From the look of it all, the Spiritual Power test was about to end, and the results were ready to be revealed.
Tang Yi’s face had grown rosy, and his body was no longer trembling. Moreover—and they couldn’t tell if it was just their imagination—the crowd felt that Tang Yi’s complexion seemed even better than before.
Murong Liu glanced over and, with a great deal of experience, said, "The Spiritual Power test has ended. The results are coming out. Your friend is fine."
Hearing this, the crowd collectively breathed a sigh of relief. Then they raised their heads to look at the statue’s mouth.
Since Tang Yi was fine, what the crowd was most concerned about now was his Spiritual Power Talent.
Aside from Murong Liu, who didn’t know Tang Yi, everyone else was aware of his strength. They all wanted to know just what kind of Spiritual Power Cultivation a Demon like Tang Yi would possess.
Just then...
WHOOSH!
A semi-translucent, brilliant white wreath was spat out by the statue.
One wreath represented one layer of Spiritual Power Cultivation.
With one wreath spat out, this meant that Tang Yi possessed a single layer of Spiritual Power Cultivation.
This level of Talent was average among the candidates, not considered outstanding. After all, most of the new candidates were at about this level.
However...
It wasn’t over yet.
WHOOSH!
Another wreath was spat out.
Two wreaths!
Tang Yi possessed a 2nd Layer of Spiritual Power Cultivation!
Among the candidates, this was already an upper-mid-tier level.
Murong Liu felt much better seeing that Tang Yi actually possessed a 2nd Layer of Spiritual Power Cultivation. After all, he was the one who had to open the Six Spirits Gate for him.
If Tang Yi were just a good-for-nothing with only one layer of Spiritual Power Cultivation, or even worse, Murong Liu would still have opened the Six Spirits Gate for him out of consideration for Wang Bi’Er. But he certainly wouldn’t have been able to get over the hurdle in his own heart.
But things were much better now. With at least a 2nd Layer of Spiritual Power Cultivation, Tang Yi didn’t seem so useless.
However, the surprises were far from over.
WHOOSH!
A third wreath was spat out by the statue.
A 3rd Layer of Spiritual Power Cultivation!
Tang Yi had never cultivated Spiritual Power, yet he actually possessed a 3rd Layer. Among the candidates, this was considered a top-tier level.
"I knew Brother Tang Yi was amazing! It’s just as I expected, he’s truly outstanding. And from the looks of it, there’s more to come!"
Seeing that Tang Yi was fine, Wang Bi’Er had recovered from her guilt. When she spoke of Tang Yi’s Talent, she looked as proud as if she were talking about her own.
"Mm, the Snake Ancestor statue’s lips are still trembling. There should be another one."
Murong Liu nodded. He couldn’t help but give Tang Yi another look, finding him much more agreeable now. A 4th Layer of Spiritual Power Cultivation—such Talent was rare among the candidates and was already considered exceptional.
’No wonder Wang Bi’Er was so sure Tang Yi could enter the West Mansion. No wonder she kept insisting that I open the Six Spirits Gate for him. A person with this kind of talent is indeed worth guaranteeing, and indeed worthy of having the Six Spirits Gate opened for him.’
’As long as Tang Yi passes the West Mansion’s House Entrance Examination, getting into the Dui Palace will be no problem. In fact, the Dui Palace will do everything it can to recruit him.’
’It won’t just be the Dui Palace. With this kind of Talent, every single palace will try its hardest to recruit him.’
After all, Spiritual Power was also related to the speed of one’s Martial Arts Cultivation. The higher the Spiritual Power Cultivation, the faster one’s Martial Arts Cultivation would be.
Of course, some might ask: if higher Spiritual Power leads to faster Martial Arts Cultivation, then why was the Dui Palace still ranked at the very bottom in terms of strength?
