“I heard they’re going around buying spirit purifying pills, thinking it’ll actually improve their potential. Do they really believe it’s that easy?”
Laughter echoed from all directions, trampling Su Lian’s pride into the ground.
Overwhelmed by despair and shame, he hung his head, shoulders hunched, barely able to meet anyone’s gaze.
But as the line slowly moved forward, it soon became his turn.
Seeing him hesitate, the elder in charge of testing spirit roots grew impatient and snapped, “What are you doing? If you don’t want to be tested, move aside already! Or have you bee so clueless that you don’t know how the test works?”
Laughter erupted from all around.
Su Lian was overwhelmed with shame and anger, wishing he could escape from this place immediately.
But the gaze of his friend, Hong Quankun, behind him urged him forward, and he slowly placed his hand on the Spirit Testing Stone.
The Spirit Testing Stone quickly lit up with two colors—red and gold—indicating an affinity for fire and metal elements.
As he channeled his spiritual power, the two colored bars began to rise slowly, with the red one taking the lead.
Level one, level two… In the past, Su Lian had always stopped at level three. He turned his head away, unwilling to face the humiliating sight, and was about to withdraw his hand.
Suddenly, the sound of sharp gasps filled the air around him.
“Oh my gosh, what’s happening? Why is the red bar still rising?”
“Didn’t they say that Su Lian’s spirit root potential was only level three?”
Su Lian was still puzzled when he heard Hong Quankun’s trembling shout in his ear, “Lian, look—quick, look!”
The urgency and excitement in Hong Quankun’s voice made Su Lian turn around, only to see the red bar had already reached level six.
But the red bar didn’t stop there; it kept rising until it finally settled at level eight.
After the red bar came to a stop, the gold bar began to rise. Unlike before, when it always stopped at level two, this time it reached level six.
Everyone was stunned by the scene, and even Su Lian felt as if he were living in a dream.
He stared blankly at the elder in charge of the spirit root test and asked, “Could the Spirit Testing Stone be broken?”
The elder had the same suspicion and quickly brought over another Spirit Testing Stone. He had both Su Lian and another warrior go through the test again. The warrior’s results came back normal, but Su Lian’s levels once more reached eight and six. Ŗ𝐀N𝔬ᛒĚŠ
This time, even the elder from the Tianwu Sect couldn’t remain calm.
He asked anxiously, “I remember you participated in the outer disciple selection three years ago, and back then, your spirit root barely reached level three. How did you manage to improve so drastically in just three years?”
Su Lian looked just as confused, turning his gaze toward Hong Quankun for answers.
Hong Quankun had already tested his potential earlier, and it was just as poor as before—too bad to even look at.
After thinking hard for a long time, Hong Quankun suddenly said, “Lian, if there’s anything unusual, it must be that bottle of Spirit Purifying Pills you bought a few days ago.”
Spirit purifying pills? Su Lian suddenly remembered, “Oh, right! I bought a bottle of Five Elements Spirit Purifying Pills a few days ago. But those pills were only of the fifth grade, and I didn’t feel any effects after taking them.”
He pulled out the pill bottle and tipped it over, finding only one pill left inside. Nervously, he handed it to Hong Quankun, “Kun, hurry and take this. See if it works for you.”
More than anyone else, he wanted to know if the pill was truly the reason behind it.
