Immortality and cultivation begin with full comprehension.

Chapter 11 Miscellaneous Disciple
The old Taoist told Yu Yunyi to wait aside, and then stood in front of the stone platform to test the magic mirror, wanting to see if there would be any more surprises.

"Next!"

The disciple in charge of the testing, seeing the important figure standing to the side, dared not be careless and shouted with great spirit.

This scene was completely different from his previous impatient expression.

"Tch... This kid is just playing favorites. When important people come, he puts on a more serious act than anyone else."

Li Yunjing stepped forward and pressed his forehead against the stone mirror. A cool sensation traveled from his forehead to his brain, which felt quite comfortable.

In the next instant, five-colored light shone brightly, but it was much smaller than Yunyi's light, only six inches in size.

Compared to Yu Yunyi's dazzling brilliance, Li Yunjing's radiance was far more beautiful.

The five colors—blue, yellow, red, black, and white—are dazzlingly brilliant, and all are of uniform length.

"Five Elements Spiritual Roots?"

Before the disciple could speak, the old Taoist priest was slightly taken aback and exclaimed in surprise.

"Senior! Isn't this amazing? Am I qualified to be an inner disciple?"

Li Yunjing felt a little flustered, but he asked the important figure with a grin.

Indeed, the brilliance of his spiritual root was only one-third less than that of Yu Yunyi.

This left Li Yunjing feeling uncertain, as he didn't know whether his spiritual root was good or bad.

Seeing that Li Yunjing was so bold as to ask him this question, the old Taoist was slightly taken aback and somewhat surprised.

After sizing up Li Yunjing, the old Taoist priest teased, "What do you think of your aptitude?"

"It should be pretty good, right? Look how thick and balanced the spiritual root is! Wouldn't it be very powerful to cultivate with it?"

Li Yunjing had not systematically studied the basics of cultivation. On the way, Yu Yunyi only gave him a general overview, so how could he know whether he was in good or bad condition?

Right now, Li Yunjing's heart was pounding, and all he wanted to know was what was going on with him.

I absolutely can't be eliminated...

"Um……"

The old Taoist priest seemed to be teasing Li Yunjing, drawing out a long syllable before stopping.

This infuriated Li Yunjing, but the old Taoist priest looked quite imposing and must be a very powerful person from the "Shenxiao Dao Sect". How could he dare to lose his temper with such a person?

After a long while, seeing that Li Yunjing was somewhat uneasy, the old Taoist said, "Mid-grade Five Elements Spiritual Root, average aptitude, low cultivation, go to the 'Miscellaneous Items Hall' as a menial disciple! We'll talk again when you advance to the sixth level of Qi Refining!"

"Hahahaha!"

In another team, Fu Chao burst into laughter, exaggeratedly clutching his stomach and bending over, as if it were an extremely funny thing.

Laughter could be faintly heard from the other teams, but these people tried to control themselves and only laughed in low voices because of the important figures in front of them.

No one dared to laugh as arrogantly as Fu Chao.

At this moment, after hearing the old Taoist's evaluation, Li Yunjing no longer cared about others' ridicule of him.

"what?"

At this moment, Li Yunjing was somewhat dazed. Everything went black before his eyes. A menial disciple?

What a sad story!

Although he didn't know what the menial disciples of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" did, in the secular world, menial disciples were no different from slaves!
Isn't this just turning yourself into a slave?
Li Yunjing felt a surge of anger and was about to explode, but after thinking about it, he calmed down.

So many people were eliminated before, not even qualified to be a menial worker.

Some of them were dressed in fine clothes, adorned with gold and jade, and seemed to have a distinguished background.

If people like that are eliminated, what can I do?
Should we give up this opportunity?
No!

I have just found the path to immortality and seen a glimmer of hope for my rise in life. I cannot give up!
We cannot back down!
Even if the handyman disciple is not good, he is still in the immortal sect. He is still better than the one who wandered the world and knew nothing about the immortal path.

"Yes! This disciple will be a menial disciple!" Having understood his situation, Li Yunjing calmed down, his expression indifferent.

They possessed a detached and otherworldly demeanor, unaffected by external gains or losses.

"Ok!"

The old Taoist nodded, then fell silent and stopped looking at Li Yunjing.

The Five Elements Spiritual Roots are not useless spiritual roots.

In other smaller factions, those with the Five Elements Spiritual Root were practically doomed, because these factions lacked the resources to support cultivators with such aptitude.

The energy consumption of a cultivator with five elemental roots is more than five times that of an ordinary cultivator with elemental roots!
However, this is not a problem for the "Shenxiao Dao Sect".

They can afford it!
Within the sect, there are also great masters with the five elements of spiritual roots!
Li Yunjing's problem wasn't the lack of the five elements' spiritual roots, but rather that the quality of his five elemental roots (metal, wood, water, fire, and earth) was too low.

For someone like that, reaching the Foundation Establishment Realm is probably already the limit.

Foundation Establishment cultivators are all important figures in the outside world.

However, in the "Divine Firmament Dao Sect", the Foundation Establishment Realm is far from sufficient.

At this level, one more or one less would not make a difference.

Anyone who cannot advance to the Golden Core Realm is a piece of trash.

Li Yunjing's aptitude is quite ordinary; he can forget about becoming a Golden Core Ancestor.

The sect's big shot was able to advance to the peak of the Golden Core stage; he was a top-grade talent among the Five Elements spiritual roots!
Therefore, the elder gave Li Yunjing the status of a menial disciple, without any special treatment.

When Li Yunjing, through hard work, one day reaches the sixth level of the Qi Refining Realm, he can apply to the sect for promotion to an outer disciple.

As for Li Yunjing's future development, that depends on himself.

The sect will treat Li Yunjing fairly and justly, without withholding anything or giving him any special treatment.

Yu Yunyi, standing to the side, frowned slightly. Had she mistaken him for someone else?
Li Yunjing is not someone worth winning over.

Yu Yunyi remained calm, her emotions unreadable.

No one could tell what she was thinking.

Meanwhile, it was Fu Chao's turn to be tested in the other team.

The young man laughed heartily, turned to look at Li Yunjing's group, and said with a smile, "Kid, take a look at what kind of talent I have!"

"That's incredibly arrogant! I really want to find a chance to beat him up!"

Li Yunjing frowned slightly. This young master is really damn annoying!

Not to mention him, even the old Taoist priest standing to the side glared at Fu Chao with displeasure.

However, considering Fu Chao's background, the old Taoist priest could only pretend he hadn't seen it.

It would be unwise to make enemies with the Fu family over such a trivial matter.

This has nothing to do with who is stronger or weaker!
"Elder! Fu Chao has a top-grade fire spirit root!"

A crimson light shone brightly, and the disciple in charge of the test said in a trembling voice.

Unexpectedly, among the hundreds of new recruits this time, a second person with an exceptional spiritual root has emerged.

Such a grand occasion would delight even the "Shenxiao Dao Sect".

"Hmm! Not bad, that Fu kid!"

The old Taoist priest gave a casual reply.

He had a bad impression of Chao and didn't want to say another word to such an arrogant and domineering kid.
