The moment the rainbow pillar shot to the skies, numerous experts appeared on rooftops in every part of Rivulet City. Astonished looks showed on each of their faces when they saw the rainbow pillar to the east of the city, near Mt Burning Cloud. As if they had an agreement beforehand, all of them sped in that direction almost simultaneously.
The three green-robed men on Mt Burning Cloud also flew in that direction when they saw the rainbow pillar. However, the authoritative one among them, who always had his hands to his back, extended his hand and sent the other two back to the ground, nodding slightly to those two bowmen before flying off toward the rainbow pillar alone. The two looked at one another and gave helpless shrugs.
As the experts sped in the direction toward Mt Burning Cloud, they discovered that the rainbow pillar which shot to the sky gradually disappeared. Those who hadn't made it to the location immediately sped up, afraid to miss out on anything.
Many experts rapidly gathered on a summit not far away from Mt Burning Cloud. The ones who arrived first were all staring blankly at a small tree emitting rainbow energy. Seven little beggars were sitting around it, each of them munching on half a fruit in their hand, completely ignoring the stares of these strangers.
"These children are eating mysterious fruits!" a crazed voice yelled out, breaking the silence on the mountain summit.
The crowd looked to the empty little tree emitting faint rainbow energy, then shifted their gaze to the children, who were eating the fruits in their hands. They all gulped a mouthful of saliva uncontrollably at the sight.
As the beggars felt the burning gazes directed at them, they quickly finished up the fruits. It looked like they were starved, afraid that these people would snatch their food away.
The surrounding cultivators watched as the fruit juice leaked from the corners of the beggars mouths, feeling indescribable heartache. Those were mysterious fruits! And they ate them just like that! Though, they didn't know a thing about the effects of the fruits; they would just wait and see.
Suddenly, the seven beggars let out powerful auras at the same time, causing the crowd to immediately change their expressions.
"This aura, it's at the strength of a third stage Qi realm at the very least!" Nangong Fang whispered to the disciples behind her. She was still dressed in white, and was one of the first to arrive. The disciples all looked at the seven little beggars in astonishment as they heard her whispers.
"If we could just get one of these children, that would mean we have already secured a future peak expert for ourselves!" muttered the red-robed Third Elder of the Undying School, Bu Wangsheng. His eyes lit up at the sight of the seven beggar children.
"Snatch!" someone suddenly yelled, causing numerous silhouettes to instantly flash toward the seven beggars.
However, before the first few to arrive at the kids could lay their hands on them, the cultivators were blocked by the experts who had caught up to them.
"Such talented children are not something you people of tiny schools can lay your hands on! Take my slash!"
"Hmmph! Our Glacial Ambuscade Pavilion are calling dibs on these children; who dares to vie against us!?"
"You dare to take all of them away with just your Glacial Ambuscade Pavilion? Don't think of bringing even just one of them away!"
The area had turned into the cultivation schools' battleground, and the seven beggars had all fainted from the sudden surge of aura in their bodies.
