Nine Stars Killer Novel - Chapter 909
Chapter 909 Heaven’s Proud Daughter
Thunder exploded in the sky, and the second war drum was also beaten. The sound was not as loud as before, as if the power of the war drum was getting stronger and louder from now on.
“The first drum is 10,000 jin, the second drum is 20,000 jin, and so on. If you want to beat the last drum, you need 100,000 jin.”
Tang Liangyun reminded Ye Feng.
A hundred thousand jin is nothing. When one reaches the Divine Martial realm, not to mention a hundred thousand jin, even a million jin is possible. Could it be that there is something mysterious in this war drum?
Looking at Ye Feng’s disapproving expression, Tang Liangyun knew what Ye Feng was thinking in his heart. He definitely believed that everyone could accomplish it.
“There are restrictions on this war drum. A hundred thousand kilograms can only be knocked. To reach a heaven-shaking sound, you need at least ten times the strength. Furthermore, you can’t pause in the middle. You have to complete it all in one go.”
Tang Liangyun continued to explain to prevent Ye Feng from being careless.
Just as he was speaking, the third war drum was beaten. The sound was a little weaker. It seemed that Tang Meng had also used up a lot of strength.
“Bounce!”
There were still three loud bangs as his body swept towards the fourth war drum.
Not surprisingly, the fourth war drum was also beaten. Everyone’s hearts were pulled up from the fifth to the sixth drum.
In other words, Tang Meng had already completed the first round of martial arts. Let’s see if he could beat the seventh drum.
Dong!
A dull sound came, and the seventh war drum was beaten.
His left hand landed again, and another melodious drum sound rang out. Every time it sounded, it could shake the heavens. Some people who were weak or lacked mental strength began to beat their hearts, unable to withstand the tremendous pressure of the drum sound.
“In the ancient times, this kind of war drum was good at the Haotian Drum. When the Gods and Devils fought, beating the Haotian Drum would inspire people and scare the enemy. Unfortunately, after so many years, no one was able to beat the drum that made the enemy excited and frightened.”
Listening to the sound of the drum, although it was loud, it lacked the momentum to move forward bravely. It did not knock out the essence of the Haotian Drum.
Tang Liangyun shook his head. However, Tang Meng was not bad. The seventh war drum sounded three times, and the eighth war drum only sounded once before his body landed. It seemed that he was exhausted.
It was considered a good start. The first one to enter the arena sounded the eighth war drum, giving everyone a good start.
Then, the second person went on stage and sounded the sixth drum, barely passing. As for whether he could join Nei Clan, it was unknown for the time being, because there were still two more tests left.
The third and fourth went up one by one, and the war drums were beaten again and again.
The eighth disciple of the Tang Clan of Shaocheng came on stage, dressed in white and carrying a long sword behind him. As soon as he came out, the surroundings became quiet.
“Tang Peng has appeared!”
Many people cried out in alarm. A genius disciple appeared in Shao City. It was Tang Peng. He was young and had thoroughly comprehended the Thousand Secrets Sword of the Tang Clan. Nei Clan made an exception and let him practice the fourth move before joining Nei Clan.
With a flick of his body, he landed on the first war drum. Holding the drumstick in his hand, he fiercely knocked down, causing a rhythm to rise.
“This is interesting!”
Listening to the rhythmic war drums, Tang Liangyun nodded. He had to admit that Tang Peng’s strength could not be underestimated. At least, he was no longer below Ye Feng.
When Tang Peng appeared, the gazes of the people on the platform all glanced over. It seemed that they had their own eyes on Tang Peng. Only Mad elder narrowed his eyes, drank some wine, and turned a blind eye to the disciples. It was as if none of them could attract him.
The first one! Three!
The second one! Three!
The third one! Three!
The fourth! Three!
Fifth! Three!
Almost without stopping, it carried waves of rhythm, as if it was a complete tune. The only pity was that it didn’t have a sense of rhythm, and the three sounds were all fixed patterns.
However, being able to knock out this state of mind had already caused the elders on the platform to smile from ear to ear. Some of the elders even secretly wanted to recruit Tang Peng into their ranks.
The sixth! Three!
Tang Peng didn’t pause at all as he swiftly flew towards the seventh drum. With three thuds, his body appeared in front of the eighth drum.
A surging aura appeared, and the eighth war drum was beaten three times.
Everyone cast their gazes at Tang Peng, wanting to see if he could beat the ninth war drum.
As expected of Shao Cheng’s number one genius, the ninth war drum did not stop him, until the tenth war drum sounded once and his body slowly landed.
After descending, Tang Peng’s face seemed to be a little lonely. His goal was to beat the ten war drums completely.
After countless years of development, very few Tang Clan branches could actually beat ten war drums.
Since ancient times, ten of them had been knocked on, and they had all accomplished great deeds in the future. In the clan, they were all at the Grand Elder level.
“That’s right, that’s right. The ten war drums have been beaten. I feel a little regretful. They are definitely considered geniuses. We, Li Shuifeng, have accepted them!”
An old man stroked his beard and was very satisfied. Not long after Tang Peng landed, he expressed his attitude. This Tang Peng was none other than Li Shuifeng.
The others didn’t mind. There were a total of 200 people, and now there were only eight. There were too many genius disciples behind them. If there were ten war drums that could be beaten, wouldn’t they be peerless geniuses?
