master of the next generation for the Heavenly Lake Palace.

So at this time, it made sense for others to be eager to get on good terms with him, to flatter him.

Apart from Huang Fuhe, the others felt a sense of triumph as well.

Although they were not as dazzling as Huang Fuhe, they were still considered the top talents of the Northern Borderlands.

Besides those martial artists who had passed through the Burial Dragon Tower’s assessment, there were also others who had arrived at Saint Lake Mountain through different means.

There was the Great Elder Murong Qingsong; as the Great Elder of the Heavenly Lake Palace, fully in charge of this Burial Dragon Debate, it was quite reasonable for him to enter Saint Lake Mountain.

Then there was Second Elder Yuan Feng and Third Elder Gu Ming.

These two also possessed the qualifications to enter Saint Lake Mountain.

Apart from these three elders, there were Murong Hao, Ye Xin, and Ye Tianming.

These three were brought into Saint Lake Mountain by the Great Elder, entering as attendants, which meant that for this discussion at the lakeside of the holy lake on Saint Lake Mountain, they were needed to assist with tasks like serving tea and pouring water.

And Murong Hao, Ye Tianming, and Ye Xin were to play such roles.

If it were anywhere else, having people like Murong Hao and Ye Tianming serve tea and pour water would naturally be seen as beneath them.

After all, their status was much higher than that of ordinary people.

But this was Saint Lake Mountain, and the geniuses gathered for this Burial Dragon Debate were exceptional, with the ancestors themselves participating.

Therefore, Murong Hao and Ye Tianming also valued this opportunity.

If it weren’t for the fact that the Great Elder Murong Qingsong was Murong Hao’s father, they would not have had the chance to enter Saint Lake Mountain at all...

Shortly afterward, the group arrived at the summit of Saint Lake Mountain.

The mountain breeze was gentle.

The wind at the peak, contrary to the waist of the mountain, was not as strong.

Under the clear sky, the holy lake mirrored the blue heavens and white clouds, sacred and beautiful.

Everyone couldn’t help but be captivated by the pleasant beauty before them.

Just then, they suddenly noticed a person sitting beside the holy lake not far away.

This person was clearly not the elder of the Heavenly Lake Palace, but a young man!

"It’s Qin Qing!"

Murong Hao’s pupils shrank sharply.

Ye Tianming and the others were also looking at Qin Qing with surprise.

"How could it be him?"

"He didn’t even enter the Burial Dragon Tower, yet he has come to Saint Lake Mountain?"

Surprised voices arose from the crowd.

"Qin Qing!"

Murong Hao bellowed, walking towards Qin Qing. Pointing at him, he demanded angrily, "How come you are here?"

"Do you know what place this is?"

"This is the Saint Lake Mountain of Heavenly Lake Palace, where outsiders are not allowed to intrude! You daring to trespass into our sacred ground of Heavenly Lake Palace is a capital offense, do you understand?" 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

Murong Hao looked at Qin Qing coldly.

Ye Xin and Ye Tianming also followed him over.

"Qin Qing, I know... although you really want to enter Saint Lake Mountain and join us in the Burial Dragon Debate. But you don’t have the qualifications, do you understand?" Ye Tianming also pointed at Qin Qing, his tone scolding.

Qin Qing was originally meditating with his eyes closed.

The sudden clamor disturbed him, inevitably causing irritation in his heart.

Because he was at a crucial moment in his cultivation.

Immediately after, Qin Qing opened his eyes.

He stood up and looked towards Ye Tianming and Murong Hao.

"I don’t have the qualifications to be here? Then do you?"

Qin Qing knew that neither Ye Tianming nor Murong Hao had managed to stimulate the Dragon Cauldron.

"I stimulated the Dragon Cauldron, and even induced nine Dragon’s Chants. If I don’t have the qualifications to be here, then on what grounds do you?"

"If I’m not mistaken, neither of you two managed to stimulate the Dragon Cauldron, so how could you be here?"

Qin Qing’s words made both Ye Tianming and Murong Hao’s expressions turn awkward.

Because what Qin Qing said was true, indeed they had failed to stimulate the Dragon Cauldron, and their presence here relied purely on other means.

Huang Fuhe and the others hadn’t mentioned it, but Qin Qing bringing it up still made them lose face.

"We’re here by the arrangements of Heavenly Lake Palace! There’s no need for you, Qin Qing, to worry about that," Murong Hao sneered, turning to call out to his father, "Father, this Qin Qing has trespassed into our Sect’s sacred ground, and his crime deserves death! Now, let me do it, I’ll capture this boy!"

Murong Hao’s face was full of sneers, and before his words even finished, his hand was already reaching out to capture Qin Qing.

Spiritual Power surged around him, a black spiritual force shaped into a giant spiritual hand, enveloping Qin Qing.

His move was like an eagle trying to catch a chick, aiming to grab Qin Qing and then lift him directly.

In Murong Hao’s view, Qin Qing might indeed have decent talent, but after all, he was still so young, and as a Loose Cultivator, his strength was surely just average; otherwise, he wouldn’t have remained obscure in the Northern Borderlands for so many years.

On the other hand, Murong Hao had long want to strike Qin Qing; he was quite annoyed with him, because Qin Qing had arrived at Saint Lake Mountain with Ye Xin.

Now that Ye Xin was Murong Hao’s woman, naturally in front of his woman, he was eager to show off his might, to defeat the man who had a past with her.

Although in these past few days, Murong Hao had learned that Ye Xin was still untouched, there could still have been some unclear, indescribable relationship between the two.

Qin Qing sneered inwardly, watching the giant spiritual hand that Murong Hao had sent towards him, making no move to dodge.

Murong Hao’s face showed even more pleasure, thinking Qin Qing knew he was no match and simply gave up resisting.

Many others shared this same opinion.

However!

They had all greatly underestimated Qin Qing.

"A Great Martial Master from the Divine Might Realm dares to show off in front of me?"

With a cold snort, Qin Qing’s spiritual power surged, and he sent his hand striking directly towards Murong Hao...
