ραпdα nᴏνa| сom

Time was fleeting and Qing did her best to kill as many demon beasts as possible. She even went deeper into the Demon Beast Forest and managed to kill a demon beast at the peak third stage Qi Condensation Realm. This result could overall be considered average among the participants and did not even put her close to the top 1000.

One must know that Qing Yi's cultivation was at the fourth stage of Qi Condensation! At the fourth stage of Qi Condensation, she had only managed to kill a single peak third stage Qi Condensation demonic beast. This result was indeed poor as she didn't even manage to kill a demon beast at the same stage as herself.

The moment she walked out of the Demon Beast Forest; Qing Yi shakenly sat down on the ground as her little face slowly turned pale.

She did not expect that the demon beasts in the Demon Beast Forest would be so terrifying. Fighting back at the brink of death, savage and murderous. Compared to the battles she went through today, what she had done in the past seemed like a complete joke.

Although the results from the final test had not yet come out, Qing Yi was almost certain that she would not be able to enter the list of one thousand people qualified to enter the Flying Sword Sect.

Afterall, she failed at killing something at the same cultivation realm as herself, it was only barely that she managed to even kill a demon beast at the peak of the third stage.

Behind her, Qing Chenyi was also pale as he walked out of the Demon Beast Forest.

His performance in the Demon Beast Forest had been no better than Qing Yi's.

Although the number of demon beasts that he killed far surpassed Qing Yi. The level of the demon beasts was only around the fourth and fifth stage of the Qi Condensation Realm. All of them were below the sixth stage of Qi Condensation!

It was not that he did not manage to find any sixth stage demon beasts, on the other hand, he encountered quite a few of them.

At first, he had tried to fight them, but he was instantly suppressed as soon as the fight began, and he was forced to run away.

It wasn't that Qing Chenyi and Qing Yi hadn't fought against demon beasts before. Within the Bright Sun City, there were several captive demon beasts whom the elders of the family had caught for training the younger generation.

Their strengths were all different, ranging from the third to the ninth stage of the Qi Condensation Realm.

Normally, the younger generations of the Qing family were frequently tasked with fighting the demon beasts captured by their elders, with the purpose of them training their actual combat experience.

Originally, most of the Qing family disciple had thought that the demon beast in the Demon Beast Forest were around the same level of strength as the demon beast back in the clan. However, most of them found out after the first exchange how different the demon beasts of the Demon Beast Forest were.

The demon beasts in the Demon Beast Forest were wild, savage and bloodthirsty, while the ones in the Qing family were tame house pets.

Not much of a difference in strength?

It was like the difference between day and night!

The demon beasts that the Qing family raised were also at the sixth stage of Qi Condensation. Qing Chenyi could easily defeat five or more alone!

However, any of the sixth stage Qi Condensation demon beasts that he encountered in the Demon Beast Forest could easily beat him.

At this moment, Qing Chenyi finally understood that there was a stark difference in demon beasts that were also at the sixth stage of Qi Condensation, just the demon beasts inside the forest were more than enough for him to realize how weak the demon beasts that his Qing family raised was.

"Done with your thoughts lad? The rankings will be out in a moment, follow me back to the examination grounds." Qing Chenyi turned around and looked at the elder from the Flying Sword Sect who had appeared behind him at some moment.

Nodding his head weakly, Chenyi looked at the other disciples from the Qing family and let out a sigh.

Hopefully, he would be able to get in… If not… Qing Chenyi did not dare let his thoughts wander as he quickly followed behind the elder from the Flying Sword Sect.

After the Second round of the test was completed, the huge screen that previously had the contestants on it was replaced by a giant ranking screen. On the screen, the results of all the participants in the second test were counted.

Among them was Wen Lu!

At the first stage, Wen Lu was ranked first with his bone age at 16 and a cultivation already at the 8th stage of Qi Condensation. During this second test, Wen Lu did not disappoint and was still first place!

Looking at the battle accomplishments displayed on the big screen, Qing Yi and the other Qing disciples were shocked. Qing Chenyi was even shocked to the point that he couldn't speak.

Wen Lu: 1st place, Achievements: 2 ninth stage Qi Condensation and 7 eighth stage Qi Condensation demon beasts!

Wen Lu's cultivation base was only at the eighth stage of Qi Condensation. However, two demon beasts who surpassed the eighth stage and had already reached the peak of the Qi Condensation Realm, the ninth stage, had died in his hands!

They were above his cultivation realm!

Qing Yi and the other Qing family disciple knew very well how terrifying those demon beasts from the Demon Beast Forest were. Not to mention crossing smaller realms to kill one, it was difficult to defeat one at the same stage, let alone kill them.

As for Wen Lu, not only had he killed seven demon beasts at the same cultivation realm as himself, but he had also managed to kill two demon beasts one minor realm above himself.

Below Wen Lu was a man named Long Li.

Although Long Li was not as impressive as Wen Lu, he had still managed to kill a demon beast with a cultivation higher than himself!

Qing Yi's gaze continuously shifted downwards. Soon she found Qing Chenyi.

Qing Chenyi: 2854 place, Achievements: 2 fifth stage and 6 fourth stage demon beasts.

On the other side, Qing Chenyi also saw his ranking.

Although Qing Chenyi had expected it, he hadn't expected that he would be ranked as low as the bottom of two thousand…

Qing Chenyi also looked at the ranking of Bai Cheng. It was over 7000, even lower than him. For some reason, after seeing Bai Cheng's ranking Qing Chenyi heaved a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, that fellow from the Bai family did not enter and was ranked below him.

Qing Yi let out a sad sigh as she finally found her own ranking at the bottom of the screen.

Qing Yi: 9796 place, Achievements: 1 third stage demon beast.

Was her Qing family destined to not enter the Flying Sword Sect…?
