133 Spirit Cauldron (2/2)

Xiao Fang noticed the Supreme elder looking at him. He knew that she was probably curious about him, but he decided to remain silent.

Before Xiao Hei looked at Xiao Fang, the supreme elder had actually forgotten about Xiao Fang. He didn't have an aura at all, it was almost as if he wasn't even there.

Every cultivator is capable of suppressing their aura, but it gets increasingly difficult to hide it from cultivators with a higher cultivation realm.

The supreme elder was in a bit of a daze. She was at the 3rd stage of the Divine Spirit realm. It should've been extremely difficult for anyone under the Profound Spirit realm to hide their cultivation from her, but not only was she unable to detect it, she couldn't even feel a hint of his spirit cultivation at all. There was only one explanation she could think of.

'Hmm, but how could he make it past the maze without any spirit comprehension?' she thought.

She then remembered the amiable look Xiao Hei gave him.

'I see. So that little girl must've helped him.'

After that thought crossed her mind, she remembered his perfect clone. His clone was so perfect, not even she was able to distinguish the clone from the real body. Putting two and two together, she eventually came to the conclusion that it was impossible for a disciple to make a clone as good as that, so she started to suspect him of cheating.

Since she believed he cheated his way here, she wanted to see how he was going to cheat his way out of the spirit cauldron space. If Xiao Fang really had no spirit cultivation as she suspected, then he would suffer miserably inside of the spirit cauldron space.

Even though the supreme elder wasn't showing any emotion on her face, Xiao Fang could still hear her heart change paces a few times. He didn't understand what she was thinking, but whatever it was it didn't worry him.

The elder finally looked back at the cauldron and was shocked by what she saw. The first light was already shining around the cauldron.

'It seems she's already passed the first stage. She's quite the talent one,” the supreme elder thought out loud.

Just as those words escaped her lips, the 2nd light appeared.

”This...”

Although the supreme elder was amazed, it wasn't something she hadn't seen before. In fact, this kind of speed was only a bit faster than the average tiger class disciples. The reason she was amazed at all was because this was only her first time doing it.

”Good, hahaha, very good! A talent like her might even be able to reach the Dragon class in just a few years,” the supreme elder once again said her thoughts out loud.

Although they were all inner court disciples, there was a huge disparity between each class of disciples. The disciples in the Insect class were as insignificant as ants, while those in the Tiger, Phoenix, and Dragon classes were held in high esteem. Especially those in the Dragon class, they were idols in the eyes of many and they would rarely be seen out in public. They were only a step away from the core court after all, so no one treated them disrespectfully.

The supreme elder spoke out loud because she wanted Xiao Fang to realize just how talented Xiao Hei was and how worthless he was in comparison. She didn't want Xiao Fang to hinder Xiao Hei's path, so after today she hoped to see their relationship come to an end.

After a few more minutes, the final light began to shine around the cauldron, indicating that she had successfully passed all 3 tests.

Xiao Fang sighed inwardly. He couldn't help thinking that Xiao Hei got too excited again.

The door to the cauldron opened up, and Xiao Hei stepped out of it with large strides. She wore a smug expression on her face as if she was trying to show Li Xiang how awesome she was. Unfortunately, Li Xiang was in no condition to see what was going on, so Xiao Hei felt as if her achievements landed on deaf ears.

Suddenly the supreme elder approached Xiao Hei.

”Little girl, I don't think I've seen someone as talented as you in nearly a decade. What's your name?”

”My name? Ah, my name is Fei Lin.” Xiao Hei replied.

”Fei Lin. Who is your master?” The elder asked.

The reason she asked for her master's name was because for there to be such a talented disciple in the sect, it was likely that her master was equally as extraordinary.

”My master's name is Su Yun.” Xiao Hei replied again.

”Su Yun?”

The supreme elder recognized the name, but since she was a mere outer court elder, she hardly knew anything about her.

As they spoke, Xiao Fang was making his way towards the cauldron. The supreme elder watched as Xiao Fang entered the cauldron, then a subtle upward curve emerged on the corner of her lips.
