Chapter 540: Talent Test, Top-Tier Genius!

Chapter 540: Chapter 540: Talent Test, Top-Tier Genius!

Upon hearing this, Chen Xiao squinted his eyes, "How could this be?"

Qin Lan said, "As soon as they entered the mortal world, they immediately launched a huge recruitment campaign, selecting talented young people from the mortal world to join their sects for cultivation."

"As soon as this news spread, it set off a huge wave."

"Countless young people rushed to their bases for talent testing."

"Unexpectedly, some people were actually selected."

"Now, the influence of the Eight Hidden Sects in the mortal world has become very significant."

"Can they even test talent?" Chen Xiao was astonished.

He didn’t expect that such a thing could be tested.

"That’s right, they seem to have a special instrument that can indeed test cultivation talent. The Xuantian Sect, the leader of the Eight Hidden Sects, started offering free talent tests, and then the other sects followed suit," Qin Lan said.

"We originally wanted to join the fun too, but remembering your previous advice, we didn’t go."

Chen Xiao said, "Then let’s go take a look, and we can test our talent as well."

He also wanted to see what the situation was like out there now.

Moreover, he would take this opportunity to inquire about the latest news on the Dragon Vein.

"Can we really go?" Qin Lan’s eyes were a bit excited.

After all, they had just embarked on the path of cultivation and were most interested in it now. Seeing everyone going for talent tests, they also wanted to join the excitement.

Chen Xiao smiled and said, "No problem, we’ll go to the Xuantian Sect’s testing location."

Qin Lan eagerly nodded, "Alright, I’ll go tell Qingli and the others right now. They’ve also been wanting to test their talent recently."

"Go ahead." Chen Xiao smiled faintly.

Soon, the group of girls returned excitedly.

Even Xu Yanran drove back in a pickup truck from the Dragon Soul.

Her training period had ended.

Now, with heavy tasks at the Dragon Soul, she had already left the Dragon Soul Headquarters to continue carrying out tasks outside.

Upon seeing Chen Xiao, her eyes filled with intense longing.

"Let’s go!" Chen Xiao led a group of stunning beauties and headed energetically to the testing site.

At this moment, at the site where the Xuantian Sect was located.

The place was packed with people.

For most people, martial artists had always been very mysterious and rare, but now the sudden appearance of the Eight Hidden Sects revealed a fact—

Everyone has the hope of becoming a martial artist!!

However, most people on the scene were full of disappointment, because after the test, they found out their talent was still trash.

There were also a few who were full of excitement, as if they had suddenly opened the door to a new world!

Through Luo Qingli and the others’ explanation, Chen Xiao roughly understood this talent test. The Xuantian Sect’s talent test could divide a martial artist’s cultivation talent into nine levels—

Ninth rank is the lowest, first is the highest!

Most of the people who came to test couldn’t even qualify as ninth rank, which means they had no cultivation talent at all. Talent above the sixth rank is already one in ten thousand.

And only those with talent above the fifth rank have the opportunity to join the Xuantian Sect as an outer disciple!

These days, very few people have been tested with talent above the fifth rank.

After all, the mortal world is completely different from the Kunlun Realm.

The Kunlun Realm values martial arts; many people have undergone a lot of medicine baths, elixir, and spirit grass to nourish their bodies and purify impurities from a young age, which can enhance their cultivation talent to a certain extent.

But the mortal world, they don’t have these conditions at all.

Suddenly, a burst of excited laughter sounded.

"Fifth-class talent! Hahaha! I have a fifth-class talent, I’m going to turn things around! From today, I am an outer disciple of the Xuantian Sect!"

A young man shouted excitedly.

Before the test, he was just an ordinary person living at the very bottom of society!

But now it’s different.

He rose to become a noble martial artist! He became a disciple of the Xuantian Sect!

From now on, he would be among the privileged!

Seeing the envious glances thrown at him, the young man’s face couldn’t hide his pride!

Compared to his excitement, the Tianxuan Sect disciple conducting his test was much more composed.

Fifth-class talent was just the most ordinary cultivation talent in their Xuantian Sect, not outstanding at all. They didn’t understand what all these inexperienced people were excited about!

Fifth-class talent, ordinary qualification.

Fourth-class talent, can be called above average.

And third-class talent is rare, considered a genius even in the Kunlun Realm!

Second-class talent, top-tier genius!

And first-class talent, is a peerless prodigy!

"This is your Xuantian Sect outer disciple identity token, if you’re interested, you can join our Xuantian Sect, remember, you must decide within a certain period, the offer won’t wait for you!"

"Th-thank you!" The young man gratefully took the Xuantian Sect’s identity token, and then knelt on one knee, "I hereby apply to join the Xuantian Sect!"

"Since that’s the case, please proceed inside." The Xuantian Sect disciple said indifferently.

Even he wasn’t as good as that fifth-class talent.

