Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough - Chapter 5: Finding a Future Disciple
" Eh? That is!"
Just as Xuan Hao was about to give up on the youths testing down below, he suddenly sensed something.
It was a young girl with beautiful black hair and brown eyes.
What made Xuan Hao unable to move his gaze away from the young girl was the innate talent value displayed above her head!
"Natural talent… 37!"
At first glance, Xuan Hao thought he was mistaken. Maybe he had just mixed two different people together allowing the talent values to overlap.
But no, even after he continued to stare at the number above the young girl's head, it still stayed there. Floating directly above her.
A natural talent of 37!
This aptitude for cultivating, was enormous!
Even Ling Song, who was the number one genius of the Flying Sword Sect only had a natural talent of 15.
"How strange, with a natural talent of 37, she's still only at the fourth level of Qi Condensation? Ling Song had already advanced to the Foundation Establishment Realm when he was around her age, how come?"
Xuan Hao frowned slightly. He didn't understand how this could happen. A genius with a natural talent of 37 at the age of fifteen or sixteen, how could she still be stuck at the 4th stage of the Qi Condensation?
It had to be said that even the fellow with a talent value of 9 was already at the 8th stage of the Qi Condensation Realm.
"Wait a moment…"
Suddenly, Xuan Hao noticed something that he didn't see before. There was a line of words behind the young girl's natural talent value.
[Physique: (dormant) Bright Sun Divine Physique, Awakening method: Infernal Heart Grass (Spirit Grade)]
There existed all sorts of physiques in this world. Those who possessed these blessed and divine physiques were all existences favoured by the heavens themselves. Cultivating the earlier stages would be as easy as eating and sleeping.
Honestly, Xuan Hao felt a little envious when he thought about a peculiar physique, he had read about in the sect's library.
The physique was called the Immortal Dream Physique and the person who had it only needed to sleep to reach the peak…
The one who had it was called the Immortal Dreamer and he reached the peak of Emperor Realm at the age of 150 by sleeping… After that he disappeared from the Ewaria continent, most likely to surpass the Emperor Realm…
Back to the unique thing called physiques or divine bodies.
Some physiques were naturally activated from the moment a person was born, while others were in a dormant state. They needed some special items or method to awaken them. For example, the owner of the Bright Sun Divine Physique needed to consume the Infernal Heart Grass to activate the Bright Sun Divine Physique.
However, the Infernal Heart Grass was not easy to find. Even a Nascent Soul expert like Xuan Hao would have a hard time getting his hands-on Infernal Heart Grass.
Infernal Heart Grass was not too high-grade herb and was only considered a Spirit Grade herb. The ones to use spirit herbs were people at the Core Formation Realm. Not something a Nascent Soul expert should have a problem acquiring.
Sadly, for Xuan Hao, it was extremely rare and hard to find due to the unique environment required for it to grow.
"No mater what, I want this person!"
It was not easy to finally find someone with a natural talent above 10, so how could Xuan Hao let her go over something like finding a rare herb?
Originally, Xuan Hao wanted to directly rush down and take her in as his disciple, but after thinking about the arrogant and troublesome character with a talent of 9, Xuan Hao decided not to. He could do it after all the tests were over. He could use this period of time to properly observe her conduct and other aspects.
The last thing Xuan Hao wanted was a troublesome and arrogant disciple.
On the other hand, this young girl who had been targeted by Xuan Hao a great Core Elder of the Flying Sword Sect, was completely unaware at this moment.
At this moment, she was nervously holding her small hands together while looking at the strange, yet familiar object in front of her.
It was her turn to take the first test at last.
Although she had already been tested in the clan several times before coming and already knew that she was qualified to pass the first tests, she was still nervous when faced with the real thing.
"Yi'er, don't be so nervous. You will pass the first tests. You've already been tested before coming here." The one who spoke in calming voice as he gently patted Qing Yi's shoulder was the First Elder of the Qing Family.
It was Qing Yi's turn. Before her, the Qing family's number one genius, Qing Chenyi, had already gone up and tested. Bone age 17, 6th stage Qi Condensation.
At this moment, Qing Chenyi was no longer as confident as he was before.
With the test proceeding, he discovered that there were more than a few people who were at or above the fifth and sixth stage of Qi Condensation! He even spotted quite a few people at the seventh stage of Qi condensation!
This immediately cause him to feel quite a big of pressure for the upcoming second test.
Originally, he had been extremely confident that he would be able to enter the Flying Sword Sect and maybe even get into the top 10 and enter as an Inner Court Disciple. However, at this moment, his confidence from early had completely vanished.
He discovered that many of the people present were not inferior to him in terms of talent and strength. Quite the opposite, some were far more superior than him.
He truly felt like a frog at the bottom of a well, finally experiencing the real world.
Even though he was the number one genius in bright Sun City, so what? Only a small unknown place in the big Heavenly Sky Kingdom!
Qing Yi was completely unaware that the number one genius from her family clan had a drastic change in emotions.
At this moment, she arrived in front of the talent tester and nervously raised her hand before placing it on top of it.
While Qing Yi was testing, Xuan Hao was also observing her with his divine sense. Looking at her appearance, Xuan Hao smiled a bit.
'This girl seems to be a little nervous'
"Qing Yi, bone age 15, the fourth stage of Qi Condensation, qualified!"
Hearing this, not even the slightest bit of joy made its way unto Qing Yi's face.
Even though she had passed the first test, she discovered how strong the people around her were.
Those with a bone age of not more than eighteen and cultivation of at least forth stage of Qi Condensation were so common. No, it would be easier to say that only the ones considered among the children were below the fourth stage of Qi Condensation.
How hard would the upcoming second round of examination be?
