五月丁香五月丁香激情

For the talent test, either one finger would light up, or two... however, no matter how many fingers lit up, they would remain stable and unchanging. But now, it was flickering like a neon light; even the dullest person would know something was wrong.

The only explanation was that it was broken...

Even the most powerful treasures would have issues after long use.

Liu Tianzheng suddenly understood, feeling slightly embarrassed: “So what should we do now?”

Having been poisoned by a few songs, he found himself involuntarily singing when he saw those numbers.

Xu Xin said, “Since it’s broken, the other party’s talent can’t be measured. Let’s go ask someone else. Having such talent is like a firefly in the dark of night—so bright and outstanding, it can\'t be hidden. As long as they are a bit clever, they will definitely notice the flaws.”

“Right!”

Liu Tianzheng suddenly remembered: “Now that you mention it, I think we should go find City Lord Yu Longqing. He must know something!”

This guy had gone to great lengths to have his daughter become Zhang Xuan\'s disciple... At first, he thought it was nothing, but now he saw flaws everywhere.

And the Chen Xiao patriarch... to tame a horse to make it a guest elder, most importantly, he didn’t care if Chen Hao knelt for a day; he even helped pay 300,000 Source Coins. Now it seemed, there was also something off.

But if he had known in advance that he possessed the talent of Destiny, it would all have made sense.

“Let’s go!”

Xu Xin nodded, took off his gloves, and handed the Destiny Disk back, as the two walked away purposefully.

“Are we just leaving like this? Shouldn’t we stay a bit longer? We could absorb the energy from this Destiny Disk before we go!”

Zhang Xuan wanted to shout this out but ultimately chose to remain low-key, too embarrassed to speak.

Earlier, to prevent the other side from suspecting, he had combined hostility with slow movement, making them mistakenly believe the gloves were broken. The effect was achieved, but the absorption speed had clearly slowed down. After all the trouble, only about 3,000 strands of Heaven’s Fate Energy flowed into the Library of Heaven\'s Path, which wasn’t enough to replicate a technique even once.

“Let’s see what flaws they all have; it might be useful later..."

Knowing they both had Destiny Disks and possibly many strands of Destiny Energy, Zhang Xuan\'s mind stirred. He softly called out “Flaws.”

The library shook slightly, and a book formed.

With a gentle motion of his hand, the book landed in his palm, which read “Xu Xin.”

The other party had just used Zihui to probe their talent, so they had used a technique to do so, while Liu Tianzheng had not used any power and thus hadn’t formed a book.

But having this one person was enough; as a Fate Guardian in White Roc City, this guy had absolute authority.

He lightly opened the book.

“Xu Xin, from the imperial capital of the Hanyuan Dynasty, Fate Guardian, congenital impotence…”

“???”

Zhang Xuan was stunned in place.

Congenital...

This guy had something going on!

Perhaps he could help him with treatment and take the opportunity to get some Destiny Disks!

Hmm, this needed planning; after all, helping him heal was also a way to help others, right?

Back at the courtyard, Sun Qiang had finished his assessment and slowly opened his eyes.

“How was it? How much did you absorb?” Zhang Xuan asked.

Sun Qiang replied, “Reporting to Young Master, about a little over 1,000 strands!”

“Enough,” Zhang Xuan nodded.

He didn’t have a Source Pool and used the space he had opened up for him; in a short time, it could hold this much, which was already enough for general cultivation.

After all, a First Grade Source Pool only absorbed 256 strands of Destiny Energy.

“This is Primordial Yellow Energy. I will now help you ignite the furnace, and after that, you can absorb Source Energy and refine it for your own use!”

After Sun Qiang punched once, with the aid of the library and the orderly Destiny, a technique suitable for him was formed. Zhang Xuan then pointed, and a rich Primordial Yellow Energy surged into Sun Qiang’s Source Pool.

Unlike Yu Xiaoyu, Liu Mingyue, and others, he had to disguise his identity and didn’t dare to use too much Primordial Yellow Energy. As for this guy, who he knew well, he had no such concerns.

