The young man’s question made many people reminisce, as if they were recalling the past.
The middle-aged man smiled and said, “It’s normal that you don’t understand them. They are two legends. Even compared to the geniuses on the current Prodigy List, they are still two legends.
“One of them is Chu Yunfan, the number one on the previous Prodigy List. The other is Jun Tianci, the number one on the Prodigy List before that,” the middle-aged man said slowly.
There was no need to say anything more. Just their status as number one on the Prodigy List was enough to show their weight. Even a substitute prodigy on the Prodigy List was an unattainable figure for most people in the teahouse. And these two people were each the number one on the Prodigy List of their era. The weight of it was self-evident.
“That’s not right, Master. W asn’t the previous number one on the Prodigy List Tang Siyu? Who is this Chu Yunfan?” the young man said in confusion.
Ever since he was born, the number one on the Prodigy List that he knew of was Tang Siyu. Where did this Chu Yunfan come from? It was like a stone monkey that had appeared out of thin air.
The middle-aged man just smiled and shook his head. “That was something that happened after he was in power. When he was in power, he swept through his peers and crushed the prodigies of the world. Now, those big shots you’ve heard of, Zi Buyu of Great Change Faith, Meng Tianren of the Virtuous Academy, Hu Qingxuan of the Heavenly Foxes, and so on, were all defeated by him back then. He alone killed all the heroes of the world. There were many legendary figures who died in his hands. He was a figure who truly surpassed his peers.
The middle-aged man continued after a pause. “Even Tang Siyu, the previous number one, could only be ranked second when he was still in power.”
The young man’s expression changed. Although he didn’t know how powerful Chu Yunfan was back then, the fact that those legendary figures had to bow down to him when facing him was enough to prove this person’s might.
Many people opened their mouths but did not say anything. Even those who had been defeated by Chu Yunfan had not fought for several years. Or rather, they had not fought in front of the secular world. These people all had cultivation bases that surpassed the supreme elders of the various sects, each one more powerful than the last. Some of them had entered Grand Xia to serve, and their positions were extremely high. Those young prodigies of the past were now the giants of the entire world. The situation was completely different.
“He was already the only marquis of his generation a long time ago. He was extremely glorious!” the middle-aged man said, “Moreover, in terms of age, Chu Yunfan is actually not very old. If we really count him, he should be considered a prodigy of this year’s list. However, he had already made a comeback more than ten years ago. Among his peers, he was invincible.
Therefore, the Mysteries Pavilion listed him on the Prodigy List.”
There was an upper limit to the age on the Prodigy List, but there was no lower limit. That was why Chu Yunfan, who was far younger than those prodigies, could be on the list. This kind of situation was very rare since ancient times, and it was almost impossible to do it. The Prodigy List was the most outstanding people of a generation. Talent, fortune, inheritance, resources, all of them were at the top. Under such circumstances, to reverse the situation and sweep away all the powerful enemies to become the number one on the Prodigy List, no one had ever been able to do it.
“Chu Hongcai, who is currently on the list, is his clan member. The two of them aren’t much different in age. Hua Xianyuan was also his fellow disciple back then and entered the Flying Celestials with him. However, Hua Xianyuan’s brilliance was overshadowed by Chu Yunfan alone,” someone said emotionally, “Now that Hua Xianyuan is at the top of the Prodigy List, it’s enough to prove that his talent is extraordinary. In the future, he will definitely be a big shot that will shake the world. However, such a person was suppressed to the point where he didn’t shine at all ten years ago. Chu Yunfan is simply a monster!”
The young man was extremely shocked. Just Chu Yunfan’s many deeds were already legendary, not to mention that Chu Yunfan’s age should be considered a prodigy of this generation. He had used his astonishing talent to turn the tables and become the previous generation’s number one on the Prodigy List. This was the same as how he was supposed to turn the tables and become the current number one on the Prodigy List.
Just thinking about it, he knew how difficult it was. It was simply impossible. However, Chu Yunfan had done it. Such a person was indeed a legend.
“Back then, even Tang Siyu couldn’t compete with him?” the young man asked in disbelief.
In his impression, Tang Siyu was undoubtedly a legendary super genius. He grew up listening to many legendary stories about her. However, such a character was suppressed by Chu Yunfan when he was in power. The young man could hardly believe the difference.
“That’s right. Even though Tang Siyu has an emperor-level physique, she was still inferior to him. Hoxuvever, the two of them were dao companions, so they did not fight for the title. Later, someone said that Tang Siyu arrived first.
Even if Chu Yunfan was still around, he might not be able to suppress her. However, in the end, there was no way to prove it. After all, he is no longer around. No matter how convincing Tang Siyu’s supporters are, they have no way to prove it,” the middle-aged man said with a nod.
He was extremely emotional. Back then, Tang Siyu, who had an emperor-level physique, swept away all her peers. But in the end, she could only be ranked second in the world. It was not that Tang Siyu was not good enough, but that
Chu Yunfan was too monstrous.
All sorts of information about Tang Siyu had been made known to the public over the years. They knew that she had an emperor physique and that her talent was shocking. However, Chu Yunfan was different. He was too mysterious. Back then, they had guessed that he had an emperor physique, but now it was just a guess and could not be verified.
“You might not be able to imagine how powerful he is now, but you only need to know that Chu Hongcai’s current achievements are all because of his legacy,” the middle-aged man said.
After the young man digested the shock, he asked, “But since he’s so powerful, why haven’t I heard his name before? Where did he go? Did he die?”
How could he not have heard of such a powerful person since he was young? This was completely illogical. Even if he was active before he was born, as long as he was alive, there would always be news. It was impossible that there was no news at all..
