Chapter 78

At this moment, Chu Feng’s face was adorned with a radiant smile, one that was so warm it could melt a person’s heart.

But what caught the eye the most at this moment was Chu Feng’s right hand, where he held a bouquet of beautiful flowers, each with seven petals, each petal a different color.

Under the sunlight, they were incredibly beautiful, as if covered with a faint rainbow glow, with several butterflies fluttering around, indicating how fragrant these flowers were.

The rainbow flowers were extremely rare, and one could only encounter them by chance. Yet, at this moment, Chu Feng held a large bouquet of them.

“Of course, the spirit medicine is important to me, but these rainbow flowers are even more important, because you wanted to see them, so I had to pick them for you.” Chu Feng smiled and handed the large bouquet of rainbow flowers to Su Mei.

“I...” Su Mei took the rainbow flowers, not knowing what to do, her heart beating rapidly, feeling both sour and warm, her eyes already a bit moist.

“Aren’t you going to cry from being so moved?” Seeing this, Chu Feng chuckled.

“Get lost, who’s crying.” Su Mei glared at Chu Feng, actually managing to hold back her tears. She then brought her nose close to the rainbow flowers, took a deep breath, and felt the fragrance, smiling happily.

Her smile was very sweet and very beautiful, truly captivating, mesmerizing everyone present, including Chu Feng.

But few knew that Su Mei’s happiness was not just because of the rainbow flowers in her hands, but because of the person who had picked them for her.

“Let’s go quickly, or we’ll fail when the two hours are up.” Su Mei reminded with a smile amidst her joy.

“What about them? They are so badly injured; if they are not treated in time, they might die.” Someone was worried, even though they had also been beaten up, but most of their injuries were just superficial, not comparable to the severe injuries of the Heaven’s Alliance and Sword Dao Alliance members on the ground.

“Don’t worry, I know my limits; they won’t die.” Chu Feng explained.

“Yeah, we don’t need to worry about them. When the assessment time is up, my sister and the others will enter this Azure Dragon Garden and will naturally treat them.”

“Besides, they were the ones who started it, so my sister won’t hold us responsible. Right now, it’s more important to get out of this Azure Dragon Garden quickly.” Su Mei said.

“I know where the exit is, follow me.” Chu Feng smiled and led the way, familiar with the path.

“You, this is your first time here, how do you know where the exit is?” Su Mei followed, somewhat skeptical.

“To help you pick these flowers, I ran through the entire Azure Dragon Garden. Now, I know this place like the back of my hand. Not only do I know where the exit is, but I’ve also picked all the spirit medicines here.” Chu Feng patted his Qiankun bag with a smile.

“You, this guy.”

Hearing Chu Feng’s words, Su Mei was both shocked and moved. She was shocked by Chu Feng’s speed; the Azure Dragon Garden was so vast that it might take a whole day to walk through, yet Chu Feng had managed to cover the entire area in a short time. How fast was he?

As for being moved, it was because Chu Feng had run through the entire Azure Dragon Garden to pick the rainbow flowers for her. For the pure-hearted Su Mei, the feeling of being moved was clearly greater than the shock.

Sure enough, under Chu Feng’s lead, they soon arrived at a grand palace, which was the exit of the Azure Dragon Garden and the entrance to the core area.

Entering the palace, they saw a large hall, in the center of which was a stone platform. On the platform was a triangular stone, one meter tall, divided from bottom to top into green, yellow, and red sections, very beautiful.

Most importantly, on either side of the stone, six old men were seated, each with white hair and a face full of wrinkles, clearly over a hundred years old.

Despite their advanced age, the six old men exuded an extremely powerful aura. Chu Feng’s mental strength could not even detect their true power, indicating that they were all extraordinary individuals.

At this moment, they were all meditating with their eyes closed. Upon hearing the commotion, they slowly opened their eyes. However, when they saw Chu Feng and the others, their aged eyes showed a hint of surprise.

After all, the injuries on Sima Yu and the others were very obvious, clearly not caused by the mechanisms but by human hands. However, these old men did not ask many questions, as they had seen many conflicts among disciples.

“Those are rainbow flowers, and there are so many. Did you pick all the rainbow flowers in the entire Azure Dragon Garden?” An old woman, seeing the rainbow flowers in Su Mei’s hands, was very surprised.

For the old woman’s question, Su Mei could only smile, as she did not know how to answer, feeling only a deep sense of happiness.

“Alright, come over for the test.” Another old man spoke.

Seeing this, Chu Feng and the others did not hesitate, walking up to the peculiar three-colored stone.

The so-called test was to measure their talent value, which would be announced in the core area and known by all core elders and core disciples. The talent value was closely related to the cultivation they would receive in the future.

The testing method was to infuse a strand of spirit energy into the three-colored stone. If the spirit energy was strong enough, it would activate the stone, causing it to emit a brilliant light.

Green represented lower talent, yellow represented middle talent, and red represented higher talent.

Most core disciples had lower talent, with only a few able to activate the yellow section, obtaining middle talent. As for the red section, representing higher talent, only two people had ever activated it.

One was the top disciple of the past, Zhang Tianyi. The other was the current top disciple, Gong Luyun.

“I’ll go first.”

As the leader of the Wing Alliance, Sima Yu stepped forward first, very confident in his talent, believing that activating the yellow section should not be a problem. After all, before Chu Feng, he was considered the top among the inner disciples.

Seeing Sima Yu place his hand on the testing stone, the others, including Su Mei, became tense, as this test would represent their future achievements and determine their future.

“Buzz”

As a strand of spirit energy was infused, the testing stone produced an energy fluctuation. Soon after, the green section at the bottom emitted a green light.
