So what if I'm useless? I'll become a saint!

Mr. Weng turned his gaze to Chen Yan, a kind smile appeared on his face, and he spoke slowly.

"Second place, Chen family, Chen Yan!"

"One hundred and fifty ordinary spirit beads, one foundation building second level spirit bead, one foundation building eighth level fire phoenix spirit bead, and one foundation building peak golden phoenix feather beast spirit bead!"

Hearing this, everyone took a deep breath!

The spiritual bead of the second level of foundation building!

The spiritual bead of the eighth level of foundation building!

There is even the spirit bead of the golden phoenix-feathered beast at the peak of foundation building!

Such fruitful results can only be ranked second?

How incredible is the first place result?

Especially with the current results, the first place is Ling Jiuan.

A useless person without any spiritual roots won first place?

For a moment, everyone looked at Ling Jiuan with complicated expressions...

They began to wonder what kind of results they would need to achieve in order to surpass such a powerful Chen Yan.

When the head of the Chen family heard the result, he was so excited that he slapped his son on the shoulder, his face full of pride.

"Good boy, you brought honor to your father!"

For him, the ranking is no longer important at this time.

Just the precious spiritual beads that his son obtained were enough to make him feel proud!

These spirit beads not only represent Chen Yan's strength and luck, but also represent the glory of the Chen family in the secret trial.

This means that their Chen family will have successors!

Chen Yan felt a little embarrassed by his father's praise and scratched his head.

"Dad, I'm just lucky."

If he hadn't followed Ling Jiuan, he wouldn't even be able to make it into the top five.

But he should say these things to his father in private!

So as not to cause trouble to Ling Jiuan!

Ling Jiuan took first place. I wonder how many people will find him a thorn in the eyes and a thorn in the flesh!

The Chen family disciples behind him looked at the spirit pearl in Chen Yan's hand and felt somewhat regretful.

If they had chosen to follow Ling Jiuan and Chen Yan, perhaps their ranking would be higher now.

But there is no medicine for regret in this world, they can only sigh in secret!

At this moment, everyone's eyes were once again focused on the stage, waiting for Mr. Weng to announce the most anticipated first place.

Ling Jiuan's expression remained indifferent, as if he didn't care about the upcoming honor.

Ling Jiurong stared at Ling Jiuan, complex emotions flashing in her eyes.

the first?

This girl who had been forgotten by her family for many years and was once thought to have no spiritual roots, now stood out in the trial and won the first place.

How can this be?

She thought back to her brother, the man with first-class spiritual roots and talents. He was the most dazzling future heir to the head of Chenzhou. No matter when and where, he could always attract everyone's attention.

And what about yourself?

He only has ordinary spiritual roots, ordinary talent, and a weak body.

Whenever she thought of this, Jiurong felt filled with resentment.

Why is it that Ling Jiuan, a child of the same mother, has such incredible abilities while she herself can only remain unknown?

She subconsciously clenched her palms, and waves of pain came from her fingertips, but it was not as great as the pain in her heart.

However, despite her reluctance, Ling Jiurong couldn't help but feel a little relieved.

Ling Jiuan seemed to be the child her mother had risked her life to give birth to. Now that she had shown such talent, it meant that her mother's life had not been lost in vain.

Her sacrifice seemed to be rewarded at this moment.

Over the years, she was always sad that her mother tried so hard to give birth to Ling Jiuan, but Ling Jiuan turned out to be a waste.

For a moment, Jiurong was overwhelmed with thoughts.

She didn't know how she should deal with this sudden change, and she didn't know how she should view this sister who had once been neglected.

Her heart was full of contradictions and struggles, and she couldn't figure out what to do.

She turned to look at her father Ling Changfeng, hoping to find some guidance from his eyes.

However, Ling Changfeng was staring intently at Ling Jiuan on the stage at this time, with pride and pride flashing in his eyes.

He didn't seem to notice his daughter's mixed emotions.

Ling Jiurong took a deep breath, trying to calm her inner turmoil.

She knew that no matter how unwilling she was, the facts could not be changed.

She needs to accept this reality and find her own way.

Perhaps, she can also shine with her own light like Ling Jiuan one day in the future.

She is also her mother's daughter, how can she be a waste?

