Volume 1 Chapter 5 Talent Test
The faint morning light, through the white mist in the air, was projected into the window, and the mottled shadows of the flowers swayed on the ground with gusts of breeze.
Xia Qingluo woke up from a few birdsongs, she habitually raised her hand to the head of the bed to find the mobile phone, after a period of fumbling, she opened her sleepy eyes in doubt, looked at the bedside and the scene in the room in a daze, and gradually remembered:
That's right! Yesterday she crossed over!
'Knock knock! ’
There was a knock at the door. Outside the door, my aunt's somewhat anxious voice sounded:
"Xiao Luo! It's not too early! Aren't you going to the academy today to take a talent test?! Didn't you get up! ”
Xia Qingluo was reminded by her like this, looked at the sky outside the window, and suddenly got up from the bed with a grunt, hurriedly dressed and washed, and didn't even bother to eat breakfast, so he went out and ran towards the school.
Today's school is particularly lively, crowded inside and out, and many young ladies and sons of the family are waiting here accompanied by their families.
After all, the talent test is a life event in the Holy Spirit Continent! The quality of a person's talent largely determines the upper limit of future development.
Due to the fact that the test crystal is very precious, in a small place like their Northern Xuan Kingdom, there is only such a broken test crystal in the entire country, which is said to have been eliminated from the Ling Lan Sect.
However, this is not important, after all, in this kind of remote place, most people are just 'waste', and this talent will build a foundation for a lifetime.
Occasionally, in a family of immortal cultivators, being able to produce a 'mortal body' is already an excellent talent.
As for the 'immortal body', it is rare to see in a hundred years.
Just as Xia Qingluo was queuing up at the back of the crowd, Jiang Wanwan also came here.
The man saw Xia Qingluo not far away at a glance, with a grim smile on his face, he walked towards her in a few steps, and without saying a word, he pushed her away and inserted her in front of her.
Xia Qingluo didn't care about this, it didn't matter if she took a test earlier or later.
She knew in her heart that after yesterday's incident, this person would definitely find a way to retaliate against her, and it would definitely be more than just cutting in line.
But after a long time, she saw that Jiang Wanwan had no intention of continuing to attack her, and she couldn't help but wonder in her heart, and faintly felt a little uneasy:
'That's not right! How can you be so honest?! ’
Xia Qingluo didn't understand what Jiang Wanwan was thinking! But since the other party didn't act, she couldn't act rashly, so she could only hope that everyone was well.
After a while, they were lined up in the testing room. After coming in, Xia Qingluo found that in addition to the people who queued up to come to the test, there was also an incompatible 'idler'!
This clear-eyed young man in Tsing Yi sat on the side, looking at the person who came to take the talent test with great interest, it was Yun Xingce.
His black hair hung lazily over his shoulders, his loose robe made a little thin, and he coughed lightly from time to time, sickly.
Seeing Xia Qingluo come in, his eyes lit up, he squinted and smiled, and beckoned to her.
Xia Qingluo nodded slightly in response, and said in his heart:
No wonder this guy said he wanted to play with me yesterday! So I'm here! ’
While Xia Qingluo was thinking, Jiang Wanwan had already stepped onto the test table, she raised her hands and put them on the test crystal, the aura between heaven and earth gathered towards her, and soft white light diffused from the crystal.
It's a 'mortal'!
Seeing this, the people who came to wait for the test whispered one after another, and there was a hint of envy in their expressions when they looked at Jiang Wanwan. After all, the 'mortal body' was already an excellent talent in a small place like theirs.
The corners of Jiang Wanwan's lips hooked up with a smug smile.
When the white light dissipated, she quietly put a small silver needle into the broken crystal, which was still wrapped with a trace of tyrannical aura.
She turned around and glanced at Xia Qingluo behind her, a glyph flashed in her eyes, and she walked off the test bench.
Yun Xingce noticed Jiang Wanwan's movements, he frowned slightly, and looked at Xia Qingluo's expression, a little worried.
Xia Qingluo didn't expect that Jiang Wanwan would be so bold that she dared to do anything on the test crystal.
