Chapter 294
Yan Kingdom.
Imperial Capital.
"Princess, the students from the martial academies of various countries have already started to set off."
Su Qin reported to Murong Yan the situation she had investigated. Every session of the Nine Kingdoms Wu Yuan Ranking Tournament was held in turns in various countries, but because of the special situation this session, the Elder Council finally decided to hold it in the Yan Kingdom.
Murong Yan knew very well in her heart that up to now, the Han Kingdom had not pressured the Yan Kingdom, not only because of her few aunts, but also because the Han Kingdom wanted this martial academy competition to proceed.
The Elephant Kingdom and the Zheng Kingdom, which bordered Daliang, had blockaded their borders, so the students of the Daliang Wu Yuan could not come. Although the other few countries had not yet expressed their stance, they did not border Daliang themselves, and with the obstruction of other countries, the students of the Daliang Wu Yuan could not come either.
In this way, the Yan Kingdom, which bordered Daliang and had not blockaded its borders, was the most suitable place to hold it.
"Have you gotten the stages of the students from the major martial academies?"
"According to the information investigated, the students from the major martial academies coming to participate in the competition are all at the Ranked Tier, and there are also a few Eighth-Rank martial artists."
Su Qin knew what her princess was concerned about and continued: "The news from Daliang says that Lin Chen should not have entered the Ranked Tier yet, and Daliang should not let Lin Chen come to participate."
"Why?"
Murong Yan was puzzled. Although Lin Chen had not entered the Ranked Tier, his performance in the Zhao Kingdom was enough to prove that he was not inferior even when facing a Ninth-Rank martial artist, and he was qualified to represent the Canglan Wu Yuan in the Wu Yuan Ranking Tournament.
"For Daliang, Lin Chen is not an ordinary genius."
Those involved are often confused.
Her princess wanted to see Lin Chen, but she had overlooked one thing.
Lin Chen now possessed super strong appeal to the new generation of martial artists in Daliang.
Daliang was under great pressure now, and Lin Chen was very promising, proving that even without the Martial Way resources of other countries, Daliang's geniuses would not be weaker than those of other countries.
This halo on Lin Chen could not disappear, and in this Wu Yuan Ranking Tournament, the students from the major martial academies were all old students who had practiced in the martial academies for nearly three years. These students were geniuses themselves, and among them were a few geniuses on the Heavenly List.
Compared to these geniuses, Lin Chen had practiced for two years less than them. For these people, the first two years of entering the Ranked Tier were enough to open up a gap of one rank.
"Rather than letting Lin Chen follow the martial academy to the Yan Kingdom to be a spectator, it's better to let Lin Chen stay in the Liang Kingdom. Once Lin Chen comes to the Yan Kingdom, other countries, especially the Han Kingdom, will definitely not miss the opportunity to deal with Lin Chen."
After listening to Su Qin's explanation, Murong Yan also reacted. She could have thought of the relationships involved, but because she was involved and confused, or subconsciously hoped that Lin Chen would come to the Yan Kingdom, she didn't think in this direction.
It was indeed as Aunt Qin said: if Lin Chen didn't have the strength to determine the direction of the ranking tournament, there was no point in participating, and he might even be designed against by the Han Kingdom.
As long as Lin Chen came, the teenagers of Daliang would inevitably have expectations, and Lin Chen would be in a dilemma whether he played or not.
If he didn't play and the four major martial academies of Daliang lost and were at the bottom of the rankings, it would affect his prestige among the teenagers of Daliang.
If he played and the Canglan Wu Yuan was still at the bottom, it would also affect his prestige among the teenagers of Daliang.
Perhaps some teenagers could remain rational and understand that Lin Chen had only entered the martial academy for a year and was not as good as those old students, but Lin Chen had created too many miracles in the past. As long as he came to the Yan Kingdom, the teenagers of Daliang would look forward to him turning the tide once again.
Once he couldn't turn the tide, he would inevitably be criticized.
Lin Chen's inner heart was strong and naturally wouldn't care about this criticism, but Daliang now needed Lin Chen to unite the hearts of the young martial artists.
"Forget it, if he doesn't come, he doesn't come."
Murong Yan clapped her hands lazily. Lin Chen not coming made her have less expectation for this Wu Yuan Ranking Tournament.
