As soon as he finished speaking, Sun Jian reacted.
His eyes were still blank, but the expression on his face gradually became excited.
"It was more than twenty years ago. At that time, I was just an ordinary disciple. Because I was a branch and my talent was not high, everyone in the Sun family looked down on me!"
"I practiced day and night at that time, but my cultivation was much slower than those of my direct disciples who were just eating, drinking and having fun. If it were just that my talent was too low, I would have tolerated it."
"But! There are many of those direct disciples who are almost as talented as me, but their realm is still much higher than mine! That's entirely because the entire family's resources are tilted toward the direct line!"
"Whatever resources they want, the family will get them! But what about me?! I practice hard and work hard to complete the family's tasks, but I still can't get as many resources as a person who flatters and flatters the little manager!"
"But even so, I still didn't give up. I put all my hopes on the family selection! I believe that as long as I work hard enough, the family master will definitely see it!"
"As long as I can come out on top in the family selection, no, I don't even need to come out on top, as long as I can reach the top ten, I can become the servant of the family head."
"My biggest wish at that time was to become the servant of the family master, to be able to obtain some good cultivation resources, and to contribute to the Sun family."
Seeing Sun Jian's excited expression, Yang Tian raised his eyebrows slightly, feeling helpless in his heart.
When he heard this, he could already guess what would happen next.
This kind of family has always been about blood and relationships, but cultivation is really not that important.
Like Sun Jian did before, he just immersed himself in cultivation and did not socialize with others. He was already very unlovable. If he met another manager who liked to flatter him.
Then one can imagine his result.
This is indeed the case.
As soon as Yang Tian's thoughts flashed across his mind, Sun Jian spoke again, and this time, his eyes were filled with resentment.
"I worked so hard for that selection, but just the day before the selection, I was called out by the supervisor and ordered by her to do a task that would take at least half a month to complete."
"I desperately begged him to tell him that I wanted to participate in this selection, but he still rejected me! I will never be able to forget the look of his nostrils in the sky!"
"He uses the family to pressure me and the family rules to pressure me, as if the task I have to do now can even be related to the future of the Sun family."
"However, the funny thing is that this task is just for me to pick a relatively rare herb in the mountains. It is not certain whether this herb can be used."
"It's just that because it's relatively rare, it takes longer to pick and it will have some contribution points. Otherwise, no one will take it seriously at all."
"I really couldn't argue with the steward, so I had a big fight with him and rushed out of the door. I thought that as long as I could participate in this selection and get a ranking, it wouldn't matter if I offended him."
"But I never expected that I wouldn't even have a chance to be selected..."
Having said this, a strong bitterness flashed across Sun Jian's face.
"The next day, I received a notice that my qualification for selection was revoked. The reason was because I contradicted the steward. The family believed that a person like me who disobeyed orders was not suitable to be a servant of the family."
"After I received the order, I tried desperately to explain to them, but no one was willing to listen, and no one was willing to listen."
