Chapter 215: Fake Genius and True Genius
After a few breaths.
A powerful aura emanated from dozens of whirlpools.
Gantry test.
Once the standards set by a certain sect are reached, the sect will be notified and will send people over.
Since most of the Longmen tests were in the Lower Domain, those sects in the Middle Domain would have to pay a price to arrive as soon as possible.
Because of this, the Dragon Gate standards given by general sects are far beyond the standards for recruiting disciples.
If they were just ordinary disciples, they could be recruited at every disciple-recruiting conference. Why would there be the need to go through so much trouble to bring them back?
Those who are worthy of their cross-domain appearance are at least talented disciples.
This was also the reason why Qi Xuemei was a little nervous before. Even if Ruo Wei could pass the disciple-recruiting conference in Qionghua Valley, he might not be able to pass the Longmen test.
Unexpectedly, Ruo Wei gave her a huge surprise.
Twenty-one beams of light, twenty-one sects, this was something she had never expected.
Tang Ruowei let go of the Dragon Gate Stone with a somewhat panicked expression. She herself had not expected that so many sects would respond.
"Relax, this is a good thing."
Chu Ning noticed Tang Ruowei's panic, held her hand, and comforted her with a smile.
She is worthy of being my woman. Her talent in cultivation is top-notch.
There was also a hint of surprise in Zhuo Jincheng's eyes. Twenty-one sects, this was probably the best result in the Longmen test in the past hundred years.
The three supervisors of Lanjun Mountain were also shocked at this moment.
The Chengshan Region is not very strong, but the younger generation is so promising?
Not to mention the one who was accepted as a disciple by Taiyuan Peak, since he has a senior brother who has reached the level of a spirit transformation following him, his master must be at the elder level.
And now another genius who has reached the level of twenty-one sects has emerged.
If nothing unexpected happens, there will be no problem in becoming a god in the future.
Yue Yaotian was the only one with a gloomy expression on his face. When his master accepted him as a disciple, he felt that his future was incomparable to those people in Chengshan Domain.
Therefore, he never took the younger generation of Chengshan Territory seriously, and would not fight them head-on. He believed that he was not on the same level as these people.
His vision is set on the Central Region and on a broader stage.
But the guy named Zhao Qin who appeared earlier crushed his light, and now Tang Ruowei's talent is not worse than his.
"Who is conducting the gantry test?"
In the sky, a voice came from the fourth vortex with supreme majesty. As the voice fell, a middle-aged man walked out of it.
But the moment he walked out, the middle-aged man was stunned.
Because he felt the presence of several auras that were no weaker than his?
What's going on? Isn't he from the lower realm? How could there be a powerful god-transforming expert?
Is it the top ten lower domains?
There are fifty lower domains, and among the top ten lower domains, there are indeed powerful gods, but not that many.
Before Zhang Ren could figure out the problem, his attention was attracted by other whirlpools around him.
Twenty! Zhang Ren's pupils shrank, so apart from himself, there were twenty other sects that responded.
Hiss! A genius disciple.
Zhang Ren's expression became serious and his eyes fell on Tang Ruowei. At this moment, there was a faint colorful light on Tang Ruowei's body, which was a characteristic of the Gantry test.
With the appearance of Zhang Ren, cultivators came out of other whirlpools one after another, and they were all powerful cultivators at the level of God Transformation.
These powerful gods were just like Zhang Ren. They were a little confused after coming out, but then they looked at Tang Ruowei with fiery eyes.
Twenty-one sects responded, this is definitely a talented disciple.
"I come from the West Sea Gate of Canglan Territory."
"I am from Chifeng City in Jinglan Territory."
…
…
These sect deacons all looked at Tang Ruowei and introduced themselves.
Unfortunately, what these deacons don’t know is that Tang Ruowei has no idea which of their sects is the most powerful.
It was the first time that Tang Ruowei had heard of the Central Region and the Lower Region. She hadn’t even recognized all the names of the nine Central Regions. Not to mention Tang Ruowei, even Qi Xuemei was not clear about them.
Although Qi Xuemei was a Nascent Soul cultivator, she had not left Chengshan Region. All the news about the Central Region that she knew came from the notes left by the predecessors of Xiyue Sect.
There are not many sects recorded by these predecessors. One of the predecessors knew a little more about Qionghua Valley because she joined the Valley.
"My dear seniors!"
Tang Ruowei waited until these powerful gods introduced themselves, then said, "It is my honor to join your sect, but I have a favor to ask."
"Go ahead."
These powerful gods all spoke with a smile, saying that it was normal to give some preferential treatment to talented disciples when they were competing for resources.
Even if Tang Ruowei didn't mention it, they would have said it.
"As you all have seen, the domain I am in is experiencing a domain war. I want a domain war pardon."
After Tang Ruowei finished speaking, Zhang Ren and other powerful gods fell silent.
For several of them, it was because the sect did not have the power to pardon, while for some others, although it did, the sect's power to pardon was a matter of great importance and it was not something that their deacons could decide.
Zhuo Jincheng sneered. Tang Ruowei was really naive. Did she think the pardon power was easy to come by? To use the domain war pardon power, one had to be at least an elder. The ones who came were only deacons and did not have the qualifications at all.
As for going back to discuss with the elders of the sect, that was even more impossible. A genius disciple was not worth them sending a special message back.
There was silence.
"Can I take someone with me?"
These powerful gods were also silent. If it wasn’t during a domain war, it would be possible. But in principle, it was not possible during a domain war.
But these powerful gods are all shrewd people. Looking at the situation at the scene, they know that it is impossible to make the three supervisors go against their principles.
