“Ah… this is not right, not right at all! The Awakening Tower is actually changing!”


    “I told you that Lin Feng looked like a clever kid, and it seems he’s not one to awaken without spiritual roots.”


    “…”


    Those who had mocked him earlier were now changing their tune.


    Looking in the direction of the Spirit Awakening Tower, their faces were filled with surprise and envy.


    After all, not every cultivator’s child could awaken their spiritual roots.


    Even if Lin Feng had only awakened the lowest-level five-element ordinary spiritual roots, he could still cultivate.


    At the very least, he could continue to stay in the cultivation world.


    Chen Chong, who was standing near the Spirit Awakening Tower, finally cracked a smile.As long as Lin Feng had spiritual roots, he could still be considered to have opened the door to sess.


    Just then, a faint, weak red light appeared on the surface of the Spirit Awakening Tower.


    It was indeed a single-colored ordinary spiritual root!


    “Ordinary spiritual roots, that’s not unexpected. I wonder how many elements it has?”


    As the first person to awaken in this session, everyone was curious again.


    Su Jingzhen and Luo Yuebai, who were standing far away, also cast curious nces.


    After the weak red light appeared on the Spirit Awakening Tower, strange phenomena began to emerge in the void around the tower.


    In the next instant, everyone in the entire square could feel the energy surging in the void in front of the tower.


    A golden aura flowed, but it didn’t take on a specific shape.


    This represented the presence of metal attributes in Lin Feng’s spiritual roots.


    In the next instant, a vital energy emerged, but it still didn’t take on a specific shape.


    However, a moist aura followed, and then a scorching aura.


    Finally, a thick, heavy aura appeared, and none of them were missing!


    Metal, wood, water, fire, and earth – all five elements were present!


    Moreover, none of them had taken on a specific shape, which meant that all five elements were at a very weak level.


    This level was only slightly stronger than pseudo-spiritual roots.


    Without special circumstances, it would be difficult to break through to the mid-stage of Qi refinement, regardless of which element’s cultivation method was used.


    When the Spirit Awakening Tower returned to its calm state, Chen Jinshi, who was standing at the gate, smiled and said:


    “Congrattions, you’ve awakened your spiritual roots.”


    “Although it’s not that great, it’s still not bad that you’ve awakened.


    “You cane out now.”


    Chen Jinshi’s face still wore a warm and gentle smile as he spoke.


    “Thank you, sir!”


    Lin Feng’s face was filled with excitement, andpared to his previous tension, as long as he had awakened his spiritual roots, it was already enough for him.


    After Lin Feng, the over 100 children from Cuiliu School also entered the Spirit Awakening Tower one by one.


    However, most of the children who enteredter did not achieve the same results as Lin Feng.


    About two hourster, all 107 children from Cuiliu School had finished their spiritual awakening.


    Adding Lin Feng, only a total of five children had awakened their five-element ordinary spiritual roots.


    Fourteen children had only triggered a weak red light on the Spirit Awakening Tower, but without any other phenomena, indicating that their spiritual roots were pseudo-spiritual roots, just like Yan Xia’s.


    This result was somewhat disappointing and worrying for Chen Chong.


    He had never thought that Lin Feng, who was used as a good start, would end up with the best result in Cuiliu School with his five-element ordinary spiritual roots.


    Although this situation was extremely normal, considering the vast world and therge number of people, it was not umon for a Dao Companion to have ten or eight children, and if each of them could awaken their spiritual roots and be cultivators, the cultivation world would be overcrowded.


    Chen Chong understood the logic, but he had a bet with Su Jingzhen, and the current results were not looking good.


    If Su Jingzhen’s side had even a slightly better spiritual root, such as a four-element ordinary spiritual root, they would lose.


    Moreover, Chen Chong knew that Su Jingzhen’s side had Ning Yao, a clever and talented child who was bound to awaken her spiritual roots.


    Through the assassination attemptst night, they no longer believed that Su Jingzhen was just a poor and struggling teacher.


    He had special powers, and it would be difficult to eliminate him quietly.


    The n to unify the schools in Linjiang City might have to be put on hold.


    Chen Chong’s expression suddenly became unnatural.


    At this time, Chen Jinshi’s gaze happened to fall on him.


    With a warm and gentle smile on his face, he nodded slightly, as if to reassure him that everything would be alright.


    “Children, follow me, let’s go!”


    On the other side, Su Jingzhen took a deep breath and led Ning Yao and the other nine children towards the Spirit Awakening Tower.


    No matter what difficulties Chen Jinshi might pose, they would have to face them eventually.


    This time, the children who were of suitable age, excluding the 107 from Cuiliu School, were the nine from Su Jingzhen’s side.


    ording to the unwritten rules, although there would be more failures in the future, those who refused to give up would still have a chance to awaken their spiritual roots.


    But they would have to wait in line after the suitable-age children.


    This was basically an unspoken rule in the cultivation world.


    After all, these children were the fresh blood that the cultivation world needed to replenish itself.


    “Linjiang City is just a small ce, and I wanted to see the talents of these suitable-age children.”


    “But the result was only a few five-element ordinary spiritual roots, which is truly disappointing.”


    “You also know that this is just a small ce, and being able to awaken five spiritual roots is already quite good in my opinion.”


    “After all, this time, there were only over a hundred people who came to awaken their spiritual roots, and the ratio is already quite high.”


    “That’s not right, aren’t there still some children who haven’te yet?”


    “Maybe there are still some who can awaken their spiritual roots among them.”


    “…”


    There were many outsiders who hade to watch themotion.


    These people were either those who had not yet gone to Clear Wind Mountain or those who did not have enough luck and had alreadye down from the mountain.


    When they saw Su Jingzhen leading the children over, most people’s gazes were already focused on them.


    It seemed like Linjiang City’sst hope.


    When Su Jingzhen and the children arrived, Chen Jinshi’s smile became even more intense.


    Su Jingzhen knew that this guy would definitely make things difficult for him.


    But he still nned to take things one step at a time.


    If he couldplete the spiritual awakening ceremony for these children smoothly, that would be the best.


    However, before he could say anything, Chen Jinshi’s gaze suddenly shifted away from them.


    He didn’t even nce at them.


    Instead, he turned to those who had failed to awaken their spiritual roots in the past and said:


    “Those who failed to awaken their spiritual roots in the past but still want to try again, please step forward.”


    “After submitting ten low-grade spirit stones, you can try again!”


    People like Yan Xia, who had been waiting for a long time, were overjoyed and walked directly to the Spirit Awakening Tower.


    Chen Jinshi then turned to smile at Su Jingzhen again.


    “Daoist Su, the rules have changed temporarily.”


    “Perhaps you’ll have to wait a little longer.”


    “…”
