"Thank you, Brother Xu."
Yi Yun cupped his hands at Xu Qingyun. Xu Qingyun shook his head, "It's nothing. The Chu royal residence does things inappropriately. I just can't stand it!"
Xu Qingyun's carefree manner made Yi Yun have a good impression of him.
"Then what is a soul contract?" Yi Yun asked. It was always good to be wary of others. It was always good to know more.
Xu Qingyun said, "In some ancient family clans, there are many types of contracts. Once signed, it will be linked to your soul. There is no way to change it. Some overbearing contracts can make you a slave, making you lose your conscience. The soul contract that Lan Bai wanted you to sign was not that exaggerated. If not, the Tai Ah Divine City would not sit idly by. But … after signing this contract, you will have to serve the Chu royal residence for many years. There are many unfair terms in it. "
"The Chu royal household has taken a liking to your potential, and the benefits they are giving you now may seem good, but when you become truly extraordinary, with this contract, the Chu royal household will be able to lock you up for a few hundred years and make you do many things for them."
"Thank you, Brother Xu, for your guidance. It has broadened my horizons."
Not only Yi Yun, Zhou Kui and Song Zijun also felt that they had benefited a lot. In the future, they had to be careful when signing contracts to avoid suffering losses.
"Little brother Yi, I'm also from the Jin Long Wei, so I can be considered your eldest senior brother. If there's anything in the future, you can look for me. Also … let me remind you that your future is limitless. Do not sell yourself for a little benefit in front of you! Especially those contracts with large family clans. Do not randomly sign them. "
In this batch of rookies, Yi Yun was already at the top. This also meant that by the time Yi Yun trained in the Tai Ah Divine City for more than five years, he would be able to enter the top five of the Heaven and Earth roll.
Typically, cultivators who entered the top five of the Heaven and Earth roll in the Tai Ah Divine City. As long as they did not die in the future, they would become one of the strongest human lords.
At this stage. It was enough to gain the attention of the various large factions in the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom. Wealth, official positions and nobility were all within reach.
Of course, for such a talent, it was impossible to use wealth or official positions to rope him in. To rope him in, one had to use weapons or cultivation techniques. Or heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
Xu Qingyun said, "If you want to join a faction, you can choose a gang. It's more free. I'm from the High Firmament Alliance. If you're interested, I can introduce you to join."
Xu Qingyun casually said. At the side, Zhou Kui and Song Zijun were secretly speechless.
The Ling Xiao Alliance … was the number one guild in the Tai Ah Divine City. Its influence was above that of the Luohuo Association.
There were many people from the Luohuo Association. But not goblins.
It was said that Luo Huo 'er had created a sect on a whim, but due to Luo Huo' er's immense popularity, many young elites rushed in because of Luo Huo 'er's name. Later on, Luo Huo 'er became a hands-off boss. She went to research the Desolate Heaven technique by herself, so the Luohuo Association was managed by a few core members.
And the real elites. However, most of them went to the Soaring Firmament Alliance, such as Li Xiao. For example, the Qiao brothers who were known as the Taia Twin Heroes.
Ling Xiao Alliance had very few members, and even if they wanted to recruit, they would only accept elites!
Zhou Kui felt that. With Yi Yun's present situation, it would be difficult for him to enter the Ling Xiao Alliance. His qualifications were too shallow!
He never expected Xu Qingyun to think so highly of Yi Yun.
"Thank you, Brother Xu, for your appreciation." Yi Yun cupped his hands. Actually, joining a guild was not bad. There was no obligation. Besides, with someone standing behind you, you would not be bullied by other associations.
…
It was the fifth day of the rookie ranking competition. On this day, the battles between the rookies had ended. All the rookies had a general understanding of their strength and their corresponding ranking.
Many of the rookies were ranked after the top 10,000. They knew their own strength, so there was nothing to be dissatisfied about.
They had just come to the Tai Ah Divine City, and the people they competed with were all elites. They had cultivated for a shorter period of time than others, and were younger than others, so what right did they have to be stronger than others?
They could only take it one step at a time, slowly.
However, amongst the rookies, there were freakish geniuses with outstanding talent. These people would not stop here. To them, the fifth day of the rookie ranking competition was when the real battle began!
From this day onwards, they would challenge the senior cultivators who were ranked at the top!
Those who had stayed in the Tai Ah Divine City for two or three years were their targets.
Such a competition was more exciting for the rookies than the rookies' internal battles!
They really wanted to see just how strong these veteran trial challengers were.
The battles to challenge the senior cultivators began. The strength of both sides was on a completely different level from the previous few days.
The top 100 and top 20 rookies went up to challenge the top 8000 and even the top 6000 senior cultivators.
The battles were in full swing!
However, although the experts amongst the rookies fought beautifully, they still lost more than they won!
