However, the results of Tang Yi’s Spiritual Power test didn’t appear right away.
When the results came out, the statue’s mouth was supposed to spit out a series of wondrous, translucent wreaths of Energy shaped like flower petals.
One wreath represented one level of Spiritual Power Cultivation, two wreaths represented two levels, and so on. The statue would spit out a corresponding number of wreaths based on the tester’s level of Spiritual Power Cultivation.
But during Tang Yi’s test, the giant, bizarre statue’s mouth hadn’t spit out a single wreath. It was like it was constipated.
HUMMMMM.
Not only that, but the crowd saw that when the Brahma Sound rang out again, the white light scattered. A few seconds later, the Brahma Sound stopped, and the white light reappeared, once again enveloping Tang Yi.
This repeated back and forth several times.
When the Brahma Sound rang, the white light would vanish. When the Brahma Sound stopped, the white light would appear. It repeated in a seemingly endless cycle.
"Is... is this the Spiritual Power test? Why do I feel like something’s wrong?"
Mu Xianling didn’t understand how the Spiritual Power test was conducted or how it was supposed to end, so she was extremely confused by the current situation. No matter how she looked at it, it just felt wrong.
"Of course not!" Wang Bi’Er shook her head, then turned to Murong Liu in a panic. "Sixth Grandmaster, what... what’s happening? Why aren’t the results showing?"
Wang Bi’Er was sick with worry. This was completely different from the Spiritual Power tests she knew about. Some unknown change had definitely occurred, and she was terrified that Tang Yi might be in danger because of it.
"I don’t know either. It seems something has gone wrong." Murong Liu frowned. He had never seen a situation like this before. He had tested the Spiritual Power of countless candidates and West Mansion Disciples, but nothing like this had ever happened.
"What? Something’s wrong? Is Tang Yi in danger?"
On the other side, Mu Xianling had felt something was off about the test from the start. But since a Hall Master of the West Mansion was here helping Tang Yi, she hadn’t given it much thought. Now that her suspicions were confirmed and there was indeed a problem, she paled and grew tense, extremely worried for Tang Yi’s safety.
Mu Xianling couldn’t quite describe her feelings for Tang Yi. Sometimes she hated him. Hated him for being so strong yet tricking her into a bet that made her his servant. He had even humiliated her in all sorts of ways, from spanking her to scolding her.
On top of that, Tang Yi was always flirting and chasing after other women, which made Mu Xianling burn with resentment and feel utterly displeased.
But at other times, Mu Xianling was deeply grateful to Tang Yi. Grateful that he would step forward when she was in trouble, that he would stand before her and shield her from the storm.
She truly had a love-hate relationship with Tang Yi. However, the moment his safety was on the line, she realized that in the end, her love for him was stronger.
Hearing that Tang Yi was in danger, she became more nervous than anyone else.
"From the looks of it, there’s no immediate danger, but..." Murong Liu hesitated.
Hearing that one word, "but," Mu Xianling’s heart tightened. She pressed, "But what?"
"Sister Mu, don’t be anxious yet. Let’s hear what Sixth Grandmaster has to say," Wang Bi’Er said soothingly from the side. Although she was also worried, she knew panicking was useless right now.
"How can I not be worried? It’s all your fault! Why did you have to make Tang Yi test his Spiritual Power and open some Six Spirits Gate? If anything happens to him, I... I, hmph!"
As Mu Xianling spoke, she huffed and angrily turned her head away.
She really didn’t know what kind of threat to make against Wang Bi’Er.
After all, Wang Bi’Er’s Position was extraordinary. Mu Xianling felt that with her own Position, she could never truly threaten her.
Besides, Wang Bi’Er had meant well and had no intention of harming Tang Yi. An accident had just occurred, leading to this situation.
Mu Xianling actually knew all this, but seeing Tang Yi in trouble, she couldn’t control her anger and ended up lashing out at Wang Bi’Er.
"I... I... I... Waaaah!"
Faced with Mu Xianling’s scolding, Wang Bi’Er was speechless. Her eyes turned red and she looked on the verge of tears. In the end, she couldn’t hold back and started sobbing.
Although she felt wronged, she also thought Mu Xianling was right. If she hadn’t brought Tang Yi here, if she hadn’t made him take the Spiritual Power test, how could this have happened? How could Tang Yi be in danger?
It was all her fault.
"You little brat, watch your mouth. What does this have to do with Bi’Er? She didn’t know this would happen either. Besides, that kid looks fine for now. When I said ’but’ just now, I just meant his Spiritual Power test won’t be over anytime soon, and that he won’t wake up for a while," Murong Liu said with a frown.
"Sister Xianling, Sister Bi’Er meant well, so please don’t blame her. Don’t worry, Brother Tang Yi is blessed by fortune. He’ll be fine."
Seeing Wang Bi’Er cry, Tang Shu, who was still young after all, sniffled as well. But she managed to hold back her tears and even spoke up for Wang Bi’Er.
"Who is my Brother Yi? He’s the idol of our Tang Family’s younger generation! How could a small problem like this possibly stop him? Maybe he’s even doing this on purpose! Maybe this isn’t a crisis for him, but a fortunate opportunity. The Sixth Hall Master already said he’s fine for now, so he’s fine. I bet my Brother Yi is stirring something up, and that’s why this is happening. Relax, everyone. Don’t be so tense."
Tang Piaomiao added. When it came to Tang Yi, he was full of confidence. Tang Yi had already created so many miracles; creating one more now would be no problem. Besides, the current situation couldn’t even be described as needing a miracle.
Hearing everyone speak up one after another, Mu Xianling could only fall silent and fix her gaze tightly on Tang Yi.
Meanwhile, Wang Bi’Er, sobbing, asked Murong Liu, "Sixth... Sixth Grandmaster, since it won’t stop... anytime soon, can we interrupt the test?"
"Absolutely not! If we interrupt it by force, it will cause irreparable damage to that boy. He might even die. So we absolutely must not interrupt." Murong Liu rejected the idea without a second thought.
"I... Alright. It seems we can only wait for the test to end on its own and for Brother Tang Yi to wake up by himself," Wang Bi’Er said helplessly, her small face filled with self-reproach.
After hearing Murong Liu’s words, everyone once again turned their gaze to Tang Yi and began to wait anxiously.
And while everyone was anxiously watching Tang Yi, his consciousness was in a sea of starlight.
Countless motes of starlight were gathering toward his Sea of Consciousness.
One, two, three... An endless ocean of starlight filled his vision, too numerous to count.
