Chapter 136: Assaulting the Wei Family
The Wei Family, ranked among the top ten family powers in Duyang City, boasts a family mansion that is grand and imposing.
In recent days, the Wei Family Mansion has been abuzz with excitement because the family’s grand martial competition has been underway.
Tens of thousands of Wei family members have gathered within the mansion grounds, which has made it extraordinarily lively.
Both families from Duyang City and Donglin City hold internal competitions every few years. The purpose of these family competitions is to select the best of the family’s young disciples and focus on their cultivation.
This method effectively selects elite disciples, preparing them to become the future pillars of the family, ensuring the family’s continued prosperity.
As one of the top ten families in Duyang City, the Wei Family’s grand competition naturally attracted many high-level figures from other families as guests.
Important individuals from several Duyang City families were seated in the VIP section of the high platform at the Wei Family Martial Arts Arena.
"Clan Leader Wei, congratulations! Your Wei Family has produced an extraordinary talent in recent years!" said a white-haired elder on the VIP seats, speaking to Wei Family Patriarch Wei Jiuhe.
"Indeed, this young fellow named Wei Leng is truly remarkable. He is only eighteen years old and has already reached Half-step Innate! A cause for celebration!" said a woman in a red dress, adding her voice to the conversation, albeit with a hint of jealousy in her tone.
This woman in the red dress was an elder from the Nian Family in Duyang City.
The Nian Family and the Wei Family were both large clans in Duyang City. The Nian Family was ranked higher than the Wei Family. The Nian Family elders were displeased that the Wei Family had an eighteen-year-old at Half-step Innate, especially since the Nian Family had not produced such an outstanding disciple in recent years.
Wei Family Patriarch Wei Jiuhe, hearing the red-dressed woman’s words, smiled faintly. He could clearly detect the jealousy and envy in the Nian Family Elder’s words. However, far from being angry, he felt even more pleased.
