Reincarnated With A System In A Cultivation World

My father dragged me to the same family pavilion that I went to when I first arrived. We went up the stairs, and I could see that the hall inside was completely empty. Whatever this was, it was supposed to be private.

We entered the hall and saw that my grandfather was on the highest seat. My father looked at him and nodded.

“Oh my, we can finally talk. When was it that you were going to tell me that this boy was able to cultivate? Did you not think it appropriate, considering that our survival would very well be dependent on it?” Liu Hong asked.

“Forgive me, father, but the truth is that even I did not know that he could cultivate until two months ago. The master who was passing by gave him a body that was capable of cultivating, and now he reached the Foundation Establishment Stage in just five months. He could be capable of reaching the Xiantian realm. It is not impossible.” Liu Qian said.

“It took him a whole five months to cross a grand stage. Do you not think that it will take him more than five years to cross the four between? It will take him a long, long time to reach the Xiantian realm, that is if he even will. You have signed his death sentence, for all intents and purposes.” Liu Hong shook his head.

I looked at this scene with confusion. Did they both forget that I was here? I didn’t like the proceedings one bit. All of this reveal should have happened after the martial gathering was over. That way, I would be focused only on that, and not some freak trying to kill me for no reason at all. I shuddered just thinking about how my life would end.

“If he wins the martial gathering, then he will get the opportunity to enter the Spirit Jade Pool. If he is able to use that energy properly, then he will be able to get to the mid ranks of the Foundation Establishment stage. He will be allowed to go to the Sky Heavens Sect. They will protect him until he grows strong enough.” Liu Qian protested.

“The sect is waning. They will collapse in a few years. It is a pity. The royal capital has only enemies, and the rest of the world is falling prey to the throne. The world is truly an unfair one. But I did not call you here only to berate you. I have more important things to do. Liu Feng will leave the city after the martial gathering, if I am not wrong. He has to. After the martial gathering is over, everyone will know that he is able to cultivate. I will send him to the Sky Heavens Sect myself, and after that he will be the owner of his own destiny. But until then, he will be the face of the Liu Family. And that means that he needs to get to the top. He needs to be in the top three.” Liu Hong said.

I nodded.

“I will do my best to win, grandfather.” I said.

“Because we have three young ones in the Foundation Establishment, for the first time in the history of the family, our foundation is stronger than everyone else’s. We are actually capable of getting more than one of the top eight spots. Hopefully, we get three of them. But when I saw Liu Feng today, I agreed with Liu Xin. Your techniques are coarse, and forced. You are not completely in tune with the attacks that you use. And your spear. You are using the spear that all the disciples get once they come to the training grounds, aren’t you?” he asked me.

“Yes, grandfather.” I nodded.

“You idiot. If I hadn’t seen that, then you would go to your doom in a week. Go to the training grounds building and ask the elder there for a Earth ranked weapon. You goddamn idiot. You are in the foundation establishment stage. A mortal rank weapon will not be able to handle your Qi and power.” he said.

I nodded. That made sense. I knew that my spear was getting blunt, but I attributed that to Liu Xin’s attacks. But if my own attacks were doing that to the spear, then that means that there was a chance that I could have finished that match even before the fourth strike of the Blue Dragon Spear Art.

I nodded and turned around.

“Wait. I am not done yet. You young ones are so impatient. Wait a minute. I wanted to talk to you about the martial gathering as well. Do you not want to know who your opponents are, and what you can expect from them?” he stopped me.

I turned around and beamed.

“That will be more precious than the weapon, grandfather.” I nodded.

“Good. You at least have your priorities. Sit down, I’ll show you how much trouble you are in.” he said as he gestured.

“Liu Qian. You can leave now. He can do this without you.” Liu Hong said, dismissing my father. Or rather, the person that I thought was my father.

Liu Qian nodded and left the hall. I was all alone with Liu Hong. He laughed at me.

“Sit down. There is much to say. I will not talk about the small fry. Only the major clans are important. The Bai and Cai families. I will tell you their main abilities. They are most frightening.” he said.

I sat on the ground, looking intently at Liu Hong.

“So, the Bai family. They are most proficient in the…..”
