Chapter 34: His Test Was Cancelled And He Was Promoted

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The assessment officer left and returned.?He was very fast.

“The elders all agreed that you passed the assessment ahead of time and you can move freely, but it is only limited to this mountain.”

“Your Gu worm has already been kept by the sect, and the results are recorded at this current state.?Is it okay with you?”

Fang Yuan nodded, “No problem, thank you for informing me, Senior.”

“You’re welcome.”

The examiner’s tone and attitude towards a talented disciple like Fang Yuan was much better.

Fang Yuan then left his seat.?He did not walk far before he saw a result board on the side of the road outside the assessment area.

His name was written at first place.

“Good man, I am going to be famous now.”

Fang Yuan laughed lightly.

Even though the nail that sticks out gets hammered down, in a place like the Gu Immortal Sect where the environment was good, being outstanding enough could bring huge benefits.

Sitting on a huge rock not far from the result board, Fang Yuan looked around the assessment area, and he could not see the end of it.

He could see some people with decent strength who had already tamed their Gu worms and were using the spirit essence in their acupoints to nurture them.

They could be said to have passed the first trial.?The only thing left to do was to fight for the ranking.

Most people were still racking their brains to tame the Gu worm.

This was also a normal situation.

Many disciples who had just entered the sect just wanted to join in the fun and practice their skills in the trial.

The sect did not set a threshold to exclude them.?Every year, they spent a large amount of resources on the Gu worms used in the trial.?One could see how much their financial resources were.

After watching for an hour, some people gradually began to leave the arena.

Fang Yuan originally thought that they were the ones who had raised the Gu worms to rank two.?However, when he took a closer look, he realized that they were the disciples who had accidentally raised the Gu worms to death and were forcefully kicked out of the arena.

There were quite a number of such people.

“It seems like what Senior said was true.”

Fang Yuan shook his head.

The quality of the outer sect competition was not high.?Even if there were talented disciples, they were nothing in front of the current him.

After all, he was someone who could spar with Wan Qian, one of the three experts of the younger generation in the inner sect.

This was something that ninety-nine percent of the outer sect disciples could not do.

After he had an idea, Fang Yuan no longer paid attention to the competition.?He found a quiet place and continued to meditate and cultivate.

It was not scary if his talent was not good.?What was scary was if he was not talented and still did not work hard.

Fang Yuan had been using this sentence to motivate himself.

A day passed in the blink of an eye.

The results of the first day were announced to the public.

Fang Yuan was still firmly in first place in the first round, and there was no suspense.

Second and third place had successfully raised the Acid Ant Gu to rank two, but their efficiency was too different from Fang Yuan’s.?They had broken through almost right before the trial ended.

It was said that third place had suffered a great loss because of this, and they did not know if they could still participate in the second theory trial.

Fang Yuan once again stepped into the assessment area.?This time, the facilities in the venue were reduced by a lot, by more than half.

It seemed that only the first round of the Gu raising trial had eliminated half of the candidates.

When everyone took their seats, the long-bearded old man from yesterday appeared again.?Without any hesitation, he directly announced the contents of today’s trial.

“There are a total of ten Gu worms in the boxes in front of each of you.”

“They can be paired up and refine each other to raise their quality.”

“What you need to do is to recognize the relationship between them and start refining them.”

“The required materials can be mentioned to the examiners next to you.?To a certain extent, the sect can support you.”

“If you fail more than three times, you will be eliminated immediately!”

“Now, the competition begins!”

The second round of training was much harder.

It tested a Gu master’s knowledge and Gu refinement ability.

Fang Yuan had already gone to the scripture depository in the past to find the reason why he could not break through during his ten years of body refinement.

Thus, after reading a lot of books, it was very easy for him to recognize a few Gu worms.

Moreover, he still had the system.?Even if he could not recognize them, the system’s scanning program could help him.

As a result, while others were still trying to identify the characteristics of the Gu worms and think about the relationships between them, Fang Yuan had already started to refine them.

Moreover, he was refining five pairs of them!

Under the control of Fang Yuan’s ten fingers, wisps of spiritual essence connected the blood vessels between them like a needle thread.

The speed was so fast that it was hard to take in.

When the examiners not far away saw it, they almost thought that the disciple had been driven mad by such a difficult test and was about to step forward to stop him.

But when they looked carefully, they found that it was Fang Yuan, who had completed the test in fifteen minutes yesterday, and they stopped in place again.

It was him.

Then it was fine.

It was very common for disciples who were recognized by even the elders to do something shocking.

Thus, after another quarter of an hour, Fang Yuan raised his hand again.

The examiner walked over to check.?This time, he did not ask the elders to check, and he let Fang Yuan move freely.

Next, he brought five evolved Gu worms to the elders.

“This kid took another quarter of an hour?”

The elders were not calm anymore.

First Elder only gave them a glance before saying: “No problem.”

“It seems that our Gu Immortal Sect has a genius disciple.”

The middle-aged man on the main seat turned his head and looked at the old man on the right. “Second Elder, have you checked his background?”

“I have.”

Second Elder had a full beard and looked fierce, but he was still respectful towards the man on the main seat.

“Reporting to Sect Master, this kid has been in the sect for ten years and four months, his hometown is in Yunding City, thirty miles away from us. The clan master is Fang Wenheng, his background is clean, we can confirm that he is not a spy sent by other sects.”

It turned out that the man sitting on the main seat was the supreme expert of Gu Immortal Sect, Gu Zhenren.

“He has been in the sect for ten years?”

Gu Zhenren heard this and could not help but raise his eyebrows. “With such talent, why did he stay in the outer sect for so long, Eighth Elder?”

The elder who was called quickly stood up and replied.

“Sect Master.”

“The outer sect is under your direct control, what’s going on?”

“This...”

The eighth elder broke out in cold sweat.?“I pay attention to the outer sect disciples who improve fast every month.?It’s just that...”

“Just what?”

“There’s no one named Fang Yuan on the list submitted by the sect...”

Gu Zhenren snorted coldly, his expression sullen and his tone serious.?“Such a talent has been buried in the sect for many years.?Don’t you know that if you don’t control your subordinates strictly, you’ll be punished for dereliction of duty.?Do you have anything to say?”

“This subordinate is wronged!”?Eighth elder laughed bitterly, “If this Fang Yuan really wanted to show his face in front of others, he would have participated in the outer sect competition a few years ago, why would he wait until today?”

“You mean, this kid is intentionally concealing his strength?”

Second Elder did not understand, and he immediately asked, “Why is that so??The inner sect has abundant resources, why would a Gu master be willing to stay in the outer sect?”

“Who knows, maybe Fang Yuan has an unruly nature and does not care about the inner sect’s status and resources.”

“Then why did he participate in the outer sect competition this year?”

“I know a little about this.”

Another elder interrupted. “I heard that inner sect Wan Qian has been getting close to an outer sect male cultivator recently, if the information isn’t wrong, it would be this Fang Yuan.”

“That’s right!”?Eighth Elder felt like he had found a life-saving straw and quickly said, “Maybe this Fang Yuan fell in love with Wan Qian at first sight and was inspired by her, so he wanted to prove it to everyone.”

This reason seemed to make sense.

Gu Zhenren was silent for a while before slowly nodding. “It is indeed possible.?Alright, Second Elder will go and check it again.?If it is confirmed to be true...?Fourth Elder.”

“I am here.”

“The inner sect is under your jurisdiction.?In the future, send some missions for the two of them to do together.?As long as they are close to each other, we elders can help them realise their good wishes.”

“Yes, Sir!”

“Also, cancel his test tomorrow and directly promote him to the inner sect.”
