Two hours later, the Shen family's team arrived in front of the Jian Tower without incident. The three stand-ins prepared by Shen Fan were not used.
As the morning hour approaches, the fairy seedlings sent by cultivating families from all over the country are also arriving one after another, forming a long queue in the open space in front of the sword tower.
On both sides of the open space, at the entrance of the Sword Tower, stood the elders from various sects who came to recruit disciples. Whenever a disciple failed the examination and was kicked out of the gate of the Sword Tower, they would immediately gather around to recruit them.
The seedlings who can enter the Sword Tower's examination are at worst middle-grade spiritual roots, and the Ten Thousand Meridians Sword Sect looks down upon them, but in their eyes they are just as delicious.
"Another one comes out!"
"Step aside!"
"You Shuanghua Sect went too far! You snatched two of them in one go..."
"fart!"
"..."
Chen Fan glanced at the sect elders who were quarreling with each other at the entrance of the sword tower, then turned around and ordered: "Everyone with spiritual roots of middle grade or above, go and line up."
The disciples of the Shen family agreed, and Xiang Shu and the other three girls also got off the carriage and lined up at the end of the queue.
Chen Fan took a deep look at Xiang Shen, but his eyes did not dare to stay on her for too long. He was about to take everyone aside to wait, but when he turned around, he saw the head of the Wu family looking at him with a smile not far away.
"The joke has been going on for two months, but this old guy really doesn't take me seriously anymore?"
Chen Fan secretly sneered in his heart, but it didn't show any of it on the outside. Instead, his face was full of gloom, as if he didn't want anyone to get into trouble.
Seeing this, the head of the Wu family could not help but smile even more.
A confidant next to him said, "Master, Chen Fan was ill and rushed to seek medical treatment. Now his face looks so bad. It seems that it is ineffective."
The head of the Wu family smacked his lips, "Finding a high-grade spiritual root from a mortal is the same as reaching the sky in a single step. This Shen Fan... usually seems difficult to deal with, but now it seems that he is just like that."
"The master of the house is wise!"
"..."
When the Sword Tower was opened, more than 300 people from nearby towns came to test their spiritual roots. However, there was a lot of water among them, and only one tenth of them could actually win the favor of the Sword Tower.
Ninety percent of the seedlings wanted to take advantage of the Sword Tower's power to enter other sects, so the team moved forward very quickly.
In less than a quarter of an hour, it was the turn of the Shen family.
The head of the Wu family said he didn't care, but when he actually saw it, he perked up and looked at it intently.
Chen Fan also stared at the door of the sword tower with burning eyes, clenching his fists secretly.
Although he knew that with Shen Xiang's spiritual roots, it would be easy to pass the sword tower test, he was still nervous.
It was also his first time to send a disciple to the Ten Thousand Meridians Sword Sect.
A total of thirty-seven people from the Shen family came to take part in the sword tower assessment and entered the sword tower one after another.
"Unqualified, next one!"
"Unqualified, next one!"
"Unqualified!"
"..."
The first thirty-six, without exception, were all in and out quickly, and then they were selected by small and medium-sized sects outside the door.
When the head of the Wu family saw this scene, he felt happy.
"Next!"
There was a shout from the sword tower, and there was a trace of impatience in the voice.
Although for the sake of territorial development, the Ten Thousand Meridians Sword Sect tacitly allowed each cultivation family to borrow the sword tower and send their disciples to other sects, it was undoubtedly a waste of time for Li Wansheng who came here.
The list of qualified fairy seedlings was sent to him as early as two months ago. Those thirty-six immortal seedlings have also been sent to the spiritual pool to refine their physical bodies in advance. Now they are just going through the motions to open a convenient door for other sects.
Occasionally, high-grade fairy seedlings that are not on the list will be detected, but the probability is too low. Even if the sword tower is opened ten times, you may not encounter one.
Li Wansheng was assigned to this boring place, but he didn't think he was very lucky, and naturally he had no hope.
So Xiang Sheng stepped into the threshold of the sword tower, looked up and saw Li Wansheng with a foul face, pointing to the side to test the spirit beads, and said coldly: "Go over."
Xiang Shen turned his eyes and glanced at the layout of the building, and found that it was the same as the last time he came here.
Almost no change.
On the huge first floor, there is only a set of simple tables and chairs. The only difference is the spirit-measuring beads placed in the open space not far away.
The real assessment is not here?
"Why are you so stunned?!"
Li Wansheng scolded him coldly, "Didn't your elders teach you how to use spirit-detecting beads?"
Xiang Shen didn't say anything, turned his eyes away, walked quickly to the spirit test bead, and put his palms on it.
The next moment, the spirit-testing orb burst out with a burst of purple light, almost blinding Li Wansheng.
Then there was only a "bang" sound, and this mid-grade spirit test bead worth tens of thousands of spirit stones exploded into a pile of fragments.
Li Wansheng stared at the innocent-looking Xiang Sheng blankly. After a long time, he came back to his senses, his eyes full of shock.
The medium-grade test spirit bead exploded...super-grade spiritual root?
A super-grade spiritual root actually appeared in this small border town? !
Senior brother was still telling him yesterday that the quality of this batch of fairy seedlings was generally low, and even there was only one super-grade spiritual root...
This one on his side is the second one?
Developed!
Li Wansheng became excited, and his cold face immediately disappeared, like spring breeze turning into rain, it could not be softer.
"Little junior sister."
He took three steps and two steps at a time, walked up to Xiang Shen, and asked softly: "What is your name?"
"Shen Xiang." Xiang Shu responded obediently.
Li Wansheng immediately burned his name into the jade slip, then waved it in front of Xiang Shen, "But these two words."
Xiang Shu shook his head and said, "I can't read."
"What?"