The older the ginger, the spicier. For the senior cultivators, especially those ranked before 6000, there was almost no one who lost when they were challenged.
One by one, the rookies were defeated.
"Hmph, this bunch of rookies think they are so great. They just came to the Tai Ah Divine City a few days ago, and they want to ride on our heads. They are too naive."
A senior cultivator said disdainfully.
Every year, the rookies recruited by the Tai Ah Divine City would fly high in the rookie ranking competition. They would inflate their ego, wanting to rush higher and compete with the older generation.
But such people would usually fail.
The people who could survive in the Tai Ah Divine City were not pushovers.
"There are a few good rookies this time. For example, that guy named Yi Yun. He has some talent, but he is still too green. If anyone wants to challenge me, I will teach him a good lesson."
A cultivator who had been in the Tai Ah Divine City for two years and three months was wiping his sword with a proud smile on his face.
His ranking on the Earth roll hovered around 4000. For a cultivator who had been in the Tai Ah Divine City for two years, he was considered in the upper echelons. There was no need to mention the rookies.
And at this moment, the referee shouted.
"Divine Wilderness Stage, number 3780, Fang Jihai, come on stage!"
The referee's shout shocked all the challengers who were wiping their swords. What? Number three thousand seven hundred and eighty?
Isn't that the person ranked in the 3700s on the Earth roll?
Fang Jihai …
The cultivator who was wiping his sword had this name flash in his mind. He had an impression of Fang Jihai. He was in the same batch as him and had been in the Tai Ah Divine City for two years. But he was stronger than him!
Even amongst the entire batch of third year cultivators, Fang Jihai was considered one of the stronger ones. This name was quite resounding!
There was actually someone who wanted to challenge Fang Jihai? Was he courting death?
The youth wiping his sword stared. He wanted to see who was so reckless.
And at this moment, he saw a girl in a light yellow dress appear on the Divine Wilderness Stage like a breeze.
"Challenger: 10,001, Chu Xiaoran!"
Chu Xiaoran! Wasn't she one of the two strongest rookies?
Hearing Chu Xiaoran's name, the youth was shocked. So it was Chu Xiaoran who wanted to challenge Fang Jihai. But so what? Did she think that these veteran cultivators had been eating rice for nothing after coming to the Tai Ah Divine City for two to three years?
Did she think that these old people could be trampled on as they pleased?
Amongst the rookies, Chu Xiaoran was clearly very popular. The moment she went on stage, the competition grounds erupted!
Many rookies were cheering for Chu Xiaoran!
There were very few females in the Tai Ah Divine City, so girls were relatively popular. Especially for someone like Chu Xiaoran who came from a noble background and was strong, there was no need to mention it.
"Chu Xiaoran will win!"
Wave after wave of shouts were louder than the previous. In the martial Tai Ah Divine Kingdom, such a high level competition always made people excited.
And in the middle of the stage, a youth dressed in blue stood proudly. He was unmoved by the cheers.
"You are Chu Xiaoran …"
Chu Xiaoran's opponent, Fang Jihai, looked like he was about 15 or 16 years old. He held a spear in his hand and stood up straight. He looked very imposing.
"Amongst the rookies, you are indeed not bad. In five years, you have a chance of entering the top three of the Heaven and Earth roll, or even reaching the top! But now, it's too early. I will do my best to defeat you! "
As Fang Jihai said that, he thrust his spear horizontally. Phew!
A heatwave erupted like a tidal wave, and this long spear actually ignited with a scorching flame! It gave people a feeling that it was difficult to approach.
Control of flames?
Everyone was alarmed when they saw this. Even Yi Yun's eyes focused.
In this world, there were many cultivation techniques. It was not strange for a cultivation technique to produce flames.
For example, the 'Tai Ah Sacred Technique' condensed Yuan Qi known as "Radiant Sun Qi". It was also a type of elemental Qi, but this elemental Qi was not fire, but pure Yang!
In terms of energy quality, pure Yang was higher than fire!
"This Fang Jihai is quite powerful. To be able to condense Yuan Qi into flames at the Purple Blood realm is very impressive. Who do you think will win?" Just the move that Fang Jihai had shown was an eye-opener for many rookies. These veteran cultivators were indeed not weak.
"Of course it's Miss Chu! But … to beat Fang Jihai, she will probably have to spend a lot of effort … "
The rookies in the rookie arena were more inclined to believe that Chu Xiaoran would win. But with Fang Jihai's strength, this battle would probably be difficult.
"Junior sister Chu, the battlefield is ruthless. Be careful!"
Fang Jihai raised his spear and suddenly charged forward. With his spear raised high above his head, he slashed downwards!
"Phew!"
Flames exploded like rolling waves of fire, sweeping through the area.
"Fire Refinement of the Wilderness!"
