REVEREND INSANITY
Round 81: Stage two Early stage!

Round 81: Stage two Early stage!

The footsteps drew closer, and before long the dark green trees on the side of the slope were forcefully separated. A tall man stepped forward, appearing in Fang Yuan's sight.

He had black short hair, each strand standing upright. The upper part of his body was naked. He had a large and thick body, his entire body muscles were bright red in color.

It was nearly two meters tall, and during the cold autumn, he let out a feeling like a moving cauldron, each of his breaths capable of raising the temperature around him.

On his waist, several corpses of ferocious beasts were hung. There were foxes, wild rabbits, and chickens, not to mention the old wolf that had just left.

Looking at Fang Yuan, he was a little surprised, but quickly took a big step and walked past Fang Yuan.

“Gu Yue Chi Shan.” Seeing the big man's back leave, Fang Yuan thought of his name.

He was a representative of the Chi faction, possessing rank two top-tier cultivation. His experience was even similar to Fang Yuan's.

This person was also extremely talented, possessing immense strength since young. At the age of ten he accidentally beat a family servant to death, and at the age of twelve he could hold a heavy stone grinder and play it like a frisbee.

Back then, all the family thought him well, thinking he was an A-value. But during the resurrection ceremony, they tested that his talent was only B class.

He had a nature that was originally wild and untameable, looking down on everyone. But he quickly changed after this experience, becoming more mature. Even with his B grade talent, he was the best student at his level.

After a year of study, he graduated from the academy and struggled to reach the top. Years later, he had already become an elite among the second rank Master Gu clans.

Happiness cannot teach the true meaning of one's life, while only pain and suffering can.

“In the clan, a young boy attends the resurrection ceremony at the age of fifteen and enters the academy. At the age of sixteen, they graduated from the academy and formed a group of five people and completed clan missions, at the same time inheriting the family fortune. Of the sixteen, they would fight and compete while continuously improving their cultivation. As the missions became more dangerous, their status would also increase. Some are dead and some are alive. Some were injured, and their cultivation levels dropped, living a simple life afterwards. Some became the third rank Master Gu after all the hardships and advanced to the clan elder, becoming one of the higher-ups. ”

Fang Yuan's gaze shone, thinking of many things.

The more Gu Master cultivated, the harder it was, and progressing became much more difficult. Coupled with the dangerous and difficult living environment, those who could rise to rank three were not many.

“By the way, it's almost winter. That means I have spent almost a year in the academy. There are two exams each year. The first is the mid-year exam, with different content each year. The second was the year-end test, and its contents never changed, becoming a battle arena. After the arena fight, I can no longer stay in the dorm, and I have to move.”

Move, but where?

Fang Yuan could not stay with his aunt and uncle, that was what they wanted.

In this world, sixteen means adulthood, the age to begin reproduction. Coupled with Fang Yuan's many secrets, he had to live independently.

“In my previous life, after leaving the academy, I was only ranked one middle stage. This time, the situation is much better, I will be a rank one stage peak back then. But with C-class talent, getting this far was truly an achievement. Although there was a cost, it cost me a lot of my ancient stones. ”

Fang Yuan's eyebrows shot up, he didn't have many ancient stones left.

Restricted by his talent, the primordial stones he took out to cultivate were far more than Fang Zheng, Chi Cheng or Mo Bei.

He raised six of Gu's worms alone!

Furthermore, the refinement of the Liquor worm, nurturing the pit, using White Boar Gu to increase the strength of — they all needed an ancient essence. After the primordial essence was depleted, with C grade recovery speed, it was unable to meet his needs, so he could only use the primordial stone and take the natural essence within it to refill.

Fortunately he had the Spring Autumn Cricket, and also took out two Gu of the Earth's Treasure Flower, so purifying the Gu worm did not consume much of its ancient stone. It makes him feel a little better.

But after this when he left the academy, he needed to rent a house and earn some income.

After the peak stage, it was to push Rank two. This process will consume a lot of ancient stones.

After Rank two, he still had to combine Gu worms, and every combination effort cost him a great deal.

With all these factors, he became increasingly clear that his financial situation could no longer support him. Furthermore, he still had to continue feeding the Gu worm and continue cultivating.

If not for the mid-year test where he used the boar fangs to exchange some ancient stones and reduce the pressure, he would not have survived until now.

“Prime stone, ancient stone .. The Flower Wine Monk does not give the ancient stone in his legacy, it is a pity. Blackmailing my classmates is still my most important source of income. But after graduation, the academy's perks will stop, and I can't keep blackmailing. But if I get the first one for the year-end exam, I can get a hundred and fifty ancient stones as a reward, ”renung Fang Yuan in his heart.

If he could obtain first place, a hundred and fifty ancient stones would ease his financial hardship for a while.

…

Time passed, the leaves of autumn and winter came.

In the arena in the academy, three stages had been built.

Beside the stage, near the bamboo wall of the arena, there were tents and tables and long chairs.

The academy elders, clan leaders, and a few other clan elders were sitting under the tent.

There is a little snow in the sky.

Fifty-seven students stood tall in the arena. Each of their noses were reddish due to the weather, and every breath they breathed had steam coming out of their noses.

