Volume 1: Rebellion in Chang'an Chapter 66: Fame
Fang Qian was stunned when he heard this: "It's already this late, and there are still people from your Lu family who haven't come out of the Ruins Realm?"
As a family ranked in the middle of the Xujie Alliance, the Lu family has always been low-key and has never attracted attention.
If Lu Zhou hadn't mentioned this, no one on the scene would have noticed that there were still children of the Lu family in the Ruins.
Immediately, the Lu family became the focus of everyone on the field.
After a careful count, everyone found
Xujie is a small world where there is no danger to life.
Therefore, it is impossible that Lu Qingshan died in the ruins.
The only possibility is that the Lu family's descendant is indeed still in the Ruins Realm and has not yet finished the Ruins Realm trial.
The cultivators who participated in the test of the Ruins Realm immediately began to discuss among themselves.
When they died in the Ruins Realm, the situation in had reached the point where the high-level cultivators had completely lost, and countless high-level demons were killing them, the low-level cultivators.
It was a massacre.
So much time has passed, they couldn't imagine how Lu Qingshan, who hadn't come out yet, could have not finished his trial in this situation.
Hearing the discussions among the surrounding monks, Fang Qian's heart skipped a beat.
He thought of Lu Zhou's previous move, which went against common sense and bet on the Lu family to win the championship.
If he still can't react, then he has lived in vain.
This old scoundrel almost got me into trouble. Fortunately, I was more careful, otherwise I would have lost everything.
Fang Qian gritted his teeth in hatred.
…
Time passes by little by little.
Some people had previously suspected that Lu Qingshan's final rating might not be higher than Ke's B-level.
After all, the final rating of the trial in the Ruins is not determined by the length of time one survives in it.
However, the time Lu Qingshan had stayed in the Xu Realm was longer than one could imagine.
No matter how he managed to survive in the Ruins for so long, there is no doubt that the rating Lu Qingshan will get in the end will be higher than that of everyone else.
The monks present, apart from shock, felt the greatest emotion of curiosity.
We are all Qi-refining cultivators, there is no reason why Lu Qingshan could be so much stronger than others.
Obviously, Lu Qingshan must have made some special discovery in the ruins.
This discovery is likely to be replicated.
The Jindan monks who led the major families suddenly became active in their thoughts.
They were thinking in their minds how to make a deal with the Lu family in exchange for first-hand information about this world.
The high-level skills and techniques of the ancient sects are extremely tempting to them.
Thinking of this, several Jindan cultivators who had this thought in their minds looked at the Lu family's team with meaningful eyes.
A long time passed, so long that the cultivators present began to doubt whether there were other ways to leave the ruins.
The entrance passage to the Xujie finally began to ripple again.
Everyone quickly turned their eyes to the entrance.
A ripple appeared, and then a figure stepped out from the dark passage.
It was Lu Qingshan.
Everyone looked at Lu Qingshan's figure as it appeared, and the leading Jindan cultivators of each family were shocked.
Lu Zhou's pupils also shrank suddenly.
Because after he habitually probed his spiritual sense towards Lu Qingshan.
He already knew Lu Qingshan's current realm.
Foundation-building monk!
Before Lu Qingshan entered the Xu Realm, he was only a cultivator at the tenth level of Qi Refining.
But when he came out, he had already reached the foundation-building stage.
A trace of doubt flashed through the hearts of the leading monks of the major families in the Xujie Alliance.
Aren’t the rewards in the Xu Realm just the inheritance of skills and techniques?
But I have never heard that the Xu Realm can help cultivators improve their cultivation.
Is there something else in the Ruins that they haven't figured out?
But these are secondary at the moment.
The most important thing is that a young foundation-building cultivator appeared before their eyes.
Is there twenty?
Someone speculated in his heart.
…
The Lu family may be on the verge of rising.
This thought flashed through everyone's mind.
Lu Zhou's heart was already filled with turmoil.
Others may not understand, but Lu Qingshan is a member of his Lu family. How could he not understand Lu Qingshan’s age?
