"According to the ancient records, the Su family once had a rule. If a child reaches the Spirit Controlling State before the age of twenty-five, then when her talent is completely awakened, the Su family will advance further!"
"However, no child of the Su family has ever reached the Spirit Controlling State before the age of twenty-five, not even the Illuminating God State."
"Moreover, Yang Li, you should know very well that it's very difficult for ordinary people on this continent to have a child with talent for cultivation."
"As you said, although a wealthy merchant family can raise a talented daughter, her talent shouldn't be too high."
"However, the talent that Wan Qing has shown is not something that an ordinary family can raise."
After Xue Qinghan finished, he didn't say anything else. With Yang Li's intelligence, he should be able to understand what he was trying to say. It was highly likely that Su Wanqing was a descendant of the Su family who had wandered outside and happened to be adopted by her current family.
After a long silence, Yang Li said, "In the beginning, Wan Qing's talent wasn't outstanding."
"It's just that when I entered the Secret Realm with her, a senior gave me a stone that could improve talent, and I gave it to Wan Qing. After she completely melted the stone, her talent evolved to what it is now. However, you should have seen it."
"Wan Qing's current talent can only be said to be very ordinary among the geniuses."
"I understand what you want to say. You think that Wan Qing is a member of the Su family. Although I don't really believe it, we should talk about this later and see how Wan Qing is doing."
"If what you said is true, that she is a member of the Su family, then if she wants to go back, I will support her and try my best to help her."
Xue Qinghan opened his mouth and said, "Yang Li, you should know the difference between the big families in the Central Region and the Southern Fire Region."
"If Wan Qing is really a member of the Su family in the Central Region, then the possibility of you being together in the future will be very small. Moreover, Wan Qing should be the person mentioned by the Su family's ancestral behest, so they will value Wan Qing very much and have very high standards for choosing a spouse for Wan Qing."
"I'm afraid that the Su family will not take you seriously now."
Hearing this, Yang Li chuckled and said, "If I, Yang Li, can't match Su Wanqing, then who in this world can?"
When Xue Qinghan heard this, she immediately laughed and said, "As expected of the Yang Li I know, you really have spirit!"
Yang Li calmly smiled. The two of them chatted for a while before returning to their respective residences.
…
Early the next morning, Bu Yuntian came to the inn to look for Yang Li and the others.
After seeing the crowd, he laughed and said, "Not bad. All of the cultivators from the four sects have passed the first test. However, the people from the two sects aren't as outstanding. Haha, apart from their external help, not many young cultivators have passed the first test!"
Everyone smiled in agreement. Of course, they couldn't help but praise themselves.
After chatting with them for a while, Bu Yuntian straightened his face and said, "This time, I came to find you because I have something to give you. I hope that you can improve further in the competition."
With that, Bu Yuntian produced seven or eight bottles of pills from his Space Ring and passed them to them solemnly. Yang Li and the others accepted them sternly as well.
Bu Yuntian said in a low voice: "This is a Mirror Breaking Pill that can be used by Soul Control cultivators, just like the Minor Mirror Breaking Pill, it can directly break through a layer of cultivation."
"Compared to the geniuses from the Birdy Forest Region, you are at a disadvantage in terms of age. However, your talent and strength are not inferior to them."
"In order for you to go to the Birdy Forest Region to participate in the competition, we had already sent people to the other regions to collect the pills when the competition was announced last year. A few days before the competition, we only managed to buy enough pills and sent them back overnight."
"So today, I specially came to deliver them to you. I hope that you can all enter the Secret Territory! Don't waste the pills that we bought with half of the Alliance's Spiritual Stones! "
Bu Yuntian specifically pointed out the number of Spiritual Stones used. Although they didn't know what half of the Alliance's Spiritual Stones meant, it was definitely an astronomical figure. They couldn't help but feel touched.
Yang Li took a deep breath and said, "Sect Leader, don't worry. This time, the first place will definitely belong to one of the four sects!"
The others nodded fiercely. No matter what, they couldn't let down the Alliance's trust in them.
"Remember, survival is the most important. If you really can't beat them, you'd rather admit defeat than fight them head-on. You are the future of the Alliance. Nothing can happen to you!"
Bu Yuntian's voice was extremely strict. Everyone from the Four Sect Alliance thought so. Although their cultivation was relatively low, they had talent!
When they grew up, these geniuses who were participating in the competition now would just be their stepping stones!
"Yes!" Everyone replied in unison.
"Alright, you guys go back and absorb the pills first. Tomorrow is the Soul Control stage competition again. We will be there to watch the competition!"
After that, Bu Yuntian disappeared on the spot and left the inn.
Yang Li looked at Bu Yuntian's back as he left, then turned around and walked back to his room. He thought to himself, "I will definitely not let you down."
The others also walked back to their rooms with their hearts full of worries.
Xue Qinghan's mood was the most complicated. He used to be a Sect Leader, so he knew what these seven pills meant. Even the extremely wealthy Snowstorm Sect couldn't afford it. What Bu Yuntian said was definitely not a lie!
"Bu Yuntian is really a good Sect Leader. What a pity." Xue Qinghan sighed slightly and then walked back to his room.
"When the Snowstorm Sect revives in the future, we will definitely advance and retreat together with the Tenlan Sect!"
