This knockout competition will start in ten days, so the participants will have ten days to prepare.
As for Yang Chen, he plans to prepare tomorrow. After all, he is different from others. He has to participate in the Alchemy assessment tomorrow. Even though he got two special grades today. he still wasn’t the focus of the assessment field.
Compared to that, Wang Wu’s first-class talent was valued more.
Of course, this didn’t affect Yang Chen much, and he didn’t take it to heart. At this moment, the Zhou family members had not returned to their residence yet.
But Gu Mingyue was extremely worried and asked Yang Chen about his assessment situation. He naturally mentioned the good parts, so as not to worry Gu Mingyue.
When the Zhou family members returned, Yang Chen heard Zhou Haoran’s laughter from afar, which caused him to pause for a moment.
Zhou Haoran happened to lead Zhou Yunxi to see Yang Chen, and said, “Yang Chen, my friend, how did the assessment go? I believe that with your standards, it must have been eye-opening.”
Yang Chen chuckled, “I’m afraid the situation is just the opposite of what
Master Zhou said.’
“Oh? What’s the matter? Are the big sects blind to not value your martial arts talent?” Zhou Haoran widened his eyes, somewhat dissatisfied. If it were before, it would be fine, but now, after spending some time together, he has really regarded Yang Chen as his own family.
Yang Chen spoke gently: “Let’s not talk about me, but how did Miss Zhou perform
“I was just about to say that.” Zhou Haoran was so excited, “Can you guess? My daughter’s talent evaluation is first-class, first-class talent! Hahaha! The most important thing is that my daughter successfully passed the basic assessment and entered the selection competition. This is really a double happiness!”
Seeing Zhou Haoran’s excited appearance, Yang Chen couldn’t help but smile and said, “Congratulations to Miss Zhou.”
Everyone has the heart to see their children succeed.
It’s normal for Zhou Haoran to be so excited.
Zhou Yunxi gave a slight curtsy and then playfully stuck out her tongue, “Young Master Yang, you must have passed the basic competition, right?” “Yes, I was lucky,” Yang Chen said with a slight smile.
“I don’t believe that you passed by luck.” Zhou Yunxi rolled her eyes. “You’re always full of tricks. Even though you’re not much older, you have more schemes than my father.”
Yang Chen coughed twice, then used his divine soul detection and suddenly found something.
Zhou Haoran also noticed something, with an expression of surprise and joy in his eyes: “It’s Elder Wu from Ziyang Sect and Elder Ming from Linghe Sect!”
As Zhou Haoran’s voice fell, a beautiful woman and an elder arrived together, their expressions clearly revealing their intentions. At least both of them were looking at Zhou Yunxi with extreme enthusiasm, even a fool could see that they were here to win her over.
Yang Chen squinted his eyes, not caring much at first, but when he saw the beautiful woman, his expression turned cold.
Because this beautiful woman was none other than Zhao Xuanwu and his sister’s master whom he had met in the Great Wilderness.
This beautiful woman has the surname Wu and is respected as Elder Wu, and is quite influential within the Ziyang Sect.
As Yang Chen noticed this beautiful woman, she also noticed him.
“It’s you!” Elder Wu squinted her eyes, her gaze flashing with undisguised hostility.
“Elder WII!” Yang Chen cupped his hands.
Elder Wu seemed uninterested in Yang Chen and said bluntly, “There’s no need for that, we’re not that close. Anyway, I didn’t expect you to participate in this Genius Selection Competition as well!”
Zhou Haoran was somewhat at a loss, as it seemed that the two knew each other and their relationship did not seem to be good.
“I wonder how my sister is doing in Ziyang Sect?”
The beautiful woman yawned and waved her hand, uninterested, “Yang Chen, don’t worry about your sister. She’s making great progress under my tutelage and has already reached the third level of the Spirit Martial Realm. She also performed excellently in this assessment. Just the talent assessment alone has reached first-class talent. Yang Chen, you should know very well the difference between first-class talent and your third-tier talent.”
Obviously, she had already learned about Yang Chen’s situation from Ziyang Sect people in the assessment field where Yang Chen was.
This was not surprising. Ziyang Sect was such a big sect that it could grasp the information about every assessment participant, and it was quite simple for them to learn about Yang Chen’s situation so thoroughly.
Then Elder Wu’s tone turned harsh, “Yang Chen, I’m just advising you, ordinary people are ordinary people. Since fate has it so, one should have the awareness to accept destiny. Don’t think about making a big splash all the time, it’s useless. You, as a third-class talent, if you practice hard, may not have a great future in this life, but at least you can stand out among ordinary people. Unfortunately, you have chosen the wrong way. What’s the use of raising your martial arts cultivation to the fourth level of the Spirit Martial Realm in such a quick and profit-oriented way?”
“Excessive growth, extremely foolish!”
Upon hearing this, Yang Chen’s face turned cold.
Elder Wu didn’t care about Yang Chen’s feelings and said solemnly, “You are now no longer on the same level as your sister in terms of status and strength. It’s predetermined that you and your sister exist in two different worlds. So, don’t even think about seeing Caidie in the future and disturbing her, lest you disturb her determination to pursue martial arts. Do you understand?”
Yang Chen, furious and laughing, looked at Elder Wu, who looked down upon him and knew that there was no point in saying anything now.
She regarded herself as understanding his current situation very well and directly labeled him as an ‘ordinary person’.
Ordinary person…
Indeed, it was a very mocking term.
“Elder Wu, what do you mean by this?” Zhou Haoran’s expression was somewhat unhappy, as Yang Chen was his friend after all.
Elder Wu didn’t know about these things and said with a smile, “Master Zhou, I was just chatting about trivial matters just now, and I apologize for that. Let’s talk about the serious stuff now. I think Miss Yunxi has outstanding talent, and I’m here on behalf of Ziyang Sect with sincerity, and I’d like to discuss with you about Yunxi’s future! What do you think? Don’t worry, if things work out, I won’t treat Yunxi and your Zhou family unfairly.”
“Hehe, Elder Wu, look at what you are saying. As it is with you, so it is with our Linghe Sect. Master Zhou, the conditions offered by our Linghe Sect will only be higher than those of the Ziyang Sect.” Elder Ming stroked his beard.
Both hadn’t started yet, but they were already facing each other with enmity. It was obvious that they didn’t want to miss out on an outstanding talent like
Zhou Yunxi..
