Chapter 155: Chapter 155 Oh No, I Became a Genius_l

Translator: 549690339

Chen Mobai was unaware of the significance of his tri-attribute True Spirit Root.

But after all the cultivators in Southstream Market had gone through the Spirit Root Testing Platform, he finally understood.

Surprisingly, he had the best outcome.

Not a single person in the entire Southstream Market possessed a Spiritual Root with more than three attributes.

Even among those with a tri-attributed Spiritual Root, barely six individuals could be counted.

Excluding him and the young lad from Liu family, among the remaining three Loose Cultivators who were tested, one had a bone age of over thirty with only Qi Cultivation of the third level, considered by Yuan Chiye to possess a tri-attributed Spiritual Root close to being a False Spirit Root.

Normally, possessing a tri-attributed Spiritual Root should allow direct entry into the sect, but after Yuan Chiye’s assessment, the Loose Cultivator was asked to participate in the second round of talisman examination. Only if the results met the standard would he be permitted to join the sect.

Although a little annoyed, the Loose Cultivator could only reluctantly accept the decision from the True Disciple of the Divine Wood Sect.

Among the remaining two, one was merely a six-year-old boy, the son of a pair of Loose Cultivators, with cultivation only as high as the first level of Qi Cultivation.

However, Yuan Chiye judged his Spiritual Root to be quite good, so he made a reservation for him outright.

He gave the boy a token from the Divine Wood Sect, so that he could present it for identity verification when the Spirit Messenger arrived again in ten years. After that, he would be able to directly enter the sect.

Chen Mobai wondered why they didn’t directly recruit the boy into the Divine Wood Sect. Weren’t they afraid he’d be taken by another sect the next time around?

Not wanting to directly ask Yuan Chiye, he instead asked an old acquaintance standing nearby—the shopkeeper of Shenmu Spirit Drug Store.

“In Yun Country, only Five Elements Sect dares to snatch candidates from us, Divine Wood Sect. However, our relationship has been mellow for the past two decades. Just for a tri-attributed Spirit Root disciple, they wouldn’t stoop so low as to perform such contemptible actions.”

“Apart from that, even if he is taken away, it merely represents that the boy does not have a fate with our sect.”

“It’s only a measly tri-attributed Spirit Root; if it’s taken away, so be it.”

This speech, revealing the breadth of mind befitting the Divine Wood Sect—a major sect in the Eastern Wilderness—left Chen Mobai admiring and rethinking his decision to join this sect.

“However, I didn’t expect that this year we could find three suitable talents in our Southstream Market. Disciple Chen, if you manage to establish your foundation successfully within our sect in the future, don’t forget about me— your old friend.”

The shopkeeper of the Shenmu Spirit Drug Store was named Yu Tian. He was also someone who entered the sect as a Loose Cultivator, his cultivation level was just barely at the eighth level of Qi Cultivation. There was basically no hope for him to receive a Foundation Building Pill.

But he had been diligently contributing to the sect for his whole life in order to fight for a chance to establish foundation, even without a Foundation Building Pill.

That’s why Yu Tian had always been looking for an opportunity to return to Giant Tree Ridge. Because the Spirit Vein there was prosperous, that was undoubtedly an excellent place to self-cultivate foundation establishment.

However, due to his lack of connections in the sect, he’d been having problems getting approved for his transfer back.

But seeing that Chen Mobai had the best tri-attributed Spiritual Root, and having the potential to shine in the sect, he could possibly become a true disciple in the next round, Yu Tian sparked a bit of hope and immediately tried to make friends.

“Not at all, I’ve just entered the sect. I haven’t even become a True Disciple yet, let alone establishing my foundation. The words of Elder Brother Yu have overstepped.”

Back in the Tianhe Realm, Chen Mobai always strove to maintain a low profile.

Originally, he thought with his talent, which was close to a False Spirit Root, he could moderately exert himself during the talisman examination and achieve a medium-grade result to get into the Divine Wood Sect. He could avoid drawing attention to himself while having a chance to learn and communicate in this major sect of the Eastern Wilderness. It would be a win-win situation.

