Good fellow!
No wonder the system said " Become stronger as long as you live ". As long as you don't die, you will slowly strengthen yourself when you do something?
Su Mu thought for a moment, then picked up the teacup and took another sip.
"You drank a mouthful of tea. Water affinity 1.”
"You drank a mouthful of tea and were in a very good mood. You triggered a critical hit. Water affinity 2.”
Su Mu understood.
Although the increase was very small, even if he drank a cup of tea, it would only increase his Water Affinity by four or five points.
However, a quantitative change would lead to a qualitative change!
As long as he was alive, he could continue to become stronger.
Wasn't it to become stronger while living?
"The selection has ended!"
"There are a total of five people who passed the preliminary test. The rest will be eliminated!”
An elder from the Holy Land of Taichu announced the result calmly.
Normally, there was no need for an elder-level cultivator like him to come and select the preliminary disciples. At most, he would be led by a legacy disciple.
The huge square was filled with sighs.
There were at least three thousand people in Yanmen City who were qualified to participate in the selection, but only five people passed.
Moreover…
This was only the first test!
In the end, there might be one or two people who could stay in the Holy Land of Taichu, and it was even more likely that…one of them would not be able to stay!
The mayor of Yanmen City and the others were very calm after hearing the result.
They were already used to it.
The Northern Spiritual Realm was extremely vast. Just within the Great Yan Ancient Kingdom, there were countless cities like Yanmen City.
The five who passed the preliminary test, three men and two women, were brought to Su Mu.
"The female lead in the plot is her, right?”
His gaze paused on Gu Xiaosang for a moment.
She was indeed very beautiful. Her light-colored dress outlined her figure, which had just begun to take shape. Her skin was as smooth as ice, and her eyebrows were as beautiful as a painting.
No wonder he was chosen by the original Grand Primordium Holy Son.
As for the so-called protagonist…
Su Mu glanced at a young man in plain clothes and found that he was staring at him. After noticing his gaze, he immediately lowered his eyes and subconsciously rubbed the black ring on his hand.
Tsk, interesting.
A protagonist who was like a grandpa?
Su Mu's expression was playful. If the original plot was to develop, he would eventually die in the hands of the other party.
"Think carefully and discover some suspicious points. Comprehension 1.”
Su Mu was speechless.
This was fine?
It had to be said that it was a little ridiculous to become stronger while alive. According to this development trend, they were still worried about being killed by the " protagonist "!？
Compete in growth?
The system was really not afraid of anyone.
"Hurry up and greet the Holy Son.”The mayor of Yanmen City shouted in a deep voice.
"Greetings, Your Highness!"
The five preliminary examinees all bowed in unison.
Caleb, who was hostile to Su Mu, was no exception.
He knew very well the principle of pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger. When he was testing his aptitude just now, he had also reserved a portion of his strength and only displayed the talent of a middle-grade metal spirit root.
However, no one knew that he still had the supreme-grade fire spiritual root that his master had given him!
"Just you wait. Sooner or later, I will completely trample you under my feet!”
Caleb was secretly furious.
With the guidance of his mysterious master, the Holy Land of Taichu was nothing but a stepping stone on his path to success.
"There's no need to be so polite."
Su Mu's smile was as gentle as jade, and his black jade-like hair was dyed with golden light. There was no need to say anything more. Just by standing there, he was like a crane standing among chickens, eye-catching and dazzling.
The other woman among the five candidates had stars in her eyes.
At this moment.
Gu Xiaosang suddenly let out a breath and said respectfully,"Gu Xiaosang of the Gu family pleads to follow His Highness!”
The young girl's figure was slender and supple, her skin was smooth and fair, and her eyebrows were like a crescent moon. She was the goddess in the eyes of countless young elites in Yanmen City. She was far away and unapproachable, but at this moment, her pair of watery eyes carried a strong sense of nervousness.
Caleb turned his head abruptly and looked at her in disbelief.
“？”
Su Mu was startled for a moment, but then he laughed in his heart.
Did the plot change?
After all, this was a real world. It couldn't be completely like what was written in the novel.
"Tsk, this little girl is smart.”
"Although a high-grade water spirit root is not particularly outstanding in the Holy Land, a water spirit root is born with ice skin and jade bones.”
" She's extremely beautiful, but unfortunately, her aptitude is slightly lacking…"
A dozen elders from the Holy Land of Taichu commented with a smile.
"No!"
"I disagree!"
A loud roar suddenly sounded.
Everyone was stunned and turned to look at Caleb in unison.
Caleb strode up to Gu Xiaosang and reached out to grab her softness. His eyes were filled with affection."Xiaosang, I know you were forced! Don't worry, as long as I'm here, no one can force you to do anything you don't like!”
"Caleb, please have some self-respect!"
Gu Xiaosang frowned and took a step back. Her pretty face seemed to be covered with a layer of ice.
"Everything I do is based on my heart!”
"What do you have to do with me? You're here to criticize my choice!？”
As she spoke, she quickly stole a glance at Su Mu from the corner of her eye, afraid that she would misunderstand the relationship between the two of them.
In fact.
Her interactions with Caleb were limited to the occasional conversation they had, as well as when he had been bullied by his servants in the past, she had casually stopped him and punished them.
In Gu Xiaosang's eyes, no matter how unbearable Caleb was, he was still a member of the Gu family. How could he allow his servants to bully him?
If word got out, Caleb would not be the only one who would be embarrassed, but the Gu family as well!
"Xiaosang, you…"
Caleb's outstretched hand froze in the air. He looked at Gu Xiaosang in a daze, his eyes filled with pain and disappointment.
It was as if the white moonlight in his heart had shattered.
"Can a mere candidate for the Holy Son sever our friendship?”
"Xiaosang, do you know that this world is really big? The Holy Land of Taichu might not be much. Why don't you give me some time?”
Caleb was heartbroken. He felt that Gu Xiaosang had changed.
She stubbornly lived in the beautiful fantasy that she had weaved and blamed everything on Su Mu.
But he didn't think about it.
Gu Xiaosang was the daughter of the first wife. She had been living a luxurious life since she was young. She was beautiful and sought after by countless elites. Moreover, her cultivation aptitude was the best in the city. Why would she take a fancy to a waste born of a concubine?
Until this moment.
The stunned Gu family head finally reacted.
He could feel the cold and murderous aura of the elders and core disciples of the Holy Land of Taichu.
He was shocked and afraid, and he roared,"How dare you!" Unfilial son, do you know what you are saying?”
"Of course I know!"
Caleb glanced at him coldly.
"My good father, do you know how I've been through all these years? Even a little servant dares to bully me, just because I was born from a servant girl, just because…"
"Boring."
Suddenly, a calm voice interrupted his indignant accusation.
"I'm not interested in your family matters.”
Su Mu gently blew the leaves floating in his teacup and said indifferently," However, as a candidate for the Holy Son, I can't pretend that I didn't hear you insulting the Holy Land.”
He sipped his tea lightly, his expression indifferent.
His entire body was gradually enveloped in boundless divine light, and even his hair turned golden. It was like a furnace of heaven and earth that could refine everything in the world.
The vast life essence was like an ocean, covering half of the sky.
"Boom!"
Caleb, who was the first to bear the brunt, knelt on the ground with a bang as if he had been hit hard.
He was shocked and angry. He pushed himself against the ground with both hands and roared angrily. Blazing flames engulfed his entire body as he tried to stand up.
However, in the next moment…
An even more terrifying pressure was like a tidal wave, causing his head to smash into the ground, causing layers of cracks to appear on the high platform!
