Lol, the action is so silly in this show.

Oobu continuously tries to show off her presence. A nice little overview of the show's characters at the end though at what they've been doing up to this point. But really, the comedy tries far too hard imo. I hope it improves.

The only funny thing about this anime is how bad it is. More characters at the end, let's see where they go with this.

so the almighty Reiken faction picked
a bumbling fatass
a hermaphroditic little backstabber and
an arrogant ass
as their disciples.

I'm appalled at the lack of common sense. I'm trying really hard to like this, but this is getting ridiculously stupid. It's one thing to have cringeworthy humor, but if the running gag gets to the point that it's messing with the story (aka the old fart refuses to wear glasses, and somehow mistook the backstabbing little squirt as the one who stayed in the VIP room over the MC) then that's where the line gets drawn.

Just plain annoying when the entire cast had been riding off the back of MC for the entire exam, and it's obvious to anyone that he's the only person capable of anything, but gets reduced to "a rarest of souls... with only collector value". The whole setting is backwards as fuck.

Indeed, these are my thoughts as well.

I'm trying to like it as well, but I got annoyed for the same reasons you did. I really thought the chosen ones for sure would be the fat guy (because of the OP) and the MC along with his other loyal friend. And it was disappointing to watch the real selection and to realize why the MC was left out. It was like if they were scratching the bottom of the barrel to pick the worse people on purpose and if that faction is supposed to be some sort of Guardians keeping the country safe, these decisions might have negative repercusions for their future.

I'd have liked to watch the MC taking revenge against these guys though, perhaps would be more interesting to watch him and his forces assault the place.

the MC wasn't mainly chosen because he has a special even a legendary constitution that is almost impossible to cultivate or develop since the the only known person who was known to have it was a really famous legend and I think the method for cultivation was loss or doesn't exist so even if it was special no faction is willing to spend time, effort and money/treasures to try and to develop such talent, at first they were asking the MC if he wanted to be the clan mascot atleast since he indeed has a legendary constitution atleast even though he can't cultivate but because the lady innkeeper who happens to be the patriarch's daughter gave him the coin which is special and allowed him to request anything from the patriarch he asked to become a true disciple which led to him becoming the student of the lady elder which if i'm not mistaken is the 2nd or 3rd strongest in the clan but has a position of 5th elder and considered as a failure of an elder but since she is rather strong they really can't do much about it.
As for MC 1st friend the reason he was not accepted was because his talent or potential will be much appreciated in a another faction/clan that's why he was recommend to go to the said clan which i forgot the name of.
As for MC servant, fatso, and asswipe they where accepted as inner disciple but i think is assigned to an elder which i think is a little bit higher than and ordinary inner disciple not sure though because they have atleast an above average talent/potential and if i'm not mistaken their talent rank asswipe > servant=fatso
And if your wondering how significant it is for the MC to be a true disciple a simple breakdown of clan positions
Patriarch
Elder (every elder if i'm not mistaken can have 2 or 5? true disciple which would be considered as there potential successor)
True Disciple (granted lots of leeway in the clan especially if their master is strong or is high ranked can pretty much do anything they want)
Inner Disciple
Outer Disciple
you can pretty much determine there position from the colored stripe of their robes red = true disciple
brown i think for inner disciple assigned to an elder or just inner disciple as for the blue not sure if its outer disciple or ordinary inner disciple

Yeah MC is ranked way higher although he is somewhat bullied or belittled by others especially the asswipe dude since technically whatever the MC's position is he won't be able to cultivate easily even though MC can retaliate through his position as True Disciple he doesn't do it since he still has his pride.
Anyways although I really haven't read much of the novel since i'm reading another novel at the moment i think the novel especially since the MC is still weak will revolve in him using his wit and intelligence to dominate others

This type of starting plot who has an MC with exemplar talent/physique yet somehow cannot utilize it is one of the most common used in XanXia and XuanHuan genre along side MC zero talent/physique who somehow encountered an amazing treasure, sometimes they also mix both of this

^What y'all said. Ridiculous.

