I Can Grant Origin Powers To Anything

Chapter 11: He Can’t Fill the Gaps

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

In the VIP room of Qingyang High School, the senior sister and junior brother from the Riyueming Sect were communicating via video chat with the sect master who was currently in the sect.

Over the past two days, Ji Roufeng and Zhang Ziqian had barely closed their eyes. They had been carefully compiling the information of the students.

Although these people were still very weak in their eyes, as long as they were given the chance, they could become the mainstay of the sect in the future.

Therefore, Ji Roufeng and Zhang Ziqian were very serious in analyzing the past achievements of these people, not daring to make the slightest mistake.

“Master, I have finished sorting out the information of all the relevant students of Qingyang High School!” Before the sect master, Ji Roufeng’s face was solemn as she curtsied. Her posture of slightly bending her knees made her waist seem even more slender and flexible, and her gracefulness made her seem like she had walked out of a painting.

She said respectfully, “There are a total of 27 students in Qingyang High School who are at stage 9 of the Body-tempering Tier. Four of them are unwilling to join the Riyueming Sect. There are also seven whose bones have been preformed and are not suitable to join. As such, there are currently a total of 16 students at stage 9 of the Body-tempering Tier who are interested in the Riyueming Sect. The information of these 16 candidates has been transmitted back to the sect. Please make the decision, Master!”

On the other side of the video, Liu Peiyun, the head of Mount Yunxia, who had a head of white hair and looked quite kind, chuckled. She was old, but her beauty could not be concealed. She must have been a beauty that could topple nations and cities in her younger years.

Looking at her most beloved disciple, she smiled and said, “It’s been hard on you, Xiao Feng’er. Next, we have to think of a way to select five among these sixteen candidates. You still have a lot of work to do.”

She paused for a moment before continuing, “Moreover, the Great Xia Empire encourages everyone to practice martial arts. With our population, the chances of talented cultivators appearing will naturally be much higher. Unfortunately, due to their numbers being so large, they can’t be given tailor-made classes. I’m afraid that the students at stage 9 of the Body-tempering Tier are far inferior to the disciples of the same stage and tier in our sect, right?”

Ji Roufeng said, “Master is wise. That is indeed the case.”

“Remember, what we want is not trash. The strength and character of the people you choose must be far beyond others. We can’t take in narrow-minded people either. Outsiders may not know about the disaster of the Riyueming Sect back then, but you should know how terrifying it is to let a narrow-minded person obtain power.”

“Yes, I understand,” Ji Rou Feng paused for a moment, her pretty face showing a slight bashful expression as she asked softly, “Master, I have a presumptuous request. I would like to ask if you would grant it.”

Hints of surprise appeared in Liu Peiyun’s eyes. It was very rare to see her gentle and beautiful disciple looking bashful like this.

She smiled and said, “Go on.”

“It’s like this. There is a student at Qingyang High School who has just reached stage 8 of the Body-tempering Tier, but I think that he is quite talented. Can we make an exception for him and add his name to the list of candidates?!”

As she said this, Ji Ruofeng could not help but blush. She recalled how he had bumped into her and made her fall to the ground with no ability to resist at all.

She was a martial artist in the True-transformation Tier, and he was just a Body-tempering martial artist. The gap between them was huge, but she had been knocked to the ground just like that from his simple bump.

If this couldn’t be considered good talent, then what could?

Liu Peiyun showed her interest and asked, “Oh, who is it?”

Ji Roufeng said, “It’s a senior student of Qingyang High School. He is 17 years old this year, 1.81 meters tall, and weighs 65 kg. His parents are no longer around, but he has been working hard in cultivation and working hard to study. His story is quite moving.”

Beside her, Zhang Ziqian couldn’t help but twitch his lips.

How could he tell that this senior sister of his had finished all the work on compiling the information of these students before midnight and had then spent the rest of her time looking for this Xu Lingjun’s information? She even got teary-eyed in the process, as if she was feeling pity for his past.

Wasn’t Xu Lingjun just a little handsome? Besides being handsome, what else did he have?

Was there a need for such a good person like his senior sister to think about him so much?

“It’s not enough that his story is moving. Is there anything special about him?”

Ji Rou Feng thought for a moment and said seriously, “He and I are fated.”

