Yang Chen saw that Elder Crane was a smart person, so he put his mind at ease. He believed that Elder Crane would not make things difficult for him. Without saying much more, he took back his spear and left at an appropriate time.

Although his status was now extraordinary within the Yuanshan Sect, his experience from his previous life made it clear that everything, including status and position, was fleeting. If he was not careful, it could all be shattered completely.

The transformation of the Purple Forbidden Soaring Dragon Spear into a supreme-level spiritual instrument was indeed far beyond his expectations, something he could not have imagined!

If it were merely an upper-level spiritual instrument, that would be fine.

But a supreme-level spiritual instrument, the consequences were much greater.

Yet, the key point was not about these issues.

If it were just a supreme-level spiritual instrument, his identity could still cover it up, who would have the audacity to lay their eyes on his treasure?

The main issue was the Purple Forbidden Soaring Dragon Spear.

He had never heard of a spearhead that could transform into a supreme-level spiritual instrument just by changing the spearhead; this matter could cause serious trouble. Who knows what other secrets were hidden within the Purple Forbidden Soaring Dragon Spear?

Yang Chen dared not take this lightly.

However, it was fortunate that Elder Crane didn’t seem to observe the astonishing aspect within the spear, which reassured Yang Chen greatly.

After resolving the issue with the Purple Forbidden Soaring Dragon Spear, Yang Chen immediately returned to Feitian Peak.

Upon returning to the peak, he immediately started cultivating.

After all, the Trial Tower was up next, and Yang Chen didn’t want to waste such a precious opportunity. The moment he returned to Feitian Peak, he once again went into closed-door cultivation.

Ten days later, Yang Chen led Elder Yun and Elder Hu, who acted as his attendants and guards, to leave the Yuanshan Sect and head to Beishan Main City.

Although his current status was extraordinary, he didn’t show off too much when leaving. In Yang Chen’s view, bringing a large number of people when leaving the Yuanshan Sect would actually cause more trouble. Having fewer people would be more effective in concealing his intentions.

The journey was very peaceful, and no trouble occurred. Yang Chen, Elder Hu, and Elder Yun arrived smoothly at Beishan Main City.

Beishan Main City was already a familiar place for Yang Chen, and it seemed like the city had been waiting for him for quite a while. Just as Yang Chen arrived, an old man with a goat-like beard and leaning on crutches came to meet him.

Upon seeing the old man, Yang Chen cupped his hands and said, “Yang Chen pays his respects to senior!”

Yang Chen was actually very surprised in his heart because he could sense that the old man’s martial arts cultivation level was even higher than that of Elder Hu and Elder Yun. This indicated that the old man’s strength had already reached the True Martial Realm.

To have a True Martial Realm expert as his guide, leading him to the Trial Tower, Yang Chen’s eyebrows raised, feeling that there was more to Beishan Main City than meets the eye. After all, True Martial Realm experts were not common.

Elder Hu and Elder Yun didn’t dare to be careless either and called the old man their senior, fearing that they would offend him.

The old man chuckled and stroked his beard, leaning on his crutches calmly and said, “I am a steward of Beishan Main City, surname Xu. You and your friends have come from afar, there is no need to be so polite. Especially you, young friend Yang Chen, as the champion of this Genius Selection Competition, you are an especially welcomed guest in our Beishan Main City.”

Yang Chen didn’t take this old man’s flattery to heart.

He guessed that as long as Steward Xu didn’t make things difficult for him at the Trial Tower later, everything would be fine. However, he wasn’t too concerned about this matter.

Beishan Main City wouldn’t really give him a hard time and leave him without options, would they? Otherwise, why would Mu Baisheng let him come here?

Beishan Main City still cared greatly about its reputation.

With this in mind, Yang Chen respectfully said, “Steward Xu, I wonder where Steward Feng is?”

“Hehe, Steward Feng has had other matters to attend to recently. Beishan Main City has specially asked me to assist you, my friend Yang Chen,” Steward Xu said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Yang Chen almost understood the situation.

Steward Feng had been very happy and friendly with him during their previous transactions and had mentioned that he would meet him again when he returned to Beishan Main City.

But now, it seemed that Steward Feng obviously was not able to come anymore…

Most likely, Beishan Main City had discovered Yang Chen and Steward Feng’s dirty transactions. Although they wouldn’t punish a powerful True Martial Realm expert like Steward Feng, they probably would not let him, the Young Sect Master of the Yuanshan Sect, get too close to Steward Feng.

The relationship between Yuanshan Sect and Beishan Main City was not all that friendly.

Upon thinking this, Yang Chen didn’t bother to think any further and said, “In that case, I shall trouble Steward Xu.”

“No trouble, no trouble at all.” Steward Xu wore a fake smile on his face as he led the way slowly and leisurely.

Yang Chen didn’t rush, following closely behind Steward Xu and entering the core area of Beishan Main City.

The buildings around were magnificent and imposing, yet Yang Chen was drawn to the tall tower not far away. It soared into the sky, its exact height difficult to measure. Even from afar, the tower inspired a sense of awe and reverence, as if it represented all majesty.

Upon seeing the tower, Yang Chen suddenly said, “Steward Xu, is the tower ahead the Trial Tower?”

It was not much different from what he had seen in his previous life, but he couldn’t show that he had seen it before.

“Indeed, it is,” Steward Xu laughed.

“This Trial Tower stands tall and majestic. Logically speaking, I should be able to see it even from a distance. Yet, I could only see the tower clearly when I approached it. It seems that the entire central area of the Trial Tower is filled with a forbidden array formation, so that one can only discern it when close by,” Yang Chen said.

Steward Xu raised his eyebrows, thinking to himself that Yang Chen was quite observant. He stroked his beard and remained silent, his expression sly and cunning.

Yang Chen didn’t expect to obtain any useful information from Steward Xu, so he followed him unhurriedly to the front of the Trial Tower.

Once they arrived at the Trial Tower, there were more people.

At first glance, Yang Chen could see many talented-looking young men and women eagerly waiting in front of the Trial Tower. They were all dressed in the robes of Beishan Main City; the younger ones were about 20 years old, while the older ones were in their forties or fifties. Some of their ages were difficult to discern.

However, overall, these geniuses were not very old, because in terms of martial arts cultivation, anyone under a hundred years old could not be considered an adult.

It was not difficult to see that these young men and women were the talents cultivated by Beishan Main City in previous years. Having received the nurturing of Beishan Main City, their current martial arts cultivation levels were difficult to estimate.

Some of them were even astonishingly in the Origin Martial Realm despite their young age.

This made Yang Chen fold his arms behind his back and take a long, cautious look at these geniuses. The talents from previous years of Beishan Main City also turned their attention to Yang Chen and Steward Xu.
