"I happened to hear an esteemed senior mention it in passing."
"Entering the Wo Long Martial Sect isn't limited to being selected by the sect itself. If one is sufficiently talented, it's also possible to enter through a teleportation formation."
"And the name of that teleportation formation is the Wo Long Selection Formation."
Chu Feng did not tell the full truth, primarily because he didn't want to bring trouble to the old Daoist priest.
After all, this was the Wo Long Martial Sect — a place where experts gathered like clouds, unfathomably deep.
"Then what is the name of that senior you mentioned? Do you know?" Elder Duan asked.
"Meeting that senior was purely by chance, and we only knew each other for a very short time. I don't know much about that senior's background," Chu Feng said.
"Could it be someone from our Wo Long Martial Sect?" Elder Duan murmured thoughtfully, though he didn't suspect much. He then said, "The Wo Long Selection Formation does indeed exist."
"If someone manages to pass through the Wo Long Selection Formation, could it trigger a phenomenon in the sky?" Chu Feng continued to ask.
"According to our sect's records, if someone passes through the Wo Long Selection Formation, it does indeed trigger a phenomenon," Elder Duan confirmed.
"Senior, could what is happening in the sky right now not be a tribulation, but rather a phenomenon triggered by someone entering the Wo Long Martial Sect?" Chu Feng asked.
"Trying to be clever."
Hearing Chu Feng's words, Elder Duan sighed and shook his head, immediately denying Chu Feng's speculation.
"The phenomenon caused by the Wo Long Selection Formation is far more spectacular than what we're seeing right now."
"Moreover, no one has ever passed the Wo Long Selection Formation. If someone had, word would have spread throughout the entire Wo Long Martial Sect long ago. How could there be no news of it by today?" Elder Duan said.
"Since no one has ever passed it, how can Elder Duan be certain that the phenomenon in the sky isn't caused by the Wo Long Selection Formation?" Chu Feng asked politely.
"Because the sect's records were left behind by our founding ancestor. They cannot be wrong."
"Chu Feng, I can see that you're quite clever, but you'd do well to save that cleverness for things that matter. Don't go speculating about matters that have nothing to do with you."
"You need to undergo the sect's testing now. Only if your talent meets the requirements will you be allowed to remain at the Wo Long Martial Sect and study under a master."
"If you fail the test, your memory will be erased, your name will be written on the Wo Long Martial Sect's Discarded List, and you will never have another chance to join the sect for the rest of your life."
Elder Duan said.
Hearing these words, Chu Feng smiled faintly.
He hadn't been speculating blindly — he'd simply wanted to confirm from Elder Duan's mouth whether the phenomenon in the sky was connected to him.
As for the so-called talent test, Chu Feng had asked Elder Duan about it earlier. It was simply a straightforward talent evaluation.
Although the mysterious existence had already warned Chu Feng that his three souls and seven spirits being locked would affect all of his abilities, even so, Chu Feng felt that with his current capabilities, taking a talent test shouldn't result in failure.
After all, his three souls and seven spirits were still with him. Chu Feng understood his own condition well enough — causing any kind of disturbance at this point would be extremely difficult. But passing a talent test? That shouldn't be hard at all.
Following Elder Duan, Chu Feng soon arrived at a large plaza. The plaza was vast, and quite a crowd had already gathered upon it.
These juniors came from various backgrounds — there were even demon beasts among them. Some were brimming with confidence, while others were visibly nervous.
As for the elders, whether elderly or middle-aged in appearance, they all wore the same robes as Elder Duan. Those robes indeed had the effect of concealing one's cultivation level — Chu Feng couldn't see through any of the elders' cultivation.
Each elder was accompanied by at least one disciple, with some bringing as many as a dozen. Right now, these disciples were lining up to take the test.
