Phoenix family school field, wind and sunshine, people gather together.
The courtyard was surrounded by the Phoenix familys guards with solemn expressions. On the high platform, ten elderly men sat silently in their chairs, not saying a word.
On the opposite side of the platform, there is a black stone pillar about half a persons height. On top of the pillar lies a transparent crystal ball, roughly the size of a washbasin.
The disciples of the Feng family stood not far away, whispering to each other, and from time to time, the three words "Feng You Yue" could be heard drifting through the crowd.
"Here!" someone shouted loudly, and everyone turned to look at the school entrance.
In the golden glow, a girl walked slowly. She wore a simple red dress with no decorations on it, only tied with a red belt around her waist, clean and refreshing. Outside the red dress, she wore a red embroidered silk cloak, with a pair of red satin boots on her feet. The whole person seemed like a flame, dazzling to the eye.
She walked through the layers of misty light and appeared before everyone, and finally, people saw her face clearly.
Her eyebrows are like distant mountains, with a gentle beauty and a hint of heroism. A pair of scissors-like beautiful eyes slightly raised, with a lazy smile at the bottom. Under the small jade nose, the vermilion lips are slightly raised, seeming to smile but not quite, evoking a touch of charm.
Her pace was neither fast nor slow, and wherever her beautiful eyes looked, they were tinged with a hint of coldness and sharpness. That one body of elegance shook the hearts of all!
Is this really Miss Feng, the sixth young lady of the Feng family?
Is this still that stupid waste?
Is she really Feng You Yue?!
Everyone was immersed in the girls elegance, her temperament, they had only seen it on Master Feng Qing before! The same domineering aura, the same disdain for all living things!
The ten elders sitting in the stands all cast their eyes on Feng Youyue, with complex gazes. At this time, they saw Feng Cang following beside Feng Youyue and stood up together.
"Nice to meet the master of the house!"
The disciples of the Feng family also followed suit and bowed down, their voices shaking the sky, "Greetings, Master!"
"Everyone, rise!" Feng Qings voice was thick and resonant, echoing in all directions. With a wave of his sleeve, he transformed into a flowing light and appeared on the viewing platform in an instant, taking his seat at the head position. Feng Qingyan followed closely behind him, standing beside her father.
"Ladies and gentlemen, today is the day of my granddaughter Feng Youyues assessment. I suppose everyone is already aware!" Feng Cangs voice slowly echoed in the quiet school grounds.
"This times Five-Year Grand Competition is extraordinary in significance. Youve finally been able to cultivate, Im greatly relieved! However, this assessment will still uphold the principles of fairness and justice! I hope the ten elders and everyone will supervise it! According to procedure, the assessment will be divided into two stages. Youyue, begin!"
Below the platform, Feng Youyue smiled faintly and nodded. The Seventh Elder in charge of the assessment leaped down from the platform, his sleeve fluttering as he led Feng Youyue towards the stone pillar.
"This is a Xuanjing Energy Orb, which can detect the attributes and energy values of cultivators." The Seventh Elder briefly introduced it to Feng Youyue.
Feng Youyue was somewhat curious, she measured the crystal ball and raised an eyebrow to ask, "How is it used?"
"Place both hands on the crystal ball."
Feng Youyues eyes were clear and resolute, without any hesitation, she stretched out both hands and gently placed them on the sphere.
"Hey, do you think Sixth Miss can pass the first round?"
"Ive seen enough! How long has she been practicing? Its already impressive that she can reach the Xuan Shi stage."
"Thats not necessarily true. Yesterday, Fu Su used a thousand Xuan crystals to place a bet. If she didnt have some real skills, would she dare play with such high stakes?"
"Hmph! All bark and no bite! If you ask me, this times Five-Year Grand Competition will still have to pin its hopes on Miss Yuexue and Feng Wuya. The others arent even worth watching!"
"Its not necessarily so! Young Master Da will return after half a month of training, and I heard he has also entered the 7th rank of Xuan Shi! In my opinion, this time the Feng family is almost certain to win. However, Sixth Miss..."
"Alas! If you ask me, Sixth Miss would be better off not passing the assessment! Whats the point of entering the Five Years Grand Comparison anyway? Itll just end in embarrassment!"
"Really! Huh? Why is it still quiet? The Crystal Energy Ball wont be broken, will it?"
