Soon, the first team that arrived at the sect's flying boat completed the test, and only two people had yellow lights. Among the forty-two people, only two passed the test and were qualified to enter the next level.
After the first twenty or so teams were tested, only fifty-three out of nearly a thousand people passed. This shows that the elimination rate of the first test is indeed very high.
Finally, it was Yuanxiao's team's turn.
Their team, led by Zhang Dahai, was the last to arrive at the square, so their test time was also the last.
Wang Yin was actually ranked first in the team.
Yuan Xiao took a closer look and saw that the wound on this guy's face had almost healed. His cousin Wang Jin, as an inner sect disciple, naturally had no shortage of healing elixirs on him. He must have applied moistening grass ointment to him, so the wound healed quickly.
Wang Yin seemed very confident at this moment. He strode forward and grabbed a Lingxi hammer in one hand. The Lingxi hammer soon lit up yellow.
Wang Yin smiled smugly. It was indeed so. His cousin Wang Jin had gone to his house earlier and used spiritual energy to help him comb his meridians. It might have had some effect, and coupled with Wang Yin's own good aptitude, he had now met the requirements and at least had obtained the status of an outer disciple.
When Wang Yin walked off the stage, he was extremely proud and raised his eyebrows provocatively at Yuanxiao.
"Wang Yin, yellow, reached the standard, next!"
The first candidate in Ping'an County was the one who met the standards, which made the other children excited. Could it be that he was blessed by God?
But the next few people showed black again, which did not meet the standard.
It wasn't until Ma Tao stepped forward that the Lingxi Hammer lit up yellow again. Ma Tao was overjoyed, not expecting that he could pass. As he returned, he didn't forget to cheer Yuan Xiao and the other two on.
Zhang Dahai and Zhou Qingqing stood by and felt a little relieved looking at the two of them. After all, this trip to Ping'an County was not in vain.
Zhang Dahai remembered that Ma Tao was also a child from a village near Shenxian Mountain, not far from Xunxian Town where Yuanxiao and the other two were.
But after that, no one met the standard until the little fat man was about to appear.
Next it was the fat boy’s turn. He had already prayed to all the gods and Buddhas in his heart, thinking that he must let me pass, he didn’t want to go back to inherit the family property, he just wanted to live forever.
Then, just as the little fat man placed his hands on the Lingxi Hammer for a moment, it lit up yellow.
The little fat boy's lips trembled with excitement. "Gods and Buddhas all over the sky, thank you so much! I'll burn incense when I get back!"
Zhang Dahai and Zhou Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the fat boy had passed the test.
Then it was Sakura's turn. It seemed like a miracle happened. As soon as Sakura put her hands on it, it immediately lit up yellow. Naturally, Sakura was very happy.
Two people met the requirements in a row, and they came here together, both from Xunxian Town.
Together with Ma Tao before, these three people who met the requirements all came from the same small place, two in Xunxian Town, and one near Xunxian Town, and they were very close to each other.
If we want to find a common point, it is that they are all at the foot of Shenxian Mountain.
As the receptionist and registrar of this group of children, Zhang Dahai immediately fell into deep thought. Is there any unknown secret here?
The last person to appear was Yuanxiao. Seeing that Xiaoying and the little fat boy had successfully met the standards, Yuanxiao finally felt relieved and stepped forward.
Yuanxiao wasn't worried at all. He trusted Old Man Zhaiyue's judgment. He had already been cleansed by the I Ching of the Apocalypse Pearl and his physique was now pure and flawless. If he couldn't pass this test, no one else would be able to do so!
At this moment, Zhang Dahai was watching the test results very nervously.
First, they were worried about whether Yuanxiao could pass the test; second, if Yuanxiao also passed the test, then these four people who met the standards would all come from the foot of Shenxian Mountain.
Why is this happening? What unknown magic does the Fairy Mountain possess?
Are there really gods in the Fairy Mountain?
After Yuanxiao held the Lingxi Hammer with both hands, he only felt a weak airflow, which should be the spiritual flow that the middle-aged Taoist said. It flowed from his right hand to the meridians of his whole body in an instant without any pain or discomfort, and then flowed out from his left hand in the blink of an eye.
The flow of spiritual energy was originally very weak, and most of it was absorbed by himself. By the time it flowed out, there was very little left. However, the whole process was very fast, and the Lingxi Hammer was lit up in an instant.
"Wow, it's orange!"
“It’s actually orange!”
…
There was a sudden commotion in the square, and even the elders who had been slouching in the main seats straightened up and became alert.
After all, it has been hundreds of years since the last time the Lingxi Hammer lit up orange.
Several elders looked at Yuanxiao seriously, then exchanged glances with each other, and finally nodded, but said nothing.
The middle-aged Taoist patted Yuanxiao on the shoulder and praised him: "Good boy, really good!"
The little fat boy, Xiaoying and Ma Tao all looked happy.
Only Wang Yin was dumbfounded, thinking to himself, this kid is so fierce! No wonder I couldn't beat him in the fight last night!
Zhang Dahai was also surprised. Not only was he surprised that the Lantern Festival test could light up orange, but he was even more shocked that his previous guess was correct.
The fact that these four people, all from the same small town, were able to pass the test and meet the standards must be due to some unknown connection to Shenxian Mountain. I'll definitely visit Shenxian Mountain and take a walk around it someday if I get the chance; it might even be a chance for me!
"Now, please ask the fifty-eight people who have passed the first test to come to the second table. The first test just now was to test the speed of spiritual energy circulating in the meridians in your body." The middle-aged Taoist began to introduce.
"Now, the second test is a continuation of the first. It tests the amount of spiritual energy you have just absorbed."
"During the first test just now, the spiritual energy circulated through your body, and some of it has been absorbed by your body."
"As you are experiencing Reiki for the first time, how much Reiki your body can absorb represents your body's acceptance of Reiki and your body's compatibility with Reiki. This is crucial for your future cultivation."
"First, we need to absorb as much spiritual energy as possible, and second, we need to store as much spiritual energy as possible in our bodies. This way, we can always supply ourselves with spiritual energy when we need it."
"The object on the second table is Yunhai Sect's precious magical weapon, the Spirit Measuring Pillar, which is specifically used to measure the amount of spiritual energy in a person."
"We consider the amount of spiritual energy released during the first test as a full 100%. We then use the Spirit Measuring Pillar to measure the percentage of spiritual energy remaining in your body. This tells us how much of the spiritual energy your body can absorb. This can reflect the amount and speed of spiritual energy a person absorbs, and gauge their ability to absorb spiritual energy."
"There are ten stars on the spirit measuring column. If one star lights up, it means you can absorb 10% of the spirit energy. If ten stars light up, it means you can absorb 100% of the spirit energy."
"Of course, 100% absorption is only theoretical. In reality, it's impossible to achieve this because spiritual energy always consumes energy during its circulation. In the final stage of the first test just now, in addition to some spiritual energy flowing out of my left hand, as the spiritual energy circulated throughout my body, a small amount of it also evaporated into the air through our body surface."
"So, if you can absorb 50% in practice, that is, if five stars light up, you will be very outstanding. If the spirit pillar lights up five stars or above, you can be directly accepted as an inner disciple!"
"There's a jade plate on the base of the spirit-testing pillar. All you have to do is press your palms on it, and the number of stars will appear on the pillar. Let's begin now!"
Everyone at the scene stretched their necks, afraid of missing this wonderful scene!
