Chapter 69: Assessment begins

Thinking of this, the Elder confidently stroked his beard.

This move demanded an extremely high level of control over Spiritual Qi.

It was almost impossible to master it within the time it took for one stick of incense to burn.

He would also appropriately extend the time, allowing the fastest learners among the Disciples to pass the assessment.

The Sima Family members lit a stick of incense, and then the participating Disciples buried their heads, each studying how to manipulate Spiritual Qi.

Then, the Elder scanned his surroundings, looking at everyone.

Immediately, his gaze fixed on one person in the field.

Unlike the others who were diligently practicing, Qin Xuan had his eyes tightly closed at this moment.

“Hmph, how arrogant. Does he really think my move is so simple to learn?”

The Elder sneered, having already concluded in his heart that this person was just putting on a show.

Just as he was about to shift his gaze, this person suddenly opened his eyes and confidently stepped forward.

Then he slowly raised his hand.

“What? Could it be that this kid really learned my move so quickly?”

A wave of surprise washed over the Elder’s heart.

Soon, he shook his head.

No, absolutely not!

He absolutely couldn’t have learned this move so easily!

Even a Genius Disciple of the Shindao Sect couldn’t learn this move in such a short time.

It must be for show!

Qian Feng, who was standing nearby, was the same; he frowned.

“People like this should be kicked out. What could he learn in such a short time? He’s just putting on a show to attract others’ attention.”

As they spoke, the young man in front of them had already assumed his stance.

“Hurry up and get out. If you can’t do it, then get out. Don’t waste time here…”

Qian Feng spoke coldly, but before he could finish his sentence, Qin Xuan instantly made his move.

“Whoosh!”

Five palms struck out rapidly, and then these five palm prints instantly overlapped in sequence.

“Boom!”

After these five palms superimposed, they directly smashed a large pit into the plaza in front.

Qian Feng’s words, which were on the tip of his tongue, were immediately swallowed.

He never expected that this kid in front of him would learn this move so quickly.

Not only him, but the examiner responsible for this round of assessment was also dumbfounded.

He never thought that this person would actually do it, and not be inferior to himself in the slightest.

The Elder shifted his gaze to the side; at this moment, only about ten percent of the stick of incense had burned down.

“A Genius, truly a Genius. This person must be taken into the Sect no matter what.”

The Elder said with some excitement.

He never expected that this kid in front of him would pass the assessment so easily.

And with this person’s Comprehension Ability, even those Core Disciples probably couldn’t compare to him.

“You passed!”

The Elder said to Qin Xuan.

Qin Xuan bowed to the other party, then walked to the side.

Looking at the stick of incense that had only half left, a smile appeared at the corner of Qin Xuan’s mouth.

Although his talent was good, it hadn’t reached the point of Heaven-Defying Comprehension Ability.

The reason he was able to comprehend how to control Spiritual Qi so quickly was because his Mental Energy had entered the Taihuang Space.

While only ten percent of the incense had burned in the outside world, he had already deduced it more than once with his Mental Energy in the Taihuang Space.

Using these repeated deductions, he quickly and skillfully mastered the method of controlling Spiritual Qi with these five palms.

If he hadn’t been afraid of being too fast and drawing too much attention, he could have finished earlier.

But even so, this result was already sensational.

Qian Feng at the side was speechless at this moment.

Several times he wanted to speak, but looking at the large pit in the plaza, he couldn’t say anything.

After all, Qin Xuan had demonstrated this move in front of everyone.

He couldn’t possibly say that this Outer Sect Elder had deliberately leaked the question in advance, could he?

Although he was an Inner Sect Disciple, he didn’t dare to casually offend an Inner Sect Elder.

Under these circumstances, he could only awkwardly remain silent.

“Damn it!”

Liu Yiyi on the other side clenched her fists at this moment.

She had smoothly received Qian Feng’s recommendation spot, so she naturally didn’t need to participate in this kind of assessment and directly got the chance to participate in the formal selection.

This was the result she hated the most.

She felt very uncomfortable just seeing Qin Xuan doing well.

As Qin Xuan walked to the side, everyone around him cast envious and astonished glances at Qin Xuan.

Qin Xuan’s performance was too outstanding, which made them seem very poor in comparison.

But in reality, it wasn’t that they were too bad, but that Qin Xuan was too strong.

As most of the incense stick burned down, the second person to pass the assessment appeared.

“Boom!”

Qin Xuan turned his gaze to the other side of the plaza, only to see Lu Peng, who had Barbarian Bloodline, grinning and also completing the move.

This greatly surprised everyone present.

If the strength of the ancient barbarians lay in their excellent Physical Body quality, then normally, their intelligence would appear to be much lower.

Similarly, most people assumed Lu Peng was not good at delicate tasks like controlling Spiritual Qi.

But to everyone’s surprise, this Lu Peng’s Comprehension Ability was so strong that he could reach such a level in controlling Spiritual Qi.

He completed the learning in just over half the time it took for a stick of incense to burn.

This Lu Peng is not simple.

Qin Xuan pondered in his heart.

Strong Physical Body, and crucially, such strong Comprehension Ability.

Qin Xuan took a deep breath.

He relied on the Taihuang Space to complete the comprehension so quickly.

But this Lu Peng was able to complete the comprehension in such a short time.

His Comprehension Ability could be said to be extremely excellent.

This changed his stereotype of barbarians as muscular and simple-minded.

After all, Cultivators with Barbarian Bloodline were often those brutes who only knew how to use brute force.

But this ‘brute’ in front of him was different from those barbarians.

After a moment of astonishment, the others immediately began to intensely study with their heads down.

“Hey, I just saw you were the first to finish. You’re really amazing!”

Lu Peng said, while reaching out to scratch his head, looking a bit foolish.

However, Qin Xuan didn’t think this person was a fool.

Such Comprehension Ability didn’t seem like a fool’s.

The real fool is the one who treats others as fools.

“With your strength, you will definitely pass the final assessment. Since we are both Disciples participating in the assessment from Fire Wind City, we will definitely participate in the formal selection. Should we form an alliance?”

Lu Peng enthusiastically greeted Qin Xuan.

The Azure Green Sect was a Great Sect of the Profound Dragon Dao, and there would certainly be many people participating in the selection then, so having an ally would be good.

Thinking of this, Qin Xuan was somewhat moved and was about to agree to the other party.

The moment their gazes met, a strange light flashed in Lu Peng’s eyes.

Qin Xuan only felt a blur before his eyes, and his entire being almost lost control.

“Buzz!”

Just then, the Refining God Cauldron in his chest suddenly vibrated, instantly clearing Qin Xuan’s mind.

He immediately became alert, stepping back a few paces to put distance between himself and the other party.

“No need, let’s each rely on our own abilities.”

Qin Xuan said indifferently, then turned and walked to the other side.

Watching Qin Xuan leave, the smile on Lu Peng’s face gradually disappeared, replaced by a hint of coldness.

“You refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit. You don’t know what’s good for you!”
