I Have Medicine-Chapter 454 - Apprenticing to a Master

However, despite having this thought, Gongyi Tianheng didn’t go to test such a special constitution. After all, before the Tiandu Body gathered five types of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects to form a five elements cycle, his physical body required nursing every time his realms advanced. No matter how strong he was, this was considered a weak point. It also wasn’t known what grade would be displayed during the test — If, by any chance, outsiders noticed any clues, that wouldn’t bode well.

Besides, after the three people’s test results appeared, it shocked everyone watching on the side.

That man had long restrained his previously careless and absent-minded attitude. His expression had switched to become dignified: “Do these three junior sisters want to join my Ten Ultimates Sect? Junior Sect Brother Gongyi, don’t let your own fertile waters flow into another farmer’s field.”

Tianheng had a smile on his face: “Naturally.”

The man replied with a smile of his own: “At that time, which palace masters will these three junior sisters apprentice under...”

Tianheng said: “This will depend on predestined affinity.”

The man had several thoughts in mind.

In other words, these three women would enter Ten Ultimates Sect. Moreover, although these seedlings were unearthed by the Blood Transformation Palace Hall, the Blood Transformation Palace Hall didn’t have any intention of monopolizing them.

Without a doubt, he was allowed to pass along the information to the other palace halls.

But before that, while they finished testing their special constitutions, they still had to test their potential.

Tianheng had seen those pillars before. One tested attack power, one tested comprehension, and one tested physical toughness. The combination of these three types formed a person’s potential and aptitude. Of course, some people’s attack power wasn’t strong, but their other abilities were formidable. As such, they needed to rely on the fourth pillar — Injecting internal qi into that pillar could transform other powers to be measured.

It was just that, in the end, this world respected martial arts. Under normal circumstances, strong attack power was one of the most basic criteria to make a judgment.

Getting back to the topic at hand, the man said: “These three junior sisters, please test your potential carefully.”

Due to their different characteristics, the abilities of special constitutions were generally strengthened to a certain extent for the tests of these four pillars. The higher the grade of the special constitution, the greater the degree of enhancement.

The first one was still Huang Ji.

He took a step forward, and an explosive punch landed on the attack power pillar.

In an instant, rays of light suddenly appeared on the pillar. In the blink of an eye, these lights rushed all the way to the tenth star!

Attack power, prodigy level!

Immediately following that, he pressed his palm against the second pillar.

Not long after, the stars on this pillar were continuously illuminated. After a short while, the tenth star was similarly lit.

Comprehension, prodigy level!

Then, Huang Ji entered the third pillar’s capsule, and allowed that liquid to pressurize his body.

Some time passed, and he walked out. Nevertheless, ten stars were still illuminated.

Physical toughness, prodigy level!

The man’s pupils suddenly constricted.

Unexpectedly, this handsome and heroic-looking woman’s three tests were all at the prodigy level. In that case, she was an honorable prodigy!

Even though the three criteria only just entered ten stars, this one was worth recruiting!

The man took a deep breath, and said to Huang Ji: “Junior sister, your aptitude is incredible.”

Huang Ji cast him a sidelong glance, but didn’t say anything.

Tianheng smiled at him: “Congratulations, Senior Sect Brother Huang.”

Then, Huang Ji nodded at Tianheng.

Upon seeing this, that man raised his eyebrows.

After that, the man looked at the other two girls.

He had long noticed that Huang Ji was the strongest among the three women, but these last two had special constitutions as well. Perhaps, they could give him a pleasant surprise, too?

Soon, Ling Ziwei calmed her state of mind, and moved ahead for the tests.

Her constitution wasn’t the type that was good at offensive attacks. As a result, for the first test, she utilized the fourth pillar, which transformed one’s power.

Ling Ziwei wasn’t one to disappoint others. In the blink of an eye, the stars constantly lit up, and quickly dashed straight to the tenth star! With the addition of certain aspects, her constitution had actually reached ten stars!