Jiang Yuan, on the other hand, was having a headache. His cultivation was only at Soul Control stage Level 3. Although he was about to break through to Level 4, he still needed a few days' time.
If he directly consumed it now, it would probably cause a great impact on him. After thinking for a long time, he decided not to use it anymore. Instead, he calmed down and began to cultivate.
Time passed in a flash. The next morning, Zhou Maodian's voice echoed in the whole Mirrormoon City.
Everyone got up and went to the arena. Su Wanqing also followed them. But this time, she didn't go as a participant.
Because she didn't participate in the first day of the competition, she was disqualified. Although he was sad for a long time, Yang Li was very happy. After all, Xue Qinghan's words had affected him to a certain extent. If Su Wanqing suddenly fainted during the competition and was injured, he would regret it.
Just like a few days ago, everyone went up to the arena to draw numbers.
Not long after, the results were out.
Zhou Maodian then announced the results.
"Group 1, Huo Qing versus Nangong Qi!"
"…"
"…"
"Group 8, Yang Li versus Han Xu!"
"…"
When he heard that Huo Qing versus Nangong Qi, Yang Li frowned. Although he didn't know Huo Qing's strength, he knew his character very well.
Moreover, he was an elite disciple of the Huo family and had entered the Black Tortoise Secret Realm. His cultivation was at Spirit Controlling State Level 8. Although he didn't make much progress in a year, his strength was undeniable.
Thinking of this, Yang Li said to Nangong Qi, "Brother Nangong, if you can't beat Huo Qing, admit defeat immediately. Otherwise, I'm afraid something bad will happen!"
Nangong Qi raised her beautiful eyebrows and smiled. "Yang Li, you're too cautious. You should know that I'm at Spirit Controlling State Level 9 and can fight someone three levels above me."
"I heard that Huo Qing is only at Spirit Controlling State Level 8. Even if he can fight someone four levels above him, he might not be able to beat me. Don't worry."
Yang Li thought about it carefully and said, "Alright then, Brother Nangong, be careful. This Huo Qing is definitely not an ordinary person. Don't be careless."
"Don't worry. Even a lion needs to go all out to catch a rabbit. I won't let my guard down." Nangong Qi nodded confidently.
"Then I wish Brother Nangong a victory!" Yang Li relaxed and smiled.
Nangong Qi didn't say anything else. He waved his hand and walked toward the stage.
On the other side, Huo Qing also jumped onto the stage. He looked at Nangong Qi with an evil smile and said, "You're Nangong Qi from the shitty Nangong family, right?"
Nangong Qi's expression immediately turned ugly as she said, "You will pay for what you said!"
As soon as Nangong Qi finished speaking, Zhou Maodian set up a wave of spiritual energy and said in a low voice, "Let the battle begin!"
Nangong Qi attacked angrily and attacked Huo Qing.
Huo Qing immediately circulated the spiritual energy in his body to counter Nangong Qi. When his cultivation erupted, everyone was shocked.
Huo Qing had also reached the Soul Controlling Stage Level 9!
"Oh no!" Yang Li cursed in his heart. He looked at the two people on the stage nervously and thought to himself, "I hope Brother Nangong listened to what I said. Otherwise, I'm afraid something bad is going to happen."
As time passed, Nangong Qi was gradually suppressed by Huo Qing. The disadvantage was obvious. Even though he used his powerful cultivation technique, he couldn't suppress his opponent.
However, Huo Qing continued to provoke Nangong Qi with his vicious words, causing him to lose his rationality and refuse to admit defeat. Yang Li and the others saw this and frowned. The coldness in their eyes became more and more obvious.
"You should die!" Huo Qing mocked. From the beginning to the end, he didn't use much of his strength. He had been suppressing Nangong Qi. Nangong Qi didn't even manage to force him to use his trump card.
"Turbid World Fire!"
Huo Qing's spiritual energy was released from his body and rushed into the sky. A bright flame grew from small to large and gradually changed. In the end, it became as dazzling as the sun. It emitted a frightening aura and rushed towards Nangong Qi.
The huge pressure caused Nangong Qi to wake up from his anger. When he saw the bright flame, he was shocked and immediately used his strongest defensive technique. At the same time, he remembered what Yang Li said and quickly shouted, "I admit defeat!"
According to common sense, his opponent should have stopped his technique at this time. However, Huo Qing acted as if he didn't hear it and continued to suppress Nangong Qi with his technique.
At this time, Zhou Maodian, who was in the air, made his move. He casually threw out a wave of spiritual energy and directly broke Huo Qing's technique. He said in a dignified voice, "If there is a next time, you will be disqualified!"
Huo Qing's eyes were cold. He stared at Zhou Maodian without saying a word. He had to lower his head. Although the Huo family was powerful in the Birdy Forest Domain, there weren't many strong cultivators in the Southern Fire Domain.
If they were in the Birdy Forest Domain, he would have already threatened Zhou Maodian. However, he didn't dare to do so in the Southern Fire Domain. Even if Zhou Maodian killed him secretly, it wouldn't cause much of a stir. Moreover, the Huo family wouldn't be able to avenge him.
Nangong Qi looked at Zhou Maodian with gratitude in her eyes. Although Zhou Maodian had blocked Huo Qing's last attack, Huo Qing had inflicted significant injuries on Nangong Qi. Nangong Qi's body couldn't take it anymore.
