Chaos erupted on the scene!
Countless people were shaken to the verge of madness!
A Heaven-grade Top-tier Spiritual Vein!
Even across the entire continent, geniuses of this caliber belonged to the absolute pinnacle!
Yet one had actually appeared right here in their humble Tianxuan Country!
Everyone felt as though they were dreaming!
Many even suspected that the spirit testing stele must be malfunctioning!
The six Heavenly Sun Realm powerhouses completely forgot about the identity of the woman in white as they rapidly swarmed forward.
Their burning gazes grew almost red, fixing upon Ye Wushuang as if they were looking at a rare, priceless treasure!
No one could maintain their composure!
"Change the stele and test him again!"
Someone urged.
Ye Wushuang was still standing there in a daze.
He was utterly shocked as well!
Back in Dongyang City, he had tested his veins twice, and both times they were merely Earth-grade Lower-tier Spirit Veins!
How had it transformed into a Heaven-grade Top-tier Spiritual Vein the moment he arrived in the Royal Capital?
"I understand!"
Someone suddenly shouted out. Everyone quickly looked over and saw that it was Ye Nantian.
Countless burning, bewildered gazes landed on Ye Nantian.
The pressure on Ye Nantian multiplied instantly, but he forced himself to remain calm, explaining with a somewhat awkward expression:
"The artisan with the highest forging skill in Dongyang City is only a three-star master."
"So the spirit testing steles in Dongyang City must all be defective, capable of measuring up to an Earth-grade Lower-tier Spirit Vein at best..."
"I knew about this before, but in the past, it was already extremely difficult for Dongyang City to produce even a Profound-grade Lower-tier spirit vein talent."
"Such defective testing steles were quite sufficient for our needs, so the matter gradually faded from memory..."
So that was it!
A sudden realization dawned on everyone.
The spirit testing stele was also a spiritual artifact, though not of a very high grade, belonging to the Profound-grade Lower-tier.
An artifact of this level required a four-star master artisan to forge.
Yet this low grade was only relative; in a small city like Dongyang City, where on earth could one find a four-star master artisan?
People moved to higher places!
All the powerful figures came to the Royal Capital to seek their fortunes!
If not for the specialized nature of the testing stele, that three-star artisan in Dongyang City probably wouldn't even have been able to forge such a defective product!
Ye Wushuang also untied a knot in his heart.
No wonder during his previous two vein tests, he always had the feeling that his full strength wasn't being released!
However, one of the Heavenly Sun Realm powerhouses had already retrieved a brand-new testing stele, wanting Ye Wushuang to test himself once more.
Yet that person halted his actions in the very next second.
Because the woman in white moved.
She approached Ye Wushuang, leaned slightly, and took his wrist in her hand.
Ye Wushuang caught a hint of surprise in her eyes, but amazement was quickly overshadowed by sheer bewilderment.
This was definitely a supreme figure!
Heavenly Sun Realm experts bowed to her with utmost respect!
Yet in the face of a Heaven-grade Top-tier Spiritual Vein, she remained as calm as still water!
With his wrist held, a warm, jade-like sensation washed over him.
Ye Wushuang offered no resistance as a gentle surge of spiritual energy flowed through his palm and into his body, roaming everywhere.
Ye Wushuang gazed at the exquisite face of the woman in white. Being so close, a few strands of her hair brushed past his eyes, carrying a faint, refreshing fragrance.
Then, he watched as the confusion in the eyes of the woman in white gradually dissipated, quickly replaced by utter shock.
Paired with her cold, immortal-like demeanor, this created quite a stark contrast.
What had she detected inside his body?
Ye Wushuang was filled with questions, but he kept silent.
The crowd stared blankly at this scene, the six Heavenly Sun Realm powerhouses hovering nearby with words stuck in their throats.
Surely this senior wasn't going to snatch their prospective disciple away, right?
Fortunately, what happened next did not disappoint them.
"You..."
The woman in white spoke softly before pausing, as if she wanted to say something yet didn't quite know how to express it, until she finally blurted out on an impulse:
"Would you be willing to take me as your master?"
"No!"
"How can Senior do this?"
Among the nearby Heavenly Sun Realm experts, someone immediately couldn't help but cry out.
