The Prodigal Son of the Mystical Sect

With a slight thought, Chu Tianxiao quietly opened the interface of the Big Prodigal System and pulled down the redemption list...

"Well...that's it, that's it!"

…

…

A few days later.

Time passed quickly, and the test between the two elders of the academy finally came to an end. At this last moment, even Mr. Zhao from before came to join in the fun.

In a green bamboo forest, accompanied by the sound of spring water, the three elders of the academy appeared together, chatting and laughing, and took their seats... But the moment they sat down, their brows frowned slightly...

"What's going on?"

I saw several people in front of me, all of them empty-handed...

Obviously, these are the bamboo-growing geniuses who were completely swept up by Chu Tianxiao before.

At that moment, when they saw the slightly unhappy expression on the third elder's face, they secretly said, "Oh no!"

Before, they thought they had no hope, so they gave up, but now they think about it, the three elders are about to end this level, will they give some benefits to the 'last batch of contestants' before leaving? For example, preaching, spreading vocations, etc.?

At this thought, they couldn't help but feel a strong sense of regret. However, at this time, they naturally would not say that they were greedy for profit. Instead, they pushed the responsibility to Chu Tianxiao in their words...

"Three old men clearly understand, it's not that we are lazy and don't do things, but...hey, this 'question answerer' is too 'powerful'!"

"I...I was dizzy at that time...could it be that I was under some kind of illusion?"

"Yes, I also heard about the price of twenty times... Come to think of it, why did this person pay such a premium to buy a pile of rubbish? Is there something behind this... I don't dare to guess, please be careful."

It has to be said that once people decide that someone is good and can be bullied, it is difficult to change the impression... Just like before the decisive battle in the Forbidden City, the Mu family thought they could scold Mu Liuling at will... These people today are raising bamboos. Geniuses also have similar thoughts.

In their eyes, Chu Tianxiao is simply an idiot with a lot of money and stupidity. This alone is enough to cover up all his advantages. Sooner or later in the future, he will lose his family fortune and live in vain...

In other words, they felt that Chu Tianxiao was nothing to worry about.

Not to mention that Jun Lintian was "building momentum" in front of them... They naturally looked down on Chu Tianxiao even more.

Because of this, they dare to speak nonsense.

After hearing these heart-breaking remarks, although the three elders were not so stupid that they could not see the little thoughts of these people, they were also slightly dissatisfied with Chu Tianxiao's actions of destroying the "examination questions"...

"...That's all, let's see what kind of good bamboo this child will finally cultivate after all this hard work..."

With a slight change of mind, the three elders put the matter down, closed their eyes and concentrated, waiting for the specified deadline to arrive...

finally.

At one point, they both opened their eyes at the same time.

Then, he frowned again.

Because only one person they wanted to see came!

He has a graceful demeanor, surrounded by the charm of bamboo, and has a handsome appearance, with a hint of tiredness on his face... He is actually Jun Xiuzhu!

And Chu Tianxiao... didn't come!

In just a moment, the dissatisfaction of the three elders surged up again, and their expressions became quite unsightly. Even though the three elders usually seemed easy to talk to, they were old-timers after all, and they always had a arrogant temperament.

Seeing this, Jun Xiuzhu revealed a wry smile, saluted, and told the three elders the whole story... After listening to his words, the three elders were still noncommittal, and the people around him could not help but sneer...

"Oh? What's strange... Chengzhu is already around the corner, but he actually wants to use extra means at the last moment? This is why there is a delay, hehe... it's simply ridiculous."

Sensing the unfriendly atmosphere around him, Jun Xiuzhu was helpless... To be honest, he also didn't agree with what Chu Tianxiao suddenly wanted to do at the last moment... But who made him the answerer? ?

The initiative is ultimately in his hands.

"...What do you think?"

Looking around the room, I saw that the three elders were silent for a long time, and finally started discussing among themselves in whispers - they have lived longer, seen more, and are naturally more receptive to new things, so at the moment, although I feel that Chu Tianxiao's move is completely contrary to Common sense is just looking for trouble, and may even be harmful rather than helpful... However, they will not directly veto it, but choose to wait and see what happens.

"Has he said it? How long will it take?"

"Report to the three elders... It will be done within half a quarter of an hour." Although he still had doubts deep in his heart, Jun Xiuzhu finally understood the general idea, and at this time, he still maintained a supportive posture.

"Well... then let's take a look at other people's finished products first, and then wait for this one."

Hearing this, Jun Xiuzhu breathed a long sigh of relief: "Thank you, Third Boss, for your generosity..."

