Ch 166: Talent Score

When Lu Qing’an and Xu Qingying returned to the Grand Hall, Lin Yao had already completed the Combat Power Assessment.

The formation showed that he had reached the Liuli Realm’s combat power.

This was already terrifying.

You must know that Lin Yao was only at the peak of the Xuji Realm, and had not yet stepped into the Liuli Realm, yet he possessed such strength, already at the level of a genius.

Seeing this, Song Chi praised, “Your combat power is quite good!”

At this time, he realized his misunderstanding. Lin Yao’s combat power was sufficient to pass this assessment. Wang Xiaohong’s gift of the Immortal Medicine was clearly not intended to let him give Lin Yao a lenient assessment.

“It’s alright,” Lin Yao said with a serious expression.

From beginning to end, Lin Yao had no smile on his face.

Song Chi nodded, turning his attention to Lu Qing’an and Xu Qingying, signaling them to undergo the assessment. At this time, he did not waste time and began to conduct the Demon Race Identification Test on Lin Yao.

When Lu Qing’an and the other had gone out earlier, he had tested Zhen Yongfu, and the result was naturally without issue.

Lu Qing’an gestured for Xu Qingying to enter the formation first to assess her combat power, while he quietly stood aside, his gaze fixed on Song Chi and Lin Yao.

Xu Qingying nodded and entered the formation.

“Place your hand on this gem and input Immortal Qi,” Song Chi took out a gem and gestured for Lin Yao to come forward.

Lin Yao stepped forward and casually placed his hand on the special gem.

This gem is both a formation and a special material that the Demon Race extremely dislikes.

The formation and this material, when combined, easily reveal the true form of a Demon Race member, rendering even the strongest concealment methods useless.

The formation activated, a beam of light enveloping Lin Yao. If Lin Yao were a member of the Demon Race, he would be revealed without a trace.

When the light dissipated, Lin Yao stood safely in place, his form completely unchanged.

Song Chi nodded, then looked at Lu Qing’an: “You should test as well.”

Lu Qing’an cooperated with the examination, and the result showed no abnormalities. At this time, he had even more admiration for Xu Qingying’s intuition. It could be seen that Lin Yao was truly not a member of the Demon Race, but what race was he then?

Shortly after, Xu Qingying came out of the formation. Her combat power results were revealed, and Song Chi fell silent for a moment.

“No wonder you were snatched up as a disciple by that little girl, Liu Lingxuan.”

She only had the cultivation of the fifth level of the Xuji Realm, but her combat power had already reached the Liuli Realm!

Wang Xiaohong and Lin Yao both looked at her, especially Wang Xiaohong, whose eyes were filled with greedy desire.

If such a female genius could become his woman, he would be willing to live a few thousand years less!

“It’s your turn,” Song Chi looked at Lu Qing’an. He had a good relationship with Du Feng and naturally knew the requirements of this boy for accepting disciples. He had also heard of Lu Qing’an’s situation: at the same level, he could playfully defeat Du Feng’s proud daughter, Du Weiwei. His true combat power was definitely not simple.

Lu Qing’an smiled and nodded, directly walking into the formation.

Only about three breaths of time passed before Lu Qing’an came out of the formation.

The entire process was much faster than Xu Qingying’s.

It was as if he had simply gone through a formality.

This time, he used some of his strength. He had now become Du Feng’s only direct disciple. In the Xianjian Sect, having such a Master as a backer, having high talent was nothing. Moreover, showcasing his high talent would also allow Du Feng to be more determined to entrust him with the management of the High-Level Life Extension Secret Realm.

Of course, he also reserved some strength. Otherwise, being too flamboyant could attract too much attention, and even bring disaster.

Song Chi saw Lu Qing’an enter and exit in only three breaths of time, and was slightly stunned.

Having overseen the Core Disciple assessment for many years, he knew what this meant.

The combat power assessment inside was different from the one when joining the Inner Sect. This assessment was a clearance-style test, from the resistance of the first level of the Xuji Realm to the resistance of the fifth level of the Liuli Realm.

After all, those who came here for assessment were all at the Xuji Realm cultivation level.

Coupled with Lu Qing’an’s undoubtedly high talent and strength, the reason for Lu Qing’an’s rapid exit was most likely due to his incredibly fast speed in clearing the assessment!

Sure enough, after waiting a while and seeing the formation’s results, he narrowed his beautiful eyes and looked at Lu Qing’an a few more times.

This boy is even stronger than Xu Qingying! He actually cleared it!

With the cultivation of the fourth level of the Xuji Realm, he actually has the combat power of the fifth level of the Liuli Realm!

