The Great Sage of Humanity
Chapter 10, Opportunity

...“Brother Lu, have you reached Enlightenment?” yu Xiao Tiea....

“Why are you asking that?” Lu Ye replied with another question without answering his question.

He pointed at the Storage Bag hanging on his waist.

He had a moment of awareness and nodded in response. "That's right." Then, he asked, “How about you?”

He raised his hand and a faint light bloomed from his palm. It is clear that he has also attained Enlightenment. It was just that he did not know how many Spiritual Points he had unlocked. Unfortunately, it was not something he could ask because they were not so familiar with each other.

The two of them were cultivators who had opened their Spiritual Points, so there were many common topics between them to talk about. Although there were nearly 1,000 people gathered in this place, not many among them had reached Enlightenment. Moreover, those who had reached Enlightenment had extremely low cultivation. Those who were truly talented to cultivate had been brought over by the Evil Moon Valley and then became disciples of the Evil Moon Valley. One could only imagine what happened to them now.

He lowered his voice and said, “Tomorrow's opportunity is very important. You can't just let it pass. Brother Lu, you should show as much of your talent as possible if you have special talent. It will affect your entire future.”

He seems to know something.

He replied, “I understand.”

Even so, he had no special talent. All he had was a Skill Tree that no one could see. Unfortunately, it was impossible for him to reveal the Skill Tree to anyone.

It was not good for him to stay for long among the group of women, so he only said a few more words to her before leaving. There were many enslaved people gathered in this place, but their range could move limited. He looked around for a moment and headed straight towards the corner.

Somewhere in that direction, the brothers from the Liu Family Clan hid behind a group of people and shivered in fear. Their skin turned deathly pale when they saw Lu Ye heading towards them. The moment he arrived in front of them, the two looked even more panicked than before.

"Well, what do you want?" Big brother Liu shouted in a threatening tone even though his heart was trembling. As he spoke, he continued to glance towards the fat cultivator as if trying to seek help.

The only answer he received was a fist that slid towards him and enlarged his eyes nonstop. Only one punch was needed to break his nose and he instantly fell to the ground. Then, Lu Ye kicked Second Brother Liu's stomach. Before Second Brother Liu could fall to the ground, Lu Ye grabbed his hair. "Squeaky. Looks like you don't recognize me anymore.”

Second Brother Liu's expression was filled with pain. He even made the stars spin before his eyes. How could he answer?

Lu Ye gave a cold snort. Exerting strength in his hand, he threw Second Brother Liu behind him. Second Brother Liu fell with his head first to the ground and ate a mouthful of earth. As a result, two of his teeth were broken.

After occupying their place, Lu Ye sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes to meditate. His first Spiritual Points were full of strength, but he was unable to find a place to unlock his second Spiritual Points. He did not continue cultivating, lest he waste his vitality.

At nightfall, the people from the Grand Sky Coalition came to hand out food and bedding. Everyone received some, but Lu Ye did not have enough to fill his stomach. Fortunately, there was some food in Zhou Cheng's Spiritual Bag. Taking a few, he began to eat voraciously.

The people beside him almost drooled when they saw him, but no one dared to step forward to ask him. Ever since he had taught the Liu Family Clan brothers a lesson, he had occupied a large area for himself. It saved him a lot of trouble. After he started refining his vitality into Qi, his eating grew bigger by the day. Therefore, he even managed to eat the dried meat very favorably.

Nothing happened that night. When the next day arrived, Lu Ye was full of energy. He looked forward to the so-called opportunity. Only after breakfast did more than 10 farmers of different styles come to stand in front of the crowd. The person leading them was a middle-aged man. The person stood with his hands behind his back and turned his gaze to the crowd with a small smile. “You, young people, are from different Sects and Clans. After being held captive and enslaved in this place, you have gone through many hardships. But such a life is over. All the Sects in the Grand Sky Coalition recruited talented people. Among you who reach Enlightenment or have the talent to cultivate, all of you will have the chance to join one of the Sects. Take advantage of this opportunity well, and we might be able to fight side by side in the future.” After saying that, he gestured lightly with his hand.

That sweeping motion was accompanied by a burst of Spiritual Strength that enveloped around 100 people. When those people walked forward, the cultivator brought them to one side.

The same goes for the second person…

There were about 1,000 slaves. That was enough to divide between these 10 farmers.

Lu Ye was at the deepest location, so he fell into the hands of the last cultivator. The last group followed the cultivators a short distance away and came to an area where there were other cultivators dressed similarly to the cultivators who led them here. The peasants came forward to maintain order and had everyone march.

Lu Ye stood in the middle of the line. Glancing around, he saw that all the other slaves that were taken away earlier were in the same situation as him. Therefore, he realized that they would undergo some sort of test to see who among these slaves had reached Enlightenment or were suitable for cultivating. Judging from the words of the previous middle-aged cultivator, those who had reached Enlightenment would have an even greater advantage. As for those who had not attained Enlightenment or had the talent to cultivate, they would not be highly rewarded.

After everyone lined up in an orderly manner, the cultivator who led them here took out a table from inside his Storage Bag and sat behind the table. After that, he lifted his head to say, “Let's start.”

The first slave walked up to him on his cue.

Another cultivator asked, “Have you reached Enlightenment?”

The boy shook his head. "NO!"

"okay." The cultivator who asked the question took out the Crystal Ball and handed it to the slave. He instructed, “Put both hands on it.”

The slave did as he was told, but the Crystal Ball did not react.

The cultivator sitting behind the table shook his head. “There is no talent for cultivating. Next one!"

The slave was a little sad and frustrated at those words. He hurriedly said, “I'm not ready! Please let me try again!”

"Next!" The cultivated man flicked his sleeve and the raving slave was swept away and fell to the ground. The scene made all the other slaves in line very uncomfortable. They understood that whether or not they could change their fate would depend entirely on that Crystal Ball. Therefore, their energy was slightly shaken.

The slaves advanced one after another. None of them had the talent to cultivate. It was only after the 13th person placed both his hands on the Crystal Ball that the Crystal Ball that had not reacted until now suddenly shone with a faint blue light.

"Finally! There's one!" The cultivator sitting behind the table smiled. He looked at the boy. "Name."

The slave's face reddened with excitement, and he answered honestly.

The cultivator sitting behind the table took out something that looked like a jade tablet. Inner Strength flowed through his hands and the jade tablet immediately displayed the name of the slave. Handing the jade tablet to the slave, he said, “This body is fine. You will use it in the future. Now, go to the tent there and find my Third Brother to check how talented you are.”

"Yes. Yep. Thank you sir." The slave was holding a jade tablet in his hand as if he was holding a precious treasure and ran backwards. There was a simple tent set up in the back.