Who would have thought that the Spirit Root testing artifact in the Tianhe Realm was so crude that with his age and cultivation level, he would be misinterpreted by Yuan Chiye as a genius with a True Spirit Root.

As a result, his low-profile strategy was off to a wrong start.

“Elder Brother Chen, I was wrong before. I hope you’ll look out for me in the sect in the future.”

At this time, the last of the Loose Cultivators with a tri-attribute Spiritual Root from the Southstream Market came over.

It was Zhuo Ming.

Her beautiful and captivating face carried a touch of unease, her eyes filled with both excitement and trepidation.

Excitement, because she had a tri-attributed Spiritual Root, and she was only twenty-four years old.

Not to mention, an impressive cultivation level of Qi Cultivation of the fifth level, reaching the minimum standard for direct admission into the sect.

After her Spiritual Root result came back and her bone age was verified by Ding Ying, Yuan Chiye directly dismissed her from the talisman examination the following day, allowing her to be directly enshrined in the sect records.

Although Zhuo Ming was consumed by excitement in that instant, upon seeing Chen Mobai, who was chatting and laughing with Yu Tian, she remembered her previous refusal of him, and immediately felt as though she’d been doused with a bucket of cold water.

Having dwelt among Loose Cultivators for so many years, she naturally understood social norms.

This Chen Mobai was clearly the most talented individual in the Spirit Root evaluation of Southstream Market this time, and had already caught the eye of the two True Disciples of the Divine Wood Sect.

Moreover, he was already in the later stages of Qi Cultivation. Once he joined the sect and received the resources of Divine Wood Sect, he could very possibly become one of the twenty-four True Disciples in the next round.

Given his age and aptitude, there’s a possibility he could receive a Foundation Building Pill in the future.

And if he could get a Foundation Building Pill, then there would be a chance for Foundation Establishment.

Foundation Establishment—is the ultimate goal of all Loose Cultivators.

Therefore, Zhuo Ming was extremely anxious, even if she too had been accepted into the Divine Wood Sect.

She was well aware that Chen Mobai, possessing such talent, had a high probability of becoming a True Disciple. But her, she would probably end up like Yu Tian, spending her whole life maybe only managing to handle the sect’s market shop.

Having offended a potential True Disciple even before entering the Divine Wood Sect, Zhuo Ming felt her future prospects had already turned bleak just by thinking about it.

“Not at all, Miss Zhuo…Elder Sister…Junior Sister, there’s no conflict between us. Since we all come from Yun Country’s Nanxi, once we join the sect, we certainly must support each other.”

Chen Mobai had initially thought that Zhuo Ming was younger than him, but when Ding Ying measured her bone age, she turned out to be twenty-four years old.

By age, he should be calling her elder sister.

However, in the Tianhe Realm, respect is given to the level of cultivation, and so, Zhuo Ming can only be his older junior sister.

He had these changes in his address turning on the tip of his tongue for a while, before he got it right.

However, his grown-up words led the nearby listeners to misunderstand.

Just as Chen Mobai was thinking of inviting Zhuo Ming for a meal later to inquire about Lu Shu, another person approached him.

The young man from Liu family, Liu Wenbo, came over under the leadership of his elders, kindly greeted Chen Mobai, and respectfully called out “Elder Brother.”

It was as if Zhuo Ming had set the example. The tri-attributed Spirit Root boy named Shen Wei also came over, led by his parents, to mix and familiarize himself.

Even some Loose Cultivators who had clearly failed the talisman examination also came over to pay their respects to Chen Mobai.

Hence, Chen Mobai, who had not even been to the Giant Tree Ridge yet, suddenly became the leader of this batch of Divine Wood Sect disciples from Yun Country’s Nanxi.

His plans for maintaining a low-profile instantly failed.

Chen Mobai even noticed the deep and thoughtful expressions in the eyes of Yuan Chiye and Ding Ying—two True Disciples of the Divine Wood Sect—letting out a silent cry of disaster in his mind.

He thought they were dissatisfied with his behavior of forming cliques as soon as he entered the sect.

Darn, how did I end up becoming a genius!
