Meanwhile, two young women looked confused, and their eyes kept moving around in search of someone. Judging from their faces, they were clearly twins, but their appearances differed.
One woman with brown hair tied in a ponytail, and the other with short brown hair. Their faces looked cute, but their expressions were too serious, and their eyes were sharp like an eagle's.
Short sleeveless red and white dresses wrapped around their slender bodies, and black cloth looped around their slim waists. Even though their figures are not tall and slender, their twin peaks are quite prominent around C-cup.
The woman with short brown hair then asked her twin. "Hey, Ziqi! Have you found Big Sis Ye yet?"
"No." Huo Ziqi shook her head at her twin sister. "It seems Big Sis hasn't come here yet, Rui."
Huo Rui puffed out her cheeks upon hearing that. "Big Sis is really too much! We returned home a month ago, but she still hasn't returned! I've even contacted her multiple times but can never reach her."
"I'm also annoyed by Big Sis' behavior, I haven't seen her for a long time, but she's actually avoiding us." Huo Ziqi was also annoyed after hearing her twin sister's words.
Hearing his two daughters, Chen Qing said to them. "Ye'er is always like that, so you two don't need to get angry like this, right?"
"No!" The twins called out to their mother, and Huo Ziqi asked her. "Mom, you already know Big Sis has always been like that; why did you let her leave our clan?"
"Ziqi is right, Mom. You should have restrained Big Sis." Huo Rui complained with pursed lips. "If necessary, you should chain Big Sis's hands and feet."
*Smack*
"Ouch!" The twins screamed in pain.
Chen Qing shook his head at them. "Do you think Ye'er is a prisoner? I'm also annoyed by your big sister's attitude, but she will continue to be depressed if I lock her up at home."
Yan Zilan embraced the twins' shoulders and said to them. "Moreover, we are all cultivators, and a month is not long. You could even enter seclusion for half a year, so you two should be able to be more patient in waiting for Ye'er to come here."
Huo Ziqi scowled after hearing that. "Sister-in-law, I miss Big Sis, so I can't wait to meet her."
"Me too." Huo Rui replied as she nodded.
"Instead of thinking about Ye'er, it would be better to think about your opponents in this competition." Huo Yun suddenly said to them, then pointed at Chen Rong. "Look at Rong'er; she doesn't think about anything other than this competition. Moreover, you two still have to avenge your losses to Yu Mei and Situ Luan."
"Tch." The twins gritted their teeth hearing that, and Huo Rui asked. "Hey, Big Brother! Hasn't Situ Luan not been found yet? I'm not sure that evil woman will let her go, so she's unlikely to participate in the competition this time."
"That's true." Huo Yun then glanced at Situ Han and Nie Shuang, who were sitting among the Middle Clans members. "I really feel sorry to see Aunt Shuang like that, and her condition has been steadily declining ever since Situ Luan and Situ Liang disappeared."
Hearing that, the twins also turned towards Situ Han and Nie Shuang, but they could only sigh in their hearts. Even though Situ Luan is their competitor, they also have a good relationship and feel sad about her disappearance.