Li Wansheng's eyes widened slightly. Fairy seedlings cultivated by the Xiuzhen family should go to private schools at the age of three. How come there are still some who are illiterate?
"Which family are you from?" he asked next.
"The Shen family."
Li Wansheng nodded and waved his sleeves to create a whirlpool, "Little junior sister, I will take you to a safe place first.
After you go in, wait where you are. After you finish your work here, I will personally take you to take the sect assessment. "
Xiang Shu saw the whirlpool and understood in his heart.
It turns out that the assessment is in Fangcunji.
She said no more, stepped into the whirlpool and disappeared.
As he walked towards Shu, Li Wansheng's smile suddenly faded away and he turned around and walked out the door.
At this moment, there were many whispers outside the sword tower.
"The last girl in the Shen family went in, why can't she come out?"
"what happened?"
"Is it possible that you're attracted to it?"
"..."
The head of the Wu family stood in the crowd, looking at the door of the Jianlou where no one had appeared for a long time, and his face became increasingly ugly.
Seeing this, a confidant quickly said: "Master, don't think too much about it. Maybe the Shen family doesn't understand the rules and has offended Senior Brother Li?"
As soon as these words came out, the head of the Wu family suddenly looked much better, but when he saw the smile on Shen Fan's face now, he felt something bad in his heart.
He hesitated and was about to go over to explore the other party's background when he saw Li Wansheng coming out of the sword tower and said loudly: "Is the head of the Shen family here? Come and talk."
The head of the Wu family was excited and quickly went to see Shen Fan. As expected, he saw Shen Fan squeeze out of the crowd with an excited look on his face.
Looking at Li Wansheng again, there was a smile on his face when he saw Shen Fan coming forward.
"Is this what you call offending?"
The head of the Wu family glanced coldly at his confidant, who suddenly broke out in a cold sweat: "Head...the head of the family..."
"Find out the identity of that girl as soon as possible. If you can't figure it out, come to see her!"
After saying these words, the head of the Wu family tossed his sleeves and left angrily.
At the same time, Shen Fan had been invited to the sword tower by Li Wansheng.
Shen Fan was not surprised when he didn't see Xiang Sheng. He hugged Li Wansheng and took the initiative to say: "Xiang'er is an orphan adopted by my Shen family. Half a month ago, the housekeeper saw her begging on the street. I couldn’t bear it, so I brought it back.”
"No wonder she can't read."
Li Wansheng suddenly realized that he
During this period of time, he was practicing behind closed doors in Jianlou. He didn't know anything about the Shen family.
But half a month... the time was so short. It was not the first time for him to recruit disciples. He could more or less guess what methods the Shen family used, and he didn't care.
As long as Shen Xiang wasn't forcibly snatched away from his family, everything would be fine.
Thinking of this, Li Wansheng took out the engraved jade plaque and showed it to Chen Fan, "But these two words?"
Chen Fan took a closer look and nodded repeatedly, "Exactly."
Li Wansheng hummed, put away the jade token, and asked, "You adopted her as your adopted daughter?"
"Don't dare! Just change your surname to Shen."
Shen Fan immediately shook his head and said: "With Xiang'er's qualifications, she will definitely fly into the sky if she joins the noble sect. To be honest, my Shen family doesn't have much affection for her. As long as we have a little bit of fate, we will be satisfied." , how dare you impose cause and effect?"
Li Wansheng looked satisfied when he heard this.
"You are self-aware, what kind of talent is the super-grade immortal seedling? Not to mention your Shen family, even I have to climb high. By doing this, you have truly grasped this opportunity."
As soon as these words came out, Shen Fan, who was still listening respectfully, was dumbfounded, "What the hell?"
Li Wansheng looked strange, "Shen Xiang has a super-grade spiritual root, don't you know?"
Super spiritual root? !
Shen Fan took a breath of air. These four big characters were like a huge piece of pie falling from the sky, making him dizzy.
Seeing his confused expression, Li Wansheng couldn't help but laugh, "It seems you really don't know."
Shen Fan came back to his senses and looked embarrassed: "Senior Brother Li, you don't know something. My Shen family is small and how can I afford a middle-grade spirit-testing bead? Xiang'er broke a low-grade spirit-testing bead, so I treated her as a top-grade one. Spiritual roots..."
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter."
Li Wansheng smiled and waved his hand: "Now that we understand the matter, I should continue to ask people to take the test. When the junior sister gets started, I will personally go to your house to give you a big gift."
Chen Fan was overjoyed and said hurriedly: "That little man won't disturb Senior Brother Li from doing his business."
Li Wansheng nodded gently and watched Shen Fan leave before continuing to shout in a good mood.
"Next!"
However, it was said that not long after Xiang Shu entered the whirlpool, he appeared on a platform on the top of a mountain. .br>
The platform was a hundred feet in diameter. Xiang Shen landed on an edge. With a cursory glance at the center of the platform, he saw no less than a thousand people.
Most of them are teenagers and girls, with only a few young children.
In addition to the immortal seedlings who participated in the sect's assessment, there were also many recruited disciples such as "Li Wansheng" on the platform. They stood around the immortal seedlings they had selected, their expressions were calm and calm, making it difficult to tell the truth.
While Xiang Shu was observing the platform, many people nearby also noticed Xiang Shu.
Seeing her arriving alone, I felt a little weird.
The threshold for recruiting apprentices has been lowered a lot this year. Even in a remote place, there won't be only one qualified person, right?
I don’t know which junior brother or sister is so unlucky...
Everyone wanted to think about it, but no one came to ask.
Xiang Shu was so happy that he stayed where he was for half an hour and finally saw Li Wansheng hurried over with a group of fairy seedlings, protecting Xiang Shu by his side like an old hen.
