Chapter 15 - Cheating?
The orb finally turned white. But if you look at it carefully, it contained some silver within it. Also, there were no particles surrounding it. Nobody could see it from a distance but the old man saw it. Before the old man could see it carefully, Davion quickly pulled out his hands and the orb returned to normal.
"Did I see a little silver in it? But there are no records of the orb being silver. It looks like I have been mistaken." Forgetting about this, the old man quickly shouted, "Grade 1 spiritual root but no affinity with elements." He took out a talisman and used his spiritual energy to carve this information in it and handed it over to Davion.
Davion bowed and left the platform. After seeing Davion getting grade 1 spiritual root, Nisha became happy.
Seeing her smiling Jasmine poured cold water on her, "What is the use of this spiritual root? It is even difficult for them to sense Qi. So, to just step into the Qi refining state, they need rare spiritual treasures. But you are different, you are born with a holy physique, you have no bottlenecks. So, you guys are different, one is mortal and another is someone who will fly high through the heavens. So, you should not have contact with him ever again."
"Yes, I know, we just met on the way. He should be able to protect himself in the future. I will just meet him one last time before leaving to the sect.", said Nisha.
"Damn, I am really lucky. I nearly got caught. I used my spiritual energy to imitate the color of the orb. But I didn\'t know my spiritual energy contained a little bit of silver. At level 14, I can only take out a little bit of energy from my body. Whew, I nearly got exhausted." thought Davion.
"It looks like I don\'t have a spiritual root. If I didn\'t have a spiritual root, how could I practice the Mind-Eye technique? It could have been due to my golden finger. It looks like the only thing I can do now is to join a small sect and find a way to earn experience points." Thinking about this Davion made his way to the tents of those middle and smaller sects.
"With my poor spiritual root, I won\'t be able to join the middle-grade sects. It looks like I can only enquire about the low-level sects and try to join any one of them."
While Davion was enquiring about the sects, the ceremony was happening as usual without any extraordinary things, until a boy wearing a hood came. He came to the middle of the platform and put his hands on the orb. The orb turned red and the projection of a bird came into view. It was fully made of thunder. It was at least 10 feet tall.
Seeing this, Leo laughed out loud," HAHA, finally I found a good talent. Grade 5 spiritual root and a thunderhawk bloodline. Boy, do you wish to join my sect?"
The boy agreed without hesitation. Even though Davion was enquiring about the sects, he could still see that huge vision. "Sigh, so unfortunate. It looks really cool. Why doesn\'t my golden finger have those functions to buy those bloodlines, artifacts, and techniques like those in the novels." complaining about it, Davion finally came to a tent. This is one of the lower grade sects in the Southern Region.
There was a huge signboard in front. Its name was "Iron Sword Sect". When he was about to enter, he was stopped by a person guarding the tent. That person was wearing his sect\'s clothing which was brown in color and he had a sword strapped behind his back.
He asked, "Are you here to join the sect?"
"Yes, I have finished checking my qualification and I am here to join." Davion bowed and answered respectfully. He also took out his talisman that he received and showed it.
Seeing Grade 1 spiritual root with no affinity to elements, he laughed out loud and said, "How dare trash with this talent try to join our sect? Don\'t you know that no sects recircuit a person with grade 1 spiritual roots? Hehe, only some sects recruit them as handyman servants which can be used to serve those outer disciples. Grade 2 spiritual root is the minimum requirement for those lower grade sects."
Saying this, he wanted to push Davion out. As an outer disciple in the peak of body refining state, he used a little bit of power to push Davion but he noticed that he couldn\'t shake Davion. Seeing this he got angry and used more power to push Davion to the ground.
Davion finally saw that the disciple wanted to use force to push him to the ground. So, he simply dodged to the left and used his right leg to knock him. Davion thought that the opponent was strong as he was a disciple of a sect. But who could have thought that the person was too weak? The disciple vomited blood and got knocked out at least 3 meters away. Seeing this he got nervous and quickly used his spiritual energy in his legs to quickly run away.
A few minutes later, the disciple woke up and wiped the blood from his mouth. "Damn, how could a person just taking a qualification test be this strong? This tent is far away and my senior brothers are on the platform, so nobody has seen it. If anybody had seen it then I would have lost my face. Brat, just you wait, If I see you next time, I will definitely beat you."
After going a little far away, Davion finally stopped. "It looks like I am safe for now. Next time I will definitely use my Mind-Eye technique before striking. I have much more to learn. It looks like I have to see if there are any sects that will accept disciples having grade 1 spiritual root."
In this way, Davion started to enquire and collect information about all the lower grade sects.
