C946 Shen Qing's Decision
On the other hand, Shen Qing spent the entire night stroking the Soul-Sealing Spear.
Shen Qing did not explain her thoughts to Chu Yan.
But Chu Yan understood, Shen Qing was more eager to join the main branch than everyone else.
It was just like when you were young, your parents would always tell you that you were not as good as the child next door.
When you finally get the chance to compete with this kid.
That kind of excitement and anticipation was definitely not something an ordinary person could imagine.
What Shen Qing had to face was a feeling that was even stronger than this.
Receiving the approval of the main branch and returning to the main branch — This was what Shen Qing's father had told her every day since she was young.
Today, she was standing on the main branch of the land.
What she had to face would also be the test that would determine the expectations of the generations of her branch.
There were already clansmen of the main branch waiting outside the courtyard.
When Chu Yan and the rest walked out, the clan member immediately led them to the main testing grounds, a corner of the training grounds.
Last night, Chu Yan had already found out the contents of today's exam from Shen Qing.
The purpose of the examination is to test Shen Qing's current strength.
Since that was the case, the assessment method would naturally be simple and direct.
The main branch will send out ten clansmen who have similar cultivation realms as Shen Qing to fight with each other in a battle of attrition.
These ten clansmen of the main branch were naturally ranked according to their strength, from the weakest to the strongest.
Once the previous person was in Shen Qing's hands, the next person would immediately follow suit.
After that, the main branch would evaluate Shen Qing's performance during the period of her performance and how far she could go.
If the requirements were met, Shen Qing would naturally be accepted by the main branch.
If she showed potential enough to attract attention, it was even possible that the main branch would break down and allow her branch to return.
It was because of this reason that when he came to the training grounds, Shen Yunshan was so excited that his face turned red.
When Chu Yan arrived at the training grounds, he looked around immediately.
This was the Shen family's internal test, so naturally there wouldn't be many people watching.
In the martial arts practice field, there were only a total of thirty people.
The middle-aged man sitting in the middle emitted an imposing manner.
From the opponent's signature sword-like eyebrows, Chu Yan could tell that he was the Patriarch Shen Muhe that Shen Qing had spoken of.
The white-bearded old man who led Chu Yan and the others to the house yesterday was also in the training grounds.
The place he sat was very close to Shen Muhe.
Last night, Chu Yan had already found out from Shen Qing that he was one of the elders in Patriarch Shen Branch, Shen Song.
In terms of seniority, Shen Song was Shen Muhe's uncle.
Seeing the legendary Clan Leader Shen Muhe, Shen Yunshan's face was immediately filled with modesty and respect. His waist was bent to the point that it was almost perpendicular to his legs.
Chu Yan even suspected that if the other party gave him a look now, Shen Yunshan would immediately rush over and kneel on the ground.
The people of Patriarch Shen Branch, with Shen Muhe as their leader, sat on the other side of the stage.
Chu Yan, Shen Qing and Shen Yunshan sat opposite to them on the other side.
He had already said what he needed to say last night, so he didn't have any more small talk at the moment.
But Chu Yan noticed that when he came here, the Shen Family looked at him with eyes filled with ill intent.
Naturally.
Yesterday, the Shen family wanted to show their might to Shen Qing.
But in the end, he was slapped hard by Chu Yan.
It would be weird if the Shen Family could give Chu Yan a good look.
"I've already told you the rules yesterday. If you're ready, then go up on the stage." On the other side of the stage, Shen Muhe said.
Shen Qing closed her eyes and pondered for a moment. With the Soul-Sealing Spear in hand, she walked onto the stage.
The group of Shen Family on the opposite side were all sizing up Shen Qing with different gazes.
There were doubts, surprise, scrutiny, and disdain.
Most of them were seeing a genius with a Purgatory Statue in this branch for the first time today.
Shen Muhe looked deeply at Shen Qing, and said: "Shen Zi Xiong."
"Here!"
Amongst the crowd, a nearly bald Shen Family answered.
Shen Family glanced at the middle-aged man's balding head, but if one were to carefully look at him, he would see that his face was relatively younger, at most around thirty years of age.
For a moment, Chu Yan felt sympathy for him.
At such a young age, his hair was gone.
Moreover, he was a cultivator.
"You go first." Shen Muhe said.
"Yes sir!" Shen Zixiong answered loudly.
"It's about to begin!" Below the stage, Shen Yunshan tensed up, his hands gripping his knees tightly.
But just then, Shen Qing who was on the stage spoke out.
"Wait a moment."
"What's wrong?" Shen Muhe frowned, "Didn't you understand everything that you said yesterday?
Or was it — "
Shen Muhe's mouth revealed a trace of ridicule: "Are you afraid?"
"What does Eldest Miss want to do?" Shen Yunshan quivered as he mumbled to himself.
He looked at Shen Qing who was on the stage, then turned to look at Chu Yan.
He felt that Chu Yan would know something.
Or perhaps, he felt that Chu Yan bewitched Shen Qing with something last night.
On the stage, Shen Qing raised her head, one by one, her gaze swept across the group of Patriarch Shen Branch clansmen, and finally stopped on Shen Muhe's body.
"I want to fight ten."
In the next moment, Shen Qing said these five words.
Below the stage, Chu Yan's mouth raised slightly.
As for the others, all of them had the expression of having seen a ghost in broad daylight.
They looked at each other, as if asking the others to confirm if they had misheard.
Shen Yunshan's reaction was the most intense.
He staggered and almost fell down.
After stabilizing himself with great difficulty, he couldn't help but exclaim out loud, "Miss, you … you better stop messing around!"
"I'm not messing around." Shen Qing's gaze turned indifferent, as she continued to gaze at Shen Muhe, "I want all ten of them to come at me together."
This time, everyone present heard it clearly.
What Shen Qing meant was that she didn't want to fight in a revolving battle, but wanted the ten main supporters to come at once.
She wanted a pair of ten.
In an instant, Shen Family's expression became exceptionally marvelous.
"Too arrogant!"
"Who does she think she is!"
"It's just a branch, he's simply a frog in a well!"
"Since she requests it like that, then we shall do as she says."
"He's probably being held in high esteem in his branch all day, so he thinks that his strength can reach the heavens!"
"Hmph, wasn't it just entering the Shattered Star Pavilion and becoming a sect's disciple? What's so special about that."
"No matter how strong the sect disciples are, do you really think you can win one against ten?"
The clansmen of the Patriarch Shen Branch were instantly as if they had exploded.
In fact, there were even some extremely nasty words that popped out at this moment. He didn't bother to conceal his sarcasm at Shen Qing and thought that she was overestimating herself.
"How … How did this happen …"
Below the stage, Shen Yunshan was trembling with a pale look on his face.
From yesterday to today, he made use of this opportunity to harass Shen Qing.
In the end, such an accident still happened.
Turning his head to look at Chu Yan, who was not the least bit surprised, Shen Yunshan immediately became angry. Evil emerged from the side of his heart, and with a step forward, he looked down at Chu Yan, and bellowed: "What did you say to my Young Miss!"
