Chapter 1500 - Chapter 1500 Chapter 1360 Chu Mu Competes

Chapter 1500: Chapter 1360: Chu Mu Competes Chapter 1500: Chapter 1360: Chu Mu Competes “Mr. Tang, I believe I have found a suitable candidate for a recommendation,” Lady Gao slowly approached Tang Ang and spoke.

Tang Ang raised an eyebrow and asked, “A recommendation for Seal Valley?”

Lady Gao nodded.

Tang Ang first gave Lady Gao a bow, but his eyes lit up immediately upon hearing her mention Seal Valley.

Seal Valley was indeed a prime location; it housed an ancient array comprising eight positions that could channel the energy of heaven and earth. Whether it was humans or Soul Pets, if one could cultivate at the core of the array, their strength would increase rapidly!

Even though Tang Zhuo had reached the Immortal level, he found no opportunity to transition from Quasi-Immortal to Low-grade Immortal.

Before reaching the Immortal level, his teacher, Tang Ang, could still offer him some assistance. Afterward, however, he had to rely entirely on his own cultivation efforts.

Seal Valley was a cultivation spot Tang Zhuo had long coveted. Just a single year of training there would allow his Soul Pet to absorb a substantial amount of cosmic power. It would not only stabilize his newly acquired Immortal strength but also provide a perfect transition from Quasi-Immortal to Low-grade Immortal. Consequently, the Low-grade Immortal level would no longer seem unattainable!

The training spots in Seal Valley were incredibly limited, and for a long period, the array had suffered significant damage and could not function as it once did.

Recently, news had spread that someone skilled in arrays had perfected the Seal Valley array. Not only had they restored its original function of condensing cosmic energies, but the absorption rate had also increased compared to the past.

Tang Ang had personally visited Seal Valley and informed Tang Zhuo that it was an excellent opportunity for him to step into Low-grade Immortal level. If he could train there for a year, reaching Low-grade Immortal level would not seem so far-fetched.

Tang Zhuo was a leading figure among the younger generation, but within the Immortal domain, Quasi-Immortal level was still not satisfying his needs. He was well aware that there were indeed stronger young Strong Ones, like Divine Sect’s Lin Mengling. Her strength was something Tang Zhuo couldn’t match!

“Seal Valley belongs to the Divine Sect, and Divine Sect’s unparalleled genius Lin Mengling is sure to occupy a spot. Another spot, according to Lady Yu, is intended for the king of the land of New Moon, Chu Mu,” Lady Gao said deliberately while glancing at Tang Zhuo.

When Tang Ang heard this, he was visibly moved and spoke, “Lady Gao, wasn’t it agreed previously that this spot would be given to my disciple, Tang Zhuo? Why has it suddenly been granted to someone else? This doesn’t seem appropriate.”

Tang Ang couldn’t directly criticize Lady Yu’s changing decision, given her significant influence.

Moreover, people in the array circle of Seal Valley were well aware that it was Lady Yu who had repaired it. Without her, the array wouldn’t operate, and even Lin Mengling’s spot was granted with a favor from Lady Yu; it was therefore clear that the second spot was entirely up to Lady Yu.

Tang Ang had a connection with Lady Gao, and for the sake of his disciple’s future prospects, he used this private connection to try to secure Tang Zhuo as the second candidate for Seal Valley.

“Lady Yu previously mentioned she was merely considering it. Since the Saintess was considering, it seemed very likely to be confirmed. However, I was quite surprised when she suddenly told me last night that the spot would be given to Chu Mu, who just arrived in Struggle Capital,” Lady Gao explained.

Tang Zhuo was becoming restless.

He was unaware that Lady Yu had repaired the Seal Valley array. Thinking of how Lady Yu had specifically kept Chu Mu behind that day, could it have been to discuss this matter with him?

The training spot in Seal Valley was something Tang Zhuo could not concede!

Moreover, there were many ways to increase one’s strength, but to train alongside a woman like Lin Mengling, deemed the unparalleled genius of the Divine Sect for a whole year, was a dream for any aspiring leader.

Among the younger generation, Lin Mengling of the Divine Sect had a status likened to an unattainable goddess. Having this opportunity to get close to her, how could Tang Zhuo not be tempted!

“Lady Gao, Seal Valley itself is a cultivation Holy Land for our generation, and the spots and resources are limited. Lin Mengling holds an absolute spot, and Tang Zhuo has nothing to say about that. But to hand over a spot to someone who has never had any renown in Struggle Capital–it might be hard to convince the many other aspirants who have been striving hard to earn this spot,” Tang Zhuo hastily said.

Tang Zhuo knew his master’s character well; he had reached an age of retirement, and many things no longer mattered as much to him.

In instances like this, if Tang Ang decided to yield the spot from a soft heart, it would become extremely difficult for Tang Zhuo ever to make a breakthrough.