Tang Ruowei's heart sank, and Zhao Qin comforted her: "Tang Ruowei, don't worry, you can mobilize 20 sects, so Chu Ning will take off even faster."
In Zhao Qin's mind, Chu Ning's talent is higher than Tang Ruowei's. He will wait until Chu Ning passes the Longmen test and then choose a sect.
When Zhang Ren and other powerful gods heard Zhao Qin's words, their eyes lit up. In this small Chengshan area, there are more talented cultivators?
Is it the one standing next to this girl? Dozens of powerful gods scanned Chu Ning with their spiritual senses. Chu Ning only felt that dozens of eyes were staring at him, and he was like a naked person, exposed in front of these people.
"Brother Chu Ning will definitely be fine!" Meng Shuang also echoed Zhao Qin's words.
"Chu Ning, go up and try."
Xie Shouping encouraged Chu Ning. He didn’t know about the Longmen test, but it was indeed an opportunity for Chu Ning. At least it had a higher chance than refining a fourth-grade elixir.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Everyone's eyes were on Chu Ning, including those Jindan cultivators. Chu Ning did not hesitate. Taking part in the Longmen test was indeed an opportunity.
Chu Ning walked up to the Dragon Gate Stone and held it. Except for a few people from Xuantian Sect, everyone present had an expectant look on their faces.
However, after ten breaths, there was no response from the Dragon Gate Stone.
After fifteen breaths, still no beam of light appeared.
What's going on?
Everyone was a little bit incredulous, especially those who were close to Chu Ning. If we talk about cultivation, Chu Ning is above Tang Ruowei.
Tang Ruowei was able to attract responses from so many sects, so there was no reason why Chu Ning wouldn't have even a beam of light.
Feeling the surprised looks from Tang Ruowei and Meng Shuang, Chu Ning sighed inwardly. He had actually expected this result.
Everyone knows their own business. He was able to cultivate to the Golden Core Realm in such a short time. In the early stage, he mainly relied on the energy of the Longevity Fruit. Later, it was because of the opportunity provided by Wen Jinshan that gave him a chance to rapidly increase his strength.
In terms of talent, it's really not that good.
The resources he consumed to reach the Jindan realm were enough to cultivate five Jindan monks.
After thirty breaths, Chu Ning took the initiative to let go of the Dragon Gate Stone.
There was silence at the scene.
The expressions of these powerful gods became strange. Is this the genius you mentioned, who has a higher cultivation talent than this girl?
In the Longmen test, he didn’t even meet the standards for a sect to accept disciples.
"Hahaha, this Chu Ning is not a genius at all. He can reach his current level only because he got a great opportunity."
Yue Yaotian laughed loudly, his voice full of joy. He had finally defeated Chu Ning.
Chu Ning is a fake genius! Tang Ruowei took the initiative to step forward and hold Chu Ning's hand. She was afraid that her man would be disappointed, and she also used this action to tell everyone that no matter whether Chu Ning was a genius or not, Chu Ning was her Taoist partner.
"Don't worry, I'm fine."
Chu Ning gave Tang Ruowei a reassuring look, then looked at Xie Shouping: "I'm sorry to disappoint the master."
"I didn't accept you as my disciple because of your talent for cultivation."
Xie Shouping did feel a little regretful. It was a pity that Chu Ning failed to pass the Longmen test and could not escape the danger of the current domain war.
"There won't be any problem with this Dragon Gate Stone, right?"
Zhao Qin couldn't help but mutter that Chu Ning was not a genius. When he was in Daning County, he was superior to them.
If Chu Ning is not a genius, who else is a genius? "Junior brother, there are some magical medicines or some secret methods in this world that can make people's cultivation progress rapidly when they are at a low level, but any magical medicine will lose its effect after the Nascent Soul stage."
The old senior brother behind Zhao Qin whispered.
It is not uncommon to see cultivators like Chu Ning who have entered the Golden Core Realm at a young age but are not considered geniuses. A great opportunity is enough to make them so.
Once they reach the Nascent Soul stage, or even when they break through the Nascent Soul stage, there will be a clear gap between these cultivators and true geniuses.
After the Nascent Soul stage, each breakthrough in a small realm requires a long time, and at this time the importance of cultivating talent is reflected.
A genius cultivator makes a little more progress in cultivation every day than an ordinary cultivator, but a little bit of progress adds up to a lot, and after ten or a hundred years, the gap will be huge.
"According to the rules, if you fail to pass the Dragon Gate test, you are not allowed to leave the domain battle."
There was a ferocious look on Yue Yaotian's face. He had already predicted Chu Ning's death. Even if he didn't die now, when Luoyang Territory attacked, Chu Ning's fate would be doomed.
"And me, I haven't been tested yet."
Meng Shuang suddenly ran to the Longmen Stone and grasped it with her little hands.
Three breaths later, the Longmen Stone emitted a colorful glow and a pure black beam of light shot up into the sky.
"This is?"
The pupils of all the powerful gods present suddenly shrank at this moment, and they looked at the beam of light in disbelief.
"It's just a beam of light. It can't change the outcome."
When Yue Yaotian saw the beam of light appearing, he was stunned at first, and then said with disdain.
"Shut up!"
Zhuo Jincheng scolded harshly.
"Brother?"
Yue Yaotian looked puzzled. Was what he said wrong?
"A pure black light column, which represents the soul realm among the five upper realms."
Zhuo Jincheng had to explain, otherwise he was afraid that Yue Yaotian would bring trouble to the sect. None of the five upper domains were people that their Zixiao Sect could afford to offend.
