269: Li Mu is going to meet the Great Elder?

After reading the diary, the Grand Elder stood up in shock.

Upon learning that Li Mu would be coming to see him, his entire being was greatly invigorated, and his face was filled with an uncontrollable smile.

The Second Elder looked at the Grand Elder with confusion, knowing that the Grand Elder had just been reading the latest updates from Li Mu, but the Grand Elder's expression seemed to indicate that something had happened in the diary?

The Second Elder, standing nearby, was surprised by his reaction and asked, “What’s wrong with you? Did the diary write about some major event again?”

The Grand Elder's face was flushed with excitement as he joyfully said, “Haha ~ Li Mu has finished arranging all the countermeasures against the invasion from another world after the spiritual energy tide, and he also plans to meet me tonight to reveal some future matters.”

The Second Elder raised an eyebrow, greatly surprised: “He’s coming tonight?”

“If he knew that we actually already knew what would happen in the future, he’d probably be completely bewildered, hahaha…”

The Grand Elder nodded with a smile: “He definitely will be bewildered, haha…”

…………

Meanwhile, at the Cultivation Academy.

The talent test at the foot of the Cultivation Academy mountain finally concluded its enrollment after dusk.

Wu Ya looked at the crowd standing at the foot of the mountain; some were joyful, some were sorrowful.

The joyful ones had passed the talent test and become Disciples of the Cultivation Academy, now cultivators.

The sorrowful ones had failed the test due to poor talent and could only look enviously at those who had passed.

Wu Ya said gently, “After several days, this talent test has concluded its enrollment in Perfection.”

“Disciples who passed the talent test must diligently cultivate. Those who did not pass, please return home; do not linger here.”

Those who had failed the talent test, upon hearing Director Wu Ya’s words, each showed expressions of disappointment, reluctantly looking towards the enrollment area, but ultimately could only turn and leave.

“Sigh… if only I had a Spiritual Root, then I could also become a cultivator.”

“Who doesn’t want to! But this depends on fate…”

“Look at how many people came to test their Spiritual Root this time, and how few qualified! The ratio is too low.”

“People should always have some ideals; what if they come true!”

“Now that the Spiritual Root test is over, I can give up hope and just be an ordinary person.”

As the many who did not pass departed, their words were exceptionally disheartened.

After all, the Opportunity for longevity and flight had eluded them; how could such disappointment not be disheartening?

At this moment, all those who had passed the test stood together, whispering to each other.

But it was clear that each of them had joyful expressions on their faces.

Wu Ya and the teams from the Special Affairs Handling Bureau present felt a warmth in their chests at this scene.

Their constant protection and sacrifices had been worth it…

Wu Ya turned to Ke Ming and said, “For the Disciples who passed the talent test, I’ll trouble you to lead them to the dormitories. I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll leave first!”

Ke Ming nodded slightly, bowing and saying, “Understood, Senior, please go ahead. We’ll handle things here!”

After Wu Ya left, Ke Ming looked at the list of those who had passed the talent test this time.

Millions of people had come for this talent test, and after several days of testing, only just over 1,200 people had passed.

Previously, due to the influence of the spiritual energy tide, thousands of people had their innate abilities activated, and they were also included in the Cultivation Academy this time.

Ke Ming led dozens of Disciples to the dormitories, while the Disciples behind him discussed with both shock and excitement.

“Oh my god, I actually entered the Cultivation Academy! When I go back, I must properly worship my Ancestral Master. My ancestral grave must be emitting green smoke!”

“Oh my, I still can’t believe I successfully passed! My heart is pounding more than when I see my crush…”

“Do you feel it? As soon as we stepped into this dormitory area, the Spiritual Qi became especially rich!”

“Yes, yes, I thought it was just my imagination!”

“…………”

Ke Ming led the way and assigned them, listening to their excited words.

By the time everyone was properly settled, several hours had passed.

Xin Mulan was exhausted and slumped on the table, saying, “Oh my god, this really looks like a small task, but getting busy with it is truly killing me.”

Jin Meiting sat down to adjust her breathing and also said, “Yes, thankfully, enrollment is over, and everyone can finally get some good rest.”

Qin Zhe stood up in shock, knocking his chair over, his voice particularly jarring in the quiet night.

“Holy crap, Li Mu is going to see the Grand Elder!!!”

Everyone looked at Qin Zhe in shock, most of them standing up in surprise.

Qin Zhe excitedly said, “It’s true, the diary says that Li Mu is going to see the Grand Elder tonight, and he’ll also tell the Grand Elder about some future events.”

Those with diary copies began to take out their diaries.

Jin Meiting was the first to take hers out, and a moment later, her face was filled with surprise.

She hadn’t expected Li Mu to actually go see the Grand Elder, and she smiled, remembering their brief encounter on the plane.

After reading the diary, Xin Mulan asked in confusion, “Li Mu went to see the Grand Elder, so will that Linglong follow him too?!!!”

Zhu Ping: ??!!

“Are you referring to Linglong? Linglong is Li Mu’s spiritual pet, so of course, she’ll be with him!”

“Why are you so concerned about Li Mu’s spiritual pet?!”

Xin Mulan: “No, it’s just been a while since we last met, and I kind of miss her…”

Ke Ming, who was reading the diary nearby, curved his lips into a smile and said, “I wonder what future matters Li Mu will discuss with the Grand Elder?”

Qin Zhe: “Haha ~ Li Mu probably doesn’t think we’re still in the dark, does he? Maybe he’s telling the Grand Elder about the spiritual energy tide or this Cultivation Academy!”

Ke Ming: “Exactly, exactly, after all, in Li Mu’s eyes, we still don’t know anything, but who would have thought that we are the ‘old sixes’ and already know, haha…”

Zhao He echoed, “Isn’t that right? I can’t believe we’re the old sixes!”

Hu Bingbing stroked her chin and said, “What do you think Li Mu’s perpetually unchanging face will look like when he finds out we’re the old sixes?”

Xin Mulan laughed and dramatically acted out a jaw-dropping expression, then said, “Haha ~ Li Mu might just look like how I just acted…”

Ke Ming imagined Xin Mulan’s dramatic expression on Li Mu’s face and couldn't help but shiver.

Jin Meiting, however, shook her head. Li Mu’s mindset was different from others. If it were anyone else, it might be uncertain, but if it were Li Mu, he would probably just smile slightly…
