He had to admit, he liked this type of tycoon.
Zhang Deming took a deliberate look at Qian Xiaogong. ’I don’t know about his rit, but judging by the rules of Qi Fortune, a rich kid like this must have a decent amount, right?’
’If that’s true, doesn’t it an she’s basically delivering a fat sheep to my door, just waiting to be fleeced?’
For a mont, Zhang Deming’s thoughts raced, his mind wandering a bit.
Yue ngsheng and the other two exchanged a look upon hearing her words. They remained silent for a long ti, not taking up the conversation. Zhang Deming watched them, confused. What did their reaction an?
’Even if they’re not confident, they should at least give it a try. What’s with this reaction?’
After a mont’s hesitation, Gan Zili finally looked to Yue ngsheng and asked, "Shall we activate the Pearl?"
Yue ngsheng pondered for a long ti before saying, "Let’s do it. It just so happens that our Spirit Nurturing Peak hasn’t activated the Pearl in several hundred years. The outside world has probably forgotten about our peak."
Hearing this, Gan Zili said, "Then let’s do it!"
With that said, he turned to Qian Ruyan and said, "Fellow Daoist Ruyan, are you sure about this? Activating the Pearl once, even if we at Spirit Nurturing Peak don’t charge you any service fees, will still cost ten thousand Spirit Stones.
Such a huge expense, just to perform a simple talent assessnt for a person of ordinary aptitude... the result may not be worth the price."
Qian Ruyan smiled. "I brought Xiaogong to your Spirit Nurturing Peak precisely for your Celestial Eye Peeping Source Pearl. No need to consider it further. I made up my mind a long ti ago."
With that, she flipped her hand and produced a Crystal Stone, which floated gently in front of Gan Zili.
Zhang Deming stared at the object, slightly stunned. It was a Spirit Crystal!
A true tycoon, no doubt about it!
Anyone who used Spirit Crystals as currency was an absolute tycoon!
After all, while one Spirit Crystal was nominally worth ten thousand Spirit Stones, it was also a very precious material among Low-Level Cultivators and always commanded a premium.
Gan Zili looked at the Spirit Crystal, gave a wry smile, and said, "Alright then, let’s go activate the Pearl."
He then waved his hand, and Song Huidong, who had been waiting outside the hall, hurried in.
Gan Zili didn’t try to hide it from Qian Ruyan. He handed the Spirit Crystal to Song Huidong and said, "Quickly, go allocate ten thousand Spirit Stones to the Source Pearl Hall."
Song Huidong froze for a mont upon hearing this, then took the Spirit Crystal and said, "Understood, Master!"
With that, he quickly departed.
After taking care of this, Gan Zili turned and said, "Well then, let’s go and see if this child, Xiaogong, might have so unexpected serendipity."
In the Hongng Realm, the Spirit Root represented almost everything about one’s cultivation Talent. The so-called Dao Body, Brain Domain Storm, Magic Talent, Superpowers, and so on from his previous life all referred to it.
And in the Hongng Realm, besides the Spirit Root, other Physiques were essentially a variation of one’s Bloodline.
The most prominent example was Bloodline-type Cultivators. After their Bloodline Runes had condensed and reached a certain level, it was possible for them to pass down so Runes, or fragnts of Runes, to their descendants.
In this way, the descendant would have an Innate advantage in cultivating a certain Daoist Technique. This was the so-called Physique in the Hongng Realm.
Of course, this wasn’t limited to Bloodlines. For any Technique developed by a Cultivator to the Scripture level, where the Runes in their body were perfected, there was a certain chance of it being passed down to their descendants.
It just appeared earlier and more easily with Bloodline types.
For example, if a Sword Cultivator developed their specialized Swordsmanship to the Scripture level, their resulting family line might produce a so-called Sword Body. This was even more certain if it reached the Scripture Skill level.
This Sword Body was fundantally unrelated to one’s Spiritual Power Cultivation; it only helped with the Sword Dao.
Moreover, once this Bloodline appeared, it beca rooted within the family’s blood. It would only be diluted, never disappearing, and it was even possible for a descendant to suddenly experience a throwback after dozens of generations.
This phenonon created another type of assessnt besides the Spirit Root test: the Physique assessnt.
However, this wasn’t a common test. Furthermore, once diluted, it was extrely difficult to detect, so ordinary people didn’t bother getting tested.
It was only in situations like this, when one wanted to create a completely custom-tailored Inheritance Bead Set, that this test was needed. And even then, it was mostly a preliminary assessnt.
To want a detailed assessnt for soone with a re seventeen Spirit Root points of ordinary aptitude... that would be far too difficult.
...
The group of six left the Guest Welcoming Hall, passed through a series of grand halls, and arrived at the hall Zhang Deming had entered on his first visit to Spirit Nurturing Peak—the Source Pearl Hall.
Zhang Deming looked at the great hall, slightly stunned.
’So that giant sphere in the middle of the hall is the treasured artifact of Spirit Nurturing Peak—the Celestial Eye Peeping Source Pearl?’
’The very thing that Spirit Nurturing Peak has been trying to nurture Spiritual Wisdom in all these years?’
The group had walked over at a leisurely pace. By the ti they arrived, Song Huidong was already waiting there.
When he saw the group approach, he said to Gan Zili, "Disciple has allocated the Spirit Stones, but Martial Uncle Sect Leader said he would deliver them personally."
Zhang Deming’s brow furrowed slightly. ’Spirit Nurturing Peak can’t even co up with ten thousand Spirit Stones for a routine allocation?’
’That can’t be right. With so many tycoon clients, they can’t possibly be a poor peak!’
Before Zhang Deming could ponder it further, several figures flew over in a hurry.
Seeing the arrivals, Zhang Deming was slightly taken aback.
The current Sect Leader, Dang Jun’an;
The head of the Resources Departnt, the slightly plump Yang Longying;
The head of the Miscellaneous Affairs Departnt, the honest-looking Fan Qingyong;
The head of the Law Enforcent Team, the cold Zhou Jiuyan;
The four n he had seen before in the Celestial Spirit Hall had all arrived, and each of them had a child, big or small, by their side.
’Are they... here to freeload?’
Seeing this scene, a guess flashed through Zhang Deming’s mind.
Gan Zili wasn’t surprised by this at all. He had known this would be the outco the mont he sent his Disciple to allocate the Spirit Stones.
He also knew that today, the Spirit Stones wouldn’t have to co out of Spirit Nurturing Peak’s accounts. Soone else would be fighting to pay for it. In any case, this had pretty much been the situation for years.
