"Understood!" Everyone didn't expect that the Clan Head would say this at the beginning. When they heard these words, they were somewhat disappointed. At the same time, they became more and more nervous.
Because according to what the Clan Head said, this time, there might be no way for them to become the Clan Head's direct disciple.
On the other hand, even if there was someone who could become his direct disciple, it would definitely be very difficult. Therefore, it was inevitable for them to be especially nervous.
As for the other encouragement from the Clan Head, they felt that it was more like a kind of comfort to everyone.
"I know that a lot of people wish to become my direct disciple. However, this is something impossible in any sect. Therefore, all of you should understand this principle!" Cheng Yu didn't explain too much to everyone.
As a Clan Head, he had no reason to explain or discuss anything with everyone.
A simple explanation had already represented his attitude. Whether everyone could understand or not, he had to maintain his dignity.
No one dared to speak because what the Clan Head said was the truth. For the Clan Head to acknowledge their excellence, it was already very difficult.
It was impossible for them to request the Clan Head to choose all of them as direct disciples. That was even more unrealistic.
Because there was indeed no sect master who would choose so many disciples as direct disciples.
Furthermore, the Clan Head had already said it very clearly. How he would choose would depend on the Clan Head himself. This also meant that the Clan Head's subjective opinion was very important.
Perhaps, some people were obviously very outstanding. However, if the Clan Head wasn't satisfied with them, they might not be chosen by the Clan Head.
Just like Bai Zhengqi who was standing behind the Clan Head. A year ago, everyone had seen the Clan Competition with their own eyes.
Bai Zhengqi's performance was also seen by everyone. In the entire Cheng Family, many people knew that Bai Zhengqi's talent was very good.
But even so, the Cheng Family still disregarded everyone's astonishment and firmly excluded Bai Zhengqi.
Therefore, among the 50,000 disciples, such an outstanding talent like Bai Zhengqi didn't have the opportunity to receive pointers and answers from the Clan Head.
Everyone was 100% sure that Bai Zhengqi was more outstanding than more than 80% of the 50,000 or so people here.
However, other than the Clan Head, no one else could make the decision.
Therefore, even though everyone knew that the Patriarch was being unfair to Bai Zhengqi, they could only suppress it in their hearts. No one would stand up for Bai Zhengqi.
No one dared to take the risk because their words might cause them to lose the chance to receive guidance from the Patriarch.
However, at this moment, they were very confused. Today was the day that more than 50,000 of them had finished their training in the back mountain. Why would Bai Zhengqi, who had been eliminated by the Patriarch, appear here?
Everyone might be a little curious as to why Bai Zhengqi would appear here with me Cheng Yu saw that many people were looking at Bai Zhengqi behind him, so he said.
Sure enough, as soon as he said that, everyone became even more curious. More people looked at Bai Zhengqi.
Because today, Bai Zhengqi is the standard for your assessment Cheng Yu explained with a smile.
Patriarch, what do you mean? Everyone was stunned. Obviously, they didn't understand what the Patriarch meant.
"It's very simple. After I passed the cultivation technique to you, I also passed it to Bai Zhengqi. Therefore, the amount of time you two spent cultivating this cultivation technique is basically the same. In fact, the amount of time Bai Zhengqi spent cultivating this cultivation technique is even shorter than you two. However, the difference isn't very big. It's just a few days later than you two," Cheng Yu continued to explain.
Patriarch, I wonder what level Bai Zhengqi is at now? Many people couldn't help but ask.
They didn't understand why the Patriarch would also pass this cultivation technique to Bai Zhengqi. However, this was the Patriarch's own matter. Even if they wanted to interfere, they didn't have the authority to do so.
However, what they were more concerned about was that Bai Zhengqi's cultivation time was almost the same as theirs. So what level was he at now?
If Bai Zhengqi's cultivation results were not as good as theirs, then didn't that prove that their talent was better than Bai Zhengqi's?
I am now at the fifth level Bai Zhengqi stood up and said.
What? Fifth level? How is this possible? Everyone was shocked. This was definitely something that no one had thought of.
Because everyone had some understanding of Bai Zhengqi, they guessed that his cultivation results might not be low. It was possible that he was already at the third level. It was even possible that he had already cultivated to the fourth level like a few others.
However, no one would have thought that in the same amount of time, Bai Zhengqi had already cultivated to the fifth level.
This was especially true for those who had cultivated to the fourth level. They knew very well how hard they had worked in the past nine months.
In order to obtain an advantage in this limited time, they almost didn't stop cultivating.
