Chapter 19: Testing one's spiritual root can attract heavenly lightning?!

Ning Yue is not the type to be easily bullied.

She purposefully pulled out a book called "Ancient Fire Seed" from the bookshelf to read.

Ning Yue flipped through two pages: "Since it can nourish my water elemental root, is the ten-thousand-year-old giant python in the Azure Valley Secret Realm of the cold element?"

The little flower perched atop Ning Yue's hair shook its leaves upon hearing this: "Yes."

Ning Yue didn't speak, but picked up the book and turned two more pages. A flash of inspiration appeared, and a smile appeared on his lips.

"Looks like I'm not going to die this time."

Xiaohua looked down at the book in her hand and understood.

After a pause, he stretched out a leaf and flicked Ning Yue.

"Now that you know, don't waste your time. Do you think you have a lot of time? Do you think you can learn this book in three days?"

Ning Yue held the book, looking at it without saying a word, but her eyes clearly said, "Why not?"

Xiao Hua paused for a moment, then also felt that Ning Yue could learn it.

He browsed through several bookshelves, picked out a few books, and tossed them to Ning Yue.

"Let's take a look at these books too."

Ning Yue then studied diligently for a while, forgetting to eat or sleep.

The next day, I was woken up by the round-faced senior sister from yesterday.

"Get up quickly! Get ready and wash up; we're going to participate in the apprentice selection election!"

Ning Yue got up groggily.

After practicing all night, Ning Yue felt refreshed, but her mind couldn't accept it. She felt that she hadn't truly rested until she had emptied her mind and gone to sleep.

I followed the people in a daze and was assigned a seat by my senior.

When she finally came to her senses, she was surrounded by a dense crowd of people.

They did not yet have disciple robes; they were still wearing their own clothes, which were colorful.

Several elderly men with a sage-like demeanor stood on the platform at the very top.

Ning Yue used his 5.0 vision to look over and confirmed that four of them were the old men who had climbed up his window that night.

There were several other elders beside him whom Ning Yue didn't recognize; he had never met them before.

In the very center was a tall, imposing, and very charismatic middle-aged man.

Ning Yue guessed that this was probably the sect leader of the Fusang Sect. Next to him was a rather young man who looked very handsome and gentle.

Ning Yue couldn't help but take a second look.

People who were being tested for qualifications were called forward one after another.

There is a perfectly translucent jade stone there; the tester only needs to inject a little spiritual energy into it.

Only those disciples who have secured a spot as inner disciples are standing here.

The outer disciples' aptitude test is not taken together with theirs.

Ning Yue heard Jiang Yishen's name.

Looking up, a simple young man in white slowly stepped onto the platform and poured spiritual energy into the spirit stone.

The translucent spirit stone suddenly turned a deep green.

"—A top-grade wood-type celestial spiritual root, with superior aptitude!"

The alchemy elder on the platform lit up and handed him a jade token for a direct disciple of alchemy cultivators, which Jiang Yishen accepted.

Ning Yue withdrew her gaze, somewhat eager to try. She knew, of course, that her aptitude was absolutely superior, but she was quite curious about what color would appear on the spirit stone given that she possessed five spiritual roots.

The next name called was Duan Huailin.

"—A mutated ice spirit root, with superior aptitude!"

Ice spirit root is quite rare, and several elders wanted to take him as their direct disciple.

Duan Huailin chose the formation without hesitation.

Ning Yue was not surprised at all and waited listlessly for her name to be called.

Finally, they called two more people up.

"Ning Yue—"

Ning Yue walked out of the crowd with a cheerful expression.

She wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she felt that the people around her were looking at her with intense gazes.

Jiang Yishen and Duan Huailin, needless to say, had been watching her ever since they left Ningyue.

But what's wrong with the others? Why are they staring at me like that too?

Ning Yue wasn't narcissistic; it was just that everyone's attention was too intense, making it impossible to ignore.

