Tomb raiding: following the plot while tearing up the script

Wu Xie also found what seemed to be weapons prepared specifically for himself: a short dagger and a long sword about the length of his arm, gleaming with a dark luster.

"Wow..." How could a real man resist the allure of a cold weapon, especially such a cool one?

Wu Xie even felt so arrogant that he thought the precious sword in his hand was even cooler than Zhang Qiling's Black Gold Ancient Sword!

"Huh? Little Sweetie, you guys have already learned how to use rings???"

As soon as Su Li entered, she saw Wu Xie and Fatty Wang staring blankly at their respective belongings, and called out to them.

"Hey, what's wrong with Little Ali? Did you catch the rabbit's infection?" Black Bear, who was lying on the beanbag chair, teased Su Li about her red eyes.

The child clearly had been crying; his eyes and nose were red, which stood out starkly against his fair and delicate face.

However, she seemed to be in a good mood, walking with a bouncy and carefree attitude.

Blackie was very satisfied. He remembered when he first met him, he was a shy, timid boy who liked to daydream. Look at him now, so lively! Blackie did a great job teaching him!

If Xie Yuchen knew what Hei Xiazi was thinking, he would definitely not hesitate to pick up the Dragon Pattern Staff and drag Zhang Qiling along for a mixed doubles beating.

Ah Li's style only started to go astray after she went out with him. This black guy still has the nerve to be proud?

"Ah Li and Master Yunqing have finished talking?" Xie Yuchen put a cushion over Hei Xiazi's head and waved to Su Li.

Su Li, who was obsessed with good looks, naturally rushed into the arms of her beloved Hua Hua and happily sat down next to Xie Yuchen.

"What are you holding?" Xie Yuchen noticed the large black and gold compass in his hands, with a transparent pearl inlaid in the center.

Su Li placed the items on her lap to show them.

"The Spirit Testing Plate was originally only used to test spiritual root attributes, but Senior Brother improved it. Now it can not only test spiritual root attributes, but also detect personal talents."

Senior Brother is truly the most powerful weapon refiner in the entire cultivation world!!! Junior Brother gives a thumbs up.

As she spoke, Su Li began to demonstrate how to use it to everyone.

A bluish-green spiritual energy flowed into the compass from the central pearl, and the runes on the entire compass lit up one by one as the spiritual energy was poured in.

Su Li stopped transmitting spiritual energy only after illuminating all the array patterns on the compass.

He then placed his hand on the transparent jewel in the center without using any spiritual power.

A flash of light appeared from the pearl, and the cyan-green spiritual energy that had just been channeled into it transformed into transparent threads that emanated from the pearl and wrapped around the hand that covered it.

In less than five minutes, the silk threads dissipated, turning into specks of starlight that condensed above the compass.

'Top-grade single wood spirit root'

Spiritual root compatibility 100

Talents: Array Master, Forget-Worry Physique, Break Through Miasma

"Wow……"

Wu Xie, Wang Pangzi, and Hei Xiazi simultaneously exclaimed in astonishment, as if they had never seen anything like it before.

Wu Xie and Wang Pangzi both looked at Hei Xiazi, who had the same expression as them, as if to say, "What are you surprised about? Isn't this our job as newbies?"

Black Bear grinned slyly. "I'm happy to oblige. This is called showing support, you know?"

Su Li looked at the contents of the spirit-testing disc and found that it was indeed much more detailed and accurate than the one she had received when she first became an apprentice.

Senior brother is awesome, thumbs up!!!

"Huahua, do you want to give it a try?" Su Li looked at Xie Yuchen with bright eyes.

Once our spiritual roots are tested, we can ask Master to send over suitable cultivation techniques for everyone. I can also experience being a master and guide everyone in their cultivation!

Does this count as getting a promotion? Hehehe...

If Hua Hua doesn't want to call you "brother," just make him call you "master"!

System: What are you thinking, you little Qi cultivator?

Xie Yuchen had no idea what kind of nonsense this child was thinking. The pretty little boy was grinning like an idiot.

Following Su Li's example, she placed her hand on the transparent gem. "Like this?"

"Correct."

Su Li held the spirit-testing plate in one hand and channeled spiritual energy into it with the other.

The same light shone, and the result was displayed in a short while.

'Top-grade Water and Wood Dual Spiritual Roots'

Spiritual Root Compatibility: 97

Talents: Sound, charm and bewitching power, and the ability to accumulate merit.

苏黎：?6?1?0?1·?0?8?2?3·?0?8?0?1*?6?2?7?7?0?3?0?3

No wonder I love flowers so much!!!

The two spiritual roots of water and wood! ! ! !

A water-elemental wood elemental! Two elemental roots—one the same wood elemental root as herself, and the other the water elemental root that's most favorable to her. My chosen one, Hua Hua!!!

"Hey, what kind of title is 'bewitching' for me, Master Hua'er? Daji?" Hei Xiazi got excited when he saw Xie Yuchen's talent description and came over like a big dog, acting like a jerk.

Compared to everyone else present, Su Li was practically a walking encyclopedia of the cultivation world. She pinched Hei Xiazi's mouth shut to prevent him from speaking and explained things to Xie Yuchen.

"Sound and affinity bewitching should be the research direction of the Word Sect. It is a kind of Word Spirit, which is somewhat similar to but also different from Word Spirit. Hua Hua should be suitable for the path of sound cultivation and Word Spirit."

Moreover, Hua Hua is blessed with good fortune and has excellent luck, so it's safe to say she has virtually no taboos!

With innocent, envious eyes, the puppy exclaimed, "Wow, Xiaohua, you sound so amazing!!!"

"Who's coming next?"

"Waaaaah..." Black Bear, whose mic was manually muted by Su Li, eagerly raised his hand. This kind of thing should have been his first time to play. Since Flower Master took the first place, he should definitely be the second!

No one else tried to take it from him. The big black rat, which was right next to Su Li, slapped its hand down onto the spirit-testing plate.

'Mutated Dark Spiritual Root (Yin)'

Spiritual Root Compatibility 100

Fire Spirit Root

Spiritual Root Compatibility Level 20

Talents: Puppet, Godslayer Bow

Su Li was a little surprised by the test results. He thought Hei Xiazi's talent would be something like controlling ghosts, but it turned out to be puppetry. Another talent was clearly related to magical artifacts.

"What does this mean, Little Ali? How come there's a fire elemental root of 20?"

Hei Xiazi was dumbfounded. Xiao Ali's spiritual root compatibility was 100, Hua'erye's was 97, and his was 100 and 20 respectively. If they were to take an average, Hei Xiazi would only have two 60s?

Su Li had a bit of a headache. How should I put it?

"The compatibility of multiple spiritual roots is usually balanced. It is rare to see such a large difference in compatibility. The blind man should have originally had both dark and fire spiritual roots, but he was affected by Bao Yun's yin energy for many years. His dark spiritual root mutated and also suppressed his fire spiritual root."

"Hiss, so what impact will this have on blind people?"

Su Li shook her head. "Probably not. We were supposed to have you learn ghost-controlling techniques from your third senior brother, but it looks like Master will have to find you another method. Puppetry! How cool!!!"

Thinking of a puppeteer he met on the battlefield, whose puppet threads could not only control the puppets he created, but also the bodies of creatures from other realms—this ability was incredibly tempting!

Hmm... aside from the fact that he always looks at me like I'm a puppet, making me want to stay far away from him...

He's pretty handsome everywhere else...