Ling Ming and Ling Jie couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, looking at those young people because they were the same as the Zhang Clan. Since Ling Ling, Ling Xiya, and Ling Yu'er decided to cut ties with them, they were forced to choose several younger generations from their branch clan, or else they would not have a single representative in this competition.
"Do you think Yu'er will come here, Dad?" Ling Jie suddenly asked his father. "It's been three months since she left our clan, so I miss her."
Ling Ming sighed after hearing that, he also missed Ling Yu'er, but he felt powerless to do anything about it. "I don't know, but I hope Yu'er will come here, and you can try to persuade her to return to our clan later."
However, Ling Jie smiled bitterly at that. "Even if I persuade Yu'er later, I'm not sure she will be willing to go home, especially since she must be with Yun'er by now."
Hearing the name of his only grandson, Ling Ming's face darkened instantly, especially when he remembered how badly Ling Yun had treated him when they met in Beijing. However, he immediately took a deep breath and sighed in his heart, and he felt regretful for acting like that towards him at that time.
Suddenly, they were startled by a thunderous sound, and several people landed in front of them. They were disciples from the Raging Thunder Sect, and the person leading them was their Sect Master, Lei Tong.
Lei Tong then asked a young man behind him as he glanced at Chen Zong. "Are you sure you can beat your cousin, Liu Zhe? In my opinion, he and Yi Shi will be your main opponents in this competition."
"Yes, Master." Liu Zhe nodded to him. "I'm confident that I can beat Chen Zong, but I'm still not sure I can beat Yi Shi, especially since I haven't fought him before, so I still don't know the depth of his abilities."
Lei Tong nodded in satisfaction after hearing his disciple's words, and he explained to him. "Their strength is not much different, but your cousin depends more on his muscles. As for Yi Shi, he relies on his brain and observations to counter all of your cousin's attacks, and Chen Hong narrowly loses to him. So if you want to win against him, you must also use your brain and observations, and you don't need to be impetuous to defeat him."
"I understand, Master."
After they greeted people from the other Upper Clans, they immediately joined Lei Yuntian and the others, for the Lei Clan and the Raging Thunder Sect were one.

Shortly after them, Qin Shuang also came with a few people, but the most conspicuous of them was the young man wearing cloud-patterned hanfu, and he was Qin Wen.
On the other hand, Qin Hong, who was standing at the very back, seemed to be looking around them for someone, and he muttered in his heart. 'Looks like they haven't come yet, huh?'
"Qin Hong!" Qin Shuang suddenly called out to her little brother. "I have warned you many times to get Lian Bing out of your mind, for she already has a future husband, and Ling Yun is far stronger than you can imagine."
Hearing that, Qin Hong gritted his teeth and immediately went to the place reserved for their sect without saying anything to his sister.
Qin Wen asked his aunt. "Aunt Shuang, is that Ling Yun really that powerful? I remember he is Yi Shu and Yi Shi's cousin, right?"
"Yes, Ling Yun is indeed their cousin." Qin Shuang then turned to him. "Wen'er, he is much stronger than all of the younger generations that will be participating in the competition this time, but his character is a bit unique. So I advise you not to look for trouble by glancing at his women, and it would be best if you could establish good relations with him"
"Aunt Shuang, you know I'm unlike my uncle, right? So how could I even glance at other people's women?" Qin Wen asked with a wry smile, and he then turned his head towards Chen Rong. "Moreover, I already have a girl I like, and I've tried to get close to her, but she always rejects me because she wants to focus on this competition first."
"Hmm?" Qin Shuang then followed her nephew's gaze. "I see. Chen Rong is indeed an interesting girl, and she is very diligent in her cultivation and practice."
"Haha." Qin Wen laughed at hearing that. "Hey, Aunt Shuang! Can you accompany me to go to the Chen Clan after this competition is over? Since I don't have parents, I want you to help me propose to Chen Rong."
Qin Shuang smiled and nodded to him. "All right, I will accompany you to propose to Chen Rong later. But for now, you must focus on this competition, and you only need to exert your all to achieve the best possible results."
"Yes, thank you, Aunt Shuang." Qin Wen and the other disciples then followed Qin Shuang to their seats.

Sometimes later, some strangely dressed men and women arrived at the place, led by an old woman. However, a woman with long pink hair followed behind them, and she was Long Ma, the Celestial Dragon Horse.
After she learned that Ling Yun would participate in the competition, Long Ma decided to come over to watch his progress.
Suddenly, a sexy woman appeared beside Long Ma. "Haha, I didn't expect you to come to watch our Master."
"I should be the one who was surprised to see you come to this place, Cai Hudie." Long Ma replied as she shook her head and looked at the younger generation who had already arrived. "Apparently, this competition will be useless for our Master."
"I agree." Cai Hudie nodded to her. "Honestly, I've been secretly watching our Master train for the past month, and his skills are already far above these guys, so I'm sure he can beat them all easily."
