Chapter 1302: Chapter 1303: Qualification Assessment! (Part 2)

Thinking about it, Lin Mu turned to Tuoba Yan with a hearty smile and said, ”What about Miss Tuoba? Do you want this qualification token?”

”I think my talent should be passable.”

Tuoba Yan shook her head at Lin Mu; Ling Feng was so bold, she couldn’t let Ling Feng down!

”Alright then, it seems my trip was for nothing.”

Lin Mu grinned but stayed at the Moxue Mountain Villa instead of leaving.

Mo Qiuhua was more than welcoming, arranging for Lin Mu and Yeu Linglong to stay at the villa. The villa was festive, except for Mo Sanqing, who was feeling downcast, greatly demoralized and only wished he could find a hole to crawl into.

Time flew by.

In the blink of an eye, the day when the Five Spirit Hall would officially issue the qualification tokens arrived. Lin Mu and the others left Moxue Mountain Villa early to prepare for various matters.

To obtain a qualification token, one naturally had to go through a series of assessments. Unless one is an extremely top-tier talent, everyone has to follow the process and pass a series of assessments to earn a qualification token.

For instance, the previous event when the Three Gods Temple issued qualification tokens, how grand the scene was, yet only a handful of seven or eight geniuses obtained tokens. Mo Sanqing, for instance, was among all those not selected.

And those talents not chosen by the Three Gods Temple, coupled with those who already knew their own limits and didn’t participate, on the Five Spirit Hall’s token-issuing day, their numbers would probably be more than three times that of before.

After all, the Five Spirit Hall has two more halls than the Three Gods Temple, and the selection criteria are broader, offering more chances.

”Young Master Ling, I wish you the best in obtaining the qualification token.”

Mo Qiuhua accompanied Ling Feng and his group to the door, handed over a recommendation letter, and said, ”This is a recommendation letter. When it comes to the final assessment, having a recommendation letter or not entirely changes one’s treatment. Though Moxue Mountain Villa isn’t a top-tier power, it still holds some influence.”

”Thank you, Senior.”

Ling Feng thought for a moment, then accepted the recommendation letter. While he was confident he would far surpass everyone else, some might harbor ill intentions, and the recommendation letter would provide extra assurance.

Even if he didn’t need it, maybe it could be used for Tuoba Yan.

Of course, he didn’t know that Tuoba Yan was already the pre-determined disciple of the Hui Yue Divine Hall Master. Even if he didn’t make it, Tuoba Yan wouldn’t fail.

Mo Qiuhua nodded slightly, then looked at Tuoba Yan, sighed, and said, ”Yan’er, our master-disciple relationship ends here. I hope that once you reach the East Spirit Immortal Pond, you’ll diligently practice the martial techniques I taught you, so our time as master and disciple won’t be in vain.”

”Yes, Master.”

Tuoba Yan bowed deeply to Mo Qiuhua, realizing this bow marked the end of their master-disciple relationship.

”Ah...”

Mo Qiuhua slowly turned away, swept his sleeve, and solemnly said, ”Go!”

Tuoba Yan took one last deep look at Mo Qiuhua’s back. Though she had been at Moxue Mountain Villa for less than a month, she felt Mo Qiuhua was truly kind to her, like a teacher, like a mother.

Mo Qingfeng shook his head and laughed, stepping forward to say, ”Master Ling, I’m taking Sanqing to participate in the assessment. Since we’re going in the same direction, let’s go together.”

”Alright.” Ling Feng nodded, having no objections.

However, Mo Sanqing snorted lightly but dared not defy Mo Qingfeng’s wishes, only daring to grumble inwardly without daring to utter a sound.

His talent, although present, with such a mindset, might not lead to great achievements in the future.

The group departed immediately. The location for the Five Spirit Hall’s public assessment was in a large square in the center of Iron Ice City, and those who passed and obtained the qualification tokens could head to Demon Sky Snow Ridge for the final test.

Those who passed the Demon Sky Snow Ridge test would become formal disciples of the East Spirit Immortal Pond.

Of course, the vast majority would be Outer Sect Disciples, and among them, a small fraction of the most excellent and top-tier would be Inner Sect Disciples or even Direct Disciples.

Before long, the group arrived at the Central Square, now densely packed with people, a sea of heads. There were those who came to participate in the assessment, elders and friends of the participants, and, of course, many more spectators just there for the spectacle.

Ling Feng and his group struggled to squeeze into a pavilion, preparing to rest a bit while waiting for the assessment to begin.

At that moment, a rather grating voice rang out, causing Mo Qingfeng to frown slightly.

”Oh, isn’t this the once-famous Moxue Mountain Villa? Unfortunately, it’s fallen into decline over the past five hundred years!”

The group turned to look, and saw an elderly man dressed in a ragged purple robe, with a gaunt figure, smirking mockingly at Mo Qingfeng as he stood at the steps below the pavilion.

Mo Qingfeng’s eyes flashed coldly, retorting, ”Turns out you’re from a family that once depended on Moxue Mountain Villa. What’s wrong, grown bold and turning master upside down?”

The purple-robed elder did not get angry, instead smiling superficially, saying, ”Moxue Mountain Villa, reduced to this, only indulging in past glories, unable to face reality. How pitiful!”

”Is that so?”

Mo Qingfeng’s sword in its sheath began to hum, as he coldly said, ”If you think Moxue Mountain Villa is in decline, you may come and test it!”

With those words, Mo Qingfeng’s Sword Intent surged forth, Great Perfection Level Void Spiritual Sword Intent swept out, a fierce pressure like a gust of wind caused surrounding martial artists to change colors.

”You actually broke through! How could this be?”

The purple-robed elder’s eyelids jumped wildly. Before Mo Qingfeng’s Sword Intent breakthrough, their battles were evenly matched, but now, Mo Qingfeng’s breakthrough to Great Perfection Sword Intent might mean defeating him in a single strike.

However, he couldn’t comprehend how Mo Qingfeng’s Sword Dao Accomplishment had suddenly skyrocketed. It’s known that moving from Sword Intent Mini-Perfection to Sword Intent Great Perfection, though just one level apart, has caused countless stunning Sword Dao geniuses to fail.

”If you don’t believe it, you can try!”

Mo Qingfeng’s sword remained sheathed but already revealed its sharpness. The purple-robed elder clenched his fist, coldly saying, ”So what if you’ve achieved Great Success in Sword Dao? What does it have to do with Moxue Mountain Villa, which isn’t the orthodox lineage of Moxue Mountain Villa? What are you proud of?”

Mo Qingfeng was left speechless; his Sword Dao purely honed by himself, indeed had no relation to Moxue Mountain Villa’s lineage.

”Hahaha!”

Just then, Ling Feng burst into laughter, saying, ”You old fool, your brain must have been kicked by a donkey. Senior Qinfeng is from the villa, his lineage may not be passed down from him, but it can bless future generations and shelter descendants. Unlike some who rely only on ancestral shade without seeking improvement, surpassing them by hundreds of times! It’s ridiculous how some may not see this as shameful but as proud instead, truly sad.”

”You! You! ——”

Ling Feng’s words instantly caused the purple-robed elder to flush with anger and embarrassment, fuming inside yet unable to find any words to retort, only ”You you you” for a while, unable to utter a sound.
