Chapter 70: Awakening Tower

“Friend Su, is there something wrong with my face?”

“What are you looking at me like that for?”

Luo Yuebai was still reeling from Su Jingzhen’s previous words, just like Shuang Jiang.

But suddenly, Su Jingzhen gave him a strange look.

Luo Yuebai’s heart grew more suspicious.

He stretched out his hand, preparing to touch Su Jingzhen.

However, before his hand could make contact, Su Jingzhen suddenly retreated two feet back.

“Don’t come any closer!”

Su Jingzhen’s sudden movement startled Luo Yuebai.

Even Shuang Jiang and Ning Yao on the side looked puzzled.

“What’s wrong, Friend Su? What’s going on?”

Luo Yuebai was baffled.

Seeing the strange gazes from the crowd, Su Jingzhen’s face turned slightly embarrassed.

He knew he had overreacted.

But he really couldn’t accept any physical contact with Luo Yuebai at this time.

In the past, when there was no emotional connection, he didn’t mind casual physical contact.

But this emotional connection made him feel a bit ashamed.

He couldn’t accept it, even if Luo Yuebai was extremely handsome.

He, Su Jingzhen, had his limits!

Before the emotional connection was formed, he didn’t think it was a big deal to put arms around each other’s shoulders.

But this emotional connection really made him feel a little ashamed.

Suddenly, Su Jingzhen felt that these days, Luo Yuebai’s enthusiasm towards him might not be because he had discovered something, but simply because he was attracted to his handsome face and strong physique.

This was terrifying to think about!

“Friend Su, what’s wrong with you?”

“Why are you suddenly so afraid of me? Am I some kind of fierce beast?”

As for Luo Yuebai, he was genuinely puzzled at this time.

To the point where Luo Yuebai’s heart was also a bit anxious: had he discovered something? That shouldn’t be possible, right?

“No, no, don’t mind, friend.”

“I just suddenly feel that my current situation is a bit dangerous.”

“You’re too close to me, and Huayang Sect might not spare you.”

Su Jingzhen’s tone gradually calmed down.

His excuse was quite abrupt, but it was reasonable.

It could explain his previous behavior, after all.

Luo Yuebai didn’t raise an eyebrow, his face still filled with doubt.

“Is that so?”

“If that’s the case, then you don’t need to worry, friend.”

“Let them vent their anger if they want to.”

As he spoke, Luo Yuebai’s face was calm and carefree, with a hint of disdain.

【Emotional Connection +2】

【Remaining usable points: 335】

At this time, the golden words “Emotional Connection +2” floated in front of Su Jingzhen’s eyes again.

Although the points increased, the ones from Luo Yuebai made him uncomfortable.

It was only now that he suddenly realized.

This guy’s cultivation bonus had reached 2 times!

No wonder he was so fearless.

He still didn’t know what the 2-times cultivation bonus on the panel corresponded to in reality.

Based on Zhang Xiu’s inference, 2 times was at least Foundation Establishment, but there could be even higher possibilities.

As Luo Yuebai spoke to him, Su Jingzhen had already walked to Shuang Jiang’s side.

At this time, Shuang Jiang’s face also showed puzzlement and curiosity.

She vaguely felt that Su Jingzhen had just lied.

But she really didn’t know what reason could make Su Jingzhen react so strongly.

After all, no matter how strong her cultivation was, she couldn’t imagine the existence of a system.

However, with Shuang Jiang’s personality, she wouldn’t ask questions even if she was curious.

Seeing Su Jingzhen standing extremely close to Shuang Jiang, Luo Yuebai’s heart was still filled with doubt.

But he didn’t dwell on the matter either.

Their gazes once again turned to the Awakening Tower in front of them.

At this time, children had already entered the Awakening Tower.

The Awakening Tower was undoubtedly the focus of everyone’s attention.

This was the fundamental purpose of gathering here.

Su Jingzhen recognized the first child to enter the tower, it was none other than Lin Feng, the son of Lin Ping, whom he had killed!

He had been transferred to Cuiliu Alley School by Lin Ping a long time ago, and after his father’s death, he seemed to have been well taken care of by Cuiliu School.

At the age of twelve, he already had a bit of an extraordinary aura.

“This kid should be able to awaken spiritual roots.”

Lin Feng had studied at Peach Blossom Alley Enlightenment School, and Su Jingzhen knew a thing or two about him.

This kid’s innate talents were indeed exceptional.

Su Jingzhen had been in this line of work for over two and a half years and had some experience.

Children who were relatively smart in all aspects would naturally have a good result when awakening.

Of course, there were exceptions, like Yan Xia, who was considered the most excellent child by Yan Chixiao and his wife.

They were even willing to spend a large sum of money to buy her a spiritual body, but she still couldn’t awaken spiritual roots.

And now, she had come again.

Su Jingzhen had caught a glimpse of her in the crowd.

To get back on track, as Su Jingzhen was thinking to himself, he saw Lin Feng walking into the tower with an extremely tense expression.

However, as time passed, the Awakening Tower didn’t show any reaction.

If someone had spiritual roots, the tower would respond with corresponding colors after detecting the spirit stones.

Red, orange, yellow, green, and blue!

There were only five colors in total.

As long as any of these colors appeared, it represented the presence of spiritual roots, even if it was just ordinary.

But if it was an ordinary spiritual root with a single attribute or even dual attributes, that would be considered exceptional.

In Linjiang City, it would be considered a small genius, with a chance of reaching Foundation Establishment in the future.

If it was an ordinary spiritual root with three or more attributes, that would be basically useless, and it was recommended to find a Dao Companion as soon as possible after adulthood.

If the tower lit up with two colors, it would represent the appearance of mysterious spiritual roots.

Mysterious spiritual roots were rare in Linjiang City, even if it was a five-element spiritual root, as long as one of the elements reached the mysterious level.

In that case, it would be considered a template for an inner sect disciple of Huayang Sect’s Linjiang branch.

It was said that Chen Jinshi, when he awakened, had two spiritual roots, with water being ordinary, but his metal spiritual root reached the mysterious level.

He focused on cultivating his metal spiritual root and achieved great success by the time he was over twenty years old.

So, in Linjiang City, if someone could produce a mysterious spiritual root, it would be like an ancestral grave emitting blue smoke.

And if the Awakening Tower lit up with three colors, it would represent the awakener having a terrifying earth spiritual root.

Such a person, regardless of how many spiritual roots they had, could be called a genius.

That would be a template for a saint or a holy maiden of Huayang Sect’s main sect.

As for the Awakening Tower lighting up with four colors… heavenly spiritual roots…

Forget about Huayang Sect, even the entire Qingzhou region hasn’t seen one in a thousand years.

So, it’s not worth discussing.

“This kid looks like he’s useless.”

“It’s been so long without a reaction, he’s indeed useless.”

“It’s said that friend Lin Ping died for this kid, what a pity, he has no value at all.”

“……”

Looking at Lin Feng in the Awakening Tower, the crowd couldn’t help but shake their heads.

Chen Chong’s face turned gloomy, he originally wanted to let Lin Feng make a good start.

But it ended up like this?

He was just about to scold him.

At this time, the Awakening Tower suddenly had a faint, weak change.