The last two members of the Tang Clan from Shaocheng also went on stage. In total, eight of them had beaten more than six war drums. The other two had only beaten the Martial Saint war drums. They had been eliminated in the first round. They hoped that they would be able to turn the tables on them in the next two rounds.
After all, some disciples were talented and lacked strength in the early stages. This was also the case, which could be highlighted in the second stage.
Next was the second branch. The situation was similar to that of the Tang Clan in Shaocheng. Only seven people had sounded six war drums.
Every time a stunning genius appeared, the elders on the high platform stared fixedly at him. As for the beating of Liu Zun’s war drum, they were directly ignored.
“Tang Lan, nine sounds! Qualified!”
“Tang Yong, five sounds, unqualified!”
…
The names of the twenty clans were read out one by one, and in less than two hours, they were halfway through.
Nine of them had reached dozens of people, and each of them had beaten nine war drums.
Apart from Tang Peng, there were also three people who succeeded in sounding the tenth war drum. However, none of them were able to complete three bangs of the last war drum. At most, it was Tang Jun. The last war drum sounded twice, surpassing Tang Peng.
“Tang Xuan, ten sounds!”
The scene was filled with excitement. Another person caught up with Tang Jun. The last drum was completed two times, just one step away. All ten drums were completed.
“This Tang Xuan is hiding quite deeply. It seems that the Tang Clan of Tang City has come prepared this time!”
The Tang Clan of Fire City was ranked at the bottom, and as they watched the war drums beating, the pressure in their hearts grew greater and greater.
“Tang Xue, ten sounds!”
The next one was Tang Xue, and the last war drum only sounded once. It was slightly inferior to Tang Xuan, only lacking a single beat.
“Congratulations, Patriarch Ling Fei! How many good seedlings have appeared in your Tang City this year? It is estimated that this year will be a bumper harvest.”
Someone complimented Tang Lingfei with a flattering tone.
“Patriarch Pan is flattering me. You guys are not bad either. You also have a few good seedlings. Entering Nei Clan is a matter of certainty.”
This Patriarch Pan was the only Patriarch with an external surname. He also had the Tang bloodline in his body. However, following his mother, his father was a person with an external surname.
The Tang Clan in Tang City ended very quickly. There were seven people who completed more than six of them. Tang Xuan and Tang Xue sounded the tenth war drum respectively.
The results were very good, even higher than Shao Cheng’s.
“Look, Tang Xue has appeared. I heard that she is also a genius that I have seen once in a thousand years. This time, Nei Clan has also set a quota. The assessment is just a formality. With their abilities, they don’t need to participate in the assessment. For the sake of fairness, all the seed disciples have to participate in the assessment this time.”
Seeing a young girl slowly walk out, many people let out another cry of alarm.
Anna had a sturdy figure. She wore a pale yellow floor-sweeping dress with bright white teeth. Her face was full of playfulness. Her skin was elegant and could be broken by blowing. The corners of her mouth were filled with a faint smile. She had a lively and adorable personality. The moment she appeared on the stage, countless youths began to shout out out in contention.
“You have to be careful of this woman. She seems to have been reincarnated as a major power. She has been temporarily blocked by Nei Clan. You can’t divulge any information. The future is limitless. If you can, you’d better get on well with her in advance.”
Tang Liangyun reminded Ye Feng.
“Reincarnation?”
Ye Feng did not wrinkle his face. In the past, he had only heard that even some ancient great gods could reincarnate. So all of this was true.
“Dong dong dong!”
Their voices were quickly drowned out by the sound of the war drums. Ye Feng looked at the top of the war drums.
She saw Tang Xue’s colorful clothes fluttering and her pale yellow skirt with some magic treasures embedded on it. Under the light of the sun, it shone brightly and looked very beautiful.
Tang Xue appeared in front of the tenth War Drum in the blink of an eye.
Her small mouth suddenly pouted, as if she was competing. The drumstick in her hand smashed down fiercely, accompanied by a crisp sound, and the tenth war drum sounded for the first time.
Dong!
The second time!
Everyone’s hearts were tightened. Up until now, no one had finished beating all ten war drums. Although the tenth drum had been beaten twice, everyone knew that the final beating was the key.
At the second knock, Tang Xue’s body began to fall. Many people felt a bit regretful. Tang Xue was a genius that hadn’t appeared in a thousand years. If even she couldn’t complete the tenth knock, no one would be able to complete it.
Suddenly!
A layer of white clouds appeared beneath Tang Xue’s feet. She slowly lifted her body up and came to the front of the war drum again.
Raising his right hand high above his head, there seemed to be a surge of power in the sky.
“Boom!”
An intense sound rang out, and the bluestones on the ground split apart inch by inch. After so many years, another ten war drums had been beaten.
The weaker disciples covered their ears and discovered that some blood was still seeping out. This kind of impact was too powerful.
Sonic waves. This was a sonic wave attack. Without a strong wave of energy, it could harm people’s souls.
Tang Xue seemed to have exhausted all of her strength as she knocked on the last hammer, and her body quickly fell down.
The elders on the platform couldn’t help but feel that if it wasn’t for their dignity, they would have already rushed up and put Tang Xue on their own mountain peak.
Unfortunately, Mad elder only took a glance and didn’t have much interest. It seemed that even a heavenly prodigy like Tang Xue couldn’t attract Mad elder’s attention. He just glanced at it more than the others.
