Chapter 3: The Test Of Entering Divine Gate (2/2)
”It is said she taught herself to gather nimbus when she was 10 She must possess a spiritual root”
”Anyone with a spiritual root has the ability to become an Immortal How lucky she is!”
shi+ao Chen listened to these whispers and concluded that the Test seemed to concern only the spiritual root, not the physical fitness at all He secretly felt relieved a bit He would have no chance if the Test was all about physical fitness, but the fact that irls had failed made him worried What on earth was a spiritual root, which seemed so rare?
”Spiritual root of wooden attribute! Excellent talent! Great! Great! Great!” The old reat joy and surprise
shi+ao Chen was interrupted fro He raised his head and happened to see that Ji Yueithdrew her hands, so calo to the right I'll take you to see our Chief Master after this” The old htened, which softened his voice when he opened his ht with her head lifted high in the ad to the ed and his voice sounded orous than before
It took another 15 minutes to finish the tests of the rest candidates except shi+ao's A boy and a girl passed the Test besides Ji Yuewu, but their spiritual roots were not as good as hers judging from the normal reaction of the old man Even so, they still attracted admiration from those who failed
”Next!”
The first candidate from shi+ao's clan was no other than shi+ao Lin, as the oldest son of the Patriarch He straightened his clothes, bowed to the old reat anticipation
The old man did not even look, and he just closed his eyes after he held shi+ao Lin's hands Soon he shook his head ”No spiritual root Fail”
shi+ao Lin's face turned pale and then regained a little bit red after he reift
”Iift when I left home Please do me a favor for the sake of it” Before the oldfroreat care
A sneer played on the old h above the ive to catch his eyes? Still he opened the bag and saw a black stony thing
”Iron Essence!” The old htened He held it in his hands and carefully examined it for a while His joy increased This Iron Essence was so pure, enough for him to refine a spiritual weapon when he advanced to the late phase of the Foundation Establishment
”Hm! I'll take it, and I'll accept you as a nominal disciple for its sake If you do well, you'll have the opportunities to become a formal disciple” The old e bag before others could notice
”A nominal disciple?” Shaio Lin found it hard to believe
”You have a problem with that?” The old man lowered his voice and asked
”No, no How dare I? Master, please allow round and bowed
”Eht” The old man nodded his head unsatisfactorily
”Aye” The ad eyes from the others instantly swept away shi+ao Lin's discontent of being a noht
”Next!”
……
”Next!”
……
Soon, everyone from shi+ao's clan had taken the Test except shi+ao Chen, but no one was found to have the spiritual root
”It has been 300 years Not a single candidate fro like a great faest to the Chief Master to disqualify them” The old man muttered in secret, and then raised his voice impatiently
”Last one!”
shi+ao Chen was the last candidate He went forith great hope The anticipating eyes and the humiliation his father suffered to win hier
”Please! Please!”
A lance at him ”No spiritual root Not qualified!”
Every word thundered in his ears and ht of his father His head was spinning, and he nearly fell on the ground under the gloating stars of others All he could think of was how to tell his father that he failed!
To fight for his candidacy, his father had broken his vows and suffered a lot, but in the end he failed!
