Chapter 55 Party & Drinking
After Yang Podi and the other two bowed, everyone dispersed at the call of their maternal grandfather, Niu Gao.
There were three tables in the hall. The largest table was in the center, where Grandpa Yang Wudi, Second Grandpa Yang Wushuang, Niu Gao, Titan, and Bai He sat. They seemed to have a very good relationship and were all leaders of their respective families.
The table on the left is occupied by the middle-aged generation: their parents, Taino from the Power Clan, their uncle Niu Mang from the Control Clan, and a refined-looking middle-aged man named Bai Tianyu from the Agility Clan. All five are direct descendants of the clan leader.
However, Mom Niu Jinfeng brought her younger sister Yang Tianyue to this table, and Bai Tianyu also brought a little girl with her, who was about the same age as her younger sister. She should be Bai Chenxiang who is in the back.
The table on the right is full of these younger generation members, including Yang Podi, Yang Pingan, Niu Meng, Tailong, and Bai Xiaofei.
When Yang Podi brought Yang Ping'an to the table, Tailong immediately said, "Podi, Ping'an, why are you two so late? Since you're so late, you should drink three cups of wine as punishment."
The other two were also making noise.
"Tailong, Niu Meng, Xiao Fei, what can we do when our homes are far away? There's nothing we can do about it. Let's skip the penalty drink and have a drink together."
Niu Meng firmly objected: "How can this be? It's a rare opportunity for everyone to get together. If you're late, you'll have to drink a penalty shot first."
"Okay, I'll drink as punishment, but I'll drink one first, and then we'll all drink together. How about that?"
After speaking, Yang Podi and Yang Ping'an exchanged a glance, then each drank their wine in one gulp. Ignoring what the others were saying, they sat down.
However, his cousin Niu Meng wanted to continue making trouble, but Yang Podi stopped him.
"Cousin, that's really unfair of you. I already said you'd have to drink three cups of wine as punishment."
"Cousin, it's a rare opportunity for us all to get together, so let's just enjoy ourselves! Let's all have a drink and wish our four single-attribute families continued prosperity!"
After Yang Podi finished speaking, he picked up a wine glass and filled it with wine. Niu Meng, who was standing next to him, wanted to say something, but he was pressed down and could not say anything.
"Cousin, you're so strong, I'll drink it, okay?"
After saying this, everyone raised their glasses and drank the wine in one gulp.
Niu Meng, however, turned directly to Yang Ping'an beside him and said, "Ping'an, aren't you tired of following my cousin around every day? I'm a little scared every time I see him."
"It's a bit tiring, but it's not bad. My older brother taught me a lot."
Originally, there were only four young members from the four single-attribute families. After Yang Ping'an joined, they all got along very well. In particular, after Niu Meng fought Yang Ping'an a few times, he seemed to be somewhat convinced of his abilities. Tai Long and Bai Xiaofei had also fought Yang Ping'an and admired him quite a bit. Moreover, Yang Ping'an was the youngest of the five, so he naturally became the fifth oldest.
Yang Ping'an had long been recognized as a grandson by Yang Wudi and Yang Wushuang, so attending this kind of occasion was no problem for him. Yang Ping'an had a good personality, and everyone liked him.
The five of them then drank and chatted together, sometimes talking about anything and everything, sometimes telling jokes, and everyone burst into laughter. The five of them seemed determined to drink until they were completely drunk.
Bai Xiaofei suddenly became interested: "Ping An, what level is your soul power now? It seems like the last time we met was a year ago at my house."
"Brother Xiaofei, I just broke through to level 26 recently."
Bai Xiaofei, Tailong, and Niu Meng were all surprised: "Ping An, how did you break through to level 26 so quickly? Did your older brother force you to train all year round?"
"No, that's not it. It's actually quite good to be with Big Brother. I can learn a lot, especially since we practice shooting together almost every morning and have a sparring session. Why don't you join the Breaking Clan and train with Big Brother?"
Niu Meng quickly said, "No, please don't! My cousin's training method is too tough. I really can't take it."
Tailong and Bai Xiaofei nodded in agreement.
The five of them had always had a good relationship and had even trained with Yang Podi in the Po Clan, but they all ran away after only two days.
At this moment, Tyrone spoke up: "Ping An, you're already level 26, and I'm only level 21."
Bai Xiaofei also spoke up: "I'm also level 21."
Niu Meng laughed heartily: "You two are both level 21, and I'm already level 22."
Talon seemed a little unconvinced: "What are you laughing at? I'll break through to level 22 in a month too."
Bai Xiaofei remained silent, but he'll probably reach level 22 soon.
Yang Ping was a little puzzled: "Why didn't you ask about our eldest brother's rank?"
Niu Meng was speechless for a moment: "Why ask about his level? I'm easily discouraged compared to him, so I might as well not ask."
"To avoid being upset by our older brother, let's have a drink together first, so we can all calm down."
After saying that, the five men raised their glasses again and drank them down in one gulp.
Niu Meng suddenly suggested, "How about the four of us challenge my cousin together? Can't the four of us Great Soul Masters beat him?"
Yang Ping'an shook his head: "Brother Niu Meng, the four of us really can't beat Big Brother."
Niu Meng seemed somewhat unconvinced: "How is that possible? The four of us are all Great Soul Masters. Working together, our strength is quite formidable. I'll defend, you and Tai Long will launch a strong attack, and Xiao Fei will be responsible for harassment and containment. Within the Great Soul Master realm, who can stand against the four of us?"
"But my brother is already a Soul Master. Can your defense withstand his attacks?"
Upon hearing this, Niu Meng spat out the wine in his mouth, almost spraying it onto Yang Ping'an's face.
Niu Meng suppressed a grunt and said, "What did you say? My cousin is already a Soul Master? Forget it, never mind."
Yang Podi stepped forward, placing his hand on Niu Meng's shoulder: "Cousin, I heard you want to challenge me. I'm ready anytime, but when are you?"
"Cousin, you must have misheard. I just said that the four of us will challenge you to a drinking contest. You can't outdrink the four of us. You can ask the other three if you don't believe me."
The other three nodded hastily, thinking to themselves: "The three of us are just beginners in the Great Soul Master realm. If we want to challenge a Soul Venerable, aren't we just asking for a beating? Especially since our eldest brother's combat power is so exaggerated, he's definitely going to get beaten up."
Yang Podi became interested: "Cousin, I remember you're the best drinker among the five of us, right? Shouldn't you be the one accepting the challenge from the four of us?"
"Take on the challenge, what's there to be afraid of? I've never been afraid when it comes to drinking."
"Let's have a drink first, and then everyone can take turns drinking."
"Cousin, aren't you going too far? Four of you are bullying me."
"Didn't you just say you wanted to challenge all four of us? Let's drink first."
The three people next to him seemed to enjoy the fun and were also drinking with Niu Meng.
By the time the drinking session ended, Niu Meng was already passed out drunk under the table, and Yang Podi and the other three were also swaying unsteadily, clearly having drunk quite a bit.
Finally, Niu Meng was carried back to his room by the servants, while Yang Podi and the other three staggered into their rooms and fell asleep immediately.
