[Lord of All Lords] [World of Gold Waves]

[Episode 2] [Wild Ambition]

It's bustling here in the city.

Lord Nanli's Mansion is right ahead.

Both you and Bingning grew up in the palace since childhood.

You rarely have the chance to come out.

If so,

we should come and explore, Hongyan.

Sure thing.

Your Majesty.

Your Highness.

Divine Master.

Here we are.

This is where I stay?

[Lord Nanli's Mansion]

Your Majesty.

Lord Xuanlong requested an audience at the hour of Si today.

Tell him to meet me at the main hall

an hour later.

Depart.

Greetings, Your Majesty.

During my seclusion these days,

you sought an audience with me several times.

Is there anything urgent?

[Lord Xuanlong] I wouldn't dare to disturb you.

But this is urgent,

and I'm very anxious.

Go on, then.

I'm getting up in years,

and I find myself overstretched lately.

I may no longer fit the role of the Clan Elders' Council's chief.

Your Majesty,

please understand.

Bingning.

This man doesn't seem nice as he passes himself off.

Who is he?

There are two non-imperial lords in Beishui Kingdom.

One is your father, Lord Nanli,

while the other one is him,

Lord Xuanlong, Chong Houhu.

You're so thoughtful, Lord Xuanlong.

I think I was wrong about you.

I'm one of the non-imperial lords in Beishui Kingdom.

Sharing your burden to serve the kingdom

is my duty.

Unlike the descendant of Lord Nanli,

who idles his life away,

contributing nothing.

Therefore,

I reckon Luo Lie should lose his right to inherit Lord Nanli's title.

A new capable successor should be elected

to serve Your Majesty and Beishui Kingdom.

He wants to remove me?

Lord Nanli's achievement was extraordinary,

and he saved my life.

If I were to depose him without reason,

the people of Beishui Kingdom might throw both of us into infamy

for harming the descendants of loyalists.

I beg to differ, Your Majesty.

Martial arts is the foundation of the Beishui Kingdom.

The contribution of Lord Nanli

is widely known to everyone.

Unexpectedly,

the young lord is an ignoramus

who resists martial arts.

I'm afraid he might be

snuggling in some woman's arms like a weak man at the moment.

If the people were to know about this...

Enough said!

Lord Xuanlong, you mentioned you were up in years.

Kindly don't worry about me.

You seem to be in a good mood today.

Why are you in the main hall?

Fortunately, I came here.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have known if someone had stabbed me in the back.

I wonder what he's up to.

How about this?

Luo Lie has reached teenage years.

The Overlord Trial will take place in two weeks.

If he passes three levels in the trial,

he will inherit Lord Nanli's title.

Failing that, he will be demoted to a commoner.

How does that sound?

Very good.

You are wise, Your Majesty.

I will step down from the chief of the Clan Elders' Council, then.

Sure.

Do you have anything else to report?

No.

I shall take my leave.

Your Majesty.

Bingning.

Luo Lie.

Are you confident about passing the Overlord Trial in two weeks?

I will do everything in my power to assist him.

Don't worry, Hongyan.

I will let him know

that he should never belittle a young man.

Congratulations on your incoming ascension,

Father.

I was planning

to use the Clan Elders' Council against Liu Hongyan

if she disagrees.

However,

our queen

seems to be quite reckless.

I'm afraid she might regret today's decision.

[Chong Zhanyuan] Liu Hongyan was just acting tough.

Everyone knows that Luo Lie never practices martial arts,

let alone reach the entry level.

To pass the first three levels in the Overlord Trial,

one must reach at least the sixth level of Body Cultivation.

Is that possible for him?

Obviously, she was trying to avoid

the infamy of mistreating the descendants of loyalists.

Be that as it may,

you mustn't take this lightly.

You should prepare yourself.

Yes, Father.

If Luo Lie fails,

the position of Lord Nanli will be yours.

Please don't forget me by then.

Do you have no interest in Luo Lie at all?

[Lan Cailing]

Surely, you jest.

As for Luo Lie,

I did have a brief talk with him when we were little.

But he grew fond of me, which I didn't commit myself to.

Besides, the entire Beishui Kingdom knows

you're the top practitioner among all youth.

Luo Lie is going to lose big time.

The Overlord Trial was the legacy of the Overlord of the Beishui Kingdom.

He single-handedly

raised Beishui Kingdom's ranking to the top ten

among 800 vassal states.

It's a shame that this young Overlord died from heavy injuries,

and no suitable successors had been selected.

That's why he set up the Overlord Trial.

Candidates who passed only three levels will become his successor?

Yes, three levels.

However, in more than 200 hundred years,

no one broke through the hidden fourth level and became his successor.

Currently,

the most promising candidate is Lord Xuanlong's son,

Chong Zhanyuan.

He's the top young practitioner in the Beishui Kingdom.

Before the result is out,

the winner

is anyone's guess.

You have really changed a lot.

Before this,

you would never say things like this.

Bingning.

In your judgment,

can I challenge the fourth level, given my current strength?

Typically,

only those who reached the sixth level of Body Cultivation are able to do that.

But you are an exception.

Divine Dragon Spell at the fourth level of Body Cultivation

is more than enough.

Bring it on.

I guess I must advance as quickly as possible.

I will use this Dragon Orb I have kept for years

to assist your cultivation.

Sure.

Enlightenment of Dragon

expands in brilliance.

What is this?

Eight Empowering Chant is helpful for your inner energy cultivation.

Luo Lie, I will assist you outside.

What a thrilling start.

The gold bell for metal.

Poisonous mist for wood.

Fiery serpent for fire.

I suppose the sounds of waves should be the water attribute.

What is this?

What is going on?

Did something happen?

Luo Lie.

What happened inside there?

Icy Flow Technique.

Ride!

I, Wu Tailai of Lord Nanli's Mansion, offer my greetings.

[Wu Tailai] Young Master of Scarlet Dragon Chamber.

Well,

[Luo Chixing] where are you from?

Luckily, the Dragon Orb is intact.

When one enters or exits the Dragon Orb, they need the help of a divine master.

If not, they would be damaged.

How did you come out of there?

What if I tell you

my left hand

is capable of countering attacks from divine masters?

Does it sound

absurd?

Seeing

is believing.

Try me, then.

Icicle Technique.

Attack!

Fire Balls Technique.

Attack!

How can this be?

How about this one?

Lotus Whirlwind.

Attack!

Bingning.

Attacks of this magnitude

feel like soft tickles to me.

Bingning.

Are you all right?

I believe it now.

Your left hand

is really capable of countering attacks from divine masters.

How did you manage this?

Forget it if you don't want to tell.

I will keep this

a secret.

Thank you,

Bingning.

[Day of the Overlord Trial]

[Preview of the next episode] I will pass the trial

to stand up for Hongyan.

Also, I want to humble that old geezer.

I've decided to join the Overlord Trial in Beishui Kingdom.

This time,

you should reclaim what belongs to you.

Go ahead.

What is this?

The young lord actually practices in secret.

It can't be.

Has he been pretending to be lousy

all these years?