Ning Yue was right; people were whispering as she walked onto the stage.

"This is Ning Yue? Our top sword cultivator of this year?"

"She looks way too young, maybe eleven or twelve at most. Could she be a young lady from some sword-cultivating family? Her strength is terrifying!"

"I remember our alchemy champion for this year's competition is also named Ning Yue, right? How come there's another one in the sword cultivator camp? Is it a case of the same name?"

"That can't be right, I've never heard of two people named Ning Yue?"

The person who asked the question paused for a moment: "...Do you know what it means if we don't have the same name?"

After a long silence, he finally said, "...Impossible, right?"

There were also sounds coming from the array repair area.

"Wasn't Ning Yue training with us? Wasn't he a formation cultivator? When did he go off to be a sword cultivator?"

People from other factions, unaware of the situation, were asking around, "...What happened? Who exactly is Ning Yue?"

Ning Yue: "..."

It's not an illusion.

The commotion below the stage naturally did not escape the ears of the elders on the stage.

The four elders specializing in law enforcement, alchemy, formations, and talismans were already eager to begin.

Ning Yue hadn't even come up yet, but they went down to meet him on their own.

The elder in charge of law enforcement beamed with delight: "The sect leader said I'll teach you myself. Accept my disciple's jade token and come back with me!"

Ning Yue: "...Ha."

The alchemy elder remained calm: "I see you've also entered the alchemy trial, and you've even become the chief alchemist."

"Please accept my jade token and come back with me, okay? I have all sorts of rare spiritual plants there; I'll give them all to you. What do you say?"

Ning Yue: "...Haha."

The formation elder, not to be outdone, pushed forward: "Ning Yue has also passed my formation's trial ground, so please accept my jade token."

I heard you and Duan Huailin have a good relationship. If you become my direct disciple, you two can continue to hang out together!

Ning Yue: "...Hahaha."

Duan Huailin: "..." He didn't expect to be called out by him.

The Talisman Elder was the most upset, and in a fit of anger, he struck the Formation Elder.

"It's all your fault! Who told you to go and meet him? Otherwise, Ning Yue could have gone back into the talisman trial arena!"

Ning Yue silently looked at the four elders, then reached out his hand towards the testing spirit stone: "...that one."

"Ahem—" The sect leader in the middle finally couldn't stand it anymore and interrupted the four of them.

"Everyone, let Ning Yue test his aptitude first. He's been stuck here for ages."

Other elders Ning Yue didn't recognize joked, "Come on up, stop crowding around that young lady."

Ning Yue cast a grateful glance at the sect leader.

Standing beside his father, Ji Liyan couldn't help but chuckle softly.

Ji Feng looked at him curiously: "What's wrong?"

Ji Liyan smiled and shook his head slightly, his gaze falling on the girl who was reaching for the spirit stone.

"...It's nothing."

Ning Yue was extremely excited, and his fingertips eagerly overflowed with spiritual power, which he poured into the spirit stone.

The translucent spirit stone absorbed her spiritual power but showed no reaction.

Ning Yue frowned and leaned closer. What's going on?

Could it be that too little spiritual energy was injected?

Ning Yue then infused a little more spiritual energy into the mixture.

The spirit stone went silent for a moment, then flashed with lightning.

The enforcement elder leaned closer: "What happened? Is the spirit stone broken?"

The spirit stone suddenly went silent again.

Just as Ning Yue was about to go closer to take another look, the law enforcement elder's eyes narrowed, and he realized something.

He suddenly pulled Ning Yue backward, and a long sword suddenly appeared under their feet. In the blink of an eye, the two of them were already in mid-air.

Ning Yue was standing on the sword and hadn't even reacted when a loud bang erupted from the location of the spirit stone below.

The spirit stone split open from the inside, and a bolt of lightning as thick as a bowl spilled out and struck the ground.

My God! Ning Yue was shocked!

—Rainbow-colored lightning! This is something I've never seen in my lifetime.
