Balor stood silently and watched as people from his group take turns approaching the stone and answer questions."You said that you were 20 years old, why did the stone show that you were 17?"
Shanley Lin could not restrain his curiosity and ask.
Cursing people"s curiosity, Balor did not think long about the answer.
"I feel 20 years old, actually me 17 years old."
Dissatisfied with the answer, Shanli Lin already wanted to continue the questioning, but he was interrupted by Yun Xun.
"Now that all 30 people have received their clay tablets with their names, we can continue. Now we will go to another room to check your spiritual veins. "
Having said this, she did not wait for an answer and left through the already open door. Everyone followed her, but because of the tension, the whole group tried to be as quiet as possible.
Walking along the dark corridor, Balor silently reflected, looking at his feet.
"I came here just to get information. I do not need to stand out, it can end badly. From now on, I will try to blend in the crowd as much as possible. "
Suddenly he felt a look at himself and raised his head. To his surprise, he found that Yun Xun was looking at him with his pink eyes. Noticing his gaze, she smiled faintly in response.
"You"re a Balor, right? You stand out from the crowd. Your too exaggerated age, your strange name, and even your mask, all this seems to scream about your unusualness."
h.e.l.l! Why am I always unlucky. As if I had left my luck in my world.
"Do not pay attention to me, I am absolutely an ordinary person."
"This phrase makes you even weirder. If you are an ordinary person, then why do you wear a mask?"
Why is everyone in this world so curious?
"In my village, people take off their masks only after they get married."
Balor felt that he had already mastered the art of lying to perfection. He already lied without even pausing to ponder the answer.
Yun Xun looked surprised.
"What a strange custom."
Please do not ask more questions!
As if Balor"s prayers had been answered, a door appeared in front of them. Entering it, a group of people ended up in a round stone room. In the middle of the room was a clear crystal a meter high.
Next to the crystal was a table where three old men were already sitting.
Looking at the group that came, the old man said in a low voice.
"This crystal will test your spiritual veins, if they are acceptable, you will go further. And so, is there anyone who wants to go first? "
"May I?"
To the surprise of Balor, Shanley Lin with bold steps approached the crystal and put his hand. After a moment, the crystal glowed with blue light, and a strange whirlwind appeared inside.
Seeing this, the elders nodded approvingly.
"You are a lucky young man, you have the spiritual veins of the Azure wind. You can skip the third stage, you are accepted to the school of the Heavenly Blue Dragon. You can stand by and wait when we check the other candidates."
Pride appeared on Shanley Lin"s face and he quickly stood at the indicated place.
"So who is next?"
Following his plan does not stand out and be invisible, Balor decided to let a few people in front of him. To his surprise, many were weeded out.
"You have too weak spiritual veins. You haven"t pa.s.sed, the next one."
"Your spiritual veins are too narrow. You haven"t pa.s.sed, the next one."
Deciding that it was already pointless to wait, Balor stepped forward. Noticing this, the old man sitting in the middle of the table nodded approvingly.
"You stand out quite a lot, I"m curious to see your result."
Balor"s leg froze in the air, but after a moment he continued to move. He already understood the meaninglessness of his plan and decided not to think about it. What worried him now was the crystal in front of him.
Balor has already made an approximate a.s.sumption about spiritual veins. It was that the spiritual veins of this world are mana channels in his world. Since he was a second-level mage, he was faithful in his mana channels.
So he walked confidently to the middle of the round room and laid a palm on the crystal.
After a couple of seconds, the three elders showed signs of shock, Yun Xun covered her mouth with surprise with her hand, the room became quiet.
Only after a short time can hear the voice of one of the elders.
"He has ... he ... he has no spiritual veins, he is crippled. Pity. Failed, next. "
Balor was a little surprised, but not very much.
Heh, this is my second guess. If mana and this energy come from different sources, then I cannot have any spiritual veins. All the same, I was born and raised where there was only mana.
Having removed his hand from the crystal, Balor turned and went to the exit, considering his further actions.
Suddenly, an old man who was sitting on the edge of the table appeared an expression on his face as if he had remembered something and he quickly got up.
"Wait, there is a possibility that he has spiritual veins of the Void, if so, then the crystal will not be able to identify them."
Halfway, Balor stopped, turning his head, he looked strangely at the talking old man.
"Lao Tsai, it is just a legend, such veins do not exist."
"Kang Guo, I think this is not a myth when I recently went on a trip, I read about it in an ancient book, and even if this is not true, then think about what we are losing? If so, we get a student who has unlimited possibilities, and if not, we can exclude him at any time."

After a few seconds of thought, Kang Guo nodded his head slowly.
"Okay, I agree with you. But he has to go through the third stage. We will test his skills in battle."
All three elders agreed and Balor stood up with all those who were admitted to the next stage.
Looking at the face of Shanley Lin, which expressed a lot of emotions, he already regretted that he decided to look for information in this school. He was filled with a sense of the absurdity of everything that was happening.
"I hope it won"t be any worse."