Once the Primordial Yellow Energy entered his body, it was immediately ignited to form a special furnace. Moments later, a stream of Source Energy was devoured by Sun Qiang and flowed into his body.

Although he didn’t know what grade he had reached, it was certainly far beyond Yu Xiaoyu and the others. The speed at which he absorbed Source Energy, although far inferior to his, was still not weak.

At this moment, Liu Tianzheng and Xu Xin had already arrived at the City Lord’s Mansion.

After some mutual introductions, Yu Longqing looked over curiously: “I wonder... why have Lord Xu and Liu Clan Leader come here at this time?”

He knew the Liu family had some connections with certain rogue Destiny Masters from the Destiny Hall, but without evidence, he couldn’t say much. Now, coming over to inquire was like playing an open card.

“Indeed, we have something to ask!”

Liu Tianzheng did not engage in small talk and spoke directly: “City Lord Yu must be trying desperately to have Yu Xiaoyu become Zhang Xuan’s disciple, right? It can’t be just because you tamed the Cangback Eagle so easily!”

“You know I tamed the Cangback Eagle? Liu Clan Leader is quite well-informed. To tell you the truth, the Cangback Eagle is truly obedient now…”

Yu Longqing smiled broadly.

“City Lord Yu, since Lord Xu has come to find you, he must know something; otherwise, you wouldn’t have come personally!”

Liu Tianzheng was too lazy to beat around the bush: “I guessed correctly; this Zhang Xuan should possess the talent of a Destiny Master, right?”

“You…”

Yu Longqing’s brow furrowed.

This matter had only been speculated by him and Dean Lu; he never expected that this one had already known, and the key part was that he revealed it to the strong ones of the Destiny Hall.

If that were the case, all the efforts to hide over these days would have been for nothing.

Seeing his expression, Liu Tianzheng was shocked while putting on a façade as if he already knew: “I not only know this, but you guessed correctly; that Spirit Source Bamboo of yours has been used already…”

“This…”

Yu Longqing was taken aback.

To guess that Zhang Xuan had the talent of a Destiny Master, he thought was nothing, but to even know that the Spirit Source Bamboo had been used was a bit terrifying.

“Indeed…"

Unlike Yu Longqing’s shock, Liu Tianzheng had already confirmed two things in just a few sentences.

First, that Zhang Xuan indeed had the talent of a Destiny Master; the second was that he had indeed used the Spirit Source Bamboo to help Yu Xiaoyu increase her strength. Thus, in such a short time, her strength had doubled, which meant that Zhang Xuan had not lied.

Whether Teacher Zhang possesses the talent of a Destiny Master, I can only speculate and cannot confirm, but regardless of whether he does, making good connections with him is a good thing for us at the City Lord’s Mansion, considering making Xiaoyu his disciple for that very reason…”

Seeing the other party had almost figured it all out, Yu Longqing didn’t hide anything and explained.

Speculation? What made you think that?” Xu Xin, who had been silent, looked over.

Knowing this guy was related to Destiny Masters, Yu Longqing spoke honestly: “When he was teaching Xiaoyu, he only needed to teach; regardless of whether the student was willing or had any subjective initiative, he could let the Source Energy enter the Source Pool and complete the cycle of power within the body. Therefore, I speculated it must be related to destiny!”

The student didn’t want to learn; as long as he listened to the class, he could cultivate autonomously?” This time, it was Xu Xin’s turn to be shocked.

If one could absorb Destiny Energy just by allowing him to teach, it would have confirmed that the other party indeed had the talent of a Destiny Master!

Destiny is something that, whether you wish to or not, can make you comply.

Destiny cannot be defied!

That is precisely why Destiny Masters are so feared and respected.

“You’re not guessing that because of this, right?” Seeing he was clueless, it was Yu Longqing’s turn to be confused.

“It’s because of some other things…”

Xu Xin didn’t elaborate and instead asked City Lord Yu about the details. The latter saw that he wanted to pry for information, so he started playing dumb. After asking for a long time, he failed to extract any useful information. Xu Xin said no more and left the City Lord’s Mansion with Liu Tianzheng.

