Fantasy Talent Tree: Cultivation For 20 Years In Prison

Chapter 14: Hunyuan Sect, Saint Assessment

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Hunyuan Sect, in the Hunyuan Hall.

The sect master of the Hunyuan Sect, many elders, and hall masters were gathered together.

In the main hall, Yu Chen stood upright in the center, neither servile nor overbearing.

Ning Yan sized up the suspicious elders around them and felt rather nervous as she hid behind Yu Chen.

“Ahem, you said you’re Chen Yu, the disciple of the Saintess Gongsun Yue?”

An elder spoke.

Yu Chen nodded and said, “That’s right. I was indeed Master’s disciple when she was traveling.”

“This is my younger sister, Chen Yan. She was also Master’s disciple.”

“We came back this time because we heard that Master was framed and imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison. We decided to come back and seek justice.”

At this point, the expression of an elder in the corner changed slightly.

Fortunately, everyone’s attention was focused on Yu Chen, so no one was paying attention to him.

The elder beside the Sect Master said again, “The matter regarding the Saintess Gongsun Yue was decided by our Sect’s Grand Elder. It’s not something you can be suspicious about.”

“Besides, if you wish to seek justice, you need to acknowledge your ancestors first.”

Yu Chen stayed completely calm as he said, “How should I do that?”

The elder said, “Of course it’s by testing your cultivation of the Primordial Chaos Art!”

…

Primordial Chaos Art was a cultivation technique specially made for battle.

Battle was naturally the most suitable way to test one’s proficiency on the Primordial Chaos Art.

In the arena, Yu Chen looked at the elder opposite him and cupped his hands. “I’m Chen Yu. May I know your name?”

The red-robed elder opposite him narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice, “I’m Hu Kunlong, an outer sect elder, a second realm level nine cultivator!”

In the Hunyuan Sect, there were many different kinds of elders.

There was also a huge difference in the strength of the elders.

Apart from distinguishing the disciples, the ranks of the outer sect, inner sect, and core were also used to distinguish the position of an elder.

The so-called outer sect elders were the elders who managed the outer sect affairs.

The same went for the inner sect and core elders.

Outer sect elders were those who were old but had not broken through to the third realm.

Yu Chen smiled calmly. “I’m sorry, but please allow me to call you little friend.”

With that, a terrifying spiritual energy fluctuation suddenly broke out of his body and crushed towards Hu Kunlong like a tide.

In an instant, Hu Kunlong felt as if he was in a storm.

Under the pressure of Yu Chen’s spiritual power, his eyes suddenly widened, and he hurriedly circulated his spiritual power to resist Yu Chen’s pressure.

Hu Kunlong’s Talent Tree also appeared around him with the stimulation of his spiritual power.

Nineteen mysterious streaks of starlight, arranged in a chevron.

It could be seen that this person did not even have a middle-grade talent.

Crack ~

The ground beneath Yu Chen’s feet cracked slightly, and a terrifying pressure spread out from his body.

This situation shocked the elders who were watching the battle.

“What? Second realm level ten!”

“Although I don’t know about the Talent Tree, this terrifying pressure…”

“This kid looks to be less than twenty years old, but he has such a cultivation level? What kind of talent is this?!”

“Saintess Gongsun Yue really took in a good disciple.”

“Unfortunately, Gongsun Yue has already been imprisoned.”

In the cultivation world, the more accomplished people are ranked higher.

Yu Chen was at second realm level ten, while Elder Hu Kunlong was at second realm level nine.

Although there was a huge difference in age, according to the rules, the other party should indeed call Yu Chen senior.

Hu Kunlong’s expression changed and he immediately said, “This competition is only to test fellow Daoist’s Primordial Chaos Art. It’s not a real battle.”

“Fellow Daoist, shall we stop here?”

As their cultivation was basically on a similar level, they should address each other as fellow Daoists.

That, too, was the rule.

Yu Chen did not mind. After all, he still had to give him some face.

Otherwise, if he was forced into a corner, Yu Chen would not be able to control his strength in the end and injure this old fellow.

Therefore, after learning of Yu Chen’s powerful strength, Hu Kunlong began to test Yu Chen.

