"The earth element affinity level is Ding, and the comprehensive talent level is Ding. If you have the power of cultivation, you are not qualified to join the sect!"
"He has a low level of talent and a low level of comprehensive talent. He is not qualified to join the sect!"
"The fire element affinity is below C, the comprehensive talent is below C, and those with the power of cultivation are not qualified to join the sect!"
"..."
Those who are not qualified to join the sect are constantly irritating the young people in the crowd, making the young people's faces paler as they get closer to the testing platform.
"Grandpa, why don't we go back?" Tan Xiaoyu looked at the test platform getting closer and closer, and it was extremely difficult to see the jump on his body.
Tan Yun hadn't spoken yet, but Yiran was the first to speak:
"I've worn out so many pairs of straw sandals and endured so much hardship to get here, and the result is just the last step. Are you about to give up?"
Tan Xiaoyu held back the tears from the corners of his eyes and pursed his lips tightly without speaking.
This reminded Yiran of Yu Die who was timid but strong when he took part in the talent test in the Principality of Wind and Fire.
"You have to know that the eight hundred miles you have traveled are already a journey that many people in Taoyuan Village take a lifetime to complete, and you have already completed it at the age of thirteen!"
"Even if you don't have the talent for cultivation, you are still the most amazing person in Taoyuan Village."
"But what if you have the talent for cultivation? Then you can become the greatest pride of your parents and grandfathers, and even the pride of the whole village!"
Tan Xiaoyu was stunned by Yiran's words. He could only pull Tan Yun's clothes and look at his grandfather to ask for his help.
"Hey, hey, hey, the guy in front should leave quickly, there are still many people waiting for the test!"
Listening to the constant urging from behind, Tan Yun took Tan Xiaoyu's hand and led Tan Xiaoyu forward.
"Don't be afraid, Xiaoyu, grandpa is here. No matter whether you can stay or not, grandpa is your grandpa."
Looking at an old man and a young man in shabby clothes, urging voices kept echoing in their ears.
Even Yi Ran, who was walking beside them, suffered a disaster. He was constantly being ridiculed by people saying, "The guy with the wooden sword has the nerve to join the Luotian Sect!"
The noisy sound caused many teenagers who had already boarded the test platform to turn around, wanting to see who was too scared to move forward and who was pretending to be wearing a wooden sword.
Among them, only a young man in brocade robes did not look back. The middle-aged man beside him, who was not sure whether he was his father or a guard, also stared at him without moving.
The young man softly uttered the word "noisy", and the middle-aged man also gently responded with a "hmm".
However, neither the former nor the latter noticed it. Neither the disciples who maintained order nor the many older people on the test platform spoke to urge the three of them.
"Wind element affinity is above C, comprehensive talent is below B, and you are qualified to join the sect. Use this certificate to go to the sect and choose a faction."
"Both Gen Gu and B, comprehensive talents, are qualified to join the sect. Use this certificate to go to the sect and choose a faction on your own."
"Gengu..."
The test for several people has ended again, and some are still happy and some are sad.
Although cultivation talent is never determined by birth, a young man who has such an extraordinary demeanor and is protected by the Great Wuzong is always more eye-catching.
With a confident smile, the young man asked the elder who was testing his talent:
"Senior, what kind of talent do you need to enter the top ten factions?"
The elder looked at the young man in front of him with a meaningful look.
This is the first child today who dares to ask him questions without being stage frightened, but among all the children who have asked him questions in recent days, his tone is the loudest.
The elder in charge of the test looked back at the old men behind him who were looking very interested.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
They had no intention of speaking, so they spoke:
"Whether you can enter the top ten factions mainly depends on your fate, unless you have a stunning enough talent that can make the hearts of those behind me excited."
The young man thought to himself, "Are they the elders of the top ten factions?"
He asked brightly: "Senior, I wonder what kind of talent is needed to impress them?"
The young man who spoke reached out his hand to the talent test bead.
Following the boy's movements, the red elemental power on the test bead surged, almost completely dyeing the transparent bead red.
Young people are young people after all, and the pride in their hearts cannot be easily hidden.
Looking at the somewhat absent-minded old man, the young man said proudly: "My name is Ke Liang, I am Ke Shanshanliang from the Ke family in Sun Moon City."
"I'm different from those people. I've already done the talent test in my clan, and I should have reached the first level."
"Can such a talent impress those people and join their lineage?"
The corner of the test elder's mouth trembled a little. He had never heard of Ke Liang's name, but he had heard of the Ke family in Sun Moon City.
And even if he has no background, he will become a dazzling star of Luotian Sect in the future.
"The fire element affinity is level A, the comprehensive talent is level A, and the cultivation talent is superb. Please join the sect."
For a spiritual-level elder to say the word "please" shows the status this young man already has in his heart.
Ke Liang took the voucher and was about to walk into the mountain gate when all the old people behind the test elder stood up.
"Little friend Ke Liang, we at Pingnan Peak are looking forward to your arrival."
"Little friend Ke Liang, I, Luo Shuifeng, also look forward to your joining."
"Little friend Ke Liang..."
"Little friend Ke Liang..."
