The Rebirth banquet was held in a vast, Giant Palace.
Students arrived one after another.
They were all exceptionally distinguished and extraordinary.
This is the Martial Academy, where there are no weaklings. At the very least, everyone is First-rate Genius, and each one of them has been a legend, leaving behind many wonderful stories.
However, due to the conflict, the talented individuals who gathered from all directions subtly formed two factions, each standing on its own side, and disliking each other.
"I must say, the quality of this year's Rebirth is very high; there are quite a few with Super First-rate talent."
An elder, holding a list of Rebirth, looked at the unfamiliar faces in the room and nodded in approval.
Black River Martial Academy still boasts a wealth of talented individuals.
"Look, that's Cui Xianer, she's here!"
The Rebirth circle was abuzz with excitement, having witnessed the emergence of top figures among their Peers.
She was a very beautiful woman, dressed in a black dress, with a cold expression that kept people at arm's length; few dared to speak to her.
In the Aristocratic Family Camp, a senior brother of extremely high status and strength led Cui Xianer to the main seat.
Not far away, in a secluded corner where no one paid attention, Jin Tao's eyes gleamed. "What a beautiful woman."
"She is very beautiful." Chen An nodded, adding with envy in his eyes, "The key is that her talent is too high, her strength is too strong, she is definitely the number one Rebirth."
He was once dazzling, his strength quickly surpassing his Peers and catching up with the older generation, earning him the title of legend.
But once he arrived at the Martial Academy, he seemed to blend into the crowd. Among the Rebirth he knew, there were few who were worse than him.
"Very strong," said Cao Qingzhi, who was sitting near the head of the table, his face grave.
He was ranked first in his prefecture, and his life was brilliant for half his life. But when he went to the Imperial City, he was defeated by an even more dazzling genius.
This Cui Xianer was the one who caught his eye. She had also cultivated in the Imperial City and was still remarkable. She had been admitted to the National Academy ahead of schedule, but she gave it up and chose to enter the Martial Academy instead.
"Better to be a big fish in a small pond than a small fish in a big pond. The competition in the National Academy is too fierce. In the Martial Academy, she can receive the best training," said the Changping Prefecture Number Five in a low voice.
"By the way, before this woman reached the Fifth Rank, did she have her Jade Bones polished to perfection?" the Number Five on the Ranking asked curiously.
"Almost there. There wasn't enough time. Not many people can achieve a perfect score." Cao Qingzhi shook his head.
But it was already amazing enough. The Martial Dao Furnace that the other party had condensed must be more stable. Reaching the Fourth Grade in the future.
"Xue Feng is here!"
Another Rebirth exclaimed in surprise.
This year's geniuses are of exceptionally high quality; there are several prodigies whose innate talent and comprehension are close to those of Martial Bone Talent.
Cui Xianer ranked first, and the simple-looking young man who appeared at the door was the second Rebirth, who was said to have also Fifth Grade Realm and was exceptionally strong.
"By the way, I heard that at each Rebirth Banquet, talented individuals from all sides participate in sparring matches. What are the rewards?"
A Rebirth asked a senior student a question.
"Resources, Fifth Rank True Qi Realm, Initial Realm cultivation, Mid-to-late stage begin to External Gathering Qi from heaven and earth. In the Fifth Rank Middle Stage, there are two theories: one Earth Water Fire Wind, the other is that the Qi of the Five Elements is best."
"However, based on the experience of predecessors, both methods are acceptable, and the power of the fused True Qi is about the same. Therefore, our Martial Academy students all refer to the first method of Gathering Qi, gathering four types of qi to forge the middle stage three levels."
"Therefore, this reward consists of the four External Qi resources: Earth Water Fire Wind. This will ensure you have enough of these resources in the mid-game and allow for rapid improvement."
"Junior brother, do you remember that these four elements are located on the Back Mountain of the Martial Academy?" a Rebirth asked doubtfully.
