Translator: Larbrestudio Editor: Larbrestudio

A voice that had a mocking intonation caused Wang Xian and Xiao Yu to frown slightly .

Xiao Yu turned around angrily and looked to the one who was speaking .

The voice came from a girl that was approximately 17-18 years old . She had a ponytail and looked extremely pretty . Her proud demeanor made her look just like a little swan .

“I’m talking to my brother and this has nothing to do with you . Moreover, as long as I work hard, I’ll be able to reach Martial Artist Level 4 quickly!”

Xiao Yu gave the girl a harsh stare as she spoke grumpily .

“You? Let’s see if you can even make it into Thistles and Thorns Sect!” The girl looked at Xiao Yu with contempt . She lifted her head proudly and said arrogantly, “I’m already a Level 2 Martial Artist and an expert has agreed to take me as her disciple . ”

“Alright, Yan’er . After you become a Martial Artist, you’ve got to be aware of your identity!”

A middle-aged man beside the girl glanced at Xiao Yu as he spoke to his daughter .

“I understand, father . I’m not an ordinary woman from here on . ” The girl nodded proudly, lifted her head high and ignored Xiao Yu .

Xiao Yu pouted and said angrily, “Who said I can’t enter the Thistles and Thorns Sect . My master is an Elder!”

“What?” The girl beside her was slightly shocked and looked at Xiao Yu . “Your master is an Elder?”

Hmm!

Xiao Yu didn’t want to entertain her . She grabbed Wang Xian’s arm with both of her hands and put on an expression that seemed to suggest that she did not want to entertain her .

Wang Xian patted Xiao Yu’s head . This girl looked just like a young girl from a small family most of the time but she did have times when she was very competitive .

With regard to Xiao Yu’s decision to join the Thistles and Thorns Sect, Wang Xian had no objections and allowed her to do as she wished .

With Wang Xian’s current strength, it would be easy for him to find her a better sect or get her an Art of Cultivation to cultivate .

However, he did not do so . Since it was similar even if she cultivated in other places, it would be fine as long as his sister was happy .

“Lies!”

Seeing Xiao Yu chose to ignore her, the girl beside Xiao Yu grumbled .

Wang Xian glanced at that girl and his lips curved up slightly .

“The Elders of Thistles and Thorns Sect are coming!”





At this moment, a voice pierced the atmosphere . Wang Xian looked over and saw the higher management of Thistles and Thorns Sect walking over .

There were a total of seven people and they wore a common uniform with a logo in the shape of a “thorn” at the chest area . At the forefront of the group was an old lady .

Xiao Yu’s master, Elder Fang, was amongst the group too .

“The old man in the middle is the vice sect leader of Thistles and Thorns Sect, Old Lei . Ordinary matters of the sect were all handled by Old Lei . ”

“The Elders are here . The one beside Old Lei is Zhao Qingshan, an elder of the Zhao Family .

Some people who were familiar with the higher management of Thistles and Thorns Sect commented softly .

As the seven of them approached, the entire training field also quietened down . Everyone looked respectfully towards the seven higher management members of the Thistles and Thorns Sect .

“Time’s up, those who aren’t here don’t have to come . ”

Vice Sect Leader Lei of the Thistles and Thorns Sect looked at the crowd before speaking to another Elder beside her .

“Yes, Vice Sect Leader Lei . Everyone is present . Let’s start with their assessment!”

The other Elder nodded his head, looked at the crowd and announced, “The assessment of the Thistles and Thorns Sect would begin soon . Please get ready . Those who pass our assessment will become a member of the Thistles and Thorns Sect in the future while failures will have to leave . Now, come forward one by one!”

The Elder nodded his head in satisfaction as he saw everyone listening quietly and attentively . He signalled to a young man near him .

The young man nodded his head, brought a book with him and walked towards the transparent hexagon crystal .

“Come forward for the assessment when I call out your name . ”

The young man looked at the crowd and shouted, “Zhang Xing, Pengzhou!”

“Here!” a juvenile answered anxiously .

“Come up!” the young man looked at the juvenile and instructed .

“Yes, yes!”

The juvenile walked to the young man and looked at him anxiously .

“Place your hands on the assessment crystal!” the young man said to the juvenile .

The juvenile nodded his head and placed his hands on the crystal .

A magical thing happened . To his surprise, a black and blurry human figure appeared within the crystal .





When the young man saw it, he shook his head . “Fail, you can go back!”

“Huh?” That juvenile was shocked . With a disappointed look, he lowered his head as he walked back .

“What just happened? How did he fail?”

“How does this assessment work? How do they determine success or failure?”

Below the platform, the crowd looked on with doubts .

“This is an assessment crystal . You can just see it as a piece of unique assessment equipment . When you place your hands on the crystal, dark spots will appear in the crystal . The greater the number of dark spots, the poorer one’s talents are . ”

Below the platform, a middle-aged man from where the Song Family was standing explained to the crowd .

