Every five years, Lingyun Sect would hold a grand Ascension Conference in various towns and cities under the sect.
Lingyunfang.
Outside the sect's headquarters, there was a huge sea of people, a lot of noise, and a very lively atmosphere.
The faces of most monks were filled with excitement and anticipation. This was a chance for ordinary monks in the sect to cross the class barrier and make a leap forward.
"I heard that there will be inner disciples coming to this year's Ascension Conference, but I don't know who will come. It would be great if it is Fairy Qingling. I was so impressed by her first glance back then."
An elegant monk in a green robe whispered to his good friend beside him.
"It is said that this is a big family in Lingyunfang. Several of their direct descendants are participating in the spirit test this time. They are highly valued by the sect, so they sent inner disciples."
Another elegant monk holding a jade fan took over the conversation, his words full of awe and envy.
"Humph, what do you know? It's because the Yu family has a single spiritual root genius, so an inner sect disciple came to personally receive him."
A young monk in tight clothes interrupted confidently, his words full of pride.
"Oh? Fellow Daoist, you know it so clearly. Could you be a senior cultivator of the Yu family?" A male cultivator with a long sword on his back and sharp eyes asked with a fist clasped.
"Hehe, I am a humble person, a member of the Yu family's side branch."
As the sun rose higher, several disciples wearing the standard long gowns of Lingyun Sect walked out from the base.
Behind this group of people was a middle-aged monk in gorgeous clothes, who slowly walked to the spirit-measuring stone.
Their arrival instantly quieted the noisy crowd, leaving only bursts of low breathing sounds.
"My fellow Taoists, welcome to the Lingyunfang Immortal Ascension Conference. Today, we will witness together the young men of the market transcending the mundane world and entering the immortal path."
The man in gorgeous clothes had a loud voice that echoed throughout Lingyunfang. His words were like an invisible force that made everyone's blood boil.
"I hope you all can get what you want and make the most of your youth. As monks, we should aim to achieve immortality and move forward courageously!"
A graceful woman appeared beside the man in gorgeous clothes. Her voice was gentle but equally inspiring.
The man in fancy clothes nodded, and the woman bowed slightly.
The disciples of Lingyun Sect, who were dressed in uniform, shouted in unison.
"Meet Uncle Liu."
Liu Yujun is a cultivator at the third level of foundation building and a cultivator of foundation building stationed in Lingyunfang.
"Meet Senior Sister Mu."
Mu Qingling, at the peak of the Qi Chain Stage, an inner sect disciple.
After the two nodded,
A bell rang above the base, and the Ascension Conference officially began.
Under the guidance of the sect's disciples stationed there, the boys and girls who took part in the spirit-testing went up the steps one after another and stood at the gate of the garrison compound.
Some of them look solemn, while others are full of confidence. Each little figure carries infinite longing and desire for the immortal path.
Cheng Qian sent Xu Luoshui to Feng Sen. Feng Sen looked at the dirty Xu Luoshui and whispered, "You didn't even give her a bath."
"I just arrived today. I'm afraid I'll be late."
Feng Sen nodded and sent Xu Luoshui to the center of the team.
Cheng Qian breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Xu Luoshui join the spirit-testing team.
"Where do you come from, beggar?" A little fat boy covered his nose, poked Xu Luoshui lightly with his fingertips, and said in a low voice.
"Yes, you are participating in the Immortal Ascension Conference. Isn't it disrespectful to the Immortals if you behave like this?"
The child in front of Xu Luoshui seemed to be trying to curry favor with the fat boy and turned around to join in.
Damn, you little brat, you are so serious about what you say.
Xu Luoshui rolled his eyes.
"My brother is the only one left at home, and he doesn't even know how to bathe and purify himself. All of us spiritual farmers are like this."
The little fat boy and the kid in front of him both looked at him with contempt.
The stinky farmer's delusion of turning things around.
If it wasn't for the fact that it was not advisable to act rashly during the Ascension Conference, they would definitely not let the descendant of a spiritual farmer get so close to them.
There was no way around it. The rules set by Lingyun Sect were something that the family members dared not to cross.
