Chapter 63: Dazzling Eyes

  "No, he really only has the cultivation of Three Talents Heaven." Bai Qingya's delicate face was full of bitter smiles, and she also stared blankly at Ji Changkong, unable to understand why his yuan force was so profound.

  "What a joke! A Tian Shi from the Three Talents Heaven, how can you possibly control the largest black inkstone so easily?" Tan Li was clearly disbelieving, and she leaned in close to Bai Qingya, suddenly laughing softly: "Qingya, what's the relationship between this little guy and you? You always keep a proper distance from men, but this time you personally brought him over. Is there something...?"

  I don't know if it's because I recalled some embarrassing scenes, but Bai Qingya's face turned red as she hastily said, "Lisi, what nonsense are you talking about! His name is Bai Hui, he's my cousin!"

  "Hehe, these days, it's hard to talk about sister and brother things..." Tan Lila drew out her voice, hehe, giggling.

  Wow!

  A grindstone-sized black inkstone fell steadily onto the round platform.

  Ji Changkong showed interest and asked Tan Li with a smile, "Are there any other tests? Hehe, this test is quite interesting. Is there an evaluation standard?"

  "You have a power that far surpasses the average three-talented heavenly scholar, young one's future is boundless!" Tan Li praised and drew a stroke on the paper in front of her, handing it to Bai Qingya, smiling: "Qingya, I don't need to test him here, take him to try condensing his yuan power."

  Taking over the paper handed over by Tan Li, Bai Qingya took a look and exclaimed: "The overall strength is beyond grade! Sister Li, your evaluation is really high!"

  "This kid's abilities are obvious, no matter who tests him, they'll all come to the same conclusion! I'm not biased towards him." Tan Li smiled and looked up at some people on the platform, saying: "You see, those guys up there have also noticed the situation here. As long as he doesn't make a big mistake in the next test, those cunning old men will definitely be fighting to get him."

  Following Tan Li's line of sight, Ji Changkong found that some of the Jin Yi Wei Tian Shi who were originally only paying attention to the battlefield were indeed staring at him with sparkling eyes, seemingly very curious about his next move.

  "Go! Xiao Hui, follow me to the place where we condense Yuanli." Bai Qingya waved the paper in her hand and brought Ji Changkong to a small artificial pond filled with clear water. The pond was about one mu (a unit of area) in size, and the clear water reached the bottom. Several young people were under the guidance of a plump old woman, using Yuanli to condense the clear water into various shapes.

  There are also a few older Tian Shi who don't rely on Tan Zhong's clear water at all, but instead use their own inner yuan force to condense various flowers, grasses and strange beasts in front of them. This is the manifestation of the peak state of the Three Talents!

  "Hey, Granny Wang, busy? I brought someone over to test something." Bai Qingya came over and greeted the plump old woman with a smile.

  "Ah, it's Xiao Ya, come over quickly!" Wang Rong had someone move back a bit further and waited for Bai Qingya to arrive. After taking the paper handed over by Bai Qingya, she exclaimed: "The original power is overwhelming!"

  Looking at the vast sky in surprise, Wang Rong said: "Young man, you try first to flow yuan force into Tan Zhongqing water, bring out the clear water from the pool, and condense it into the real object I want."

  Ji Changkong nodded slightly, and the yuan force in his body stirred. The clear water in front of him suddenly flew out in a large cluster, like a big water ball condensed in mid-air without dispersing.

  "Table!" "Round stone!" "Fine horse!" "Python!"

  Wang Rong's voice was urgent, and she shouted out four things.

  Suddenly, the big water ball rotated in a circle with a gurgling sound, without a single drop of water splashing out. A small square table made of condensed water appeared, and just as Wang Rong's second "round stone" fell, the four legs of the table retracted and transformed into a large round boulder.

  The shape of the galloping horse and the python, after two changes, vividly appeared in front of Wang Rong. After the horse and python took shape, they also made running and slithering movements, just like a horse galloping and a python emerging from its den.

  "How wonderful!"

  Wang Rong applauded and praised, turning her head to smile at Bai Qingya: "The little guy's control over the yuan force is extremely skilled. In such a short time, not only did he condense four objects in a row, but not a single drop of water splashed out. The dead objects are still, while the living ones are galloping, truly extraordinary!"

  Bai Qingya smiled and nodded, also very happy.

  "Hey young man, don't rely on the clear water in the urn, try to condense objects with your original power!" Wang Rong's face, full of wrinkles, squeezed out a brilliant smile.

  On the viewing platform, more and more powerful Tian Shi noticed Ji Changkong. They would look at the young Tian Shi fighting in the battlefield for a while, then turn their heads to look over here, using their hearts to expect Ji Changkong's next performance.

  Against everyone's expectations, Ji Changkong shook his head and smiled: "To condense the yuan force into a real object, the three spiritual realms of heaven - spirit, will, and consciousness must be cultivated to perfection. I can only make saliva and blood contain yuan force, but not yet refine them thoroughly. For now, it's still impossible for me to purely use yuan force to condense objects."

  "Ah..."

  Plump Wang Rong exclaimed, her face full of surprise, "Your yuan force is extremely dense and has surpassed the level, your control over yuan force has also reached an exquisite level, I thought you had already cultivated to the peak of the Three Heavens Realm!"

