"This, you should already know but you cultivate by setting your mind clear and absorbing natural energy by feeling your surroundings. This part is easiest out of all the things you need to do to grow your qi and to grow in power." Lin Yu Yan looks at everyone again.
"Alright. Now that you know more where your power is, let's start on knowing what everyone's rank is. Everyone can tell that each person here has a different level of power in them. For example, look over at Gu Xiang."
Gu Xiang is the strongest out of them all. "He is a Martial King. 3-star to be exact."
They all looked at each other and only a few understood what she meant.
"The ranks of Cultivators are in order from lowest to highest is Martial: Warrior, Knight, General, King, Emperor, Honor, Supreme, Saint, God. Though I listed the highest as Martial God, You can still get stronger than that. The strongest Cultivator reached Martial god but it took him many years to get to it. I heard he lived for thousands of years before he past."
The demon boy, Tong Kenzhi, was amazed. He really can't wait to learn how to cultivate better and become a cultivator himself. Wu Lang is also excited to get started. The others know a little already and just wanted to start moving.
"Alright, I know it's boring but bare with me. But to reach Martial warrior, you must be higher then a level 10. Level 1-10 are not ranks like some of you here. And each rank is leveled with stars. The first 3, Warrior, Knight, and General each have up to 5 stars. The rest has 10 stars."
"Wait, why does the rest have 10 stars?" Xie Rong, one of the oldest of the group asked.
"Good question. It's because it takes a long time to reach the ranks. Reaching each stars takes years already. The ranks after get so tough that it broke into 10 stars. Most people reach rank Martial General at age 30."
"Whao, it takes that long?" Li Dan E ask a question this time. She was the quiet one and when she spoke up unconsciously, she blushed and looked away.
"Yes. Maybe even longer. But as I look at this group and with my help, we may grow even stronger." She smiles at all of them.
"Especially because it's you guys. I see a lot of potential in all you guys. I can see each one of you has something on your mind that you yourself want to reach. I have a goal, to revenge my parents." She looks at everyone and explains her situation.
"I choose you eleven because I need your help. When General Lu came over to the Mo Pharmacy, I saw in all of your eyes, especially," She points at Gu Xiang, Xie Rong, and Li Dan E.
"It seems my family has done something to you. I apologize." She bows down deeply for them. "But I know this is not enough for you. Please, help me revenge my parents. Then maybe this will also help your heart be at ease. I promise, I will let you free from my burdens."
No one said anything. Everyone looked at each other, then looked at Lin Yu Yan still deeply bowing her head.
"My brother, named Li Hong, was murdered by Gu Wangshu." The first one to talk was Li Dan E. "My brother and the evil woman was to be wedded. My brother was way older than me but he was the one who took care of me the most. My brother loved her but she left for another man. He didn't give up but one day, he didn't come home. I found his body near my house and the people who killed him was hired by Gu Wangshu. And after that, my family's home was raided by the Wang family accused for stealing money and I was the last survivor." She looked down trying not to show her face in case she cried but she did anyway.
"I'm… Gu Wangshu's brother." Gu Xiang looks over at Li Dan E. Li Dan E was surprised to see a kin of that evil woman. "I was accused for killing a man I never even met. I was away from my family my whole life, being born a good-for-nothing. But I worked up to where I am now and was able to come back to the Gu family. I only stayed in that house for a month then was accused for murder. It was probably your brother." He looked straight at Li Dan E. "I apologize for what my sister did to your family." He bowed deeply to her.
"It's not your fault, you shouldn't do that!" Li Dian E became flustered.
