"Old Yu, it seems that this year is the same as usual, and the condition is not good!" The man with the sword glanced at the white-haired old man who was drowsy.

"Oh, why do you say that?" the white-robed old man, who was called by the sword-bearing man to be Yu Lao, raised his eyelids and asked strangely.

"Old Yu, aren't you knowingly asking? At present, there are more than 2,000 people in the assessment, and only one boy has barely passed the qualification, let alone someone with spiritual roots. According to this ratio, less than 100 people in Lin Fengcheng passed this year. The man with the sword said helplessly.

"Hehe, that's to be expected. Although the Broken Cloud Mountain Range is not very large in the Xuan Domain, as one of the eight spiritual veins in the Xuan Domain, it has a strong aura and rich minerals, and the surrounding large and small branches are occupied by some immortal cultivation families, which can be described as outstanding people. These small hidden families are all attached to the Shangqing Sect, and those who have spiritual roots in the clan will be sent to the Broken Cloud Mountain Range. If you are accepted as a disciple, you can not only be protected by the Shangqing Sect, but also get some resource rewards.

Although these resources are nothing to a super sect like the Shangqing Sect, for those small families who are trying to survive in the cracks, it is a matter of life and death. Therefore, these small families will try their best to search for children suitable for cultivating immortals in the mortal world, and send them to the Shangqing Sect in their name.

Of course, among mortals, the descendants of those who have spiritual roots are born, that is less than one, how difficult is it to find them one by one? The major sects accept disciples, which are generally recommended by the immortal cultivation family, and will never openly accept disciples in mortal towns, after all, the cultivation realm does not participate in mortal affairs. Although our Sword Sect had no choice but to accept disciples in the big cities under the jurisdiction of the major sect families due to special reasons, it also paid a great price. It's already very good to be able to pass the assessment so many times in Lin Feng City. Yu Lao stroked his long beard and said with a smile.

"Hehe, that's true. The man with the sword suddenly appeared.

On the other side, the woman with a thin veil on her face looked at the audience quietly, without any words, as if nothing could make her the slightest interest.

"Look..."

"What's that? It's getting bigger, it's amazing. "

"Could it be that there is a genius?" Just as the man with the sword was talking to Yu Lao, a childish exclamation suddenly came from the audience.

"Hehe, isn't there a person with a spiritual root?" Yu Lao slowly closed his eyes that were not too bright, and said with a point.

The man with the sword turned his head to look at the platform, and saw a girl with pigtails, like a porcelain doll, standing on the apparition platform, her big beautiful eyes full of nervousness. Above his head, the point of light changed repeatedly, from the size of a candle flame to five inches, and the shape bloomed in mid-air like a flower bud.

Then the light began to sway from side to side, and the light emitted became more and more dazzling, as if a small thing was struggling to break out of its shell, which was strange.

At this time, there was no sound in the 10,000-person square, and the needle could be heard, for fear of making a little noise and alarming the little life inside.

"Smack!"

After three breaths, a crisp voice like a jade was clearly transmitted into the ears of everyone in the venue.

As soon as the sound fell, a crack cracked at the sharp corner above the point of light.

Then, like a breach opened in the dam to hold back the flood, crack after crack.

Under the gaze of everyone, who was slightly curious and somewhat expectant, the fourth crack suddenly stopped after opening a gap, and the flower bud then struggled for two more breaths, but there was no intention of spreading again.

Eventually, it seemed to give up and began to slowly bloom.

The children waiting for the assessment in the audience stared at the three-color flowers one by one, and their eyes were full of envy

"Finally, there is a person who carries a spiritual root, although it is just an ordinary spiritual root, but it is also useless. The look of disappointment in the sword-bearer's eyes flashed.

Yu Lao regained the drowsiness he had at the beginning, as if he hadn't heard it at all

"Five hundred and sixty-four!"

"Wait to see Young Master Ben show his talents, remember that if you have something to find Young Master Ben in the future, your little brother Young Master Ben has settled it." Xu Budong was taken to the high platform by the golden armor guards, but he still remembered to accept the younger brother.

Jing Yun looked at Su Budong, who turned around in three steps, shook his head helplessly, and suddenly his heart moved, so he shouted loudly without thinking: "If you can pass the assessment, I will recognize you as a big brother." "

When Su Budong, who had already walked away, heard this, he turned his head and opened his mouth to say something, but saw the gold-armored guard beside him carrying him through the crowd and throwing him on the assessment platform, causing laughter in the venue.

As for what Xuan Budong said loudly on the stage, Jingyun and the others couldn't hear it clearly.

"Hehe, this little fat man can provoke the guards to treat him like this, which is the first time. The man with the sword smiled slightly.

"Interesting. Yu Lao raised his eyelids, also smiling, and slowly spit out two words.

As for the woman with a tulle on her face, she still looked cold.

