Silence.
The hall was dead silent.
Everyone's eyes were wide, their faces filled with disbelief.
First-Grade Martial Soul?
Tianshui City's number one Genius, actually a First-Grade Martial Soul?
"Hahahaha!"
Qin Fang was also stunned for a moment, then pointed at Qin Hao and laughed wildly, "I guessed correctly after all, Qin Hao, you trash, no wonder for three years your Cultivation has remained at Body Tempering Realm First Level. So you have a First-Grade trash Martial Soul!"
Qin Fang's face was flushed with excitement.
In the past, he had always lived in Qin Hao's shadow, almost developing a psychological illness, and his hatred for Qin Hao grew day by day. He had long wished for Qin Hao to become trash.
The others suddenly understood, looking at Qin Hao with a mixture of shock and disgust.
No wonder for the past three years, Qin Hao's Cultivation had been stuck at Body Tempering Realm First Level!
"A First-Grade Martial Soul, huh? So, you're just trash..."
Liu Ruoxue murmured, her gaze complex, but this complex emotion was instantly replaced by indifference.
Martial Souls are determined at birth!
A First-Grade Martial Soul almost guarantees no future, completely incomparable to her Fourth-Grade Water Attribute Martial Soul.
Elder Zhao Yuanji could not hide his disappointment, no longer looking at Qin Hao. He said indifferently, "Alright, this Martial Soul detection is over. Liu Ruoxue, if you have anything else to say, quickly clarify it. Once you reach Myriad Manifestations Hall, focus on Cultivation and do not be distracted."
"Yes, Elder."
Liu Ruoxue bowed and calmly walked in front of Qin Hao.
"For three years, your Cultivation has been stagnant. I suspected whether your Martial Soul was really as high as rumored!"
A hint of disgust flashed in Liu Ruoxue's eyes as she said coldly, "I didn't expect that you really are trash!"
Qin Hao originally had a faint smile on his face, but upon hearing these words, Qin Hao froze.
Liu Ruoxue took out a crystal-clear jade pendant from her embrace. "This Phoenix-Blue Jade Pendant was a gift you gave me on my tenth birthday. Before, I treasured it, but now it seems I don't need it."
With that, she threw the jade pendant in front of Qin Hao.
With a 'crack', the jade pendant shattered.
"This hairpin, you gave it to me the year before last..."
"And this wooden sword, in your words, 'the sword comes from the heart, only with a sword in your heart can you wield true swordsmanship'... Do you, a piece of trash, really understand the sword?"
..."Now, I'm returning everything to you!"
"From today onwards, you and I have no more ties. After all, I am now a Genius with a Fourth-Grade Water Attribute Martial Soul. You can't reach me!"
Looking at the dazed Qin Hao in front of her, a hint of disdain flashed in Liu Ruoxue's eyes.
"Xue'er, what do you mean? We promised to be together forever, we would enter Myriad Manifestations Hall together..." Qin Hao said in disbelief.
"With just you, a First-Grade Martial Soul?"
Liu Ruoxue scoffed, "Qin Hao, I hope you're sensible. The gap between us is like the bright moon and dust. I am the unattainable bright moon, and you are merely the humble dust. You and I are destined not to be people of the same world."
"As trash, you should have the awareness of trash. You, a piece of trash, actually still dream of entering Myriad Manifestations Hall. Ridiculous!"
Trash! Worthless!
Qin Hao only felt a buzzing sound, the two words constantly echoing in his mind.
Qin Hao stared intently at Liu Ruoxue and said, "Just because I have a First-Grade Martial Soul, you want to break off our relationship?"
Qin Hao felt a fire burning in his chest. Just a moment ago, Qin Hao had even recommended Liu Ruoxue to Elder Zhao Yuanji.
But he never expected Liu Ruoxue to betray him so mercilessly.
"Trash has no right to be my friend." Liu Ruoxue's tone was incredibly cold.
Hearing this, Qin Hao smiled, a cold smile appearing on his face. The warmth in his gaze towards Liu Ruoxue was gone, replaced only by coldness.
Qin Hao said deeply, "Liu Ruoxue, I never expected you to be such a snobbish person. You're right, we are indeed not people of the same world. However, I hope you don't regret this later."
"Regret? Why should I regret?"
"Once I reach Myriad Manifestations Hall, with my Aptitude, even more people will pursue me! On the contrary, you, a piece of trash, will probably struggle even to take care of yourself in the future!"
"Pah! Trash!"
Seeing Qin Hao recover so quickly, Liu Ruoxue found it somewhat unacceptable. She spat fiercely, her eyes full of disdain.
"Three months!"
"I will participate in the Myriad Manifestations Genius Battle. I will secure a top three spot and enter Myriad Manifestations Hall!"
Qin Hao said coldly, "Liu Ruoxue, by then, I hope you can still say these words."
Liu Ruoxue scoffed, "Trash is trash, only capable of boasting! Qin Hao, I know you're unwilling, but I advise you not to hold any illusions about me. The gap between you and me will only grow wider and wider, so wide that you'll never be able to catch up in this lifetime!"
With that, Liu Ruoxue left without looking back.
"Screech!"
With a piercing shriek from the Giant Toothed Vulture, Elder Zhao Yuanji took Liu Ruoxue and vanished as a black speck into the sky.
Looking at the departing Giant Toothed Vulture, Qin Hao couldn't help but clench his fists, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes.
At this moment, the square suddenly became lively.
"Brother Liu, what good fortune!"
"Yes, yes, Brother Liu, we hope you'll take care of us in the future..."