Doesn't help that the art and subs suck (sorry subbers, i still appreciate your effort)

Oriku should have requested they reselect or at least kick out Ochuu (petty i know, but serves him damn right, the little bitch)

But more importantly it bothers me how these kids are supposed to be under 13 and yet these elders are checking them out and there's all these innuendos.

finally a major setback for this over the top all rounder MC. I mean seriously I love OP characters and characters who just about get everything going for them but when they are presented to be too perfect and as if every thing falls into place just like they expected it to be and nothing goes out of there calculations or whatever and they always win or get what they want, it gets really boring and this was going down the road to being one of those type of stories.
When I saw the creators kept making the MC to always be on the wining end I say to my self "ether their building him up on unstable foundation so he can fall harder and rise even higher then he suppose to or they or just being idiots and just want to try making a perfect character" which I'm glad they were doing the first :) tho I think it's kinda stupid how they let him win almost all the time even gain the most points and as we saw by their reactions showed the most potential. but at the end of the day they just trow him away like over use gum and pick even a douche bag of a slave who even laugh at his old master not being chosen I mean seriously I can understand if he was the type of slave who was treated badly and oppress by his master but he was always treated good from what we saw and as a friend but yet he's all bitchie now.
Tho I have to say the route there going is really typical that I watch it so much that I can practically tell whats going to happen next (wont cause if I do some one may say I'm spoiling tho it's just my own smart speculation that ended up coming true). Oh and just so you know I wrote this after they made the decision for the 3 disciples I pause it so I haven't see his reaction or what happen next so lets just say this is my thoughts from the first 12min or so of the episode.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is an edit after watching the rest of the episode :
So your they complete made a mc like how I thought he would be over power, super rare no one can train him. which means he would most likely have to find a training method along the road. also I almost dead when I found out he only choose the slave boy (can't remember his name so I nick name him slave boy due to my dislike of him) because he thought he was the recommended one and as we saw the slave boy gloating before it will really be funny when he joins the school and falls behind and later find out he has no talent and sucks and that they made a mistake when choosing him. I really hope this happens

But even tho I Can just about tell where this is heading I'm still going to watch it cause it isn't bad so if I rate it out of a 5 I would give this show a 4 and this episode a 3.5 the episode turn out how I expected so not much surprise feeling but I enjoy it still so no complains

When you and your former scumbag slave name start with "O" and the announcer gives you an suspenseful moment where everyone thought you'd be picked, but it was your former scumbag slave, so now, as the MC, you're mindfucked at the results.

Too much Ou.

Darn. I liked Kal. Wished he was picked. Hopefully, we'll see him again.

My waifu, Rei, returns in all her glory. Hope Oriku ends up with her.

A couple of fine looking females appear.

Oh, this episode is already starting with the theme song. Danggg.

Oriku defeats the huge elephant thing, his weapon is broken, and the world gets back to a sunny atmosphere. Obu appears and is saddened that the sword is broken. Then goes around and tries to steal some money. Girl has lost herself. There are so many contestants left now. DANG. FIFTEEN. Whelp. Thanks to Oriku and his overpowered sword. I wonder how much these people get paid. The girls in here seem to be shameless. HAHAHA.

I really like the character designs, though. They are all pretty nice looking.

All fifteen contestants are in this hall and they're only going to be choosing three. I'm guessing that the three will be Kai, Oriku, and Shushin.

HAHAHA. I really like Rei, man.

BOOM. SHUSHIN. OH. Bunho got the second pick. WHAT> THIRD IS OCHU. wtf. I only had one of those correct. OF COURSE, the anime is going to go and be like, PSYCH.

HAHAHA. Kai and Oriku are told why they didn't get picked and, at first, Oriku is quick to show up a certain Taikon technique but then is told that he can join them as their lucky charm and he immediately falls into it. Then we see why Ochu was chosen. HAHA. The chief totally thought that Ochu was the one who stayed at the VIP room. Well, he did sort of but it was really Oriku.

That coin that Oriku possess gives him any wish but all of his wishes are shot down by the chief. HAHA. Hmm. I wonder what's going to happen now. Kai went to Manpo sect to get a job, Oriku is alone, and the three chosen guys are now in the inner sect. AT LEAST OCHU CAN BE WITH THAT DARN SHUSHIN. MAN. It already feels like this anime is ending for some reason.

The only thing now is that Oriku could possibly be taken in by Obu because she's the only one left with,really, no responsibilities.

I was thrilled that I would take Obu's hand and his wife would do it, and it was not like that. Well, sure something happens between the two of them, it seems that woman is a bit perverted and does not mind showing off her titanic titties (and ass)

Pretty bad for the action. Is he using cheat? lol one hit. The mechanism just like in game. Got a drop, fight boss and win. Comedy in this episode not bad, as always Ouriku do nothing. He did for all the contestant but lol that coin save him and this is the reason he keep the coin.
