nTranslator: 549690339

nThe spiritual rice could not be planted in the southern Ridge, and it was rare for ordinary people to see it.

nOnly the sect master would bring back a batch from the outside world every year and distribute them to the experts in the minor astral plane and above.

nOrdinary people wouldn’t even be able to see it.

nXia qingchen was so young, yet he actually recognized the spirit rice. This was truly surprising.

n“This item is too precious, I can’t accept it.” Xia qingchen returned the spirit rice.

nHe didn’t deserve a reward.

nThe most expensive thing in the world was free.

nhehe, young master Xia, you’re too kind. This is just a seed of spiritual rice. It can only be used as a toy. Manager yang smiled bitterly.

nThe spiritual rice could not be grown in Lingnan.

nEven if there was a suitable environment, it would still require a superior cultivation method.

nThere was no one in Lingnan who specialized in growing the spiritual rice. To manager yang, this seed was just a toy and had no value.

nGiving it to Xia qingchen was only a small gift.

n“Alright, I’ll remember this favor.” Xia qingchen kept retreating and helplessly accepted it. when I successfully cultivate this Dragonheart rice, I will give you some.

nManager Yang’s smile froze.

n“What kind of spiritual rice did you say this is?” He said in astonishment.

nXia qingchen replied,’Emperor-grade high-class spiritual rice, Dragonheart rice! Is it wrong?”

nHe looked at the spiritual rice in his palm again. There was no mistake, this was indeed the seed of the Dragonheart rice.

n“Hahaha … Young master Xia, please don’t joke around. This is just a normal King tier low class spiritual rice, Rouge rice.” When manager yang heard this, he laughed.

nThere were also good and bad spiritual rice.

nFrom superior to inferior, they were divided into heaven, earth, Emperor, and King levels.

nThe higher the grade of the spiritual rice, the more spiritual power it contained, and the more helpful it was to the cultivation of minor astral level and above.

nThe Dragonheart rice was a high-grade Emperor-tier, while the Rouge rice was a low-grade King-tier.

nThe difference between the two was like the distance between heaven and earth.

nHowever, the seeds of the two were indeed somewhat similar.

nIf one didn’t come into contact with the seeds of the two often, one might not be able to tell.

nIt was not strange for manager yang to admit his mistake.

n“This is really Dragonheart rice.” Xia qingchen smiled and corrected him.

nManager yang only smiled and didn’t say anything. He patted Xia qingchen’s shoulder and said, ” you are still too young and don’t understand the value of Dragonheart rice. It is a divine rice that middle star and great star level experts would fight to the death for.

nhow could the spiritual rice brought back from the guxin Hill be of such a high level? ” Manager yang shook his head.

nThere was one more thing he didn’t say.

nAll the shopkeepers in the heavenly star Hall had appraised the seed of the spiritual rice and unanimously agreed that it was Rouge rice.

nThere was no mistake.

nSeeing how certain the other party was, Xia qingchen wanted to say something but stopped himself.

nSo be it.

nAfter it was grown, he would send some spiritual rice to manager yang.

nAs for the fact that Lingnan wasn’t suitable for planting spirit rice, Xia qingchen didn’t express any opinion.

nThe spiritual rice might have certain requirements for its environment, but it was not absolute.

nIf it was carefully cultivated, it would be easy to succeed.

nIt just so happened that Xia qingchen knew quite a few methods of growing spirit rice.

n“Alright, I accept shopkeeper Yang’s kind intentions.” Xia qingchen kept the brocade box.

nManager yang felt satisfied in his heart. The reason why he came to pay a visit was naturally to establish a good relationship with Xia qingchen.

nPerhaps Xia qingchen wasn’t worth a mention, but a person who could help him kill the ghost Arhat was definitely extraordinary.

n“If young master Xia is interested in heavenly treasures, why don’t you try your luck at the heavenly star Hall in a month?” Manager yang smiled mysteriously.

