Chapter 147
In this generation, only the three of them had reached the King Realm first, gaining the opportunity to enter the Burial Dragon Court to participate in the trials and obtain the inheritance. The others were still wandering in the Commander Realm.
It wasn't that those in the Commander Realm couldn't enter the Burial Dragon Court to participate in the assessment, but the chance of passing the higher levels was slim. Therefore, most clansmen of Dragon Valley would choose to participate in the Burial Dragon Court's assessment only after reaching the King Realm.
As for those like Hearing Zi Yan and Ziyao who were a generation apart, it was even more impossible. Therefore, thinking and thinking, they couldn't figure out who else hadn't arrived.
Thinking of this, the two of them looked toward the Dragon Lords beside them one after another.
Although they didn't have the relationship between Ye Tianming and Ye Fan, their talent was enough to attract the attention of the Dragon Lords.
Unfortunately, no matter which Dragon Lord it was, they had no intention of explaining, which made the two even more curious.
"Look, isn't that them coming?" A moment later, Ye Fan glanced into the distance, saw Ziyun and Lu Li appear, and moved his mouth.
"Er, brother-in-law is also going to enter the Burial Dragon Court?" Seeing this, Ye Tianming was also dumbfounded. He never expected that the person his old man was talking about would actually be Lu Li.
Brother-in-law?
Keenly noticing Ye Tianming's address for Lu Li, Ye Fan's eyes instantly became sharp. Since when did he have an extra son-in-law? No, little Xue'er was only ten years old. Lu Li didn't look like such a beastly person, right?
"Ye Tianming, explain to me, what exactly does this 'brother-in-law' mean?" Thinking this, Ye Fan looked at his precious son. Based on his understanding of Ye Tianming, this "brother-in-law" likely had quite a discrepancy from what he thought.
282. Ten rounds of trials, future Sovereign!
"Er, what's your situation?" Seeing the two bumps on Ye Tianming's head, Lu Li's gaze became very subtle; after all, it looked very painful.
"Nothing, just a slip of the tongue." Ye Fan was standing right next to him; Ye Tianming didn't dare to say that this was his old man's masterpiece, otherwise, it wouldn't be just two bumps on his head. "Lu Li, I didn't expect you to enter the Burial Dragon Court too. Why didn't you say so earlier?"
If he had said so earlier, they would have come together, and he wouldn't have had to take those two hits.
On the side, Bu Miyun and Dian Xinlan's eyes were also filled with curiosity. No wonder they thought and thought, but couldn't figure out who else was going to enter the Burial Dragon Court with them. It turned out to be Lu Li, this outsider.
"I only found out not long ago when Dragon Lord Ziyun sought me out." Hearing Ye Tianming's words, Lu Li shrugged, then looked at Bu Miyun and Dian Xinlan not far away—two more King Realm Magic Card Masters.
Seeing Lu Li's gaze looking over, both Bu Miyun and Dian Xinlan nodded, which counted as a greeting.
For this outsider who had once destroyed Long Ni's plot, Bu Miyun and Dian Xinlan still had a relatively good impression, but it stopped there. After all, they had no intersection with each other.
However, thinking that Ye Tianming had once been defeated by Lu Li, the two didn't underestimate Lu Li either. Ye Tianming's strength was on par with theirs. Even if Ye Tianming hadn't used his full strength back then, it was enough to see that Lu Li's strength could not be underestimated.
As for why Lu Li could obtain a quota to enter the Burial Dragon Court, none of the three delved into it. After all, even if they delved into it, there would be no answer.
The quota to enter the Burial Dragon Court was far from something they could decide.
"Alright, since everyone has arrived, get ready to enter the Burial Dragon Court." On the other side, after Ye Fan and Ziyun discussed it, he greeted the four. "Remember, the Burial Dragon Court contains the heroic souls of the martyrs. To obtain the inheritance, you must pass the trials of the heroic souls."
"The intensity of the heroic soul trials will be adjusted according to the strength of the entrant. As for what kind of inheritance you can obtain in the end, it will be based on your performance in the assessment." Sweeping his gaze over the four, Ye Fan gave a final reminder. "After entering the Burial Dragon Court, you will be separated into different spaces to undergo the trials simultaneously, so don't worry about affecting others."
The four exchanged glances and then nodded, indicating they understood.
"In the Burial Dragon Court, the ones responsible for testing you are the simulated spirits of the Magic Cards once held by the martyrs of Dragon Valley—Dragon Spirits." Seeing this, Ye Tianming continued, "Every Magic Card Master participating in the heroic soul assessment needs to face a total of ten rounds of trials from the Dragon Spirits, until the examinee defeats all the Dragon Spirits or is defeated and eliminated by the Dragon Spirits."
"The strength of the Dragon Spirits will fluctuate according to the strength of the examinee. As long as you defeat one round of incoming Dragon Spirits, you can obtain the most basic inheritance."
"The more rounds you defeat, the stronger the inheritance you obtain."