Power transformation, prodigy level!

Shortly thereafter was the comprehension test.

This time around, her power of understanding rushed out until she reached the eighth star.

Comprehension, exceptional genius level.

Finally, it was the physical toughness test.

As a a young girl who hadn’t purposefully honed her physical body, although she had been vigorously nurtured in Qingyun Sect, she was obviously still somewhat lacking. This time, it was just three stars.

In other words, her physical toughness was only at the ordinary genius level.

Once Xi Shuangyun saw this, she became a little nervous.

Likewise, she also used the pillar that tested power transformation, and attained a ten-stars prodigy level. Following this was the comprehension test, which reached nine-stars exceptional genius level. As for physical toughness, because she never cultivated her body at all, she only barely reached one star.

Indeed, Ling Ziwei and Xi Shuangyun couldn’t be compared to Huang Ji. However, one of the three criteria achieved the prodigy level. Their comprehensions also weren’t weak. Even though their physical bodies really weren’t up to standard, this was enough to attract people’s attention.

After all, the other two criteria were innate, but the physical body was the easiest to strengthen.

These kind of test results were all within Tianheng’s expectations. Moreover, he clearly understood that this was far from their best performance.

On the Peripheral Continents, the three hadn’t achieved the most optimal nurturing, so it was only natural that their bodies were weak. Xi Shuangyun and Ling Ziwei were this feeble because their special constitutions weren’t the type that enhanced the physical body. As a result, it was basically all about the transformation of power, which allowed that one aspect to reach the prodigy level. If they trained more in the future, perhaps they could become even more powerful as their strength increased.

However, Huang Ji’s special constitution really did surpass the constitutions of those two girls. The Heavenly Beast Body’s attack power and physical toughness were extraordinary. Merely, there wasn’t enough resources. His toughness and offensive capabilities hadn’t achieved their strongest states. Otherwise, with regards to these two criteria, he should’ve gotten at least eleven or even a full twelve stars!

With the resources of Ten Ultimates Sect, so long as Xi Shuangyun and Ling Ziwei joined the sect, it probably wouldn’t take long for them to improve their physical bodies. At the very least, their toughness wouldn’t be their weak point by the time they reached the elite genius level. Please visit f𝒓𝑒e𝓌e𝚋𝘯૦𝘷e𝗹. c૦𝒎

Once the three of them finished testing, that man’s expression was also quite pleased.

He mainly valued the two aspects of power transformation and comprehension. On the contrary, physical toughness came second.

One couldn’t focus on how Xi Shuangyun and Ling Ziwei weren’t considered prodigies. Under this kind of rigorous testing, even exceptional geniuses might’ve had a hard time passing. If it was within a small-scale organization, they would’ve been nurtured as prodigies — In organizations of different ranks, their standards of a prodigy weren’t the same.

At the minimum, for silver-ranked organizations and above, they had to meet requirements in several aspects before they could be called prodigies. Generally, so long as one of the aspects reached the level of a prodigy, and, among the other two, their comprehension reached the exceptional genius level, they could be called a prodigy.

This was also one of the reasons why there were different ranks between prodigies.

— Just like the three quarreling prodigies on the Road of Death back then. In fact, none of them could compare to the prodigies who met the standards of silver-ranked organizations.

The man said: “When do these three junior sisters intend to apprentice themselves?”

Tianheng faintly smiled: “Right now, I’ll bring them to pay a formal visit to my master. This senior brother can inform each of the palace halls about this matter. If they’re interested in accepting disciples, they can send word to my master.”

The man nodded his head: “Okay. It’s good that the Blood Transformation Palace Master is around.” After he finished speaking, he waved to them, “In the future, I hope to see these three junior sisters coming to the Martial Arts Practice Hall to train often. At that time, as your senior brother, I’ll certainly introduce these junior sisters to some good places.”