She stepped forward a few steps to begin the test, and as the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi flowed into her body, she felt her meridians being moved.
And in her sea of knowledge, a huge change has also occurred, and a large number of words suddenly appeared, which made her feel a headache:
'What a situation! Isn't the talent test only about awakening the meridians?! But what's going on in my sea of knowledge......?! ’
The severe headache made her stumble a little. Don't wait for her to stabilize her figure, a sudden change occurs!
'Bang! ’
With a muffled sound, the test crystal in front of her, which had just reacted, suddenly exploded!
Xia Qingluo was shocked and fell backwards! Originally, she thought that she was going to fall into a rut. But there was a burst of fragrance from his nose, and he actually fell into the arms of a person.
She looked up at the man intently, and it was Yun Xingce.
The man's eyes were deep, his thin lips pursed slightly, and he looked at her worriedly and asked, "Are you alright?!" ”
Xia Qingluo held his forehead with one hand, frowned, shook his head and straightened up and said:
"It's okay, thank you Childe!"
Everyone looked at the sudden change in front of them, and they were all a little stunned......
"Xia Qingluo! This is the only test crystal in our Northern Xuan Kingdom! You actually broke it! How are you going to compensate for the loss of the school! ”
A loud questioning broke the brief silence and rang out in the room. The person who spoke was Jiang Wanwan!
Xia Qingluo's head was a little dizzy, thinking back to what had just happened, and suddenly understood:
No wonder you have to get ahead of me! It turned out to be a test crystal! ’
She was a little angry in her heart at this time, originally she just regarded Jiang Wanwan as an arrogant and domineering little girl, and didn't take it to heart.
But Jiang Wanwan's actions today undoubtedly stepped on her bottom line! In her previous life, she was assassinated and killed in an assassination mission! Naturally, I hate these conspiracy plots behind the scenes!
Xia Qingluo thought with a gloomy face, although he was resentful in his heart, but the current situation was not easy to handle. After all, this test crystal was broken in her hand, and everyone present in this matter was obvious to all, even if she wanted to defend something now, I am afraid it would only get darker and darker.
'Looks like we'll have to rely on props to solve it!' ’
Xia Qingluo asked the system:
'System! Check your current points?! ’
[Hey, hey! Your current points are 1578. 】
'Alas, the props are so expensive! I can't even afford to change a 'cloth bag'! Looks like it's going to drag on for a while......'
Xia Qingluo glanced at everyone in the audience, cleared his throat, and said seriously:
"Although this test crystal is broken, it doesn't matter, we just need to gather its fragments and wait quietly for a while......"
Everyone in the room was attracted by Xia Qingluo's words, staring intently at the stage, looking at the pile of debris expectantly.
Even Jiang Wanwan watched curiously and didn't interrupt.
Yun Xingce on the side also raised his eyebrows:
"This girl, is there any way to fix this test crystal!" ’
After a while, someone finally couldn't help but ask:
"How long will we wait! I looked at the fragment and it didn't change! ”
Xia Qingluo looked at the points on the panel:
'112 missing! ’
She mysteriously said to the man, 'Shhhh He lowered his voice and said, "It'll be fine right away!" ”
…… 2000! Xia Qingluo looked at the points on the panel and raised a meaningful smile:
'Exchange for the Bag Item'. ’
[Hey, hey! Successfully redeem the 'Cloth Bag' to generate a random item: "Test Crystal (Trial Version)": This test crystal can only be used three times, and will automatically disappear after three uses. 】
Xia Qingluo looked at the information that popped up on the system panel, raised his eyebrows, and a sneer hooked up at the corner of his mouth:
'Trial? Good stuff! Jiang Wanwan! Today, my mother will teach you how to behave?! ’
"Hey! Xia Qingluo! The fragment hasn't changed at all! You're a liar! What the hell are you making us wait for?! Jiang Wanwan finally couldn't help but shout.
"Huh? Did I mention it would change anything?! It's all broken like that, if you wait for 10,000 years, it's still broken, isn't it stupid! Xia Qingluo looked at Jiang Wanwan and smiled disappreciatively.
“…… How dare you fool me! ”