Lingyun Sect is too kind to these spiritual farmers.
The two of them snorted, no longer paying attention to Xu Luoshui and just kept some distance between them.
As time went by, the team slowly moved forward.
From time to time, people watching near the Ascension Conference could be heard either exclaiming or sighing.
The little guys in this group were becoming more and more nervous.
Xu Luoshui was very calm. As long as there was no problem with the spirit stone test, she would be able to intimidate everyone present today.
Liu Yujun was talking in a low voice to Mu Qingling beside the spirit stone.
"How is your master doing lately?"
"Thank you for your concern, Master, I hope you are doing well these days."
"Are you here for the kid from the Yu family this time?"
"Yes, Master Yu invited Master Haoyu to accept him as a disciple, and asked me to escort him personally."
"This Yu family... oh, they have ascended to great heights in one step."
"It still depends on the quality of the spiritual roots. There is a difference between single spiritual roots and single spiritual roots."
Liu Yujun smiled and said, "Yes, you know more about this matter. By the way, I see from your aura, are you ready to break through?"
"Master said there's no rush, and asked me to put some pressure on it and lay a solid foundation."
"Oh, I really envy you gifted people."
"Uncle Master, you are too kind."
When the team was almost reaching Xu Luoshui, there was a commotion in the field.
"Look, look, it's the turn of the Qilin from the Yu family to test the spirit."
"With this kind of bearing, he will definitely be a big shot in the future. Speaking of which, he also came from our Lingyunfang. I am very proud of him."
"Rong, what does the Yu family have to do with you? The Yu family is aiming to be a thousand-year-old family."
Cheng Qian ignored the arguments of the onlookers, stood on tiptoe, and stretched his neck to look inside.
A handsome young man walked up to the spirit-testing stone.
The palm of the hand was pressed on the palm print of the spirit stone.
Swish, a red light appeared on the surface of the spirit measuring stone, and then the scale on the back of the spirit measuring stone was recorded.
Buzz buzz buzz! The audience was in an uproar.
"Single spiritual root, it's a single spiritual root. My God, I actually witnessed the appearance of a single spiritual root with my own eyes."
For many people, this is something that is rare to see in a lifetime, and it can be used as a topic to show off during daily conversations.
Liu Yujun looked at Mu Qingling, then asked the person who was recording the scale behind the spirit stone, "How much?"
The calibration of the spiritual root, or the quality of the spiritual root, is a secret. Generally speaking, it cannot be known to outsiders. It is considered a secret of the sect and the cultivator themselves.
"Seventy-five."
"How is it?" He turned and looked at Mu Qingling.
"It's just average, barely a top-grade fire spirit root."
Mu Qingling, a top-grade water spiritual root, is said to be infinitely close to an earth-grade spiritual root.
Even in those Nascent Soul sects, he is a rare genius of the Lingyun Sect.
"Silence, continue."
Mu Qingling led Yu Dazhi to her side and shouted softly to the noisy scene.
The monks who were watching, the monks of the Yu family, and those who were queuing, all became quiet after a moment of calmness.
Finally it was Xu Luoshui's turn.
She came to the spirit-testing stone.
Everyone was talking about it.
"Where did this sloppy girl come from?"
"You don't even wash yourself properly. Isn't this disrespectful to our fairy and uncle?"
"Haha, maybe she's some wild girl from a spiritual farmer's family, dreaming of reaching the sky overnight."
"You don't know your own limitations. How can a phoenix fly out of a chicken coop?"
He ignored the disdainful looks from several disciples and the discussions around him.
He stretched out his black and greasy little hand and pressed on the handprint.
Swish, a golden light flashed on the surface of the spirit stone.
"No, it's impossible. How could it be possible? How could this wild girl have only one spiritual root?"
The young man in front of Xu Luoshui had a look of disbelief on his face. He only had three spiritual roots, how could a wild girl be stronger than him?
Liu Yujun and Mu Qingling, who were chatting and waiting for the ceremony to be completed, were also startled.
Especially Mu Qingling, who immediately asked, "Scale."
"No...no...no scale."
