Chapter 17 – The good-for-nothing is actually a super genius! (3)

　　Effortlessly crossing to cyan….

　　Although the speed of the transformation started to slow down, there was no indication that it would stop!

　　Blue…..

　　Nangong Liuyun’s gaze fixated on that crystal pillar, and watched the slowly turning blue spiritual energy.

　　A thoughtful look flashed across his eyes.

　　To be capable of illuminating blue spiritual energy already implied exceptional talent and outstanding innate spiritual strength. Because even on this continent, very few were able to reach blue ranked innate spiritual strength.

　　However….. What left Nangong Liuyun completely speechless was that her spiritual energy acted like a naughty child. It climbed slowly but surely while trying to reach the summit and actually——

　　Actually lit up that crystal pillar.

　　The purple colored crystal pillar—— In the history of the Eastern Ling Empire the number of people who lit up that color could be counted on one hand, but this girl Su Luo, actually reached purple colored spiritual energy!

　　Yet this kind of girl had been treated as a good-for-nothing for the past decade; bullied, abused, and neglected. It was simply a tragic waste of talent!

　　At this moment, if not for Nangong Liuyun’s noble upbringing, even he wouldn’t be able to hold back the curse words.

　　What happened years ago? Why did such a talented girl get labeled as a good-for-nothing? This matter must be thoroughly investigated. A freezing cold expression flashed across Nangong Liuyun’s eyes.

　　Ten minutes, thirty minutes, and one hour later…. The spiritual energy she sent into the crystal ball was like the endless sea. Even after so long, her expression showed no trace of fatigue.

　　In this world that only respected the strong, talent and innate spiritual strength determined everything… Each of these seven colors represented a person’s future levels of success.

　　Purple was subdivided into high class, middle class and low class.

　　Overtime, the purple spiritual energy slowly rose pass low class to reach middle class, and finally reaching….

　　High class!

　　High class purple!

　　Nangong Liuyun’s normally serene and unflappable face, now carried a dumbfounded expression.

　　Originally he thought that Su Luo reaching blue colored spiritual energy was not bad, but in the end, she reached purple colored high class. It was too inconceivable and that innate talent was so strong to the point of being frightening.

　　However…. However, that purple colored spiritual energy was still slowly rising and continuing its freakish climb. Its silent climbing speed wouldn’t overtake an ant, but he had never heard of this happening in reality.

　　It was getting close, getting closer to the summit….

　　However, at this moment, the situation suddenly changed!

　　Just when the crystal ball was about to be completely filled, the seven colored crystal pillars suddenly became black, as if they had crashed, and all the colors dissipated.

　　At this moment, the seven crystal pillars returned to their original transparently clear color, and not a hint of color was left to be seen.

　　Su Luo suddenly felt a metallic sweet taste in her throat as a stream of blood burst from the corner of her mouth——

　　“Luo Luo!” Nangong Liuyun seemed like he teleported in front of Su Luo, his speed was as fast as dispersed smoke. He held Su Luo in his bosom, with an anxious and panicked expression.

　　“I’m fine.” Su Luo leaned into his embrace and weakly shook her head. “What happened earlier? What exactly was the result of the test? Is it still the same good-for-nothing result?”

　　After all, she was still concerned about her good-for-nothing innate talent.

　　A crooked smile perked from the corner of Nangong Liuyun mouth. He playfully tapped her smooth forehead and answered with his low voice. “If you are a good-for-nothing then everyone under the heavens are idiots.”

　　“So…. I’m not a good-for-nothing?” Su Luo’s mood suddenly became less tense as her electrified gaze looked expectantly toward Nangong Liuyun.

　　“Cough, cough.” At the moment, Nangong Liuyun didn’t know how to break the news to Su Luo. “Ah, actually, there might be a little problem with this crystal ball….”