n“How do you want to touch it?” Xia qingchen asked. in another month, the disciples who went to guxin Hill will return, ” manager yang said. they will bring back many rare treasures.

n“These heavenly treasures will be handed over to the heavenly star Hall, but before that, all official disciples will have the opportunity to buy them first. If you have a unique eye, you might be able to buy some priceless heavenly treasures at a low price.”

nThe ancient heart mound was a blessed land opened up by Nebula sect in the southern Ridge.

nIt used to be a thousand-year-old ancient ruin, full of essence. After a thousand years of growth, it had given birth to a considerable number of spiritual objects.

nEvery three months, the sect would organize a group of people to go and harvest.

nThe things that were picked were all of high quality.

nThis Dragonheart rice was accidentally found by the last batch of disciples in the cracks of the ruins.

nXia qingchen’s interest instantly grew.

nAccording to his plan, he would be able to break through to the major constellation stage within two months. By then, the Jade rhinoceros would no longer be able to increase its cultivation base.

nHe would need to concoct a brand new secret medicine required for the major constellation stage.

nIn addition, grudgy could also break through to the major constellation stage, so he needed to refine some special dog food for it.

nBoth of these required a lot of precious materials.

nThere might be something he needed in the batch of heavenly treasures he brought back.

n“I’ll have to trouble manager yang to tell me.” Xia qingchen expressed his gratitude.

nhaha, it’s nothing. We’re just helping each other. If you need to exchange for stars in the future, please help me at my counter. “If I’m not around, just look for Huang Ying ‘er,” manager yang said as he pushed Huang Ying’ er over.

nHuang Ying ‘er knew that manager yang was helping her.

nThis handsome Junior Brother in front of him was the master of the snow listening tower. His future achievements were limitless.

nShe was much better than her fiancé, who had been betrothed to her since she was young.

n“Junior Brother Xia, please take care of me.” Huang Ying ‘er bowed shyly and was very respectful.

nof course! Xia qingchen nodded. sure!

n“The examination is about to begin, so I won’t disturb you any longer. I wish young master Xia all the best.” Shopkeeper yang stood up and left, satisfied.

nAfter sending off the two, it was almost time for the assessment.

nXia qingchen and Yue Mingzhu arrived at the pier at the foot of the mountain.

nThis batch of newcomers had all arrived, about thirty people.

nHe waited for a moment.

nWhen the time for the assessment arrived.

nYuan chaohui came over with his hands behind his back and said with a smile, everyone, we meet again. I’m very honored to tell you that I’m in charge of the entrance examination for your batch.

nUnder normal circumstances, the disciples in charge of living and assessment were not the same person.

nHowever, because Zhang zhiyue, who was in charge of this batch’s assessment, was still seriously ill, Yuan chaohui had to take on the responsibility of presiding over the assessment.

nUpon hearing this, some people were happy, while others were sad.

nNaturally, the ones who were happy were Heng qianmo and the other disciples that Yuan chaohui had chosen.

nThe ones who were worried were naturally the newbies who were excluded and not even invited to the gathering.

nXia qingchen, on the other hand, was very calm.

nThe assessment was based on one’s personal strength, not on whether the host thought highly of them.

nI will strictly follow the sect’s rules for the next test. Those who pass will become official disciples, while those who fail will be sent back to their original places. Do you understand? ” Yuan chaohui cast a glance at Xia qingchen, intentionally or otherwise.

nIt was impossible for someone at the eighth fold of the middle constellation stage to pass tne test.

nOf course, in order to ensure that nothing went wrong, Yuan chaohui was still prepared to play a little trick.

nnow, the first round of the assessment will be a cultivation test! Yuan chaohui took out a crystal ball and placed it on the table.

nplace your palm on the testing ball and channel your inner strength into the ball to test the corresponding strength. “I’ll call out the names, so come up one by one,” Yuan chaohui said.

n“The first cross Path!”

nHearing this, Heng qianmo immediately stepped forward and placed her palm on the ball. Then, she activated her inner strength.

nThe round ball immediately turned black..
