Chapter 148: Chapter 148 Impossible!The order of the investigation was arranged based on the time they became core students. The first students to be tested were all nearly thirty years old, and their cultivation levels were generally at the Primordial Pill Realm. These students, who were basically capable of slaying cultivators at the Primordial Pill Realm, were naturally retained as key figures for further investigation. Soon, it was the turn of those talents who had become core students because they possessed a Spiritual Body. "Qin Wan Er, Spirit Sea Realm Eightfold Late Stage, possesses the Super Spiritual Body, Wind Spirit Body!" Elder Bai called out. "You, stay back for further investigation!" A Ghost King Guard spoke directly. The Wind Spirit Body at the eightfold of the Spirit Sea Realm, with Spiritual Power also reaching the level of the Primordial Pill Realm, might also have the potential to slay cultivators of the Primordial Pill Realm. Upon this, the Zhenwu Prefecture Palace Master did not comment further. This Ghost King Guard was personally assigned by the King to investigate this matter. The Ghost Guards were divided into three levels: the ordinary Ghost Guard, the Ghost King Guard, and the Ghost Divine Guard. Most Ghost Guards are cultivators at or below the late stages of the Primordial Pill Realm. The Ghost King Guard, generally, are cultivators around the seventh or eighth levels of the Primordial Pill Realm. Ghost Divine Guards, even more so, are powerhouse cultivators at the ninth level of the Primordial Pill Realm! "Yes." Qin Wan Er responded and stood together with the Primordial Pill Realm students. "Ye Xun, Dual Spirit Bodies of Gold and Earth, Spirit Sea Realm Eightfold Middle Stage, stay back for further investigation!" "Yu Huai, Spirit Sea Realm Eightfold Middle Stage, possesses the Super Spiritual Body, Ice Spirit Body, stay back for further investigation!" "Gu Lin, Wood Spirit Body, Spirit Sea Realm Sevenfold Late Stage, but possesses a Divine Thought Master’s talent, stay temporarily." "Bai Wangchuan, Super Spiritual Body, Yin Fire Spirit Body, Spirit Sea Realm Eightfold Middle Stage, stay back." These talented individuals from the prominent six clans were all retained for further investigation. ... The testing continued. However, most of those tested next were possessors of Spiritual Bodies, with their cultivation levels around the fifth, sixth, or seventh folds of the Spirit Sea Realm, utterly incapable of slaying a Primordial Pill Realm powerhouse, thus, were directly released. "Ling Chen!" Elder Bai glanced at the last name on the list. Hearing this, Ling Chen stepped forward. Even among all these talents, Ling Chen was the youngest. Ling Wu, possessing the Ice and Fire Saint Body, was hidden by the Palace Master and Deputy Palace Master, not letting her be exposed to the testing. With so many people, missing just one, neither the Palace Master nor the Ghost King Guard would notice. Sёarch* The Nôvelƒire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Moreover, Ling Wu was in secluded cultivation within the Palace Master Mansion and would not show herself. Both the Palace Master of Zhenwu Prefecture and the Ghost King Guard were instantly impressed. Such a young awakening of the Spiritual Body, his future prospects are boundless indeed! "Spirit Sea Realm Sevenfold Early Stage!" The testing elder announced loudly. "What?" "Spirit Sea Realm Sevenfold Early Stage?" "Holy shit, is he even human?" "This guy, hasn’t he been in the Academic Palace for less than half a year, and he jumped from the second fold to the seventh fold of the Spirit Sea Realm?" "Does this guy really lack cultivation talent? Impossible, right?" ... The core students immediately started discussing loudly. Even the Palace Master, Deputy Palace Master, the Divine Thought Hall Master, and other high-ranking officials of the Academic Palace were utterly dumbfounded. "Spirit Sea Realm Sevenfold?" "This young man’s Cultivation Speed is comparable to the Crown Prince!" Light flickered in the eyes of the Ghost King Guard. The Crown Prince possesses a Sacred Body; does he also possess a Sacred Body? "Has my Zhenwu Prefecture actually produced such an unparalleled genius?" The Palace Master exclaimed joyfully. "Very good, very good!" The Palace Master was endlessly pleased, nodding and smiling warmly at Ling Chen. "Test his talent." The Palace Master