Liu Peiyun looked at Ji Roufeng’s determined expression and shook her head helplessly. She sighed and said, “Feng’er, you should know the minimum standards the Riyueming Sect has for recruiting disciples. For him to be at stage 9 of the Body-tempering Tier, his aptitude isn’t bad, but it can’t be considered outstanding either. I roughly understand what you mean. It’s normal for young people to have romantic feelings, but you are different. I intend to foster you to become the head of Mount Yunxia in the future. You can’t have any dark histories.”

“But Master…”

“Do you really think that letting this person with average aptitude join the Riyueming Sect is the right thing to do?” Liu Peiyun said gently, “Feng’er, you should be very well aware of the kind of people who are in the Riyueming Sect. With that kid’s aptitude, even if he joins the Riyueming Sect, he can only be at the bottom, thus being bullied and looked down upon. Letting him join isn’t necessarily a good thing. The sun hangs high in the sky, and the orioles sing in the shade of the willows. If you force the orioles to fly high into the sky and drag the blazing sun down to the ground, it will not lead to a good ending. From both perspectives, public and private, this isn’t appropriate.”

Her Master spoke very earnestly and tactfully, even taking care of her emotions.

But what she meant..

“Yes, I understand,” Ji Roufeng clutched the piece of paper filled with personal information in her hand tightly and said apologetically, “It’s my fault for not distinguishing between public and private affairs. I hope Master can forgive me.”

“It’s alright. It’s normal for young people to make mistakes. Treat it as a life experience,” Liu Peiyun smiled and said, “For now, focus on this mission. After you complete it, you will receive a generous reward from the sect. The frost chalcedony that you will receive will be of great benefit to you to break through to your current realm!”

“Yes, thank you, Master,” Ji Roufeng nodded, but her eyes were filled with desolation.

“Remember, don’t put his name into the list,” Liu Peiyun said gently, “I know you may be very fond of him, but you have to understand that you are a phoenix destined to soar above the nine heavens, and should not be associated with the skylarks of the mortal world. In the future, your outlook on life and values will be very, very different. The difference will be so big that love can not fill the gap between the two of you. He can not fill the gaps, do you understand?”

“Yes, I was wrong,” Ji Roufeng lowered her eyes as she said softly. She was very careful not to let her Master see the desolation in her eyes.

In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.

In these three days, Xu Lingjun had taken leave on almost all of the general knowledge classes. In any case, the general knowledge teacher was his fiancée, so he could do whatever he wanted.

And the martial arts teacher, Zhou Qing, was also very good-natured.

He was especially so with Xu Lingjun as Xu Lingjun had used the time after class to help Zhou Qing with many trivial matters for these few days. This had freed up a lot of time for Zhou Qing, who had been busy tutoring the students at stage 9 of the Body-tempering Tier.

Zhou Qing couldn’t help but sigh in amazement at how sensible Xu Lingjun was, and he felt grateful.

He didn’t know that Xu Lingjun was treating him like a sheep, ruthlessly getting wool from him.

Looking at the 425 source value points before him, he was satisfied.

Other than doing this, Xu Lingjun spent most of his time practicing his martial technique.

The Killing-flame Fist was extremely strong. Although it wasn’t at the level that could destroy the world, it still wasn’t a martial technique that one at his tier could practice. He was simply relying on the “Infinite Celestial Demon Body-tempering Technique” to practice it with ease, which allowed him to experience many of its benefits.

Therefore, he was almost obsessed with it and could not extricate himself.

When he was tired, he would take an E’jiao capsule, and his physical strength could be recovered in an instant.

With his, he could also refine Infinite Celestial Demon Body-tempering Technique while he was at it.

In just a few days, his physique had grown to be more tenacious than before, and it showed on his skin that became perfect.

As such, Wang Qingya had been looking at Xu Lingjun with a strange gaze recently.

Other than using Xu Lingjun’s toothbrush and towel the day she had just arrived, the rest of their daily necessities had been separated. But now, she had started to occupy Xu Lingjun’s men’s shower gel and shampoo.

His skin was almost better than hers, did he use some special facial cleanser?

Why was he so stingy? He had a nice facial cleanser, yet he didn’t share it with her. It wasn’t like her face was big, she only needed a little to wash her whole face. Sharing with her wouldn’t hurt him, right?

After using Xu Lingjun’s shower gel and shampoo for a few days without any effect, Wang Qingya’s resentment towards Xu Lingjun had grown much heavier..