It was also because of this that they had their current achievements and cultivated to the fourth level. But even so, they still didn't show any signs of breaking through to the fifth level.
Although this cultivation technique was relatively easy to cultivate, no matter how easy it was, the later cultivation would be more difficult than the previous cultivation.
Therefore, the time they needed would also be longer and longer. Therefore, they estimated that they would need at least one or two months to be able to cultivate to the fifth level.
They really couldn't understand how Bai Zhengqi was able to cultivate ahead of them when he obtained the cultivation technique a few days later than them.
This is indeed true. Just last month, he had already taken away the fifth and sixth level cultivation techniques from me Cheng Yu said.
Last month? Patriarch, you mean that Bai Zhengqi had already entered the fifth level last month? Hearing the Patriarch's words, everyone was even more surprised.
If Bai Zhengqi had just entered the fifth level, then although everyone felt very surprised, they could only admire him.
But now, the Patriarch actually said that he had already obtained the fifth and sixth level cultivation techniques last month. This meant that he had already entered the fifth level last month.
They had cultivated to this day and still hadn't broken through to the fifth level, but he had already broken through to the fifth level a month in advance. This was too unbelievable.
This was a bit hard to accept. Could it be that the gap between them and Bai Zhengqi was so big?
It had to be known that during the family competition last year, Bai Zhengqi had lost to some of them because some of them were already at the late stage of the Mahayana Stage.
Although the cultivation competition of this set of Cultivation Method did not have much to do with one's own strength, the higher one's cultivation level, the more experience and insights they would have in cultivation. Therefore, compared to others, they might have an advantage.
However, the most important thing was that their talent wasn't bad. Even if their talent wasn't as good as Bai Zhengqi's, it definitely wouldn't be too far off.
But now that they were compared, why did they feel that they were on a completely different level from Bai Zhengqi?
Moreover, they were people who had received pointers from the Patriarch. Now, they were actually left far behind by Bai Zhengqi. This was indeed a bit hard to accept.
That's right, it was last month. Cheng Yu nodded.
Everyone's expression turned ugly. They knew that the Patriarch must have brought Bai Zhengqi here at this time for a reason.
Now, Bai Zhengqi had obtained this cultivation method later than all of them, but his cultivation results were better than everyone else's. This was simply a slap in the face for all of them.
If they were to request the Patriarch to select them as his direct disciple, they wouldn't even have the face to open their mouth.
After all, Bai Zhengqi didn't have the opportunity to cultivate here with them. He also didn't have the chance to receive pointers from the Patriarch. However, his cultivation results were better than them. This was a slap to their faces.
How could they still have the face to ask the Patriarch to become his direct disciple?
They believed that the Patriarch wouldn't use this excuse to deceive them because the Patriarch had just said that as long as everyone didn't make him satisfied, even if Bai Zhengqi wasn't here to compare with them, the Patriarch could still not select them as his direct disciple.
But now that Bai Zhengqi's performance was so good, they felt that everyone would be wiped out and it would be difficult for them to be selected by the Patriarch.
Patriarch, none of us have broken through to the fifth layer. Does this mean that we don't have the opportunity to become the Patriarch's direct disciple? Someone asked.
Of course, I'm very clear whether you have broken through to the fifth layer or not. But if I don't intend to select a direct disciple, then there's no need for me to bring Bai Zhengqi here.
Just now, I said that Bai Zhengqi is the standard for all of you. However, from the cultivation results of this cultivation method, I don't need to say anything. All of you have definitely not reached the standard.
Perhaps, you might think that my requirement for all of you is too high. Perhaps, only Bai Zhengqi is able to reach the fifth layer in such a short period of time.
Using the person with the best result as the standard, this seems to be too unfair to all of you, "Cheng Yu said to everyone.
Everyone immediately turned silent. Although they didn't say anything, many of them had the same thoughts.
Bai Zhengqi's talent was very famous in the Cheng Family. It was so much so that in all the small cultivation cities, Bai Zhengqi was already a rather famous person.
Now that he had cultivated to the fifth layer in such a short period of time, if the Patriarch were to use him as the standard, it would mean that it was almost impossible for anyone to reach this standard.
Therefore, this was indeed somewhat unfair.
However, if the Patriarch didn't say it, even if they thought so in their hearts, how could they dare to say it publicly?
You don't have to worry. The cultivation results is only one of the conditions for me to select a direct disciple. It's not the only condition. Therefore, you don't have to be discouraged. You still have a chance Cheng Yu smiled.
