Chapter 149: Lower Half of the Assets

y knelt down on the ground.Even the grass and trees bowed their heads, mountains trembled violently, and rivers ceased to flow.Looking afar, the entire world of mountains and seas submits to all spiri...With Xiao Zheng's command, all the cultivators of the Tongmai realm stepped forward one by one to participate in the test.

Because it was done in public and only two people were involved at the same time, it also ruled out the possibility of anyone wanting to cheat.

But for the onlookers, this was a moment where they dared not even breathe. After all, they were all cultivators, with auras that stretched far and wide. If one of them let out even a slightly larger breath, it could easily blow away those sesame seeds.

Although nearly a thousand people participated in the test, each person only had ten seconds, so the test was conducted very quickly.

One by one, cultivators from various backgrounds completed the test, but their scores were appalling.

The best performers managed to put in as many as three sesame seeds, while the vast majority of people couldn't even get a single one into the bottle.

After all, ten breaths is really too short a time, and they had never practiced anything like this before. A few moments of trying wouldn't be very helpful.

Moreover, even if one were to try to pick up these sesame seeds by hand, it would be likely to miss them. Let alone trying to pick them up one by one with spiritual energy.

Although Xiao Zheng always wore a stoic expression, it was impossible to miss the increasing sadness in his eyes.

They were truly sincere in their desire to find some promising disciples for the sect this time, so they had spread the word long ago, which is why so many cultivators came to the Luo family.

But as more and more cultivators who had finished the test came forward, none of them met the requirements. How could he not be disappointed!

One of the cultivators couldn't help but speak up, "Master Xiao, could you tell us what the specific criteria for passing the test are That way, we can have a better understanding."

"Yeah, within ten breaths of time, how many sesame seeds does it take to pass the test"

Facing everyone's inquiries, Xiao Zheng was as if he hadn't heard them at all, ignoring them completely. It was Xie Xiaoyong beside him who kindly explained the situation.

"For you, putting in five sesame seeds counts as passing, six is considered middle-level talent, seven is upper-middle level talent, eight is high-level talent, nine is top-tier talent, and ten is perfect talent!"

Seeing Xie Xiaoyong's amiable nature, the cultivators couldn't help but ask again: "Is there anyone in your sect who can pass such a test"

"Of course!" Xie Xiaoyong smiled, "Back then, all of us participated in such tests. Although our talents were mediocre, we could still put in six or seven cores. As for Senior Brother Xiao, he could put in eight."

"Can you get one that holds ten"

"Naturally!" Xie Xiaoyong's face showed a hint of admiration. "Not to mention the elders, but among our peers, there is a senior brother Guan who can do ten!"

One breath, which is the time it takes for an ordinary person to take one breath, ten breaths, put ten sesame seeds into the jade bottle!

This statement made most people unable to help but show doubt on their faces!

Xie Xiaoyong obviously saw that the crowd didn't believe what he said, so as his words fell, he raised his hand, making a vague grab. A sesame seed was easily picked up by the spiritual energy shot from his fingertips and placed into the bottle.

Then, Xie Xiaoyong's fingers moved constantly, one sesame seed after another falling into the bottle. And when ten breaths had passed, there were a total of seven sesame seeds in the bottle.

Looking at these seven sesame seeds, Xie Xiaoyong's face showed a hint of helplessness. "My master said that my control over spiritual energy has reached its peak. Unless there is a great opportunity, I will not be able to make further progress," he said.

Xie Xiaoyong's personal demonstration left everyone dumbfounded, and the suspicion on their faces naturally turned into shock.

Even some cultivators from blessed lands shook their heads, because they felt they couldn't do it themselves, but Xie Xiaoyong still felt dissatisfied.

After finishing the demonstration, Xie Xiaoyong smiled faintly at the remaining cultivators and said, “Alright, you continue!”

Her smile, like a flower blooming, instantly gave those cultivators before her a boost of confidence. They hurriedly stepped forward one by one to continue their tests.

It is unknown whether it was Xie Xiaoyong's demonstration that had an effect, or for some other reason, but in the following tests, a cultivator finally appeared who could grasp five sesame seeds!

You passed, stand aside!

When Xiao Zheng uttered these words, the cultivator was practically beside himself with excitement, and his entire family was beaming with joy.

This means that this person has already become a disciple of the Yaoshén Sect.

Although he had the worst aptitude, even if he could only become a second-rank alchemist in the end, it would still be a great help to his family.

More importantly, from then on, they forged a connection with the Yaoshhen Sect.

As time passed and almost everyone had finished the test, only three people passed, all of whom caught five sesame seeds.

This result left Xiao Zheng very dissatisfied, but when he raised his head and saw Jiang Yun standing in front of him, a smile still appeared on his face. "Jiang Daoist, I wonder if you can give me a surprise!"

"Humph!"

Before Jiang Yun could speak, Luo Lingxiao, who stood beside him, couldn't help but let out a cold snort.

Although he dared not ridicule Jiang Yun again, he still openly displayed his hostility towards him.

Gingercloud didn't mind at all, instead taking a step back and saying, "So Young Master Luo is here too. I didn't see you just now. Since Young Master Luo is the host, why don't you go first!"

Actually, it wasn't just him. Everyone present had already seen Luo Lingxiao, but no one was willing to go up and greet him.

After all, even if I show goodwill now, Luo Lingxiao will probably think that I'm deliberately mocking him.

However, everyone was quite curious about how the young master of the Luo family would perform in the test.

Upon hearing Ginger Cloud's words, Luo Lingxiao ceased his verbal attacks. After calming down his emotions, he spread open his palm, and with a surge of spiritual energy, he reached towards the sesame seeds before him.

After ten breaths, Luo Lingxiao let out a long breath and finally a smile of excitement appeared on his face.

Six!

He, who possessed a dual-channel body, was indeed superior to others in his control of spiritual energy. He successfully grasped six sesame seeds.

This score indicates that he possesses middling talent, enough to qualify for entry into Yaoshén Sect and become one of its disciples.

More importantly, with his identity as a disciple of the Yaoshen Sect, he could continue to firmly hold onto his position as young master, even more secure than before, until he became the head of the Luo family!

Hearing the exclamations of astonishment and envy from the crowd around him, Luo Lingxiao finally raised his eyebrows with pride, sweeping away the humiliation he had suffered during the previous competition.

At this moment, he was no longer silent. He had fully recovered his status as the young master. He lifted his head, a smug expression on his face, and said to Jiang Yun: "Friend Jiang, now it's your turn! As a disciple of the Wudao Sect, don't disappoint us!"

Seeing Luo Lingxiao's smug look, Jiang Yun also didn't bother to argue with him. He walked in front of Xiao Zheng, just about to reach out and release his spiritual energy, but Luo Lingxiao suddenly spoke again: "Daoist Jiang, please wait a moment!"

Jiang Yun's palm hovered in the air, turning to look at Luo Lingxiao and ask, "Young Master Luo, is there anything else"
