Legend of the Great Sage (Chapter 201-Chapter 300)

A while later, Mu Kui entered the formation too. He directly condensed a towering tree for the wood element and was evaluated as high jia for wood, displaying the Giant Lumberfolk’s extraordinary talent and affinity for the wood element.

The sun rose higher and higher as the cultivators were tested one by one. A genius would appear from time to time, leading to admiration and praise from everyone. Qian Rongzhi happened to be one of them. She also had an affinity for yin, which was evaluated as low jia. She was only slightly worse than Hua Chenglu.

Finally, it was Li Qingshan’s turn. He made his way into the formation slowly, and a vast wave of water suddenly expanded into the surroundings.

Yu Zijian sighed in admiration. “So powerful!” Hua Chenglu remarked too, “No wonder he can control the water elemented flying sword so easily.”

At the same time, he condensed a weapon and a boulder for metal and earth. Although they seemed much coarser compared to Yu Zijian’s treasured sword, they were still quite rare. A ball of white light appeared over his head, along with a small shadow.

“Quite interesting.” The male instructor smiled and took record of it. “High jia for water, low yi for metal and earth, mid bing for wood, low ding for fire, high yi for yang, and low bing for yin.”

If he knew the results of Li Qingshan’s previous test, he would not just find it as quite interesting anymore. Last time, the wave of water was only half this size, while the metal and wood elements were nowhere as prominent either.

Although it was not exactly impossible to change the talent and elemental affinity of a person, it was extremely difficult. It either required extremely precious pills and herbs, or decades or centuries of bitter cultivation.

However, the supernatural abilities from the black ox had directly turned Li Qingshan into something else, and gradually, he began to possess the talent and power only available to daemons.



A few more leaders took note of Li Qingshan in front of the Watermirror disc.

Everyone in the crowd looked at him with gazes of admiration and jealousy too.

“Brother Tian! Isn’t he the person that we saw in the Parlour of Clouds and Rain? His talent for the water element is so impressive!”

The young man in white said disdainfully, “It’s so-so. I’ll show you what impressive actually means later.”

A while later, the instructor called out, “Chu Tian!”

The young man in white smiled at the two girls beside him before stepping into the formation gracefully. His eyes were filled with absolute confidence.

Now, the testing period was almost over. The sun had almost risen to its highest point. Everyone felt slightly sick of this now, no longer focused on it, conversing among themselves instead. A few instructors discussed among themselves, ready to clear away everything as well and take everyone to go eat. They would then continue with other tests in the afternoon.

Suddenly, five colours, gold, green, blue, red, and yellow, rose up into the sky. Above the five corners of the formation hovered a fine, sheathed sword, a towering tree, ebbing waves of water, a scorching ball of fire, and a lofty, miniature mountain.

All five elements demonstrated their extremes.

The square immediately fell silent.

“They’re all high jia. No, even the formation can’t test it. Is there something wrong with the formation?” The instructor that took notes cried out, breaking the silence. Cries and sighs of admiration rose up in the surroundings. Everyone could not help but stare at the centre of the formation, at the young man in white called Chu Tian.

A genius. A true genius.

Even the various leaders almost ended up missing the Pure Yang constitution that Yu Zijian had demonstrated because it was just too rare, let alone these Qi Practitioners.

Yu Zijian had only stood in the formation for a moment before leaving in a hurry. Even if some people noticed the absence of darkness in the light, they would just dismiss it as having not looked carefully enough.

In the end, the only evaluation she received was high jia for yang, so the treatment she received was similar to what Mu Kui and Li Qingshan went through. It was nowhere near as shocking as Chu Tian right now.

“You’re so outstanding, brother Tian!” The eyes of the two girls by Chu Tian’s side lit up. Chu Tian smiled at them, as if he was saying, How’s that?

“The Five Elements constitution!”

The various leaders were all stunned. The intake this year sure was special. There was the Pure Yang constitution, and then the Five Elements constitution appeared. They were both extraordinary talents that rarely appeared even across the span of several decades. It would lead to quite a competition between the schools.

Li Qingshan watched on silently too. He lamented over how there sure were a lot of geniuses in the world! Suddenly, he felt the young man called Chu Tian shoot a provoking glance his way, which perplexed him slightly.

Chu Tian stood there for quite a while before slowly making his way out. He unfurled his fan and seemed extraordinarily elegant. If he was slightly more handsome, he would be perfect. However, no one noticed this small flaw of his right now. The talent he had displayed was enough to make up for everything. Strength served as the best appearance for a man.

Not only did the various leaders stop caring about the remaining tests, but even the Qi Practitioners present stopped paying attention. There was a racket on the square. The people who had demonstrated extraordinary talent in the testing earlier were now surrounded by quite a lot of people. Some clever Qi Practitioners had already chosen their targets to befriend. Everyone belonged to the same cohort, so they should have gotten along with one another anyway.

In particular, several dozen people filled Chu Tian’s surroundings. No one doubted the fact that this young man would rise up very soon.

Li Qingshan rubbed the jade ring on his thumb. He wondered how Xiao An was doing.

The ship that Xiao An was on instead sent them to a smaller island on the outskirts. The children were all taught the Innate Method of Practising Qi and bestowed with a single Qi Gathering pills. After that, they were taken to a hall where they began meditating in search of the mysterious feeling of qi.

Nearby, the female instructor stood with a pointer and a sunken expression. She would glance at Xiao An from time to time, appearing even more bitter now.



Although an instructor had already told her the entire story due to Wang Pushi’s orders, she became even more furious. This girl was clearly making a fool out of her!

And, the messaging instructor had told her that some of the leaders of the schools had become displeased with her, so she became both fearful and furious. She was tempted to give Xiao An a beating immediately, but the instructor also warned her that this child was not a regular child, but one that a few leaders might end up favouring. As a result, she was no longer able to lash out in anger, but that did not mean she was willing to just accept this.

She had already made up her mind. She would not let Xiao An have it easy. She refused to believe that she was unable to teach a single kid a lesson in the next few months with everything in her reach.

Xiao An ignored this hostility. Instead, she focused on practising qi. She did not find the Innate Method of Practicing Qi unfamiliar. When Li Qingshan practised this cultivation method, he had frequently come to her for guidance.

Finding the feeling of qi was enough for these children to turn red from holding their breaths, but it was no difficulty for her. In a single instant, a strand of true qi appeared, beginning to flow through her body.

After flowing for a while, it had strengthened by several fold. The Qi Gathering pill had already been absorbed completely, but the true qi continued to grow at an unbelievable rate.