The two of them exchanged moves using the Primordial Chaos Art.

The transformation from spiritual power cultivation to physical cultivation, and then from physical cultivation to spiritual power cultivation.

Lastly, there was the Battle Spirit Technique.

The result shocked everyone.

Logically speaking, Elder Hu Kunlong had been exposed to the Primordial Chaos Art for a longer time and should be more proficient in it.

But looking at Yu Chen, he was no worse than Elder Hu Kunlong.

“It’s the sect’s fortune that such a genius is willing to return to the sect.”

“That’s right. Unfortunately, he already has a master. Otherwise, I…”

“Oh? The Law Enforcement Elder actually intends to take in a disciple? What do you think of my brat?”

The Law Enforcement Elder was the highest-level elder.

Their cultivation level was usually at the beginning of the fourth realm. Even the Saint had to behave himself when he saw him.

After the competition ended, Yu Chen smiled and cupped his hands at Hu Kunlong. “Elder, I must have offended you quite a bit just now, but please take care of me in the future.”

As he spoke, Yu Chen emphasized the words ‘take care of me’.

According to the memories Gongsun Yue had shared with Yu Chen, Hu Kunlong was the elder who had given the hidden weapon to Gongsun Yue.

Hu Kunlong had colluded with Wang Yun to frame Gongsun Yue, proving that he was Wang Yun’s man.

Therefore, Yu Chen secretly remembered this matter.

Being stared at by Yu Chen, Hu Kunlong also coughed dryly. “Ahem… This… Of course, of course…”

With that, Hu Kunlong turned around and walked down the arena.

Seeing that the matter was over, the elders who were watching the battle looked towards the sect master.

The sect master of the Hunyuan Sect, Feng Changchun, was a mighty figure in the sixth realm.

At this moment, Feng Changchun also looked at Yu Chen with a happy expression and said, “Alright, since you have mastered the basics of the Primordial Chaos Art, you will be a member of my Hunyuan Sect from today onwards.”

“In the light of your identity, I’ll let you become a true disciple of the Hunyuan Sect. You can listen to the lectures of various hall masters. How about that?”

The Hall Master was a position above the elders of the Hunyuan Sect.

The Hunyuan Sect had a total of 32 halls. Each hall was in charge of different matters.

32 halls also represented 32 different abilities.

There are different kinds of abilities, such as alchemy, weapon refinement, talisman techniques, spells, array formations, sword techniques, and so on. Each of them belonged to one of the 32 halls.

32 halls, 30 hall masters, and 64 deputy hall masters.

Usually, the deputy hall master would give the Dao lecture to the core disciples of the Hunyuan Sect.

Yu Chen did not object. Instead, he said, “Thank you, Sect Master. Then my junior sister…”

At this moment, everyone took notice of Ning Yan who was beside Yu Chen.

It was mainly because this person was too inconspicuous. Moreover, Yu Chen had given them too much of a shock, causing them to almost forget about Ning Yan.

Ning Yan swallowed her saliva and felt the gazes of the seniors around her. She could not help but stand straight at the attention. It was as if she was being judged.

Feng Changchun smiled. “Since she’s a first realm level ten cultivator, let her be a core disciple first.”

“We can talk about advancing to a true disciple when she breaks through to the second realm.”

Originally, with the sect master’s announcement, the matter should be settled.

However, Yu Chen did not come here to be a true disciple.

Yu Chen immediately asked, “Sect Master, is the battle for the Immortal about to begin?”

As soon as he said this, everyone thought:

“That’s right. Although Yu Chen is still young, he has the strength to become a Saint.”

“However… isn’t it inappropriate to appoint him as the Saint as soon as he returns to the sect?”

Yu Chen said calmly, “Sect Master, I want to take the assessment to be a Saint.”

There was an assessment one must take in order to be a Saint.

If one passed, they would become a Saint.

The Saints and Saintesses of the Hunyuan Sect were only appointed as Saints and Saintesses after passing the assessment.

Yu Chen believed that with his strength, it would be easy for him to become a Saint.

Most importantly, he could not let Wang Yun become the Immortal.