The reason the Dui Palace’s disciples were at the bottom wasn’t because their Martial Arts Cultivation couldn’t keep up. It was because they spent all their time cultivating Spiritual Power, leaving no time to cultivate their Martial Dao. Furthermore, cultivating Spiritual Power was incredibly difficult; sometimes, years would pass without the slightest bit of progress. That’s why the Dui Palace’s disciples were lacking in both Martial Dao and Spiritual Power, thus becoming the ones at the bottom of the ranks.
"Bi’Er, so three wreaths mean a 3rd Layer of Spiritual Power Cultivation? You just said Brother Yi has one more, which means my Brother Yi has a 4th Layer of Spiritual Power Cultivation. Let me ask, is a 4th Layer of Spiritual Power Cultivation very impressive?"
Tang Piaomiao had no frame of reference, so he didn’t know what level Tang Yi’s 4th Layer of Spiritual Power Cultivation truly represented.
"Let me put it this way," Wang Bi’Er began to explain. "Before reaching the Battle Spirit Level, if someone hasn’t cultivated Spiritual Power and doesn’t have exceptional Spiritual Power Talent, they would typically have a 1st Layer of Spiritual Power Cultivation, which is average. Reaching the 2nd Layer is considered to have upper-mid-tier aptitude. Reaching a 3rd Layer of Spiritual Power means one’s aptitude is outstanding, a truly remarkable existence. Someone like Brother Tang Yi, with a 4th Layer of Spiritual Power Cultivation, can already be called a genius."
"Oh, I see." Tang Piaomiao nodded, his anticipation growing. He felt that Tang Yi’s Spiritual Power Cultivation shouldn’t stop there.
’After all, who was Tang Yi? He was the peerless genius of their Tang Family! What was a mere 4th Layer of Spiritual Power? When Tang Yi did something, he did it in a heaven-shocking way.’
This was the conclusion Tang Piaomiao had drawn from following Tang Yi for so long.
’When had Tang Yi ever done something that wasn’t heaven-shocking?’
And just as Tang Piaomiao had thought, after the fourth wreath emerged as expected, the statue trembled once more and spat out a fifth wreath.
That did it. It was like kicking an anthill. The moment the fifth wreath appeared, it seemed to set off a chain reaction. Wreath after wreath began to pour out of the statue’s mouth.
The sixth, seventh, eighth...
If a 4th Layer of Spiritual Power Cultivation was considered a genius, then what did that make Tang Yi, who had produced eight wreaths and possessed an 8th Layer of Spiritual Power Cultivation?
A Demon?
’Perhaps even ’Demon’ isn’t enough to describe him, is it?’
Because the wreaths hadn’t stopped coming.
The ninth, tenth, eleventh...
Only when the fifteenth wreath was spat out did the statue stop trembling. Everything returned to calm.
At this moment, Murong Liu, who was standing to the side, was completely dumbfounded.
’What is going on?’
’Tang Yi’s test took a little long and had some issues just now. Did the test results have issues too?’
A 15th Layer of Spiritual Power Cultivation!
’Not even the most outstanding disciple of our Dui Palace has such a high Spiritual Power Cultivation!’
’Even I, the Sixth Hall Master of the Dui Palace, only have a 19th Layer of Spiritual Power Cultivation!’
It must be understood that both Murong Liu and the disciples of the Dui Palace had cultivated their Spiritual Power. For Tang Yi to possess a 15th Layer of Spiritual Power Cultivation without ever having trained it was simply unimaginable.
’There must be some kind of problem. There has to be,’ Murong Liu thought.
"Ah!"
On the other side, Wang Bi’Er’s eyes went wide, and she let out a cry of shock, completely stunned by the Talent Tang Yi had just displayed.
She had always known Tang Yi was amazing. His strength was terrifying, and his Level was very high. But she never knew that even his Spiritual Power was this fearsome.
’A 15th Layer of Spiritual Power Cultivation... Oh my god.’
’This is more than ten times higher than the Talent of an ordinary candidate!’
But at that moment, Wang Bi’Er seemed to think of something. She hurriedly said to Murong Liu, "Sixth Grandmaster, stop spacing out! The Spiritual Power test is about to end. Quickly, open the Six Spirits Gate!"
