In a sense, both Gu Nan and Qin Xuanji were smart people, so neither of them yelled silly things like “I will not join your organization of unknown origin!” or “Let me go home!”
The other party had already revealed the origin of their organization. If they still refused to join now, then only death awaited them.
This “Radiant Tower branch office on Ruby Fish Star’s sixth asteroid belt” was naturally located on an asteroid, which looked desolate to the naked eye, but the facilities in the branch were quite comprehensive.
Equipment such as a gravity chamber, force measuring counter, etc., opened the eyes of Gu Nan, who had just ascended from “Earth.”
Now this is a genuine cultivation civilization!
“Come with me. We’ll first evaluate your cultivation path. The organization will find suitable cultivation techniques for you so that you can grow quickly.”
Tang Xuan led Gu Nan forward as she spoke with a cold tone.
Qin Xuanji was taken away by Old Zhang. Originally, Tang Xuan was more optimistic about the girl, but Old Zhang snatched her away first.
There were basically no weaklings among bloodline users. This was especially true during the Innate Realm, where they could casually crush cultivators of the same level. Qin Xuanji had just been too careless in the assessment mission. She didn’t even get to use her abilities before she was defeated.
But in contrast, this boy in front of her… Tang Xuan looked at Gu Nan’s calm and curious expression as she internally shook her head.
He had to use up all his tricks just to win against a single Han Yueren. His potential basically ended here.
There has never been a shortcut in the path of cultivation. Only absolute power can get you so far.
[Agility, regeneration type talent, unknown cultivation route, suspected of being a body cultivator, comprehensive rating: Innate Realm Third Stage.]
After a series of tests, Gu Nan’s data were all listed out and fell into Tang Xuan’s hands. The latter frowned.
“Search similar cultivation routes,” Tang Xuan spoke in a low voice.
[Data loading, searching…… There is currently no relevant data in the Level 1 database. Analysis of possible cause: agility and regeneration talents conflict.]
The disappointment on Tang Xuan’s face deepened. Under normal circumstances, the regeneration talent was always related to “strength” or “physique”. She had never seen someone who awakened an agility talent at the same time.
Even the organization’s database couldn’t find a cultivation path for him. This further showed that Gu Nan’s potential was insufficient.
Cultivation never placed much emphasis on “winning by a surprise move.” The narrower and more obscure the path, the easier it was to go astray…
Considering the fact that Gu Nan and Qin Xuanji came from a small plane in a lower world, Tang Xuan had already made up a backstory in her head — a sect had no choice but to choose an obscure, crooked path because of the extreme lack of resources, which caused him to awaken such conflicting talents.
Gu Nan had more or less guessed Tang Xuan’s thoughts and was a little amused. “It doesn’t matter if there’s no technique that suits me. The martial arts path I cultivate doesn’t have bad growth prospects.”
The power of the Evil God wasn’t naturally weak. Both the “agility” specialization he chose and the basic Evil God physique’s super regeneration were very strong.
Upon hearing these words, Tang Xuan couldn’t help but roll her eyes while being more certain of the backstory she thought up.
How can techniques created by your lower world compare to Star Realm’s techniques?
Tang Xuan sighed in secret and could only comfort herself that although Gu Nan didn’t have any training value, it was still feasible for him to be an Innate Realm combat power.
Seeing her disbelief, Gu Nan could only shrug and didn’t say anything more.
……
“Here comes some fresh talents again! This time two came at once. Who knows if they can survive three missions?”
“Ye Chong, all you can say is demoralizing stuff!”
“What can I do? Who let the previous batches of people all be like that? I’m also telling the truth here!”
After Gu Nan finished the evaluation, Tang Xuan took him to a place similar to a small tavern, where there were already five or six people, including Zhang Dongsheng and Qin Xuanji.
As soon as he entered the door, he heard waves of loud noises from inside.
Tang Xuan’s face suddenly darkened. “Ye Chong, what are you talking about? Do you remember what the organization’s rules say?”
“Of course I remember, Elder Sister Xuan, don’t be angry!” Ye Chong, a young man with blue hair, came up with a cheeky smile and said, “I’m doing this for their own good.”
“Sister Xuan, Old Ye is right. In the past, we looked after the newcomers too much and made them think that missions were just sightseeing trips, so they weren’t vigilant at all… It’ll be bad for us if the newcomers aren’t cautious.”
A black-haired and black-robed woman next to Ye Chong spoke while peeling a green fruit in her hand, but she peeled it directly with her nails instead of a knife.
Gu Nan couldn’t help but cast a few more glances at her. The woman seemed to have sensed that. She glared back and asked, “The hell are you staring at? Never seen steel claws before?”
“That’s right, I’ve never seen it.” Gu Nan nodded honestly. “Do you wipe your ass when you use the restroom?”
The scene immediately fell into an awkward silence. The noisy people went quiet, and Ye Chong was also stunned. He looked at the woman, then looked back at Gu Nan. Ye Chong grinned. “Newcomers nowadays sure are fierce. You’ve just joined, yet you dare to…”
Bang!
Before he finished speaking, the woman had already slammed her hand down, smashing the tabletop. She suddenly stood up and glared at Gu Nan. “Care to spar?”
So they’re still calling it “sparring,” even after that. Radiant Tower’s “training” is indeed strict…
Gu Nan had fished out some more information while his hands nonchalantly fiddled with his sleeves. He answered casually, “Go ahead.”
The woman raised her eyebrows. Just as she was about to attack, Tang Xuan resolutely stopped the two. “All of you shut up. Spar, what spar? Lin Ruo, you’re Innate Realm Fifth Stage, yet you’re looking to spar with an Innate Realm Third Stage cultivator?”
Old Zhang, who had been sitting next to Qin Xuanji all this time, also stood up with a light smile on his face.
“Why don’t we do this? The mission in Azure City will be carried out by Ye Chong and Lin Ruo. You can take the two newcomers with you.”
Lin Ruo immediately became anxious. “Boss Zhang, this won’t work. I can’t take such a newcomer!”
“What do you mean you can’t? It’s settled then.” Zhang Dongsheng waved his hand.
Since Zhang Dongsheng had already made up his mind, Lin Ruo could no longer get out of this, so she gave Gu Nan a bitter glare, then turned and headed back upstairs.
Right now, Ye Chong wanted to cry but had no tears. He completely got shot while lying down[1]. He came up and patted Gu Nan on the shoulder. “Brother, prepare well. The mission will start in seven days.”
He gave Gu Nan a look that said, “You’re on your own.” Clearly, he didn’t think Lin Ruo would let Gu Nan off the hook so easily.
She probably wouldn’t take his life. After all, he was still a member of the organization. But she would definitely make his life miserable.
Ye Chong knew all about Lin Ruo’s methods.
“You can disperse now. I’ll inform everyone of the next mission. Let’s all return home now.” Zhang Dongsheng clapped and motioned for the crowd to break up, and everyone was also very cooperative in leaving, but most of them couldn’t help sizing Gu Nan up.
In all these years, this was the first time they had seen such a gutsy newcomer…
I wonder if he’ll return alive seven days later?
The members quickly dispersed. Gu Nan and Qin Xuanji were also led to two small rooms on the second floor, leaving only Tang Xuan and Zhang Dongsheng to walk out slowly.
“Old Zhang, did we make a mistake by introducing Gu Nan into the organization?”
