Chapter 62: Meeting an acquaintance
. As Tang Xu's voice fell, the room fell silent.
Everyone turned their gazes to Tang Hao and Tang Yuehua.
Tang Hao's eyes were bloodshot, and he was tightly gripping the Clear Sky Hammer.
Tang Yuehua, standing beside him, stared at Tang Xu with disbelief.
"Father..."
Before Tang Yuehua could finish, Tang Xu shouted, his face livid.
"Shut up! Can't you two hear me?"
Seeing that Tang Xu didn't seem to be joking, Tang Yuehua pursed her lips.
After a moment's thought, she reached out and tugged at Tang Hao's sleeve, offering a gentle plea.
"Second brother... let's be humble this time."
Hearing Tang Yuehua's words, Tang Hao's hands dropped dejectedly, his Clear Sky Hammer seemingly unsteady.
Following Tang Yuehua, Tang Hao slowly walked towards Qin Ming.
Seeing that Tang Hao hadn't retracted his spirit, Yue Guan narrowed his eyes and took a step to the right, blocking Qin Ming.
Seeing Yue Guan's movement, Tang Xu finally reacted.
Snap—
under the stunned gaze of the crowd, Tang Xu slapped Tang Hao's face, now swollen like a pig's head.
Tang Xu stared at Tang Hao with a sullen expression.
"Tang Hao, retract your spirit!
Consider our Haotian Sect before you act..."
"Father..."
Tang Hao looked up at his father, but noticing the earnestness in Tang Xu's eyes, he
fell silent again. The Clear Sky Hammer in his hand slowly dissipated into a point of light, and the eight spirit rings at his feet vanished with it.
After retracting his spirit, Tang Hao followed Tang Yuehua again.
Arriving in front of Qin Ming, Tang Yuehua was the first to yield.
"I'm sorry, we were wrong before,"
Tang Hao, standing behind her, said after a pause. "I'm sorry," Yue Guan said, caressing her lips with a soft smile.
"I'm sorry," she
said, hearing Tang Hao's words .
"Are you a woman too? You're speaking so quietly."
"You!"
Tang Hao glared at Yue Guan before him.
Yue Guan ignored him, only chuckling.
Qin Ming then spoke up.
"Elder Yue Guan, how can you so easily assume someone's gender?
Perhaps he already considers himself a woman?"
As Qin Ming finished his words, silence fell.
A moment later, the crowd, having reacted, began to discuss.
The crowd erupted in laughter.
"Yes, Your Majesty Ju Douluo, how can you assume someone's gender?"
"Indeed, Your Majesty Ju Douluo, you must respect others' opinions..."
Hearing the mocking voices, Tang Hao's face flushed visibly.
He clenched his fists, his fingertips digging into his flesh, blood dripping from his fists.
Seeing this, Tang Yuehua clutched Tang Hao's hand with a distressed look.
"Second brother." For
a long moment, Tang Hao remained silent in the face of Tang Yuehua's concern.
Seeing Tang Hao, who was nearly losing control of his emotions, Gui Mei stepped forward and sneered at him.
"The mighty Haotian Sect, the dazzling Battle Soul Hammer.
How could such a renowned Haotian Sect produce a mere idiot like you?"
Listening to the chatter around him, Tang Hao felt like his head was about to explode.
"Sorry! I was wrong before,"
he gritted his teeth, then turned and ran.
After knocking aside several Haotian Sect disciples, Tang Hao ran towards the rest area without looking back... Seeing this, Yue Guan and Gui Mei wanted to give chase, but Qin Ming stopped them.
"Forget it, two elders, don't argue with him.
Let's get back to the unfinished business."
Yue Guan and Gui Mei stopped walking.
After responding to Qin Ming's words, they returned to their previous seats.
Tang Xu, Yu Yuanzhen, and the others were slightly surprised to see Yue Guan and Gui Mei willingly following Qin Ming's instructions.
But without much hesitation, Tang Xu walked back towards Yue Guan as if nothing had happened.
Seeing his father leave, Tang Xiao patted Tang Yue Hua's shoulder and said,
"Yue Hua, go check on Ah Hao.
I'm here."
Tang Yue Hua nodded and hurriedly followed Tang Hao's direction.
Seeing this, Ning Feng Zhi's eyes flickered.
"It seems the Haotian Sect isn't a monolithic group anymore."
Tang Xu was already nearing death, and after what happened today...
There's no telling when Tang Hao will become disloyal to the Haotian Sect...
Tang Hao and his three siblings are still unmarried at their current age.
Perhaps I could try to form a marriage alliance with the Haotian Sect...'
As Ning Fengzhi pondered this, Yue Guan had already helped Tang Xu and Yu Yuanzhen complete the registration process.
After a few brief pleasantries, Tang Xu stood up and left, hurriedly chasing after Tang Hao.
Yu Yuanzhen ignored Tang Xu and looked at Yue Guan, asking,
"Your Majesty Ju Douluo, isn't your Spirit Hall planning to hold a talent competition for young spirit masters under 30?
Why don't you have a ranking list for this competition?"
Yue Guan spread his hands.
"This competition is different from the upcoming sect competitions.
Sect rankings only require a few Titled Douluo or Soul Douluo to compete.
It's easy to set a preliminary ranking list and determine the appropriate payouts.
However, the Talent Competition has too many participants, and registration hasn't even opened yet, so it's hard to say who will make the list.
So, we don't have any plans for that yet."
"That's a shame. My Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan has brought several talents this time.
I was thinking of placing a few bets on them,"
Yue Guan asked, looking towards the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan.
"Your Majesty, is Lei Ting so confident?
I wonder which members of your Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan will be participating in the Talent Competition?"
Upon hearing Yue Guan's question, Yu Yuanzhen waved to his own clan's team.
"Luo Mian, bring over our sect's talents,"
Yu Luo Mian, who was still with the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan, shouted immediately.
"Didn't you hear what the clan leader said?
Those who are participating in this competition, why don't you come over quickly?"
As soon as Yu Luomian finished speaking, several figures quickly walked out of the team.
After glancing at a few people, Yu Luomian frowned.
"Why does it feel like there is one person missing?"
After muttering, Yu Luomian looked towards the back of the team.
After noticing the figure in the team that kept shrinking back.
Yu Luomian suddenly became angry.
"Erlong, why are you hiding?
When you took the initiative to come to the family to ask me for funds to open the academy.
You promised me that you would return to the family and fight for the sect this time."
As he spoke, Yu Luomian quickly walked into the team and pulled Liu Erlong out.
"Didn't you say before that you were full of confidence that you would win a championship for my Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan?
What are you afraid of now?"
