Chapter 475: Gathering of Elites

Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy

Another day passed. Today, a plaza at the north of the city was thickly dotted with people. There were at least tens of thousands here.

Normally, at most four or five thousand would go to the small battlefield. This time, there was a gathering for more than 10,000 warriors. The scale was unprecedented. If the four alien races didn't send in too many young warriors, humans would have overwhelming advantage.

Lu Li and Jiang Qiling were surprised at the sight when they arrived at the plaza. Maybe there wouldn't be enough alien races for so many human warriors to kill. Then how should Lu Li and Jiang Qiling get enough points?

"Wow~"

The appearance of Jiang Qiling caught many people' attention. The young masters were particularly excited.

Jiang Qiling was a beautiful girl, no doubt about that. She was one of the prettiest among the young ladies. In the old days, the young masters didn't care about her because of her bad reputation. They heard that she was slutty and indulged in her promiscuous life.

Young Masters of major families could not marry rashly. They wouldn't choose one with negative reputation. Therefore, for a long time, hardly any young masters from major families pursued Jiang Qiling.

But it had all changed now!

Jiang Qiling now was regarded as the future "chosen warrior", which added glory to her. When two girls of similar levels of prettiness were put together, where the first one was a fairy and the second one was an average girl, the first one would appear to be more beautiful and more attractive to male.

Jiang Qiling was the first kind, glaring and dazzling. Every smile and move she had was intoxicating. Some young masters' felt their souls were sucked out by her amorous eyes…

On the other hand, the young ladies weren't so warm toward Jiang Qiling. Some of them hid their expressions well but they had upset emotions. They might be secretly saying that this slut just got lucky and even if she really grew to be the pride of humans, she would still be a slut…

Lu Li remained low-key. He didn't stand shoulder to shoulder with Jiang Qiling. Instead, he stood behind Jiang Hu and observed the young masters and young ladies.

Soon, his eyes glowed. He saw two familiar people—Lu Lin and Lu Hongyu, the only two people from Lu Family that Lu Li accepted as his friend. It was a pleasant surprise that they were here as well.

"Lu Ni and Lu Suan are here!"

Soon, his happiness vanished. There were two young masters in elegant robes next to Lu Lin and Lu Hongyu. Who else could that be other than Lu Ni and Lu Suan?

Lu Ni, Lu Suan, Lu Lin and Lu Hongyu didn't pay much attention to Jiang Qiling. They searched among the crowds and finally found Lu Li.

Lu Li glanced over the four one by one. He smiled at all of them. His expression towards Lu Lin and Lu Hongyu was friendly but that to Lu Ni and Lu Suan was cold.

Soon, a group of young masters and young ladies gathered round Jiang Qiling. Even the young ladies belittling her secretly lurked around Jiang Qiling with a smile.

No matter how much they despised Jiang Qiling or wanted to fight against her when they were alone, young ladies from major families minded their manners. They would never offend each other openly, which would expose them to ridicule.

Lu Li began to observe other young masters. He exclaimed to himself that the young masters and young ladies of the 12 Royal Families were impressive. All of them were at the Noble Lord Realm. Not one of them was at the Eternal Realm.

Warriors older than 30 weren't entitled to get into the small battlefield. Several of those young masters and young ladies were at the peak of the Noble Lord Realm. They were only a bit over 20 years old. Making an achievement at such a young age was utterly impressive.

Five of the crowd were particularly eye-catching. Lu Suan was one of them, being at the peak of the Noble Lord Realm and having the King Kong Bloodline.

Another young master had a slender body, porcelain skins and imposing appearances. He was in a beige robe. He stood out in the crowd. This young master was also at the peak of Noble Lord Realm. Lu Li gathered some information of him from other people's conversation and learned that he was Ye Luo, the future Family Patriarch of the Royal Ye Family from the Tumulus of Universe.

There was another one at the peak of the Noble Lord Realm. He had a somewhat feminine look and a crooked smile, quite untamed. He gave an impression that he was not easy to be around.

He was Yang Xuan from the Hades Society!

This person was hard-edged, even more impressive than Lu Suan or Ye Luo. People's attention would automatically be directed towards him.

There were also two young ladies worth noticing, fair as a flower and beautiful as the moon. One of them was the former most favored young lady of the Great Land, Ji Mengtian from the Samsara Palace. She was definitely the best-looking young lady Lu Li had ever seen, the best.

Not even Jiang Qiling, Lu Hongyu or Bai Qiuxue could compete with her looks. She was like a flawless jade. A few looks at her would make people breathe faster and have their internals flipping.

Muse!

If only one young lady could be called a muse, then it must be Ji Mengtian. No wonder she was regarded as the most beautiful at the Great Land. Even Lu Li was in awe by the might of the creator.

The other young lady was from the Pavilion of Blossoms. She was not as dazzling as Ji Mengtian. Lu Li noted her because of her waist.

Slim waist.

Her waist was slim but her breasts were prominent, which formed a visual impact. Lu Li was worried that her slim waist would twist off when she moved.

"Lu Li!"

Lu Lin and Lu Hongyu excused themselves from Lu Ni and Lu Suan and walked to Lu Li. Lu Lin and Lu Hongyu had mixed feelings. They were filled with words to say to Lu Li but couldn't utter their thoughts when they saw Lu Li…

Lu Li said nothing. After all, Lu Lin and Lu Hongyu had to go back and live with the Lu Family. Being too chummy with Lu Li would impact their reputation. Therefore, Lu Li greeted them only with a smile, a smile more meaningful than words.

Lu Lin and Lu Hongyu coming over to Lu Li caught the attention from Lu Suan and Lu Ni. Lu Suan said nothing but Lu Ni felt upset. He skewed at Lu Li and said, "Hello, who do we have here?"

Lu Suan's exaggerated tones drew some attention. Lu Ni walked over in strides and ridiculed Lu Li, "Isn't this Young Master Lu Li who is exiled by the Lu Family? How come you are at the Demon-slaying City as well? Well? Have you joined the Jiang Family after being abandoned by the Lu Family? Lady Qi, is Lu Li your doorman now?"

Lu Li's matter was known to many families. It would be difficult for the son of Lu Renhuang to escape attention.

Lu Li replied only with a smiled. He wasn't provoked. It was a fact that he was driven out of the Lu Family and that if it weren't for Jiang Qiling, he could not enter the Demon-slaying City.

He didn't want to stay in the spotlight when so many people were here. Otherwise, the matter at the Northern Desert would be exposed sooner or later. Therefore, he said nothing in reply. He maintained a low-key stance with a smile.

Lu Li didn't feel offended, but Jiang Qiling felt otherwise.

Lu Li had told her to keep her distance so that he wouldn't become the focus. However, Jiang Qiling threw that concern out of her mind. Bullying Lu Li was a worse offense than bullying her.

She retorted right away, "Lu Li isn't in my family. My family wants him to join, but the Pavilion of Delicacy is beneath him. As a matter of fact… if he joins, we will reserve a position of patriarch for him. I can even serve him tea and wait on him every day."

"Lu Suan, the Lu Family lacks vision. How can you abandon such a talent? I don't know whether it's because your patriarchs have lost their minds or you and your brother are just so narrow-minded that you cannot tolerate anyone better than you."

Her words swept the plaza with a huge sensation.
