Chapter 318 : The Prodigies Lists
Back to the topic at hand.
Today, the top families from all over the world arrived in Jingzhong City for the highly anticipated meeting about the Zerg.
And the most important thing that made all of these families so restless was that the family head of the Xu family would be present at the meeting, allowing them to see who he was.
This alone is enough to cause them to leave everything and make their way here, but it also shows how much everyone wants to know who the family head is.
Then, they will decide whether to entrust their trust to Xu Qianghua or not.
So their arrival brought with it a wave of powerful auras that could not be ignored. Each family had sent their key representatives and, in many cases, their most promising younger generation members.
These were the prodigies who had been training for years, prepared to shoulder their clans' future, and were here to challenge other talents to see who was better.
This type of competition is not dangerous. Instead, it is an important event that can show the true qualities of these young prodigies. No matter how many victories you achieve, one failure can destroy everything.
But then comes the real test, the test where the young prodigy can handle this defeat; if they can, they will have a bright future ahead, but if they cannot cope with the loss, there is not much hope for them.
Xu Qianghua knew this, which is why he had already prepared for a small tournament for these young prodigies with some pretty good rewards, which even the high-level cultivators might want to compete for.
However, this was only a side note, and the main focus was still the meeting, and after the meeting was finished, Xu Qianghua would host this tournament.
But, right now, his priority was the meeting, which would happen after everyone came and settled down for a day or two before starting.
He did this to see if their arrival could boost the struggling economy a bit more and if they had any rare items he might want to buy.
And he was not the only one having these thoughts, as most of the family heads who had read novels knew that this was a good place for them to pick up leaks.
So, everyone who had settled down a bit decided to split up and see if Lady Luck was in their favor.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Meanwhile, inside the Xu family's residence, the clan members were all looking forward to meeting new people.
Most wanted to challenge someone from other families to see how they compared to them.
And even more excited were the Xu family prodigies you see, Xu Qianghua had created three different lists of prodigies, which are:
The Heavenly Dragon List.
The Earthly Dragon List.
The Human Dragon List.
These three lists divide the prodigies into categories depending on their talent, luck, and hard work. Everyone on these lists has earned their ranks by defeating all the other clan members with the same starting lines.
This is why no one questions these lists, as all of them understand that this is necessary. The clan's resources are not unlimited and need to be distributed responsibly and reasonably.
So, the Xu family had a fair and reasonable way of deciding who should get the resources and who should not.
As for the rewards, it varied depending on the list you were on, and the higher the list, the greater the benefits.
Of course, the lower your ranking, the fewer resources you get, but even these resources are something that most of the prodigies from a high-level and even some top-level families receive.
From this, you can see the gap in resources, which in itself is a major point, as with enough resources, the only thing that a cultivator needs is good talent, which most of them do.
Meanwhile in the teleportation hall.
Chen Family from the Eastern Continent arrived. Chen Zemin and his sisters led the group, and his calm and dignified demeanor made it clear why he was respected across the continent.
Alongside him was his younger sister, Chen Min, whose sharp mind had elevated their business dealings to new heights. With them was Chen Mei, the youngest of the three siblings and a talented cultivator who specialized in alchemy.
Behind them, a group of talented youths followed, all of whom had been training intensely for the last decade. Each of them exuded confidence and power, wearing the family's signature dark green robes embroidered with glowing runic symbols.
Their arrival caused a stir among the gathered crowds, and people whispered excitedly about the famous Chen Family.
"Is that the Chen Family from the Eastern Continent?"
"Wow, they look amazing!"
"I heard they have the strongest family head in the Eastern Continent."
Chen Zemin's group soon reached the registration desk, and he flashed his credentials to the attendant. "We are from the Eastern Continent, the Chen Family.
The attendant who received them did not show any abnormalities; this is because she, along with everyone who works at key locations, is part of the Xu family.
So many of them do not share the same views as the others, along with the Chen family having already been to this city multiple times; it could be said that Chen Zemin did not even need to show his ID, and the receptionist would recognize him.
However, he did not do that as he knew this was an important step to keep the city safe; if he got special treatment, other top families would not view this positively.
After all, the whole point of this gathering was to strengthen the relations between the various powers and form an alliance.
"Thank you for registering. Please follow the path on the left to get to the guest residences, and an attendant will guide you."
"Thank you," Chen Zemin said politely, his face calm and unreadable.
The rest of his family followed suit, keeping their expressions neutral. They knew how important it was to make a good impression on their first day here.