  Hesitating for a moment, Wang Rong was not only not disappointed at all, but her eyes were shining brightly, as if she had thought of something. "Young man, your basic skills are really solid! Not bad! Really not bad! Xiao Ya, this little guy has unlimited potential!"

  After a pause, Wang Rong pressed the paper handed over by Bai Qingya, frowned and thought for a moment, then drew another stroke on it before handing it back to Bai Qingya, saying: "In the one-on-one comparison later, you can choose a test that is suitable for his spiritual, willpower, and perception. This little guy's yuan force is thick, control is precise, and even if he fights against someone with a slightly higher boundary, he won't necessarily lose!"

  "Original Power Mastery - Jing! Can transcend levels and challenge!" Bai Qingya held the paper returned by Wang Rong, read it in a low voice, her face full of surprise, said: "Thank you, Wang Poji words!"

  "What are you thanking me for, you little scamp?" Plump Wang Rong's face turned serious, then broke into a smile again: "This little guy is indeed extraordinary. I've seen so many so-called young talents, but I haven't seen anyone with basic skills as solid as his!"

  Ji Changkong listened to the conversation between the two with a hint of a smile at the corner of his mouth, not interrupting. From Wang Rong's words, he truly realized that Mo Yunyi's decision back then was absolutely accurate. If it weren't for Mo Yunyi telling him not to rush into practicing the Tian Shi secret technique, but instead to solidify his foundation and lay a firm groundwork for the first Yuan Heaven and Two Instruments Heaven, today's test would definitely have been a breeze.

  Suddenly, a middle-aged man dressed as a steward jumped down from the viewing platform and rushed to Ji Changkong's face, shouting: "Young brother, are you interested in coming to our Zhu family? As long as you come to our Zhu family, we guarantee to give you the best Tian Shi secret skills. Once you break through to the Four Symbol Heaven realm, we will immediately recommend you to join the Imperial Guard, and your future will be boundless!"

  "Thank you, Zhu Lao, but my younger brother doesn't have such plans for the time being." Before Ji Changkong could even speak, Bai Qingya hastily stepped forward and stood in front of him to refuse.

  "Is that so......" The old servant looked somewhat disappointed, nodded and didn't say anything else, turned around and went up to the watchtower, quietly reporting to a brocade-robed elder who was the first to notice Ji Changkong.

  The old man gazed at Ji Changkong with shining eyes, listening to the low voice of the old servant's report, and then shook his head somewhat helplessly, seemingly extremely disappointed.

  "Xiao Hui, go, the next match is the main event, you rest first and don't worry about anything, I'll take care of everything." Bai Qingya pulled Ji Changkong's sleeve and led him to a resting area filled with cushions. After he sat down, she took the paper with Tan Li and Wang Rong's comments and went to a crowded area to report something.

  After a while, Bai Qingya walked over with a smile and sat down on a nearby cushion before Ji Changkong could speak. She explained in a low voice: "This is a special venue for the various families of Tianshui City and some Tianyi sects from the Water Cloud Country to select outer disciples and offerings. Some individuals who do not belong to any family or sect, scattered cultivators and young talents, usually come here to try their luck if they want to enter a prestigious family or sect."

  "Large families and major sects naturally have an advantage, having accumulated over the years. They often possess complete Heavenly Master secrets and techniques, with sufficient yuan stones and various rare materials."

  "While ordinary cultivators are most lacking in this regard, without sufficient primal stones and guidance from seniors, the path of cultivation for heavenly scholars will be much more arduous. If they can enter these large clans or sects and borrow their resources, talented ordinary cultivators can immediately stand out, not only having the opportunity to enter the Tian Shui City's aristocratic institutions but also occupying a position in the large sects. With status and position, they can enjoy even more heavenly scholar resources, and their future progress will be much faster than cultivating alone."

  "Of course, if you enter these large families or sects, while enjoying their heavenly resources, you also have to work for them and be bound by their rules."

  "I know you're not lacking in talent, I brought you here this time not hoping for you to be discovered by them, but because I think your combat experience is too little. Coming here and fighting with those people can help you accumulate some experience, there are people watching, so it won't come to a life-or-death situation, it's a good opportunity to hone yourself."

  "Moreover, there are many hidden dragons and crouching tigers here, with numerous masters and some rare and unusual techniques from the Heavenly Mountains occasionally appearing. Even if it's just to broaden your horizons, it's not bad, what do you think?"

  Ji Changkong nodded and smiled: "Thank you, Bai sister."

  "Don't be polite to me!" Bai Qingya scolded with a glance at Ji Changkong, and said with a smile: "Wait for it, it should be your turn soon. Remember, when we fight later, use restraint in your moves, minor injuries are fine, but don't take anyone's life."

  "Uh-huh."

  "Bai Hui! Tong Yuan Jian!" Just then, a loud shout came from a newly vacated battlefield.

  "Go, be careful, the people you're fighting now should be at your level. If you win three consecutive battles, you'll be promoted to a Three Talents Heaven's Peak cultivator who has cultivated spirit, awareness, and will." Bai Qingya gently pushed Ji Changkong back with one hand and said in a low voice.

  She stood up, her heart as clear as a mirror, and calmly walked towards the battlefield where the shouting was coming from.
