Strongest Abandoned Son (Web Novel)

Ye Mo placed his hand on the device and sent in some chi, but there was no reaction at all.

"No talent. Unsatisfactory. Next!" the interviewer's cold voice sounded. Before Ye Mo could say anything, he was squeezed away.

Mu Xiaoyun quickly came over to him and grabbed his hand.

Ye Mo looked at the device in confusion. How could he not have spiritual root? He could cultivate. Those without spirit root couldn't cultivate, and Ye Mo didn't think he had a mutated spirit root because there was no way he would cultivate this slow in that case.

"Husband, let's go to another place. Their device must be faulty." Mu Xiaoyun's words caused some laughter.

Ye Mo smiled and didn't mind. It was normal that these simple devices were faulty. He pulled Mu Xiaoyun's hand and went to the farthest sect. He might as well go to an ungraded sect, since he couldn't enter a third grade sect.

In the end, they went to a few sects, but all the tests indicated that he had no talent. This made Ye Mo speechless. If that was the case, then he couldn't join the hidden sects at all. If he didn't join them, he wouldn't be able to get news of Taiyi sect.

Hmm- Wasn't Ice Lake a special grade sect before? Why was it just a third grade sect now? Ye Mo stared at the small sect with the name Ice Lake.

"Husband, why don't we try this sect?" Mu Xiaoyun also saw Ice Lake.

"Okay, let's go have a look at Ice Lake," Ye Mo nodded and agreed.

The man next to Ye Mo heard this and said in good will, "Brother, I suggest you not to go there. They're just a third grade sect, but do you know what kind of talent they require? Level 3 or above. If I had level 3 talent I would go to a second grade sect. Why would I bother going to a sect that can barely stay as third grade?"

Ye Mo finally understood why there were few people there. Ye Mo scanned the place - there were five people. A black level middle stage man in his 50s, a middle-aged woman who was black level and a young girl with her face covered who was also black level.

It seemed the two women were responsible for recruiting disciples.

Their power was indeed worse than a regular third grade sect. Other than them, there was also a young teenager. He looked very skinny. Ye Mo believed that these were the new disciples they had gotten. The last person was an old woman in her 60s.

Just when Ye Mo was about to take back his spirit sense, he was shook. He couldn't see the old woman's power. Before the old woman frowned, Ye Mo took back his spirit sense. He knew that such a powerful master could sense his every move.

One of the three people he hadn't been able to see through the previous night was at Ice Lake.

Why was Ice Lake a third grade sect when they had such a master? Ye Mo didn't want to join such a sect, it was too strange.

The old woman looked around as though she had sensed Ye Mo's spirit sense. He didn't dare to keep looking around. Just when he wanted to leave with Mu Xiaoyun, the middle-aged woman suddenly said to Mu Xiaoyun, "Do you want to get tested? Put your hand on the device and insert you qi."

"En." Mu Xiaoyun found herself walking up to the device. The middle-aged woman's words were very amicable.

"Husband, can I take the test?" Mu Xiaoyun looked back at Ye Mo.

Ye Mo smiled, "Sure, try it. We'll come back tomorrow."

The reason he had said this was because he knew Mu Xiaoyun's spirit root wasn't much higher than his.

Hearing this, Mu Xiaoyun joyfully placed her hand on the device. She had long wanted to test her talent.

The middle-aged woman really liked Mu Xiaoyun when she saw her. She was pretty and had this ethereal temperament to her. That's why she had offered to test her.

Mu Xiaoyun placed her hand on the device and inserted her chi. There was a bright green light.

"What?" almost everyone's attention was caught by this bright green light. Even Ye Mo dazed. He didn't think Mu Xiaoyun was a level one talent.

The old woman in Ice Lake stood up in shock and looked at Mu Xiaoyun with disbelief and joy.

"The best talent of the level 1! Good, good, good!" the old woman said in excitement.

The middle-aged woman grabbed Mu Xiaoyun's hand and said, "What's your name? You passed! You are now Ice Lake's core disciple."

The middle-aged woman's hands were shaking.

The news of the best talent in level 1 had been found soon spread through the entire square. Almost all first grade and special grade sects knew about these news.

All of Taiyi, Kun Qian and Ci Hang Jing's Mosque people came over. It was already very hard to discover a level one talent, much less a very good one amongst them.

"Grandma." The middle-aged woman saw that more and more people coming and looked worriedly at the old woman.

"Haha- Grandma Feng, Ice Lake is really lucky. You found a level 1 talent on the first day. Kun Qian's Ling Wushui is very envious," an old man came over, but his voice sounded first.

Ye Mo stood on the side, staring at the old man. Just from his temperament, he knew that he was no weaker than the old woman.

"Thank you, Brother Ling, for your kind words. Miao Lian, record this disciple. She'll be Ice Lake's core disciple from now on," the old man said plainly.

The middle-aged woman heard this and replied, "Yes, grandma."

"Wait." Ling Wushui suddenly waved his hand and said, "Kun Qian is willing to give you more than 10 cities and five spots for herb collection at Five Wen Mountain as long as Ice Lake can hand over this disciple."

Taiyi and Ci Hang Jing Mosque, who had come later, didn't say anything after seeing Ling Wushui had given such an offer. This was the best they could do too. If Ice Lake agreed, they could reach 2nd grade sect in the next sect and resource division.

The old woman sneered, "Sorry, Brother Ling, our Ice Lake's has had a broken generation. It's time for us to get disciples. With this, are you trying to ruin our foundation? Although Ice Lake has declined, we can't destroy our own foundation. Brother Ling, please leave."

Ling Wushui sneered and looked at Mu Xiaoyun saying kindly, "Girl, Kun Qian is one of the big three. If you join us, not only will you have far more resources and higher status than Ice Lake, your family will also be honoured."

"Ling Wushui, what are you doing?" the old woman suddenly appeared in front of Ling Wushui.

Taiyi sect and Ci Hang Jing sect's people knew that although Ice Lake had declined, Grandma Feng's power was indeed very strong. It wasn't worth to start conflict over a disciple.

"How about this? Let's see what this girl wants to do herself. If she wants to join Kun Qian sect, then she does. If she wants to stay at Ice Lake, she can. If she wants to join Taiyi, then I will also let her become a core disciple," an old man from Taiyi quickly said.
