The liquids in the transparent pillars behind the five people continued to rise. When one of them climbed to the top of the pillar and covered the entire pillar, it stopped.
Only the pillar behind Yu Qing Qian had three colours climbing up together, and it actually eventually covered the entire pillar at the same time. The green, black, and cyan colours were very deep and in a very uniform state.
The white-haired elderly man was stunned when he saw this, “How could this happen?”
Spiritual plant talent, physical fitness talent, and mental energy talent may indeed be improved in the latter stages due to some kind of fortuitous opportunity, but it was impossible to directly improve it to excellent or improve it that much at the same time.
“Yu Qing Qian should’ve used some means to suppress her talent in the physical fitness and mental energy talent test at the Southern Royal Academy.” Hong Gu Zi chuckled and said.
The white-haired elderly man had an epiphany, but he was still a little puzzled, “It stands to reason that some pupils would like their talents to be as high as possible during the test, why would she instead suppress her talents?”
Most importantly was how old was Yu Qing Qian at the time—thirteen years old was the age when people liked to show off.
“I think this girl is reserved and calm, she may have deliberately supressed her talent as a way to protect herself.” The red-haired elderly man said with a smile: “But what does it matter? Now this good seedling has been admitted to our Holy Academy.”
Hong Gu Zi also revealed a cheerful smile: “HAHA, if those old fellows from the Imperial Academy knew that our Holy Academy has another pupil with three excellent talents, they’d definitely gag to death.”
Yu Qing Qian had concealed her talent before, which was the correct choice in Hong Gu Zi’s opinion. ‘An outstanding tree in the forest, would surely be destroyed by the wind1’. At the time, Yu Qing Qian had just begun cultivating at the Royal Academy and didn’t have much ability to protect herself. If she was attacked by big clans and forces, the Royal Academy wouldn’t have the ability to protect her either.
Now that she had arrived at the Holy Academy, firstly, the talent-testing ball blocked everyone from cheating, and secondly, Yu Qing Qian should also feel that her talent could be exposed.
The Holy Academy wasn’t something the Royal Academy could compare to. The safety of the pupils were absolutely guaranteed, and they weren’t afraid of any clan or force on the continent, because the Holy Academy stood at the top of the Central Continent.
“In fact, Feng Chen and Chi Mo Ran also hid their talents in the Southern Royal Academy back then. It was only in our Holy Academy that they revealed their three excellent talents. This shows that they’re all very smart.”
The red-haired elderly man laughed and continued: “The Imperial Academy only has one pupil with three excellent talents, while our Holy Academy now has three. Those old fellows will definitely be angry for a while.”
The white-haired elderly man was instantly relieved. If Yu Qing Qian hadn’t hidden her talent before, then the Imperial Academy would definitely pay high attention to her. The Imperial Academy was best at using intrigues and tricks, Yu Qing Qian might not have even been able to come to their Holy Academy, or perhaps she would’ve died young.
Although they were expectant, but Yu Qing Qian’s three talents at excellent still shocked the three of them.
The other thirty-six people present were also exceptionally shocked. No one expected that Yu Qing Qian would have three excellent talents—what a monster!
Yu Qing Qian had never tested her physical fitness and mental energy talent, but she had confidence. This time she decided to take the genius route and overcome obstacles along the way.
“Your talents have been tested and we have recorded them. There will be dedicated personnel to arrange your subsequent cultivation.” After speaking to everyone, Hong Gu Zi glanced at Zhai Yuan.
Zhai Yuan understood and took the thirty-seven people out of the hall with a smile, leading them to receive their identity badges, clothing, and other items.
“HAHA, this old one must report to the Headmaster and the Chief Elders in person.” Hong Gu Zi laughed, then disappeared in the large hall.
1木秀于林 风必摧之basically means someone who stands out or is talented will definitely gather jealousy from others and harm may even come to them due to it.
