The fifteenth of every month, was the busiest time for the Cloudy Peaks. The Cloudy Peaks were situated at the border of the various countries, and did not belong to any country, but was independent from the rest of the world. The Cloudy Peaks had twelve peaks, and there was only one path from the foot of the mountain to the peak.
The most famous thing about the Cloudy Peaks was not the Cloudy Peaks itself, but the Qing Yun Clan that housed it!
The Qing Yun Clan, famed for their medical expertise, opened their doors on the fifteenth of every month, and invited all who were adept in the art of medicine to come up the mountain for an examination. Those who passed the examination would be offered a chance to be admitted into the Qing Yun Clan.
The Qing Yun Clan was a vast clan, with centuries of history. Generations of Sovereigns and Elders possessed exceptional medical skills, and the Qing Yun Clan had amassed a vast collection of books on medicine and medicine. The Qing Yun Clan was a holy land that all medical enthusiasts dreamed of entering. Once they were admitted into the Qing Yun Clan, their status would rise, and if they were lucky enough to be admitted into the Inner House, it would be a meteoric rise.
Many people fought tooth and nail to gain a place in the Qing Yun Clan, and on the day of the Cloudy Peaks' opening, the streets were filled to the brim.
An inconspicuous horse carriage stopped at the foot of the Cloudy Peaks, and a delicate looking youth dressed in plain clothes stepped out from the carriage. He whispered a few words to the coachman, and the youth made his way towards the Cloudy Peaks.
The main road leading to the Cloudy Peaks was crowded with people who had come to pay their respects. They were not too old, at most eighteen, and the youngest was at least fourteen years of age.
The Qing Yun Clan had a strict rule when it came to accepting disciples. They only accepted youths between the ages of fourteen to eighteen, and those who were over eighteen or under fourteen, no matter how talented they were, would be kicked out.
The rule might seem insignificant, but Jun Wu Xie did not think so.
Between the ages of fourteen to eighteen, was the crucial four years after the ring spirit awakened, and it was the period when youths' consciousness was at its most muddled. The Qing Yun Clan wanted to accept disciples at that age, to better brainwash them, to instill the ideals of the Qing Yun Clan.
In the bustling stream of people, many energetic youths were chatting with their relatives who had sent them here with flushed faces.
Only the youths who had come to be apprenticed were allowed to enter the Cloudy Peaks, and the family members could only wait at the foot of the mountain. If they dared to go any further, they would be immediately chased out by the Qing Yun Clan disciples guarding the foot of the mountain.
There were also quite a number of youngsters standing at the foot of the mountain, crazily reading medical books, wishing they could stuff the contents of the book into their brains.
Jun Wu Xie looked on indifferently at the hilarious scene before her. She really did not know, how could a sect with such mediocre medical skills be able to attract so many people to squeeze their way into it.
His calmness, however, made the other nervous youths feel that it was highly unusual. Quite a number of them turned to glance at the unsociable little youth. Seeing that Jun Xie was dressed in plain clothes, with only half an accessory on him, and looking at his young age, they began to laugh mockingly at him.
"Such a brat, and he wants to be accepted into the Qing Yun Clan?"
"Come on, she's probably here to see the world. Can't you see that she's unprepared?"
"That's true. Even if I can't get into the Qing Yun Clan, I would at least be able to witness the glory of the most powerful clan ….. Sigh, if I had to say, the Qing Yun Clan has set the bar for entry a little too low. Just any Tom, Dick, or Harry dares to join in the fun." Several of the youths, who had prided themselves on being from a medical family, put down the medical books in their hands, and pointed their fingers at Jun Wu Xie.
Little did they know, that the person they were laughing at, would soon destroy the most powerful clan in their hearts.
