Unrecognizable fish
Seeing Xiao Feng and the others hadn't moved for a long time, the Law Enforcement Elder didn't show any intention of rushing them. Instead, he stroked his beard with satisfaction.
Only those who understand how to assess the situation like this can Cultivate more calmly to higher levels in the future.
After a moment, Xiao Feng noticed a few people had reached the center of the steps. Although everyone's face showed strain, their steps didn't stop.
Seeing this, Xiao Feng also slowly stepped onto the Ascension Ladder.
However, when Xiao Feng's foot landed on the Ascension Ladder, he didn't feel any pressure.
[Challenges have been filtered for the host, the host can walk freely!]
That timely System appeared again. Hearing this, Xiao Feng tentatively took another step, and there was still no pressure.
Seeing this, Xiao Feng couldn't be bothered to waste time and jogged all the way up the steps.
Seeing this scene, the Law Enforcement Elder was stunned. He walked directly to Xiao Feng's side, slightly frowning, and spoke.
"Are you carrying a magic artifact?"
Xiao Feng shrugged.
"How about I take it off and run again?"
The Law Enforcement Elder silently shook his head. After a moment, he finally spoke to Xiao Feng.
"Never mind, even if you have a magic artifact, it's yours. Just get up these steps!"
After a moment, except for those who were reckless at the start, everyone else successfully ascended the steps. Everyone's face showed varying degrees of fatigue, except, of course, for Xiao Feng.
"Come with me!"
The Law Enforcement Elder led everyone directly towards the Great Hall. Xiao Feng was the first to finish the Ascension Ladder trial, so naturally, he ended up at the very back of the line.
"You are all now Outer Disciples of the Sect. Later, I will introduce you to the six Peak Lords of the Lingjian Sect!"
"Being chosen by these Peak Lords is your good fortune!"
Hearing this, everyone present couldn't help but swallow. The Law Enforcement Elder quickly led the people into the Great Hall.
"This is Ouyang Lie, the Peak Lord of Chonghuo Peak!"
"This one is Wang Chongming, the Peak Lord of Qing Song Peak!"
With each introduction, they soon came to the person sitting in the center at the end.
"This person is our Sect Head, Si Tianyi, who resides on the Main Peak!"
Aside from Yan Yun, the remaining Peak Lords were introduced one by one.
"Additionally, there is the Qingfeng Peak Lord, who is currently traveling and is therefore not in the Sect for the time being!"
Hearing this, everyone present nodded blankly. They hadn't heard about the matters within the Lingjian Sect before, so naturally, they didn't understand but felt awe after hearing it now.
"All right, we will now begin the Spiritual Root test. Those who pass the Spiritual Root test can request the Elders to keep you!"
After saying this, the Law Enforcement Elder walked directly in front of the person who had ascended the steps last.
"What's your name?"
"Zhong Ling!"
"Supreme-grade Fire Spiritual Root? Interesting!"
The Law Enforcement Elder couldn't help but laugh and speak. Soon, his gaze fell upon Ouyang Lie.
Ouyang Lie also laughed heartily, stood up, and spoke frankly.
"Everyone, I won't be polite then. Zhong Ling, are you willing to become my Disciple under Ouyang Lie?"
Being chosen by these Peak Lords was already a blessing cultivated in a past life. Hearing this, the girl naturally wouldn't refuse.
"Thank you, Peak Lord, for your acceptance!"
Seeing people being chosen one by one, the remaining people became more and more expectant. Until everyone else was chosen, everyone looked at Xiao Feng.
They were clearly anticipating whether this fellow, who had progressed most smoothly during the trial, would ultimately be chosen by the Sect Head.
And Xiao Feng was also extremely confident. He might be a little worse in other aspects, but when it came to Spiritual Roots, he absolutely wouldn't have the slightest deviation.
After all, he had passed Yan Yun's test before. His Heavenly Spiritual Root was invincible.
After a moment, the Law Enforcement Elder came before Xiao Feng and slowly placed his hand on Xiao Feng's forehead.
"Eh?"
After taking a sharp breath, the Law Enforcement Elder looked somewhat disbelieving, while Xiao Feng's face was full of arrogance.
"Elder, what is my Spiritual Root?"
Before the Law Enforcement Elder could speak, Si Tianyi, who had been eagerly anticipating, frowned unhappily.
After all, he knew what the seating order meant; the last person to be chosen was the first person to pass the Ascension Ladder.
Logically, Xiao Feng's strength should be extraordinary and shouldn't be like this at all.
After being disappointed for a while, Si Tianyi continued to speak slowly.
"So it's a Mixed Spiritual Root!"
Mixed Spiritual Root?
Many Disciples couldn't help but laugh. This was the most useless Spiritual Root. Although it was only one word different from the Heavenly Spiritual Root, it could also Cultivate techniques of all attributes.
But its upper limit was very low!
Many people even got stuck directly at the Peak of mid-stage Qi Refinement, never making any Breakthrough in their entire lives.
Hearing the words "Mixed Spiritual Root," Xiao Feng was also very confused and couldn't help but question the System.
"System, what's going on? Are you screwing with me again?"
The System's mechanical voice came out.
[Host, don't worry. They don't know quality. Is the Heavenly Spiritual Root something just any small fry can discern?]
Small fry?
Hearing such a term, Xiao Feng couldn't help but chuckle.
After all, that was the Sect Head of the Lingjian Sect, yet he became "small fry" in the System's mouth. It was truly amusing.
Seeing Xiao Feng's nonchalant look, Si Tianyi couldn't help but frown. But after all, the people in front of him had all passed the Ascension Ladder trial, and he, as the Sect Head, had no way to drive them away.
Helpless, Si Tianyi then continued to speak to Xiao Feng.
"Kid, since you have the Mixed Spiritual Root attribute, it means you can Cultivate any technique. Look at these Peak Lords present and pick whoever you like. Become a Disciple under whoever you prefer!"
Hearing this, Xiao Feng originally wanted to choose this so-called Sect Head, intending to show him his true strength later. However, Si Tianyi added another sentence.
"Of course, my Sect Head's Disciples are already full. Otherwise, I would definitely take you in. You choose from the rest!"
Xiao Feng swallowed, feeling speechless, and thought to himself, 'He really is small fry, doesn't know quality at all.'
Xiao Feng then remembered the woman who had made him come to the Lingjian Sect. He looked at the empty chair's position and pointed after a moment.
The other Elders present completely breathed a sigh of relief. After all, if Xiao Feng really became their Disciple, it would not only waste cultivation resources but also might not lead to any achievements. Even if he was just someone who served tea and water, they would find him an eyesore!
Now that he had become Yan Yun's Disciple, it could be considered a good thing for them. At this moment, they also secretly sighed in their hearts, thinking that it was fortunate Yan Yun wasn't here, otherwise, she might have caused a big scene directly.