Feng Youyue stood in front of the energy sphere, her hands firmly stuck to its surface. Time slowly passed by, and everyone held their breath, staring at the energy sphere, waiting for its reaction.
However, after several long breaths had passed, the energy ball still did not change.
"Whats going on?" Feng Qings heart was filled with worry, his big hands tightly grasping the armrests of the chair, his eyebrows furrowed. Feng Qingyan also had a worried look, her beautiful sword-like eyebrows twisted together.
Ten elders silently exchanged glances with each other, their expressions varied.
"Hmph! The energy sphere didnt react at all, which means Feng Youyue doesnt have any mystical powers!" Feng Qing sneered and looked at Feng Cang with a pleased expression, "Master of the house, you should give up now? Feng Youyue isnt qualified to participate in the Five-Year Grand Competition!"
"Indeed. Feng Youyue has no spiritual power, cant cultivate, useless... Hehe." Feng Ling strokes his whiskers, smiling sinisterly.
Feng Cangs face changed, his sharp eyes scanned Feng Qing and Feng Ling, his fists clenched with a cracking sound.
The energy sphere still has no movement, and the Feng family disciples start to get restless. Several elders also sighed with regret, shaking their heads in disappointment.
Just then, the Second Elder, who had been silent all along, suddenly sat up straight and shouted, "Look quickly!"
Everyone followed his line of sight and looked over together.
On the stone pillar, a transparent Xuanjing energy sphere has appeared!
A faint pink glow flashed in the energy sphere, like a pale pink lightning. Immediately afterwards, the color gradually deepened and turned into a fiery red!
"Its a Fire attribute! The same Fire attribute as the master of the house!" The Seventh Elder shouted.
However, the color of the energy ball continued to change. It turned from bright red to deep red, then to dark brown, and finally became a profound black!
"This is......" The seven elders were shocked and uncertain, "Black? Could it be a dark attribute?"
"No! This is still a fire attribute!" The Second Elder spoke decisively, with excitement flickering in his eyes.
"What? How can there be black fire properties?"
"Who says flames cant be black?" The Second Elder spoke calmly, "As far as I know, fire attributes are divided into three levels. Ordinary level is red, and the households fire attribute is of this kind. Mid-level fire attributes are obtained by devouring foreign fires, with varying colors. And then theres another, also the highest level, Chaotic Fire Attribute! This fire is born from heaven and earth, only one in ten thousand people with a special physique will possess the Chaotic Fire Attribute! Its power is domineering to the extreme, the Emperor of Fire! And the color of Chaotic Fire is black!"
As they spoke, the two elders stood up from their chairs and strode hastily towards Feng Youyue. His face was filled with excitement, his footsteps disorderly and urgent. He was an alchemist, so he was naturally more sensitive to fire seeds than ordinary people. Chaotic Fire - he had only read about it in books!
Two elders stepped forward and arrived beside Feng You Yue, staring excitedly at the energy sphere, nodding their heads tremulously.
"Its true! It really is the Chaotic Flame attribute! The one and only Chaotic Flame! Yougui, I didnt expect you to have such a fate!"
The two old mens voices were not small, and everyone in the entire schoolyard heard them clearly, instantly boiling over.
"Misty grass! How overpowered is this Chaos Flame attribute?"
"Emperor of Fire, Miss Six has picked up a treasure?"
"Didnt they say her physique cant cultivate? How come she still has the attribute of Chaos Fire? Sixth Miss is going to defy the heavens!"
On the platform, everyone heard the second elders explanation and had different expressions. Especially Feng Jing and Feng Ling, their faces turned black like a pot bottom.
Damn it! How could Feng Youyue be a Chaotic Fire attribute?
Isnt she trash?
"Haha! Alright! Ah, great! My Youyue is indeed a blessed person with the Chaotic Fire attribute!" Feng Qings face lit up with joy, his eyes shining brightly, and even his whiskers were curled up in delight.
Feng Jings face turned dark, his eyes dim. Suddenly, he sneered, "Its just a peculiar attribute, after all! The actual strength is still unknown! Dont just have a treasure on your body and not know its value!"
As soon as the words fell, someone in the stands below let out a cry of surprise once again.
"Look! The Xuanli light has changed!"
