I am Master Maoshan

Chapter 1834 The test begins

"cough cough"

With the arrival of Liu Jun and the other two, the atmosphere of the Alchemy Selection Conference reached its climax. The elder in charge of presiding over the Alchemy Selection Conference coughed twice, which was a signal to begin the introductions.

"My fellow disciples and external guests, let me introduce them to you." The elder's voice echoed in the air. Although his voice was not loud, it was clearly heard in every corner. His eyes rested on the first old man, "This is our Dan Sect's Grand Elder Wu Ning." There was a hint of respect in his voice, which was respect for Grand Elder Wu Ning.

Then, his eyes fell on the second old man, "This is the Great Elder Canghai." As soon as the name of the Great Elder Canghai came out, there was a burst of exclamations. The name of the Great Elder Canghai was well-known throughout the fairy world.

Then, his eyes fell on the third person, and his voice paused, as if deliberately emphasizing the identity of this old man. "And this is the Grand Elder Jinqianzi." As his words fell, there was an uproar at the scene. Although all major forces knew that those who could stand with the two Grand Elders were most likely Grand Elders, they were still shocked when Danzong personally acknowledged it.

Because, among the medium-sized forces, there is not a single Half-Step Divine King Realm expert, and among the large forces in the God Realm, there are only one or two Half-Step Divine King Realm experts. And Danzong actually has three! They were all secretly surprised in their hearts, because they preconceived that the Grand Elder was a Half-Step Divine King Realm expert.

However, they did not know that Liu Jun still had a long way to go to reach this realm. Even though he had fought with Klausdin of the Dwarven God Clan and both of them were injured, it did not mean that he had the strength of a half-step God King. His strength was still to be discussed.

"Hello everyone, I'm Jin Qianzi from the Dan Sect. I'm a handsome guy, and I can make pills, formations, and weapons. I also have a good personality. I'm still unmarried. Any single beauties, please look at me," Liu Jun introduced himself with a grin.

Everyone present looked at each other in bewilderment, obviously not expecting the Dan Sect's Grand Elder to start the conversation this way. Putting aside Liu Jun's appearance and personality, his words "single, let the beauties look at him" really made people think about it.

Generally speaking, the supreme elders are the masters of the cultivation world. They are serious and dignified, and do not easily reveal their personal emotions, let alone be so blunt in public.

The leader of the Shanhai Sect frowned and couldn't help but question in a low voice: "Is this Grand Elder of the Dan Sect really a real Grand Elder?" His question resonated with the others present. They were all old veterans who had lived in the world for many years, but the behavior of this Grand Elder Liu Jun was really unbelievable.

The leader of the Wuyun Sect was also shocked. He agreed, "I think so. After all, they are sitting together with the two supreme elders Canghai Wuning." Although he said this, the doubt in his tone was obvious.

The bigwigs from other forces also looked at Liu Jun with suspicion, secretly speculating in their hearts that this supreme elder did not seem to be a troublesome person.

Just when everyone fell into awkward silence, the elder in charge saved the situation in time.

The presiding elder cleared his throat and announced loudly: "Well, the time has come. I declare that the Dan Selection Conference officially begins."

The presiding elder's voice broke the awkwardness and brought everyone back to their senses, shifting their attention to the upcoming Dan Selection Conference. They watched the elders' every move with nervous anticipation.

"Come, be the first one to step forward, put your hand on the crystal, close your eyes, and carefully sense the changes in it." The elder who maintained order began to call on the contestants in the front row to come forward.

Among the six people in the first row, only one person's crystal was slightly brighter, but it soon returned to normal. This showed that among the six people, only one had a little talent, while the other five were not, and had no affinity for any kind of spiritual energy. They retreated sadly, their hearts filled with loss and helplessness.

Then, the contestants in the second, third, and fourth rows came forward one after another. Everyone came forward with hope, but the result disappointed them. Only a very few people had the crystals in front of them emit a faint light, showing that they had a certain affinity with the aura.

The entire conference hall was filled with a heavy atmosphere, which made people feel depressed. However, this was also the true face of the Dan Selection Conference. Only those who were truly talented could embark on the path of cultivation.

The presiding elder looked at the failed contestants and couldn't help but feel sorry for them. He knew that this was a heavy blow to these people.

But there is no way, these are talents destined by God. Some people need to work hard all their lives to reach Rome, while others are born in Rome.

"Failure is not terrible. What is terrible is losing courage and confidence." The presiding elder said silently in his heart, looking at the failed contestants with a firm gaze, "As long as you don't give up, one day you can become a true practitioner."

Like him, he just had no talent. He practiced hard in the later period, and was then noticed by an elder of the older generation of Danzong. He was recruited into Danzong and finally became an elder.

The whole scene seemed a little quiet, with only the sound of crystals falling to the ground and the breathing of the contestants. Everyone couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. They were looking forward to the emergence of a gifted young man, but found that most people could not make the spiritual energy in the crystal produce a big reaction.

However, just as everyone was in despair, the last person in the fifth row stepped forward, held the crystal, and closed his eyes. Suddenly, the crystal emitted a strong white light, which was not dazzling, but it was definitely a genius.