The woman in white maintained a calm expression as she glanced at him:
"Can you protect a genius with a Heaven-grade Top-tier Spiritual Vein?"
That Heavenly Sun Realm powerhouse was instantly struck dumb.
Indeed!
The emergence of a genius possessing a Heaven-grade Top-tier Spiritual Vein was like dropping a deep-sea bomb across the entire continent!
Who knew how many ancient monsters and reclusive masters would be stirred into action by the news!
What was he, a mere Heavenly Sun Realm cultivator, in the grand scheme of things?
If any of those figures harbored malicious intentions, could he protect Ye Wushuang?
They could crush him to death far more easily than an ant!
That Heavenly Sun Realm expert felt a deep sense of unwillingness.
An uncut jade lay right before him, yet he lacked the qualification to possess it—how agonizing was that?
He wanted to retort: *Can you protect him, then?*
But the moment he recalled the terrifying strength she had just displayed, he very prudently chose to shut his mouth.
And when he remembered her surname, his despair became complete.
The woman in white looked back at Ye Wushuang.
Ye Wushuang took a deep breath, stepped back without a moment's hesitation, and bowed respectfully:
"Master!"
A faint smile finally bloomed on the face of the woman in white, making the surrounding scenery seem to brighten in its wake.
"My name is Luo Qingxian!"
That name... truly sounded a bit immortal...
Ye Wushuang nodded.
Luo Qingxian turned her gaze to Ye Nantian:
"Are you an elder of his clan?"
Ye Nantian hurriedly replied:
"I am his grandfather!"
Luo Qingxian nodded slightly and flicked her finger, sending a Spatial Ring flying toward Ye Nantian.
Ye Nantian caught it carefully, his consciousness instinctively probing inside, and his eyes widened instantly into a look of sheer disbelief.
Densely packed spirit stones were piled almost like a small mountain!
Pills and spiritual artifacts lay scattered across the ground in countless numbers!
Amidst his wild ecstasy, Ye Nantian was profoundly shocked.
What magnificent generosity!
Just who on earth was this woman?
To bestow such massive resources as if tossing away pocket change!
Seeing the expression on Ye Nantian's face, the crowd knew this fellow had harvested a fortune.
Not to mention anything else, the Spatial Ring alone was immensely precious, usually possessed only by Heavenly Sun Realm powerhouses.
Yet, though filled with envy and even jealousy, the onlookers ruthlessly suppressed any malicious thoughts lurking in their hearts.
Did they not see how the six Heavenly Sun Realm experts treated this mysterious woman with the utmost reverence?
Who would dare harbor crooked ideas about something she had given away?
They must be tired of living!
"From now on, this child will follow me to cultivate at Tianxuan Academy."
After bestowing the Spatial Ring, Luo Qingxian said indifferently.
Ye Nantian naturally had no objections:
"We obey Senior's every command!"
Ye Nantian's mood today was one wave of wild ecstasy and shock after another!
First, his grandson was verified to possess a Heaven-grade Top-tier Spiritual Vein!
This was a supreme blessing that not even burning down the ancestral temple could guarantee!
It was enough for the Ye Family to throw a banquet and celebrate continuously for three months without stopping!
They would even have to start a brand-new page in the genealogy starting from Ye Wushuang!
And then, Ye Wushuang successfully took a mysterious woman as his master, guaranteeing his safety from this day forward and resolving one of Ye Nantian's greatest anxieties!
What?
You ask why his safety was guaranteed?
Did you not see how this mysterious woman possessed an extraordinary, transcendent aura, completely unlike a mortal?
Even Heavenly Sun Realm experts showed her the utmost reverence!
The resources she casually bestowed were enough to fund the Ye Family's development for decades!
Most importantly, she took him on as a disciple of her own accord, fully aware of Ye Wushuang's innate talent!
Without formidable strength or a profound background, who would dare act with such boldness?!
At this moment, Ye Nantian felt overwhelmingly cheerful, the smile on his face never fading.
Luo Qingxian took Ye Wushuang's hand and walked into Tianxuan Academy.
Leaving behind six Heavenly Sun Realm powerhouses shaking their heads and sighing in disappointment.
Yet this storm would not simply settle here; an even greater tempest was rapidly brewing in the shadows...
