Main Line Chapter 13 Prodigy A
"Disciple Kevern, Baye under the house of Master Vasp Caelo's Dragon Head Peak, are to pay a visit to Tian Shishu and Su Shishu."
In Hall of Quietude, Tian Bolis and Surin sat in the main seats. Other disciples stood at the side, while two men in white clothes stood in the middle greeting Tian Bolis. The two were Baye and Kevern. Shaw Danon was watching them from the end of the row.
Having not seen them for a few years, everyone had grown up.
At that moment, Baye turned and faced Shaw Danon. Their eyes met. Baye lightly smiled and Shaw Danon nodded.
Tian Bolis looked at Kevern, shifted his gaze to Baye, then his face darkened. He knew the quality of each of the two disciples here was far ahead of any disciple in his house. Kevern was well-known in Jadeon; however, the young Baye could already use a sword, this meant he had reached at least Pure Essence fourth level. He had been adopted only three years ago; this achievement was quite shocking.
When he thought of that, he looked at Shaw Danon. Comparing the two, Tian Bolis' mood grew worse; he coldly asked: "What did your master send you here for?"
Kevern bowed and said: "Reporting to Tian Shishu, Master Vasp Caelo was entrusted by Master Doyel Shen to take care of the 'Seven Peak Tournament' that takes place two years from now. Due to a change in the arrangement, master ordered Lin Shidi and I to come and inform you."
Tian Bolis snorted and carefully examined Baye, said: "He wants to provoke me, right?"
Kevern and Baye's faces changed. Baye wanted to go forward, but Kevern held out his arm to stop him. He smiled and said: "Tian Shishu really loves to tell jokes. We are both under Jadeon, and Tian Shishu is highly respected. Our master does not have any intention of disrespect."
The colour of Tian Bolis' face was still dark, there did not seem to be any improvement. Surin had a kind smile on her face, gently said: "Don't mind him, he was kidding around. Right, the change in arrangement that you were talking about, what is it?"
Kevern respectfully replied: "Report to Su Shishu, the change is like this. In the past 'Seven Peaks Tournament,' each house sent four people, main house Peak of Widow sent eight; the total was thirty-two people. Opponents decided by sortition, winners advance, lasting a total of five rounds. The final winner will be considered Jadeon's most talented pupil among the disciples and will be educated under the guidance of the elders."
Surin smiled, kindly said: "At the contest last time, I remember you were the star of the tournament. You were in the final. If not due to Peak of Widow having Enu there, you would surely have become the champion of Jadeon."
Kevern's face did not change, still smiling: "Su Shishu has flattered me. In the last tournament, Enu Xiao Shixiong was gifted and deeply cultivated. I am nowhere near his level. I had no words to say. But the 'Seven Peaks Tournament' that is going to take place two years from now, after master and the Head of the Faction had discussed, we will have a change in the rules. We came here to inform the two Shishu."
Tian Bolis and Surin's tones changed, asked: "What it is?"
Kevern answered: "Master Vasp Caelo thought that the meaning of 'Seven Peaks Tournament' was to find and give education to the talented disciples. Now Jadeon has almost a thousand disciples, especially a number of new generation members, and many talented disciples among them. It is the event that only takes place every sixty years, but each house only sends four people; it is really too few. So, master suggested that each house send nine people, main house has the most people so they will send one more, in total there will be sixty-four people. The other details are just as usual, sorting and six rounds; this way there will be no regret for undiscovered talent."
Tian Bolis and Surin exchanged looks. The colour on their faces became worse. Bamboo Peak had less disciples and also lower quality. At first, it seemed that gave them the advantage; however, it actually is more beneficial to Peak of Widow and Dragon Head Peak since they have more talented students.
Surin looked at her husband and lightly shook her head. Tian Bolis knew what she meant. This had been already discussed between the Head and Vasp Caelo; everything had been set, there was no need to argue. He coldly responded: "That's fine, I have no comment."
Kevern smiled: "That's great. Also, master had instructed that Lin Shidi and Tian Shishu's disciple Zhang Shidi are old friends, he wishes Tian Shishu may let them have a chat with each other."
Tian Bolis was in a bad mood. He waved his hand and impatiently said: "Go, go."
Baye had already waited for a long time. Because he was facing a senior, however, he did not dare to speak. Now since he approved, he immediately turned around and walked toward Shaw Danon.
Baye walked in front of him. He carefully looked at Shaw Danon. He softly said: "You have grown up, Xiao Fan."
Shaw Danon nodded hard, said: "You too. Oh, did you get any news of anything about our village?"
Baye shook his head: "I asked my master many times, but still have made no progress. What about you?"
Shaw Danon bitterly smiled: "Same here."
Baye pulled his hand, said: "Let's go out there and talk."
Shaw Danon hesitated for a moment. He turned and looked at Tian Bolis and Surin. Tian Bolis ignored him. Surin smiled and said: "Go."
Shaw Danon nodded and hurriedly followed Baye outside. In the hall, the only guest was Kevern. He looked at each Bamboo Peak disciple. His sight finally landed on Xavion. Kevern bowed, smiled and said: "This must be Xavion Song Shixiong. We had met each other in the last tournament."
Xavion quickly bowed back: "Qi Shixiong has good memory. You still remember this defeated opponent."
All the disciples were surprised. Hidi asked her mother that was sitting next to her: "Mom, did da shixiong really lose tot his person?"
Surin nodded, lowered her voice: "Yes. That time, your da shixiong had finally won two rounds. Your father and I were very proud of him. Then in the third round the opponent was this individual; the fight was lost after just a few hits."
Hidi stuck out her tongue, said: "So does that mean that person is very powerful?"
Surin didn't answer her immediately. She turned her head and looked at her husband, seeing his face was steel green, sitting there motionless. She shook her head, said: "Kevern's skill is far greater than your da shixiong. That day he didn't even use any tricks. Especially the esper he crafted, 'Frozen Ice,' was made out of a thousand year old arctic crystal, extremely powerful. Your da shixiong is no match for him."
Tian Bolis seems felt something. He turned his head and looked at Surin. Their eyes meet and understand the word that hide inside of their heart: If only Bamboo Peak has such talented student.....

Kevern achieve success in cultivation, also gain deep trust of masters. He often travel around the world and know a lot things. Plus his clever and fluent tongue, Xavion, who got beaten by him, already had no hostility.

Kevern was telling some kind of joke and causing everybody to laugh. Then, Kevern's sight landed on Hidi and saw the "Phoenix Soul" around her waist. His eyes brightened, said: "Is that the famous Hidi Tian Shimei?"
Hidi lifted her eyebrows, asked: "How do you know it's me?"
Kevern smiled, stepped up a few steps, said: "Tian Shimei is only sixteen, but the accomplishment on Pure Essence is already superior to others. This is well known within our faction. I admired it for a long time. From what I can see today, you are well deserving of the reputation."
Hidi blushed, asked in an angry tone: "How do you know? You never saw me fight before."
Kevern was startled, quickly smiled and answered: "Tian Shimei is not only as beautiful as a flower, but also quite intelligent, making me ashamed as a shixiong."