Even if there would be Heavenly List martial artists appearing in this ranking tournament.
Su Qin nodded. Lin Chen not coming was the best choice for both Daliang and Lin Chen.
Waiting for the next session of the Wu Yuan Ranking Tournament would be Lin Chen's home field.
After Su Qin retreated, Murong Yan intended to go to the imperial palace, but the next moment her beautiful eyes blinked, she froze in place, and then hurried toward the sleeping palace.
……
……
Two hours later. Murong Yan walked out of the sleeping palace and changed into a set of clothes: "Please ask Aunt Qin to come over."
A quarter of an hour later, Su Qin, who had returned, looked at her princess with a look of doubt in her eyes. Only two hours had passed, but the temperament of her princess had changed somewhat.
She had become more charming.
"Aunt Qin, I still need you to collect the detailed situation of the martial academy students from various countries, the more detailed the better."
The confusion in Su Qin's eyes deepened. Her princess had already decided on Lin Chen, and Lin Chen would not come to participate in the Wu Yuan Ranking Tournament this time, so there was no need for her princess to understand the strength of the students from the major martial academies.
When the ranking tournament started, the strength of these students would naturally be visible.
"Aunt Qin, Lin Chen should represent the Canglan Wu Yuan to participate in this ranking tournament."
Murong Yan didn't hide it from Su Qin. Only Aunt Qin was an insider about the matter between her and Lin Chen. Telling Aunt Qin this news also showed that she didn't treat Aunt Qin as an outsider.
"Lin Chen is coming to participate in the ranking tournament?"
Su Qin was startled, but there was a look of sudden realization on her face. No wonder her princess wanted to collect information on the students of the major martial academies; this was to wait for Lin Chen to come to the Yan Kingdom and inform him of the strength of the students from the major martial academies.
"Good, I will arrange it now."
Although in Su Qin's heart, Lin Chen coming to participate in the ranking tournament was not a wise choice, she would carry out the things her princess arranged without any discount.
"Lin Chen has already entered the Ranked Tier."
Murong Yan waited for Su Qin to turn around and revealed another piece of news.
The secret technique of the Murong royal family was the most sensitive to the soul. She could feel the changes in Lin Chen's soul, which was a sign of entering the Ranked Tier.
And Lin Chen could fight a Ninth-Rank martial artist without entering the Ranked Tier; now that he had entered the Ranked Tier, with her understanding of Lin Chen, it was impossible for him not to come to participate in the Wu Yuan Ranking Tournament.
"Understood."
There was also a bright light in Su Qin's eyes. Lin Chen had actually entered the Ranked Tier at this time; it seemed that Daliang also had ideas for this Wu Yuan Ranking Tournament.
……
……
Canglan Wu Yuan.
Lin Chen looked at the 【Settling in Progress】 on his panel, with a look of anticipation in his eyes.
Ever since he broke through to the Ninth-Rank stage three days ago, the panel had changed, and it hadn't finished settling yet, which made him look forward to the panel having a major update.
"Take advantage of entering the Ranked Tier to continue challenging on Mount Wudao and brush up my ranking and points."
For a martial artist, going from Organ Cultivation to the Ranked Tier is a qualitative leap, and even more so a huge leap in status and position.
An Organ Cultivation martial artist can only be called "Master Martial Artist" by ordinary people, while a Ranked martial artist can be called "My Lord" whether in Daliang or in the other eight countries.
To a certain extent, the difference in status between Organ Cultivation and the Ranked Tier is equivalent to the difference between a teenager and an adult.
As long as one enters the Ranked Tier, no one will treat them as a junior again.
According to Daliang's customs, when a martial artist enters the Ranked Tier, they should hold a banquet and invite teachers and friends, but Lin Chen didn't. Even the news of entering the Ranked Tier was only known to Senior Sister Jiang and Junior Brother Fang among the disciples.
Daliang is currently facing blockades from many countries, and this Wu Yuan Ranking Tournament is very important. If he can hide his strength, he will hide his strength.
"There are ten more days before we set off. I will challenge well on Mount Wudao and accumulate combat experience after entering the Ranked Tier."
……
……
Mount Wudao, when Lin Chen chose to challenge across a hundred ranks again.
The Yan Imperial Dynasty, the Sect Master of the Wan Shui Sect, had an extremely ugly expression.
