Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

#2784 - Have you ever learned what shame is?

Six-grade Immortal Talent!

The sons of the powerful and influential felt as if a heavy hammer had struck their hearts.

They were so angry that their breathing became erratic.

That damned rogue cultivator, Yuan Chu, what virtues or abilities did he possess to actually have a six-grade Immortal Talent!

Most of these sons of the powerful and influential only possessed a five-grade Immortal Talent within this Realm of Legends.

From the moment they were in their mothers' wombs, they had elders in their families expend rare resources to nourish them, and after birth, they were raised soaking in medicinal liquids.

Yet, they only reached five or six grades!

They never expected that this bottom-tier rogue cultivator could actually possess a six-grade Immortal Talent, on par with them!

The sons of the powerful and influential were so angry that they felt short of breath, with an urge to vomit blood.

Damn it!

They came to see Yuan Chu make a fool of himself, but in the end, they became the joke.

Just now, they were still mocking his one-grade Immortal Talent, a rogue cultivator indulging in wishful thinking.

But who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, he would slap them in the face with his six-grade Immortal Talent, causing them to feel a burning sensation on their faces, along with anger and unwillingness.

"Ah! Ah!"

Just as the sons of the powerful and influential were looking at each other, their faces extremely gloomy, someone suddenly cried out in alarm.

"What are you yelling about?

A six-grade Immortal Talent is only on par with me, what's there to yell about!"

One of the sons of the powerful and influential scolded that person.

"No, it's not six grades!"

That person pointed towards the Hall of Affairs.

Immediately, the sons of the powerful and influential all looked over, and they were all stunned.

The Immortal Testing Stone lit up again, reflecting the seventh Immortal Lotus!

Seven Immortal Lotuses floated in the void, flowing with immortal light and filled with Daoist rhythm.

The immortal light shone on Jun Wuxie, making his body seem shrouded in a hazy immortal glow.

Seven grades!

Seven-grade Immortal Talent!

"No! Impossible!"

Some sons of the powerful and influential couldn't accept it, and cried out in anger.

Many of them only had five-grade Immortal Talent, but this rogue cultivator actually had seven grades, a full two grades higher than them, it was too outrageous!

They couldn't accept it and didn't want to believe it.

Just now, they were still mocking Yuan Chu, saying that his Immortal Talent was low, and wanting to pass the selection test was just wishful thinking.

As a result, the other party actually tested out a seven-grade Immortal Talent!

Seven grades, higher than everyone present!

In the entire Hall of Miscellaneous Affairs, only a few disciples who participated in the test had reached seven grades!

How could a rogue cultivator have such strong Immortal Talent?

Rogue cultivator, as the name suggests, meant that they didn't have the inheritance of a cultivation family.

Such people's families weren't cultivation families, so they shouldn't have ancient blood ancestors, and their bloodlines should be far inferior to disciples from cultivation families like themselves.

But how did this rogue cultivator do it, how could he possess such bloodline potential, reaching seven-grade Immortal Talent!

"I don't believe it, there must be a problem!"

"That's right, it's impossible for him, a rogue cultivator, to have seven-grade Immortal Talent, the Immortal Testing Stone must be malfunctioning, it must be!"

Many sons of the powerful and influential couldn't accept this fact, and in their anger, they almost lost their minds, speaking without thinking and forcibly denying it.

"Shut up!"

Deacon Li shouted coldly.

Those sons of the powerful and influential immediately stopped talking, their faces unsightly.

"You bunch of good-for-nothings, it's one thing to have talent inferior to Yuan Chu, who came from a rogue cultivator background, but the facts are right in front of you, and you still want to forcibly deny it!

What, you pride yourselves on being sons of the powerful and influential, aren't you usually very arrogant?

Now you don't even dare to admit the facts?

You started by slandering Yuan Chu, saying that he was a rogue cultivator with low Immortal Talent, mocking him for not being able to pass the selection test.

The facts prove that his Immortal Talent grade is higher than yours.

You are not even as good as a rogue cultivator.

Putting aside your family background, you are nothing, in what way can you compare with Yuan Chu, who came from a rogue cultivator background?

Still jealous, it's really laughable, do you even have the right to be jealous?

Think about your lives, starting from your mothers' wombs, you were nourished with rare resources, and after birth, you were cultivated with various rare immortal treasures, and even now you only have five or six grade Immortal Talent.

Yuan Chu came from a rogue cultivator background, without family, without background, without a supply of rare resources, everything relied on his own struggle.

And today, he tested out seven-grade Immortal Talent!

People still have to rely on themselves, don't always think about your family background.

Even without your family background, Yuan Chu can still suppress you so that you can't lift your heads, this is the fact.

You can't accept it?

Can't accept it, and that can change the facts?

