  Chapter 204: Extraordinary Talent

 After Isaac and Victor left, the old Taoist priest called Chi Yao.

"Xiaoyao, thank you for your hard work."

Lu Jin came over and spoke.

"Old Heavenly Master, I guessed before that Huiyao was arranged by you, but I didn't expect that I guessed it right. Zhang Chulan actually won the competition and got the Heavenly Master succession!"

Tian Jinzhong said that he was quite satisfied with the strength and character shown by Zhang Chulan.

"Chu Lan's strength is actually quite good, but he is not as good as the strongest of the younger generation. The most valuable thing is Chu Lan's tenacious character."

Chi Yao glanced at the old Taoist priest and thought that under the current circumstances, he should give the old seniors a way out.

"Well, I was indeed careless at the time and didn't dodge! Zhang Chulan's attack was indeed fast enough."

"In the end, he took the attack head-on, but he was defeated before he could even resist. Zhang Chulan is really strong, and he deserves to win the championship."

As soon as Chi Yao said this, a smile appeared on the faces of several people present.

As a result, Lu Jin couldn't help it first and patted Chi Yao on the shoulder.

"Haha, old master, young people nowadays really have so many tricks. If only Linglong and the others were as smart as them, haha!"

Tian Jinzhong said with a smile.

"Hey, Xiaoyao, everyone here is our friend, we all understand."

The old Taoist priest looked towards Chi Yao, his eyes full of satisfaction.

"Xiao Yao, I saw you display the golden light in the previous match. Did you master it so quickly?"

Chi Yao nodded and started to cast the Golden Light Spell. Compared to its initial paper-thin form, the golden light was now much thicker, at least as thick as a coin.

"I can only condense this much, which is not very effective for attacking, so I used it in defensive spells, and the effect is quite good."

In the previous competition, Chi Yao mixed the golden light with magic, and the actual form could not be seen clearly. But now, the old Taoist priest saw the golden light condensed by Chi Yao, his eyes suddenly widened, and he walked forward and pinched Chi Yao's golden light with his fingers.

".It is golden light, yes, to reach this level in three days, what a talent..."

The old Taoist priest looked towards Chi Yao, his eyes gleaming with a divine light, as if he was looking at a rare treasure.

"Xiaoyao, don't you really want to consider becoming my disciple? With your ability, you can practice on your own outside the sect and just call me Master."

"Three days? Really? Old Heavenly Master, you are not lying to me, are you?" Lu Jin was shocked by what the old Heavenly Master said. In just three days, he could practice the Golden Light Curse from scratch to this level? This kind of talent is truly astonishing.

Tian Jinzhong was also frightened by the cultivation progress demonstrated by Chi Yao just now, but he finally calmed down and gave Lu Jin a wry smile.

"Brother, is it necessary for him to lie to you about this? Three days ago, I saw with my own eyes that Brother handed the book of Golden Light Mantra to Xiaoyao. I never thought that Xiaoyao could make such rapid progress in Golden Light Mantra."

The development of the situation was somewhat beyond Chi Yao's expectations. The ease with which he performed the Golden Light Spell made him ignore the meaning behind this behavior and how much of a shock it brought to the Old Taoist Priest and others.

Now thinking about it, Chi Yao felt that the key to his quick mastery of the Golden Light Mantra lay in two points.

The first is the extremely pure mana, which is brought about by the destined "stable" characteristic. It can be regarded as a benefit that comes with the profession. It is also the basic requirement of those top professions. For example, the Shadow of the Destroyer also possesses the energy of the Blue Steel Shadow to ensure the purity of its own mana.

The second is the improvement of physical potential. Previously, when Chi Yao's main attribute was increased to 20 points, he chose the physical potential rank +1 twice. The Golden Light Mantra is a method of mobilizing Qi, and practicing Qi is naturally a method of refining the body. Therefore, influenced by the bonus of physical potential rank, the talent shown by Chi Yao can be said to far exceed the concept of one person's world.

This terrifying Qi training talent might have some bonus from the world's favor, but Chi Yao couldn't be completely sure, so he didn't take it into account.

Chi Yao scratched his head and said embarrassedly.

"Master, you gave me the Golden Light Mantra before, so naturally I have to call you Master."

Hearing Chi Yao admitting himself, the smile on the old Taoist's face became more intense.

"Okay, okay, from now on, Tianshi Mansion will be your home! If you have any difficulties, just come to me, an old man!"

As he spoke, the old Taoist priest seemed to have thought of something and asked.

"By the way, Xiaoyao, when you practiced the Golden Light Mantra, did you encounter any problems with the circulation of Qi? You can't hide the confusion in your practice. If you make mistakes in the circulation of Qi, it's no joke."

Chi Yao shook his head and said.

"No problem, the Qi is flowing smoothly."

The old Taoist nodded with satisfaction.

"That's good. Do you understand the explanations about cultivation? If you have any questions, remember to ask me in time, or you can ask Junior Brother Tian."

Chi Yao bowed and said, "Then I will take my leave first. I want to read the book that Dean Isaac gave me when I get back."

"Go." The old Taoist priest responded and watched Chi Yao leave with a smile.

Having just received a talented young man, the old Taoist priest was in a very good mood, with joy all over his face.

"Senior brother, please calm down. Xiaoyao hasn't gone far." Tian Jinzhong reminded.

"Congratulations to the old master on his new disciple!" Lu Jin congratulated, "With such talent, I am looking forward to Hui Yao's future achievements!"

"Hehe, now you don't want to let our disciples compete?" The old Taoist said to Lu Jin with a smile.

"The incident of Linglong being struck by lightning just happened. Lao Zhang, you are so unfair! Let's fight!" As he said that, Lu Jin pinched out a string of thunder talismans.

While the three old naughty boys were joking with each other, Chi Yao returned to the venue of the competition. The finals had ended and the result of the selection of the Heavenly Master had been decided. Most of the strangers who came just to join in the fun and watch the show had already packed up and went home, making the venue seem a lot quieter.

Chi Yao searched for a while before finding Wang Ye, who was saying goodbye to the two brothers Zhuge Qing and Zhuge Bai, who had already packed their backpacks and luggage.

Chi Yao stepped forward and greeted the three of them.

"Old Qing, little brother, are you going back now?"

Zhuge Qing saw Chi Yao and nodded in response.

"Yes, the results of the competition are out, go back early. By the way, remember to visit Zhuge's house when you have time!"

Wang Ye looked at Chi Yao. He had already formed a habitual judgment about Chi Yao's behavior, which was: the other party must have something to do when he found him!

"Old Yao, tell me, what's the matter?"

"Hey, look at what you said. Can't I come to you if there is nothing wrong?" Chi Yao joked.

"I can find it, of course I can, but since you've come to my door, my intuition tells me that something has happened." Wang Ye shook his finger, his expression becoming more serious.

Chi Yao touched his chin and said in a calm tone.

"You two, I would like to ask you to predict whether Quan Xing will attack the Tianshi Mansion after the Luotian Grand Ceremony?"

"What?! Quan Xing is attacking Tianshi Mansion?" Zhuge Qing and Wang Ye exclaimed at the same time, and Zhuge Qing's squinting eyes suddenly widened.

"Where did you get this news? Is it true?" Wang Ye looked solemn.

Zhuge Qing also put down his luggage, walked up to Chi Yao, and asked, "Are you sure?"

 First update.
