"Very well," said Master Sekte from the Yuntian Sword Sect, looking at Su Zhan and nodding. "Su Zhan, this is the Talent Pillar carved with a special formation. This pillar is specifically used by our Yuntian Sword Sect to test the talents of those we value the most." 

With the permission of the sect master, Chen Changfeng pointed to the stone pillar in the middle of the hall, located in a large pool. "Later, all you need to do is place your hand on the pillar, activate your true qi, and the Talent Pillar will automatically detect your bone structure, cultivation talent, and even your understanding of martial arts techniques!" 

"Even understanding can be tested?" Su Zhan looked surprised as he gazed at the stone pillar. 

He had noticed the grayish-white stone pillar, which was about five to six meters tall, when he first entered the hall, but he thought it was just a special decoration of the Fenghua Hall. He didn't expect it to be the key to the examination. 

"Of course, otherwise, what do you think the purpose of our Yuntian Sword Sect's Fenghua Hall is?" answered a fat elder, who noticed Su Zhan's surprised expression and replied proudly. 

"That's Elder Liu, in charge of internal affairs. Our Yuntian Sword Sect has a total of 27 elders in the Core Yuan Realm, and the six you see today are all powerful elders in the sect." 

Chen Changfeng glanced at the fat elder, hesitated for a moment, and decided to introduce them. Since Su Zhan would become a disciple of the Yuntian Sword Sect, he would definitely have to deal with these influential elders in the future, and it would be beneficial for him to get acquainted with them beforehand. 

Chen Changfeng then shifted his gaze to a tall and skinny elder and said, "This person is Elder Miao from the Punishment Hall." 

Elder Miao laughed, "Brother Chen, there's no need to introduce me to him. If this child is not talented as you said, then none of us here will pay much attention to him. So, introducing us to him is pointless." 

"Elder Miao is right. Currently, this child's talent seems to be unremarkable compared to what Brother Chen introduced," another elder agreed. 

"If his talent is only ordinary, then what qualifications does he, as a junior in the Condensation Yuan Realm, have to gather us here and wait for him?" 

"I still can't believe it. As the owner of a divine body, how can he not have extraordinary bone structure talent? How could he achieve a divine body without the best talent?" 

... 

"Alright, enough! Stop talking nonsense, Su Zhan, come forward and test your talent!" Chen Changfeng was slightly annoyed by their remarks and immediately instructed Su Zhan to test his talent. 

"Understood, Elder." Su Zhan nodded and walked to the edge of the water pool, stepping onto a small stone bridge that led to the stone pillar. 

"Is this talent stone pillar really that amazing?" Su Zhan was filled with curiosity as he placed his hand on it, trying to channel his true qi. 

Suddenly, a beam of light emerged from the bottom of the grayish-white stone pillar, leaping up and stopping in the middle of the pillar, about three meters high. 

Miao Zhan laughed, "As expected, this child's talent can be considered high in the Xia Nation, but in our Yuntian Sword Sect, it's only ordinary!" 

"The talent light is three meters... if I remember correctly, when disciples in the inner sect are tested for their talent, the worst among them reaches 3.5 meters. This child can't even reach the average talent level of our inner sect!" 

"For years, the talent light of our Yuntian Sword Sect's inner sect disciples has shone brightly on the talent stone pillar. When compared, this child is far behind!" 

"Ah! According to legend, someone with incredibly strong talent can display a phenomenon of heaven and earth after the talent light overflows from the talent stone pillar. However, I have never seen it myself. I thought Brother Chen had brought an unparalleled genius this time to open our eyes, but now... hmm? The talent light is still rising???" 

The words of an elder were cut off as the talent light on the stone pillar paused for a moment before continuing to rise! 

Everyone, including the elders, Chen Changfeng, and the sect master, was astonished. 

Normally, the talent test displays a person's talent level all at once, and there has never been an occurrence where someone's talent light can continue to rise, so this is the first time such an event has happened to them! 

Could this child be triggering his divine body's state? 

Although it is still hard to believe that someone with Su Zhan's "ordinary" bone structure talent could possess a divine body, seeing the talent light rise, the elders could only speculate in that direction. 

Currently, Su Zhan remained calm. 

The elders were right. His cultivation talent was too weak, even if he had undergone the divine body transformation, his talent would only reach the upper level. Moreover, his divine body was still in the early stage of awakening. It would only bring changes to his body with the improvement of his cultivation level. 

However, what the others didn't know was that besides the divine body, he also had a panel halo! 

Just now, because he wanted to test his original cultivation talent, Su Zhan had closed all his halos. Now, he could open them! 

Cultivation Halo, activate! 

Understanding Halo, activate! 

The light on the talent pillar rose, and it was now less than half a meter away from reaching the top! 

"The talent light is almost reaching the perfection of the talent pillar... this child's talent should be enough to rank in the top ten throughout the Yuntian Sword Sect!" 

"Wait... the talent light is rising again!" 

The elder stammered, pointing at the talent pillar, with an expression of disbelief on his face! 

On the talent pillar, the light spread, and then it continued to condense, as if being compressed by something! 

"This talent level... has surpassed our current first disciple of the Sword Sect, right?" 

"This child's talent is extraordinary, but unfortunately, he doesn't seem to have a divine body!" 

"Attaining the divine body will cause various natural phenomena on a large scale and stimulate the state of the divine body. Although there won't be exaggerated natural phenomena, some specific ones will still appear. It seems Brother Senior Chen was mistaken!" 

"Even though he doesn't have a divine body, with such terrifying talent, it's enough for him to make us assist him in cultivating with our full strength!" 

... 

The eyes of the elders sparkled, and they conversed with enthusiasm. 

They were the elders of the Yuntian Sword Sect, and with the emergence of an unparalleled genius in their sect, they naturally felt happy. 

When the sect master, Qin Jincheng, saw this sight, even his stern face showed a slight smile. 

At this point, Chen Changfeng was already somewhat confused. Before coming to the Yuntian Sword Sect, he had witnessed Su Zhan displaying his divine body and personally confirmed it. 

But now, Su Zhan hasn't even triggered his divine body yet, and his talent level is already extremely terrifying. What would the situation be like if he truly triggered his divine body? 

Has he been underestimating Su Zhan all this time? 

"So, this is the talent level I have when cultivation halo and understanding halo are fully activated?" Su Zhan muttered to himself as he looked at the talent stone pillar. 

It is said that when someone's talent reaches its peak, it will manifest phenomena of heaven and earth. He wondered what kind of phenomena he would generate? 

With this in mind, Su Zhan didn't hesitate and immediately triggered his divine body. Golden light emanated from his body, condensing into the image of a large sun hanging behind him, emitting a powerful and dominant Great Sun aura. 

"Buzz!" 

As the divine body was triggered, the stone pillar trembled violently. Deep and mysterious runes floated above the talent stone pillar, and the entire pillar shone brightly. 

"The divine body! It's truly the divine body! Oh my God!" 

"If I'm not mistaken, this is the Sun God Divine Body! The Sun God Divine Body can be said to be a divine body much stronger than other divine bodies!" 

"Five hundred years ago, a genius with a divine body once tested his talent on the talent stone pillar and triggered the phenomenon of the rising sea and shining moon. I'm curious to see what kind of phenomenon the talent stone pillar will present to express Su Zhan's talent level!" 

... 

In the Fenghua Hall. 

The elders, who had reached the Core Yuan Realm and were considered the strongest experts in the entire Xia Nation, along with Sect Master Qin Jincheng, couldn't contain their excitement. They breathed quickly, widened their eyes, and stared intently at the talent stone pillar.