At least a third-class talent would make the Xuantian Sect pay some attention.

Unfortunately, after testing for so many days, only a handful of people from the mortal world have reached third-class talent, even fourth-class talent is rare!

He even felt that the sect’s decision was wrong. Why waste effort on these mediocre people?

Compared to the Kunlun Realm folks, the mortals are simply not on the same level. The so-called cultivation talents in the mortal world can be found everywhere in the Kunlun Realm.

That’s the disparity!

Chen Xiao entered the venue with the women, instantly becoming the focus of everyone’s attention. After all, appearing with so many stunning beauties at once, it’s hard not to attract attention!

"We’ve come to test our talents," Chen Xiao said indifferently, looking at the Xuantian Sect disciple in front of him.

The young man looked up, saw Chen Xiao and the women behind him, and paused slightly.

"Go over there to test directly. It seems you have some cultivation. In the mortal world, reaching a certain level, your test results shouldn’t be below the seventh rank."

The young man spoke with disdain, "Seventh rank, pretty good in the mortal world, but compared to our Kunlun Realm’s younger generation, it’s really insignificant."

"So, I advise you not to have too high hopes."

"As for these beauties... as long as their talents aren’t too poor, we can open a backdoor for you to let them join our Xuantian Sect for cultivation."

Who doesn’t like beautiful women?

Many women wanted to join the Xuantian Sect recently, even some were willing to bribe with their bodies. We disciples of the Xuantian Sect enjoyed the wonderful feeling of power, leading a life of revelry.

So, when he saw Luo Qingli and the women, he hinted at opening a backdoor for them, dreaming of their affection.

The women rolled their eyes at him.

Is he sick?

What an ordinary guy!

Chen Xiao led the women to a strangely shaped pillar.

This is the Talent Testing Pillar.

Just place your hand on it, and moments later, a light will rise from the pillar.

There are nine colors: black, white, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, red, and purple.

Black is a dark light, representing the lowest ninth-level talent, while purple represents the highest first-class talent, also known as "Purple Qi Comes from the East."

"I’ll go first." Zhang Yaqing was eager to try.

She directly placed her jade hand on the pillar, and within just three seconds, a red light beam shot up!

At that moment, everyone cast incredibly shocked looks.

"R-red?!"

"This is second-class talent, top genius potential!"

Even those Xuantian Sect disciples stared dumbfounded at Zhang Yaqing! A top genius, something at the direct disciple level in their sect!

The entire sect doesn’t have many!

Zhang Yaqing curiously asked, "What level is my talent?"

Luo Qingli said, "Red second-class talent; I hear it’s a top genius!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yaqing was extremely excited, "I knew I was a genius!"

"Swish, swish, swish—"

In an instant, figures rushed out from the depths of the Xuantian Sect’s headquarters. They were middle-aged or elderly, looking like celestial beings with powerful auras.

"Who knew, there exists someone with second-class talent in the mortal world!"

"It’s known, mortals don’t traditionally undergo external tempering from a young age. Second-class talent, if cultivated, might reach a level of extraordinary potential!"

"Who was just tested for second-class talent?"

They hurriedly asked the Xuantian Sect disciples.

The disciples immediately looked at Zhang Yaqing.

The elders of the Xuantian Sect soon approached Zhang Yaqing, showing friendly expressions, "Young lady, would you like to join our Xuantian Sect?"

"With your talent, entering the Xuantian Sect means you can directly become a direct disciple of our most powerful members, among the highest in status among our disciples!"

"Sorry, I’m not interested." Zhang Yaqing directly refused.

She’s accustomed to living in the mortal world, can’t abandon her family, nor endure the boring life of cultivation. There’s still so much money she’s yet to spend, never considering it.

"This this this... young lady, you should think it over. Such good talent wasted not cultivating is really a waste!"

"That’s right... besides, joining our Xuantian Sect doesn’t mean you can’t return to the mortal world. Some disciples we’ve recruited from the mortal world still visit their families."

"No interest, no interest." Zhang Yaqing waved her hand, "I just came to join in the fun today."

She hooked Chen Xiao’s arm, "How was it? Didn’t disappoint you, right?"

"Impressive!" Chen Xiao gave a thumbs-up.

Zhang Yaqing’s eyes sparkled with charm, voice coquettish, "It’s all thanks to your nurturing."

She deliberately emphasized the word nurturing.

Chen Xiao’s handsome face blushed.

With so many people here, this woman really dares to say such bold words!

The elders of Xuantian Sect wanted to say something.

But the next moment, they were attracted by another rising red light!

"Whoa!"

"Another top genius emerges?"

In an instant, the entire scene exploded with excitement.

Everyone looked towards the Testing Pillar.

Qin Lan saw everyone’s eyes on her, quickly retracted her hand from the pillar, returned to Chen Xiao’s side, smiling sweetly.

"Looks like my talent isn’t bad either."
