Chapter 22: COMMENCEMENT OF THE GATHERING

The gathering of the genius of the whole Jiao country was about to commence. In front of the Royal manor, was the large arena where all the practitioners of the young generations gathered.

The gathering was filled with loud chatter, discussion, and talks. Soon the trumpet sounded, and the arena felt quite as the clan lords and elders of various clan slowly started appearing.

......................................................

The clan lords made their appearance. Formal greetings were exchanged. Tension could be felt in their conversations.

The courtier announced the arrival of sect representatives. The five sects were quite famous in these regions.

They were The Thundergod hall, Pill pavilion, Green cloud pavilion, Firmament hall, and the Star emperor academy.

They were greeted by the clan lords and then sat into their position. The last to arrive, with a considerable grandeur, was the king, Jiao Sheng.

.....

............................................................

All the audience, the clan lords, and the representatives got up, saluted the king.

“Please be seated, dear guests. It is a grand occasion for my Jiao clan, and all of you were kind enough to grace it with your presence.”

The courtesy was understandable because of the position the five sects held.

Each one of them was an existence above the Jiao clan.

............................................................

The Thunder God hall was a sect that specializes in combat strength, thunder attribute cultivation, and body refining. The figures graduating from there were known to have enormous body strength and high offensive capabilities.

.............................................................

Pill pavilion, as the name suggested, was a sect proficient in Dao of Alchemy.

........................................................

The Green cloud pavilion was an all-female institute and specialized in teaching all kinds of arts.

It was a ladies-only institute that had high standards for accepting disciples.

.....................................................

The Firmament palace was a sect that was highly efficient not only in martial arts but also in the Dao of formations.

It was a heaven for the pursuers of the Dao of formations.

........................................................

The ‘Star Emperor’ academy was ranked number one among all the academies. Each member had heaven-defying talent and capability. The star emperor academy was the oldest of all the sects present.

The exact lineage of it was unknown to the people.

.......................................................

When all the spectators were seated, Jiao Sheng looked towards the enthusiasts on the ground and spoke.

“I see the youth of this age in full bloom. It’s our pleasure to host a gathering for your people. Every single one of you is here for the title of the best of their generation. You are requested to perform your best in the upcoming event. May the best one win.”

.........................................................

The elder in charge of presiding over the gathering announced:

” The upcoming test is divided into three segments. The first one will be the testing ground in the middle of the arena. The slab there tests your martial cultivation and soul realm.”

“The second one tests will, and the third will be the duel round. The participants are requested to register their names and prove their talents.”

.........................................................

Although there was a difference between the abilities of clan persons and commoners, the actual difference would be visible only when the real heaven chose to step forward.

Among the heaven chosen, the Tu and Shi clan stepped forward first. Both Tu Lao and Shi Teng had a talent of 5 stars and the cultivation of the 4th step Qi child realm.

Next stepped Bai siblings. Bai Shengyi had a talent of 5 stars and the cultivation of 3rd step Qi child realm.

Bai Zhong had a cultivation of the 4th step Qi child realm and the talent of 6 stars.

Long Zhengyi stepped out first, and she showed her talent of 5 stars and 3rd stage Qi child realm, but her soul power was the strongest until now.

.............................................................

The Pill pavilion expert grazed at Long Zhengyi; this was a right seedling. Long Dangtian stepped out next, and he was the same as Bai Zhong.

Both of them had astonished the whole crowd. Next, before Long Mengchen could step out, the prince took the initiative. Since all his competitors had stepped out, he naturally needed to show his mightiness.

When he put his palm ion the slab, a shining seven stars occurred, and the cultivation of the 5th step Qi child realm showed. His soul was also at mid Soul child realm.

The crowd gasped in astonishment.

.......................................................

The crown prince lived up to his name. Jiao Shen came down the floor and looked at Long Mengchen with an apology.

” I am sorry to steal the light of Junior sister. Hope you won’t hold against me”. Long Mengchen didn’t even look at him and proceeded towards the pillar. She put her hand on the pillar, and a shocking site came into being. Although the cultivation was at the 3rd stage of the Qi child realm, the martial talent was of 10 stars, Advance soul child state.

All the sect representatives stood up in shock.

......................................................

It was a once in a millennium, talent. Even Jiao Sheng was shocked. He didn’t expect there to be such a presence present in the Long Clan.

Long Mengchen looked at the prince with disdain and said,

“A frog in the well has a limited perspective of how vast the world can be.”

Black lines were visible on the face of Jiao Shen. But he was too thick-skinned.

” Junior sister is a heaven-defying talent and has truly opened my eyes to the vastness of heavens.”

................................................................

Seven figures stepped out at the same time.

” The prince seemed to establish his supremacy too fast.”

Jiao Shen’s face was unsightly as he looked at the figures” What do you mean?”.

“Is the prince going to block me from taking the test. Is this how Jiao royal family treats its participants and citizens.”

The host interrupted and asked the figures to take the test.

A black figure stepped out and put his hands on the slab: 10-star talent and peak Soul child realm. The whole stadium was standing in silence.

.........................................................

Before anyone can even say anything, the rest six figures proceeded to test, and each of their talents was better than Jiao Shen and cultivation between the 4th and 5th Qi child realm.

Most of their souls were in advance soul state like Long Mengchen. The audience was shocked.

The seven masked figures were each demon level talents. Jiao Sheng had a stern expression. Currently, there were eight figures with higher ability than his son.

.............................................................

All the sect’s representatives were currently concentrating on the eight figures. They wanted to accept talented disciples in their institution.

Each of these eight figures was less than 16 years old, Long Mengchen being just 12 years. It was a huge gain for them.

..........................................................

“I hope the prince isn’t unhappy for me stealing your glory,” the black figure replied and didn’t bother with the prince any longer.

Jiao Shen wanted to retaliate but managed to control his anger.

.........................................................

Another hooded figure approached the prince and said,” I hope the prince can pardon the work of my friend. I am Di Tao and am hoping to become a student at the military academy.”

” I hope we can have a good relationship.”

Although Jiao Shen was angry till now, seeing talent like Di Tao was too precious to miss.

” There is no need for a brother to apologize for the actions of others. I hope we will be compatible with each other.”

....................................................

The host stood up and announced the names of the top 100 participants, ” The names announced are requested to come forward.”
