"I just have a chance." Xiao Ming smiled casually.
"When it comes to talent, you and that girl from the Dan family can be said to be the leaders of this generation in Danta. There is no need to underestimate yourself."
As he said that, Xiao Ming glanced in the direction of the Dan family.
Maybe she noticed Xiao Ming's gaze, and a delicate-looking girl from the Dan family turned her head, looked at Xiao Ming, and then looked away as if she was electrocuted, with a very shy temperament.
Xiao Ming's actions were noticed by Cao Ying, who also glanced at the girl, covered her mouth and smiled softly, her voice was quite charming.
"Sir, being too modest is arrogant~"
"In this competition, even if I am facing you, I will do my best. By the way, congratulations on your breakthrough to the heavenly realm..."
After the last sentence, the voice gradually became quieter. After saying that, Cao Ying took her leave, swaying her waist and walked towards the Cao family's seat.
Behind him, Cao Dan and Cao Xiu, who were known as the Three Great Masters of the Cao family, gave Xiao Ming a smile and hurriedly followed Cao Ying.
Xiao Ming just looked at Cao Ying's back with a smile. He was not wrong. He did have many opportunities. Otherwise, he would not have achieved such an achievement at such an age.
Cao Ying is born with a powerful soul, and Dan Chen has a soul-sucking physique, and is indeed the leader of the younger generation in Danta. However, they have been cultivating in Danta, and their opportunities are not as good as his.
Realm is realm, talent is talent. Realm can represent talent to a certain extent, but only to a certain extent.
After the people of the Cao family took their seats, all the members of the five major families should have arrived. The ground in the hall suddenly began to shake slowly, and the seats where the five families were seated were like pieces of movable floor, gradually moving away.
In the blink of an eye, an extremely spacious square appeared in the center of the hall.
When the square appeared, an energetic old man with white hair walked out slowly and stopped in the center of the square.
The old man's eyes slowly swept across the audience. When he saw Xiao Ming, he paused slightly, then returned to normal, with a smile on his face and said: "Now that the five major families are here, I won't say much.
This year’s assessment will still be conducted by me, do you all have any objections?”
"Elder Sheng Yao, he is indeed in charge this year."
Ye Zhong, who was next to him, sighed with emotion. This elder also had an old relationship with the Ye family, and he usually helped the Ye family. However, the assessment of the five families was not exempt from the eight elders, so there was nothing the other party could do about the previous assessment of the Ye family.
.
…
"It's almost time. All examinees from the five major families should enter."
After a simple opening remarks, Elder Sheng said.
After the words fell, the voices in the field that were originally whispering now became quiet.
Xiao Mingdan stood up, waved his sleeves and robe, and walked slowly towards the center of the square.
At the same time that Xiao Ming stood up, one person from each of the other four families also stood up, and the contestants were not beyond Xiao Ming's expectations.
On the seat of the Cao family, the enchanting Cao Ying stood up.
At the Dan family seat, seeing Cao Ying coming on the stage, Dan Chen, who seemed weak, hesitated for a moment, then stood up and said something to the man next to him, and also stood up.
On the seat of the Bai family, a rather handsome man also stood up, but his face was rather ugly.
The Qiu family is an ordinary-looking man, and his face is even uglier than that of the Bai family. When Xiao Ming appears, first of all, it is undoubtedly Xiao Ming's, and secondly, he feels that it must be his, because the one who appears
He knew several of them, but he was the weakest.
The five people slowly walked down the square, each of them not getting too close.
"Hehe, Cao Ying of the Cao family has met Elder Sheng!"
Cao Ying's charming smile is naturally charming and moving, and her voice is melodious and pleasant, making people feel good about her.
"Dan Chen of the Dan family has met Elder Sheng!"
After Cao Ying, Dan Chen also said respectfully, with his head lowered and shy, which was even more endearing.
"well!"
Elder Sheng stroked his beard and smiled brightly on his old face. Cao Ying and Dan Chen were both disciples of the Dan Pagoda, so of course he would not give in to them.
"Bai Ying of the Bai family has met Elder Sheng."
"Qiu family..."
Facing these two men, Elder Sheng was not so enthusiastic and just nodded indifferently.
When Xiao Ming arrived, Elder Sheng said with a smile on his face: "Elder Xiao, are you representing the Ye family this time?"
"Yes." Xiao Ming nodded, acting very indifferently. He and Elder Sheng both belong to the Eight Great Zhang Lao, so there is no need to be cautious. When it comes to alchemy, Elder Sheng is no better than Xiao Ming.
"It seems that the Ye family's championship is guaranteed this time!"
Elder Sheng glanced over, looked at Xiao Ming, stroked his beard and chuckled. He knew that Xiao Ming's soul had broken through to the heavenly realm a few days ago, but the other four were not even in the spiritual realm. Xiao Ming participated in this kind of assessment.
It seems a bit bullying.
However, this kind of thing does not violate the regulations, and Xiao Ming is actually not very old, so Elder Sheng did not say anything.
"The people taking the assessment have all arrived, so let's start today's assessment."
After saying this, Elder Sheng moved his feet and gradually retreated to an object covered by black cloth.
He casually pulled off the black cloth, revealing a stone tablet that was about ten feet high. In fact, it is not very accurate to call it a stone tablet, because the stone tablet was extremely transparent and looked like crystal.
"Our assessment is divided into three items, and the first item is the soul test."
Speaking of business, Elder Sheng's smile faded, and he looked serious. He glanced at the five contestants including Xiao Ming and said slowly:
"As we all know, the soul is the most important foundation for an alchemist. Only a strong enough soul can have sufficient soul perception and soul control."
Elder Sheng raised his hand and pointed to the center of the stone tablet, where there was a round smooth mirror plate, and said:
"You each input your soul power into the stone tablet, and on this mirror disk, your soul value will be tested. This value is called the soul value in Danta."
"As long as the soul value reaches more than 400, it is considered a passing grade. In the soul value test conducted by the five major families in recent years, the highest record holder is a woman named Danyun, with a value of 789."
"However, I think this record will definitely be broken today."
Having said this, Elder Sheng's eyes also fell on Xiao Ming, and everyone's eyes followed Elder Sheng's words and all looked at Xiao Ming.
Also, with Xiao Ming at the eighth level, wouldn't breaking this record be the same as playing? They only care about the specific value Xiao Ming measured.
At this time, Elder Sheng secretly sent a message to Xiao Ming.
"Elder Xiao, please restrain yourself later. The stone tablet cannot withstand the soul power of the heavenly realm."
When Xiao Ming heard this, he paused for a moment, then nodded slightly. He had no intention of taking action with all his strength.
Seeing Xiao Ming nod, Elder Sheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief and shouted to everyone.
"Now that everyone understands the rules, who will test them first?"
Cao Ying smiled tenderly, turned her narrow phoenix eyes, and glanced at the calm-looking Xiao Ming with a charming look. She swayed her waist and took the initiative to step forward, saluted Elder Sheng, and said with a smile:
"Mr. Xiao Ming is here today. The highest record must have been set by him. However, let me break this record first."
Standing in front of the stone tablet, he raised his jade hand gently and slowly pressed it on the stone tablet. Suddenly, a terrifying soul storm rose around him.
Suddenly, the smooth disk in the center of the stone tablet immediately displayed a series of blood-red numbers, and this series of blood-red numbers was still changing. It took a full ten seconds for the series of numbers to become fixed.
