Everyone was a newbie who just entered D class, why could Xia Qingchen be an exception?

Qin Lin spoke with authority, “Because I said so. Why are you asking so much? Quickly go!”

Liu Yiyi had a look of being wronged on her face as she joined the extremely arduous willpower training.

But in truth, Xia Qingchen didn’t have it that relaxed too.

The agony of clearing a minor meridian was like a sharp knife grinding the insides of his flesh. The pain was so bad that most people wouldn’t have wanted to live.

Speaking of the pain felt, it was a hundred times worse than the willpower training.

A month passed.

Xia Qingchen slowly opened his eyes as a bright light gleamed within.

Pak!

He suddenly extended his hand and slapped at the area before him, causing a sonic boom to be produced in the air.

The might of his inner force had already exceeded the seventh radiance-level of the minor constellation stage.

In this one month, he successfully cleared the sixth major meridian and the sixtieth minor meridian. The sum of inner force within his body had exceeded what one would have at the seventh radiance-level and was approaching the eighth radiance-level.

Combining that with his powerful movement technique and martial skills, he should be able to win against an existence at the eighth radiance-level of the minor constellation stage.

Even for experts at the ninth radiance-level, he was confident that he could exchange blows with them evenly.

“Hmm, there’s about three to five days more before the start of the excursion training?” Xia Qingchen mumbled.

He didn’t really want to participate in this. Rather, he wanted to use this opportunity to head into the wilderness to cultivate the second stance of the [Four-Forms Ancient Scroll].

“Student Xia. There’s an invitation from you.” Qin Lin pushed in an invitation from the gap between the door and the floor.

There were two words ‘Rainbow Cloud’ inscribed on it.

He opened it for a look, and it turned out to be an extremely high-class banquet named ‘Rainbow Cloud’, which Zhen Zhilan had invited him to.

On the banquet, divine items from a thousand years ago would be displayed.

From what Zhen Zhilan said, there would be divine items belonging to Godking Dustless there. Hence, Xia Qingchen wished to personally examine them.

The banquet timing was set in the evening today.

Xia Qingchen kept the invitation and did a simple pack up before he left.

Just when he exited the training grounds, he suddenly heard a faint voice calling out, “Cousin Qingchen.”

He turned his gaze over and discovered that the person who called out to him was none other than Zhao Churan.

She was clad in a fiery-red shawl and stood in the wind, resembling a shy peony flower.

As beautiful as an immortal maiden, as beautiful as a portrait.

“Cousin.” Xia Qingchen nodded in response before turning away.

In his eyes, the only kin he had in the Xia Clan was Xia Yuan.

Other than Xia Yuan, he treated everyone else like the air.

This was especially so when he saw Zhao Churan trying to curry favor with him. This made it tough for him to feel any closeness to her.

Zhao Churan stood at her original location, stunned. She saw Xia Qingchen’s performance in the repeat competition and initially wanted to get closer to him. This was why she took the initiative to greet him.

Who knew that Xia Qingchen didn’t even seem to care about her.

This caused Zhao Churan to feel somewhat embarrassed and slightly angry. She could only lightly stomp her feet to vent her emotions.

“What’s going on, cousin?” A warm and gentle voice drifted over. It was Xia Qilin. He walked out of the training grounds and asked with concern.

Zhao Churan explained what had happened. Xia Qilin snorted. “He is just trash from the D class, yet he actually treats himself as someone from the upper class and put on airs?”

“Cousin, don’t be angered by such arrogant people. For people like him, they have to roll about in the bottom layer for their entire lives. He wouldn’t be of any use,” Xia Qilin spoke.

After thinking about it, most of Zhao Churan’s anger dissipated.

(True. Cousin Qingchen might have a not too bad of a talent, but he still isn’t comparable to cousin Qilin.)

That, in addition to his arrogance and conceit, his future martial path was sure to be extremely tough.

“Let’s go, the time for the Rainbow Cloud Banquet is about to begin,” Xia Qilin spoke.

Zhao Churan felt extremely happy when she heard that. The Northern Xia Manor as a martial aristocratic clan had received this highly respected invitation.

This invitation was only issued to martial aristocratic clans with great authority and power in Lone Cloud City.

So what even if cousin Qingchen was strong?