“That’s right . Anyone who touches the assessment crystal will cause the crystal to be tainted . The level of pollution determines one’s talents . The greater the black spots, the poorer one’s talents are . If an image of a black man appeared, it would mean that the person has zero cultivation talents!”

The young man nodded his head and explained to the crowd .

The crowd nodded their heads slightly . The juveniles who were here for the assessment looked anxiously at the assessment crystal .


“Next, Lu Yun!”

Another juvenile walked forward . When he placed his hands on the crystal, a black man figure appeared .

The juvenile was embarrassed .

“Fail, next!”

“Fail, next!”

After four consecutive juveniles failing, the remaining crowd got nervous .

It’s so hard to get into Thistles and Thorns Sect and become a Martial Artist .

“Next, Zi Yan’er”

“Tsk, I’ll definitely pass . ”

Beside Wang Xian and Xiao Yu, that juvenile girl with a ponytail lifted her head, walked forward confidently and placed her hands on the crystal .

Some black spots appeared on the crystal gradually . However, the black spots were clearly much lesser than the previous four candidates .

When the young man saw the black spots in the crystals, he smiled and announced, “Middle-class talents, pass!”





Mm!

Zi Yan’er lifted her head proudly and walked down the platform .

“That juvenile girl actually passed! She’s really lucky . ”

“Middle-class talents are considered to be really great talents for cultivation . ”

The crowd sighed emotionally and looked at the juvenile girl in envy .

The higher management members of Thistles and Thorns Sect also revealed faint smiles while watching from above .

Middle-class talents could be considered as great!

Hmm! When Zi Yan’er walked passed Xiao Yu, she lifted her head proudly and sneered .

Xiao Yu pouted .

“Next!”

The assessment carried on . There was a total of 40 plus juveniles and the assessment was carried out at a quick pace .

Approximately one out of five or six would pass . Moreover, most of them only had ordinary talents .

“Next, Song Aowen!”

When reading out this name, the young man raised his voice and looked to where the Song Family was with a radiant smile .

“Junior brother, you are still taking the assessment? With your strength, it’s a done deal that you can enter our Thistles and Thorns Sect,” the young man said to the approaching Song Aowen with the intention of getting on his good books .

“I have not assessed my own talents previously . Therefore, I would like to give it a try . ”

Song Aowen smiled radiantly and nodded his head as he walked up to the platform .

“Elder Song, your grandson is really talented to reach Martial Artist Level 4 at such a young age . I’m afraid even our disciples aren’t as talented . ” Where the higher management members stood, a middle-aged Elder spoke to Elder Song .

“Haha, he’s still fine!” Elder Song smiled . Although he might have sounded humble, his face was filled with pride .

“Elder Song’s grandson’s talents are at least middle-class . In fact, he might even be better!” Vice Sect Leader smiled and commented .

“At least middle-class and might be even better! Congratulations, Elder Song!” the remaining members congratulated .

“Hehe, let’s take a look . Let’s take a look!” Elder Song said with smiles .

On the platform, Song Aowen walked towards the assessment crystal confidently and placed his hands on it .

Tiny black spots appeared . They were few, even fewer than Zi Yan’er!

The young man was shocked and exclaimed, “High-class talents! High-class talents!”

Upon hearing the exclamations of the young man, Song Aowen smiled proudly . “Not too far-off from what I expected!”

“Junior brother Song, you might be able to reach the heights of Elder Song or even higher in the future!” the young man said with envy .

“Haha, great!” Seeing his grandson’s performance, Elder Song revealed a proud look .

“Congratulations, congratulations!”

Beside him, the other Elders congratulated Elder Song .

Elder Song waved his hand and remarked, “I had not expected this from my grandson either!”

“We are really lucky to recruit a disciple of high-class talents this year,” Vice Sect Leader Lei commented joyously .

“Didn’t junior sister Fang recruit a new disciple? This is Junior sister Fang’s first disciple! I believe her talents should be exceptional too!”

Among the seven people, there were only two female members . Suddenly, the middle-aged lady looked to Elder Fang and asked this jokingly .

“What? Are you thinking of snatching my disciple away again?” Elder Fang asked coldly, glancing emotionlessly at the middle-aged woman .

“Haha, Junior sister Fang, you are reading too much into it . My disciple also has high-class talents . She isn’t much inferior to Elder Song’s disciple . Why would I snatch your disciples?” the middle-aged woman said nonchalantly .

“Tsk! Would the disciple I found last month run over to you suddenly for no reason?” Elder Fang replied coldly .

“That’s her own decision . New things wouldn’t come if the old things aren’t gone! Perhaps this disciple of yours would have top-class talents! Hehe!”

The middle-aged man mocked and embarrassed Elder Fang .

“Alright, let’s carry on!”

Seeing the two female Elders quarrelling, Vice Sect Leader Lei waved his hands helplessly and interrupted .