Xu Budong got up from the stage, patted his clothes, and walked to the apparition platform, but the light on his head jumped and went out.

"If this is broken, you check it. Xu Budong touched his head and said to the gold-armored guard next to him.

"......" The Golden Armor Guard rolled his eyes, which were only exposed outside his helmet, and was silent for a moment.

Xu Budong slowly came to the bone mirror and stood in front of the bone mirror for three breaths.

"There is no spiritual root, and the bones are superior, too. "

At this time, a voice without any emotion sounded.

Zhu Budong was stunned in place, touched his head and thought for a long time, and the golden armor guard carried Zhu Budong, who still couldn't figure out the situation, to the back hall.

"If you can't walk, you really pass, isn't Jianmen afraid that this guy will eat them poor?" Jing Yun looked at Xu Budong who was carried backstage with envy, and muttered in a low voice. He said this, but the smile on his face showed that he was really happy for the little fat man.

"Flutter!" Zhang Yifang laughed, and also looked at the high platform with envy.

A quarter of an hour later, Wang Renli did not pass both items as he expected, and happily went home to continue to be his young club.

"Five hundred and eighty-six!"

Jing Yun took a deep breath, nodded at Zhang Yifang, who kept saying words of encouragement, and silently recited a sentence in his heart, "Be quiet in case of trouble", and followed the Golden Armor Guard to the stage with a calm face.

In front of him was a grayish-white boulder about five feet in diameter, with countless tiny purple veins scattered over it like cobwebs, and in the center of the cobblestone was a black bead the size of a fingernail.

He walked slowly to the cobblestone and just stood firm, when a point of light like a bud suddenly appeared above his head, and only after a moment, the crisp sound of "pop, pop!" rang out one after another.

The audience was in an uproar for a while, and after a while, it was silent again, and the pin drop could be heard!

The next moment, three people appeared out of thin air on the assessment platform, an old man with a white beard and white eyebrows, a man with a long sword on his back, and a woman with a thin veil on her face, who were the three elders in the stands.

The golden armor guards hurriedly stepped forward to salute, but when they saw Yu Lao's left hand, the golden armor guards retreated.

Yu Lao stared at the flower bud with eight cracks on the top of his head, his eyes narrowed into a slit, and his mouth couldn't close his smile anymore, but there was a flash of light in the depths of his eyes.

The man with the sword was even more afraid of disturbing him, so he held his breath, and his eyes showed a joy that could not be concealed.

And the woman who has always been cold as frost, the corners of her mouth are raised, and the excitement in her eyes can no longer be hidden.

It didn't take long for the ninth crack to slowly form in everyone's eyes, and the eyes of the man with the sword flickered.

Then, as if he had finally made up his mind, his wrist flicked, and an object appeared in his palm, thinking that he would buy time at all costs.

"Smack!" Just as Yu Lao and the others were thinking about it, a tenth gap suddenly appeared on the flower bud, and then it spread downward for a while to form a complete crack.

The expressions on the faces of the three of Yu Lao suddenly froze, and the colorful flowers that bloomed in the sky in a daze were a little unable to come back to their senses for a while.

"Behold, the ten-petaled flower, it is so beautiful. "

"Oh my God, ten petals, there's an amazing character. "

"I'm so envious, why do you think his life is so good?"

"Look! The invigilators are on stage!"

The uproar in the audience came and went, mixed with all kinds of words of praise and envy, but when Yu Lao and others heard it, it was particularly harsh.

"Hmph! It's actually a perfect spiritual root, and Bai is happy. Yu Lao snorted coldly, and the next moment he appeared on the chair he was sitting on, Rao is cultivation is mind, and he couldn't help but feel a burst of anger.

The man with the sword felt like he had been tricked, stared at Jing Yun for a long time, and snorted lightly, before disappearing from the stage.

The veiled woman, on the other hand, just let out an inaudible sigh and turned back to the stands.

Zhang Yifang looked at the gorgeous and abnormal flowers, and there were as many as ten petals, and she also danced happily and shouted.

In addition to the excitement, I saw that there was something different on the stage, and after a closer look, the invigilator's expression was like eating a fly, his expression was ugly and abnormal, and when he brushed his sleeves away, he was stunned in place.

The children in the audience also noticed the abnormal reactions of the examiners, and some of them were unclear, and the voices of discussion in the audience came and went.

"Is it because of the Perfect Spiritual Root?"

Jing Yun recalled the scene in Shangqing Sect a few years ago, when he was too young and didn't know what to do, but now that he thinks about it, all of this was caused by the perfect spiritual root.

"If I were an ordinary spiritual root, I should be in the Shangqing Sect by now!" he lowered his head gloomily, and slowly walked to the other side with a complicated mood, but the distance of a few zhang was as long as walking a few jiazi.
