In a vast and brightly lit room, a middle-aged man dressed in simple clothing sat on top of a strange looking mat. He had dark red hair with streaks of silver appearing at the edges, and a hard face that seemed as if a chisel had sculpted it. His eyes not only showed a trace of weariness but a firm spirit looking to have shouldered most of the wind and rain in life.

There were many piles of documents and jade slips that were scattered around his figure on the floor. In front of him stood a table the height of a stool with a variety of scrolls along with an ink container placed at the side.

This man was Feng Yunlong, the current clan leader of the Feng Clan, with a cultivation achievement of 9th tier Aura Disciple realm which was only one pace away from the True Foundation realm. He was one of the dominant individuals in Machen Town.

"Father, you called for me." Feng Yu said while closing the door behind him and bowing politely.

"Come, sit down." Looking at the pale and distressed appearance of his son, Feng Yunlong was finding it very difficult to keep his rage at bay. He gestured at Feng Yu to sit in front of the table.

Feeling a bit skeptical, Feng Yu quickly sat down and looked at his father, or rather, his new father.

"Who had the gall to injure you my son? How did this happen to you? Quickly tell me so that I can get to the bottom of this immediately!" said Feng Yunlong.

Seeing the flustered love filled concern and boiling raged filled expression of his father Feng Yu felt something he never had the chance to experience in his previous life. "A parent's love for their children is a child's precious treasure indeed..." He thought to himself as he decided to say his ordeal rather than keep it hidden. Of course, he didn't reveal the fact of him being a reincarnated soul.

As was expected of Feng Yunlong, after hearing about the betrayal and treatment his son received from the Xiang and Huan Families descendants, he only ended up getting more infuriated.

"Good! Very good! Their sons dare to do this to you; I must have a look at what kind of response they will give me today!" Feng Yunlong shouted in rage as he promptly stood up causing his aura to over-fluctuate which lead to the surrounding books became a mess, and the table flying towards a corner of the room soon after colliding with the wall.

However, as he was about to storm outside of the room, he quickly was interrupted by Feng Yu.

"Father, wait! Let me solve this matter on my own, after all; a man must learn to solve his own problems. I will challenge and beat them both to death in the approaching Talent Selection!" A confident expression was shown on Feng Yu's face, even though he looked pale and weak due to his current wounds. With his knowledge, he was confident that he would be capable of not only securing a quota but also, defeating both Xiang Shu and Huan Shan.

Feng Yunlong, on the other hand, was shocked by Feng Yu's sudden declaration. He looked at Feng with curiosity as he pondered to himself. "What's going on? Was this my usual Yu'er playing his antics? Or is it possible that he's grown up a little after having experienced such an ordeal?"

Regardless of the true cause, he felt proud of the slight change in Feng Yu's mindset. "At least it looks like there's hope for him to improve." Feng Yunlong thought, but soon after he shook his head and as muttered to silently himself. "But that's something for future."

With less than two months left to prepare for the selection, wanting not only to earn a spot for the quota but also to defeat Xiang Shu and Huan Shan, who were both already practitioners at the 7th tier of Body Training realm, was impossible, even for the most startling talents.
