Chapter 720: Outer Sect Assessment (Please Subscribe)_1
The one speaking was Xu Sheng, who had hurried over, gasping for breath. His dark eyes were fixed on the Xuantian Sect Elder and the Outer Sect Disciples ahead!!
In a flash, everyone's attention, including Yin Luo's, was drawn to Xu Sheng!
Upon noticing his attire and the fluctuation of spiritual power, those who were watching started to mock and jeer...
"This guy is a Servant Disciple?? Hmph, his cultivation level is even lower than mine; he's clearly just fodder for others to step on!"
"Though I can't sense any spiritual power, the fellow does have a pretty face! But this Outer Sect assessment is all about strength!"
"Indeed! Daring to participate without a trace of spiritual power, he's surely seeking death, isn't he?"
Beautiful Eyes Yin Luo sized up Xu Sheng, a look of amazement crossing her face when she saw his handsome features, but upon realizing he was a waste with no spiritual power, she decisively turned her head and ignored him...
Xu Sheng once again respectfully addressed the Xuantian Sect Elder in front, "Elder, I would like to register for the Outer Sect assessment!"
On hearing this, the Xuantian Sect Elder narrowed his eyes, "Are you sure? I can't sense a trace of spiritual power from you."
Could it be that some treasure was hiding his spiritual power fluctuation?
Otherwise, anyone with a brain would know that participating in the Outer Sect assessment without spiritual power could very likely lead to death inside!
Xu Sheng nodded in response, "I'm certain!"
Although he could only unlock two of the seals within his body at the moment, he was confident that passing this Outer Sect assessment shouldn't be difficult!
The Xuantian Sect Elder pondered for a moment, then said calmly, "In that case! I'll make an exception and let you participate. If you die during the Outer Sect assessment, you can only blame your own bad luck!"
Xu Sheng feigned excitement, cupping his fist in thanks, "Thank you, Elder!"
Subsequently, the Xuantian Sect Elder infused his voice with spiritual power and announced loudly, "I declare, the Xuantian Sect Outer Sect assessment officially begins now!!"
As his words fell, the restrictions behind the Elder in the passage began to ripple, and just a few seconds later, they vanished!
Seeing the restrictions lifted, the cultivators participating in the Outer Sect assessment were thrilled, exploding with terrifying speed as they surged into the passage...
"Charge!! I've already participated four times! This time I must secure a spot as an Outer Sect Disciple!!"
"Dream on!! With your Qi Training Third Layer level, you think you qualify? This time, the spot is mine!"
"I'm going to become an Outer Sect Disciple!! Outer Sect Disciple!!"
Yin Luo, watching the chaotic scene unfold, crossed her arms leisurely and walked towards the increasingly vacant passage, snorting disdainfully, "Hmph! No matter how fast these losers rush, they're just stepping stones for me!"
She had reached the Qi-Condensation Seventh Level! Far from what these trash could compare to!
And the traps alone in the Outer Sect assessment were enough to eliminate most of them!
Xu Sheng, in no hurry to enter either, watched her with a hint of interest on his face. This woman was indeed intriguing...
Perhaps coming to this Cultivation World wasn't such a bad thing after all!
Seemingly feeling Xu Sheng's gaze, Yin Luo turned her head towards him, her Beautiful Eyes carrying a disdainful look before imbuing her legs with spiritual power and dashing into the passage ahead...
Xu Sheng wasn't annoyed by the contempt; after all, wasn't he a waste who lacked spiritual power before breaking the seals?
He too, promptly dashed into the passage...
...
Only after entering the passage did he realize that while many of the cultivators had already rushed ahead, quite a few were engaged in battle with each other...
A cultivator grasped his longsword tightly, chopping a man in front of him and sending him flying while shouting, "Damn it! Don't block my path to becoming an Outer Sect Disciple!"
The cultivator who was sent flying sneered, "Impossible!! Last time you dared to obstruct me, this time, I won't let you pass either!"
With that, they were tangled up in a fight...
However, it wasn't just those two; the surroundings were constantly filled with dangerously flickering lights of blades and sword shadows, creating a chaotic scene!
"Take my Lightning Five Continuous Whips!"
