Chapter 298: Talent is Worthless After Death

"Why am I being called back again? Is there still a spot for me somehow?" With a trace of doubt in his heart, Li Fan returned to Tianyu City.

After some thought, instead of heading directly to the Huan Yu Courtyard, Li Fan first went to a Tianxuan Mirror and entered his exclusive space within the Tianxuan Mirror.

At this time, his clone in the Cong Yun Sea paused his practice of the "Creation Forge Art" and began searching for Heavenly Treasures that could enhance his perception of the soul.

One after another, information on these Heavenly Treasures appeared.

After browsing for a while, Li Fan selected a high-grade Human Treasure, the Ghost Hairpin. Then he sent the Ghost Hairpin into the White Bone Realm.

The main body immediately performed the ritual and absorbed the Heavenly Treasure in the White Bone Realm.

[Truth] slowly transformed in his dantian, becoming both the Seven Aperture Exquisite Heart and Ghost Hairpin.

After completing all this, Li Fan returned to reality and hurried towards the Huan Yu Courtyard.

By using the Ghost Hairpin, Li Fan naturally hoped to increase his chance of identifying Soul Contracts.

The reason why Li Fan didn't do this during the closed training before was due to concerns about his own safety.

It was likely that the Huan Yu Courtyard was under surveillance at all times.

If originally, his performance was mediocre, but after exchanging for a Heavenly Treasure, his performance gradually improved... he might attract others' attention.

There was no need to take this risk.

However, outside the courtyard, within the Tianxuan Mirror, there were fewer concerns.

At least, from the current situation, the Tianxuan Mirror could still be trusted temporarily.

When Li Fan entered the Huan Yu Courtyard again, there was no chain formation test; instead, he appeared directly in front of Ji Hongdao.

"Greetings, senior!" Li Fan bowed.The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))

"Hmm, so soon?" Ji Hongdao was a bit surprised. "At least you can avoid any further complications." He sighed, looking somewhat weary.

"May I ask what happened, senior?" Li Fan asked.

"Ah, it's hard to explain in a few words." As Ji Hongdao redistributed a Huan Yu Token to Li Fan and led him to meet Huangfu Song, he explained the reason Li Fan was summoned back.

"What? Tantai Tao and a dozen others went out to relax, encountered an accident, and died?" Li Fan thought he had misheard, staring at Ji Hongdao in astonishment.

It's not surprising that Li Fan was so startled because this was too absurd.

Tantai Tao was the most outstanding among all the cultivators during training.

As early as the first assessment, he received two top evaluations.

Moreover, his identification rate of Soul Contracts reached an astonishing one hundred percent.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that such a figure would surely achieve extraordinary accomplishments in the future.

"It doesn't matter if you talk nonsense, but if someone takes it seriously..."

"Those guys all had connections and power."

"Even Guan Xingxiu was suspended from his position. I'm even more at risk." Ji Hongdao impatiently said, "Let's stop talking."

Ji Hongdao's position was obviously higher than Huangfu Song's. When he spoke like this, Huangfu Song indeed shut up.

"You should wait in the courtyard first."

"Another Soul Gathering Pearl has been prepared for you. Don't slack off during this time, and try to comprehend." He instructed Li Fan again.

"Thank you, senior." Li Fan thanked him.

Ji Hongdao waved his hand, and Li Fan returned to the familiar courtyard once again.

However, it was hard to say if it was the same room as before.

"Guan Xingxiu."

Recalling Huangfu Song's words, Li Fan's heart stirred, and he began searching for information about Guan Xingxiu.

"Commander of the Tianyu Province Garrison Court..."

"One of the candidates for the next Supreme Commander of the Garrison Court."

Li Fan narrowed his eyes, pondering. The so-called accident was almost certainly a pretext. However one looked at it, this matter exuded the smell of conspiracy.

"Immortal Sage Jicheng is stepping down from his post as the Supreme Commander of the Garrison Court."

"I'm afraid the competition for this position has reached a fever pitch."

"At this critical moment, such a major case occurred in Guan Xingxiu's jurisdiction, leading to his suspension..."

"It seems that some people have gone a bit crazy for this position of Supreme Commander."

"Hmm...that's not right."

"The method of framing is too crude, and it can be seen through at a glance. So it's also possible that Guan Xingxiu himself is playing pig to eat a tiger."

"First, withdraw from the center of the storm, fade from view. Then, catch the opponent off guard and win by surprise."

"Of course, it's also possible that the opponent is taking advantage of this mentality to blatantly frame him."

"No matter what the truth is, these so-called geniuses like Tantai Tao, in front of the real wielders of power in the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, were easily crushed and turned into a means of attacking political opponents."

"No matter how high your talent is..."

"Once you die, it's all for naught."

Li Fan sighed inwardly and took out the golden Soul Gathering Pearl, skillfully extracting a strand of soul.
