Spiritual Force Test

In the blink of an eye, four years had passed.

The thin and frail baby girl from before had also grown into a delicate and charming little girl.

Zhao Shuning was swinging her feet as she looked at the shabby door of her house. Before long, a few people arrived with gifts in their hands.

"Big brother, do you know these people?"

Zhao Huai slowly pushed the swing and carefully watched his sister on it. He glanced at her and said, "I don't know her. She's probably Apothecary, around Level 1."

Zhao Shuning nodded and continued swinging.

In these four years, Zhao Shuning also had a general idea of the current situation of Great Land of Dongze.

Currently, she was only a little girl in the Zhao Family Village, without money and without power. If she wanted to take revenge and return to the Great Land of Dongze, she would have to borrow the strength of the forces by her side, and climb up step by step.

Every five years, Qinghui Town would require one Spiritual Energy test.

The Spiritual Energy was the Force Value, the foundation of all Apothecary's cultivation.

The purpose of the Spiritual Energy test was to pick out talented children and train them more. In the future, they would become the town's guardian.

"Big brother, they came this time for father to host the competition for the Spiritual Energy, right?"

Zhao Huai nodded.

The reason why many came to Zhao Family was so that Zhao Zheng could agree to host the Spiritual Energy examination, and say that Zhao Zheng was at least second stage Apothecary.

However, to the current Zhao Zheng, this was no different than a humiliation.

Zhao Shuning bit the cucumber in her hand.

A crisp sound rang out.

"Brother, why aren't you participating in the Spiritual Energy test?"

Upon hearing Zhao Shuning's question, Zhao Huai's swinging hand froze. After a moment, he came back to his senses and said, "Ning, it's not like you don't know that I'm very weak. I'll never be Apothecary in this life."

Zhao Shuning responded with an "En", but she couldn't tell how she was feeling. However, she had other intentions in her mind.

Who is she? In her previous life, she was the only Empress of the Great Land of Dongze and her status was only beneath that elusive emperor's master. With just a glance, she could tell if that person was suitable to become Apothecary or not.

In the eyes of the crowd, Zhao Huai was just a half scholar who could die at any time. His body was so weak that it couldn't even compare to a woman's.

However, only Zhao Shuning knew that Zhao Huai was not ordinary. She had seen with her own eyes that Zhao Huai was raising a Flying Serpent in a hidden cave at the Great Zhoushan Peak.

Flying Serpent, that was an Ancient Demonic Beast. To be able to be ranked in the top thirty of Demonic Beast, only Apothecary was qualified to be ranked above them.

He just did not know why he hid his real Spiritual Energy and pretended to be a piece of trash.

However, Zhao Shuning did not intend to expose him either.

In her second life, she understood many things.

Why would Ye Ling die? It was death from arrogance, from ignorance, and from lack of caution towards those around him.

In this life, she would never make this kind of mistake again.

"Ning, are you done playing? "If you're ready, big brother will carry you into the house."

"Mm. Alright."

Zhao Shuning stretched out a pair of small hands, turned her face into a smile, and looked innocent.

Zhao Huai smiled and hugged her gently, saying gently, "My family's Ning has gained a lot of weight."

Not long after, laughter could be heard from inside the house.

Zhao Huai was very good to Zhao Shuning. How good was he? If one day they were both in danger, Zhao Huai would give up his life to ensure his sister's safety.

As the elder brother, he was truly very dutiful.

However, Zhao Shuning couldn't figure it out. Since Zhao Huai was so powerful and cared about his family, how could he watch his father be humiliated by those people?

Obviously, as long as Zhao Huai participated in the Spiritual Energy test, he would definitely become the shining star in Qinghui Town, even more so than Zhao Zheng back then.

As for Zhao Zheng and Lin Min'er, they would definitely be respected so that they wouldn't be in such dire straits.

However, Zhao Huai didn't.

Why? Zhao Shuning couldn't wrap her head around it.

In the evening, Zhao Zheng came back with a red invitation card in his hand.

"Brother Zheng, you?"

"I accepted the post for the Spiritual Energy test."

Zhao Zheng had a smile on his face, but the three people in the room all knew that his smile was very forced. Zhao Zheng was a proud man.

One had to know, the Spiritual Energy examination, would be the grandest event in the Qinghui Town. At that time, all the villagers in the town would definitely come to spectate.

Zhao Huai looked worried, "Father, you have to be careful this time."

"Huai, take good care of your sister at home, don't worry about me."

Zhao Shuning smiled and said, "Big brother, since father is so powerful, he will definitely be able to shine then!"

"Ning is right."

The atmosphere between a family was slightly subtle.

That night, after Lin Min'er coaxed Zhao Shuning to sleep, she tiptoed out of the room.

The moment Lin Min'er gently closed the door, Zhao Shuning's eyes suddenly opened.

In the blink of an eye, she had arrived at the lakeside.

Every time his father had something on his mind, he would go to the clear lake and take a seat. Sure enough, Zhao Zheng was staring at the center of the lake with a serious expression.
