Chapter 1338: Chapter 1338: Performance
The mother and daughter watched the battle below. "Mom, Xuantian Sect has more Magic Cultivators."
"Yes, it looks quite colorful."
"Mom, can you see the speed at which their spells are being cast?"
Su Yuanyuan nodded. She couldn’t see clearly when it came to Liu Xiaozhu and Sun Qizheng—both late-stage Golden Core—but for the others, she had no problem.
At this moment, a cultivator approached. "Tan Shaoting, you’re up."
There were two Sword Cultivators intercepting them, and the Foundation Establishment cultivators from Xuantian Sect were having trouble holding on.
Without saying a word, Tan Shaoting immediately soared off the flying boat with his sword.
The mother and daughter absolutely trusted their husband and father.
Tan Shaoting didn’t disappoint his wife and daughter’s trust.
After dealing with one Sword Cultivator, he quickly aimed at the second. He knew why the sect called him down.
The cultivators on the deck were all watching the battle below.
Everyone watched Tan Shaoting’s performance. This newly recruited disciple was really something in terms of combat prowess.
His performance was noticed by the opponent as well. A Golden Core cultivator suddenly launched a Golden Sword Technique at Tan Shaoting.
It’s easy for a Golden Core Cultivator to deal with a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, but he was up against Tan Shaoting.
His Divine Sense was now late-stage Golden Core, so when the spell was cast, Tan Shaoting instinctively dodged.
No one thought he could dodge it, let alone immediately counter with a Golden Sword Technique.
Everyone was quite surprised. Who would’ve thought a late-stage Foundation Establishment Sword Cultivator could cast spells as swiftly as this? Among Foundation Establishment Cultivators, Tan Shaoting’s spell speed was no slower than that of the Golden Core cultivator.
The Golden Core cultivator couldn’t believe Tan Shaoting dodged his attack and counterattacked.
After Tan Shaoting cast his spell, his sword followed.
It forced the Golden Core cultivator to dodge in a very embarrassing manner, facing off against Xuantian Sect’s Golden Core Cultivator in front and Tan Shaoting’s attack from behind.
Moreover, this late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator’s swordsmanship was really formidable. If his vestment robe weren’t high-level, he’d have been injured just now.
Tan Shaoting’s swordsmanship was growing faster and it seemed he was about to break through the Golden Core cultivator’s defenses.
Now, he’s besieged from all sides and couldn’t hold on.
Of course, Xuantian Sect’s cultivators noticed this and quickened their attacks as well.
Tan Shaoting knew it was his time to shine, so he didn’t hold back at all in swordsmanship.
While piercing through the opponent’s Dantian, that Golden Core cultivator was also incinerated by Xuantian Sect’s cultivator.
This made Tan Shaoting’s performance even more satisfying.
In reality, the battle was very fast-paced. These ten people were eliminated quickly.
Tan Shaoting stashed away two Storage Bags. Back on the deck, all cultivators returned.
Tan Shaoting returned to his wife and child.
The journey ahead became much calmer. Ten days later, the flying boat landed directly on Xuantian Sect’s square.
There were already some children here, brought back from recruiting elsewhere.
The family stood conspicuously at the back of the ranks.
This time, they were the only family of three Loose Cultivators recruited. A steward came to lead them to the square, implying there might be another Spirit Testing soon.
Sun Qizheng and Liu Xiaozhu went to hand in the tasks. Upon returning, they considered this recruitment event successfully completed. Their mission rewards would be decided based on the quantity and Spirit Roots of the disciples they brought back.
They were also quite satisfied, having recruited a single water Spirit Root disciple, despite three Loose Cultivators. Their combat prowess was impressive.
It was clear to anyone that this pair of Foundation Establishment cultivators came to Xuantian Sect for their daughter.
They also saw others’ two sons, who were indeed exceptional.
Su Yuanyuan looked at Xuantian Sect, which felt like a giant entity. They had the least number of disciples from Future City this time.
Seeing the densely packed crowd, as adults, they could still clearly see the large number of children.
All the teams seemed to have arrived. A middle-aged scholarly-looking man floated above, observing below.
"All disciples heed the command, the squad called will be brought over by the steward on duty."
Su Yuanyuan realized it was Spirit Testing now. Their family had already been tested in Future City, but the sect required another test.
The first team had thirty people, likely recruited from the Mortal World.
This group of kids, the oldest being no more than twelve, indicated lowered recruitment conditions in the Mortal World.
The Spirit Roots in these thirty were mostly three or four, and there were seven or eight with five Spirit Roots.
They were dazed but filled with awe and curiosity here.
Those with three Spirit Roots stood on one side, while those with four or five stood on the other side.
The process was fast, and in two hours, it was their turn, sixteen of them.
Xiao Ho’s single Spirit Root was particularly eye-catching. She stood alone since, so far, there was no single water Spirit Root.
When it came to Qi Wen, she was a bit worried, afraid her disguise might be exposed.
Her concerns were unfounded. The Spirit Testing results showed no issues. She still had Water and Wood Dual Spirit Roots, both levels above seventy percent, comparable to Xiao Ho.
Xiao Ho’s Spirit Root was single water, but its value was only fifty percent.
Qi Wen regretted being careless; she should have adjusted her Spirit Root Value to five or six-tenths to avoid standing out.
After testing, she first went to pick up her two brothers, drawing more attention.
The second was Su Yuanyuan, her Spirit Root also Water and Wood Dual Spirit Roots, value was seventy percent, slightly lower than Qi Wen’s, but she was Foundation Establishment.
The mother and daughter stood together, each holding a child.
Tan Shaoting was also flawless, having Gold and Fire Dual Spirit Roots, with an eighty percent value. The family stood together again.
The remaining five teams saw another five Dual Spirit Roots appear, all quite young.
An hour later, all disciples were tested again and categorized by Spirit Root. Four with single Spirit Roots and eight with Dual Spirit Roots entered the Inner Sect, while the rest with three or four Spirit Roots were Outer Disciples, who would become Inner Sect Disciples after Foundation Establishment.
Five Spirit Roots were servant disciples, and this group was the largest.
Su Yuanyuan understood the sect’s reasoning for this.
If the sect only had disciples with excellent Spirit Roots, they’d inevitably neglect cultivation due to missions and other tasks.
Therefore, large numbers of servant disciples were recruited to serve those with outstanding Spirit Roots.
Tan Shaoting and his family of three were quite special. They weren’t placed with new disciples but directly allocated to Jingyang Peak, each given a courtyard without separation.