Before he finished speaking, the third elder waved his hand to interrupt, and motioned to the surrounding bamboo cultivation geniuses to come forward and show the finished product... Seeing this, Jun Xiuzhu couldn't help but smile bitterly, thinking that such neglect made the third elder unhappy after all. ...It would be great if Chu Tianxiao can produce good works next, otherwise, I'm afraid...

Just as his thoughts were changing, the few people who had been confident in themselves and therefore did not sell the "finished product" to Chu Tianxiao were all secretly happy in their hearts. They quickly stepped forward to let the three elders inspect the results.

It has to be said that most people who can be left here to raise bamboo by the three elders have two brushes... After so many failures, they have also vaguely found some ways...

All of a sudden, all kinds of strange and weird bamboos were revealed to the public. Some had green leaves and became jade, some had bright bamboo poles, some were as straight as the sky, and some were as graceful as snakes... If you think about it in detail, each of these bamboos can be regarded as a natural material. The treasure is worth more than three million spiritual coins...

It is naturally something to be proud of to be able to cultivate a stupid bamboo with a low original price to such a level... But what disappointed these people was that the three elders were completely indifferent to this. Even the best bamboo among them, which was worth more than 10 million spirit coins, only made them look at it for a while...

In other words, a group of geniuses were defeated.

As time went by... fewer and fewer people remained. Soon, only Jun Lintian and Chu Tianxiao had not yet been inspected...

And until this time, Chu Tianxiao had not arrived.

Seeing this, everyone around showed a mocking expression. Jun Lintian even took a step forward, glanced at Jun Xiuzhu coldly, and said "boring"...

Then, he stepped forward and took out something from a special container...

In just a moment, the pupils of the three elders shrank!

……

……

But under the sunlight, a blood bamboo stood up and shone brightly.

The bamboo pole is crystal clear, and you can clearly see a ray of blood-colored light swimming in it like a fish. Each bamboo leaf is like a piece of extremely precious blood jade, slightly cool to the touch, and feels very good... What surprised the three elders was that although it was a blood bamboo, it did not carry a trace of bloody evil spirit, but instead exuded a refreshing fragrance... Of course, the most valuable part is the mysterious patterns in the middle of the blood bamboo and between the leaves, which seemed to be created by nature... At just one glance, the three elders were deeply attracted and could not look away - this was not because they lacked concentration, but because they were knowledgeable and had reached the peak of the fifth realm, and they could vaguely glimpse the avenue nurtured in this blood bamboo... Just like calligraphy and painting, the more experienced you are, the more attracted you will be. Especially... After watching the blood bamboo for only a moment, the three elders actually felt that their bottleneck, which had been stagnant for many years, suddenly trembled slightly - although this tremor was not obvious and returned to its original state after a moment, the meaning behind it was also needless to say...

In this way, how could they not be intoxicated?

And seeing the three elders showing such a look... Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the outcome was already decided today.

There was no need for the three elders to announce anything... Jun Lintian raised his eyebrows slightly, while Jun Xiuzhu suddenly turned pale.

At this moment, Jun Xiuzhu completely ignored the eyes around him that were either sympathetic or gloating...

His heart was filled with shock - he had also seen Jun Lintian's bamboo path, although it was extremely high, it was not much stronger than himself who specialized in this path, and he clearly did not get his bamboo heart this time, so why could he cultivate such a "stunning" blood bamboo?

After the shock, there was full of unwillingness.

"Is it true that we can't compete? We just lost like that?"

Looking at the gradually obsessed expressions of the three elders, Jun Xiuzhu couldn't help but slowly clench his fists... He knew it was useless. Not to mention that the mentally retarded bamboo he had painstakingly cultivated was far inferior to this blood bamboo in terms of grade. Even if it could be comparable, I'm afraid it would not attract the attention of the three elders...

The winner... has been decided.

No matter how bitter the result... is, he has to accept it in the end.

But...

"... In the end, he failed that person's trust... He had paid so much, but he didn't even have a chance to make a move... Why was God so unfair to him..."

Seeing this, Jun Xiuzhu couldn't help but feel sad for Chu Tianxiao... However, before this sad mood spread, there was a sudden sound of footsteps not far away, and Chu Tianxiao was seen holding a half-person-sized "special container" in one hand, walking leisurely...

"Sorry for the trouble..."

After this voice fell, except for the three elders of the academy, everyone else's eyes were on him...

Jun Xiuzhu's eyes were full of sympathy, and the others, more or less, were all teasing and mocking...

Jun Lintian looked straight ahead with pride and sneered disdainfully, as if to say that ants are ants, and they don't even have self-knowledge - in this case, if Chu Tianxiao was ashamed of himself and didn't show up, it would not be so embarrassing... But he showed up at this time...

It was simply self-humiliation!
