The test stone instantly began to change. Just like before, the stone changed from white to yellow, then from yellow to orange, then to red, purple, and even back to black.

Bai Di's face was extremely ugly.

She couldn't understand why Bai Ying had no other talismans on her body. Why couldn't the elders detect them?

Everyone at the scene was completely stunned.

Wasn't it said that Bai Ying's strength was enhanced by that talisman?

But now, the testing stone has turned black again?

They all frowned as they looked at Bai Ying's family members. Hadn't they been so certain that Bai Ying had cheated?

They even made it sound so convincing that Bai Ying's own parents stepped forward to condemn her and admit her mistakes. They said she was jealous of Bai Di and used despicable means to get first place!

But what's going on now?

Even after the talismans were removed, Bai Ying's strength did not decrease in the slightest!

People started discussing it.

However, just as everyone was filled with doubt, something even more unexpected happened.

The black testing stone in Bai Ying's hand changed again.

The already deep black became even more intense, so dark that it seemed to suck in one's very soul.

When the black color becomes extremely concentrated, a variety of colors slowly emerge on the surface of the test stone.

Streaks of light, like sprites, danced and shimmered merrily on the stone's surface. Under the light, the black gradually faded, while the colors grew ever more intense, constantly blending and shifting.

In the blink of an eye, the entire test stone was like a magnificent rainbow falling into it, completely transforming into a colorful and breathtakingly beautiful sight!

For a moment, the entire square fell silent.

Everyone present was completely stunned by this scene.

When the test stone turned black, they were already dumbfounded, thinking that it was a rare thing in the world.

But now, this blackness has transformed into such a dazzling and colorful appearance, far exceeding their imagination.

The crowd gaped, their eyes filled with shock and disbelief, as if they were in a hallucination, unable to pull themselves out.

But what's even more shocking is what happened next: the stone tablet next to it, which symbolized the ranking of strength, also underwent an astonishing change.

Previously, although Bai Ying held the top spot in the rankings, her name was only located in the middle of the stone tablet. But now, under everyone's gaze, Bai Ying's name began to rise rapidly, as if it had been launched into a rocket. It surged forward with the strength of a surging tide. In the blink of an eye, it had reached the very top of the stone tablet, where it shone with its own unique light.

This immediately caused an uproar at the scene.

A burst of exclamations and shouts erupted from the crowd, the sounds rising and falling.

"What am I seeing? What is this?! My God! Are my eyes broken?"

"This is insane! What on earth is happening? Is this real?"

"Holy crap, Bai Ying really wasn't lying! That talisman didn't enhance her abilities; it actually weakened them! That's terrifying!"

Everyone was going crazy; what was happening was completely beyond their comprehension.

Even the most knowledgeable sect leaders and elders were stunned and dumbfounded by this scene!

Colorful...

The results of this test were terrifying and outrageous, completely exceeding everyone's expectations!

They stared at the testing stone in disbelief, then couldn't help but glance at the stone tablet.

I felt as if my brain had stopped, and I couldn't recover from this astonishing result for a long time. My body was also frozen in place, standing there, letting time pass, but I was still immersed in the shock brought by this shock.

However, what they didn't know was that Bai Ying's own aptitude would naturally prevent the testing stone from reaching such a level. It would stop at black at most.

However, this testing stone tests overall strength, not just talent, but also potential, and the strength of opponents previously defeated will also provide a bonus.

Bai Ying killed dozens of Nascent Soul stage experts, and even used her Nascent Soul stage cultivation to kill four Void Refinement stage cultivators and one Body Integration stage cultivator in the Cangmang Mountain Secret Realm.

Such a glorious and terrifying record brings a bonus effect that is enough to make the test results of the test stone completely off the charts, presenting this unprecedented and strange phenomenon.

Everyone stared blankly at the stone tablet.

Even many sect leaders and elders present at the scene could not achieve such test results.

At this moment, everyone looked at Bai Ying and was completely convinced.

However, one question, like a dark cloud, lingered in everyone's minds and could not be dispelled.

They simply couldn't understand why Bai Ying, who possessed such terrifying strength, would affix that talisman to her body to reduce her power, allowing herself to be misunderstood and fall into a predicament where she had no way to defend herself.

Immediately, the audience erupted in discussion, whispering amongst themselves.

Why would Bai Ying affix a talisman that weakens her power to herself?

"It's really strange, don't you think?"

As Bai Ying listened to these voices, her cold gaze, like a sharp knife, shot straight at Zhou Ying.

The sarcasm in his eyes was so intense it was almost overflowing.

"Why carry this talisman on your person... well, you should ask my dear mother."
