A day passed, and the second round of the assessment came to an end. Other than Su Qingyue, only one other person passed. The rest were all trapped in the false illusions created by the Heart-Questioning Array, unable to free themselves.
At this moment, the elder in charge of the assessment stepped forward. With a casual wave of his hand, the Heart-Questioning Array instantly dissolved. In the next second, rows of stone doors appeared before Su Qingyue and the other participating disciple.
"To achieve great results on the path of immortal cultivation, having astonishing talent and a firm temperament is not enough. The most important thing is karmic luck!"
"This third round will test your karmic luck!"
"This stage consists of another hundred minor stages. Each stage is very simple. There are three stone doors in front of you. Choose one to push open and enter. If you are not repelled, it means you have succeeded. Repeat this process a hundred times!"
"Do not hesitate. Every stone door looks exactly the same, and the correct door will change randomly. You will not find any clues. To pass this round, you must rely entirely on your karmic luck."
"Succeed a hundred times, and you will be able to become disciples of our Xuantian Holy Land."
Hearing the rules of this final assessment, Qin Hao couldn't help but grimace.
"With my negative one dou of karmic luck, there's no need to even think about it—I definitely wouldn't even pass the first door. A one-in-three chance each time, a hundred times... one-third to the power of a hundred. How infinitesimally small is that probability?"
The other participating disciple stepped up to take the test first. Unfortunately, he only made it through ten doors before the eleventh door sent him flying back.
Next, it was Su Qingyue's turn to take the assessment.
Su Qingyue stood before the three ancient stone doors. She took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and banished all distracting thoughts from her mind. Ceasing to overthink, she decided that since it was a gamble of luck, she would simply choose the middle door every time.
With this thought, Su Qingyue gently pushed open the middle door.
"One time... ten times... twenty times..."
Su Qingyue chose the same door every single time. For twenty consecutive times, without any mishaps, she successfully passed through.
The expression of the elder in charge of the assessment gradually shifted from calm to solemn. She chose the same door every time? And succeeded every time? The correct door's position was supposed to change constantly.
"Thirty times... fifty times... eighty times..."
Eighty times. Su Qingyue did not pause at all; every time she opened the door, it was incredibly smooth.
Seeing this scene, the elders on the viewing platform could no longer remain calm. This was especially true for Daoist Lieyang; the way he looked at Su Qingyue right now was as if he were looking at the most precious treasure in the world.
"Haha! To think that there is actually someone with such heaven-defying karmic luck in this world! It's not that she chose the correct answer every time, but rather her luck is so good that the correct answer chooses her every time!"
"This girl's talent, temperament, and karmic luck are all impeccable! If nurtured properly, our Xuantian Holy Land will surely gain a new Immortal King mighty figure in the future. Even becoming an Immortal Emperor isn't impossible!"
"Such an outstanding female cultivator... I must win her over for my grandson!"
Thinking of this, Daoist Lieyang no longer hesitated. He leaped down from the viewing platform, landed beside Su Qingyue, and interrupted her assessment.
Feeling the terrifying aura exuding from Daoist Lieyang, Su Qingyue obediently bowed to him.
"Greetings, Senior. May I ask what guidance Senior has for me?"
Daoist Lieyang looked at Su Qingyue with a face full of satisfaction. Not bad, she has the potential to become an Emperor and is so humble. He just happened to lack a granddaughter-in-law, and Su Qingyue was a perfect fit!
With this in mind, Daoist Lieyang spoke.
"Your name is Su Qingyue, right? I am the Thirty-Seventh Elder of the Xuantian Holy Land. My cultivation base is at the peak of the Immortal Lord Realm, only a single step away from the Immortal King Realm. Today, I intend to take you as my disciple. Are you willing?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the elders on the viewing platform lost their composure. They leaped down one after another.
"Lieyang! You treacherous old scoundrel, rushing to take a disciple before the assessment is even over! How despicable! Su Qingyue, I am the Fifth Elder of the Xuantian Holy Land, also a peak Immortal Lord Realm cultivator. As long as you take me as your master, I will immediately announce that you will be my closed-door disciple."
"I am the Ninth Elder. If you take me as your master..."
Watching the crowd of elders talking all at once, fighting to be her master, Su Qingyue suddenly felt at a loss. She turned her head and cast an inquiring look at Qin Hao.
Qin Hao gave a light shrug and sent a voice transmission to Su Qingyue.
"This is a major event in your life. You should make the choice yourself."
The sight of Su Qingyue turning to ask for Qin Hao's opinion caused Daoist Lieyang to frown deeply. In his heart, Su Qingyue was already his designated granddaughter-in-law. For her to still be entangled with a mere Golden Core Realm brat was very inappropriate!
"Hmph, once Qingyue takes me as her master, I will get rid of you!"
Thinking this, Daoist Lieyang summoned his natal magical treasure.
"Qingyue, I sincerely wish to take you as my disciple. This is my natal magical treasure, the Lieyang Sword. My title as Daoist Lieyang was forged relying on this very sword. Today, I gift it to you."
As soon as these words came out, the complexions of the surrounding elders instantly changed. No way, this old scoundrel Lieyang even brought out his natal magical treasure? You're really willing to part with it!
Not only that, Daoist Lieyang then summoned a whole series of treasures. These were all incomparably precious treasures even to an Immortal Lord mighty figure, yet now he shoved them all into Su Qingyue's hands at once.
Seeing this, the other elders couldn't help but twitch their mouths. If this old scoundrel was playing like this, how the hell were they supposed to compete? Soon, the crowd of elders tactfully withdrew.
Daoist Lieyang laughed heartily at the sight. "Qingyue, you can see it now, right? None of them are sincere. They were scared off by just a few ordinary treasures, while I can bring them out for you without even blinking an eye. Are you sure you won't take me as your master?"
At this moment, Su Qingyue's heart was also filled with emotion. She bowed repeatedly to Daoist Lieyang.
"Master above, please accept a bow from your disciple."
Hearing Su Qingyue change her form of address, Daoist Lieyang laughed even more unrestrainedly.
"Hahahaha, good disciple, hahaha, today is truly a double blessing for this old man!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding elders immediately cast inquiring glances.
"Old scoundrel, how is taking a disciple a double blessing? Did you eat bee dung? You can't even close your mouth from smiling so much."
Daoist Lieyang ignored the jealous expressions of the surrounding elders. Looking at Su Qingyue, he continued speaking on his own.
"Today, I have gained a beloved disciple; this is the first blessing. As everyone knows, I have an only grandson who is a hundred years old this year, and he has never had a suitable Dao companion."
"I did a quick divination and found that Qingyue and my grandson share quite a profound destiny. Therefore, I wish to arrange a marriage contract today. Qingyue, what do you think?"
"My grandson is a hundred years old this year, and his cultivation base has reached the peak of the Void Refinement Realm, only a single step away from the Body Integration Realm. If the two of you support each other, you will surely be able to comprehend the Great Dao together!"
Hearing this, Su Qingyue's face instantly turned deathly pale. She hurriedly took a step back and bowed to Daoist Lieyang.
"Senior! This disciple's heart is set solely on the Dao. I have no thoughts of seeking a Dao companion for the time being."
No! Except for Qin Hao, I don't want anyone else!!