"However, after defeating each round of Dragon Spirits, the strength of the next round of Dragon Spirits will become stronger, and so on."
"If you can pass all ten rounds of assessment, you can obtain the highest-level heroic soul inheritance."
"Therefore, if you want to obtain a high-level inheritance, try your best to persist in the assessment."
Hearing Ye Fan's introduction, the four, including Lu Li, had a rough understanding of the Burial Dragon Court's trials.
"Old man, just wait. This time, I will definitely pass the ten rounds of trials and obtain the highest-level inheritance!" Ye Tianming patted his chest and guaranteed.
As for Bu Miyun and Dian Xinlan, although they didn't say anything, their eyes were also full of heat. Clearly, their goals were all the highest-level inheritance.
However, the gazes of several Dragon Lords, including Ziyun, became very subtle.
"Kid, having confidence is a good thing, but do you know why there are only nine Dragon Lords in Dragon Valley?" Ye Fan looked at his son and said faintly, asking a question that seemed completely irrelevant.
Why are there only nine Dragon Lords in Dragon Valley? If this question were asked at ordinary times, they might not necessarily know, but now that Ye Fan brought this up, there was a lot to it. And they weren't fools; a terrifying answer flashed through their minds.
"Old man, you wouldn't be saying that only those in the Undying Realm can pass the ten rounds of trials and obtain the highest-level inheritance, right?" Taking a deep breath, Ye Tianming's eyelids jumped wildly.
"It's not that only those in the Undying Realm can pass the ten rounds of trials of the Burial Dragon Court." Ye Fan said with a smile. "On the contrary, if you can pass the ten rounds of trials of the Burial Dragon Court, it means you have the potential to advance to the Supreme Realm, and naturally, you can obtain the highest-level inheritance."
"Remember, passing the ten rounds of trials means you have the potential to advance to the Supreme Realm. Even I only passed nine rounds of trials back then and fell at the tenth round."
"Even, besides Ziyun, the other Dragon Lords also fell at the tenth round of trials."
Why was it Ziyun who was attempting to break through to the Supreme Realm, and not Ye Fan and the other Dragon Lords? The reason lay right here.
The essence of the Burial Dragon Court's trials was for Dragon Valley to test and find clansmen who had the potential to advance to the Supreme Realm.
It's just that after the Rebellion of Long Ni, no Sovereign was born in Dragon Valley, and Ziyun, who had the most hope, also failed when attempting to break through to the Supreme Realm, even being left with injuries.
"If you can really pass the ten rounds of trials of the Burial Dragon Court, then not to mention anything else, even if you walk sideways in Dragon Valley, no one would dare to say anything about you, including us Dragon Lords!"
Damn! Why was I so glib just now?
Looking at Ye Fan's kind expression, Ye Tianming felt the malice from his own father.
Although he was a direct descendant of the Dragon Lord, even as confident as he was, he didn't dare to guarantee that he could advance to the Undying Realm and become one of the nine Dragon Lords.
Not to mention Ye Tianming, even Bu Miyun and Dian Xinlan put away the trace of contempt in their hearts.
After all, if the Undying Realm were so easy to break through, Dragon Valley, which possessed the Dragon Transformation Pool as a sharp weapon, wouldn't only have nine Dragon Lords.
Seeing this, Ye Fan nodded secretly. The reason he brought this up was to let Ye Tianming and the others not underestimate the trials of the Burial Dragon Court.
After all, just like the Dragon Transformation Pool, every clansman of Dragon Valley only had one chance to enter the Burial Dragon Court to participate in the trials and receive the inheritance.
"In other words, the assessment of the Burial Dragon Court can be understood as a screening assessment similar to testing the potential of different Magic Card Masters?" Compared to Ye Tianming and the others, the interest in Lu Li's eyes became more and more intense. The assessment of this Burial Dragon Court was indeed interesting. It's just that he didn't know what the final assessment intensity would be.
The Dragon Transformation Pool improves talent, and the Burial Dragon Court tests potential. No wonder the strength of Dragon Valley's clansmen is stronger than Magic Card Masters of the same generation. This is indeed not without reason, Lu Li couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Always paying attention to Lu Li's expression, Ziyun noticed that the interest in his eyes increased rather than decreased, and a trace of strangeness flashed in her heart.
However, considering that the other party was an original Magic Card crafter like herself, using herself as a blueprint, she felt that it was indeed possible for Lu Li to pass the ten rounds of trials of the Burial Dragon Court.
It's just that thinking that the other party was not a descendant of Dragon Valley, but a student of her best friend, Ziyun couldn't help but puff out her small cheeks.
She didn't know why, but she just felt a bit unhappy in her heart.
"Alright, since you all understand the trials of the Burial Dragon Court, you can set off when you are ready." After saying this, Ye Fan waved his hand to open the gate to enter the Burial Dragon Court. A murderous and distant aura came from within the gate, making Ye Tianming and the others feel a chill in their hearts.
