Chapter 509 - Team Up (1/2)

“Next,” the senior disciple said again. Seeing Xiao Chen standing still, he frowned slightly, seemingly to be a little impatient.

“Oh.” Xiao Chen came back to his senses. At this moment, he had already thought of a solution, but he didn’t know if it was useful. Without haste, he calmly walked up to them. Meanwhile, his Divine Sense had probed into the inside of the Spiritual Meridian Test Stone.

After that, he put one palm on the palm print just as normally like others, but the Spiritual Meridian Test Stone made no response. In fact, as he had expected, the Spiritual Meridian Test Stone could not show light beams quickly once it detected something strange about his Spiritual Meridians.

At this point, Xiao Chen immediately injected a stream of Mystic Power into the Spiritual Meridian Test Stone. With his current cultivation and Divine Sense, he could trick a small Spiritual Meridian Test Stone without anybody knowing it.

By using the Mystic Power, he quickly sealed the 12 small channels leading to the top of the Spiritual Meridian Test Stone. Then, a burst of spirit energy rushed out from each of his five fingers, went through the channels above, and turned into five beams of light. Of course, they were fakes, though the five beams of light were indeed pure white. Seeing such an amusing scene, everyone around couldn’t repress their smiles, and eventually, they all burst into laughter.

At this moment, the faces of the two Elders who were in charge of the Spiritual Meridian Test became extremely ugly. They thought, “He only has five Spiritual Meridians. Well, it is no big deal, but these five beams of light with different lengths and thicknesses are not the same at all. They simply look like clowns among all the other Spiritual Meridians.”

“He… His Spiritual Meridians are excessively short and small. Hahaha!” Finally, some people couldn’t help bursting their sides with laughter. They had no malicious intentions. It was just that these five uneven and short light beams of Spiritual Meridians looked really funny.

Some young girls also stared at the five light beams on the Spiritual Meridian Test Stone as if they were looking at something fresh and interesting. They covered their mouths with smiles and said, “They are indeed small and short. I’ve never seen such short and small Spiritual Meridians before. Puff!”

These girls were somewhat pure, so they didn’t understand the hidden meaning in the “short and small” said by those male disciples when they teased Xiao Chen. Therefore, the girls didn’t blush a little when they repeated these words.

But being a quite bashful man, Xiao Chen felt a little embarrassed at the moment. He exerted more strength and rose the five beams of light a little higher. However, because his spirit energy was unstable, these beams kept flickering, which made more people laugh out loud. “Look! They can even dance. Haha!”

This time, all the people here roared with laughter. Even the two Elders ran the Spiritual Meridian Test, who originally wore ugly looks, felt a little amused. They had never seen such funny Spiritual Meridians after living so many years.

But the senior disciple next to the Spiritual Meridian Test Stone, who was in charge of the Spiritual Meridian Test, did not laugh. He looked serious and said, “Well, Junior Brother, you can go down…” “Puff!” In the end, he could no longer hold back his laughter and burst with laughing, holding his sides.

After laughing for a while, he looked up again and said seriously, “Sorry, I mean no harm. You can go down…” At the end of his words, he almost burst into tears because of trying not to laugh.

Xiao Chen frowned a little. “Am I that funny? Are these people out of their minds?” Just as he was about to leave, the Elder on the left suddenly stopped him. “Wait, show me your jade note of place in the academy.”

Obviously, this Elder began to doubt if Xiao Chen got his place by some dishonest means.

Helplessly, Xiao Chen took out the jade note and handed it to him. After the Elder felt the information in it for a while, a strange look flashed in his eyes. Then he returned the jade note to Xiao Chen and said, “All right. You can go back now.”

Xiao Chen walked back to the crowd and looked at Chu Qi next to him. He frowned and asked, “Is it that funny?”

Chu Qi was still expressionless and remained silent, standing there still like an iceberg. However, after a while, she couldn’t help laughing a little. A trace of smile flashed across her face, but the next moment, she became an iceberg again.

Xiao Chen was instantly stunned. “I made this icy beauty smile a little. It seems that I performed successfully.” Not far away, Jiang Qianqian’s eyebrows were slightly furrowed. She thought to herself, “He has the cultivation of the Nirvana Realm. How is it possible that he only has five Spiritual Meridians?”

After the Spiritual Meridian Test, the more than five hundred new disciples followed their Senior Brother to the next location. Before the gorge, there were only two Elders who were in charge of the test left. The Elder on the left side frowned deeply and said, “I just found out that the information in his jade note was left behind by Perfected Immortal Chongyang. That is to say, Perfected Immortal Chongyang selected Xiao Chen.”

“Is that true?” The Elder on the right was clearly very surprised. He muttered to himself, “How could the Perfected Immortal Chongyang choose this person with such a poor aptitude?”

“That’s why I found it very strange.” With this, the Elder on the left looked at the Spiritual Meridian Test Stone. “There shouldn’t be any problems with the Spiritual Meridian Test Stone…”
