Within the Holy Mountain, a figure was sent flying from the top of the mountain as he landed heavily on the ground.
"It's not that Unfilial Son, but Xiao Yuan?"
When the Xiao Family people looked inside the Holy Mountain, and saw the face of the person who was shaken by the Holy Mountain clearly, everyone was extremely surprised; to think that it wasn't the Xiao Yu that they had imagined, but another Xiao Family descendant.
"Elder Xu Ming, looks like your family really can't pick anyone, to actually fall before that Unfilial Son, and not even that Unfilial Son!"
Among the group of Xiao Family elders, when one of the elders saw the person who had fallen down the mountain, his gaze landed on Elder Xu Ming, and his tone was filled with ridicule.
"Hehe, Elder Xu Ming's family has always had many more geniuses, but it seems that they won't do for a few years. Even Xiao Qian, who had been cultivating in Holy Mountain for so many years, was severely injured by this Unfilial Son not long ago.
"Hehe, to actually elect such a junior to participate in the competition. Looks like Elder Xu Ming's faction really has no one left!"
At this moment, the other elders of the other factions also opened their mouths and taunted Elder Xu Ming in a variety of ways.
The various branches in the Xiao Family were not peaceful either. This time, the competition for the spots was like this, especially now that the Holy Ancestor had appeared.
Therefore, these elders were somewhat gloating when they saw that the descendants of the other bloodlines were shaken and could not endure the pressure from the Holy Mountain.
"Humph!"
Elder Xu Ming's expression was ugly and he snorted coldly. The person who was the first to be knocked down was the person chosen by their family, named Xiao Yuan.
Originally, their clan did have many geniuses, but with Xiao Yu's arrival, it seemed like the few geniuses in their clan had become completely mediocre.
First was Xiao Qian. Although he had already entered the Holy Mountain to cultivate for many years, the last time he met Xiao Yu, he was almost crippled by him. Of course, he already had the qualifications to cultivate within the Holy Mountain, so he didn't need to participate in this competition.
In fact, the person Elder Xu Ming wanted to participate in the competition for was another descendant of their faction, Xiao Feng.
Xiao Feng's innate talent and strength were originally pretty good amongst the Xiao Family's younger generation. Other than the ten people within the Holy Mountain, there were very few people whose Xiao Family could compare to his.
However, it was also during that time that Xiao Feng went to seek trouble with Xiao Yu in order to snatch the Arcane Arts on Xiao Yu's body and lose to him. After that, Xiao Yu defeated Xiao Qian in front of everyone in the Xiao Family.
From then on, Xiao Feng's cultivation speed had clearly slowed down. It could even be said that he had no further improvements.
There was no other way. In this competition, Elder Xu Ming could only choose another junior to participate in the competition. However, when this person was swapped, he would naturally be inferior compared to the other people from the other bloodlines.
"Don't be discouraged, you still have a chance. Let's try out the other mountains!" Although he was greatly angered by the elders of the other martial institutions, Elder Xu Ming could only bear with it.
He stood outside of the Holy Mountain and spoke in a low voice to Xiao Yuan who was falling down the mountain. Although Xiao Yuan was blasted flying by the pressure from the mountain, this did not mean that he did not have the qualifications to continue fighting for it.
"Yes sir!"
The young man named Xiao Yuan stood up, looking miserable. After hearing Elder Xu Ming's words, he began to move again, attempting to ascend another mountain to cultivate.
"It's really strange. Although Xiao Yuan's strength cannot compare to the ten people from the Holy Mountain, logically speaking, he shouldn't be inferior to that Unfilial Son either. That Unfilial Son last time was unable to even pass a mountain."
"Yeah, Xiao Yuan was picked out by Elder Xu Ming after all. Even if he can't go the furthest, he shouldn't be unable to pass a single mountain!"
Seeing Xiao Yuan falling off the mountain, especially before Xiao Yu, people with Xiao Family other than his, couldn't help but start to discuss among themselves.
"That Unfilial Son was actually able to endure for so long, what an accident. The last time he was on the first mountain, he did not last for too long before he fell!"
"Your words are indeed a bit strange. That Unfilial Son must have persisted for more than the last time!"
The topic of discussion for the Xiao Family crowd returned to Xiao Yu, and with the reminder of the few youths, many of them revealed expressions of surprise, because Xiao Yu's performance this time was indeed very different from the last time he had entered the Holy Mountain.
Not long after he boarded the mountain last time, he revealed a pained expression, as if he had suffered a lot. Not long after, he fell off the mountain.
And this time, when everyone looked over from afar, they saw that the faces of the youths on the various mountain peaks were more or less filled with pain, as they were clearly struggling to resist the pressure from the Holy Mountain. On the other hand, on Xiao Yu's side, had a calm expression, as if he was the one with the least pressure from the Holy Mountain, and the one who was the calmest.
After seeing this scene, everyone in the entire Xiao Family felt deeply surprised. It seemed that Xiao Yu was actually the most relaxed person among all the people entering the mountain!
"This Unfilial Son, how did he suddenly withstand the pressure from the Holy Mountain? Last time, didn't he very quickly fall due to the shock of the Holy Mountain, and was unable to get the recognition of the Xiao Family's ancestors? "
Upon seeing this scene, Elder Xu Ming's face turned even uglier.
Compared to Xiao Yuan being the first one to descend and seeing Xiao Yu being so calm, he felt even more uncomfortable in his heart.
"I have previously heard that the pressure on each of the ninety-nine mountains in the Holy Mountain is divided into strong and weak. Furthermore, every time one gains the strength of a mountain, the pressure on the next mountain will double.
"It's possible. From what I see, the reason why the Unfilial Son acted the calmest, he must definitely be very lucky to have chosen the mountain with the least amount of pressure. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to persevere until now!"
Towards Xiao Yu, the people from the Xiao Family discussed again. From the bottom of their hearts, everyone believed that Xiao Yu's performance was abnormal, and it could only be said that he was lucky, and chose the mountain with the least pressure, only then would they be able to rationally explain why he was the easiest.
"The mountain peak that Unfilial Son chose is the one with the least pressure?"
Although he was in the Holy Mountain, although Xiao Yuan's strength had not reached the Heaven Sect Stage, there was still the peak of the Grandmaster Realm. He could hear all the discussions that were going on outside of the Holy Mountain.
To Xiao Yuan, falling off the mountain first was naturally an extremely disgraceful thing; it could even be said to be a disgrace.
But at this time, after hearing the discussions that were outside of the Holy Mountain, he had an idea.
"It's impossible for me to not even compare to this Unfilial Son. It must be because the pressure on his mountain is relatively small. It's just that my luck was bad and I chose to climb up the mountain!"
As Xiao Yuan thought like this, he approached the mountain where Xiao Yu was, step by step.
His idea was very simple. Since Xiao Yu's pressure was the least, then as long as he stole that mountain over, he could easily obtain the power of the first mountain. Then, he could continue going deeper into the Holy Mountain!
