Past life sage: This life a dual cultivator

"A below eighteen Core condensation realm girl! Really a rare find. I have to look into other powers' offers to her, otherwise I will try to recruit her into our clan", Lu Tai Cang softly spoke.

A surprised look appeared on Zhan Chen's face after he heard Lu Tai Cang 's words. "A clan generally focus on his own younger generation. Are you planning to bring an outsider and give her your best resources?", he asked.

"Why not? She can't become a core elder of our clan but we can recruit her as a guest elder after she reach the Martial ascension realm", Lu Tai Cang spoke.

Zhan Chen felt speechless after hearing Lu Tai Cang 's words. 'I have really underestimated these clans appetite for genuine talent. They can do anything if it means they are growing strong', Zhan Chen thought to himself.

The first round eventually ended with five cultivators being selected from each stone platforms. A commotion instantly started among the experts in the surrounding after the first round in the stone platform concluded.

Many experts flew down ward after they saw the young cultivators stepping out of the stone platform. They immediately approached the selected young cultivators after they came out of the battle ground.

"Young man, how about joining my Fire spear sect. Our sect can make you a Core disciple right away if you come to our sect", an enthusiastic expert approached the young man who was using the long spear in the first round of the competition.

"Young man, don't fall for old He's words. They can't give you much even if they try because of their sect's condition. Come to my Violent sky sect. I promise the best treatment for you if join our sect", another expert chimed in from the side.

Zhan Chen looked at the choatic situation in the ground and his mouth twitched. 'These old men are really shameless', he thought to himself and took a look at Lu Tai Cang instinctively to see what he was doing. A stunned expression appeared on his face because Lu Tai Cang had already vanished from his side.

Zhan Chen looked downward and saw him approaching the whip wielding girl with a smiling expression on his face. Even, Lu Mingxi found this embarassing when she saw what Lu Tai Cang was doing.

The commotion finally ended after awhile. Zhan Chen felt amused after seeing the bitter look on Lu Tai Cang 's face. "Senior Cang, what happened?", he asked him after after Lu Tai Cang returned to his side.

"I have never thought that the old witch would personally come. The girl is taken by their Fragrant Lily sect", Lu Tai Cang spoke with a frustrated tone in his voice.

"Fragrant Lily sect?", Zhan Chen felt confused for a moment. An idea struck Lu Tai Cang 's mind after he saw that Zhan Chen taking notice of the Fragrant moon sect.

"It is a sect of only females like the Frozen cloud sect but they are completely different from eachother. Frozen cloud sect does not interact with outsiders much but the Fragrant Lily sect kept harassing other cultivators with the charming techniques on their hands.

It is a tragedy for a male cultivator who come in contact with them. All of them are witches who take advantage of a man's vulnerability", Lu Tai Cang explained. He seemed to be advicing Zhan Chen but Zhan Chen could see the grudge of Lu Tai Cang towards the Fragrant lily sect after hearing his words.

Lu Mingxi smiled softly after hearing the conversation between Zhan Chen and Lu Tai Cang. Zhan Chen, sixth elder is telling the truth. It is better for you to stay away from the cultivators of the Fragrant lily sect", she added from the side.

'Charming technique! Fragrant lily sect. How interesting. I have to see whether they have some suitable girls or not', Zhan Chen thought to himself.

A smile appeared on Lu Tai Cang 's face after he saw the interested look on Zhan Chen's face. "Damn witch, let's see if you will stay complacent or not if you face this little devil by my side", he thought to himself.

Second round of the competition started after a small gap of time. Li Yan stood up and took a look at Zhan Chen before stepping down the hill.

"Good luck, Li Yan", Zhan Chen spoke from her behind after seeing her acting so resolutely. A worried look appeared on Li Shu and Kai Min's faces after they saw Li Yan marching towards the five stone platforms.

"Young master, is sister Yan going to be okay?", Li Shu asked Zhan Chen with deep concern on her face.

"Don't worry. She will be fine even if she got defeated", Zhan Chen spoke. The battle started immediately after the Spirit palace cultivators struck the drums thrice. A choatic battle once again started among the cultivators who were occupying the five stone platforms.

Li Yan drew her sword and looked at the surrounding cultivators cautiously. She didn't get to observe much as she was attacked right away as soon as the third beating of the spirit drum was heard.

Her attacker was also a girl who was wielding a sword like herself. Metallic sound came out as both of their swords collided.

"I am Shi Xuejing. Let me know your name", the girl spoke before withdrawing her sword. Two young cultivators saw the girls talking. So, they charged towards them trying to finish them up.

"Let's first take care of them. Then, we can resume ours", Shi Xuejing spoke and charged towards an opponent. Li Yan shifted her gaze towards the other opponent and defended the attack coming towards her.

"Clang", a sound came out as her sword collided with the battle axe, her opponent was using. The young man opponent to her had a menacing look on her face as she used some agressive axe techniques to corner Li Yan.

No matter how skilled Li Yan was, she had no way around for such a barbaric and forceful manner of fighting. The young cultivator opposite to her, hacked at her fiercely and Li Yan had a difficult look on her face as she found it difficult to defend herself.

The menacing looking young man suddenly felt something and halted his attacks. "Beauty, your luck is good", he spoke and backed away.

Li Yan felt confused for a moment but her confusion cleared after she saw Shi Xuejing coming towards her again.

Shi Xuejing was holding a bloody sword in her hand as she walked towards Li Yan. She had a fierce look on her face and Li Yan felt a sudden chill in her spine when she looked towards Shi Xuejing.

"The opponents she is facing has real battle experiences", Zhan Chen murmured after seeing the opponents of Li Yan.

Shi Xuejing slightly calmed down after seeing the cautious look on Li Yan's face. "Shall we start?", she asked and waited for Li Yan's response.

Li Yan nodded her head resolutely and took a position to battle with Shi Xuejing. Shi Xuejing didn't speak further and launched a hacking slash at Li Yan.

Li Yan replied by a slashing attack of her own and a fierce battle ensured between the two as they kept attacking eachother.
