On the high platform.
“Remarkable indeed, perhaps unparalleled in my years.”
Xue Jing still wore his patched robe, stroking his long beard with flickering eyes.
He was not surprised by Ying Bing’s bone structure.
“This is the promising talent you mentioned you encountered on your descent?”
A lazy voice sounded nearby.
The woman wore palace attire, her cheeks flushed, lounging lazily in a chair.
“It is her, but I wonder what level she will reach on the Ascension Stone Steps.”
Xue Jing glanced at the woman, revealing helplessness.
“I like this girl.”
The woman in palace attire drank wine recklessly.
The elders looked at each other in silence.
Are you sure it’s not because she’s breathtakingly beautiful?
“She is not suitable for the martial arts of your lineage.”
Xue Jing said helplessly.
“How is she unsuitable!” The woman raised her eyebrows.
“What do you mean? You’ve trained yourself to be like a furnace, and this girl clearly shouldn’t be under your tutelage.”
A cold voice intervened.
“Han He, are you looking for a fight?”
The woman clenched her fists, itching for a challenge.
Elder Han He subconsciously took a step back, snorting in fear.
“Calm down everyone.”
The voice was full of authority.
The Sect Leader spoke, and the woman reluctantly picked up her wine gourd and took another drink.
The elders exchanged glances.
Could it be that the Sect Leader is interested in that little girl?
…
Unconsciously, another incense stick passed.
In the meantime, five people had undergone bone examination.
Finally, it was Li Mo’s turn.
The old woman grabbed his shoulder, feeling a surge of energy enter him, ready to flow through his meridians.
But quickly, this energy dissipated.
Huh?
The old woman across from him frowned for the first time.
Breath can stimulate the organs and bones.
The better the bone structure, the stronger the reaction.
But.
This young man’s body showed no reaction at all.
It would have been fine if only that were the case, but his breath seemed to vanish like water into the sea.
If she hadn’t seen the youth standing there alive, she would have thought he was a stone.
After a moment’s hesitation, the old woman still wrote down his name:
“Li Mo, Class C, move on.”
“Thank you.”
Li Mo had expected this, and he bowed to the old woman.
He passed through the mountain gate with a normal expression.
“Ah, Class C, Father might not be pleased.”
“You’ll have to speak up for me then, Father listens to you.”
Li Mo laughed heartily, slapping the girl beside him on the shoulder.
Ying Bing was slightly surprised.
Class C talent was not far off from his memory.
But he didn’t seem discouraged.
Li Mo’s face remained indifferent, still cheerful:
“Three lives are predetermined, seven depend on effort.”
“Many can’t even enter the mountain gate, so I am already fortunate.”
There was something else he didn’t say.
Why rush, I have connections.
Ying Bing watched the boy’s carefree demeanor, which did not seem fake.
Well then.
At least the bottle of Pure Yang Pill he gave helped her open her meridians early, saving half a year.
His mindset was worth supporting; how far he could go was up to him.
Just then.
From a distance, an announcement by an official caught everyone’s attention again:
