It was not hard to imagine.
If Duan Lingtian had really become the direct disciple of the Sect Leader of Zoroastrianism, even Li An would have no choice but to lower his head and apologize to Duan Lingtian unless he no longer wanted to stay in Zoroastrianism.
However, Li An was unwilling to leave Zoroastrianism.
Moreover, he was unwilling to bow down to Duan Lingtian as well.
For this reason, if Duan Lingtian really possessed an indigo Innate Spiritual Root, there was only one thing he could do.
They had to kill Duan Ling Tian before the Sect Leader of Fire Worship Sect came out of his closed-door cultivation so they could nip this threat in the bud.
Naturally, if Duan Lingtian only possessed a blue Innate Spiritual Root, there was no need for him to be in such a hurry. After all, the Sect Leader of Zoroastrianism would not be interested in someone with a blue Innate Spiritual Root.
"Duan Lingtian, you better pray that you don't possess an indigo Innate Spiritual Root. Otherwise, even if it's risky, I'll do everything I can to get rid of you as soon as possible!"
Li An's gaze turned even colder as he looked at Duan Lingtian.
At the same time, the Spiritual Pearl in Duan Lingtian's hand shone brightly.
However, when they saw this ray of light, apart from Duan Ling Tian who had an expression that said 'it's true', everyone was stunned. All of them were dumbstruck.
Apart from Duan Lingtian, everyone present on the scene seemed to have their necks strangled. They could not make a sound for a long time.
Soon after, some of them regained their senses. However, their expressions were rather amusing.
"How's this possible?!"
"How's this possible? How can Duan Lingtian's Innate Spiritual Root be so low?! "
"This Innate Spiritual Root is not worthy of Duan Lingtian's innate talent!"
"Is there something wrong with the Spiritual Pearl?"
"I think there's something wrong with the Spiritual Pearl as well."
…
After regaining their senses, everyone began to talk amongst themselves. None of them were willing to believe that the scene before them was real.
To be more precise, he was unwilling to believe that the results of Duan Lingtian's talent assessment were real.
Duan Lingtian's test results were:
Yellow Spirit Root!
Most of the thousands of people who participated in the innate talent assessment today possessed yellow Innate Spiritual Roots.
However, since they had witnessed Duan Lingtian's strength and the fact that he was not even 40 years old, they did not expect Duan Lingtian to possess a yellow Innate Spiritual Root.
A yellow Spirit Root was not worthy of Duan Lingtian at all!
Even if she had a green Spiritual Root, they felt that she was not good enough for Duan Lingtian.
In their opinion, only someone with a blue Innate Spiritual Root or above was worthy of Duan Lingtian's innate talent.
"Is there something wrong with the Spiritual Pearl?"
Apart from the others, even the four Bronze Flame Elders and Teng Shan, the Silver Flame Elder, felt the same way.
"Duan Ling Tian, there should be something wrong with that Spirit Pearl … Try another Spirit Pearl."
Try another Spiritual Pearl, "Teng Shan said as he looked at Duan Lingtian.
At the same time, he gestured at the other Bronze Flame Elder. The Bronze Flame Elder placed the Spiritual Pearl in front of Duan Lingtian.
Li An was still in shock when he learned that Duan Lingtian only possessed a yellow Innate Spiritual Root. Due to this reason, he did not object to Teng Shan's arrangement.
Of course, in the depths of his heart, he subconsciously felt that there was something wrong with the Spiritual Bead.
Duan Lingtian was not even 40 years old, but he possessed the strength to kill a Mastery Divine Saint Stage Martial Cultivator even after he was severely injured. With such innate talent, how could he only possess a yellow Innate Spiritual Root?
"Elder Teng Shan, I don't think there's any need for me to try anymore. There's nothing wrong with the Spiritual Pearl; my Innate Spiritual Root should be a yellow Innate Spiritual Root. "
Duan Lingtian smiled wryly as he looked at Teng Shan under the watchful eyes of the others.
Duan Lingtian knew his innate talent better than anyone else. Although his innate talent had reached the peak in the Mortal Continent and the Cloud Continent after he consumed the 10,000 Years Stalactite Milk, his innate talent was only at the peak in the Mortal Continent and the Cloud Continent.
However, his innate talent was only at the peak in the Mortal Continent!
The peak innate talent of a mortal with six points could only be considered as ordinary in the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land. It was nothing in the Upper Province!
Apart from that, he did not think there was something wrong with the Spiritual Pearl when he was being tested.
For this reason, he was certain he only possessed a yellow Innate Spiritual Root!
It was impossible for him not to be disappointed by the result of the test.
However, since Duan Lingtian was mentally prepared, he was able to face it calmly.
"Use another Spiritual Pearl to test again! I believe I'm not the only one. The others won't believe you only possess a yellow Innate Spiritual Root! "
Upon hearing Duan Lingtian's words, Teng Shan thought Duan Lingtian did not care about the result of the test. Therefore, he insisted on letting Duan Lingtian take the test again.
The others nodded in agreement as well.
At this moment, even if Duan Lingtian felt there was no need for him to test again, he was still forced to do so.
