"This..." Gazing at the green glow, Situ Yu's face fell with deep disappointment. No matter how he thought about it, he could never have imagined that with his potential, he would only merit a low-grade talent.
As for this result, the six elders showed neither elation nor disappointment. Their emotions remained remarkably steady as they spoke in measured tones: "Low-grade talent. Next."
After that, several other Wing Alliance members stepped forward for their tests one after another. Though every one of them activated the green light, the intensity of the glow varied — but at least none of them produced the blazing radiance that Situ Yu had.
Watching this unfold, Situ Yu secretly rejoiced. At the very least, it proved that in terms of talent, he was superior to certain others. Meanwhile, the expressions on the six elders' faces had grown increasingly somber — they were clearly growing dissatisfied.
"Low-grade talent. Next."
Finally, it was
And indeed, once Su Mei stepped forward, the gazes of the six elders grew serious. After all, Su Mei was
*Whoosh* — a strand of Spiritual Energy was channeled in, and the yellow section erupted with a dazzling brilliance.
In that instant, Su Mei's tense heart immediately settled, replaced by boundless joy. The smile that bloomed across her face spoke volumes about just how happy she was.
"Not bad — medium-grade talent. And with such an intense glow, it seems your martial cultivation talent is even a bit better than your sister's."
After so many preceding participants whose talent ranged from mediocre to outright abysmal, Su Mei's result was undoubtedly a breath of fresh air. All six elders nodded repeatedly, and for the first time, satisfied smiles appeared on their faces.
Even Situ Yu and the others were impressed by Su Mei's talent. But beyond their admiration, Su Mei and everyone else turned their gazes toward
They were all eager to see what kind of talent this youth — who had only recently entered the Inner Sect and yet had rushed to participate in the Core Disciple Examination — actually possessed. Would he be on par with Su Mei, or would he recreate the legendary feats of
As for Chu Feng, he was brimming with confidence just the same. With an easy stride, he walked up to the Test Stone and pressed his powerful palm against it. With a single focused thought, a strand of Spiritual Energy flowed into it.
The moment the energy entered, everyone could feel the Test Stone shudder with a wave of fluctuation. But when that fluctuation subsided, the result left them all stunned speechless.
Not a single ray of light. Forget the red and yellow sections — even the green section showed not the slightest reaction. Chu Feng's Spiritual Energy had failed to activate even the faintest glimmer.
*Whoosh, whoosh*
Faced with this bizarre situation, Chu Feng furrowed his brow and channeled two more blasts of Spiritual Energy into the stone. But the result was the same — all three sections remained utterly dark.
"What the hell?" Chu Feng was at a complete loss. Was his talent really that awful? He couldn't even activate the weakest green section?
"This..."
Not just Chu Feng — even Su Mei, Situ Yu, and the others, who had placed absolute faith in Chu Feng, were thoroughly astonished. His demonstrated strength had already proven his martial cultivation talent, so how could this possibly be the outcome?
"With that level of strength, you somehow managed to pass the examination? It seems you must have used some sort of underhanded method." The old woman from earlier cast a look of contempt at Chu Feng.
"What exactly do you mean by that?" Hearing this, Chu Feng felt a stir of anger.