spoke. Seeing the expressions of the Palace Master and the Ghost King Guard, he felt a sense of déjà vu. Not long ago, he had displayed the same expressions. However, when he found out about Ling Chen’s talent, he was speechless. It seems that scene is about to be replayed again! Ling Chen stepped forward and pressed his palm on the Talent Testing Stele. At this moment, the Palace Master and Ghost King Guard stared unblinkingly at the Talent Testing Stele. The Palace Masters and senior members of the Academic Palace, along with the core students, did the same. They have only heard about it but had never actually seen Ling Chen’s talent being tested. One breath. Two breaths. Three breaths. Soon, ten breaths had passed. There was no movement from the Talent Testing Stele at all. "What’s going on?" The Palace Master and the Ghost King Guard exchanged glances, their eyes filled with confusion. "Ling Chen has no cultivation talent." Elder Bai spoke up. Having witnessed it himself, he was naturally aware of Ling Chen’s true talent. "Could your Talent Testing Stele be broken?" The Palace Master asked. Such a young genius, with a cultivation level reaching the seventh level of the Spirit Sea Realm, and not having any talent? He wouldn’t believe it even if it killed him! The Ghost King Guard also nodded, agreeing with the Palace Master. Elder Bai gave a wry smile, placed his hand on the Talent Testing Stele, and instantly, a brilliant light burst forth. "It’s not broken." Elder Bai withdrew his hand and explained. The Palace Master and the Ghost King Guard were dumbfounded. "Then how did he cultivate?" After a while, the Palace Master finally asked. This scene was incredibly unbelievable. "I have been enhancing my cultivation by consuming Elixirs!" Ling Chen explained with a smile. Even in the face of high-level cultivators of the Primordial Pill Realm, his demeanor was calm and unhurried. "Yes." Sensing the gaze from both the Palace Master and the Ghost Guard, the Palace Master expressed his sympathy. Previously, his expression seemed to be no less baffled than the other two. After a long pause, the Ghost King Guard finally nodded and said, "You may leave now." As the words fell, a voice entered Ling Chen’s ear: "Come find me tonight, maybe I can offer you an opportunity to cultivate." Being part of the Ghost Guard, he naturally knew about the creation of Spiritual Bodies. With Ling Chen’s rapid cultivation speed, if he possessed a Spiritual Body, his cultivation might advance even more rapidly, and it might not be impossible for him to become a Ghost Divine Guard in the future! "Alright!" Ling Chen nodded towards the Ghost King Guard. His response indicated that he agreed to meet the Ghost King Guard tonight. "Mm." The Ghost King Guard nodded slightly, then instructed, "Is that all, then? Continue the investigation of the suspicious students!" "Wait!" Gu Lin, seeing that Ling Chen was let go and himself being detained as a Divine Thought Master, naturally felt aggrieved. "What is it?" The Ghost King Guard stared at Gu Lin. Being under the direct gaze of a high-level Primordial Pill Realm cultivator, Gu Lin felt a great pressure. He swallowed and said, "Ling Chen is also a Divine Thought Master!" The Palace Masters and other senior members were eager to kill this guy. Do you fucking have any sense? The whole Academy is being troubled enough, and they’ve just let Ling Chen go, yet you still volunteer to expose him? Are you really a True Martial Academy student? "Is that so?" The Ghost King Guard looked at Ling Chen. "Yes." Ling Chen nodded in acknowledgment. Thinking he had avoided the investigation, he never expected Gu Lin to trip him up at this moment. He gave Gu Lin a cold glance before averting his gaze. It seems he had been too lenient. Back at Wan Er’s birthday feast, when Gu Lin attacked him, he only cut off a lock of his hair. Now, did he want to put him to death? At that moment, Divine Thought Hall Master Gu Qingyang stepped forward a few steps, bowed slightly to the Ghost King Guard and the Palace Master, and declared with utmost conviction, "Absolutely impossible! Ling Chen is definitely not a killer from the night! I can swear to heaven!" Upon hearing his elder defending Ling Chen like this, Gu Lin was almost furious. Both he and Gu Qingyang were from the Gu family, why wouldn’t Gu Qingyang defend him, but instead protect Ling Chen like this?
