Training (2)

"One more thing, make sure to raise the seed you received in an individual pot and don't move it until you know what it is. Those rascals collect random seeds, you never know what will grow from them. Once they even managed to get a poisonous herb seed, thankfully they gave it to me, if not I'm afraid it would have killed someone." (GS)

Yan Xiu shuddered, he nodded seriously. 

"Well, that's all. And if you don't know what you raise, make sure to ask me. I also can help you sell the herbs you grow or buy it from you." (GS)

"Thanks, Granny! Then I'll go first, bye-bye." (YX)

"Okay, be safe." (GS)

Yan Xiu and Bai Yuan went to the gate and didn't see anybody, so they went straight to the hunter's house. 

When he arrived, there were already many people there. The head hunter, Chen Hanchen, and Liu Feng were standing in front of the crowd. Behind them were the hunting team that just came back.

In the group lining in front, including Xin Guodan dan Shuang Jingu, there were three additional boys. One of them was Lu Hao.

Lu Hao saw Yan Xiu coming and waved at him, Yan Xiu and Bai Yuan stopped beside him.

"Why are you here?" (YX)

Lu Hao was not a hunter, so why was he here? And who were the other two boys?

"Wait for a little, the head hunter will tell you." (LH)

Sure enough, Not long after Lu Hao said that Xiao Musheng spoke.

"Some of you might know why you are here while some don't, so I'll explain. In less than two months, there will be a disciple recruiting event in Firehowl city. And there are only two criteria to join the event. One, they must have the strength of Qi Refining third stage. Two, they must not be older than twenty years old.

And excluding the hunting team, you are the only group eligible to join the event in the village. So, instructed by the village chief, if you chose to join the event. You will train here until the day we depart to the Firehowl city, which is half a month before the event.

Now, you can choose not to join the event and leave, or join the event and train hard from today on. Of course, even if you don't join the event, you can still join the training.

Now, what do you choose?" (XM)

"Master, question." (??)

Before anyone spoke, a boy from the hunting team raised his hand.

"What is it?" (XM)

"Can someone from the hunting team join the event?" (??)

"Of course, they can. As long as they fulfill the criteria." (XM)

"Then I want to join!" (??)

"Me too!" (??)

"I'll join too." (XL)

"Anyone who wants to join, go line up in front. Anyone who doesn't want to join the event takes a step back." (XM)

Another four people lined up, including Xiao Long. Xin Guodan and Shuang Jingu thought for a bit before stepping back. They knew their talent, they were already nineteen this year and they were only at the fourth stage of the Qi Refining realm. They barely qualified. Even if they went, there probably won't be any sect that would accept them.

It was better to stay in the village and become part of the hunting team. At least, that way they could improve their family living.

As for Lu Hao and the other two from the village, none steps back. After all, their strength qualified and the oldest of the three was just seventeen years old. They wanted to try.

As for the four from the hunting team, the oldest was nineteen years old and the strongest was Xiao Long in the first stage of Inner Foundation. And the other three were in the fifth stage of the Qi Refining stage. How could they not join? After all, entering a sect meant more resources.

Chen Hanchen looked at Yan Xiu who was still in the line. He frowned, he thought Yan Xiu was being wilful. Which was rare of him.

"Little Xiu, you don't fulfill the criteria, so step back. Don't worry, you still have time to try when you are older." (CH)

Chen Hanchen said gently but Yan Xiu shook his head.

"No senior, I already fulfill the criteria, so I'm joining the event." (YX)

"What?" (CH)

Che Hanchen and all the people were shocked. Fulfilled the criteria? Then that meant, Yan Xiu already a fourth stage of the Qi Refining stage? Everyone stared at Yan Xiu, they couldn't believe such a young and cute boy was so strong.

Xiao Musheng looked deeply at Yan Xiu and he found that Yan Xiu didn't lie, he was a fourth stage of the Qi Refining stage.

"When did you reach the fourth stage?" (XM)

With this question, everyone knew that Yan Xiu didn't lie and they were dumbfounded. When did such a monster appear in the village? A 12-year-old with Qi Refining fourth stage power? It was rare even in the city, not to mention in the village. Only big sects or hidden families could cultivate such a monster.

"I just broke through yesterday night." (YX)

Yan Xiu replied honestly. Lu Hao looked at Yan Xiu and smiled wryly, he knew that Yan Xiu's family was not a normal family but he didn't expect to be this abnormal. The father was smart and resourceful, the mother was a beautiful goddess of cuisine and the son was an evildoer. What a family.

But Lu Hao didn't feel envy, he felt happy for Yan Xiu. After all, such strength would help Yan Xiu to find his parents. Of course, he already planned to help Yan Xiu in his search. It was his duty as the elder brother.