"There are some, but there are just too many people. There are nearly two hundred Rebirth, plus some senior students who are still in the Fifth Rank Middle Stage. The resources are not enough."
That senior student explained.
This External Qi is very powerful and requires a specific geological formation over a long period of time to accumulate; it is not inexhaustible.
Often, many Rebirth find themselves unable to gather External Qi after reaching the third stage of the True Qi Realm and need to wait for the four types of energy to form.
"How long will it take?" Rebirth asked.
The senior replied that if all goes well, it would take a year and a half, or at most four or five years.
Therefore, the Rebirth banquet is very important. As long as you make it into the top ten, you can directly obtain the four elements and prepare the necessary resources for the future without wasting extra time.
"Ah! I'm only Sixth Grade genius," a genius lamented.
The senior student comforted him, "Don't be nervous. The Rebirth's abilities vary greatly. They will be compared separately, with Sixth Grade competing against Sixth Grade, Fifth Rank against Fifth Rank students. The Top Five each group will be selected."
"Look, the third monster has arrived."
At that moment, another exclamation rang out.
Jiang Ping and Chen Qingyan arrived together.
As soon as it appeared, it attracted a lot of attention and caused quite a commotion.
"Wow! A perfect couple." Some people, prioritizing looks, were the first to rate the two's appearances. "Hmm, very handsome, very beautiful, and a perfect match."
Some people had a cold, scrutinizing gaze, full of malice:
"This person is highly talented, but has already incurred the wrath of our Aristocratic Family Camp. This karmic Causality must be resolved, and this Mud Leg's future must be cut short."
"Huh? The two of them are standing very close. I heard they're neighbors, meeting secretly every day, inseparable. Brother Wang, no wonder she doesn't fancy you; you're already taken."
A young man nudged his friend beside him and joked.
The friend surnamed Wang stared at Chen Qingyan, his eyes turning cold as if recalling something unpleasant.
At the entrance.
Jiang Ping surveyed the scene Giant Palace and discovered that the academy's Martial Artists were almost divided into two factions; it seemed that no one was alone, and they were all sticking together.
"What's there to be afraid of? I'm enough to lead one faction by myself!"
He sensed the hostility from the Aristocratic Family Camp and the judgmental gazes of the other faction.
In the end, I decided to sit in the very corner, far away from everyone else.
However, before he could even sit down, his senior brother led him to the front.
"Although they're not in my faction, I know some of them; not everyone harbors ill intentions."
Lusheng led Jiang Ping to the main seat.
"This is Senior Sister Liu Haitang, you should have met her before. That's Xue Feng, your equal."
Jiang Ping nodded to the two men in greeting.
Next, Lusheng introduced him to two senior brothers and sisters, both of whom were exceptional individuals with Super First-rate talent.
"Junior brother, if you get into trouble at the Martial Academy, just mention your senior sister's name, and I'll back you up." A pretty young woman laughed heartily, somewhat unconventional, and even hoped that Jiang Ping would invite her for a drink.
"Since you're here, sit down. What happened before won't happen again. You can still receive the best training. Don't be too arrogant. There are people with the same talent as you," a man not on the introduction list suddenly said.
Lusheng frowned, and the pretty senior sister immediately couldn't help but say, "Shut up, Ma Ran, you have no right to speak here."
"I'm telling the truth. The Dangerous Land will open in two years, and the Martial Academies of the three provinces will compete for the Celestial Resources. Without our protection, this guy will be unable to move an inch and won't even get a sip of the soup." Ma Ran sneered.
The pretty senior sister froze for a moment.
"Don't argue, don't let outsiders ruin the harmony," Tang Pengfei said from the side.
Lusheng frowned even more deeply.
Jiang Ping had already decided to leave. He turned his head, paused for a moment, and looked at the slender figure in the corner where he had just been sitting.
Lusheng followed his gaze, then his expression turned strange. "To be honest, you two are really destined for each other."
One refused to join the Poor Family Camp, while the other was ostracized by the Aristocratic Factions.
