Starting From Fooling the Elderly into Registering for a Cultivation Training Class - Chapter 422

Chapter 422: Sun Luote’s Background

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

In the hall, a virtual projection appeared.

The image displayed the name list of participating Demons.

Xu Longfei said, “The Demons are bringing a total of 32 talented juniors.

“Of the 32, eight are new faces.

“Previously, they were at a critical point in their cultivation and did not participate in the challenge. Now that they are here, they must be trying to save face.”

The image flashed, and a young man with cold eyes appeared on the screen.

Xu Longfei said, “This junior of the Demon race comes from the Roc race and possesses the bloodline of the Golden-Winged Roc. In terms of talent, he can be said to be blessed by the heavens and possesses unlimited potential. He’s one of the best among the younger generation of the Demons.”

In ancient times, the Golden-winged Roc was an extremely ferocious Immortal Beast. The powerful species that fed on dragons were considered top-notch among all Immortal Beasts.

Later on, Immortal Beast secretly practiced immortal arts. In order to escape the fate of being slaves, the Golden-Winged Rocs were the first to rebel.

Since they were fast, they easily escaped the encirclement of Immortal realm experts.

The Golden-Winged Rocs were also one of the first Demons to reach the Emperor realm.

The virtual projection refreshed again, and a fairy-like beauty appeared.

Xu Longfei said, “This one is from the fox race and possesses the bloodline of the Nine-Tailed foxes.

“There’s no need for me to elaborate on the Nine-Tailed foxes, is there? I’m sure everyone knows that she’s probably stronger than the previous one.”

Then, Xu Longfei introduced the remaining six new faces one by one.

The atmosphere in the hall grew tense.

These eight newcomers all had extraordinary backgrounds and powerful bloodlines. Any one of them could rank in the top 50 of the Chosen Roll in the Immortal realm.

The Luo Ding Sect did not even have a disciple qualified to go on the Chosen Roll.

If all eight of them were to fight, they might as well give up and admit defeat.

That was what many elders thought.

Xu Longfei was equally worried. However, his sect was only a second-tier faction; it was unlikely that the Demons would send out such a grand lineup.

In any case, he had already come up with a backup plan. If the demons really did send those eight freaks, they would simply admit defeat.

Compared to the reputation of the sect, Xu Longfei felt that his disciples’ lives were more important.

It wasn’t easy for a sect to nurture a genius, not to mention that the disciples who were eligible to participate in the challenge were all geniuses among geniuses.

The sect had invested way too much into these disciples; there was no way they would just throw their lives away like that.

In the evening.

Inside the forbidden ground.

After the Supreme Venerable Elder ended the operation of the Mustard Domain, the disciples who were cultivating inside came outside one after another.

Sun Luote was the last to appear.

After he came out, apart from Qin Chuan, everyone kept a distance from him, as though he was suffering from an infectious disease.

Qin Chuan took in all these.

He had a good impression of Sun Luote, and pitied him for being ostracized.

But this was nothing new to Sun Luote.

Despite being ostracized, he was smiling.

Qin Chuan walked towards Sun Luote and stopped beside him. Sun Luote was taken aback. “You don’t hate me?”

Qin Chuan replied, “You didn’t do anything, so why should I hate you?”

“But my background…” said Sun Luote faintly.

“I don’t give a damn about your background. I’m from the Lower realm, and of equally low birth. There’s no superiority and inferiority between us.”

With that, Qin Chuan placed his hand on Sun Luote’s shoulder. From afar, one would have thought they were brothers.

Sun Luote was stunned.

This was the first time someone had hooked an arm around his shoulders.

He gazed at Qin Chuan, committing his image of him to memory.

On the other side, when the Luo Ding Sect’s monstrous geniuses saw Qin Chuan and Sun Luote with their arms around each other’s shoulders, a few of them couldn’t help but laugh mockingly and spout harsh words.

Qin Chuan could hear everything, but he resisted the urge to make a move.

At this moment, the Supreme Venerable Elder said, “Tomorrow is the day of the challenge. I understand that you have been cultivating in the Mustard Domain for a long time, and that must have been tough on you.

“So have a good night’s rest to replenish your energy and welcome tomorrow’s battle in superb condition.

“Similarly, don’t put too much pressure on yourself.”

A disciple asked, “Elder, what are the arrangements for tomorrow’s match?”

“There are some changes in the rules this time. We’ll be using a machine for random matches.”

“Random match ups? That’s so unfair,” complained a disciple. “What if they tamper with the machines and let the strong fight the weak?

Then our chances of winning would be much lower.”

“Yeah! The initiative is in the hands of the Demons. It’s a disadvantage to us.”

“Don’t worry about that. We’ll definitely examine the machine closely. We won’t let them cheat.”

The disciples were still a little worried, but the Supreme Venerable Elder continued. “It’s getting late. Go back and have a good rest.

“The disciples of the second and third divisions, an elder will bring you to your residences.”

Since the Supreme Venerable Elder had spoken, they had no choice but to obey.

Qin Chuan and Sun Luote left the forbidden ground together. An elder approached them and led them to their residences.

Sun Luote was from the second branch, and there were two others with him.

As they were unwilling to stay in the same building as Sun Luotu, they arranged for him to stay in the same building as Qin Chuan.

The two of them were separated by a level, and at night, Qin Chuan arrived outside Sun Luote’s room.

“Senior Brother Sun!” Qin Chuan knocked on the door.

Sun Luote opened the door very quickly.

He was very happy to see Qin Chuan and specially prepared a table full of fruits.

He had brought these fruits from the Mustard Domain.

Due to the abundance of spiritual energy in the Mustard Domain, these fruits naturally contained a lot of spiritual energy.

A single bite from it could neutralize all poisons and extend one’s lifespan.

Qin Chuan didn’t understand why Sun Luote loved fruits so much, like a monkey.

“Why are you looking for me, Junior Brother Qin?” asked Sun Luote.

“It’s nothing. It’s boring to be alone in the room. I didn’t feel like sleeping anyway, so I came over to chat with you.”

As he spoke, Qin Chuan took out a wine jar. He had secretly taken ajar from the Moon Wolves.

“Do you want a drink, Senior Brother Sun?”

Sun Luote waved his hand dismissively. “I’m a terrible drinker; I get drunk after one cup.

“You better drink by yourself!” Qin Chuan nodded. “Alright then!”

He poured himself a cup.

“What do you want to talk about, Junior Brother Qin? I’ve been cultivating in the Luo Ding Sect for less than a hundred years, but I do know a thing or two about the gossip,” said Sun Luote with great interest.

Qin Chuan was the first person to approach him for a chat, and he was looking forward to it.

Qin Chuan took a small sip of his wine. After putting down his wine cup, he looked at Sun Luote. “I’m not that interested in gossip, but I’m curious about you, Senior Brother.”

Sun Luote, who was munching on some fruits, stopped.

Qin Chuan said, “Senior Brother Sun, you always mention your birth. I’m very curious about it.

“If I have offended you, you don’t have to tell me.”

Sun Luote put down the fruit, he decided that even if he didn’t say anything, others would still tell Qin Chuan.

In his heart, he already regarded Qin Chuan as his friend.

What he believed was that friends should be honest and trust each other.

He didn’t want to lose his friend,

“Junior Brother Qin, my background is no secret in the Luo Ding Sect. If you want to know, I can tell you.

“Strictly speaking, I’m not considered a human.”

Qin Chuan was taken aback by these words..