Just now, you were ignorantly mocking, now you are forcibly denying, have you ever learned what shame is in your families?

Your shameless behavior is really disgracing your families, a disgrace!"

A group of sons of the powerful and influential clenched their fists, lowered their heads, not daring to speak, their faces flushed red, and a deep sense of humiliation pierced their fragile self-esteem.

"Sigh, why do you have to compare with me, you can't compare, and in the end, you will only humiliate yourselves.

Your competitors are among yourselves, the sons of the powerful and influential, not me."

Jun Wuxie spoke earnestly.

These sons of the powerful and influential were, in a way, from the same generation as his disciples.

In his eyes, they were just a group of immature children, with little experience, lacking precipitation, ignorant, with arrogant personalities, and both sensitive and fragile hearts.

"You…"

The sons of the powerful and influential were already humiliated by Deacon Li's merciless words, and upon hearing Jun Wuxie's words, they were immediately filled with extreme anger, their blood rushing upwards, and several of them spat out a mouthful of blood.

The other disciples couldn't help but look at each other.

The sons of the powerful and influential were actually angered to the point of vomiting blood!

Usually, how arrogant and domineering they were, strong and unreasonable, always high above.

They never expected that today they would suffer a loss here, and be angered to the point of vomiting blood on the spot.

They wanted to laugh, but they didn't dare, they could only forcibly hold it back, and the muscles on their faces trembled as a result, their expressions were extremely wonderful.

"What are you still doing here, why don't you hurry up and get out, do you want this deacon to give you a ride with a feeling of flying?"

Deacon Li shouted coldly at the sons of the powerful and influential.

"Deacon Li, aren't you being too unreasonable to them, are you targeting the disciples of the various aristocratic families?"

Deacon Yin's face had been dark the whole time, and he finally couldn't bear it anymore.

After all, he had received a lot of benefits from the aristocratic families, and he couldn't just watch the sons of the aristocratic families being wronged like this.

"This deacon is handling matters impartially, how can the Hall of Affairs be a place for them to come and watch, and they are also disrupting the normal testing procedures.

According to the rules of the sect, they should be punished.

What, Deacon Yin thinks that I am unfair, and biasedly protecting these sons of aristocratic families, and insists that I punish them?"

"You!"

Deacon Yin was choked so hard that he almost couldn't catch his breath.

Those sons of the powerful and influential saw that Deacon Yin had lost the upper hand in words, and were immediately filled with unwillingness, and left in a dispirited manner.

They didn't dare to continue staying here, otherwise, if the two deacons fought, they would end up suffering.

"Yuan Chu, congratulations, seven-grade Immortal Talent, you really didn't disappoint me!

This time, the Supreme Elder is recruiting personal disciples through a martial arts tournament, if you are lucky, maybe you really have a chance."

Deacon Li's words were intentionally said in front of everyone.

Of course, he knew that Yuan Chu's Immortal Talent was extremely high, and definitely more than seven grades.

The latter sentence was from the bottom of his heart, hoping that he could have this opportunity.

"Humph!"

Deacon Yin sneered from the side, "There are hundreds of thousands of disciples who passed the selection test this time, and he thinks he can stand out from these hundreds of thousands of people, gain the favor of the Supreme Elder, and become his personal disciple?

Deacon Li, you are daydreaming, it's extremely ridiculous!"

"Everything is possible, until the very end, who dares to say that Yuan Chu has no chance!"

"I dare to assert that he has no chance of being favored by the Supreme Elder and accepted as a personal disciple!

What, Deacon Li, are you not convinced?"

Deacon Yin sneered, "If you are not convinced, how about we make a bet?"

Deacon Li's eyes twitched when he heard this, and he retorted, "What bet, this is my expectation for Yuan Chu, every disciple who passes the selection test tomorrow has a chance, what's the problem?"

"Chickened out? I didn't expect that you, Deacon Li, would also have times when you chicken out.

Weren't you just saying that Yuan Chu had a chance?

Since you are so optimistic about Yuan Chu, why don't you dare to accept my bet?

If you don't dare to bet, it's okay, you just have to admit that you chickened out, at most you'll just be shameless, slap yourself in the face, what does it matter."

"You!"

Deacon Li was so angry that his chest rose and fell, he didn't expect that he would be tricked by this Yin person, and set up.

"Old Li, don't fall for his trick!"

The other two deacons on Deacon Li's side looked at his expression and couldn't help but remind him, worried that he would accept the bet in a fit of anger, and he would definitely be tricked severely.

After all, the fact was like this.

There were hundreds of thousands of competitors, and Yuan Chu's chance was almost equal to zero, too slim, unless there was a miracle, it was impossible for him to be favored by the Supreme Elder and accepted as a personal disciple.

Jun Wuxie originally wanted to transmit his voice secretly.

