Chapter 193: Supreme Grade Talent, Unprecedented

As Su Zhan took his steps forward, the sixteen elders and the nearly one thousand geniuses from various places all watched intently, not daring to blink. They were eager to know what made Su Zhan so special that a Saint King would actively take him as a disciple.

No!

It wasn't just active disciple-taking Tang Wujian's tone just now had been pleading.

Moreover, the conditions Tang Wujian had stated had shocked them immensely. One could say that Tang Wujian was practically begging Su Zhan to be his disciple, rather than the other way around.

To make a Saint King, someone of such high status, humble himself to such an extent and disregard his own dignity just to take someone as his disciple what kind of talent did Su Zhan possess?

Beside the pillar, Ye Kuang's thoughts aligned with the crowd's. He also couldn't understand why Tang Wujian would treat Su Zhan with such an attitude.

However, compared to those who were merely spectating, Ye Kuang's feelings were a mix of confusion, anger, and jealousy. Seeing Su Zhan walking over, he rose from the ground and stepped aside, meeting Su Zhan's gaze.

"Su Zhan! Although I don't know why Saint King Wujian values you so highly, I don't believe your talent can surpass mine! Before long, beneath the talent pillar, your true abilities will be exposed! Perhaps, Saint King Wujian will change his mind about taking you as his disciple, and then you'll become a laughingstock!" Ye Kuang seethed with resentment.

Su Zhan glanced at Ye Kuang. "Don't wait until later. Right now, I find you quite laughable."

"You!"

"Just move aside. Good dogs don't block the way. Are you a bad dog?"

"Of course not!"

"Oh, so you're a good dog."

"You how dare you mock me!"

Ye Kuang was furious, but when he sensed Tang Wujian looking coldly in his direction from not far away, his body trembled and he quickly stepped aside, making way.

A pair of eyes, brimming with jealousy and hatred, watched as Su Zhan entered the area between the four pillars.

As Su Zhan activated the Celestial Sun God Scripture, the inscriptions on the four pillars brightened. In an instant, he felt a peculiar energy entering his body.

This energy didn't possess any aggressive qualities, but it gave him a strange sensation as if he was being seen through. Even the divine body within him was set in motion!

The first pillar instantly lit up.

A faint starlight began to emanate from Su Zhan's body.

Seeing this scene, many people displayed expressions of surprise and doubt.

Just at that moment, thirty-six golden dragon veins appeared on Su Zhan's body!

"Buzz!"

Even the stone pillars, which had been forged into saint artifacts, began to buzz and tremble!

The surface of the pillars was flashing with intense golden light, seemingly reaching its limit.

In the next moment, under the awestruck gazes of everyone present, four beams of golden light shot up from the four pillars. They pierced the heavens!

The Body Refinement Elder gazed at the four beams of golden light that shot skyward, his entire being a bit dazed. He said in a dazed manner, "I think, perhaps in the future, we can establish a new tier of innate talent above peak grade'called Supreme'!"

The Sword Elder chuckled bitterly, "There's no need for that, because this is an innate talent tier that belongs solely to Su Zhan!"

"Exactly, it's just too extravagant. I've cultivated for hundreds of years and have seen many prodigies, but someone like Su Zhan is truly a first!"

"No wonder, no wonder Senior Tang was so eager to take Su Zhan as his disciple! Such a heaven-defying and monstrous genius, I'm afraid even the Holy Master would have to put in a lot of effort to take him as a disciple, right?"

"Just earlier, I heard Senior Tang and Su Zhan talking about the matter of the Holy Son, with Senior Tang acting as if Su Zhan was destined to become a Holy Son. I thought Senior Tang was being overly certain; after all, the selection criteria for the Holy Son are extremely strict, and even for a divine body, it's only an opportunity at best! But now, seeing Su Zhan's talent, I realize how laughable my previous thoughts were!"

"If even Su Zhan can't become the Holy Son, then who in this world would qualify?"

"Speaking of which, I suddenly have a misconception now when compared to Su Zhan, Ye Kuang seems to have become utterly mediocre in an instant"

"Elder Qing, that's not a misconception. In front of Su Zhan, Ye Kuang truly can't even be considered as anything!"

One after another, the elders expressed their astonishment.

Ye Kuang stared fixedly at Su Zhan, his ears catching those words, feeling an extreme sense of shame. He clenched his fists so tightly that his nails dug into his palms, drawing blood, yet he hardly noticed.

After a few seconds, as the talent assessment pillars slowly returned to calm, preparing for the testing of the specialized talents of the sixteen disciplines, Ye Kuang took a deep breath and tried to calm his emotions.

Formidable talent in cultivation doesn't explain everything!

After all, he possessed extraordinary talents in Sword Dao, high-grade Body Refinement, high-grade Spiritual Power, and a good portion of his other talents were at the medium-grade!

If Su Zhan only excelled in cultivation but had a mediocre specialized talent, then Ye Kuang wouldn't consider himself defeated! With this thought in mind, Ye Kuang felt a bit better, a glimmer of hope rekindling within him.

However, shortly after, as Su Zhan's testing of the sixteen specialized talents began, and Ye Kuang saw the scene before him, the hope he had painstakingly nurtured was once again shattered.