This is a fifteen-year-old foundation-building cultivator.
Moreover, if he remembered correctly, it seemed that Lu Qingshan had only spent three months from sensing Qi to building the foundation?
He couldn't imagine the meaning of this.
Perhaps in a dozen years or so, the Lu family will have another Jindan cultivator?
Even Nascent Soul cultivators have great hope?
…
The tenth level of Qi Refining and the foundation building stage seem to be only separated by a very small realm, but there is a world of difference between them.
Even Lu Bei, the most talented person in their Lu family, stopped at this threshold for two years before crossing it.
As for why I said before.
Lu Zhou's lips curled up into a smile unconsciously.
Qing Ling, this time, the title of the Lu family's most talented cultivator should be given to your son.
Perhaps, it is not just the Lu family's number one talented cultivator. There would be no problem in expanding the scope to Zhenjiang Prefecture?
This thought occurred to Lu Zhou again.
Because, when he thought about it carefully, it seemed that before Lu Qingshan, he had never heard of a foundation-building cultivator who was only fifteen years old in Zhenjiang Prefecture?
…
"Master Lu Zhou, it seems that your Lu family should be the winner of the Qi Refining Realm in this Xujie Trial." Fang Qian's eyes flashed, and he came forward and took the initiative to greet him, "Fortunately, Master Lu Zhou showed mercy and only bet two fourth-grade spirit stones, otherwise my Fang Qian's family assets would have been emptied by you."
After saying this, Fang Qian turned his gaze towards Lu Qingshan and said with a smile, "I wonder what rating this young friend got in the trial of the Ruins Realm. Can you tell me so that I can make a bet for your great elder?"
It was apparently a greeting, but actually a test.
Fang Qian seemed to be smiling and being very polite, but in fact he had bad intentions. He asked the questions that concerned the other cultivators present the most.
Old fox!
Lu Zhou cursed inwardly, and at the same time felt a little regretful.
Why would he go to Fang Qian and pledge his own hand just to covet these spirit stones?
When everyone was about to leave, he took the initiative to stop these people.
But it's not his fault.
Because he really didn't expect that Lu Qingshan would behave like this in the end.
It's okay if you are a little better than others, but if you are too much better, you may become a thorn in other people's eyes.
The world of cultivation has always been like this, full of the law of the jungle.
"Master." Lu Qingshan's expression was very calm. He called Fang Qian very politely and said with a smile, "What's there to hide? My last evaluation in the Ruins is A-level. Please settle the bet of our great elder as soon as possible."
The monks around were all shocked when they heard this.
Although they had already guessed it, they were still extremely surprised when Lu Qingshan said it himself.
Fang Qian smiled and praised, "First-class, this is incredible. But words are not enough, I must have evidence to confirm the final result. I will naturally not doubt your Lu family, but if there is no evidence, I will definitely say that your Lu family won the championship. I am afraid that those who bet on other families to win the championship will not be convinced. I wonder if you can show us the rewards you got in the Ruins."
Fang Qian naturally believed what Lu Qingshan said. Lu Qingshan had stayed in the Ruins for such a long time before coming out. All of them already knew that Lu Qingshan's final rating must be the highest this time.
The purpose of his saying this was just to find out what kind of reward Lu Qingshan had obtained in the Xu Realm.
Is it related to his advancement to foundation building?
The reason he found was quite legitimate, because the level of the inheritance jade slips rewarded by the Ruins Realm could be seen just from the color of the jade slips.
All cultivators who received a D-level evaluation would receive a jade slip that was white in appearance.
Grade C is blue.
Grade B is blue.
As for Grade A, they are not sure yet.
This was also the criterion they used to determine which company would win.
You should know that in addition to Fang Qian's spur-of-the-moment betting, the winning family will also receive an additional quota reward in the next Xujie Trial.
The number of places for the worst performing families will be reduced accordingly.
Therefore, in every trial of the Ruins Realm, no family would hide their abilities, and everyone would try their best to strive for a high ranking.