283. Domineering Blue-Eyes White Dragon!
"Lu Li, after entering the Burial Dragon Court in a moment, if you feel anything is wrong, remember to leave immediately." The gate of the Burial Dragon Court opened. Beside Lu Li, Ziyun suppressed the complicated thoughts in her heart and whispered a reminder. "You are the first outsider in so many years to accept the trials of the Burial Dragon Court in Dragon Valley. What will happen, I have no way to predict."
"There shouldn't be any problem, after all, I'm not Long Ni, am I?" Shrugging, Lu Li made a small joke.
He didn't know if it was his illusion, but Lu Li found that Ziyun's small face seemed to be puffed up now, round and round, making him want to rub it well.
Of course, this was just a thought; after all, the environment on the scene wasn't suitable. And Lu Li's small joke was met with Ziyun's coquettish roll of the eyes.
Not to mention anything else, the sickly beauty's roll of the eyes was indeed more flavorful compared to others, but unfortunately, it was fleeting.
Following behind Ye Tianming and the other three, Lu Li also entered the Burial Dragon Court.
A dragon-shaped carved pillar divided into ten layers rose after the four entered the Burial Dragon Court. Flowing light flashed four times in succession, and four points of light lit up one by one on the bottom layer, meaning that all four had passed the recognition.
Seeing this scene, Ziyun finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that even if he wasn't a clansman of Dragon Valley, Lu Li could still participate in the trials of the Burial Dragon Court.
"Next, let's see how many rounds of trials these little guys can pass." Looking at the dragon-shaped carved pillar that had risen, Ye Fan and the others exchanged glances and watched silently.
Although they were Dragon Lords, they had no way to see the trial process inside the Burial Dragon Court.
However, they could guess the clearance situation of the four participating in the trial by observing the situation of the four bright spots on the dragon-shaped carved pillar.
Every time a round of trials was passed, the bright spot representing several people on the dragon-shaped carved pillar would rise by one level, which could also be considered a disguised means of obtaining the trial situation.
……
"This is the interior of the Burial Dragon Court. It looks quite different from what I imagined." Entering the Burial Dragon Court, Ye Tianming found that he had been separated from the other three. However, seeing the scenery inside the Burial Dragon Court, his eyes couldn't help but become solemn.
Not only Ye Tianming, but Bu Miyun and Dian Xinlan, who were also separated, performed about the same. After entering the Burial Dragon Court, they felt a great dragon might descend upon them, and even their breathing became rapid, as if they were being suppressed.
A chill came from the Legendary Spirit Ring, and the massive dragon might was unloaded before it could fall on Lu Li, so he became the only one of the four who was not affected.
Although the trials of the four were conducted separately, everyone was in a courtyard. Buildings with Dragon Valley style could be seen everywhere around the courtyard, and numerous dragon beast statues were placed around the courtyard, with different expressions, but all were lifelike, and dragon Qi even rolled on the surface of these statues from time to time.
The dragon might felt by Ye Tianming and the others originated from the various dragon beast statues in the Burial Dragon Court.
Seemingly sensing the arrival of the examinees, the dragon beast statues scattered in various parts of the Burial Dragon Court seemed to come alive, erupting with bursts of dragon roars. Among them, the fragments on one of the dragon beast statues fell off inch by inch, finally turning into a Long Ling, rushing straight at Ye Tianming, the momentum erupting from its body comparable to a top-tier six-star fierce beast.
"Well come!" Ye Tianming didn't hesitate at all, raised his hand to summon the Black Bombing Dragon to meet it. With just one contact, the Black Bombing Dragon directly blasted this Long Ling.
The blasted Long Ling turned into starlight and dissipated. When it appeared again, it had already recovered completely, but it also turned back into a statue and returned to its original position. But immediately after, two more dragon beast statues turned into Dragon Spirits and attacked Ye Tianming.
Seeing this, Ye Tianming again commanded the Black Bombing Dragon to meet it. At the same time, under his summoning, several more dragon-type Magic Card Spirits appeared in the Burial Dragon Court, and the strength of each dragon-type Magic Card Spirit was no less than the Black Bombing Dragon!
This was the true strength of this direct descendant of the Dragon Lord!
On the other side, Bu Miyun and Dian Xinlan also summoned their respective Magic Card Spirits to meet the incoming Dragon Spirits. Compared to Ye Tianming, the lineups of the two were not inferior at all.
……
"The next battle will be left to you." In the last space, Lu Li looked at the incoming Long Ling and raised his hand to summon Kisara.
"Please rest assured, Master!" Ignoring the incoming Long Ling statue, Kisara bowed to Lu Li and said gently and firmly, "I will not let anyone hurt you!"
As the voice fell, Kisara was wrapped in endless brilliance. The next moment, the incoming Long Ling was directly slapped away by a pure white dragon claw, and in the process of flying backward, it couldn't withstand the power of the dragon claw and was directly blasted and dissipated. ===== CHAPTER 148 =====
