In the meeting hall of the Qian Family, a man seated on a throne-like chair and four elders as subordinate, sipping their teas as they think about how they might dismiss the young woman"s request who was standing at the centre.The young woman was the daughter of the man who is sitting on the throne-like seat; she was also Xiao Yang"s mother. If it wasn"t for the common knowledge of elemental powers increases the lifespan of a human. Everyone would think it was impossible as everyone in the hall looked awfully younger than their actual age. The oldest person among them was a 126 years old elder, but he looked like he was only in his early 60s, and he only processes a single D-Cla.s.s Element.
"Patriarch, the Elemental Will Strengthening pills should be given to the most talented youngsters, as they have the likeliest chance of becoming a dual element mage." One of the elders shouted.
"That"s right; our clan can only afford four pills each year. We cannot waste it on a trash without any talents" Said another elder, who continued by saying, "Besides his surname is Chen, not our Qian".
Before another elder was about to speak, the patriarch waved his hand to gesture them to stop. He gave her daughter another look before he went on to say, "Qian Xian, you know that our clan is in desperate need for talent for this year"s annual Youth Tournament. Plus Xiao Yang"s chance of receiving an element is already so low".
Even though he was the patriarch of the clan, he could not make any decision without consulting to the elders who were still a couple of years older than him. If Xiao Yang"s received a high score in his test, then he would at least had a valid reason to give him an Elemental Will strengthening pill, but alas he couldn"t.
"Father, there are only three people in the Qian Clan that are going to attend the elemental ritual this year, I beg you to please give the last remaining pill to Xiao Yang" Qian Xian pleaded, her eyes looked wet.
Just before the patriarch was going to reply to her, a young-looking couple arrived inside the hall; they were Qian Xian"s big brother and her sister-in-law, "Father, the Elemental Will Strengthening pill is too precious to be given to an outsider".
"Brother, how can you say he is an outsider? He is still your nephew."
"Nephew? He is just some b.a.s.t.a.r.d"s son who you bought back home. It was your choice to go with that poor man and live a hard life than the young master of the Huang family." The woman sneered.
The elders, after hearing the woman"s words all nodded in unison, and one of them said with a shameful tone, "That"s right! Our Qian family could have received many resources for our young generations."
Qian Xian bit her lip; there was nothing she could say in front of those shameless people. Ever since treated her as a stranger ever since she bought Xiao Yang back when he was little, all they can think about is the could-have-gotten benefit if she was to marry the young master of the Huang family.
Xiao Yang had just arrived at the meeting hall, before arriving, he had already heard some of the words being said from outside, which led him to be somewhat infuriated. During the cla.s.s, when he was knocked onto the ground, he was living through the memory of his predecessor as if he was him. For him, it was like 16 years, but it was only a couple of seconds for the students, after living through the memory of his predecessor, Xiao Yang had learnt the struggles they had been through and had also developed some feelings. After all, he was an orphan in his past life, those feelings were new to him.
"Mum there"s nothing for us to beg these heartless people" Xiao Yang grabbed her by the hand and started walking out.
"But Xiao Yang you needed the Elemental Will Strengthening pill for the ritual tomorrow"
"Don"t worry mum, your son requires no such thing." Xiao Yang replied with confidence.
The elders, after hearing that, thought he was simply being too naive and arrogant.
"There is no way for him to become a mage with such a low score."
"He is too naive, does he think that elemental power is easy to gain?"
"For people like him, it"s best for them to experience it to actually understand how hard it is."
Even the patriarch had the same thought as the elders, it was simply too difficult for ones to achieve elemental power with a low score such as Xiao Yang.