But after thinking about it, forget it.

Seeing this trend, even if he didn't transmit his voice, it was estimated that Deacon Li would still accept it in the end.

He could feel that Deacon Li's current inner emotions were already very intense, with an impulse to go all out, regardless of everything.

His relationship with Senior Sister Jinse was only known by Deacon Zhuang and Protector Zhou.

He also didn't want more people to know.

Deacon Li was just a deacon of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall, so he could stay out of some things to a certain extent, which would be safer.

If he knew about his relationship with the Supreme Elder.

That might give him more confidence and make him decide to join in and deeply participate in the internal strife of the sect, which would only bring him danger.

"Being a coward is being a coward, just admit it.

But hey, Deacon Li, you should think before you speak in the future, don't just blurt out whatever comes to mind when you get worked up, hahaha."

Deacon Yin sneered and laughed loudly.

"Laugh at your hammer, I'll bet with you!"

Deacon Li's stubbornness came up, he was a well-known stubborn donkey when he was young.

"Oh? You really dare to bet with me?

Very good, I didn't realize you still had some of your old stubbornness."

"Why are you talking nonsense, what are we betting on, I'll play to the end!"

"Well, what to bet on, Deacon Li, you don't seem to have anything that catches my eye.

Why don't we just be practical and bet on Heavenly Dao Coins?"

Deacon Yin held out two fingers, "Let's bet this number!"

"Two thousand Heavenly Dao Coins?" Deacon Li snorted, "I'll bet with you!"

"Two thousand? Are you looking down on yourself or looking down on me, Deacon Li?"

Deacon Yin said sarcastically, "What, after all these years, Deacon Li, you only saved two thousand Heavenly Dao Coins?

No way, is there such a poor deacon in my Jinyun Immortal Sect?

I'm talking about two hundred thousand!"

"You!"

Deacon Li's heart skipped a beat.

Two hundred thousand!

This bet is mostly to give money to that Yin guy.

Two hundred thousand is not a small amount.

He had saved this money for so many years, taking out two hundred thousand was like cutting a piece of flesh from his body!

Although he had been saving for a long time, he also needed to spend money during these years.

Due to his physical condition, he sometimes needed to buy some rare resources.

Therefore, he could only save a very small portion.

It took him a long time to accumulate such a sum of money.

Now, that Yin guy is asking for two hundred thousand!

At this time, Jun Wuxie really wanted to remind him that if he was going to bet, he should bet bigger, two hundred thousand was too little.

This was free money, there was no such thing as too much.

However, he couldn't say it, he couldn't let Deacon Li suspect his past relationship with the Supreme Elder.

Although, after tomorrow, his relationship with the Supreme Elder would be known to the entire sect.

But this kind of relationship was completely different from knowing each other in the past and being like siblings.

In the eyes of others, a close relationship in the past might lead to him choosing to take sides within the sect because of himself.

But the later master-disciple relationship was different, the probability of this happening would become very small.

"What, are you afraid, or are you saying you don't even have two hundred thousand?"

Deacon Yin began to provoke him again, using words to agitate him.

"Old Li, don't fall for his trick, he's clearly trying to provoke you!"

The two deacons beside Deacon Li advised.

"No!" Deacon Li waved his hand, "Don't try to persuade me, a man lives for a breath of pride.

Today, I'll take this bet, two hundred thousand it is!

Deacon Yin, if you want to bet, I'll play to the end!"

"Very good, you finally didn't chicken out."

Deacon Yin waved his finger and quickly wrote, immortal magic power condensed a betting agreement in the air, and then imprinted his spiritual mark on it.

Afterwards, he handed the betting agreement to Deacon Li.

Deacon Li took a look, signed his name, and left his spiritual mark.

At this point, the bet was established.

"Hahaha! You surnamed Li, I'll accept your two hundred thousand Heavenly Dao Coins with a smile, hahaha!"

Deacon Yin laughed loudly, it could be seen that he was really happy, his mood was extremely comfortable, his face was almost breaking into a smile.

Deacon Li sneered, "Be careful of being too happy and turning to sorrow, nothing is final until the end, no one can draw a conclusion.

You are complacent now, but tomorrow you may be crying your eyes out!"

Now that the bet had been signed, how could Deacon Li be willing to lose to him in terms of momentum?

"Your mouth is really tough, then let's wait and see, tomorrow we'll see who will be crying their eyes out.

I heard that you have been saving money to buy rare immortal treasures to treat the hidden injuries you suffered back then.

Well, I don't know how much you've saved over the years, after losing these two hundred thousand to me, will you still have enough money?

Forget it, this deacon won't say anymore, just wait to collect the money tomorrow.

This two hundred thousand that's delivered to my door is really too tempting."

"Wait!"