Now it was 100% confirmed that not only did he possess the talent of a Destiny Master, but he might even be a true Destiny Master... “Let’s go; I will send a message to Lord Ling right away. We must pull this kind of person into our camp.”

Outside the City Lord’s Mansion, in the carriage, Xu Xin\'s eyes gleamed

.

Wherever there are people, there is a world; the same Destiny Hall is not entirely united. That is why Lord Ling would secretly sell Destiny Disks to the Liu family behind the back of the Destiny Hall, aiming to cultivate his own direct lineage…

This Zhang Xuan, once confirmed to have Destiny, would certainly have a place in the Destiny Hall. If Lord Ling could pull him in first, it was needless to say that he would definitely gain an advantage.

And as the guardian of the other party, he would also benefit greatly.

“A true Destiny Master?”

Hearing the other party confirm, Liu Tianzheng\'s eyes widened.

To have a Destiny Master as a teacher, the future achievements are unimaginable... Speaking of which, isn’t my daughter’s insight much better than mine?

It’s ridiculous that he had been blocking it. If it weren’t for the other party’s insistence, he might have directly ruined such a good opportunity…

It seemed he not only had to appease Mingyue but also ease the relationship...

Liu Tianzheng rubbed his temples.

What was this? If he had known that the other party had such talent, he would have definitely rushed to have his daughter be his disciple... How could it be like this now!

Now both sides were at an impasse, and he didn’t know what to do.

“By the way... doesn’t this guy really like Destiny Energy? If I just send some over to this Zhang Xuan, the previous conflict should be eased..."

A thought came to his mind.

Since the other party was looking for Destiny Energy everywhere, and he happened to have some, why not send it directly to him?

Although each Destiny Disk was very expensive, the benefits of pulling in a Destiny Master for the Liu family would definitely outweigh ten million, even twenty million!

Thinking this through, Liu Tianzheng finally relaxed.

Back at the Liu residence, he didn’t hesitate much. He quickly took the Destiny Disks and hurried to White Rock Academy, while Xu Xin returned to his own residence, driving away a group of naked women before taking out a palm-sized scroll.

It was small, like a painting, but it contained a special charm.

A Destiny Scroll!

Only major Destiny Masters could carve such items, containing the power of destiny, allowing long-distance communication with the creator of the scroll.

The reason why the person he called Lord Ling allowed him, a Fate Guardian, to come here to investigate, was precisely because he had this thing to transmit messages at long distances.

Gently pulling the string on the scroll, a mysterious power immediately rippled out, giving a sense of destiny returning and being unable to resist.

Destiny Energy!

The scroll slowly opened, and a beam of white light surged out from inside, followed by an old man’s face suddenly appearing on it.

“Lord Ling!”

Seeing this person’s appearance, Xu Xin hurriedly knelt down.

Although he had seen this kind of message transmission many times, every time he saw it, he still felt awed.

“Hmm, didn’t I say that without a special reason, don’t waste the scroll? This thing, even if I can refine it, is not so easy to make!”

Lord Ling frowned, looking displeased.

Xu Xin quickly clasped his hands: “Forgive me, Lord Ling; I contacted you because there is indeed something important to report... I seem to have discovered a potentially powerful Destiny Master in White Roc City!”

Lord Ling was taken aback: “Speak about the situation in detail!”

“Of course!”

Xu Xin hurriedly detailed how he discovered this and what had happened.

After hearing his words, Lord Ling’s face suddenly changed, and his voice trembled a bit: “Are you saying... this Destiny Master you found can allow students to cultivate autonomously just by teaching, without relying on their subjective consciousness?”

“Subordinate heard this from City Lord Yu; the specific situation has not been thoroughly investigated yet…”

Xu Xin looked at him with confusion: “Lord Ling, could this not be the power of destiny? Or is there something wrong?”

The ability to let students cultivate autonomously, with every word spoken invoking destiny, where everything follows naturally, was indeed a power unique to Destiny Masters! But...

Lord Ling nodded, his eyes revealing a hint of astonishment: “This ability is identical to that chaotic fate practitioner who emerged from the Zouyi Dynasty a while ago, not a bit different!”
