Chapter 6 - Dwindling Hope Of The Qing Family

Previously Qing Yi had thought that a genius like Qing Chenyi was already extremely rare and talented. Reaching the 6th stage of Qi Condensation at the age of 17, in the entire Bright Sun City. Only Bai Fei was able to pose a slight threat to his position as number one.

But even with that, he was still undoubtedly the number one genius in Bright Sun City.

However, when the first tests finally began, Qing Yi slowly discovered that there were quite a large number of 'geniuses' like Qing Chenyi! There was even quite a number of people far above him in terms of talent!

It was only at this moment Qing Yi realized how tiny her previous horizons had been, truly a frog at the bottom of the well…

Qing Yi started to understand why, some elders in the clan had always said that Qing Chenyi's talent was not bad in Bright Sun City, but after leaving Bright Sun City, it wasn't much. Back then, quite a few of the members of the younger generation in the Qing family thought that their elders were afraid that Qing Chenyi would grow arrogant and deliberately said this.

But now, Qing Yi, Qing Chenyi and the other younger generation members brought along for the entrance examination, realized that those words of their elders were truly not exaggerated at all. They were simply the truth!

"Wen Lu, bone age 16, Qi Condensation eighth stage!"

A commotion broke out from a nearby testing platform upon hearing what one of the elders doing the testing said.

It turned out that another strong youth with a cultivation of 8th stage Qi Condensation had appeared there, and his bone age was only sixteen!

Qing Chenyi's body shook a bit upon hearing the announcement and clenched his fists as he glared over at the person one year younger than him, worst of all, that younger person had a cultivation far above his!

Today, he was the one who had suffered the greatest blow, his confidence reached an all-time low.

Genius?

Compared to some of the people present here, was he, still considered a genius?

Back in Bright Sun City, he was the undisputed number one genius. Praised by both the younger and older generation.

However, at this moment, his talent was only a bit above average and even that would be a bit of a stretch. The huge gap made it a little difficult for him to accept the sudden change in status.

From the undisputed number one to an ordinary person.

The other disciples of the Qing family were not faring any better.

If even the Qing family's number one genius was worth nothing here, what were they…?

Seeing the depressed state of the Qing family disciples, the first elder sighed a little, but decided not to say anything.

Only after walking out of Bright Sun City would they realize how insignificant they were. Even Qing Chenyi, was nothing much…

These words were not only for Qing Chenyi, Qing Yi, and the other disciples of the Qing family. Even the first elder himself suddenly felt really small in an excessively big world full of unknowns.

A layer of haze slowly started to engulf the hearts of the Qing Family.

Previously, they had a blind belief in Qing Chenyi and that he would enter the Flying Sword Sect without any problems at all. Now, however, things would not be as easy.

The appearance of geniuses that were way more monstrous than Qing Chenyi didn't help the situation at all as the possibility of Qing Chenyi entering the Flying Sword Sect looked bleaker than ever.

The Qing family crisis weighing on their mind didn't help either as all the members of the Qing family worriedly looked in the direction of Qing Chenyi.

Qing Chenyi, could he enter the final top 1000? If not… Then what would happen to the Qing family?

If no one from the Qing family managed to become a disciple of the Flying Sword Sect, then the moment that the Bai family got anyone from the Black Rose Sect over to the Bright Sun City would be the end of the Qing family. Their day of destruction!

Bright Sun City had many different powers, and among them, the two great clans, Qing and Bai, were both well respected.

Among the two great clans, the Qing clan was the strongest, followed by the Bai clan.

The Qing and Bai clan were in opposition. They had accumulated grudges for a long time now, and both of them were constantly fighting each other for control over the city.

It had reached a point where they couldn't resolve it simply by negotiating any longer and a war between the two were inevitable.

The Qing family's overall strength was above that of the Bai Family, so in recent years, the Bai family resulted to a lot of underhand tactics to try and gain an advantage.

Originally, the Qing family had thought that under such circumstances, it would be difficult for the two sides to gain an advantage over the other in a short period of time. However, they didn't expect that something unexpected would happen.

Not long ago, a piece of new arrived and it blew up in the Bright Sun City. Bai Fei, the number one genius of the Bai family, had entered the Black Rose Sect. Not only that, but he was also accepted as a personal disciple of a Nascent Soul Realm Expert of the Black Rose Sect!

An expert at the Nascent Soul Realm!

In that instant, the Qing family was put at an absolute disadvantage.

The Black Rose Sect was a large sect in the northern region of the Heavenly Sky Kingdom. Although it wasn't as powerful as the Flying Sword Sect, the overlord of the northern region, it still had a few Nascent Soul experts overseeing it.

Not to mention the other Nascent Soul experts, even Bai Fei's master alone, a Nascet Soul Realm expert was not something that the Qing family could contend against.

Qing Yang the current head of the Qing family was the strongest expert of Bright Sun City and he was only at the fifth stage of the Core Formation Realm.

To put it more bluntly, a Nascent Soul Realm expert could easily uproot the entire Qing Family.

Even worse, the Bai clan spread news that Bai Fei would return to Bright sun City to participate in the annual Bright Sun City Grand Competition. When he came back, his master would follow him as well.

This was a true disaster for the Qing Clan. All they could do, was hope that they could gain the support of the Flying Sword Sect. Only then would they be safe from the Bai family.

However, as more time passed, more and more geniuses appeared and their hope of entering the Flying Sword Sect slowly grew dimmer and dimmer.
