Chapter 150 - Mystic List, Break Through
Yang Song was hovering in the sky and watching everything that happened here.
When they left, Yang Song also left, and he left for the White Dragon Abode so that he could resume his cultivation.
…
A few days later.
"Little Xue, how are you getting along with your classmates at school today?"
Outside No. 1 Middle School, Xiang Qingxue was holding her phone while sitting at the back seat of a luxury car. Instead of answering the question, she curiously said, "Aunt Su, why don't you care about my study and practice, but instead care about this?"
Aunt Su said, "Can you teachers teach better than the president and the old guys like us?"
"The reason why the president let you transfer to the No. 1 Middle School of Tong City is not to expect you to learn something better, but to exercise your social skills."
"As the sole successor of the guild, you will definitely take over the power of our Ability Guild in the future."
"And this management guild organization is not enough to have personal strength alone."
"Why?" Xiang Qingxue interrupted, "Master Grandmas doesn't manage the guild very much, but isn't our Ability Guild still fine and all?"
Aunt Su smiled after hearing the words, "The strength of the three lords can indeed make up for many shortcomings."
"Then when that time comes, as long as I can be as strong as Grandmas, it doesn't matter if I lack social connections."
The smile on Aunt Su's face became stronger, "Okay, our Little Xue's ideals are very great!"
But having said that, Xian Qingxue also understood that she still couldn't go back despite her aunt's agreement on her ideals.
Xian Qingxue suddenly said, "Aunt Su, you haven't done anything to Uncle Wei and the others, right?"
The smile on Aunt Su's face disappeared in an instant, and she said with a chill on her face, "Those people are just ignorant of life and death, they actually dared to have bad ideas on you!"
"Oh, don't be angry, Aunt Su. Am I not fine now? Um… Uncle Wei and the others…"
Aunt Su said, "That group of people happened to take action when the abyssal demons appeared. The president suspected that there might be a collusion between them and the abyssal demons, so he let me protect your safety and investigate the matter at the same time."
"As for Wang Wei and the others, although there's no evidence that can protect them, they should've disappeared in order to fight against the abyssal demons. So maybe nothing will happen to them."
Xian Qingxue breathed a sigh of relief. She changed the subject and asked, "Aunt Su, my dad told me on the phone, let me go to worship the ancestral grave, um… what ancestral grave? Why have I never heard of it?"
"This… regarding the specific situation, I am also not very clear."
"What?" Xian Qingxue was a little surprised, "Even you, Aunt Su, don't know about it?"
Aunt Su sighed on the phone, "I'm not very clear about it, but," she paused and said, "I probably know that it seems to be related to your three grandmas."
Xian Qingxue was even more shocked when she heard this."
"Then when should I go?"
"Did the president not tell you about the specific time?"
"No, my dad just asked me to find a suitable day."
Aunt Su thought for a while, and said, "In the past few days, the abyssal demons have come to the world, and that group of rats is not at peace. For the worshipping day, you can wait a while and pick a day."
"Okay, everything can be arranged by Aunt Su."
"Speaking of which, I am here this time, in addition to protecting you and investigating the person who kidnapped you, I also have a task for you."
Xiang Qingxue wondered and asked, "What is it?"
Aunt Su said, "There are quite a lot of Martial League Academy branches in C Country, do you know why the president asked you to come to Tong City, no to be more precise, Martial City?"
Aunt Su's question was a bit unexpected by Xian Qingxue. She thought of what Aunt Su said just now, combined with the situation of Martial League Academy in recent years, and speculated, "Mystic List?"
Aunt Su nodded and answered, "That's right."
As she said, she sent a list to Xian Qingxue. On the list, there were 100 names.
"Look carefully at this list. The red names have been poached by other organizations; the green names are targeted by our guild, and the white names mean that they have not yet decided to join any organization."
Xian Qingxue carefully observed the names on the list.
The Mystic List was a list drawn up by a non-governmental organization for all kinds of mystic people including martial artists under the age of 30 in C Country.
Although it was only a non-governmental organization, this organization had drafted and updated the Mystic List every year, which had been around for decades.
After years of precipitation, it had gradually become a very authoritative list, recognized by the country's official and major organizations.
If one wanted to be on the Mystic List, one could only rely on one's own strength.
The stronger the strength, the higher the ranking on the list.
Because of the age limit, this list also represented the potential of the list to some extent.
At first glance, more than half of the names on the list were red and green names.
There were fewer people whose names were white in color and the number only reached 30.
As a young woman whose age was only nearly 18 years old, Xian Qingxue was naturally aware of this list.
Therefore, when she saw this list, Xian Qingxue knew that her previous speculation was correct.
Therefore, she immediately focused on the profile of the woman who ranked first on the list.
The name of this woman was white, which represented that she was a neutral candidate.
"At the age of 26, it has been three years since she reached the top of the Mystic List. She has been named 'White Sapphire Lord' by the world of mystic, which means that she will be a young powerhouse who will be able to become a noble person in the future!"
Xian Qingxue glanced at the "Mystic Martial Academy" on the woman's profile, and said to Aunt Su, "Aunt Su, this is the task you want to give me?!"
Aunt Su nodded and said, "White Sapphire Lord is a proud person, and she treats all the invitations of major organizations as if they are boring love letters. And she has a rather bitchy attitude towards the official mystic management organizations and guilds. Therefore, this is a very difficult task."
Xian Qingxue said with a bitter face, "Aunt Su, you have also said that this is a very difficult task that even you and the entire C Country mystic world can't handle. How can I do it? Isn't this making me awkward?"
Aunt Su smiled and said, "Of course, we know the difficulty of this matter, so we don't demand too much from you. Just do your best."
Upon hearing this, Xian Qingxue secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Then, she looked at the second name on the list and said, "Aunt Su, who is this 'Black Feifei' in the second place? Why have I never heard of her before?"
"Black Feifei? This girl is actually from a family full of assassins. She is just a girl around your age, but she's already done many assassination missions. From the news, she will be joining a super-private killer organization."
"Such a dangerous person?" Xian Qingxue muttered.
"But don't care too much, she won't dare to mess around." Aunt Su then said, "But, although White Sapphire Lord has a posture against the sky, my Little Xue is not bad at all. Therefore, even though it is important to recruit that woman, she is not our priority. The first thing you need to do is to ensure that your own practice won't fall behind."
"Understood, Aunt Su."
Xiang Qingxue rolled her eyes and said, "By the way, Aunt Su, maybe Little Xue has grown up, so the space in this car seems to have become smaller. When I reach 18 officially, I will get my driver's license… I heard that this car company released a new model some time ago…"
Aunt Su said angrily, "No money, go find your dad if you want money or a car!"
"Aww… Aunt Su…"
"No money."
"I am your…"
"No money."
"Humph! I will just ignore you, then!"
"…"
…
In the White Dragon Abode, Yang Song was still cultivating calmly. It was not known how long it took, but suddenly there was a loud rustling sound, which also shocked Xiao Laoxu, Xiao Laofei, and Xiao Lang who were staying near that.
Bang!
A burst of True Energy spread from Yang Song quickly. But as it was about to hit and destroy the internal part of the cave, Yang Song quickly controlled it with a calm face.
Yang Song at this moment opened his eyes slowly and smiled, "Finally, I have become an 8th stage Foundation Building Realm cultivator."
[A/N: Just a note here. Regarding the so-called "Middle School", it's not the one based on the UK or the US terms, but on the Chinese term instead. So in China, Middle School covers grades 7-12. Don't get confused, alright?]