Tianshui City had not had anyone enter Myriad Manifestations Hall for a long time.
And once someone entered Myriad Manifestations Hall, it meant that Tianshui City would be reshuffled.
The Liu Family was about to rise!
"Hahahaha, my daughter entering Myriad Manifestations Hall is a great joyous occasion for my Liu Family! I announce that we will hold a grand banquet for seven days and seven nights. All men, women, young and old in the city are welcome to attend. Everyone, please honor us with your presence and move to my Liu Family for the banquet!"
Among the crowd.
Liu Fangzhi, the Liu Family Head, was beaming, full of vigor and high spirits.
"Qin Hao, thank you! If not for your strong recommendation, Xue'er might not have been able to enter Myriad Manifestations Hall!"
Liu Fangzhi laughed loudly, then, surrounded by the crowd, turned and strode away.
The bustling Qin Family square became empty, and the many Elders and disciples of the Qin Family all had extremely grim expressions.
"That trash Qin Hao actually took the initiative to recommend Liu Ruoxue to the envoy!"
"So deeply devoted, yet others don't appreciate it at all. He's really shamed our Qin Family!"
Rage!
Everyone felt a ball of fire stifled in their chests, wishing they could vent it immediately.
At this moment, a figure walked out. It was Qin Gaochi, the Qin Family Grand Elder.
Compared to the anger of the others, Qin Gaochi looked somewhat smug, sneering, "Qin Hao, in the past you squandered a large amount of Family resources, yet you tested as having the most useless First-Grade Martial Soul. Not only that, you also proactively recommended Liu Ruoxue to the envoy. You must give us an explanation!"
"Yes, he must give an explanation!"
"This trash is not qualified to be our Young Lord!"
"I propose to abolish this trash's Young Lord status and let Young Master Qin Fang take over!"
Qin Gaochi sneered. As long as Qin Fang became the Young Lord, the next step would be for him to contend for the position of Qin Family Head, completely suppressing Qin Yuntian's lineage.
Qin Fang was flushed with excitement, looking provocatively at Qin Hao.
Qin Yuntian's expression changed several times, and he shouted, "How dare you! Qin Hao's position as Young Lord was personally appointed by the Grand Elder. Who dares to abolish my son's Young Lord status!"
Qin Gaochi took a step forward and sneered, "Qin Yuntian, in the past you were headstrong, allocating a large amount of resources to Qin Hao, leaving my son with almost no resources for Cultivation."
"Otherwise, my son's Cultivation would surely have already Broken through Body Tempering Realm Fourth Level! In three months, at the Myriad Manifestations Hall Genius Battle, my son would definitely be able to secure a top three spot. Are you going to disregard the Family's future?!"
Qin Yuntian's face was grim. "Qin Gaochi, don't you dare accuse me. When have I ever disregarded the Family's future!"
At this moment, a powerful pressure suddenly enveloped the entire square, and an old voice filled with anger suddenly rang out, "Qin Yuntian, as the Qin Family Head, you do not think for the Family, but for your own selfish interests. How long will you continue to act so stubbornly?!"
Not far away, an old man strolled over, arriving in the middle of the square in a few steps, looking coldly at Qin Yuntian.
"Grand Elder."
Everyone was startled.
The Qin Family had two Meridian Opening Realm experts in total: the Grand Elder and Qin Yuntian.
However, Qin Yuntian had been severely injured in his early years while fighting for more Family resources, and his hidden injuries remained to this day. His Cultivation had also dropped from Meridian Opening Realm Third Level to First Level. In terms of strength, he was no longer a match for the Grand Elder.
"Yuntian, you've disappointed me greatly!"
The Grand Elder's face was gloomy. He said, "For your trash son, you actually want to oppose the entire Family? I announce the abolition of Qin Hao's Young Lord status, to be replaced by Qin Fang!"
"Grand Elder, how is Hao'er trash?!" Qin Yuntian's eyes were slightly red.
"Shut up!" the Grand Elder angrily rebuked, "A First-Grade Martial Soul, what else is it if not trash? I even personally taught him back then, truly a waste of my emotions!"
"You!"
Qin Yuntian's eyes grew even redder.
"Grand Elder, I have something to say." At this moment, Qin Fang said excitedly.
The Grand Elder looked at Qin Fang with a benevolent expression and said, "Qin Fang, I neglected you in the past, I hope you don't hold any grudges. Don't worry, from today onwards, you can freely use all Family resources!"
"Thank you, Grand Elder."
Qin Fang was overjoyed, looking triumphantly at Qin Hao, his tone unfriendly, "Grand Elder, I have a suggestion. Since the Family Head is unwilling for me to be the Qin Family Young Lord, then let Qin Hao and I have a match here and now. If I lose, I will voluntarily give up the Qin Family Young Lord status."
"I just don't know, Qin Hao, do you, this trash, dare to fight me!"
As he spoke, a hint of triumph appeared in Qin Fang's eyes.
Now that he finally had a chance to get revenge on Qin Hao, how could Qin Fang miss it?
He wanted to stomp Qin Hao underfoot in front of everyone.
"Yes, fight!"
"This trash, for three years, his Cultivation is still stuck at Body Tempering Realm First Level. Young Master Qin Fang, beat him to death!"
...Qin Yuntian's expression slightly changed.
A month ago, Qin Fang had already Broken through Body Tempering Realm Third Level, which was considered quite good among the younger generation of the Qin Family.
However, Qin Hao's Cultivation had been stagnant at Body Tempering Realm First Level for three years.