Deacon Yin was about to leave when Deacon Li stopped him.

"What, the bet has already been signed, are you trying to go back on your word?"

"I'm afraid you'll go back on your word!

It's not safe for either of us to keep the betting agreement, what if it's secretly destroyed?

Why don't we hand the betting agreement over to them for safekeeping, so that no one can deny the debt!"

Deacon Li's momentum was completely different from before at this time.

Thinking that since the bet had already been established and the money was lost, then he had to regain his momentum!

"Okay, that's exactly what I want, I see that you're driven mad by anger."

Deacon Yin casually gave the contract to the deacons present, "Everyone, you and the disciples present are witnesses to today's bet, you must keep this betting agreement safe."

"Don't worry, this betting agreement will not have the slightest deviation!"

Several deacons were very dissatisfied with Deacon Yin's blatant attempt to scam Deacon Li.

Deacon Yin didn't want to argue with them, anyway, he was sure to win tomorrow, he just needed to collect the money.

Two hundred thousand!

That was two hundred thousand Heavenly Dao Coins, which was not a small amount, but a small fortune, enough to buy many rare and not very important third-grade immortal treasures!

He was overjoyed, and even hummed a little tune as he left.

Jun Wuxie looked at Deacon Yin's back, his expression somewhat intriguing.

He took a few steps back and made way.

At this time, Mo Qingli stepped forward and came to the Immortal Stone Test.

Deacon Li and the others were immediately interested.

Su Qingqian was about to be tested, what would her immortal aptitude grade be?

Deacon Li only knew that Yuan Chu's immortal aptitude grade was extremely high, definitely above tenth grade.

But Su Qingqian was hard to say, after all, Yuan Chu seemed to be the one who dealt with those Undying Realm evil beings.

When Mo Qingli's palm was placed on the Immortal Stone Test and immortal power was poured into it, the Dao patterns on the immortal stone instantly became radiant.

One beam after another of immortal light shone in the void, evolving into one immortal lotus after another.

"One, two, three, four, five, six!

Sixth-grade immortal aptitude!"

Except for Deacon Li, the other deacons were shocked.

Yuan Chu's seventh-grade immortal aptitude was fine, but he didn't expect that Su Qingqian, who also came from a rogue cultivator background, actually had a sixth-grade immortal aptitude!

They felt unbelievable.

They knew that rogue cultivators with such immortal aptitude were extremely rare throughout the world.

Usually, rogue cultivators with high immortal aptitude had a powerful rogue cultivator master.

Because that kind of rogue cultivator was not an ordinary rogue cultivator, but was carefully selected by his master when he was looking for a successor all over the world, and the immortal aptitude grade would naturally not be low.

But Yuan Chu and Su Qingqian were not in this category, but their immortal aptitude grades were so amazing.

Deacon Li was a little disappointed, Yuan Chu's talent must be above tenth grade, but he didn't expect Su Qingqian to be so much worse, only a sixth-grade immortal aptitude.

In the eyes of others, it was already amazing for Su Qingqian, who came from a rogue cultivator background, to have a sixth-grade immortal aptitude.

But in his opinion, it had not reached the highest expectation in his heart.

He originally thought that Su Qingqian should be able to test out a seventh grade, and in fact, it might be more than a seventh grade.

He never thought that the final test result would be that she only had a sixth grade, which was quite a difference from what he had expected in his heart.

However, he didn't show his thoughts, but smiled with satisfaction, "Su Qingqian, you are also very good, although it's one grade lower than Yuan Chu, this immortal aptitude grade is also quite excellent.

I will register you now.

The two of you have passed the preliminary test, gather here tomorrow morning, and I will take you to the sect's Martial Arts Arena to participate in the subsequent selection, I wish you a chance to descend from the heavens and become a direct disciple of the Supreme Elder!"

"Thank you, Deacon Li, for your auspicious words, although the hope is slim, we will try our best, otherwise Deacon Li will lose those two hundred thousand."

"Hey, don't think so, don't put pressure on yourself because of this.

I've been a deacon for so many years, and I still have some savings.

For the sake of pride, I can afford to lose these two hundred thousand.

Besides, what if you succeed.

Alright, go back and rest early, recharge your batteries, and prepare fully for tomorrow's selection."

Jun Wuxie and Mo Qingli nodded and turned to leave.

After their backs disappeared, the two deacons beside Deacon Li glared angrily, blaming Deacon Li for being so easily provoked.

That was two hundred thousand!

For the sake of two hundred thousand, he should have endured it at the time, wouldn't it have been fine if he hadn't accepted Deacon Yin's challenge?

"You don't understand, the bet has already been signed, so don't mention it anymore, it's useless to say more, it's meaningless."

Deacon Li waved his hand.

He was willing to lose two hundred thousand purely for the sake of pride.
