Capítulo 33: The Great Assessment
By now Jian Xinyi had figured out many things behind Jian Shen's explosive growth.
Most likely the talent test had been rigged, and due to this Jian Shen's talent was shown as bad. But now, somehow he must've obtained some resources, or a decent cultivation technique due to which he managed to use his talent and grow strong.
If only had she learnt of his talent before so many years, who knows how strong Jian Shen would've been by now.
Regretting the fact that she hasn't made sure to check his talent back then, and was only able to figure it out now, Xinyi decided to personally train him from now on. And get him ready for the upcoming recruitment examination which was arranged by the four of the five great sects.
Once Jian Shen came out of his room, Xinyi noticed that he didn't bring anything back with him. And even the white sword be had was missing.
Luckily before she asked her doubts, Xinyi saw that there was a spatial ring on his hand.
Guessing that it was most likely given to him by the same one who sent a guard to keep him safe from the shadows, Xinyi finally felt a little curious on trying to figure out the person's identity.
But, that could all wait. For now, she needed to help Jian Shen train as much as possible and make up for all the years he missed.
"Where are we going, Xinyi?"
For as long as he could remember, Jian Shen always called his aunt Xinyi, since she had told him to.
"For now, let's find a big empty courtyard. I need it to help you train and pass the assessment."
Walking beside her, Jian Shen looked at her and asked, "What assessment?"
"I guess it's normal you don't know, since no one probably told it to you."
Understanding that Jian Shen had truly undergone many hardships from just that one question, Xinyi decided to try her best and make his life as happy as possible.
"Long story short, four of the five great sects recruit all of their disciples at the same time every five years. It's known as the Great Assessment."
"During this everyone below the age of twenty five, and with a cultivation of at least the Qi Refinement Realm are allowed to join."
"The assessment is a one on one battle to obtain the top thousand participants who are free to select and join whichever of the four sects they want."
"Luckily for you, since your cultivation is in the Qi Liquification Realm, you don't have to partake in all of the battles. You can directly join the fight in the top hundred, and aim for a spot in the top fifty."
"Once you obtain a rank in the top fifty, you can directly join as an inner disciple at any of the four great sects. Furthermore, the top ten receive special prizes which will be greatly useful in helping you breakthrough to the Qi Earth Realm."
"Other than this, if any of the elders representing their sects take a liking to you, you don't even need to partake in the fights."
"All you need to do is make sure to reach the top fifty Jian Shen, I'll take care of the rest and make you a core disciple in the Myriad Flame Sect."
While Jian Shen was thinking about everything that Xinyi said, they had walked far enough from the palace and stopped in front of a big courtyard.
Not even concerned about who owned it, Xinyi walked up to the gates and pushed them open.
If it was another time, she would've kicked them down. But not this time, since she planned on living there for a while.
Going inside before the guards could even say anything, Xinyi knocked them down one by one and entered the main room.
Not even bothering to look at the man who was most likely the owner of the courtyard, Xinyi took out a pouch from her spatial ring and dropped it on the table.
"I want this courtyard for the next three months. Get out, and take everyone else with you."
Out of the pouch real gold coins spilt out making both Jian Shen's and the man's eyes pop out.
Inside the Deng Kingdom, the common currency used was Denms, but outside of it, only gold coins were accepted as currency.
If just the gold coins weren't enough the emblem of burning flames on her robe was more than enough to convince.
"You can use this courtyard for however long you want, lady from the Myriad Flame Sect."
Saying so the man picked up the pouch and ran outside, and called for the servants to leave with him, while dragging the fainted guards.
Once everyone else had left, there were only Jian Shen and his aunt inside the huge courtyard.
Nodding her head, Xinyi said, "This place will do. We'll start your training tomorrow, so tell me what you want to eat. Let's have a huge feast in celebration of you leaving the palace forever, and me being announced as the next Sect Leader of the Myriad Flame Sect."
Listening completely Jian Shen paused for a few seconds as his eyes once again turned wide.
"You're... You're the next Sect Master??!"
Once Xinyi nodded her head, Jian Shen laughed loudly and said, "As expected of my aunt! You're just as talented as I am!"
"I'm supposed to be the one who says those words brat! Now tell me all about how you grew so fast."
