First stage entrance examination continues. Most disciple was around level 4 or 5. Suddenly one disciple caught Yang Luoya interest.
"Xu Yanran", The examiner called. A young woman with noble and graceful presence step forward. Lot of disciple fallen for her beauty.
"(Xu Yanran.... she shouldn't be here)", Yang Luoya thought. Xu Yanran is the older sister of the second male lead, Xu Ming. While Xu ming is the illegalimate child of emperor, Xu Yanran is the legalimate child. But since she's an omega, she lost her right as a successor. Basically She and Yang Luoya is in the same boat.
The question is, why she's here? She shouldn't be here. Why would she enter a sect across her own continent? it doesn't make any sense. In original novel, she should be entering Vermilion sect, still inside Xu continent.
Xu Yanran then touched the sphere. Several water bubbles appeared from nowhere, floating among disciples. "water core, level six, pass", the examiner said. Xu Yanran returned to her place.
"that girl is impressive! and so beautiful", Said Mei Lan. "She had the same surname as Xu royal family, is it coincidence?", said Ying Feng.
"(Why is brother stare at her for a long time? is she his type?)", Yang Wei get pissed and annoyed. "Yang Wei, you stare at her for a long time, do you like her?", Mei Lan asked.
"How can i like her?", said Yang Wei. More and more student get called. After few hours, the last student finally get measured. After measurement, more than 300 student get eliminated.
"Congratulation for those who passed the exam, the second exam will begind in three days. As i said before, the second exam will be group exam. For the next three day make a group of four and gather here at the day of the exam. We will provide room for you to stay until then", said Liu Yong.
In original novel, Yang Wei has a hard time looking for teamates. In the end he will only get leftover group with minimum qualification. Yang Luoya smiled at Yang Wei, "i'm glad he finally made friends on the first day", Yang Luoya mumble.
"Shall we make group?", said Ying Feng. "Of course, of course, it's hard to make friend among scary looking people", Said Mei Lan. "we are one person short",said Yang Wei.
"I heard your group is one person short, can i join?", it was Xu Yanran. Yang Wei getting annoyed since this girl is the reason his brother stare too much. "That's good! a beautiful lady join us! and she's strong too", said Mei Lan. Ying Feng nodded, "She got good qualification, what do you think Yang Wei?"
Yang Wei got silent, it doesn't matter how much anger he had for Xu Yanran, he had no choice to let Xu Yanran in since most disciple already made their own group. "it's decided then, let's meet up in three days"
"I see most of you already made a group. I declare The first examination ended and three days to prepare the second examination, until then", Said Liu Yong. The crowd scattered doing their own activity.

Xu Yanran take a walk around the sect, lot of new disciple or senior disciple take a glance at her appearance. Some even tried to start conversation, but got ignored at the end.
"surname Xu", Yang Luoya called from behind. A group of people who started the conversation with her scattered. "it's senior Yang Luoya", "it's him", "run" A lot of people still afraid of Yang Luoya.
Xu Yanran turn around and make a graceful bow at Yang Luoya. "Senior, what do you want from me?", said Xu Yanran calmly.
"Why are you here?", Yang Luoya went straight to the point. "What do you mean senior why am i here?", Xu Yanran were confused. "you know what i mean, suddenly enter a sect accross the continent... it doesn't make any sense to me"
"it seems like senior already know my identity, i'm Xu Yanran, the eldest daughter of Xu emperor, why am i here, it's because i want to become strong and prove to my dad that i'm worthy of becoming his successor", said Xu Yanran with more noble presence.
"There's a lot of strong sect you can enter in Xu continent, such as vermilion sect", said Yang Luoya. "Vermilion sect? it seems like senior didn't hear the latest news, Vermilion sect got annihilated few weeks ago", Yang Luoya was shocked.
Vermilion sect is also important place. Under vermilion sect is their ancestor grave. Their founder ancestor grave was burried together with one blood candle. The culprit is probably the same one who stole blood candle in moonlight river. So the second omen probably because the second blood candle already taken.
"Annihilated? how?"
Xu Yanran shake her head, "i don't know, townspeople who live not far from there said that the sect just burned to ashes, no evidence left behind. No one knows wheter human or beast who destroy it", Xu Yanran explained.
"why won't you enter a sect inside Xu continent?"
"other than Vermilion sect, no sect was good enough for me to cultivate my strength, so i decided to enter four peak sect"
"then how can you arrive here in such a short time? you're crossing a continent right? it should take around a month to arrive here", Yang Luoya asked.
"I just happen to find a tamed flying beast, so i arrived fast by air"
"that makes sense...."
"Senior, is Yang Wei your younger brother?", Xu Yanran asked. "Yeah why do you ask?", said Yang Luoya.
"Nothing, it's just he and i are in the same group of second examination", Yang Luoya eyes soften and smiled a bit. "Is that so... please take care of him, he's still inexperienced"
"I heard senior Yang Luoya was scary and a sadist, but now i know that rumour was wrong. Senior was a kind person who cared about his younger brother so much", Xu Yanran laugh sweetly.
"Yeah.... i cared so much about him, i want him to become strong but i don't want him to get injured", Yang Luoya sigh and smile softly.
"don't worry senior i will help him whenever i can", Xu Yanran also smiled. Unexpectedly, Yang Wei was standing not far from them and watching the whole scene. Unfortunately, he couldn't hear anything they talking about.
"brother.... why are you smiling at her?", Yang Wei mumble. He became jealous and angry. Of course Yang Luoya couldn't see Yang Wei since he stand not far but not close from them. Yang Wei face became gloomy and darker.
"Why.... don't stand too close to her"
