"......"
After hearing Ye Feng's words, a strange look immediately appeared on their faces. They naturally wouldn't think so, as they had the resources of their sect. But even with these resources, what good did it do? They were still far behind Ye Feng.
Although they believed that Ye Feng's rapid cultivation was due to his mysterious medicinal sect master.
But what did it matter? Weren't they also relying on their families and sects?
Originally, when they were on the platform, they planned to tell the elders of their sect that Ye Feng was a pharmacist and likely had a pharmacist from the medicinal sect behind him. However, they knew that such a situation was not suitable for saying so, as it might completely anger Ye Feng.
They just didn't expect the sect elders to say such a thing. Based on their understanding of Ye Feng, they knew that Ye Feng would not join their sect.
Usually, Ye Feng seemed very easy-going, but they all knew that Ye Feng had his pride and confidence.
Actually, it was quite normal to think about it. Without joining any force, to cultivate to this level at the age of sixteen, how could he not have pride and confidence?
"Alright, it's not easy for you to come to Qing Shuang City. Stay at my place tonight, and I'll cook something delicious for you!"
Seeing their expressions, Ye Feng said with a smile.
"Haha, great, I've been craving it for these few days......"
Seeing that Ye Feng wasn't at all disheartened by the matter, they all shouted happily.
When Ye Feng and the others laughed and talked, they arrived home. Ye Chenshan and his wife, Ye Hao, Zhou Wu, Fang Zheng, and others were anxiously waiting at home.
However, when Ye Feng returned, and they saw the smile on his face, they all showed a hint of surprise.
These people were all seasoned individuals; they could tell whether someone was genuinely smiling or faking it. Now, Ye Feng's smile was not the least bit forced, which was what made them curious.
Not only were these people surprised, but even Bai Lingyu and the others were very surprised. They didn't expect to see Fang Zheng at the Ye family.
"Could the pharmacist behind Ye Feng be Fang Zheng?"
This thought instantly appeared in their minds when they saw Fang Zheng.
The fact that Ye Feng had a medicinal sect behind him was just their guess; it could also be a high-level pharmacist! After all, Fang Zheng was the top pharmacist in Lan Shui County.
"Master Fang!"
Seeing Fang Zheng, Bai Lingyu and the others quickly greeted him.
Such a person, not to mention them, even their sect wouldn't want to offend. If their previous guess that Ye Feng had a pharmacist behind him was just a guess, it was now confirmed.
At this moment, they all felt a bit regretful for not explaining to the sect elders earlier that Ye Feng was a pharmacist. If Ye Feng were a pharmacist, he would be more than qualified to be a core disciple.
But regret was of no use.
"Little Brother Ye, are you willing to join our Tian Bao Pavilion? If both you and your brother join and become core disciples, it would be a great story!"
Seeing that Ye Feng was unharmed, Fang Zheng said to him.
This was the purpose of their visit. At today's assessment, they actually saw Ye Feng's potential.
When they saw Ye Feng eliminated, Ye Chenshan and his wife naturally worried, so they rushed back. They didn't expect Fang Zheng to follow and offer Ye Feng a place in the Tian Bao Pavilion.
Ye Chenshan thought Fang Zheng was doing it for his sake and was very happy. In fact, he didn't know that Fang Zheng had long wanted to recruit Ye Feng into the Tian Bao Pavilion. Regardless of Ye Feng's potential, even if he had no potential, what did it matter?
Not only did Ye Feng have the talent of a pharmacist, but he might even be a spirit user. Who wouldn't want to recruit such a person?
Even if Ye Feng turned out to be nothing, so what? It would just be a waste of some resources. Unlike a sect, the Tian Bao Pavilion was never short of resources.
However, they didn't expect Ye Hao's potential to be so good.
Originally, Fang Zheng had hinted at this before, but Ye Feng had politely declined. Fang Zheng was also a proud person and didn't bring it up again.
This time, after recruiting Ye Hao, Ye Feng was eliminated, so he naturally had to mention it. What did it matter if his potential was poor? The poorer Ye Feng's potential, the greater the possibility that he was a spirit user. Otherwise, how could Ye Feng break two levels in just an hour?
