Seeing Ye Chen so anxious, Wang Lin was puzzled and hurried to catch up with Ye Chen.

Tingchao Academy, like Wang Lin's, was indeed in decline after Ye Chen approached it. Many places were unattended, and some areas were covered in dust. The cobwebs in the corners were also not cleaned.

If it were a prosperous period, it would never be like this.

Moreover, the gate of the academy was open, and the old man guarding the gate had gone somewhere unknown. There was no one guarding the academy, and Ye Chen saw some people entering and leaving the academy freely.

"Ok?"

"Why are they so disorganized? These people don't seem to be from Tingchao Academy!"

Ye Chen frowned as he looked at the clothes of these people and looked at Wang Lin. Wang Lin knew much more about Tingchao Academy than he did.

Wang Lin explained, "Sir, this Tingchao Academy has fallen into decline, but the Talent Mirror is still there. Some of the children of the aristocratic families in Jinling Immortal City who don't have the aptitude to cultivate are studying. Every once in a while, they come here to determine if they have developed talent, hoping to gain admission to the Seven Star Academy."

"The Talent Mirror is not only for the academy's students, but can be used by everyone."

As Wang Lin's voice fell, a gleam of brilliance appeared in Ye Chen's eyes. Just a moment ago, he was still worried about how to use the Talent Appraisal Mirror. Now that he knew that anyone could use it, he was instantly overjoyed.

"Come on, let's go in and take a look!"

Ye Chen was very excited and entered Tingchao Academy.

At this moment, in the academy, an old scholar was sitting there, looking lifeless.

He held a wine gourd in his hand and poured wine into his mouth from time to time. He reeked of alcohol. When the young master of a noble family approached him, he covered his nose and walked away with a look of disgust on his face.

The old scholar remained in the same state from beginning to end, as if nothing in the outside world could attract his attention.

The Jiancai Mirror was easy to find, and Ye Chen entered the hall.

At this moment, Ye Chen was carefully observing the people in front of the Jiancai Treasure Mirror. He saw that after those people calmed down, they picked up pens and wrote some articles and poems on paper, and then placed the finished works in front of the Jiancai Treasure Mirror.

At this moment, a force will appear in the talent-appraising mirror, which will suspend the work in the air, and a holy light will sweep across the work.

At this moment, Wang Lin saw Ye Chen watching and hurriedly explained: "Young Master, this operation is very simple. If the work contains talent, then the Talent Mirror will show an unusual phenomenon."

"Talent is divided into nine grades, from lowest to highest, represented by light: white, black, red, orange, yellow, green, indigo, blue, and violet."

"If a white light appears on the work, it is clearly a first-grade talent. If it is a ninth-grade talent, it is purple."

"The higher the talent tested, the higher your status after entering the Seven Star Academy."

Wang Lin explained it to Ye Chen.

"call!"

Ye Chen heard Wang Lin's explanation. At that moment, Ye Chen was very nervous. All along, those powerful people have been very concerned about his calligraphy and painting. Ye Chen felt that his works must be upright and his talent must not be weak, otherwise those people would not be so excited.

But Ye Chen didn't know how talented his work was.

To stand out from the crowd is every man's dream. Ye Chen also wants to become a powerful cultivator. If he has great talent, he will be valued by the academy.

Ye Chen looked at the people in front of him, who left one by one in disappointment. As he got closer and closer, Ye Chen's heart couldn't stop pounding.

Soon, all the people in front of Ye Chen left in disappointment, and it was finally Ye Chen's turn.

"Hoohoo!"

Ye Chen took a few deep breaths before picking up the pen in front of him. Holding the pen, he did not start writing immediately but fell into deep thought.

“Talent, talent!”

"As a science and engineering guy, I naturally can't write poetry, so I can only plagiarize. But does the plagiarized poem count as mine?"

"Will this treasure detect that it wasn't written by me?"

After holding the pen, Ye Chen became even more nervous, because at this moment he attached great importance to this test and was afraid of failure.

"Time is destiny!"

"Everything, obey the arrangements from above!"

Finally, Ye Chen made up his mind, and poems flashed through his mind. In the end, Ye Chen chose the seven-character poem.

Ye Chen chose Li Bai's "Looking at the Gate". Ye Chen understood that the tallest tree in the forest will be destroyed by the wind, otherwise he would have countless choices.

After making the decision, Ye Chen began to write.

All in one go.

"The gate is broken and the Chu River is open, the clear water flows eastward and returns here.

Green mountains on both sides face each other, and a lone sail comes from the horizon."

Ye Chen was writing very quickly at this moment. After finishing writing, he put the brush down.

He picked up his work, walked to the mirror, put it down with a worried look, and waited anxiously.

Soon, a holy light fell on Ye Chen's work from the Jiancai Treasure Mirror. The next moment, the work slowly floated up. As the holy power enveloped it, a faint halo began to emerge on Ye Chen's work.

"Ok?"

"Could it be that this person has developed talent?"

Tingchao Academy had long been deserted, but at this moment, when they suddenly saw a halo appear on Ye Chen's work, those who were waiting had a look of shock in their eyes.

The moment everyone looked at them, their faces suddenly changed color and became dazed.

At this moment, everyone saw that the light on the Jiancai Mirror was changing.

White, black, red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue and purple.

When the color on the Jiancai Mirror turned purple, everyone in Tingchao Academy was shocked.

There was a hint of disbelief in everyone's eyes.

"Purple...purple, ninth-grade talent, ninth-grade talent."

"It's ninth-grade talent, it's actually ninth-grade talent!"

In the hall, countless people exclaimed in surprise at once.

Shock appeared in everyone's eyes.

Ye Chen was also stunned. He didn't expect that he could develop ninth-grade talent.

But the next moment, in the eyes of everyone, the purple color in the Jiancai Mirror suddenly disappeared, and was replaced by a holy white light.

Ultimately, it doesn't change.

"Ok?"

"First grade, it's only first grade. Maybe there's something wrong with the Talent Mirror."

"However, first-class talent is not bad."

"Even after decades, it's rare for one to appear."

Although disappointed, the people around him still congratulated Ye Chen.

At this moment, the drunk old man also entered the hall. The smell of alcohol instantly made everyone frown.

"Talent, someone actually showed talent. Although it's only first-grade, it's still pretty good."

"Son, wait patiently, I will send your work to the Seven Star Academy." After the old man's voice fell, the old man took Ye Chen's work and left.

He was a disciple of the Seven Stars Academy, and was exiled here because of his mistakes.

"Thank you, senior!"

At this moment, Ye Chen hurriedly saluted. Although he was very surprised as to why his talent suddenly turned white, he still politely thanked him.

The old man ignored it and flew away.

However, when the old man broke through the air, several figures locked onto him and followed him silently.

"Ok?"

The moment he sensed these figures, Wang Lin's expression darkened.

"magic!"

“It’s hidden here.”

"Could it be that the young master has calculated everything and knows that these guys will spy on him?"

"Strange, why is your talent white? But that white is very strange, with a kind of incomprehensible charm. Could it be that your talent level is beyond the cognition of ordinary people?"

Wang Lin was very puzzled.
