“Hmm?”

Ping Yuzi immediately turned his head and his lips revealed a smile.

“Half a day and already a Dragon Vein has been activated? Not bad, not bad.”

“Buzz~”

No sooner had he spoken than someone else activated a Dragon Vein, its golden light exceptionally dazzling and intoxicating.

Following that person, one after another, Dragon Veins were activated, and the entire square was filled with the golden light.

“Hahaha, good!”

Ping Yuzi laughed joyfully, “It seems this selection is quite interesting indeed. If I recall, the first place last time took almost half a day just to activate their first Dragon Vein.”

“This round is not bad.”

The light barrier opened and some people walked in, it was Bai Yu, Xiao Yuhui, and their four companions.

These four had been standing outside all the time, blocked by the light barrier, unable to see everything that was happening inside.

Now that someone had activated a Dragon Vein, they sensed it and naturally came in.

“Now that someone has already activated a Dragon Vein, it seems very likely that today someone might activate two, or even three Dragon Veins!” Bai Yu said with a smile.

“Three, I dare not hope for, but if we can get two, that would be good.”

Ping Yuzi looked towards the blue-clothed young man who had activated the Dragon Vein first and asked, “I remember, he is the Young Master of the Leng Family from Nan Qing County City, Leng Yihui, right?”

“Yes.” Xiao Yuhui nodded.

“It is said that this young man has already activated Eight Dragon Veins, and now he is the first to activate another. It seems he truly has great potential. If he can activate one more, that would make ten, enough to stand shoulder to shoulder with you, Yuhui,” teased Ping Yuzi.

Xiao Yuhui’s expression was calm, and she said little.

The current assessment was for potential, not actual strength.

Even if Leng Yihui activated two Dragon Veins today, it did not necessarily mean that giving him a Gold Rank Spirit Artifact afterward would truly enable him to activate ten Dragon Veins.

If that were so, wouldn’t the possessors of ten Dragon Veins on the Dragon Martial Continent be as common as could be?

“I’m optimistic about Hu Zhengyao from Huang’an County City. This person has already activated nine Dragon Veins. If our Cold Cloud Sect can cultivate him well, activating ten Dragon Veins should not be difficult,” suggested Bai Yu.

“Haha!”

Ping Yuzi laughed heartily: “Regardless, this time our Cold Cloud Sect has made a profit. I didn’t expect that so many geniuses would appear. Not to mention ten Dragon Veins, even eight or nine Dragon Veins are very rare on the Dragon Martial Continent. I never imagined that this small Yuanshan County would not only produce an unmatched genius like Yuhui but also these kids to complement her. This place must truly be blessed with outstanding people and a perfect environment!”

Bai Yu and the others nodded slightly too, as they also didn’t expect so many geniuses to emerge.

In theory, with such talents, joining those Eighth-Rate or Seventh-Rate Sects would be possible. Although the treatment might not be as good as in a Ninth-Rate Sect, at least those are Eighth-Rate, Seventh-Rate Sects.

“Yuhui, weren’t you looking forward to Su Han’s performance?”

Bai Yu laughed as he scanned the crowd, finally resting his gaze on a figure in white.

When Bai Yu saw Su Han, he was slightly startled and asked in confusion, “What is he eating?”

Xiao Yuhui also noticed Su Han and saw he was occasionally tossing something into his mouth, completely lacking the appearance of someone in cultivation, leading to a hint of embarrassment on her pretty face.

“This guy, always so casual no matter where he is,” muttered Xiao Yuhui, feeling an urge to roll her eyes.

It wasn’t that she had lost faith in Su Han, but she thought, ‘No matter what, this is the Cold Cloud Sect’s test, can’t you follow the rules a bit?’

While others are working hard activating their Dragon Veins, cultivating, you, on the other hand, have started eating?

“Hmph!”

Seeing Su Han, Ping Yuzi felt anger rising and coldly huffed, “This little fellow, he hasn’t taken our Cold Cloud Sect’s test seriously at all. The Gold Rank Spirit Artifact he conjured was just thrown away by him, saying it was of no use to him. Does the old man not know that it’s of no use to him? It’s fake, who would it be useful for? But this stage is about assessing his potential, does he really expect us to give him a genuine Gold Rank Spiritual Object?”

Seeing Ping Yuzi’s angry look, Xiao Yuhui couldn’t help but speak up, “Su Han, what are you doing? There’s only half a day left. If you don’t start activating your Dragon Veins, you will end up at the bottom.”

“Let it be the bottom then,” Su Han said indifferently.

“You!”

Xiao Yuhui’s cheeks puffed up with anger, and her full chest heaved up and down, obviously quite infuriated.

However, thinking about Su Han’s twenty Dragon Veins, her anger quickly subsided.

Indeed, with twenty Dragon Veins already activated, even if we were to give him a real Gold Rank Spirit Artifact, it probably wouldn’t be of much use, right?

“Forget about him, this boy is not suitable for the Cold Cloud Sect,” Ping Yuzi said in a cold voice.

If it had been someone else, that sentence would have determined their fate, but Su Han didn’t care about what you said, he simply ignored it.

“Is this the ‘number one’ in your heart?”

Bai Yu looked at Xiao Yuhui and said with a light laugh, “I don’t think he seems like it!”

“Whether he seems like it or not, you will know,” Xiao Yuhui said.

…

As time passed, another three hours went by.

“Hum~”

At this moment, another droning sound emerged from Leng Yihui’s body, and he actually condensed another Dragon Vein!

“Ten!!!”

Ping Yuzi’s pupils shrank, and he laughed heartily, “Hahaha, Leng Yihui’s potential is indeed not low, he actually opened another Dragon Vein. After he joins the Cold Cloud Sect, if no one else contends for him, I am determined to take him as a disciple!”

“Congratulations, Elder,” said Bai Yu and others, with a smiling fist salute.

Before long, evening arrived.

A blush of sunset rose to the sky, casting its yellow glow through the light barrier, reflected on the bodies of these people inside.

“It’s time!”

Ping Yuzi suddenly spoke, his voice exceedingly loud, awakening all those young ones who were still trying to open their Dragon Veins.

“Sigh, I still didn’t manage to open one.”

“What a pity, if I had a bit more time, I definitely could have opened one.”

“Not too bad, I’ve opened one Dragon Vein.”

Around them, there were sighs, regrets, or excited remarks coming from these people.

Out of thousands of people, the majority didn’t manage to open even a single Dragon Vein, with only about a hundred opening one Dragon Vein.

The only one who opened two Dragon Veins was Leng Yihui.

“You don’t need to sigh, don’t feel regretful; at least you’ve made the effort,” Ping Yuzi’s voice was somewhat cold.

Hearing this, everyone was momentarily stunned, thinking to themselves that there seemed to be an implied meaning in Ping Yuzi’s words.

Indeed, Ping Yuzi then turned to look at Su Han and coldly snorted, “You all should recognize this person, right? His name is Su Han, he is too proud, completely looking down on our Cold Cloud Sect’s potential evaluation, and even threw that Spiritual Object aside. The old man really wants to know if we were to actually give you a Gold Rank Spirit Artifact, would you throw it away too?”

Hearing this, a sneering laughter rose from the crowd.
