Chapter 5: Chapter Five: Is He Really a Loser?

However, Rong Jin did not back down. He gripped the dark black saber in his hand, waiting for the moment their eyes met in the air and the fight was about to break out.

The captain of the guards from the Duke of Hua's manor led a squad of guards dressed in black martial attire toward Huan Yao. Although his expression held a hint of disdain, he still addressed Huan Yao with respect: "Second Miss, tomorrow is the day for the spiritual power testing. The Duke has ordered me to ensure that the Young Miss returns home."

The spiritual power test was something everyone in the Xiyao Kingdom had to undergo. Because of this, every year on this day, even if the Duke's manor could no longer tolerate Hua Jinse, they would still force her to undergo the test—unless she was dead.

Rong Jin's expression became increasingly strange. He did not believe the person before him was Hua Jinse; this had to be an illusion.

No, how could this be an illusion? The person before him was undoubtedly Hua Jinse. No one would be bored enough to consume their own spiritual power to transform into a useless trash.

Huan Yao frowned slightly. Yun Juechen had consumed the Red Spirit Fruit to boost his spiritual power, directly advancing from the third stage to the fourth stage. With her current Red Rank third stage, she was no match for Yun Juechen. It would be better to first test how much further she was from the Red Rank fourth stage; it wouldn't be too late to go back and seek revenge on him later.

"Hua Xiangwan, Red Rank second stage, eighty, attribute Gold," the deacon reported the spiritual power value with a calm expression.

The area below was immediately filled with gasps of surprise. She was only twenty points away from advancing to the Red Rank third stage, something many spiritual cultivators could never hope to achieve.

Although Hua Xiangwan was born of a concubine, she was the most powerful spiritual cultivator in the Duke of Hua's manor.

Before Hua Jinse was five years old, Hua Xiangwan had always been her arch-enemy, vowing to surpass her. Although her talent was average, she excelled through hard work and diligent practice, possessing extreme patience.

Even when Hua Jinse was regarded as trash, Hua Xiangwan continued to demand excellence from herself and practiced diligently, spending her days studying spiritual power. Consequently, she became the most favored daughter of the Duke of Hua's manor.

If Hua Xiangwan had continued to focus on her cultivation and moved further along the path toward godhood, it would have been a good thing.

However, Hua Xiangwan seemed to hate Hua Jinse from her very bones. When Hua Jinse became a useless waste, Hua Xiangwan's bullying of her wasn't obvious yet, simply because Hua Jinse had an incredibly powerful older brother, Hua Feiyue, protecting her.

But when she learned that Hua Feiyue had gone missing while on a mission, Hua Xiangwan was the first to charge into Hua Jinse's courtyard. Not only did she beat Hua Jinse until she was covered in wounds, but she also threw Hua Jinse into a manure pit for two days and two nights.

After that, when it came to torturing Hua Jinse, Hua Xiangwan could be said to have exhausted every bizarre method imaginable!

Hua Linghuai and Hua Yingrong, the two sycophants who followed behind Hua Xiangwan, naturally also tortured Hua Jinse in every possible way, using her as a vent whenever anything went wrong.

As a result, there wasn't a single patch of good skin left on Hua Jinse's body.

Huan Yao's reminiscing came to an abrupt halt when the deacon called out Hua Jinse's name.

She did not understand just how much hatred Hua Xiangwan held for Hua Jinse, insisting on torturing her to death and changing the method of torment every once in a while!

"Hua Jinse, spiritual power value zero, attribute None," the deacon beside her glanced over as if it were a common occurrence and reported in a steady tone.

Huan Yao's calm expression instantly turned to shock. When she last tested, she was clearly at the Red Rank third stage with forty points and the Water attribute!

She could also feel the surging spiritual power within her body.

How could the tested spiritual power value be zero?

Huan Yao did not believe it and performed the test again, but the result still showed zero.
