"Mommy!" Aiqing spoke, she then jumped at Shang Ting's lap.

"I like this place better!"

Shang Ting giggles as she brushed Aiqing's hair with her hand.

Hearing this, all of the five elders looked at the two in shock, before staring back at Mo Xie again.

'Patriarch and Matriarch have a daughter?' They thought that Aiqing is just a cousin of the two, but checking the age of Mo Xie and Shang Ting and also looking at the 9-year old girl, Aiqing, they shook their head.

In their head, it most likely is an adopted daughter, but seeing that Shang Ting and Aiqing resembled each other so much, they couldn't even make amends of what to think further.

"The five of you, which do you think would be the two most outstanding disciples amongst the two hundred partic.i.p.ants, practically, the two that will definitely get the top 1 and 2 ranks?" Mo Xie asked.

Wuhan smiled as he looked at the other four that is standing beside him.

"Patriarch, about that, there is a problem. Amongst this batch of outer disciples, there are actually three very outstanding individuals with almost equal powers."

Mo Xie's eyes slightly moved up as his mouth opened, like saying 'Ohhh~', this piqued his interest.

"Explain."

Wuhan nodded and immediately responded; "Patriarch, the first person is Huolin, a female that has comprehension ability, she is the first to learn and master the cultivation art that had pa.s.sed to us, the very first to break through to silver rank amongst her peers."

As Wuhan finished speaking, he pointed at the girl sitting on top of a rock in a lotus position.

Mo Xie nodded his head; "The next one is?"

"Patriarch, the next one will be that boy, his name is Wentian, his comprehension with martial arts is truly outstanding, he's the 3rd to break through to silver rank! he can fight evenly with his seniors now."

Mo Xie nodded: "The last one would be?"

"That would be..." Wuhan started to look around, searching for that last person. Finding his search in vain, he looked at the other elders and asked.

"Where is she?"

The other elders seemed to had been searching too: "That... where?"

The five of them looked at each other before searching for the girl again.

"Patriarch, we would like to go and look for the girl first." Feeling a little embarra.s.sed, Wuhan would like to search with the other elders first.

Mo Xie only chuckles as he waved his hand: "Go on then, the tournament will start any moment now."

"Thank you, Patriarch!" The five elders immediately left as soon as they replied, they need to look for that girl after all.

...

Somewhere, within the gardens of the Mo Family.

"Mhmm... Nya.. Nyaaa..."

A girl is playing with the flowers as she kept removing the dirt from its stem.

"Hmmm?" The girl looked around, seeing the lively servants chatting amongst themselves; 'I think I forgot something...'

The girl closed her eyes as she frowned while touching her temple; 'There is definitely something... something important...'

The girl started to walk back to the residence, she then saw two figures walking towards her.

"Oh! h.e.l.lo Grand El-" But before she could finish her own words.

"LU!!! OOO!!!! YAAAAAANNNGG!!!!" Wuhan shouted at her as he approached fast.

"Eeeek! What did I do!?" The girl called Luoyang opened her eyes wide in shock.

"Grand Elder! I don't know what I did wrong! Please have mercy!" Luoyang begged as she started to run.

"HMMP! The patriarch is waiting for you! The tournament is about to start!" Wuhan exclaimed.

"Don't worry Luoyang, just go there." Lingxin spoke.

"Thank you, Elder!" Luoyang immediately skipped back to the direction of the tournament, not wanting to face Wuhan's anger at all.

Wuhan looked at Lingxin and spoke "Hmmp! She's been too mischievous, a little punishment should be implemented."

"Hahaha, don't worry, the tournament is today, we might ruin her chance in obtaining the top." Lingxin replied.

"Haaa, let's just go, we might miss the tournament ourselves."

"Let's go."

After finding the little girl, they immediately went back to the tournament area.

As soon as they arrived, the tournament had already started.

Mo Xie is the one that's handling it together with Shang Ting.

The match consists of all the top students, Huolin, Wentian, Luoyang, and the others that have the cultivation base of 5-star silver rank, the others below it didn't even consider partic.i.p.ating.

They had been sparring with each other after all, hence, they all knew of each others strength, but still, they wish to know of the ranking of the people inside the Clan's outer disciples.

There are only 50 partic.i.p.ants, hence, Mo Xie made it into a 'whoever holds the arena is the top' tournament, and once the ten arena has no more challengers, each of them will challenge each other, deciding on the top 10 list.

"Begin!" Mo Xie spoke, his words immediately started the compet.i.tion.

"Hahaha, I will take the number one arena if n.o.body minds!" A descended as a girl jumped to the 1st stage.

"Ah! Martial Sister Luoyang!"

"It is Martial Sister Luoyang! where has she been?"

"I haven't seen her after we finished preparing."

"She must've gone to pick up some flowers again."

"Yeah, hahaha."

Everyone started to chat amongst themselves, then, another voice sounded.

"I will take the second one then." Another voice is heard, everyone looked at the direction as they excitedly exclaimed.

"It's Martial Brother Wentian!"

"Yeah, I really wonder, who amongst the three of them is the best."

"Then... Then next is..." The crowd started to antic.i.p.ate, as they thought of it, another figure approached a stage.

"There!"

One of them pointed.

"Martial Sister Huolin!"

"Woah! She's stepping on the stage now!"

"Yeah! Begin! Begin!"

Everyone is antic.i.p.ating it, the clash between their own Clan's geniuses.

"Martia Brother Wentian, please guide me."

"Martial Sister Huolin, please guide me."

"Martial Brother Danwu, please guide me."

"Martial Broth..."

"..."

Continuous challenge kept sounding on the air, Mo Xie is looking at the tournament, seemingly interested in what's happening, but there is something that caught his attention.

"No one is challenging Luoyang."

A smile etched on his lips as he already knows the meaning of it, Mo Luoyang, is a monster in their own eyes.

"Daddy!" A word of came out of Aiqing's cute and tender little lips as she spoke.

"Hmm? What is it?" Mo Xie asked.

"I want to challenge that big sister!" Aiqing pointed at Luoyang as she excitedly said those 'cute' words.
