I'm only one year old, what the heck is a Overturning System?!

Chen Yi's avatar looked calmly at Liu Lang, ignoring his nearly depleted True Yuan, and asked:

"Do you wish to continue challenging?"

Liu Lang smiled wryly and shook his head, bowing with difficulty, "Please excuse me, Lord Heroic Marquis, I have no strength left to fight."

Chen Yi nodded, "Six points, return and rest."

The Leopard Demon of Third Grade Heavenly Harmony Realm Lower Rank scored one point, and the Snake Demon of Second Grade Divine Travel Realm Middle Rank scored five points, totaling six points.

"Yes, Lord Heroic Marquis."

Liu Lang cupped his fists once more, sighed, and returned to the group of prodigies to sit cross-legged and recover his depleted True Yuan.

Seeing this, the others quickly composed themselves, focusing solely on the event, no longer questioning whether the Chen Yi on the stage was his true body.

After all, by now, everyone was clear about the purpose of this grand event by the Wei Dynasty—those who performed outstandingly would be selected as seeds to participate in the upcoming selection on the Tianyuan Continent.

Once they passed this event and the subsequent selection in one go, they would ultimately receive guidance from a few ancestors on Taizhou Mountain, allowing their cultivation and techniques to improve by leaps and bounds.

Even if they underperformed and were not selected to participate in the gamble between the younger generation of the Human Race and the Demon Court, the resources gained during this period would allow them to grow far beyond that of closed-door cultivation, thus widening the gap with their peers, offering numerous benefits for their future.

Therefore, this grand event was absolutely crucial to the prodigies!

"Next, the disciple of Wuliang Mountain, Lou Wushan."

"Yes, Lord Heroic Marquis."

Lou Wushan walked out of the crowd cautiously; even though he knew the figure before him was not Chen Yi's real body, his attitude was more respectful than before.

It should be known that among the Three Paths of the Taoist, aside from the Grand Void Sect where Chen Yi belonged, the other two had not fared well.

His sect, Wuliang Mountain, was spared from calamity because of the Lonely Mountain Ancestor's timely submission, while the third-ranking Yuhua Immortal Sect was completely exterminated.

Such an outcome made Lou Wushan feel very fortunate—fortunate that he didn't act irrationally but heeded the advice of his father and several sect leaders and elders, not seeking revenge against Chen Yi.

Otherwise, not only would he have been unable to do anything to Chen Yi, but he would have also brought about the destruction of Wuliang Mountain.

Luckily, luckily...

Thinking this, Lou Wushan bowed and said, "My lord, I wish to choose a demon of the Third Grade Heavenly Harmony Realm Upper Rank as my first opponent."

Chen Yi glanced at him and waved his hand, "Begin."

Soon, the door of the Thousand Mechanism Tower swung open, and a wolf demon with wings emerged.

The wolf demon scanned the surroundings, about to howl.

But before it could make a sound, a blinding silver light flashed by its eye, and its mind was instantly obliterated.

Bang.

Soon after, the wolf demon's body fell into two halves and collapsed onto the stage.

Chen Yi slowly retracted his fingers behind his back, as if nothing had happened, and summoned another demon.

"That wolf demon... violated this Marque's taboo, let this Wood Demon be your opponent."

For a moment, Lou Wushan was dumbfounded.

Lin Xueru and the others were also surprised, watching the scene, not understanding how the wolf demon offended Chen Yi.

The spectators around were similarly speechless, staring blankly at Chen Yi.

"Damn, Lord Heroic Marquis truly lives up to his name; we should just keep our mouths shut."

"It was just a few words from people of some aristocratic families, why get so worked up?"

"Just beheaded with one sword, tsk tsk..."

Emperor Wei looked at Chen Yi's avatar, feeling helpless and unwilling to say more.

However, the Left Minister beside him chuckled and said, "Lord Heroic Marquis is young and fiery, anyone who provokes him, whether the Yuhua Immortal Sect or that Second Grade Realm wolf demon, has no good end, huh."

"... Lord Left Minister, I advise you to say less," Duke Xing, Lin Hansong, rolled his eyes.

"..."

Seeing Xie Jing's awkward smile, the Great Master and Nine Thousand Years exchanged glances and continued to transmit messages to Li Qingzhou.

"Daoist Qingzhou, the Holy Emperor and various ministers have discussed and decided not to criticize Lord Heroic Marquis further over the Yuhua Immortal Sect incident."

"Thank you for informing me, Great Master; in that case, I can rest assured."

Li Qingzhou looked at Chen Yi's avatar on the stage, secretly smiling bitterly.

To him, Chen Yi's killing of that wolf demon was a minor issue; the eradication of the Taoist sect ranked third in the Wei Dynasty, the Yuhua Immortal Sect, was a tremendously shocking matter.

Even if the Yuhua Immortal Sect was truly colluding with the Demon Court, it would still bring unimaginable consequences for both Chen Yi and the Grand Void Sect.

Firstly, consider the implications on the Tianyuan Continent—

Sects like the Grand Void Sect and Yuhua Immortal Sect, ranked among the top Taoist sanctuaries, were not solitary; there are many complex affiliations behind them.

For instance, among the lower-ranked Taoist sects, Li Qingzhou knows that Yuhua Immortal Sect had four vassals.

Those smaller vassal sects must be handled appropriately, right?

If they refuse and cause trouble, the Grand Void Sect must intervene either to suppress or appease.

Additionally, Yuhua Immortal Sect's external management ranging from various trade associations, cultivation aristocratic families, to certain ongoing demon-subduing tasks, must now fall under the Grand Void Sect.

These aftermaths aren't something that can be resolved overnight.

According to Li Qingzhou's estimate, it would take the disciples of all peaks of the Grand Void Sect at least half a year to entirely take over all Yuhua Immortal Sect's industries and vassals.

And as the leader of the Sword Edge Mountain where Chen Yi belongs, it is inevitable that he will bear the main responsibility and might even be appointed as a Deputy Sect Master by Xiao Huang.

Then, there is the issue of the Taizhou Mountain Battlefield—which causes even more headaches for Li Qingzhou.
