Lu Yun’s eyes slightly lifted, looking across the sky, his gaze piercing through the layers of clouds.
In the sky, a gigantic shadow resembling a huge roc could faintly be seen.
“Is it always staying here?” Lu Yun muttered softly.
That was the No.5 Mysterious Ship, parked in midair above Orchid Square at the moment.
As soon as the three tests were completed, the ship would descend to carry the disciples who passed the tests back to the Flying Spirit Martial Academy.
Time slowly passed, and after about six hours, the Innate Talent Test was finally completed.
If not for Gu Yuan shattering another Innate Talent Stone, it wouldn’t have taken so long.
Apart from Baili Yi, there were seven other lucky youngsters who tested to have Level 5 Innate Talent.
Five of them were boys, and two were girls.
Among them, two had top-tier Level 5 Innate Talent, while the rest had ordinary Level 5 Innate Talent.
However, no one had Level 6 Innate Talent.
But such results were already far beyond Lu Yun’s expectations.
Even if Gu Yuan’s shattering of the Innate Talent Stone was ignored, Baili Yi and the eight Level 5 Innate Talent youngsters would earn Lu Yun and Xiao Chen an extra 3,000 Contribution Points, plus the 3,000 points from completing the basic task – totaling 6,000 points.
After returning to the Martial Academy and handing over the task, each of Lu Yun and Xiao Chen would gain at least 3,000 Contribution Points.
After the Innate Talent Test, there were only a little over 2,000 people left out of the original more than 10,000.
Looking at the many boys and girls with hopeful and longing gazes, Lu Yun felt a mixture of emotions in his heart.
Even though it was a once-in-five-years quota, Flying Spirit Martial Academy only gave East Field County very few spots – a total of 360.
Apart from Gu Yuan and Bai Li Yi, and the other six Level 5 Innate Talent geniuses, the rest were battling for 351 spots.
This competition was far more intense than Cloud Water County’s.
With a light sigh, Lu Yun said to Xiao Chen, “You should preside over the third test!”
“Alright.”
Xiao Chen agreed and flew down from the high platform.
His sharp and profound eyes scanned the crowd and said, “The next test is the strength test, which is the final one.”
“Except for Baili Yi and the other seven top-tier Level 5 Innate Talent individuals, everyone else must participate. After the test, the top 351 results will be selected irrespective of their Innate Talent.”
“Alright, let’s start the test now.”
As Xiao Chen spoke, five squads of soldiers had already set up five Measuring Strength Pillars.
As before, they were divided into five lines, with about 400 people in each line.
One by one, the youngsters eagerly stepped forward to take the test.
After two hours, the test was over.
Although the selection was irrespective of Innate Talent, most of the top 351 were those with Level 3 and Level 4 Innate Talent.
Only three of them had Level 2 Innate Talent.
Moreover, these three Level 2 Innate Talent individuals were all older with higher cultivation, which contributed to their results.
Not long after the test ended, a large black shadow engulfed the sky above Orchid Square.
Boom!
Under the shocked gazes of the people, the mysterious ship, resembling a giant roc, slowly descended and finally stopped in the air about five or six feet above the ground.
“Junior brothers, follow me onto the mysterious ship!”
As the words fell, Xiao Chen’s figure moved, appearing on the ship.
“Haha, 1 never thought I’d have the chance to ride a mysterious ship, which even my father haven’t had before.” A sturdy young man laughed, then sprinted and leaped onto the ship.
The others also followed suit, using the inertia of their sprint to jump onto the ship.
“Senior Brother Wang, till we meet again,” Lu Yun bowed and then, like a soaring roc, gracefully landed on the ship.
“Junior Brother Lu, I’ll be waiting for you in the Monster Extermination Army!”
Wang Yuhao’s deep voice resounded from afar.
Boom!
Amidst the powerful storm, the No.5 Mysterious Ship slowly ascended, breaking through the clouds and disappearing into the sky above East Field Giant City.
Lu Yun’s gaze landed on Baili Yi and the other eight youngsters with Level 5 Innate Talent, a faint smile appeared on his lips.
To him, these youngsters were just a bunch of spiritual fruits that would soon be converted into a significant amount of Contribution Points, all of which he would exchange for pills, transforming them into energy to increase his power.
A little girl in a flower-strewn pleated skirt unintentionally caught Lu Yun’s malicious gaze and immediately hid behind another girl, dressed in a Smoke-Cloud Butterfly Dress, timidly saying, “Sister, I feel that Senior Brother Lu’s gaze on us is strange, um, a bit like the way the big bad wolf in Grandma’s stories looks at little sheep.”
Chen Yawei gently said, “Menghan, you must be mistaken, Senior Brother Lu and Junior Brother Xiao are both very good people.”
“Sister, I’m not lying to you, 1 really felt it earlier,” Chen Menghan said weakly.
Hearing this, Chen Yawei frowned and thought hard for a while before teasing in a low voice, “Hehe, could it be that Senior Brother Lu really fancies you, the little sheep?”
“All, I’m not talking to you anymore, sister.” Chen Menghan turned away with blushing cheeks.
Half an hour later, the mysterious ship stopped at Jade Light County.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Two figures swiftly landed on the ship.
“Haha, Junior Brother Xiao, Junior Brother Lu, you’re finally here. We’ve been waiting for half a month!”
Zhang Zhihe rushed towards Lu Yun and Xiao Chen, while the other person was arranging the disciples who had passed the test to board the ship.
“Seeing Senior Brother Zhang’s beaming face, I suppose you’ve found quite a few Level 5 Innate Talent individuals?” Lu Yun smiled and asked tentatively..
