Chapter 32
C32 – Possessing the Aptitude to Receive the True Teachings
“No need, I’m already here.”
At this moment, a strong voice sounded.
Everyone looked over and saw a short and fat old man with white hair on his temples walking in. The deacon who had left earlier respectfully followed behind him.
“Hello, Third Elder!”
No matter if it was the deacons who were in charge of the test or Bai De and the others, their expressions changed when they saw him. They bowed and greeted him.
They did not expect that this matter would actually attract the attention of the Outer Sect’s Third Elder.
The Third Elder was one of the three great heads of the Outer Sect.
Compared to the Elder Qi who was in charge of the recruitment of disciples, his status and strength were much higher.
His cultivation realm had even surpassed the Spirit Opening Stage of the Condensation Spin Stage.
Normally, the ordinary matters of the Outer Sect would not attract the attention of the Third Elder.
However, they did not expect that at this time, a small Outer Sect recruitment test would attract his attention.
When Ruan Xiude and the other disciples in the hall saw the deacons’ respectful attitude.
Even if they did not know this Third Elder, they knew that his status and strength were extraordinary. His ability should be far greater than these deacons.
They also bowed and greeted him.
“Get up.”
The Third Elder said indifferently.
Everyone stood straight.
When the Third Elder’s gaze landed on Ruan Xiude, he revealed a smile and said:
“You are Ruan Xiude, who has a Talent level of six?”
“Third Elder, I am Ruan Xiude!”
Ruan Xiude bowed and said.
He looked at the Third Elder.
“Name: Xi Jun.”
“Cultivation: First layer of the Spirit Opening Stage.”
“Talent: Supreme grade cultivation talent, medium grade strength talent, top grade speed talent, medium grade saber talent, medium grade Sharp Gold talent, top grade Gale Talent.”
“Martial Arts: Wind Essence Formula (medium grade sixth rank, Small Completion), Wind Splitting Saber Technique (low grade sixth rank, Small Completion), Flame Fist (low grade sixth rank, Small Completion) and Cloud Step (low grade sixth rank, Small Completion).”
“Acquired Treasure: None.”
Ruan Xiude looked at the attribute panel of the Third Elder in shock.
He was indeed a powerful warrior of the Spirit Opening Stage, and he had many treasures of different grades.
He was much more powerful than the deacons like Bai De.
Unfortunately, he only had less than 200,000 energy points, so he could not duplicate all of the Third Elder’s martial arts.
He could only choose the relatively important martial arts to duplicate.
Of course, he first chose the cultivation talent.
“Consuming 30,000 energy points. Successfully duplicated. You have obtained [Supreme grade cultivation talent].”
“Consuming 30,000 energy points, successfully duplicated. You have obtained [Top grade Speed talent].”
“You have consumed 30,000 energy points. Copying successful. You have obtained [Wind Essence Formula (Sixth Rank Medium Grade, Small Completion)].”
He quickly copied most of the treasures on Xi Jun’s body.
Of course, the nearly 200,000 energy points he had saved up were all used up.
And all of this was done in a very short period of time. No one noticed anything strange.
The Third Elder looked at Ruan Xiude and said with satisfaction,
“The Talent level you have is at least six degrees. All six attribute talents are at least medium grade, not bad.”
“It seems that you are qualified to be a true disciple.”
“You should be the number one genius among the new disciples this time.”
The Third Elder praised him repeatedly. Although he could not see Ruan Xiude’s true talent, he could sense that his foundation was incomparably strong, far surpassing all the new disciples.
Furthermore, he was currently in the secular world and had not truly entered the sect. This was an achievement that he had achieved under the circumstances where he had insufficient cultivation resources and lacked martial arts.
After he entered the sect, he would definitely be able to achieve even stronger abilities with sufficient resources.
Such a top genius was rare even in the entire Drifting Cloud Sect.
Ruan Xiude was worthy of his high regard.
On the stage, Bai De, Lan Zhe, and the other deacons were shocked when they heard this. Their eyes were filled with shock as they looked at Ruan Xiude.
The Third Elder actually said that Ruan Xiude was qualified to become a true disciple.
Did they hear it wrong?
In the entire Drifting Cloud Sect, there were only 28 true disciples among the tens of thousands of martial artists!
Every true disciple was an existence that was even more powerful than an Inner Sect Elder.
Whether it was their strength or status, they would have a higher chance of breaking through the Spiritual Essence Stage and reaching the top of the Sithen Kingdom.
They never thought that Ruan Xiude, who came from a small city, would actually have such potential!
They could not believe it.
However, when the Third Elder said this, they had no choice but to believe it.
The Third Elder was not only a big shot in the Outer Sect, but also an Inner Sect Elder. His vision was far superior to theirs.
If even the Third Elder said this, how could it be fake?
Immediately, the deacons were even more shocked.
At the same time, they glanced at Bai De from the corner of their eyes with envy and jealousy.
Bai De was actually able to bring back a top genius with the potential of a true disciple from a small city. His luck was too good.
According to the rules of the Outer Sect, the more outstanding the disciples they brought back were, the more generous the rewards they would receive.
Then, how much reward would Bai De receive?
Bai De could probably break through a few levels, and he could even reach the Condensation Spin Stage middle period.
At that time, the gap between Bai De and them would become even wider.
How could they not be envious?
At this moment, Bai De did not think about so much.
He was still in a muddled state and had not yet reacted.
He also did not expect that the genius Ruan Xiude, who he had found in an ordinary small city like the Dirtwich, would actually have the potential of a true disciple.
All the disciples on the stage also focused their gazes on Ruan Xiude, feeling incomparably shocked.
They were able to stand out from all the other cities and come to the Drifting Cloud Sect. They were definitely geniuses from the various cities.
They also had a certain understanding of the Drifting Cloud Sect.
Even if they were not very clear, they could still guess the significance of the true disciple.
This meant that he had a chance of reaching the upper echelons of the Drifting Cloud Sect.
The Drifting Cloud Sect was one of the four great powers of the Sithen Kingdom, and it was on par with the royal family of the Sithen Kingdom.
If someone could become the upper echelons of the Drifting Cloud sect, that would mean that he had reached the top level of the Sithen Kingdom.
Such a person was an extremely outstanding person.
They also did not expect that in front of them, they would test out a person with such potential.
At this moment, they were all extremely shocked, but at the same time, they did not dare to believe it.
If it wasn’t for the Third Elder, they would not have believed it at all.
But even so, they still did not dare to believe it.
Because this was simply too dreamy.
On the side, Deng Xingyuan clenched his fists tightly, his face distorted, and he roared in his heart.
“How is this possible?”
He was unwilling to believe that Ruan Xiude was actually a genius with the potential to become a true disciple.
“So what if his talent is strong? A genius who hasn’t grown up is still nothing!”
Deng Xingyuan looked at Ruan Xiude with a cold gaze.
But Ruan Xiude did not care about this.
“Thank you for your praise, Third Elder!”
Ruan Xiude replied in a neither humble nor overbearing manner.
He silently looked at the energy point that had once again increased in the Void in front of him.
