Gu Xuan shook his head as he looked at Lin Ling and Yue Xiao's crazed expressions. Talent was indeed important in order to become a true expert. However, one's temperament was even more important. If they were to lose their rationality because of such a small blow, it would be difficult for them to achieve anything in the future.
Gu Xuan kept the Rainbow Talisman in his hand. Suddenly, a green figure appeared in the sky.
The figure was extremely illusory and had almost merged with the void.
The illusory figure was the controller of the Ancient Flame Demon Mansion!
"Let me introduce myself. I am Qing Feng, the thirteenth envoy under the Flame Demon Lord. Everyone can call me Envoy Qing Feng!"
The illusory figure's gaze swept across the crowd as he spoke in a faint voice.
Everyone in the Flame Demon Great Hall quietened down. No matter what happened, they could not show any disrespect in front of Envoy Qing Feng.
Other than the rules that had been established over the years, Envoy Qing Feng was at least an Emperor Stage expert as an envoy under the Flame Demon. Although Envoy Qing Feng had already fallen and only a trace of his soul was left, he had persevered in the Gu Mansion for a hundred years just to carry out the Flame Demon's orders. Such spirit was worthy of their respect.
"The selected examinees, follow me now." Envoy Qing Feng landed on the ground and spoke slowly.
"Yes!"
A dozen people respectfully replied and walked out. Gu Xuan followed behind them and walked over.
The crowd followed Envoy Qing Feng to the back of the great hall. With a wave of his hand, the wall at the back of the great hall parted and revealed an illusory hole.
"Everyone, go in. I will decide if you are qualified to inherit the Ancient Flame Demon Mansion based on your results. It doesn't matter even if you are unable to inherit it. As long as you pass the first round, you will receive a handsome reward."
Many people revealed a glow of excitement. To be able to be called a considerable reward by Envoy Qing Feng, it was obviously not a small matter.
"Envoy, I have something that I am not satisfied with!" Suddenly, Lin Ling coldly snorted and took a step forward.
"Hmm?" Qing Feng's gaze turned to Lin Ling and said indifferently, "What is it that you are not satisfied with? Tell me."
"I am not satisfied with the grade of this Spiritual Talisman. Why am I only an ordinary high-grade Spiritual Talisman, while he has already obtained a Rainbow Spiritual Talisman? I don't believe that he can surpass me!"
Lin Ling's eyes were cold as he pointed at Gu Xuan and slowly said.
"That's right. I also don't believe that a disciple from such a small sect can stand above us!" Yue Xiao's face was also gloomy as he stepped forward.
They were both proud sons of heaven from large sects. Naturally, they thought that they were superior in numbers. Now, Gu Xuan, an unknown person, had actually climbed above them. This caused the two of them to feel very indignant!
"Are you questioning him?" Envoy Qing Feng pointed at Gu Xuan and asked with a strange expression.
Lin Ling nodded. "That's right, I'm doubting him. Please allow me to spar with him. If he can defeat me, I'll admit that he has the right to do so. If he doesn't, I hope that you can expel him. It's an insult to me to be associated with such trash!"
Qing Feng Emissary did not change her expression but looked at Yue Xiao and inquired, "What about you, do you also have the same intention?"
Yue Xiao nodded. "My opinion is the same as Lin Ling's. I don't want to be associated with trash, and I can't stand his level being higher than mine. I think there's a mistake in this assessment."
"Very good." Envoy Qing Feng nodded. A trace of indifference flashed in her eyes as she pointed at Lin Ling and Qing Feng. "The two of you don't need to take the assessment. Leave now."
Once these words were spoken, not only Lin Ling and Yue Xiao, but also the dozen people who were brought here were all shocked.
Lin Ling and Yue Xiao, two super geniuses and possessors of high-grade spirit talismans, were actually disqualified. This was simply unbelievable.
"Envoy, I'm not convinced!" Yue Xiao was furious. "Why did you disqualify the two of us from the assessment? Is it because his spirit talisman is one grade higher than ours? Based on what? "
"I'm not convinced either. You're only an enforcer of the rules. What right do you have to stop the two of us from taking part in the assessment?" Lin Ling was also angry as he looked at Envoy Qing Feng and spoke with an unfriendly expression.
No matter how strong Envoy Qing Feng was, she was only a spirit now. In Lin Ling's anger, he lost his respect for Envoy Qing Feng.
"Since you've said so, that's fine." Envoy Qing Feng looked at the two of them with a sneer on her face. "I won't disqualify the two of you and will bring you along for the assessment. As for why he was able to obtain the Rainbow Spirit Talisman, you will know when the time comes. The evaluation of this spirit talisman is fairer than one's strength!"
After Envoy Qing Feng finished speaking, she directly entered the illusory cave entrance.
Gu Xuan followed her in. Lin Ling and Yue Xiao's expressions were extremely ugly as they also entered, their eyes filled with killing intent.
No matter what, the two of them did not believe that Gu Xuan's talent was above theirs. After the assessment, they could prove themselves.
After entering the illusory cave entrance, the dozen people came to a small sealed space. In front of Envoy Qing Feng, there were dozens of round balls placed on the table.
"This ball is called the Potential Ball. Use the power of the flame to control this ball. The more you control, the stronger your talent is. Controlling one is normal. Controlling three is considered to have passed the first round. Controlling five will allow you to enter the second round. Let's begin. Who will go first?"
Envoy Qing Feng looked at the crowd and said indifferently.
"I'll go first!" A warrior could not hold back and took the lead to walk over. Looking at the fist-sized silver-white round balls, his eyes were filled with excitement and even a trace of disdain.
His power of the flame seeped out from his body and was enough to lift things that weighed a thousand pounds. How could he not be able to lift these small round balls?
Swoosh!
The warrior flicked his finger and the power of the flame spread out from his finger, surging towards the first round ball.
"Hmm?"
After the power of the flame entered the round ball, the warrior's face changed. Although his power of the flame had already entered, it was as if there was no point to exert force. Even if he had a thousand pounds of strength, it was impossible to shake this silver ball in the slightest.
"Not qualified." Envoy Qing Feng directly said indifferently with a sneer in her voice. "These thirty three round balls are all made of special materials. If you want to lift them up, you need to rely on your innate talent. The stronger your innate talent, the stronger your strength when lifting these round balls. Do you think that it is as simple as just telekinesis?"