As Duan Lingtian placed his hand on another Spiritual Pearl, everyone's attention shifted to the other Spiritual Pearl that Duan Lingtian was touching.
"There won't be a problem with the Spiritual Pearl this time, right?"
"It's rare for there to be a problem once. There won't be a problem again. How can there be such a coincidence?"
"Do you think Duan Lingtian really possesses a yellow Innate Spiritual Root?"
"Do you think it's possible? Unless he knows a secret tactic to conceal his cultivation base or his real age, his Innate Spiritual Root is at least a blue Innate Spiritual Root! "
…
Many people did not forget to discuss among themselves as they stared at the Spiritual Pearl that Duan Lingtian was touching.
Another ten breaths of time passed.
As the Spiritual Pearl glowed faintly, the scene fell silent again. Everyone held their breaths as they stared at the Spiritual Pearl that Duan Lingtian was touching.
The light on the Spiritual Pearl continued to shine.
In the end, it seemed to have transformed into a scorching sun.
However, when the radiance on the Spiritual Pearl completely revealed its color, the entire place fell into a deathly silence.
After a few moments, the scene became as noisy as a market.
"It's still a yellow Innate Spiritual Root?!"
"How … How's this possible?! Don't tell me there's a problem with the Spiritual Pearl again? "
"It's possible for one Spiritual Pearl to have a problem, but two Spiritual Pearls at the same time? Impossible! It seems like Duan Lingtian really only possesses a yellow Innate Spiritual Root. "
"Based on the strength he displayed yesterday and his age, how can his Innate Spiritual Root only be a yellow Innate Spiritual Root?"
"Age? Has it ever crossed your mind that since he can conceal his cultivation base, he might be able to conceal his real age as well? Perhaps, he's already a few hundred years old and has intentionally concealed his real age to pretend to be young. "
"Now that you mention it, it's possible! Although I've never heard of a secret tactic to conceal one's real age, I've never heard of a secret tactic to conceal one's cultivation base before I met him. For this reason, it's not strange for him to possess a secret tactic to conceal his real age. "
"Humph! A few hundred years old old fella actually concealed his real age and cultivation base to participate in the assessment of the Four Symbols Sanctums of Zoroastrianism. This is my first time seeing someone pretending to be young to such an extent! "
…
The scene was extremely noisy as everyone discussed among themselves.
Initially, some people thought there might be a problem with the second Spiritual Pearl as well.
However, this was quickly rejected.
In the end, most people came to the same conclusion.
Duan Lingtian was, in fact, an old fella who was a few hundred years old. He was only able to mislead everyone because he knew a secret tactic to conceal his real age and cultivation base.
At this moment, even Teng Shan agreed with this statement deep down in his heart.
Otherwise, he really did not know how to explain the scene before his eyes.
"Yellow Innate Spiritual Root?"
Li An laughed when he saw Duan Lingtian still possessed a yellow Innate Spiritual Root after the second assessment. A hint of disdain could be seen in his eyes. "As it turns out, he's just a useless old fart!"
Previously, just like everyone else, he had thought Duan Lingtian was a young martial genius with extraordinary innate talent.
However, it seemed like they had misjudged him.
He was obviously an old fart who used a secret tactic to pretend to be young!
"Old fart?"
When Duan Lingtian heard the discussion in the surroundings, he could not help but feel shocked. He did not expect people would think he was an old fart who pretended to be young.
Although he was not even 40 years old.
Compared to the people in front of him, he seemed to be the youngest, right?
Duan Lingtian did not know whether to laugh or cry when he was referred to as an old fart by a group of people who were older than him.
Naturally, he did not know whether to laugh or cry. Although he felt helpless, he could not explain to others how he managed to possess such strength despite his innate talent.
Could he tell others that he possessed the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda and had many fortuitous encounters?
Could he tell others that his cultivation base had only recently broken through to the Early Divine Saint Stage?
"Forget it … Let them say what they want."
In the end, Duan Lingtian turned a deaf ear to the discussion in the surroundings and shifted his attention back to his Innate Spiritual Root. His heart was filled with bitterness. "My Innate Spiritual Root is only a yellow Innate Spiritual Root … Perhaps, if I didn't consume the 10,000 Year Stalactite Milk in the Cloud Continent, my Innate Spiritual Root would be even lower!"
"Huo Lao, can one's Innate Spiritual Root transform and improve?"
Although Duan Lingtian was mentally prepared, he was still dissatisfied with his yellow Innate Spiritual Root.
He really hoped there was a way to improve his Innate Spiritual Root.
"My Innate Spiritual Root is only a yellow Innate Spiritual Root, but I've already cultivated to the Early Divine Saint Stage at such a young age … If I can improve my Innate Spiritual Root, with the help of the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, wouldn't my cultivation speed be heaven-defying?"
The moment Duan Lingtian thought of this, he became slightly excited.
However, he seemed to have thought of something. His excitement seemed to have been extinguished by a bucket of cold water. "Perhaps, I can't improve my Innate Spiritual Root now?
Based on my earlier observation, I roughly know what the Innate Spiritual Root in this Mundane Realm is. "
