Ping Yang City, Central Square!
Seeing Yu Haoran quickly adjust his state of mind, Thaling, who originally wanted to console him, chose to keep his mouth shut.
This was because he knew very well that methods like testing one's potential could not be ignored, but there was also no need to pay too much attention to it.
After all, there was a saying in the Tianxuan Continent: unlimited potential!
In other words, every martial artist had limitless potential. However, how to stimulate one's limitless potential required various requirements.
And the secret techniques he had mastered were enough to allow Yu Haoran's potential to easily reach deep blue, deep purple, and even the invisible and colorless Martial God potential was not impossible.
Of course, it was impossible for him to impart it to Yu Haoran now. This was because Yu Haoran did not need to increase his potential for the time being, and his performance did not meet his requirements.
Perhaps it was because the potential that Yu Siqi had just displayed was too monstrous that everyone present was still in a state of shock. Thus, when faced with the potential that Yu Haoran had just displayed, apart from a few people who felt satisfied, the majority of the people present didn't seem to care at all.
And among those who paid attention to Yu Haoran's potential, there was the Sky Sword Sect expert in charge of testing the rogue cultivators.
When the light red glow on Yu Haoran's body completely disappeared, the Sky Sword Sect expert took a few steps forward and stood in front of Yu Haoran. He asked with a smile, "Little brother, I remember that your name seems to be Yu Haoran!"
"Replying to Senior, this junior is indeed Yu Haoran!" Facing the Sky Sword Sect expert's kind attitude, Yu Haoran also hurriedly returned the greeting.
Sky Sword Sect was ranked sixth among the fifteen first-rate sects in terms of overall strength. It was a sect that specialized in using swords.
Yu Haoran was quite familiar with the Sky Sword Sect.
This was because he had interacted with many disciples of the Sky Sword Sect in his previous life, and he had even obtained a set of high-grade Earth-tier sword technique from a core disciple of the Sky Sword Sect.
Of course, the reason why the Sky Sword Sect left a deep impression on him was not because of the grudges between them, but because among the disciples recruited by the Sky Sword Sect this time, there were three monstrous Hidden Dragon Realm geniuses.
What was a Hidden Dragon level monstrous genius?
They were monstrous geniuses whose performance was very ordinary at the beginning, but as their cultivation increased, their talent and potential would continue to increase.
In the future, by relying on these three Hidden Dragon level monstrous geniuses, the Sky Sword Sect would leap from a mid-tier first-rate sect to a peak first-rate sect. In fact, by the time he entered the Demon God's tomb, the Sky Sword Sect had already begun to become a peak first-rate sect.
"Yu Haoran, although our Sky Sword Sect is not ranked among the top seven sects in the Profound Sky Continent, the foundation that our Sky Sword Sect possesses and the cultivation of our disciples is definitely not inferior to those top seven sects."
After expressing the attitude of the Heavenly Sword Sect towards their disciples, the expert of the Heavenly Sword Sect extended a sincere invitation.
"Yu Haoran, with the potential of a beginner Martial Saint that you just displayed, you definitely have the ability to become an elite disciple of our Sky Sword Sect in the future. Even becoming a core disciple is not impossible. So, I wonder if you're willing to join our Sky Sword Sect?"
"This …!" Yu Haoran made a thoughtful expression in the face of the Sky Sword Sect's expert's invitation.
In fact, he was thinking about how to reasonably reject the other party's invitation without causing the other party's displeasure.
After all, his real intention in participating in the Sect Selection was to return to the sect of his previous life and become a disciple of the master who had treated him like his own father. How could he choose to join another sect?
Even if this sect was one of the top seven sects, even if this sect gave him the treatment of a core disciple, he would not be moved!
Moreover, even without the above considerations, he would not join the Sky Sword Sect.
This was because in this Sect Selection, the Sky Sword Sect had recruited three Hidden Dragon level monstrous geniuses. After their cultivation had broken through to the Martial Ancestor Realm, they had begun to display terrifying cultivation talent and potential. This had also caused the direction of the Sky Sword Sect's cultivation to change.
According to what he had learned from some of the elite and core disciples of the Sky Sword Sect in his previous life, the entire Sky Sword Sect, excluding the cultivation resources required by the higher-ups, had used almost sixty percent of the remaining cultivation resources on these three Hidden Dragon level disciples.
The result of this was that although the three Hidden Dragon level disciples had grown rapidly and led to the rapid growth of the Sky Sword Sect's influence, the other disciples had been reduced to the level of ordinary disciples of second-rate sects due to the lack of cultivation resources.
This was also why he had been able to kill the elite disciples of the Sky Sword Sect in a one-on-one battle with his Martial King Realm cultivation without using any underhanded means.
Therefore, he was unwilling and could not join the Sky Sword Sect!
"Senior, to be able to become a disciple of the Sky Sword Sect, even if it's just the most ordinary servant disciple, this junior feels extremely honored. However …!"
At this point, Yu Haoran raised his head and looked at the crowd of second-rate sects on the south side of the high platform in the central square. His tone was filled with apology as he spoke to a very ordinary-looking youth with an ordinary temperament.
"Senior, my father once had a good personal relationship with an elder of a certain sect. Before his death, he specifically told this junior that if my performance in the sect selection was passable, I should try my best to join that sect so that this junior could fulfill his filial duties as the son of his old friend!"
Although what he had said just now was a lie, one thing was true. That was, the reason he had returned to the Hundred Chi Gate was to take care of his master and do his best to avoid the tragedy that had occurred in his previous life.
"What a pity!" Faced with Yu Haoran's rejection, the expert of the Sky Sword Sect shook his head and sighed.
However, he did not continue to persuade him, nor did he try to tempt him by increasing the bargaining chip.
Because in his opinion, although Yu Haoran's potential was not bad, it was far from enough to increase the bargaining chip of the Sky Sword Sect.
Seeing that the expert of the Sky Sword Sect was neither angry nor had the intention to continue inviting him, Yu Haoran could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
Then, he walked in front of Yu Siqi and gave her a look that told her not to speak. Then, he quietly waited for the end of the test.
Although there were many Individual Practitioners on the west side, there were very few contestants who could take the test individually like Yu Haoran and Yu Siqi. Basically, they took the test in groups of ten at the same time. Therefore, the test in the Individual Practitioners' area was also very fast.
Three hours later, all the Individual Practitioners on the west side of the square had finished their tests. In the end, only 23 contestants passed the test and could enter the next challenge of the sect selection.
"Xiao Ran, the sect selection's requirements are so high!" Seeing that nearly 99% of the contestants were eliminated and were rudely ordered out of the square by the expert of the Sky Sword Sect, Yu Siqi could not help but exclaim in surprise.
