Ye Mo immediately returned to his training area, where he sat down cross-legged and started solidifying his training. Ever since he was promoted to being an elite league member, the combining of wills had frequently been on his mind. The act of combining wills was extremely mysterious and complex.

Normally, it was good enough for a fighter to be able to discover one type of will. As for combining wills, it meant that one needed to discover at least two wills; the thought of attempting to combine the two wills was nothing short of daunting.

Of course, finding the silhouette of the Giant Dragon was another major milestone of his training journey. It was a god-like power. Even the Luosha Evil Ghost feared the Giant Dragon silhouette—it was the Giant Dragon at the top of the Rising Dragon Pillars after all. However, even Ye Mo himself did not know how many Giant Dragons there were in the Rising Dragon Pillars. They were uncountable and seemingly endless.

Ye Mo was extremely cognizant of the god-like powers of the Giant Dragon silhouette, which had shaken the skies and absorbed all of the Luosha Evil Ghost. Perhaps even fighters at the peak of the Spirit Devour Realm would not be able to rival that kind of power. After all, even Ling’er could not easily face down the Luosha Evil Ghost.

Ye Mo tried multiple times to communicate with the silhouette, but to no avail. According to Ling’er, Ye Mo’s powers were too weak to even pique its interest. “If I could utilize that god-like power, even the Emperor probably wouldn’t be able to match me. However, that kind of power is evidently not something that I can use at the moment,” Ye Mo muttered to himself as he focused on observing his own Energy Center. “Also, there are no changes to the Five-Elements Energy so far. The hell demon said that the Five-Elements technique is useless in its early stages. Only when one advances to the Transcendence Realm will any effect take place. Looks like the only way to unlock the secrets of the Five-Elements Energy is to reach the Transcendence Realm.”

The next morning, Ye Mo remained where he sat. In the distance, wild drumming could be heard.

Boom, boom, boom, boom!

The powerful drumming was deafening enough to collapse the clouds in the sky. The spring breeze completely calmed down in the midst of the drumming. Ye Mo instantly opened his eyes, his glance darting towards the Qingyun martial arena.

This kind of battle drumming song was only heard during large-scale competitions and events in the Qingyun League, like the Outer League test and the Elite League Member selection. Other competitions of great value and prestige included the League Chief Elect test and the League War.

Ye Mo leaped up and reached for the skies as he rushed towards the Qingyun martial arena.

The Qingyun battle drums continued from the martial arena, raising everyone’s excitement as all the league members started to gather and head towards the arena. It was rare that the Qingyun martial arena was open—even Yun Feng’s challenge with Ye Mo was an exception.

This year was when League Chief Xuan Ji would select the League Chief Elect for the Xuan Ji sub-league, a day of extreme importance within the Qingyun League. For one to become a league chief elect, they had to be below the age of 20 and be in the True Energy Realm. It was extremely difficult to fulfill these two criteria, but meeting these two conditions would grant one the right to be a chief elect.

In Tianwu Kingdom, prodigies who rose to the top of these competitions represented the best talents of the younger generation. A competition like this was, to the higher-ups of the Qingyun League, a competition of the highest value and prestige. Even league members and chief elects from the Tiandi League and the Wushuang League would attend such an occasion.

At the moment, Tiandi League and Wushuang League had both already selected their chief elects. Only the Qingyun League and the Xuan Ji sub-league had yet to confirm theirs.

People started rushing into the martial arena from all directions. The number of people in attendance was far greater than the crowd that was in attendance at the battle between Ye Mo and Yun Feng. The crowd of people were split into different batches, with some Tiandi League members assigned to the Southern side and some Wushuang League members assigned to the Northern side. They all voluntarily came to watch the competition.

Even representatives from the smaller factions and clans were invited by the Qingyun League to watch the competition and to also bring their disciples to watch and learn. The disciples of those factions initially acted high and mighty. Now that they had entered the Qingyun League and witnessed fighters of the same age that were all stronger than themselves, they were humbled when they understood that there was always going to be someone stronger than them.

A short-haired girl clad in ice-blue training attire standing atop one of the observation decks looked around and asked the middle-aged man beside her, “Father, do you think Ye Mo will be here to watch the competition?”

“He is a member of the Qingyun League—he wouldn’t miss out on a competition like this. However, given the size of the crowd, it will not be easy trying to spot him.” Bing Potian looked around with a deep feeling of helplessness. This scale of this event was representative of the Qingyun League indeed.

“But I want to see him. Who would’ve thought that it would be so hard to enter the Qingyun League? I am only in the Energy Shaping Second Realm. Look at all those league members opposite us—every one of them is stronger than me,” Bing Bing pouted, feeling rather indignant. She always had a straightforward personality. While she was furious at Ye Mo for restraining her, she had not missed him any less after all this time.

“Qingyun League members are picked from the top talents of every city. They are obviously going to be something special.” Bing Potian laughed.

“Hmph, I wonder how far Ye Mo’s training has progressed.” Bing Bing continued to scan her surroundings for a few more moments before deciding to give up on the idea of spotting Ye Mo. Trying to find him like this was definitely going to be fruitless. The only way was to ask other people.

“That guy should be pretty strong by now. Perhaps he has already become an Inner League member.” Bing Potian recalled the day Ye Mo helped him kill Xiaoyao Langzi and could not help but shake his head. Someone like him was destined to be noticed right away, even in the Qingyun League.

“Friend, are you a member of the Qingyun League?” Bing Bing asked the league member clad in league attire sitting on her right. She was a girl as well and slightly younger than her.

“I am a league member from the Wushuang League. I’m also here to watch the competition,” the girl smiled and replied before her glance darted around in all directions as well.

“Brother, there is no way that I’ll be able to find Ye Mo like this. Wait until the competition is over, and let’s take this chance to ask around in the Qingyun League. Maybe we’ll be able to find him that way,” the girl said, seeing the man on her right also scanning around the area. The man and woman sitting beside Bing Bing were the brother and sister pair of the Leng Family, Leng Leng and Leng Feng.

Bing Bing suddenly heard Leng Leng’s words and could not help but ask curiously, “You are also looking for Ye Mo?”

“Yes, both Ye Mo and I are from the Limestone City. He ended up in the Qingyun League while my brother and I entered the Wushuang League.” Leng Leng smiled.

“My name is Bing Bing, and I am from the Frozen Palace. I’m a good friend of Ye Mo and took this chance to come and see him. Let’s go and find him together after the competition!” Bing Bing said, reaching out her delicate right hand.

“So Ye Mo has some relations with the Frozen Palace as well. My name is Leng Leng, and this is my brother, Leng Feng. Let’s go and find Ye Mo together after the competition.” Leng Leng extended a friendly hand as well. The two of them shook hands.

“I heard that this competition is for the Xuan Ji sub-league’s chief elect selection. League chief elects are of similar age to us, but their strength levels are in the True Energy Realm—what a huge difference!”

“Let’s take this as a learning experience. I’m guessing that Ye Mo is sitting in a corner and watching the competition as well. He is not one to miss out on this kind of learning opportunity.” The two girls instantly got along as they started to chat.

Suddenly, a huge voice could be heard from the skies of the Qingyun martial arena, and everyone fell into silence. “Everyone, the Xuan Ji sub-league chief elect selection competition has officially begun. Please remain quiet. Next up, Master League Chief Xuan Ji will say a few words.”

The Xuan Ji sub-league chief elect selection competition had officially begun!