Tianheng smiled: “Many thanks, senior brother.”

Soon after, Tianheng called for the wild bird once more. Carrying the three seedlings, it flew towards the Blood Transformation Palace Hall.

The man watched them fly into the distance. With a snap of his fingers, he summoned his own subordinates. He ordered them to take a token, go to each palace hall, and report the news of this time’s outstanding disciples.

Without much extra effort, the qi emissions carried by those three women were also conveyed — This allowed those palace masters to sense whether these constitutions were suited to their body cultivation methods.

Returning to Tianheng, he brought the three back to the Blood Transformation Palace Hall. He didn’t need to verify his identity, and led the people inside by directly flashing his face.

Once the Blood Transformation Palace Master heard the report, he was already waiting in the hall. Upon seeing Tianheng, he revealed an amiable smile: “Apprentice, is the testing finished?”

Tianheng said with a smile: “That’s right.” Then, he informed the palace master about the three’s test results, “Later on, this disciple will need master’s help to discern which palace halls these three old friends should apprentice under.”

The three also stepped forward, and paid their respects to the Blood Transformation Palace Master:

“Huang Ji—”

“Ling Ziwei—”

“Xi Shuangyun—”

“Greetings, palace master.”

The Blood Transformation Palace Master brushed his sleeve, and allowed the three of them to rise. Then, he said: “It’s no bother. In light of my apprentice’s honor, I’ll let them join the most suitable palace halls.”

Tianheng gave another smile.

With his master’s identity, such words were just to remind the three people to accept his kind intentions.

It was enough to show how much his master cherished him.

The three also heard the meaning within those words. Naturally, they didn’t object. In addition, they knew from the beginning that these opportunities were due to Tianheng’s fortune.

Soon after, the Blood Transformation Palace Master plainly said: “Do you three have any preferences?”

Tianheng said: “Because they hadn’t been tested before, this disciple hadn’t informed them about the particulars of the Ten Ultimates Palace Halls yet.”

The Blood Transformation Palace Master faintly nodded: “Since it’s like this, it’s better to wait a moment. Later on, you can choose from among those who are wiling to come over to accept apprentices. If they don’t come, no matter how suitable that palace hall would be, it’s nothing more than a stroke of bad luck! With the aptitudes of you three, even if no one else accepts you, there won’t be any problems entering my Blood Transformation Palace Hall. At most, this venerable one just has to find some formidable elders to come over and give you dedicated guidance.”

Hearing what was said, the three naturally expressed their gratitude once again.

Following this, the Blood Transformation Palace Master asked them about their attributes. He had many thoughts in mind.

While they were speaking, several figures with extremely terrifying suppressive might unknowingly arrived. After a few gusts of wind, several men and women appeared inside the large Blood Transformation Palace Hall.

Tianheng took a quick look, and already recognized them. The Ten Ultimates Palace Halls had a total of ten palace masters. Except for the Blood Transformation Palace Master, there were nine people left. And six of them came here.

Respectively, they were the palace masters of the Frigid Ice Palace Hall, Ardent Earth Palace Hall, Jade Ocean Palace Hall, Fallen Soul Palace Hall, Red Sands Palace Hall, and Howling Wind Palace Hall.

The other three probably saw something from the qi emissions that wasn’t suitable, so they didn’t come over.

The Fallen Soul Palace Master was the first to take a step forward: “Who has the Moon Siren Body? I am the venerable Fallen Soul Palace Master. This kind of constitution is the most suitable for my palace hall!”

Ling Ziwei startled. Then, she saluted and said: “This younger generation, Ling Ziwei, pays her respects to the palace master.”

In the blink of an eye, the gaze of the Fallen Soul Palace Master swept over Ling Ziwei. After that, his eyes were filled with satisfaction: “Not bad, not bad. Sure enough, this is the Moon Siren Body. Are you willing to become an apprentice to this venerable one?”