The academy elder spoke loudly, “In a flash, one year has ended. During this year you were trained in the academy and have already started to understand the qualities of a Master Gu. Tomorrow, you will have a year-end exam to test the results of your hard work! Not only will clan leaders and clan elders come personally to watch, elders and seniors of your family will also come to observe to select outstanding students to join their small team. ”

“Your appearance tomorrow, will greatly affect your future. Getting first place, not only are you one hundred and fifty ancient stones, but you also benefit in choosing the Gu worm! Now, begin the final cultivation examination in your academic life! ”

Saying so, the academy elder nodded to a Master Gu beside him.

The female Master Gu received instructions and called out the name of the list, "Gu Yue Jin Zhu!"

A young girl walked towards Master Gu with a nervous expression.

Master Gu stretched out his hand, touching the young girl's stomach. He closed his eyes to feel, then opened his eyes and declared, “Gu Yue Jin Zhu, rank one middle stage. Next, Gu Yue Peng.”

One by one, the youngsters went to check. Then they walked back and returned to the group.

Their expressions were diverse, some were happy and some were annoyed.

The worst result was naturally rank one early stage, all of them were D class talents.

“Gu Yue Chi Cheng.” Master Gu the middle-aged woman called out.

From the group, the shortest Gu Yue Chi Cheng puffed his chest and walked out.

After checking, the female Master Gu opened her eyes, "Gu Yue Chi Cheng, rank one stage pinnacle!"

As of now, this was the first rank one pinnacle stage Gu Master.

The clan elders present turned their heads.

Some elders recognized, saying lightly, "This is Chi Lian's granddaughter, having B-class talent, no wonder."

Outside the tent, the youngsters also commented.

“Chi Cheng is a rank one stage peak, I wonder if Mo Bei is too? After all, they are rivals. ”

“Being able to advance to the peak stage, they are all A and B values. Huh, we classes C and D face bitterness that cannot be envied.”

“Hmph!” Gu Yue Mo Bei snorted, seeing Chi Cheng's proud expression, he was annoyed.

Gu Yue Fang Zheng clenched his fists, his lips tightly clenched, as if holding back his emotions.

“Gu Yue Mo Bei.” Shortly after, the examiner called.

The horse-faced Mo Bei quickly walked out.

"Gu Yue Mo Bei, rank one stage peak." With this statement, he walked back and stared intently at Gu Yue Chi Cheng as he returned.

The examination continued, and the snow in the sky became smaller, until it disappeared.

The cold air is rather refreshing.

"Gu Yue Fang Yuan." Master Gu the middle-aged woman called out.

Fang Yuan walked expressionlessly.

Immediately after, he opened his eyes, looking at Fang Yuan in shock, before declaring, "Gu Yue Fang Yuan, rank one stage pinnacle!"

“Rank one stage peak, did I hear wrong? Fang Yuan was cultivating to this level? ” Young people surprised.

“Huh, he's just lucky, to have a Liquor worm to maintain his aperture. Even against the value of A and B, with his C value he was not harmed.” Some young people said with envy.

Especially the talents of C class, they wryly said to entertain themselves, “This is not much. Liquor Worms were unable to purify rank two primordial essence, Fang Yuan would no longer have such an advantage anymore. ”

"Even if he's the top of the stage, he's still C-class, it's none of our business." Mo Bei and Chi Cheng looked at Fang Yuan, but quickly turned their attention to Fang Zheng, who was still waiting for his turn.

In their hearts, only Fang Zheng's A-class talent was a competitor.

“Brother, you surprised me. But from now on, pay close attention ..” Fang Zheng looked at Fang Yuan who was walking down, his eyes shining and revealing an expression of anticipation.

"Gu Yue Fang Zheng." The female Master Gu finally said.

"A class A talent?" The clan elders focused their attention on Fang Zheng.

Fang Zheng walked out of the crowd, he could feel the pressure this gaze brought him, causing him to become a little nervous.

But when he saw the smile of clan leader Gu Yue Bo, the nervousness in his heart melted.

He walked in front of the female Master Gu.

He closed his eyes, and then suddenly opened his eyes, saying in shock, "Gu Yue Fang Zheng, cultivation level — Rank two stage early!"

Explosions.

The young ones exploded into a wave of discussion.

"What, he reached Rank two ?!"

"As expected of an A-grade talent genius."

“Unbelievable, he left Mo Bei, Chi Cheng, and Fang Yuan in the dust.”

"This Fang Zheng!" Instantly, Mo Bei and Chi Cheng looked at Fang Zheng in shock.

"Hehehe, it's actually higher than my previous life ..." Fang Yuan's eyelids drooped as he laughed. He was not surprised, and after observing Fang Zheng's expression earlier, he could guess the result.

“After all, talent class.”

"The hope of our clan."

"This is a tribute from the nurturing of the clan leader ..."

The clan elders praised.

Instantly, Fang Zheng became the center of attention.

Half a year ago, Gu Yue Bo gave her Jade Skin Gu and asked her to be the first person to rise to Rank two. He did!

“Clan leader, I did not disappoint you, I succeeded! From now on, I will achieve even more, gaining the approval of the clan elders and the people around me. Brother, I have left you, you are no longer a shadow in my heart. I, Gu Yue Fang Zheng, am no longer the person from long ago!”

Fang Zheng shouted in his heart, his eyes shining with a kind of brilliance.

This brilliance, called confidence!
