30 - The Competition Schedule is Advancing!

Fuuuh~

Xiao Long exhaled after recovering his injuries and cultivating a bit to balance his strength to prepare to break through to the Core Formation Realm.

When his battle with Hai Jian reached its peak, Xiao Long suddenly got the power that allowed him to break through to the Core Formation directly. But Xiao Long held back and prepared for the perfect time to break through.

Xiao Long lay down on his comfortable bed and looked around the room. “Rather than being called a room, this is more like a home. Core Disciples are truly privileged.”

After defeating Hai Jian, Xiao Long went to the Disciple Hall to renew his Identity Token. In addition to renewing the Identity Token, Xiao Long also got 50 Spirit Stones and a gold-plated uniform which was the Core Disciple's uniform. With this, Xiao Long officially became the 80th Seat Core Disciple of the Myriad Flame Sect.

He was initially surprised when he saw the 'room' that the 80th Seat was reserved for. The 'room' was a building about 5 meters high and 8 meters wide. It also contained complete rooms, such as a bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and cultivation room. And that person in the Student Hall said this was a room, do they not know the concept of a room or a house?

“The next step is just breaking through the Core Formation Realm, right? Looks like I'll have to wait for Elder Li to refine the High Grade Grand Earth Pill, even if it's a while.” Xiao Long said. Elder Li's development in refining pills was indeed worthy of thumbs up.

Knock Knock!

Xiao Long heard a knocking sound from the front door. He went to open the door and saw a fiery red-haired youth who looked younger than him. This young man quite surprised him in some ways. He was a very young Core Disciple, probably around 15 years old. Not just young, his cultivation had even entered the Final Stage of Spirit Initiate Realm.

But he had a guess about his identity by looking at his fiery red hair color and his high-level talent, he was most likely the family of Sect Leader Huo Yifan or even his son.

“Are you the new 80th Seat holder, Xiao Long?” He said with a friendly smile.

“Ah yes, that's right. I'm Xiao Long.” Xiao Long said.

“My name is Huo Yan. I was ordered here by the Sect Leader to bring you to the Main Palace, there is something to discuss about the Luhuo Mountain Competition.” The young man named Huo Yan said as he shook Xiao Long's hand.

“Ooh?” This young man's name was Huo Yan, no doubt he was a relative of the Sect Leader. “Alright, I'm free anyway”

After that, Xiao Long went to the magnificent Main Palace. Arriving there, Xiao Long saw three other people besides the Sect Leader.

“Ooh this is him! I introduce to you, the person who defeated Hai Jian and took the 80th Seat with his cultivation only in the Peak Earth Foundation Realm, Xiao Long” Sect Leader said upon seeing Xiao Long enter the room.

Instantly, the room fell silent. None of the three people moved an inch, seemingly not interested at all in what the Sect Leader was saying. Of course, these three people were Core Disciples who had strengths equal to or even stronger than Huo Yan, they would not pay attention to someone in the 80th Seat. Although he already knew it would be like this, Xiao Long still felt annoyed.

“Hmm I knew you guys would not be interested in such a small thing. But what if I told you that he was also the one who destroyed the Talent Appraisal Stone a few months ago?” Added the Sect Leader.

Suddenly the three people were startled and turned their heads at the same time, watching Xiao Long in detail, even going so far as to use Spiritual Sense. But of course their Spiritual Sense could not see through Xiao Long. This made them even more curious about Xiao Long who was the owner of a talent that was beyond the Violet Talent.

“Ooh?” Xiao Long could now see the three people clearly as they turned to him and aimed their Spiritual Senses impolitely.

These three people were about the same age as him. One of them had an ordinary face with a tall skinny posture and green hair. The other had a tall muscular body with slanted eyes and short hair. The last one was a woman with tied up hair and a face that could rival Xue Ruo's, although Xue Ruo was prettier of course.

And surprisingly, the two men had strength at the Spirit Initiate Final Stage and the woman had Peak Spirit Initiate cultivation. They could be called genius talents in the Four Continents.

“Hello Senior Brothers and Sisters. As Sect Leader said, I am Xiao Long. Ah, before the meeting starts I will remind you guys, checking someone using Spiritual Sense is not good especially if caught” Xiao Long smiled before sitting across the three people.

“Heh what are you going to do if I check you using Spiritual Sense?” Said the thin man.

“For now, I can't do anything to you. But with your weak Spiritual Sense, you can't see anything into me.” Xiao Long said with a chuckle.

“You!-”

“Enough! Since everyone has gathered, I'll start this meeting” said the Sect Leader, stopping the thin man who was getting angry with Xiao Long's remarks.

“Ah I forgot, Yan'er, you first introduce these three people to Xiao Long” Sect Leader said to Huo Yan.

Huo Yan nodded before turning to Xiao Long and pointing at the three people across from him. “The muscular man over there is named Yao Shan, 17th Seat Core Disciple. The thin man in the middle is called Feng Ying, Core Disciple Seat 13. And the beautiful woman on the left is named Xu Lanyi, Core Disciple Seat 8.”

Xiao Long nodded when Huo Yan introduced the three people. He was quite surprised that the woman named Xu Lanyi turned out to be Seat 8.

“Alright, the introductions are done, I will now begin. As told by Huo Yan, I will discuss about the Luhuo Mountain Competition. A few months ago the Luhuo Mountain Competition would be held one year later. But now I got news that the Luhuo Mountain Competition was advanced and will be held 2 months from now”

What?!

The Sect Leader's words really shocked them, the Luhuo Mountain Competition was advanced to 2 months from now which should be half a year away.

However, even more surprised was Xiao Long. He had originally agreed to join the Luhuo Mountain Competition because he had expected that he could break through to the Spirit Initiate Realm within a year. But now, the Sect Leader received news that the Luhuo Mountain Competition was advanced to 2 months away.

In just two months, Xiao Long could at most break through to the Mid Stage of Core Formation, and even then with treasures equal to High Grade Grand Earth Pills. With his strength in the Core Formation Realm, would he be able to defeat someone in the Spirit Manifestation Realm or even a Peak Spirit Initiate?

“This is bad news in my opinion. I'm sure the Eastern Continent's top sects already have disciples 20 years old and below who broke through the Spirit Manifestation Realm, whereas we're only at the Spirit Initiate Realm. There is no way those of us who are only Spirit Initiates can defeat someone with strength in the Spirit Manifestation Realm.” Yao Shan said with a sigh.

“You are too gentle despite having a big body, Yao Shan. If it were me, I'm sure I could defeat them even with the power of a Final Stage Spirit Initiate. Well of course someone in the Earth Foundation Realm who only has high talent would be humiliated” Feng Ying said arrogantly.

Xiao Long just stayed silent without responding to what Feng Ying said. So was Xu Lanyi, who was always calm even when hearing news that should be shocking.

“I got some pretty shocking info that the reason for the advancement of the Luhuo Mountain Competition was because there was a genius born in the Demonic Fate Sect. He has a Mid Stage Spirit Initiate Realm cultivation, but his terrifying strength is able to defeat someone in the Spirit Manifestation Realm.

Even so, his true strength was still mysterious. But what was clear was that he had an extremely high talent, the Violet Talent. It was easy for him to break through to the Spirit Manifestation Realm in half a year with his high talent. If he broke through to the Spirit Manifestation Realm, the Luhuo Mountain's right would have definitely fallen into the hands of the Demonic Fate Sect. This is what caused the Luhuo Mountain Competition to be advanced” said the Sect Leader seriously.

Someone with Violet Talent was born in the Demonic Fate Sect! This is bad news for the sects in the Eastern Continent!
