Chapter 5

The second young master of the Kong family is also a rather well-known figure in Kunka City. Apart from his prominent identity as the second young master of the Kong family, it is also due to the fact that his life, though only twelve years long, has been full of twists and turns.

When he was young, the second young master of the Kong family was known as a prodigy! He began practicing the family's secret techniques at the age of three, and in just one month, he was able to sense the existence of the elemental forces of heaven and earth, thus officially embarking on the path of cultivation and becoming an entry-level Yuan practitioner!

Compared to the average cultivator, who needs half a year to a year of hard practice to sense the elemental forces of heaven and earth, the second young master of the Kong family can truly be considered a once-in-a-decade prodigy!

After embarking on the path of cultivation, the second young master of the Kong family advanced at an incredible speed, breaking through the seven levels of the entry-level Yuan practitioner in just two years, and officially becoming a初级 Yuan Scholar at the age of five, thus claiming the title of the youngest Yuan Scholar in Kunka City's history!

After that, the second young master of the Kong family continued to advance at a stunning pace, almost always taking a step up every two years. By the time he was not yet nine years old, he had advanced to the realm of a high-level Yuan Scholar! At this rate of cultivation, it was only a matter of time before the second young master of the Kong family broke through the Yuan Scholar realm and advanced to become a Yuan Master.

In the Tianyuan Continent, those who have the ability to cultivate are absolutely one in ten thousand! The so-called cultivation ability is determined by whether one can sense the existence of the elemental forces of heaven and earth. Only under the drive of these elemental forces can one cultivate various Yuan techniques and martial arts, thus possessing great supernatural powers.

The path of cultivation is fraught with thorns. Even for those with cultivation ability, achieving remarkable accomplishments is an extremely difficult task.

For cultivators, being able to sense the existence of the elemental forces of heaven and earth is considered becoming an entry-level Yuan practitioner. Then, based on one's own constitution, one chooses the corresponding Yuan technique to refine the body and soul, thus achieving a realm upgrade.

There are seven levels of Yuan practitioners, known as the seven heavens. Only by breaking through the seventh heaven can one shed the mortal constraints and officially become a Yuan Scholar.

Cultivators only reach the realm of Yuan Scholar to be considered true cultivators. Despite the single level difference between Yuan practitioner and Yuan Scholar, this step is a world apart, and for most cultivators, the seventh heaven is a hurdle that they may never cross in their entire lives.

Of course, even an entry-level Yuan practitioner is an incredibly powerful existence in the eyes of ordinary people. Even a beginner Yuan practitioner at the first three heavens can become a formidable opponent capable of taking on a hundred people. One can say that cultivators have always been looked up to by ordinary people!

Generally speaking, only after advancing to the realm of Yuan Scholar can one be considered a true cultivator, but the path of cultivation only begins from this step, with countless peaks waiting for cultivators to climb!

For cultivators, after the realm of Yuan Scholar, there are also the realms of Yuan Master, Yuan General, Yuan Marshal, Yuan Emperor, and Yuan Saint, each of which can be divided into three levels:初级, intermediate, and advanced. Even breaking through between levels within the same realm is an extremely difficult task for cultivators, and many cultivators may spend their entire lives in hard practice without making any progress!

Advancing from Yuan practitioner to Yuan Scholar is a hurdle for cultivators, and breaking through from Yuan Master to Yuan General is another. Although cultivators in the realms of Yuan Scholar and Yuan Master have shed the label of entry-level, they are still considered low-level cultivators. Only by advancing to the realm of Yuan General can one become a true powerhouse!

Cultivators who can become Yuan Generals are without exception considered powerful figures in their regions. If they can further advance to the realm of Yuan Marshal, they can be considered the top figures in various countries, already at the pinnacle of the secular world!

As for the higher realms of Yuan Emperor and Yuan Saint, they have transcended the secular world and are beyond the reach of ordinary people. Such supreme cultivators are seen as almost divine by ordinary people.

In legends, there are even stronger beings above the realm of Yuan Saint, but legends are just legends. No one can clearly say what lies beyond the realm of Yuan Saint!

The hierarchy among cultivators is clearly defined, and the power gap between each realm can be described as a world apart! Even within the same realm, the power gap between初级, intermediate, and advanced levels is at least three to four times!

Thus, high-realm cultivators naturally become rare and precious existences, enjoying extremely high status in various countries. A powerful cultivator is often a target of intense competition among various factions. Like the second young master of the Kong family, who can achieve the realm of a high-level Yuan Scholar before the age of ten, can truly be described as a prodigy of extraordinary talent!

Generally speaking, being able to advance to the realm of Yuan Master before adulthood can be considered having extremely rare cultivation talent, with a high possibility of eventually growing into a top powerhouse at the level of Yuan Marshal or even higher!

In the Tianyuan Continent, one is considered an adult at the age of sixteen. Given the talent displayed by the second young master of the Kong family, if he could achieve the realm of Yuan Master at the age of ten, wouldn't his future be even more promising?

The Kong family in Kunka City is just a branch of the Kong family, but if such a branch can produce a Yuan Marshal-level powerhouse, it would immediately be recognized by the main family, and the entire branch would be re-integrated into the main family!

The second young master of the Kong family, with such excellent cultivation talent, has been given high hopes by the family since childhood. For the family, if the second young master of the Kong family can truly become a Yuan Marshal-level powerhouse, then the family's return to the main family is a certainty!

But perhaps it is the heavens that envy talent. The second young master of the Kong family, who had just turned nine, suddenly fell ill with a strange disease. Although he ultimately survived, his mind was somehow damaged. In a single night, the former prodigy fell from the clouds, and the dream of becoming a Yuan Marshal-level powerhouse became a laughingstock!

The second young master of the Kong family's intelligence regressed to that of a three-year-old child, lacking even basic self-care abilities. How could he talk about cultivation?

More than three years have passed, and the second young master of the Kong family's reputation in Kunka City has grown even louder. However, the reason for his growing reputation is not because of his talent, but because he is the most noble idiot in the entire city!

And now, the second young master of the Kong family, who had once turned from a prodigy to an idiot, suddenly woke up after being unconscious for three days and three nights!!
