Chapter 118 - Inner Family Qualifiers!
Now that the matter of the Violet Demonic Lizard was settled, Liu Yuan smiled when he saw the pleasant surprise on Long Chen’s face, feeling proud of what he perceived as Long Chen’s passion towards it.
Long Chen was a huge surprise to him. It had been a long time since he had a surprise like that, so the old man was overjoyed.
At the same time, he was also very satisfied with his daughter, because he knew that Long Chen reached this level largely due to Liu Lan’s pressure. Lan’er has already explained the matter about the Blood Saints to him. I don’t need to remind him about it again. But I do need to talk to him about the other thing.
Liu Yuan said, “Long Chen, do you know about the next inner family qualifiers?”
Inner family qualifiers?
Long Chen had only heard from Gan Lin that the inner families recruited extremely outstanding disciples from the outer families to be nurtured. However, he had also said that Long Chen had to be at the Earthly Core Realm. Am I also involved in the inner family qualifiers?
“The outer families have started to nominate members to be recruited. I also have the right to nominate, so I will submit your details to them in a few days’ time. As long as you pass the examination, you will have a chance to participate in the qualifiers!”
Long Chen suddenly felt like he had behaved a little too well in front of Liu Yuan and hurriedly thanked the old man for his kindness. “I will repay your kindness a hundred-fold, Sect Elder!”
“Hehe ...”
Liu Yuan stroked his beard. He’d previously underestimated Long Chen and even mildly reprimanded him. Even he was a little embarrassed that his attitude had completely changed, now that he was treating Long Chen so well.
“But, Long Chen, don’t celebrate too early. You’re still at the Human Core Realm, which doesn’t fulfill their requirements. You must work hard as soon as possible. You’ll only stand a chance if you get the Violet Demonic Lizard’s Beast Soul and elevate your cultivation level before the qualifiers.”
“Are the inner family’s qualifiers that difficult?” Long Chen probed.
Liu Yuan nodded helplessly. “They are indeed difficult. Usually, only about twenty people pass the examination, but only two of those will be recruited in the end. In fact, I only want you to participate so you can appear in front of the other families. If you truly want to enter the inner family, all I can say is that it is very, very, very difficult.”
Although Long Chen knew that becoming an inner family member meant access to more resources, better training, and faster improvements, he was not in a hurry. Based on Liu Yuan’s words, it truly was very difficult.
Liu Yuan lamented, “The only youth in the Turquoise family with a potential value of five stars is the Turquoise Imperial family’s Chu Yunxi. He has turned eighteen this year and has already reached the mid Earthly Core Realm. He has been nominated and will enter the qualifiers.”
Liu Yuan spoke with great emotion when he mentioned Chu Yunxi, though when he saw Liu Lan glaring at him a little angrily, he froze and fell silent.
Chu Yunxi? Eighteen? Mid Earthly Core Realm?
Long Chen was stunned upon learning that all the people he met previously, like Huang Feiyang and Feng Wutian, were nothing. Chu Yunxi was the true prodigy. Once again, he realized how small his worldview was.
He thought he could truly be called a prodigy when he defeated Feng Wutian, but now, it seemed he was still quite far away from that. There is still a long way to go ...
Liu Yuan continued, “This is it for today. You must be exhausted after the training exercise. You may leave.”
Long Chen nodded and bade them farewell, turning to leave. Everyone was deep in thought when they watched him leave with his back proudly straight. “Lan’er, follow me.”
“Don’t worry about that. Basically, a small, quick improvement like this won’t cause any problems.”
Ling Xi came from a powerful faction and was more knowledgeable than Long Chen and the people around him, so he completely believed her. “Alright, I’ll continue to work hard, then. I need to first pull out the thorn that is the Blood Saints, then I can plan my future appropriately.”
“Mhm!”
Ling Xi nodded hard, then she held out a palm and looked at him mischievously. “I want more!”
“What?” Long Chen froze.
“Food!” exclaimed Ling Xi, seeing as Long Chen didn’t understand her.
Long Chen said in exasperation, “Oh! I need to extract the Beast Souls I collected, then head to the Treasure Pavilion to get you some herbs.”
“Good boy.” Ling Xi smiled contentedly. She looked beautiful when she smiled, squinting so her eyes became crescent moons.
Long Chen smiled bitterly. “You used up a lot of your power when you got me the Blazing Thunder Crystals, so I’d already decided to buy you more stuff after leaving the Heavenly Martial Realm. This is a good time.”
“Blazing Thunder Crystals?” Ling Xi jumped up, “Right, you’re now at the mid-Human Core Realm, so your Qi has increased by at least tenfold. You can now suppress more Blazing Thunder Crystals.”
“You mean I can absorb more crystals?” he asked, surprised.
“Of course. You can try it if you don’t believe me.”
He believed her, of course. But he was in no hurry.
He went to the underground room, unpacking his bounty. “I have six Category Two Black-tier demonic cores and Beast Souls. But these aren’t worth much. The most valuable items are the Flaming Golden Lion’s and the Heart Eater’s Beast Souls and demonic cores.”
“How much money is that?” Ling Xi’s eyes were filled with stars.
“The two items from the Flaming Golden Lion should be worth about twenty contribution points, while the Heart Eater’s soul and core should be worth more than two hundred contribution points.”
“And how much money is that?” she asked, too lazy to calculate it herself.
“That’s the equivalent of more than two thousand divine jades.”
Long Chen recalled the five hundred points Liu Yuan had mentioned. That Category Six Black-tier Beast Soul was a hundred times more valuable than Category Four, but he had asked Long Chen to buy it for only five hundred contribution points. It was basically a gift at that point.
“That means that to get that Beast Soul worth a hundred thousand divine jades, I will need to kill quite a few Category Four Black-tier beasts, each equivalent to an Earthly Core Realm cultivator!”
After some calculation, Long Chen gasped. He thought accumulating five hundred points would be easy, but after some calculation, he realized it would be difficult. “That Heart Eater appeared in the Human Core area, so it must be the weakest type among all the Category Four Black-tier beasts. That was the only reason we could kill it.”
When he mentioned a hundred thousand divine jades, Ling Xi reminded him, “Hey, don’t go daydreaming. Where are you going to get a hundred thousand divine jades for that Beast Soul? If you go to the Treasure Pavilion, that old man is going to hit the roof.”
Long Chen suddenly realized that selling it would be an issue of its own. If Liu Yuan gave Long Chen the Beast Soul but never saw him cultivate it, doubts would arise. And when that happened, Long Chen wouldn’t know how to explain himself.
“Whatever, I don’t want to think about it anymore. I need to first extract and condense the Heart Eater’s Beast Soul, then we’ll head to the Treasure Pavilion.”
