Chapter 100: Yu Xiaogang stakes on the honor of his eldest grandson.
With Yu Xiaogang's sudden rebuke, the entire audience fell into complete silence.
All the guests who arrived turned their attention to Yu Xiaogang.
In the audience, discussions surged like a tide.
Who is he?
To the general public, all they could see was that Yu Xiaogang was seated after the first-place seat and was dressed in a formal ceremonial robe, suggesting that his status was certainly not low.
Those who knew a little about the inside story replied, "He is Yu Xiaogang, the eldest grandson of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family."
"Is that so?"
"It is said that his martial soul has mutated and his innate soul power is low."
"I heard he spent seven years at Thunder Academy, and he still hasn't met the graduation requirements..."
They formed their initial assessment of Yu Xiaogang, saying, "His qualifications are so poor? He's really nothing."
Some people were aware of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's long-standing traditions, and immediately someone echoed:
"Yes, no wonder he wasn't allowed to participate in the ceremony that is traditionally performed by the eldest son."
"However, it's just a ceremony. It seems he was completely unaware of all this."
"Aren't the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan going too far? After all, he's the eldest grandson; shouldn't the proper ceremonies be observed?"
Immediately, someone objected, letting out a cold snort and whispering:
"What do you know? The eldest son's soul power is weak, and he will certainly not amount to anything in the future."
This succession process may seem like a ritual, but it essentially determines who will succeed the next sect leader.
"If the eldest son is incompetent, it's better to give the position of the next sect leader to someone more capable."
Many people also expressed their disapproval: "In front of everyone, the most important ceremony of the sect was about to be completed. As the eldest son, he suddenly interrupted it. He has no manners at all. It's really outrageous."
...
For a time, the public debated endlessly about this unexpected situation, each holding their own opinion.
Yao'er held Yu Xiaogang's hand tightly, her eyes filled with tension and worry: "Xiaogang..."
But at this moment, Yu Xiaogang couldn't listen to anything. He suddenly broke free from his mother's hand and rushed towards the high platform in the square.
He couldn't hold back any longer. As he walked onto the stage, he glared at Yu Xiaozhen, his eyes wide with anger, and shouted:
"I am clearly the eldest grandson, and the ceremony of passing the token and receiving the belt should have been performed by me! Why! Why should you take my place and perform such an important part of the ceremony!"
Yu Xiaogang's voice trembled, filled with resentment and anger that kept buzzing in his mind.
"Xiao Gang! Stop fooling around and go back!" Yu Yuanzhen shouted sternly, his brows furrowed.
However, Yu Xiaogang was not listening to any of this at the time.
Over the years, he has endured so much ridicule. He originally had his own resources and had always been favored and cultivated by his family.
But everything changed after Yu Xiaozhen appeared!
Yu Xiaozhen took away everything that belonged to him—resources, fame—but that was all.
Now, even this last bit of honor he has as the eldest grandson is being taken away by his younger brother!
No one in the sect cared about his feelings, and no one respected him as the eldest grandson!
No one told him that the ceremony for passing on the honor of being his eldest grandson would be replaced by Yu Xiaozhen.
This left him utterly humiliated!
Since things have already escalated to this point, Yu Xiaogang has decided to go all in.
Fight against fate!
In his view, this was an extremely principled thing to do, and people should take the initiative to fight for themselves.
He walked onto the stage, stood in front of Yu Xiaozhen, pointed his finger at his nose, and his voice was hoarse with anger:
"You know perfectly well that I'm the eldest brother, so what gives you the right to enjoy all of this so comfortably?"
Yu Xiaozhen also became impatient. He frowned, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.
After all these years, this guy hasn't improved at all. He's clearly incompetent, yet he can't stand seeing others do better than him.
Yu Xiaozhen was already extremely disappointed in this kind of brother.
He did try to help him.
Back in the sect, Yu Xiaogang often sulked with him over cultivation resources, but Yu Xiaozhen tolerated it.
Back at the academy, he had helped Yu Xiaogang cultivate, but Yu Xiaogang was utterly useless and didn't appreciate it at all.
They were also envious of Yu Xiaozhen's outstanding performance at the academy and jealous that he had joined the Thunder Academy team.
Relying on his status as the eldest brother, he bossed Yu Xiaozhen around and spoke with barbs.
Now, Yu Xiaogang actually dares to stand on the stage of the sect's grand ceremony and question him in front of everyone.
"I believe I am qualified," Yu Xiaozhen said coldly, his eyes filled with disdain.
"Brother, it's you who should know your place."
Yu Xiaogang's face instantly turned bright red. He was humiliated by his younger brother in front of everyone and was completely embarrassed.
Let's just stick to it to the end!
"Yu Xiaozhen! I am the eldest brother! Since you refuse to submit to me, let's settle this using the methods of Soul Masters—a duel! I'll stake my eldest grandson's honor on it!"
Yu Xiaogang shouted loudly:
"If I lose, I'll relinquish my position as the eldest brother! Everything that belongs to the eldest grandson will be yours!"
Having said that, he turned to the clan elder in the audience and addressed him:
"Elder Yu, remember this! If I lose, remove me, Yu Xiaogang, from the position of eldest grandson and give it to this guy!"
Upon hearing this, the elder who was in charge of recording the events looked troubled and turned his gaze to Yu Yuanzhen and Yu Zhentian.
The representatives of various ethnic groups sitting in the main seats also showed surprise. They looked at each other and then looked in the direction of Yu Zhentian.
Unexpectedly, such a huge incident has occurred within the Blue Lightning Sect family today.
With the matter of the eldest grandson not handled properly and internal conflicts intensifying, what exactly will Yu Zhentian do now?
Yu Zhentian's expression was so cold it seemed like it could drip water, and his sinister eyes looked at Yu Xiaogang.
For so many years, he has turned a blind eye to Yu Xiaogang.
Yu Xiaogang is a disappointment, never mind.
Yu Xiaogang has accomplished nothing, yet he still acts like the eldest grandson to gain attention, which is understandable.
I thought he was self-aware and that his behavior was just a way of trying to attract attention because he felt unbalanced.
But today, it's the succession ceremony of the sect leader, such an important ritual.
Yu Xiaogang disregarded the gazes of others and, in front of a group of sect leaders and elders, disregarded the family's reputation and went on stage to interrupt, making a fool of himself!
At this moment, Yu Zhentian did not dare to look at the first seat in the audience.
Family scandals should not be aired in public, but he invited outsiders into his home to watch the spectacle.
Now that things have come to this, we have no choice but to handle this fairly in front of everyone, lest we give others something to talk about.
Since you want fairness and you want to fight for it, then I'll grant your wish.
"Granted!"
Yu Zhentian said in a deep voice, his face devoid of any emotion.
These words caused an instant uproar in the audience, with people whispering amongst themselves.
In their view, this struggle between brothers was far more interesting than the succession ceremony!
Prince Xuexing, seated at the head of the table below the stage, and the leaders of various sects all wore strange expressions, having already considered the events of the day.
Ning Huaijin and Tang Yue exchanged a glance, each with their own thoughts.
Before long, the tables and scrolls on the high platform where the sect's grand ceremony was originally held were moved back, clearing an open space that became a fighting arena for the two eldest sons.
On the arena, Yu Xiaozhen and Yu Xiaogang stood facing each other, their auras completely different.