Moreover, after Chu Mu’s provocations, Tang Zhuo had developed a strong disliking for him. Allowing such a person to gain the spot, increase his strength, and get a chance to befriend Lin Mengling, would potentially make Tang Zhuo yield his leadership standing among the younger generation.

He couldn’t allow it! This spot simply could not be conceded!

Tang Ang also found himself in a dilemma; he truly wanted to secure the spot for his disciple, but it was Lady Yu who had the final say. He couldn’t possibly use his position to pressure a Saintess rising swiftly in prominence within Struggle Land.

“Mr. Tang also raises a valid point. Although I’m unaware why Lady Yu favors this young king, Seal Valley remains the dream training land for many major powers’ younger generations. Freely giving such a valuable spot to someone with little renown could lead to dissatisfaction from many,” Tang Ang said while stroking his silver beard.

Tang Zhuo and Tang Ang spoke similar thoughts, but coming from a leader-level figure like Tang Ang, both Lady Gao and Lady Yu needed to consider his feelings.

“This…” Lady Gao showed a look of difficulty on her face.

“I originally thought Lady Yu would grant this quota to the winner of the Outstanding Competition…” Tang Ang added a sentence.

Tang Zhuo was the most likely to win the title in this competition, and Tang Ang’s remark was meant to let Lady Gao know that no one would object to giving the quota to Tang Zhuo, as he was undeniably deserving.

“The King of the New Moon Land, Chu Mu, is a low-profile person, but his strength is evident to both Lady Yu and me; he is not interested in the competition, so he didn’t participate…” Lady Gao said, glancing at Tang Zhuo intentionally.

“Does that mean this person disdains to participate in our most authoritative Outstanding Competition on Struggle Land?” Tang Ang raised his eyebrows, deliberately emphasizing his tone.

Tang Ang knew that Chu Mu was a disciple of the Old Man of Cloud Gate and was to compete against Tang Zhuo. Lady Gao’s statement was clearly saying her disciple was inferior to the Old Man of Cloud Gate’s disciple, which irritated Tang Ang!

“Not necessarily, but you should also know, the strong ones in the Outstanding Competition do not necessarily represent all the young Strong Ones on Struggle Land. There are always some who do not participate in the Outstanding Competition. Some people I know, like Yun Qingshan of Monster Beast Palace, the young city master Xia Yin of Humble City, the disciple Little Immortal from an elder’s sect, and the genius Lin Mengling from Divine Sect… Their strength should not be inferior to Young Master Tang Zhuo,” said Lady Gao.

Tang Ang naturally knew of these individuals. The Outstanding Competition was indeed the most authoritative, but it didn’t mean that there were no young people surpassing this event; the four persons Lady Gao just mentioned were the real Strong Ones known to a few, young and powerful, some even the sect leaders dared not provoke.

“Lady Gao, placing the king of the New Moon Land, Chu Mu, among these individuals seems a bit inappropriate. If he truly has the strength to stand on equal footing with them, I, Tang Zhuo, would have no issue relinquishing the quota. But if his strength is mediocre, giving him such an opportunity would be a waste of the extremely limited resources of Seal Valley,” said Tang Zhuo.

Tang Ang nodded, then said to Lady Gao, “In that case, Tang Zhuo and he are destined to fight. Why not let the victor between the two decide the rightful owner of the quota?”

“Yes!!” Tang Zhuo immediately nodded emphatically!

After several provocations, Tang Zhuo could hardly wait to battle Chu Mu immediately to show this suddenly emerged contender who really has a say here in Struggle Capital!

“This… This seems somewhat unfair to Chu Mu, as the quota was initially allocated to him by Lady Yu,” Lady Gao said, seemingly troubled.

“Then let’s have a fair wager. I’ll put up my chips against the quota he currently holds. The winner takes the chips of the other!” Tang Zhuo hurriedly suggested!

Tang Zhuo wasn’t afraid of this battle; what he feared was the quota senselessly going to Chu Mu!

“We need to consult Chu Mu himself about this, may I inquire if that’s okay?” Lady Gao was inwardly pleased, but her face showed difficulty.

“Then I’ll have to trouble you, Lady Gao,” Tang Ang said with a slight smile.

Ultimately, strength decided everything. Tang Ang liked to resolve issues this way, and his combat-keen disciple, Tang Zhuo, naturally wasn’t afraid of the opponent.

It was hundreds of years ago when Tang Ang defeated the Old Man of Cloud Gate; could the losers under him match his own disciple?

Today, he was a human leader, and who else in the world remembered him?

Thinking this, Tang Ang unconsciously stroked his beard, feeling comforted by the thought of having trained an outstanding disciple before retiring.

…

It didn’t take long for Lady Gao to return again.

“How is it? Does he dare to accept the challenge?” Tang Zhuo asked impatiently.

“He has agreed, but he set some tough conditions,” Lady Gao said.

“What conditions?”

“He wants to participate in the final round of the Outstanding Competition and claims all rights to any profits from his rankings there,” explained Lady Gao.