Eight blasts from Ke Liang made everyone on the test platform who was still climbing excited.
Being able to receive invitations from eight elders, needless to say, his talent is even more enviable.
Ke Liang looked at the two elders who still didn't get up, and finally didn't ask why.
"This disciple is willing to worship at Luoshui Peak!"
After a little thought, Ke Liang chose Luoshui Peak.
Because the middle-aged man next to him had already sent a message to him, telling Ke Liang that Luo Shuifeng was one of the top five factions.
The elder from Luoshui Peak nodded to Ke Liang and said:
"Ke Liang, your talent is not weak. After you join Luoshui Peak, you will receive careful guidance from the elders and even the peak master. You must cherish it!"
"Today's test is not over yet. You stand behind me and wait for the senior brothers and sisters from Luoshui Peak to come and take you back to the peak."
"You can also look at the talented children today who may become your competitors in the future."
Ke Liang nodded, bowed to the elder and said:
"Thank you, elder, for the tip."
…
…
After Ke Liang, the talent test returned to normal, and no monks with first-level evaluations appeared again.
The reason is that Yi Ran also knows that the first-level talent represents the promising talent, while the second-level talent represents the promising talent.
Although there are many talents and geniuses, there are very few geniuses. Sometimes one may not appear in a year.
But Ke Liang is already the third young man with the qualifications of a genius to join the Luotian Sect this year.
"Xiaoyu, it's your turn soon, just relax. Look at them, they just stretch out their hands and don't have to do anything!"
The old man Tan Yun held Tan Xiaoyu's hand tightly. Although he was comforting Tan Xiaoyu, he might not be less nervous than Tan Xiaoyu.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
"Xiaoyu knows it, Xiaoyu can definitely do it!"
Tan Xiaoyu looked at the straw sandals under his feet that had just been repaired yesterday and had their toes released again today.
I don’t know if I said this to my grandfather, or if I said it to myself.
Yiran bent down, tugged on Tan Xiaoyu's sleeve, and then pointed to the testing area on the other side.
"I think Xiaoyu can try the test over there. Although martial arts is more difficult, one step at a time is more practical."
Tan Yun looked sincerely at the young man who had taken great care of them these past few days, nodded and said to Tan Xiaoyu:
"We listen to your brother Yi!"
Yiran, who could run fast in the mountains and climb trees to hunt wild beasts and birds of prey for them, had already left an indelible mark on Tan Xiaoyu's heart.
Breaking free from Tan Yun's rough hands, Tan Xiaoyu took a deep breath and ran towards the testing place pointed by Yiran with his eyes closed.
Along the way, I almost bumped into other children, and almost fell down because my feet slipped. I kept saying "I'm sorry, I'm sorry" along the way.
The elder in charge of the test looked at the young man running towards him, his expression unwavering.
If he hadn't looked at the face of the guy across the wooden sword, he wouldn't have taken a second look at such an ordinary young man.
"Young man, just stand in the formation and hold on for a moment." The test elder said symbolically to Tan Xiaoyu.
Tan Xiaoyu walked into the formation in a daze.
This small formation, which can only accommodate one person, can see through a person's bones, and can also observe the instinctive reaction speed and endurance of the young people's bodies through the pressure exerted on them.
The former is a talent, and the latter is also a talent.
The moment Tan Xiaoyu walked into the formation, the formation was already in motion.
"One, two, three, four, five..."
When Yiran counted to twelve, Tan Xiaoyu finally walked out of the formation.
But what is different from everyone else is that others rarely take more than five breaths from entering to coming out, but Tan Xiaoyu lasted for a full twelve breaths.
So while others were relaxed and comfortable, stepping out of the formation before they had time to feel the pressure, Tan Xiaoyu's clothes were already wet with sweat.
Yiran looked at Tan Xiaoyu walking out of the formation with a smile, raised his right hand and gave Tan Xiaoyu a thumbs up.
Tan Xiaoyu looked at Yiran with a smile, then turned his gaze to his grandfather, and finally looked at the test elder who had not yet told the results.
The test elder who belatedly noticed his gaffe and said quickly: "Gen Gu B, comprehensive talent level A, and talent for cultivation, please enter the mountain gate."
Another shocking word "please".
And the boy's talent is obviously only B, but why is his comprehensive talent A?
Ke Liang also looked at Tan Xiaoyu with some confusion. Before the test, the latter was just a low-level person that he didn't even bother to take a look at.
The result was that such a test made him a genius with almost the same potential as himself.
Ke Liang looked at Tan Xiaoyu with eyes filled with fighting intent.
Ke Liang had already felt that somehow, this guy from a humble background would become his lifelong enemy.
After taking the voucher, Tan Xiaoyu jumped back to Tan Yun, as if everything he had just experienced was just an illusion.
"Grandpa, Xiaoyu doesn't need to go back. Xiaoyu can stay in Luotian Sect."
Listening to Xiaoyu's happy story, Tan Yun didn't know whether to be happy, congratulatory or sad.
Because Tan Yun understood that their grandfather and grandson would be separated soon, and he didn't know how long it would take to see each other again.