Feng Qing and others heard this and quickly looked away, their eyes all shrinking back!
Xuanjing energy sphere, dyed black by the chaotic fire attribute. In this ink blackness, a golden light pillar slowly rises from the lower end of the energy sphere. Each time the light pillar rises one level, it represents a grade!
Everyones eyes widened and stared fixedly at the energy ball!
Xuān shì yī jiē... Xuān shì èr jiē... Xuān shì sān jiē...
The light pillars rising speed was extremely slow, and Jin Mang stopped at the third stage.
"Xuan Shi third stage? So formidable just after starting cultivation?"
"Although Im not qualified to enter the Five Years Grand Competition, but just after cultivating, Ive already become a Xuan Shi of the third stage, which is pretty good."
"Right! With time, the Feng family will definitely have another genius!"
The two elders stared at the energy sphere, sighed deeply upon seeing this, and looked at Feng You Yue with relief.
"Although youre not qualified to enter the Five-Year Grand Competition, this little girl of yours is quite impressive."
Phoenix Yuemeng smiled and glanced at him. The Second Elders long eyebrows were puzzled, and suddenly the energy ball burst out with golden light again! The golden light column actually started to climb upwards like a snail once more!
He stared with wide eyes, his trembling fingers pointing at the energy ball, breathing rapidly.
Xuān shì sì jiē... Xuān shì wǔ jiē...
"Fog Grass! Xuan Shis fifth stage, you demon!"
"Is she still allowed to live? How long has she been practicing?"
"Is this still Miss Six? Shes become a monkey?"
In the midst of the crowds incredulous gasps, the light pillar slowly rose and finally stopped at the sixth stage of Xuan Shi!
Xuān shì liù jiē! Huǒ shǔ xuān shì liù jiē!
Translation: Mystic Sixth Rank! Fire Attribute Mystic Sixth Rank!
The noisy schoolyard suddenly became silent, and Feng Jing and Feng Lings faces turned black as the bottom of a pot! Just now they said that others were useless, arent they slapping themselves in the face now? Slap slap!
A gentle breeze blew and the flag rustled, everyones eyes widened, immersed in this scene, disbelieving.
The infamous idiot of Wanlan Country has actually become a six-stage Xuan Shi genius girl!
You should know that Feng Yuxues innate talent is only at the 7th level of Xuan Shi, and she has been cultivating for a whole ten years!
Feng Youyue actually jumped to the sixth rank of Xuan Shi in just a few days!
Misty grass! Is the sixth rank of Xuan Shi just a big cabbage? Can you get one by casually poking around?
Feng Youyue withdrew her hands, gazing at the expressions of the crowd, and smiled slightly. The Chaotic Spirit Fruit of the Chaotic Space not only had the effect of improving ones physique when consumed for the first time, but also increased ten years worth of cultivation. Otherwise, how could she possibly leap to the sixth rank of Xuan Shi in just a few days?
Of course, she wouldnt say these things to anyone, even Feng Qing.
This is her secret and also her trump card.
Feng You Yue jumped down from the stone pillar and walked towards the high platform.
"Grandfather, several elders. The assessment is over, please have a few of you review it."
"Good! Good!" Feng Qing woke up from his shock, patted his thigh with a big palm, and nodded excitedly. Although he had long known that his granddaughter was a sixth-level Xuan Shi, seeing it with his own eyes was another feeling altogether.
"Has everyone seen it clearly? Fire attribute Xuan Shi sixth rank, how do you all think?" He stroked his beard and asked with a smile.
Several elders looked at each other and nodded immediately.
"First level assessment, passed!"
"Next is the second round! Practical assessment!"
Feng Youyue smiled confidently and said, "Actual combat? In her past life, the thing she did most was kill people! When it comes to actual combat, she claimed to be second, and indeed, no one dared to claim first!"
She took a step towards the martial arts platform and suddenly stopped in her tracks, looking up at the sky with a shocked expression...
A terrifying aura of profound energy suddenly appeared, pressing down on everyone with an overwhelming force. The majestic pressure caused everyones face to turn pale, and even Feng Qing, a sixth-level Grandmaster, felt his heart tremble!
Immediately afterwards, a faint and eerie voice rose up, echoing all around, seemingly illusory.
"Chaos Flame Attribute? This little guy is quite interesting..."