Everyone opened their eyes wide in surprise, looked at the young man, and discussed in low voices.

The other contestants had envy and jealousy on their faces.

The presiding elder walked off the stage and came in front of the young man. He looked at the light emanating from the crystal, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He knew that this young man's talent was enough to enter the inner gate.

"What's your name?" the presiding elder asked. The young man opened his eyes, looked at the presiding elder, and replied, "My name is Mu Shaohua, from the Mu family in Dancheng."

"The Mu family from Dancheng? Great. Danzong welcomes you. Please go over there and wait for a moment." The presiding elder's attitude became noticeably friendlier.

For Danzong, Dancheng is the base camp of Danzong. The geniuses who come out of the base camp are no different from those from their own families. With such talent, they will definitely become inner disciples.

"Okay." Mu Shaohua smiled slightly and walked towards the location pointed by the presiding elder. His road to conquest was about to begin.

The appearance of Mu Shaohua suddenly froze the atmosphere of the entire Dan Selection Conference. Everyone's eyes were focused on him, as if they were attracted by his temperament. Then, they quickly returned to normal and continued the spiritual energy test.

Although some of the next testers had their spiritual energy make the test crystal glow, none of them were as dazzling as Mu Shaohua's. Although the big guys on the platform were beginning to feel a little sleepy, they still focused on observing each tester.

On the side, Liu Jun kept cracking melon seeds, making crisp sounds. Although this action was a bit indecent, his face gave people a relaxed and happy feeling.

The Grand Elder Wu Ning frowned in dissatisfaction and said to Liu Jun, "Hey kid, we are selecting the chief here, so many people are watching you, can you pay attention to your image?"

Liu Jun agreed, then took out some of the melon seeds from his pocket and gave some to Grand Elder Wuning, and gave some to Grand Elder Canghai.

The Supreme Elder Wuning took the melon seeds and tried to imitate Liu Jun and started eating them.

Unexpectedly, after just one bite, Grand Elder Wu Ning's eyes lit up. He said in surprise: "Oh? This little thing has a very unique taste."

Then, Supreme Elder Wuning began to eat with relish, as if he had forgotten the noise around him and was only focused on the melon seeds in his hand.

The corner of Grand Elder Canghai's mouth twitched. He looked at the two unruly guys speechlessly, then picked up the melon seeds and started eating them.

"By the way, there's also milk tea." Liu Jun took out a few cups of milk tea and shared them.

Liu Jun's movements were relaxed and natural, as if he was just sharing casually in his daily life. His casualness made people smile knowingly. The two respected elders, Wu Ning and Cang Hai, were usually serious and unkind, but under the temptation of delicious melon seeds, they did not refuse and took the milk tea and tasted it gently. Their intoxicated look made people wonder if they also had a desire and cherishment for a better life in their hearts.

Just like that, under the sunshine, a ridiculous scene appeared at the chief position on the high platform: two old guys who had lived for tens of thousands of years, their usual seriousness and solemnity were gone, replaced by a look of comfort, enjoying the taste of milk tea and melon seeds like two children, their leisurely and contented look, as if the whole world had become peaceful and beautiful.

Not far from them, the clan leader Jiang Yueyang, as well as the deputy clan leader Yue Niuqun and others could only watch helplessly. Their hearts were filled with complex emotions, both envy and helplessness, and perhaps a hint of hidden jealousy.

"You don't care enough about your image. You don't care enough about your image," complained Deputy Sect Leader Yue Niuqun with gritted teeth.

Jiang Yueyang looked at Yue Niuqun with a hint of teasing in his eyes, and said lightly: "How about you go up and persuade the three supreme elders?"

Yue Niuqun's face froze, but he didn't say anything. These three were all supreme elders. In terms of status, let alone him, even Jiang Yueyang had to be polite to them.

But when Jiang Yueyang glanced at him provocatively again, Yue Niuqun seemed to be aroused and said with great enthusiasm: "Let's go!" Before he finished speaking, he stood up and stepped onto the stairs leading to the chief position.

"Deputy Sect Leader Yue, what are you doing here?" The Supreme Elder Canghai frowned slightly as he looked at the familiar figure in front of him.

"Grand Elder, I'm here to remind you that we need to pay attention to the image of our Dan Sect," Yue Niuqun took a deep breath and said through gritted teeth.

"Don't force me to beat you in front of so many people, get out of here!" When Wu Ning Taishang Elder heard this, he thought, isn't this just not letting him drink good drinks and eat good food? How could he tolerate this?

Yue Niuqun's face fell instantly. He briefly analyzed the character of Grand Elder Wuning and felt a bitter taste in his mouth. He felt that if he stayed any longer, he might really get beaten.

After being beaten up in front of so many people, how can he live his life in the future?

The key point is that even if he was beaten, he would not be angry. After all, the Supreme Elder Wuning was many times older than him. To put it bluntly, even if his grandfather came, he would have to call the Supreme Elder Wuning the ancestor.

"Don't be angry, I'm leaving now." Yue Niuqun said goodbye and left immediately. His dusty appearance made Liu Jun want to laugh.
