The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood-Chapter 957 - 958: The Ancestor’s Compromise

"Grandpa, he just gathered nine dragon patterns, but it’s all about strength. If his strength isn’t up to par, how can he be valued by you?"

Zi Xuan pouted and said.

"Little Xuan is right. The Lingwu Genius Battle doesn’t just look at the strength of our bloodline power."

Zixing continued Zi Xuan’s words and said.

"I’ve gathered nine dragon patterns, and my strength isn’t something you can perceive. My mother’s cultivation talent is terrifying, and as her son, how could I be lacking?"

Ye Mo smiled faintly and said.

"Just a martial artist of the Qiankun Third Rotation, where do you think you can go? When I awaken my bloodline power, I can easily defeat you."

Not knowing the full story, Zi Xuan was disdainful of Ye Mo.

She is currently at the strength of Qiankun Sixth Rotation. She admitted that without awakening her bloodline, it’s difficult to compete with Ye Mo who gathered nine dragon patterns. But once she awakens her bloodline power, she can easily defeat Ye Mo.

"Then I’ll wait for Miss Zi Xuan to awaken her bloodline and come challenge me. Just don’t find a reason not to challenge me because my strength is too strong."

Ye Mo smiled faintly, targeting Zi Xuan.

"You guy, such a big mouth. If you have the guts, let’s compete without using bloodline power."

In front of many elders, Zi Xuan reached out her jade hand, her slender fingers pointing at Ye Mo, ready to erupt at any moment.

"Little Xuan, don’t be reckless. We’re still in a meeting. Just stay aside and watch."

The patriarch immediately stopped them. If they fought fiercely, it would indeed be difficult for them to become a pair.

"Hmph!"

Zi Xuan snorted coldly, walked to the side, and remained silent, but her eyes glared at Ye Mo as if she wanted to kill him.

"Because of Zi Xuan, instead the atmosphere eased. Since Ye Mo disagrees, we won’t force him."

The patriarch said.

"Patriarch, what about Ye Mo’s placement? And he gathered nine dragon patterns. He shouldn’t be cultivated as an ordinary disciple?"

At this time, Elder Ziyang spoke: "Why not send Ye Mo here to cultivate!"

"Elder Ziyang, this is the Longwen Hall. To enter Longwen Hall for cultivation, one must pass the assessment according to its rules. No matter how strong the bloodline talent is, without passing the Longwen Hall’s assessment, one cannot enter."

Zixing said.

"Elder Zixing’s words are indeed correct. To cultivate in Longwen Hall, all are the peerless geniuses of our clan. Among the young generation, only Zi Aotian has entered Longwen Hall. The talented disciples of the Four Pavilions fought fiercely just for the chance to enter Longwen Hall. If Ye Mo is directly allowed into Longwen Hall, it would indeed be inappropriate."

The patriarch shook his head, then said to Ye Mo: "Ye Mo, would you like to take the assessment with the talented disciples of the Four Pavilions?"

"Grandpa, I think it’s better to forget it. With the strength of Qiankun Third Rotation, even if he fully masters the power of dragon patterns, he can’t pass the assessment. I think it’s better to wait a few years, but by then, he’ll be past the age for the Lingwu Genius Battle."

Zi Xuan waved her hand, expressing helplessness.

"Patriarch, Ye Mo accepts this assessment."

Ye Mo immediately said.

First, he wants to find out who the genius Zi Aotian really is.

Second, he naturally wants to enter Longwen Hall to cultivate and improve his cultivation.

Third, it’s the Lingwu Genius Battle. Although he has a token, he doesn’t know how to participate. As the highest level genius battle, every martial artist wants to join, to see the geniuses of the Lingwu Continent.

Ye Mo has experienced many battles, from the Stone Ranking battle, then the Alliance Battle, the Six Path Contention, the Thousand City battle, each one higher than the last.

And the Lingwu Genius Battle is the highest level battle on the continent, its scale absolutely large, where one can become famous and echo throughout the continent.

"In ten days, it’ll be time for the Longwen Hall assessment. Then the talents of the Four Pavilions will compete with you. Prepare well, if you succeed in entering Longwen Hall, Elder Zi Ning’s chances of becoming the next patriarch will be greater."

The patriarch said calmly.

The patriarch’s meaning is clear: Ye Mo refuses to change his surname, thus cannot become the patriarch. Letting a Ye family member become the patriarch of the Ancient Azure Dragon Clan would surely be laughed at.

And Zi Ning is a popular candidate for the next patriarch, with Ye Mo being her son, the better Ye Mo performs, the greater the chances of Zi Ning becoming patriarch.

This is also the patriarch’s compromise to Ye Mo. With Ye Mo gathering nine dragon patterns, his bloodline talent is the strongest besides the patriarch, such a person must be appeased.

"Since there’s nothing else, I’ll leave now!"

Ye Mo cupped his hands, ready to leave, when a ray of light shot out towards Ye Mo. He reached out with one hand and caught a dragon-shaped pin.

"This is our clan’s pin, required for entry and exit."

At this time, Patriarch Zi Kui said.

Nodding, Ye Mo left the main hall of Longwen Hall.

..

Night fell, the dusk deepening!

In the room!

Ye Mo sat cross-legged on the bed, continuously absorbing and devouring the Yuan Chi of Heaven and Earth of Azure Dragon Peak, recalling the events of the day.

This time the patriarch and a hundred elders met him personally, showing enough importance to potentially make him the next patriarch.

However, Ye Mo knows being the patriarch isn’t that easy. Not to mention changing his surname, just his newly entered status in the Azure Dragon Clan, unstable position and weak strength would make him a puppet, lacking much influence.

And his mother, with her powerful strength, surely has many supporters behind her, making her the most suitable to be the patriarch.

And the more outstanding he performs, the more he adds to Zi Ning’s possibility to become patriarch. To maximize this chip, he must defeat Zi Aotian, even achieve excellent results in the Lingwu Genius Battle.

"All of this still relies on one’s own strength!"

Improving strength is the key. The so-called Longwen Hall assessment, Ye Mo knows won’t be simple. If he can’t pass the assessment, there’s no hope to defeat Zi Aotian. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

The dantian started to quickly run, energy stored in the Dragon Transformation Pond, with the pressure of life and death battle, making each part of Ye Mo’s body reach the limit.

Ye Mo knows the time for a breakthrough has finally arrived.

Qiankun Fourth Rotation, Domain Revolution, Fusing my heart with this space Immortal-Slaying Domain, how powerful would it be, all very exciting.

Ye Mo shot directly out, floating in the air, ready to start the shocking ascension of the Ancient Azure Dragon Clan!