Moreover, the time spent inside was only three breaths, indicating that Lu Qing’an’s combat power was even higher than the fifth level of the Liuli Realm!

This level of talent and strength is comparable to Liu Lingxuan’s back then!

“You’ve given me quite a surprise,” Song Chi had a gentle smile on his face. It was fortunate for the Sect to have such a genius appear, and as a member of the Sect, he naturally hoped to see the emergence of such geniuses.

Lu Qing’an smiled: “It’s thanks to my Master’s teaching, and also to the Xianjian Sect’s cultivation.”

“Haha, you’re quite eloquent. No wonder Du Feng is always boasting about you,” Song Chi laughed.

Wang Xiaohong’s expression changed slightly at this moment, he stared at Lu Qing’an for a while, and a feeling of displeasure arose in his heart.

This boy is unbelievably strong!

This level of talent and strength is extremely rare in the entire history of the Xianjian Sect!

Seeing Xu Qingying looking at Lu Qing’an at this moment, her beautiful eyes couldn’t hide the light that flickered, his mood became even more unpleasant.

Jealousy sprouted in his heart.

However, the Xianjian Sect will eventually be destroyed, and this kind of genius may not survive. As for him, with such a powerful grandfather, his future achievements might not necessarily be worse than this boy’s!

No matter how strong one’s talent is, it’s only useful if they can stay alive.

After finishing the first two assessment tests, Song Chi began the third assessment for Lu Qing’an and the others.

This assessment was to test their talent, and also required entering a special formation for testing.

The assessment included the speed of absorbing Immortal Qi, endurance, toughness, spiritual power strength, physical potential, physical condition, insight, ability to handle affairs and respond, and emotional control, etc.

This was a comprehensive talent test, with a total score of one thousand. The higher the score, the better the talent, representing a higher future achievement.

This talent test was the most accurate, a hundred times more accurate than the test when they first joined the Inner Sect, because only when a person reached the Xuji Realm cultivation would their talent gradually take shape. Testing at this time could also assess how far a person’s future achievements would likely reach from their talent.

Lu Qing’an and the others all gestured for Lin Yao to go first. Lin Yao also didn’t want to waste time, and directly entered the formation. After five breaths, he came out.

The score began to appear, reaching eight hundred and fifty points.

This score was already among the top one hundred among the many core disciples!

If the score could reach nine hundred, it would be considered a top genius throughout the Xianjian Sect.

In the Xianjian Sect today, the high-ranking strong individuals who could break through to the Huan Yu Realm, almost all had talent test scores of nearly nine hundred.

“That’s very good. If you have a chance encounter in the future, you will have the opportunity to step into the Huan Yu Realm,” Song Chi said.

Lin Yao nodded.

Wang Xiaohong didn’t speak, his gaze fixed on Lu Qing’an. He was very curious about how many talent points Lu Qing’an had.

This boy’s combat power is strong, indicating that his insight is not low, and he has cultivated many special and powerful magical techniques. But this doesn’t mean that his talent score will be very high. Some geniuses may not have high adaptability, perseverance, etc.

At Song Chi’s gesture, Zhen Yongfu entered the formation for the assessment first.

After five breaths, the score came out.

Nine hundred points exactly!

“Very good!” Song Chi hadn’t seen a disciple with a talent score of nine hundred here for a long time.

Zhen Yongfu smiled and nodded, then looked at Lu Qing’an and Xu Qingying. He knew that he couldn’t compare to these two.

But he wanted to see how much he differed from them.

Then, Xu Qingying entered the formation.

After five breaths, Xu Qingying came out of the formation, and her talent score showed nine hundred and fifty points!

“You’re actually as good as your Master!” Song Chi’s expression became serious, then he took out a Voice Transmission Jade Slip, wanting to send a voice transmission to Liu Lingxuan, but after thinking for a moment, he didn’t.

He still didn’t want to see Liu Lingxuan.

“Your talent score is amazing. After you go back, you can directly go to your Master and personally tell her your talent score,” Song Chi instructed.

Xu Qingying nodded: “My Master asked me to pay attention to my talent score before I came.”

Song Chi nodded. What happened here would soon spread throughout the Xianjian Sect.

Let the outside world know that their Sect had such an amazing genius appear.

In the future, she might even take over Liu Lingxuan’s position and shoulder the burden of the Xianjian Sect.

Seeing this, Wang Xiaohong’s heart beat more than twice as fast, and he solidified a thought in his mind.

If the Xianjian Sect is destroyed, he will definitely take Xu Qingying!

“Alright, it’s your turn,” Song Chi looked at Lu Qing’an.