Ye Chenshan didn't say much about Ye Feng's potential. After all, he had checked when Ye Feng was young, and although it wasn't accurate, he had a general idea. However, Ye Feng's attributes surprised him.
Even if Ye Feng's medicine could speed up cultivation, the difference between attribute cultivation techniques and basic cultivation techniques was still significant. Moreover, attribute martial techniques could unleash unpredictable power, but Ye Feng's attributes prevented him from utilizing this power.
Therefore, Ye Feng was a bit of a liability. Now that the superpower Tian Bao Pavilion wanted to recruit Ye Feng and treat him as a core disciple, how could Ye Chenshan not be tempted?
Even if Ye Feng had the potential to be a spirit user and a pharmacist, he still needed to grow. Both of these required a massive amount of resources, especially for a pharmacist. Even the Ye family could only cultivate a high-level pharmacist, let alone just one person. To advance further, only a place like the Tian Bao Pavilion could provide the necessary resources for his growth.
Spirit users were not simple either. Their weapons were often exorbitantly priced, and ordinary forces couldn't afford them. Not to mention the pills needed for a spirit user's growth.
Spirit users were powerful, but they also consumed a lot of resources. Everything was interconnected, making the Tian Bao Pavilion the best choice.
"......I'm afraid I will have to disappoint Master Fang. Ye Feng's ambition is to go out and see the vast world, to pursue the ultimate in martial arts......"
Ye Feng was very surprised by Fang Zheng's recruitment. So many major sects had given up, and he didn't expect Fang Zheng to extend an olive branch.
Ye Feng knew deep down that joining the Tian Bao Pavilion was the best choice, but he wasn't ready for it yet. Perhaps in a few years, he would join, but definitely not now.
Moreover, whether he joined or not, it wouldn't make much of a difference to him.
Uh......
When Ye Feng's words fell, everyone present was stunned. They knew Ye Feng had great ambitions, but they didn't expect him to want to pursue the ultimate in martial arts.
"Ah!"
Fang Zheng sighed without saying anything.
To him, Ye Feng's ideal was a joke. After all, in ten thousand years, no one in the entire Tian Lang Continent had dared to claim they had reached the ultimate in martial arts. But he couldn't stop him.
Fang Zheng and Zhou Wu left. Fang Zheng felt regretful, but Zhou Wu didn't. After Ye Feng showed such potential, whether or not he joined didn't matter. As long as he had Ye Hao, he was content.
As long as he firmly grasped a genius like Ye Hao, the benefits he would receive in the future would be considerable.
At this moment, Bai Lingyu and the others realized that the genius with eighth-grade potential at today's assessment was Ye Feng's brother.
What kind of family was the Ye family? Both brothers, Ye Feng was a monstrous existence in their eyes, and his brother was even more monstrous, with eighth-grade potential. They didn't know what to do.
'What a pity that such a genius, their sect didn't retain any!'
Thinking of this, they all sighed inwardly. However, they quickly let it go. They were still young, and they didn't need to worry about sect matters yet.
Bai Lingyu and the others stayed at the Ye family for three days before leaving one by one.
The Leap Dragon Gate assessment took two days and was over. Some were happy, and some were crying. Ten sects each selected three hundred disciples.
Ten years later, how many of these three hundred disciples would still be alive, and how many would join the inner sect, was unknown. However, from the information Ye Chenshan received, less than two out of ten would survive, and having three to five join the inner sect would be very impressive.
Only inner sect members were considered true sect disciples. Outer sect members merely had a chance to join the inner sect.
In addition to Ye Hao, another disciple from Niu Jiao Village, Liu Shan, joined the sect. This surprised everyone. Liu Shan was usually unassuming but had fourth-grade potential. Although he didn't pass the third test, he was exceptionally admitted by the sect.
Ma Kui's smile never left his face from the end of the assessment to his return to Niu Jiao Village.
This assessment was a great harvest for Niu Jiao Village. Two joined the sect, and Ye Hao was a core disciple of the Tian Bao Pavilion. This was a golden opportunity for Niu Jiao Village to rise.
Ma Kui took the young people who didn't join the sect back. He had to return now, even though he wanted to stay in the city. He knew he couldn't, as the sect's rewards would soon be distributed to Niu Jiao Village. This was an honor and a lot of resources. He would be foolish to stay here.