"Holy shit! That's some impressive whip technique, but are you just hitting yourself??"
"Hurry, hurry, hurry! If we don't move now, someone else will take the lead!"
"Damn you! I'm going to end you!!"
However, what was extremely strange was that none of the cultivators chose to make a move against Xu Sheng—it seemed as if all of them had accepted that he was someone without spiritual power, a piece of trash!
So they subconsciously thought that even if he passed the first trial, he couldn't possibly obtain a place as an Outer Sect Disciple!
"Although being ignored doesn't feel great, it can be pretty useful,"
With a wry shake of his head, Xu Sheng then slipped his hands into his pockets and walked forward with an unchanged expression...
Little did they know that all this was under the watchful eyes of the Xuantian Sect Elder and the disciples...
Nothing else, just too eye-catching!
Walking with his hands in his pockets amidst the sword shadows and blade lights, who wouldn't attract attention doing that? It was difficult not to be noticed!
One of the Xuantian Sect Outer Sect Disciples exclaimed, "Damn, this kid is really bold! He's not even drawing his sword! Hands in pockets, trying to look cool?"
"Why aren't the other cultivators attacking this guy? He clearly doesn't have a whisper of spiritual power! Why don't they just eliminate him quickly?"
"Look, look, this guy is about to get through the first trial! What is everyone else doing? This is making me anxious!"
The Xuantian Sect Elder, standing in the middle, however, had a knowing smile at the corner of his mouth, secretly thinking, "First, he uses a treasure to hide his spiritual power fluctuations, then deliberately attracts attention at a very conspicuous time, making everyone aware that he is a trash without spiritual power."
"In this way, no one will regard him as a competitor! This calculation, brilliant! Truly brilliant!"
But getting through the first trial was one thing; the other cultivators in the subsequent trials weren't going to be fooled by such a simple trick!
Kid, what are you going to do next?
...
As expected, when Qian Yu stepped into the second trial, he was immediately targeted by the cold gaze of countless cultivators!
When Xu Sheng's eyes saw the figure in front of him, they lit up with a keen light...
He subtly quickened his pace and walked toward the figure...
One of the cultivators at the Qi-Condensation Fourth Level, seeing that Xu Sheng was still obliviously continuing, said angrily, "How did this powerless kid reach the second trial? I can't stand it! He must be eliminated here."
"Hold on, maybe he is hiding his strength??"
"Hiding my ass! Look carefully, he was able to get into the second trial because of the Third Miss of the Yin Family, Yin Luo!"
Seeing Xu Sheng following behind Yin Luo, at first glance, it indeed looked like she was protecting him and advancing forward!
"I can't believe the Third Miss of the Yin Family would protect a man with no spirit force fluctuations!"
"This guy has no shame! Advancing through the levels by relying on a woman's power! I really want to kill him!"
"I can't swallow this anger!! Should we stop him?"
"Stop my ass, Yin Luo has reached the Qi-Condensation Seventh Level! A few of us misfits are simply not enough for her to beat down!"
Hearing these discussions around her, Yin Luo, who was walking ahead, furrowed her brows and quickly turned around...
When she saw that it was Xu Sheng behind her, and combined with what the cultivators said, she immediately realized...
With a cold expression, she said, "You dare take advantage of me, a trash without spiritual power?"
She had planned to seize the lead after those cultivators in front had exhausted their spiritual power, but here she was being taken advantage of unwittingly!
And by a piece of trash without spiritual power, at that!
Xu Sheng smiled faintly, "Miss Yin, I wouldn't dare. After all, with not a trace of spiritual power in me, I just wanted to experience more of the trials."
Yin Luo's gaze lingered on Xu Sheng for several seconds, seeing that he did not seem to be lying, her expression softened slightly...
Then, with a cool tone, she said, "At least you have some self-awareness. A person without spiritual power, even entering the Outer Sect, is just to be bullied by others!"
Having said that, she no longer lingered and charged forward at a quick pace...
Xu Sheng's dark eyes watched Yin Luo leave and then looked at the cultivators eyeing him like prey...
In his heart, he chuckled bitterly, "Now, to get through the Outer Sect evaluation, it seems impossible without revealing some strength..."
