Chapter 61: Departure - First Update, other readers are currently reading: Palm Buddha Kingdom.

Ordinary people gaze at martial artists and spirit practitioners with eyes full of awe and envy. To become one of these two types of people means to be destined for a life above others. Even the weakest martial artist lives much better than an ordinary person. In this world, strength is everything.

All shops in Qingyun Town opened earlier than usual today. Early in the morning, the five major families of Qingyun Town—Qin, Lu, Yang, Wang, and Luo—sent many people to the square to maintain order.

Today is undoubtedly the most lively and bustling day in Qingyun Town. The square is packed with people, an event that only happens once every three years.

"Shaoyou, hurry up and eat breakfast. Mother specially made your favorite for you." Lu Shaoyou walked out of his room and saw his mother, Lady Luo, busy preparing breakfast.

"Thank you, Mother." Lu Shaoyou said, a sense of happiness spreading through his heart. This was undoubtedly the greatest gain he had after his reincarnation.

"Today is the day of the competition. Be careful. I believe in you. You will become a strong person like your father." Lady Luo said.

Lu Shaoyou didn't say much. It seemed that his mother had always loved his father. As a junior, he couldn't say much about this.

"Master, you must do your best today. If you don't make it into the top five, I'm done for. A good novel: The Pale Legend of the East (TXT download)." Lu Xiaobai said.

"Why would it be my problem if I don't make it into the top five?" Lu Shaoyou asked in confusion.

"I told many servants in the courtyard that Master has no problem. We two hundred people pooled together three hundred gold coins to bet on you making it into the top five. If you don't make it, I'm finished." Lu Xiaobai said.

"You fool." Lu Shaoyou glared at Lu Xiaobai. Two hundred servants pooling together three hundred gold coins to bet on him winning—this was likely all they had. But if they bet three hundred gold coins on Dugu Binglan, they could win three thousand gold coins. Betting on him was not a good deal.

"Master, what is a 'fool'?" Lu Xiaobai asked, puzzled, with wide eyes.

Lu Shaoyou said, "A fool means you are wise and brave."

Lu Xiaobai smiled awkwardly, scratching the back of his head. "I can't compare to Master. Master is the real fool."

"You..." Lu Shaoyou spat out his breakfast, his face turning red with embarrassment.

"Shaoyou, are you ready? We should go." Two graceful figures walked in, and Lu Shaoyou recognized them by their scents—Lu Mei and Lu Wushuang.

Both women had clearly dressed up today. Lu Mei was incredibly alluring, her figure outlining fiery curves. Lu Wushuang exuded elegance, with a stunning beauty and noble aura, making her seem distant and unapproachable, to be admired from afar but not to be trifled with.

"Yes, I'm almost ready." Lu Shaoyou said, burping, having finished his meal.

"Brother Shaoyou, you must do your best." Lu Mei said softly, leaning close to Lu Shaoyou. The strong scent nearly made his nose allergic.

"Shaoyou, go. Mother is waiting for your good news." Lady Luo said to Lu Shaoyou.

After a few more words with his mother, Lu Shaoyou left the courtyard. The others in the Lu family were already waiting at the gate. A good novel: The Unbelievable Creature (TXT download).

When Lu Shaoyou, Lu Wushuang, Lu Mei, and Lu Xiaobai arrived at the Lu family gate, they saw dozens of people waiting. Among them were Zhao Hui, Lu Shaohu, Uncle Lu Dong, Uncle Lu Xi, Aunt Lu Nan, Zhou Lixing, Zhou Haiming, and several Lu family elders. The rest were clan members.

"Hmph." Seeing Lu Shaoyou, Lu Shaohu snorted coldly. Zhou Haiming, looking at Lu Mei by Lu Shaoyou's side, had a dark expression, suggesting he had some admiration for her.

"Shaoyou, relax. Don't be too nervous." Lu Dong said to Lu Shaoyou, feeling secretly pleased that both Lu Shaoyou and Lu Shaohu were participating. Both had a good chance of making it into the top five.

Lu Shaoyou nodded slightly. He wasn't nervous. Having lived two lives, he had the mental fortitude. Even if he didn't make it into the top five, he could always find another way.

"Take this." Lu Dong took out two jade plaques with white ribbons and handed them to Lu Shaoyou. They bore his name and age.

"Let's go." Lu Xi said, and the Lu family group slowly made their way out. As they walked down the street, many people looked at them with awe and curiosity.

On both sides of the street, many graceful young women gazed at Lu Shaoyou and Lu Shaohu, whispering to each other and occasionally looking up with admiration and shyness.

Seeing these young women, Lu Mei immediately stood tall, pressing close to Lu Shaoyou, almost sticking to his side. This made many of the young women on the street look disappointed, as they couldn't compare to Lu Mei's beauty.

On the street, many young men also looked at Lu Shaoyou and Lu Shaohu with envy.

"There are more people this time than in the past. Other readers are currently reading: Sweeping the World (full text reading)." Lu Dong said along the way.

"Of course, there are many geniuses in Qingyun Town this time, and many people from nearby towns have come as well." Lu Xi said.

"I wonder if there will be any dark horses this time. If there are, it will be interesting." A Lu family elder said.

"There are already so many geniuses. It's unlikely there will be any dark horses, but it's not impossible." Lu Dong said.

Lu Shaoyou's lips curled into a slight smile. According to what he knew, Dugu Binglan was a dark horse. He believed she would surprise many people.

A moment later, Lu Shaoyou and the Lu family group arrived at the entrance to the square. Seeing the crowded entrance, Lu Shaoyou couldn't help but shake his head. Just like in his previous life, there were always more people looking for excitement.

"Let's go in from the back." Lu Dong said. As one of the five major families in Qingyun Town and a participating family, a back entrance had been reserved for them.

"Greetings, Master." At the back gate, Lu family members were already waiting to welcome them.

The group passed through the back gate to the edge of the square. The back gate was much quieter, but seeing the sea of people outside, Lu Shaoyou, who had been calm, couldn't remain so. The number of people was overwhelming, more than any concert he had seen in his previous life, with tens of thousands of people.

"Lu Dong, why are you so late?" At that moment, a figure appeared in front of the Lu family group. The man was middle-aged, robust, wearing a long robe, with a remarkable presence, especially his pure white eyebrows. Behind him were three men and one woman, all middle-aged, with extraordinary auras.
