"Ah~~~" Lin Xiaolu's scream kept going on, and the elders on the high platform continued to give their evaluation:
"This Lin Xiaolu is so young, yet he screams with such powerful lungs, his screams are as loud as a pig being slaughtered, endless, he is surely extraordinary."
"That's right, I could tell from his aura that his cultivation at the same age is definitely rare in this world."
"Let's stop talking, this guy is definitely formidable!"
At the White Jade Platform, everyone was closely watching the boy's scream, all looking forward to him demonstrating his spiritual energy, only Li Miaoxin and Li Yaoxi looked at Lin Xiaolu on the platform with strange expressions.
"Ah ah ah ah~~~"
The tender scream went on, after a long time, some people gradually felt something was wrong, why isn't this guy releasing his spiritual energy yet?
The host who was closely watching Lin Xiaolu was also confused, not knowing what this little fist-clenching, screaming kid was yelling about.
On the high platform, Ye Qingluan also looked at the little boy below, with a hesitant expression: "Why has he been screaming for so long?"
Zhao Xuanyi thought about it briefly: "He probably has such high talent that he is holding his ultimate move now, getting ready to release it all at once."
"Ah ah ah ah ah~~~"
Lin Xiaolu screamed until his little face turned red, his whole body couldn't help but start trembling slightly, finally he screamed with all his might, then started coughing loudly.
"Cough cough cough cough, yelled for so long in one breath, nearly screamed grandpa to death."
Everyone: ???
Whether it was the elders and sect leader on the high platform, or the little disciples below, or the host, everyone had a confused look on their faces.
What was this guy doing?
In the arena, Lin Xiaolu took a deep breath again, then started screaming again!
"Ah ah ah ah ah~~~"
At this moment, everyone finally had a weird look on their faces, this kid had been screaming intermittently for a minute already!
Elder Fang Wuxiu on the high platform finally lost patience, he stood up and scolded the screaming child below: "Stop screaming! Hurry up and release your spiritual energy!"
Upon hearing this, the screams stopped abruptly, and Lin Xiaolu also raised his head, looking at the elders and sect leader on the high platform with innocent wide eyes:
"But I don't have any spiritual energy."
Everyone: ......
Whether it was the elders, disciples, or sect leader, everyone who heard this showed a shocked expression, stunned like idiots.
"Pfft~"
Li Mingru who was drinking at his seat couldn't help but laugh out loud. He looked at the confused elders and laughed: "Gentlemen, surprised or not? Unexpected or not? My disciple is meant to baffle you, meant to astonish you!"
Hearing Li Mingru's words, the elders' expressions immediately turned extremely ugly, they felt like they had been toyed with!
So this guy couldn't cultivate at all!
At this moment, the elders were all glaring at Lin Xiaolu, feeling extremely ashamed for praising and admiring him when he was screaming earlier.
Zhao Xuanyi from the Nine Infants Branch even slapped his armrest and stood up, yelling at the child below: "If you have no spiritual energy why were you screaming like that!"
The children below the White Jade Platform were also completely confused.
Brother Lu actually had no spiritual energy?
He was actually an ordinary person?
The children were also completely baffled, staring at the boy on the platform with their mouths open.
All this time they had thought Lin Xiaolu must be very powerful, after all, Chen Nianyun who had learned the mystic arts was beaten by him until begging for mercy.
But in the end, Brother Lu was still an ordinary person? How could this be?
At this moment, many elders on the high platform were glaring at Lin Xiaolu. Thinking about how they had just praised him to the skies when he was screaming, they wished they could find a hole to crawl into right now.
Lin Xiaolu put his hands behind his back, raised his head and humphed at the elders: "I saw everyone who went up would scream loudly, so I just followed and screamed loudly too. How was it, wasn't my scream the most heroic?"
"Heroic? Heroic your grandpa! Damn it!"
The elders from the various branches were extremely angry, they didn't directly reprimand this little bastard only because they had to keep face as elders, otherwise they would have rushed down and hung him up to beat him long ago.
At this moment, these elders were all glaring at Lin Xiaolu with blown beards and staring eyes.
"Alright alright!"
Fang Wuxiu, the elder with the highest seniority, spoke expressionlessly: "Since Mingru junior brother's disciple has not reached the first layer of Qi Condensation, follow the rules and revoke his inner sect disciple status, send him to the outer sect to cultivate."
Ye Qingluan, wearing embroidered shoes, sat on the sect leader's throne, eating sugarcane, spitting out the chewed sugarcane husks in her palm. Looking at the boy below, there was a hint of reluctance in her eyes.
What an interesting little fellow, just a pity he has no talent for cultivation.
Just as she was about to give the order, Li Mingru suddenly spoke plainly:
"Sect Leader, my disciple is an ordinary mortal, destined to be unable to cultivate, but he is a good seedling in martial arts, his kung fu is not bad, and he can endure hardship, already unmatched among his peers. I humbly request the Sect Leader to make an exception for him to continue being an inner sect disciple."
Hearing this, Ye Qingluan was startled for a moment, looking at Li Mingru in surprise.
She had known Li Mingru for over two hundred years, with one look she knew what he was thinking.
Her eyes were saying: Li Mingru, are you serious? Letting a martial artist become my Emei inner sect disciple? Are you not teasing this Sect Leader?
Before Ye Qingluan could speak, the other elders laughed out loud:
"As expected of Elder Brother Mingru, always playing around, letting a worthless martial arts practitioner become an inner sect disciple, Li Mingru, is your brain okay?"
"Hahahaha, I have to hand it to you, inner sect disciples have an esteemed status in Emei, able to enjoy quality resources, monthly spirit food, artifacts, pills, talismans, spirit stones, these are all consumables as precious as gold and silver.
We Emei put in great efforts to nurture inner sect disciples for them to serve Emei in the future, to become Emei's pillars. But what can a martial artist do? Any random Qi Condensation six or seven layer disciple can annihilate all those mundane martial arts sects.
Li Mingru, you want Emei to put in great efforts to nurture a worthless person? What are you thinking!"
At this moment, Li Mingru was being pointed at by everyone, even Elder Qi Guan and Elder Zhangmobai who were on good terms with him did not speak up for him this time.
It wasn't that they didn't want to speak, but that what the other elders said, although blunt, was the truth after all.
How could martial artists be compared to cultivators?
These two were simply not of the same world!
As the elders mocked, their words were also heard loud and clear by Lin Xiaolu below the platform, making him unconsciously clench his little fists tighter.
Not only on the platform, but the children below were also discussing spiritedly. Dong Fang Dan, Tang Hanqing and a few others were fine, but the other children could no longer hold back:
"I thought Lin Xiaolu was so amazing, turns out he can't even cultivate, I'm so embarrassed I kept calling him Brother Lu."
"Right, let's withdraw from the Law-Abiding Gang when we get back."
"Lin Xiaolu definitely won't be an inner sect disciple anymore, we're destined to not be of the same world from now on."
"That's right, I'd rather take Xiao Yuer as our boss, after all Xiao Yuer has truly reached the fifth layer of Qi Condensation, Lin Xiaolu is just an ordinary person."
Yu Chuchu even sneered coldly at Chen Nianyun: "Brother Nianyun, how about we go bully Lin Xiaolu every day after he becomes an outer sect disciple?"
Hearing this, Chen Nianyun fell silent, not saying anything for the moment.
Yu Chuchu then continued laughing: "He probably can't beat us anymore. After all Brother Nianyun you're at the third layer of Qi Condensation, I'm also at the second layer now. Hmph, after the test ends I'm going to find him and take revenge!"
