Doing so, although cultivation will improve, it will also bring many hidden dangers, making it difficult for the cultivator to progress further in the future.
The many prodigies in the field were also looking at each other in confusion.
"Next, Wang Yuan!"
With the previous prodigy’s test, the next few were familiar with the process and stepped forward one after another to infuse True Qi into the copper bell.
The talents of the crowd that followed were much more normal. Most resulted in three to five chis, indicating dium aptitude. Due to the abundant Spiritual Qi in the Kunlun Realm, even those with dium aptitude could cultivate to the Celestial Venerable Realm.
If one wants to improve further, it then depends on opportunities and luck.
It is precisely because of this that many people’s cultivation remains at Celestial Venerable, unable to step into Human Immortal.
"Next, Tuoba Ye!"
The examining elder shouted.
Tuoba Ye, whose na was called, approached the copper bell with a grim face.
After battling Ye Qingchen in the valley, he took a strike from Ye Qingchen and was severely injured. If he hadn’t managed to grab a copper bell at the last mont, he might have already been eliminated!
Shua!
At this mont, the eyes of everyone in the field turned towards him.
After all, one of the two major prodigy leaders had a very loud reputation. If it hadn’t been for encountering Ye Qingchen, he and Wu Xingyun would certainly be the brightest stars of the election. But because of Ye Qingchen’s existence, they were relegated to supporting roles.
"Tuoba Ye, one of the two major prodigy leaders!"
"Originally, he was like Wu Xingyun, the most likely to achieve first place in the election. What a pity! What a pity!"
"I wonder, what is his true aptitude?"
Amidst the discussions, under everyone’s gaze, Tuoba Ye approached the copper bell, placed his hand on the Spirit Heaven Bell, and infused Spiritual Qi.
As he passed by Ye Qingchen, he paused slightly and said in a deep voice, "Ye Qingchen, having high strength does not an high aptitude. Although your combat power is terrifying, I seem to rember; when you killed the Furious Dragon Flood Dragon at Lantai River, you were only at the Celestial Venerable Fourth Layer!"
"Within just three months, you’ve raised your cultivation to the Celestial Venerable Seventh Layer, which must have relied on external forces, right?"
Upon saying this.
Tuoba Ye’s face was full of coldness.
At first, he was also shocked by Ye Qingchen’s strength, but the more he thought about it later, the more sothing seed off. When Ye Qingchen was at Lantai River, everyone saw that he was only at Celestial Venerable Fourth Layer.
Even if he consud all the Creation Lotus Seeds, it couldn’t possibly elevate his cultivation so rapidly?
There is only one possibility!
"Yeah, how did his cultivation improve so quickly? In just three months, he enhanced by three layers at once? Sothing strange must be going on; I absolutely don’t believe it!"
"I refuse to believe he has such defiant aptitude to ascend three minor realms in three months! This isn’t the Low Level True Qi Realm; this is the Celestial Venerable Realm!"
Once Tuoba Ye spoke, the crowd suddenly realized.
Instantly, the gazes towards Ye Qingchen changed again and again. If Ye Qingchen truly relied on external forces to improve his cultivation, then perhaps he wasn’t so fearso after all.
"From Celestial Venerable Fourth Layer to Celestial Venerable Seventh Layer in three months?"
At this point.
The several Supre Elders who had been indifferent all furrowed their brows slightly.
"Let take a look!" One of the Supre Elders said, lightly tapping his finger. In the void, a brilliantly glowing book appeared, accompanied by a rustling sound, and stopped on one of its pages.
This book records all the prodigies’ records.
"Over three months ago, Ye Qingchen rose to fa at Lantai River, killing Gong Wenqing from Celestial Cloud City, Zhuang Shikai from Haoran City, Zhao Qian from Profound Sword City, and seven others. Slaying seven guards, one sword severed the river and killed the Furious Dragon Flood Dragon. At that ti, his cultivation was..."
"Celestial Venerable Fourth Layer!"
Once the words were out.
The six other Supre Elders all frowned slightly.
Their originally fervent gaze towards Ye Qingchen dimd a few shades, losing its previous heat.
"Buzz!"
At this mont.
The vast Spirit Heaven Bell suddenly trembled.
A visible ripple spread outward instantly. At the sa ti, vast rays of light emanated from the bell, and seven clear chis rang discreetly.
"Seven chis!"
"It’s seven chis!"
The several Supre Elders’ eyes suddenly lit up.
Six chis are already considered superior.
Seven chis reflect exceptional aptitude.
Though Tuoba Ye did not achieve a good ranking in the election, his cultivation remains; his aptitude remains.
And just at this ti.
The many prodigies in the field erupted completely.
Indeed, as a renowned prodigy leader, his aptitude and potential vastly outshone soone like Ye Qingchen, who suddenly erged.
"I refuse to believe your aptitude is higher than mine!" As he passed by Ye Qingchen, Tuoba Ye snorted coldly and walked away straight towards the rear.
"Mr. Ye!"
Lu Yanwu and Lin Shifei both looked at Ye Qingchen nervously.
But Ye Qingchen remained indifferent, noncommittal.
Tuoba Ye’s displayed aptitude stirred up the climax of this round of aptitude tests. Following that, the prodigies’ tests quickly resud normalcy, and when Wu Xingyun’s turn ca, the field erupted again.
"No wonder it’s Wu Xingyun, no wonder it’s the two major prodigy leaders; they’re both seven chis!"
"Truly remarkable..."
Next.
It was Lin Shifei and Lu Yanwu’s turn.
These two, due to following Ye Qingchen continuously, both obtained silver bells and secured the second and third positions in the election.
Lin Shifei caused the Spirit Heaven Bell to ring six tis.
Although it didn’t match Wu Xingyun and Tuoba Ye, he was nonetheless very satisfied.
As for Lu Yanwu, she unexpectedly made the Spirit Heaven Bell ring seven tis; her aptitude is indeed comparable to top-level prodigies.
After the top hundred prodigies of the election had all completed their tests, only Ye Qingchen remained untested in the entire field.
"Ye Qingchen, it’s your turn!"
The examining elder reminded.
Ye Qingchen nodded, and directly approached the Spirit Heaven Bell.
"Finally, it’s Ye Qingchen’s turn. I wonder what his aptitude truly is..."
"Yes, is he truly extraordinarily talented and different from others, or as Wu Xingyun said, reliant on external forces for forced improvent?"
"I think he should be able to at least trigger seven chis, right?"
As they watched Ye Qingchen step forward, everyone focused their attention, all wanting to see what Ye Qingchen’s aptitude truly was.
Even the seven Supre Elders glanced slightly.
"Mr. Ye!"
Lu Yanwu and Lin Shifei, who had been in the field all along, inevitably grew nervous.
Even if they knew Ye Qingchen was extraordinarily strong, when it was ti to test his aptitude, they couldn’t help but feel anxious. Only the Three-tailed Fox squinted its eyes, seemingly indifferent.
Under everyone’s gaze, Ye Qingchen walked up to the Spirit Heaven Bell and slowly raised his right hand, gently placing his palm on the bell.
Boom!
Rolling True Qi, like a tidal flood, poured in torrents, flooding into the bell.
At this point.
Everyone widened their eyes.
However...
One breath, two breaths, three breaths.
Ti seed to halt; the air felt static.
Next mont.
A commotion broke out all around.
The Spirit Heaven Bell did not ring a single ti!