His background was ultimately still too inferior. He would never be able to see the magnificent aspects of society in Lone Cloud City.

Xia Qingchen went to a villa on the outskirts according to the location written in the invitation.

There were powerful guards stationed at the entrance. Xia Qingchen flashed his invitation and obtained entry.

When he entered, the guests there were already as many as the clouds.

Each of these guests had extraordinary statuses and was clad in luxurious clothing. They were in small groups of three to five as they drank wine and chatted leisurely.

Xia Qingchen glanced over and discovered that he wasn’t acquainted with anyone at all. Hence, he stood alone at the side and silently observed a part of the divine items from a thousand years ago that were placed on display.

For large items, there were rusty pill cauldrons; for tiny items, there were thumb-sized pieces of skin.

These items from a thousand years ago could even be retained up until now. Truthfully speaking, these were no ordinary items.

Sadly, these weren’t even worthy of a mention in Xia Qingchen’s eyes.

The old items of Godking Dustless he wanted to see had not been displayed yet.

“Haha, Brother Qilin. Long time no see.” All of a sudden, a burst of clear laughter drifted over to the door.

Xia Qingchen glanced over and discovered that he actually recognized this man.

During the second round of the repeat competition, it was this senior student that led them to ascend the flight of steps.

He was currently smiling and greeting Xia Qilin and Zhao Churan who just entered.

“Senior Tianyu.” Xia Qilin instantly went over and took the initiative to return the greeting.

Zhao Tianyu’s strength was much higher than his. He had long since broken through to the middle constellation stage and was terrifyingly powerful.

Because Li Weifeng had always held Xia Qilin in high regard, he specially introduced them.

If not, how could Zhao Tianyu even bother to befriend Xia Qilin?

Xia Qilin exchanged conventional greetings, while Zhao Churan glanced around curiously.

Suddenly, she saw a familiar figure at the corner of her eyes. She instantly felt puzzled.

“Cousin Qilin. Cousin Qingchen seemed to have come as well!” Zhao Churan pointed to Xia Qingchen.

Xia Qilin didn’t even glance over but he sneered, “Cousin, did you see wrongly? How would he have the qualifications to come here? The Master Hong he is acquainted with is nothing at all, unqualified to join this banquet, let alone Xia Qingchen.”

However, when he glanced over, he couldn’t help but be stunned.

That back view looked really familiar.

“Maybe only the back view resembles him. He isn’t qualified enough to come here.” Xia Qilin was very confident.

Talking of background, he was far above Xia Qingchen.

But Zhao Tianyu suddenly spoke, “He is Xia Qingchen. Why? Didn’t he use the invitation of your Northern Xia Manor to enter?”

He had already discovered Xia Qingchen earlier, but he couldn’t be bothered to greet him.

At this moment, Xia Qingchen also turned back and glanced at them.

Their gazes met. Undoubtedly, that was truly Xia Qingchen!

Xia Qilin felt threatened for some reason.

Not only was his younger cousin’s strength soon to catch up to him, but even his status was also far different from before.

His gaze turned cold. He walked over and asked, “How did you enter?”

Xia Qingchen frowned. He truly disliked Xia Qilin’s attitude.

They were blood cousins, but every time they met, Xia Qilin would treat it as though he met his enemy.

“Who are you to care?” Xia Qilin also wouldn’t have a good temper when faced with such an attitude.

Xia Qilin clenched his fist. He felt that right now, he really had no way to see through this cousin of his who had been weak and cowardly in the past.

“Xia Qingchen, tell me. Did you misuse my Northern Xia Manor’s name to gain entry?” Xia Qilin asked.

Up until now, he still treated Xia Qingchen as an insignificant being. He felt that Xia Qingchen had to have used his relationship with his Northern Xia Manor before he could accomplish anything.

Xia Qingchen was speechless. He didn’t even wish to speak a single sentence to this cousin of his.

“No? Then how did you enter? Don’t tell me that Master Hong let you enter? For a banquet of such level, no one would invite a ruffian like him,” Xia Qilin spoke.

He absolutely didn’t believe that Xia Qingchen entered via the proper way.

“Why must I tell you?” Xia Qilin coldly looked at him.

Since he entered, he entered. What did this have to do with him?

Even the host of the banquet didn’t ask. Who the hell was Xia Qilin to poke his nose into the businesses of others?