Mr. Weng looked at Ling Jiuan with a burning gaze, his eyes flashing with excitement that was difficult to conceal.

He took a deep breath and announced loudly.

"First place, Ling Jiuan from the Ling family! One hundred and ninety-five ordinary spirit beads, one fourth-level foundation-building spirit bead, and one second-level golden elixir water monster crystal!"

As soon as the words fell, there was an uproar at the scene.

Jindan period!

Water monster!

These shocking words were like a bombshell, causing huge waves in everyone's hearts.

Everyone was shocked by this result. They couldn't believe that this girl who had no spiritual roots and was only in the body training stage could actually get the magic crystal of the water monster in the golden elixir stage.

“A well-deserved first place!”

"It's incredible! How did she do this without any spiritual roots?"

……

Mr. Weng looked at Ling Changfeng with a gentle smile on his face.

"Master Ling, every generation has its own talented people, the Ling family has a successor!"

Ling Changfeng bowed to Mr. Weng to express his gratitude.

"Thank you for the compliment, sir."

His face was filled with pride and joy, but more of it was a sense of relief.

He subconsciously looked at Ling Jiuan, with endless excitement and emotion in his eyes.

"Jiuan..."

He whispered his daughter's name softly, with an indescribable emotion welling up in his heart.

Yes, this is their daughter, this is the pride in his heart!

At this moment, Ling Jiuan was standing on the stage, his expression still indifferent and calm.

When Ling Jiurong heard the result, she felt an indescribable complex emotion in her heart.

She clenched her palms, her fingertips turning white from excessive force, as if she wanted to pour all her resentment and anger into these clenched fists.

She almost bit her teeth to pieces, the shock and jealousy in her heart intertwined into a strong emotional storm.

"how is this possible?"

She murmured, disbelief evident in her voice.

Ling Jiuan, this waste, is now standing at the pinnacle of glory. How can she accept such a reality?

Did she lose?

At the same time, Ling Jiuze also stared at Ling Jiuan, his eyes full of fear.

He couldn't imagine that this seemingly weak girl could actually kill the water monster!

How exactly did she do it?

For a moment, his heart was in turmoil, and his opinion of Ling Jiuan changed completely.

After announcing the results, Mr. Weng handed a storage bag to Ling Jiuan.

"Miss Ling Wu, this is your reward, please keep it."

"Thank you sir."

Ling Jiuan took it and thanked him respectfully.

Mr. Weng nodded with satisfaction.

Obviously, Ling Jiuan was quite satisfied.

As for the spirit beads obtained in the secret realm, they will be returned to the disciples who participated in the trial after the trial results are announced.

In Ling Jiuan's storage bag, in addition to his own spiritual beads, there was also a top-grade magic sword and a book on swordsmanship.

There were some other things, but Ling Jiuan didn't look at them carefully. He put them away and walked towards Lei Tingyi.

"You haven't left yet?"

Lei Tingyi glanced at her.

"Why should I leave?"

Ling Jiuan smiled without saying anything. She remembered that Lei Tingyi stayed at the beginning because his spiritual power had not recovered.

Now that his spiritual power has recovered, it is only a matter of time before he leaves.

However, Ling Jiuan didn't intend to bring up the matter. After all, as long as he stayed, she would always have a free master available.

Lei Tingyi glanced at her indifferently.

Ling Jiuan met his gaze calmly.

"I just asked casually."

Anyway, everyone is mutually beneficial, so she has nothing to feel guilty about.

Lei Tingyi chuckled lightly and turned his head away from her.

Ling Jiuxi had already returned to the Ling family because she was too embarrassed for not getting first place. She rushed all the way to Madam Lan's yard and started complaining.

"Mother, I want to kill Ling Jiuan!"

Mrs. Lan glanced at her daughter and scolded her in a low voice.

"Don't be so impatient, be careful, the walls may have ears!"

Although the boss is not in the Ling family, she cannot guarantee that the Ling family does not have the boss's spies.

Ling Jiuxi wanted to speak again, but was glared back by Madam Lan.

"If you are not as skilled as others, study hard and practice diligently. Don't lose your temper all the time."

Ling Jiuxi didn't get the result he wanted, and returned to his yard in a rage.

Mrs. Lan fiddled with the teacup in her hand, a cold gleam in her eyes.
