He had already experienced many trials and tribulations, including being hunted down by cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage, even those in the late Nascent Soul stage.
He had seen extraordinary figures like the Blood Clan's Old Ancestor and the Blood Demon Sect's Master, Xue Qingchen, so he wasn't particularly impressed by these big shots of various sects.
However, he was also very alarmed, feeling that he had played things a bit too big this time.
But he steadied his mind, immersed himself in the role, and with his level of trust in the Dust of Time, he believed he absolutely wouldn't be exposed.
The seven Supreme Elders were like children, each with beaming faces, all their gazes fixed on Mu Xi, completely disregarding everyone else.
Mu Xi felt a little embarrassed, lowered her head, and was very nervous.
Where had she ever experienced such a scene? But the seven big shots quickly withdrew their imposing manners, making Mu Xi feel that they were just amiable senior figures.
Sect Master Xiao Mowan said with a smile, "Good, good, I'll accept such a good disciple."
However, Supreme Elder Ding Wuyan expressed a different opinion, "Junior Sister, that won't do. This time, I must take a disciple.
I think this girl is suitable to be my disciple. My mantle needs someone to inherit it. My disciples are all good-for-nothing wastrels."
Ma Wutian twitched his nose upon hearing this.
His master was Ding Wuyan. Wasn't Ding Wuyan's statement scolding him? But he also understood that Ding Wuyan wasn't really scolding him, but rather striving for this genius disciple.
He was also very happy to see this kind of healthy competition within the sect for disciples.
Xiao Mowan firmly refuted Ding Wuyan, saying, "Mu Xi is a girl, and I am also a girl. It's naturally more convenient to teach her.
What are you, an old man, meddling for? I advise you to give up on this idea."
She revealed an innocent smile, gently embraced Mu Xi, and said softly, "Little girl, are you willing to become my disciple? I will definitely pour all my effort and inheritance into you, so that you will have a brilliant future in the world of cultivation."
Mu Xi looked at this beautiful elder sister, feeling her kindness and love. As a girl, she would naturally choose Xiao Mowan.
She nodded and agreed to Xiao Mowan's request.
Ding Wuyan looked at this scene, although somewhat helpless, but also understood that he indeed had no advantage.
He sighed and said, "Alright, since Mu Xi has chosen the Sect Master, then I won't force it. However, Mu Xi can become your disciple, and I can also give her some guidance from time to time. What do you think?"
Xiao Mowan immediately nodded in agreement, "That would be the best!"
The other Supreme Elders also expressed that they would also guide Mu Xi in the future.
Mu Xi immediately felt very happy. She didn't expect that so many big shots would be willing to guide her. Although she didn't quite understand why these big figures were so happy, she could feel their kindness and expectations.
Ma Wutian respectfully said, "Congratulations, Martial Uncle Sect Master, on obtaining such a good seedling. In the future, our Wind Cloud Sect will surely have a great confluence of talents and reach new heights."
Everyone laughed heartily. Mu Xi, although somewhat confused, was also infected by this joyful atmosphere.
Mu Xi suddenly pointed to the dull and timid Li Chengfeng in the distance and said to Xiao Mowan, "And him, we haven't tested his spiritual root attributes yet. I want to see what his spiritual root is like."
Although the little girl spoke softly, with a hint of shyness, there was a trace of unquestionable determination in her tone.
Her grape-like eyes sparkled with a bright luster, making people feel good about her at first glance.
Xiao Mowan nodded, indicating her agreement. Thus, everyone turned their attention to Li Chengfeng, looking forward to his next performance.
At this moment, Li Chengfeng's heart was pounding like a drum, and his hair was standing on end. This was definitely not something he was pretending, but genuine fear.
He was originally someone who was trying to pass himself off as competent, but he didn't expect to encounter such a big scene this time. Even the Sect Master and all the high-level big shots were gathered here. What was he supposed to do?
Bai Mo, who was beside him, was even more frightened out of his wits. He originally thought that bringing a small disciple into the sect was just a small matter that could be done under the table, but now it was exposed in front of so many big shots.
He knelt on the ground, not daring to move, fearing that a single mistake would bring about a catastrophe.
Bai Xiaotong and Sun Guan looked at the helpless Li Chengfeng, their hearts filled with mixed feelings.
Bai Xiaotong's eyes sparkled with a bright light. She was very curious about Li Chengfeng's aptitude. This was the first time she had seen such a handsome young man, making people feel good about him at first sight.
Sun Guan didn't care. In his heart, he cursed that the disciple brought by Bai Mo was useless, embarrassing the Sect Master, and might be beaten to death in a fit of anger.
Upon seeing this, Ma Wutian immediately said, "Li Xu, go and press on that Wind Chime Pillar to see what your aptitude is like.
Don't be afraid or timid. No matter what your aptitude is, you will be arranged into the outer sect today. Are you satisfied?"
Everyone nodded frequently, expressing their approval.
Li Chengfeng smiled bitterly in his heart. He knew that he couldn't muddle through this time no matter what.
He originally planned to control the Wind Stabilizing Pearl to disguise his aptitude, but now that there were so many big shots present, if he did so, he would probably be noticed immediately.
He took a deep breath and decided to show himself naturally.
No matter what his aptitude was, he would first get through this hurdle. If he couldn't get through this hurdle, there would be no point in talking about cultivating in the future.
Thinking of this, he suddenly gritted his teeth and put his hand on the Wind Spirit Pillar.
Suddenly, with a "buzz" sound, the world changed color. The entire Wind Spirit Pillar suddenly stirred up two whirlwinds, revolving around Li Chengfeng himself, presenting black and white colors. These two winds, one yin and one yang, intertwined with each other, forming a peculiar picture.
At this moment, Li Chengfeng was apprehensive. He knew that he couldn't control his power to avoid exposure, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
His original intention was to cultivate in a low-key manner, hiding his strength, but now the situation had exceeded his expectations. He could only try his best to remain calm and deal with the situation that followed naturally.
Seeing Li Chengfeng causing such a phenomenon, all the big shots, including Ma Wutian, were overjoyed beyond measure.
They realized that another top-grade spiritual root had been born.
And what Li Chengfeng possessed was also a top-grade Wind Spiritual Root. Unlike ordinary spiritual bodies, his spiritual root was actually one yin and one yang, which was extremely rare.
One of these two winds was a yang wind, as blazing as the scorching sun, with red light flashing, as if it could burn everything; the other was a yin wind, presented in black, carrying a strange aura, raging in all directions, and incomparably domineering.
Although these images were only fleeting, they were enough to set off the extraordinary nature of Li Chengfeng's top-grade Wind Spiritual Root.
Everyone was stunned. They didn't expect Li Chengfeng's aptitude to be so amazing, able to cause such a phenomenon.
Sect Master Xiao Mowan and several Supreme Elders all showed shocked expressions. They knew that the sect had picked up a treasure this time.
Bai Mo's mood at this moment could be described as mixed, constantly complaining.
Originally, his and Li Chengfeng's plan was for Li Chengfeng to be taken into the outer sect with a mid-grade aptitude and become his disciple.
However, the current situation had completely exceeded their expectations.
The top-grade Wind Spiritual Root that Li Chengfeng displayed was undoubtedly a dazzling star, causing a huge sensation in the sect.
