Still at Hundred Treasures Garden, by the beautiful lakeshore, a pile of clothes lay stacked, with a long and a short sword placed beside them. The short sword was embedded with a blue gemstone, exuding a vast aura; while the longsword was entirely crimson, appearing exceptionally eerie.
From the small lake, a sudden splash was heard, and not long after, a teenager with mid-length wet hair leaped onto the shore. The youth had sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, his skin as fair as jade, made even paler and more translucent by the freezing lake water. His nose was handsome and his lips thin, his features remarkably striking. He stood about 1.94 meters tall, possessing a slender body that nonetheless retained a sense of grandeur and agility.
He was Su Chen, at twelve years old. In just five short months, he made another astonishing breakthrough, leaping from a One-star Beast Warrior to a Three-star Beast Warrior!
Though it seemed just a two-star difference, it’s a cultivation speed many could only dream of. The majority of the credit went to Su Chen’s comprehension of the Proud Celestial Profound Scripture, along with his natural keen perception for wind attribute skills. Of course, part of the credit was something even Su Chen wasn’t aware of. That was the Ring of Blood Demon.
He dressed himself, strapped both swords to his back, and walked away from the shore with light steps.
The day after tomorrow would be the selection tournament for the Carefree Sect’s eight-year battle against several other sects. This selection tournament would decide five participants for the eight-year battle, with the top three as main candidates, and the other two as substitutes.
Although Su Chen’s strength was evident, in the real competition, it still required sticking to the fair rules of survival of the fittest, conducting the most brutal selection!
Halfway on his way, he couldn’t help but quicken his pace, for by now the teams led by each senior brother might have already started signing up new disciples, each following one of the five senior brothers or sisters for training.
He hurriedly dashed towards the plaza. Observing closely, there was a faint blue glow from beneath his feet, which made his strides steady and swift.
Finally reaching the plaza, he saw hundreds of Carefree Sect disciples lined up in two long queues, intending to register with Senior Brother Chang Zhichun and Fourth Sister Bai Yun. Su Chen quickly ran over, helplessly joining at the end of the line.
This selection was for those under eighteen from the Carefree Sect. The eight-year battle was originally arranged as a competition for those under twenty. Four years from now, they would become the core strength of the Carefree Sect. And the outstanding young disciples would be chosen by the Celestial Peak Sect to advance their cultivation technique and learn higher-level skills. Those of average and below-average ability could choose to stay at the Carefree Sect for continued training (mostly), but could also decide on their own path. However, since the cultivation techniques of the Carefree Sect were at most only first or second tier, and once the Beast Cultivator level reached Beast Master or above, ordinary techniques couldn’t adapt to advanced skills, which naturally couldn’t drive the cultivator’s growth.
After waiting in line for a long time, Su Chen finally reached Chang Zhichun. Chang Zhichun grinned mischievously at him, while Bai Yun beside him also wore a slightly mysterious smile.
"Senior Brother, what’s wrong?"
"Do you feel that queuing is a waste of time?"
Chang Zhichun looked at Su Chen and drew out a piece of white paper from the signing table.
"No, everyone does this, how could it be a waste of time?"
Su Chen shook his head.
Chang Zhichun and Bai Yun exchanged a smile, then said, "That’s good, now let’s start filling out the registration information."
He handed the white paper to Su Chen, along with a quill pen.
Su Chen leaned over the table and quickly filled out the personal information, including name, gender, age, and sect-related information, which would be submitted to the evaluation team of the eight-year battle later.
Finally finished registering, Su Chen squeezed out of the queue, heading towards the dining hall. Just then, a few teenagers passed by him, and one of them said with a smile, "Boss, this time with Brother Long stepping in, we can definitely get back the face lost for Third Brother."
The speaker was a slender-eyed boy, and his target was none other than Su Yu, who had always harbored resentment towards Su Chen.
Su Yu snorted, his gaze intentionally sweeping over the nearby Su Chen, "Of course, Brother Long has, within just a few short years, reached the strength of a Four-star Beast Spirit. Unlike some who think they have a bit of talent and don’t take cultivation seriously, disappearing day in and day out."
