19th City Testing Hall

  Chu Jun's hand tapped the desktop with a rhythmic beat, and after considering for a long time, he finally slapped the table and said: "Alright, let your second brother come and help out. Let's set up this insecticide factory."

  Chu Xiao San finally revealed a heartfelt smile.

  However, setting up a pharmaceutical factory requires at least one million spiritual coins as registered capital, plus the purchase of production equipment and medicinal materials, which will cost at least five hundred million more. Currently, our family's available liquid funds do not exceed 1.5 million, even if we can borrow some from the Spiritual Bank, there is still a huge shortfall.

  The Chu army spoke out their difficulties again.

  "I'll go ask big brother, he should be able to take out a part of it, and second brother should also have some savings, then we can gather some from other relatives, that should be enough."

  Li Yuwen smiled and said.

  "It's best to get this over with as soon as possible, you go fundraise tomorrow and I'll take Xiaoxiao to the Alchemist Association first to register the Dan formula for the insecticide, then we can go to the Spirit Bank for a loan."

  The Chu army nodded.

  The Alchemy Association is a subordinate organization of the Cultivation Alliance, mainly managing the alchemy industry.

  The family of four thus decided on some matters related to opening a factory.

  The next morning, Chu Xiao was still fast asleep with his head covered when he suddenly heard Chu Yao's shouting voice beside him.

  "What's all the commotion so early!" Chu Xiao muttered, turning over and continuing to sleep.

  "Brother, hurry up and take a look, the seeds of that small Adiantum have already sprouted."

  Chu Yao lifted up the quilt.

  "What's the big deal? My activated seeds will be able to sprout within ten hours at most."

  Chu Xiao sat up with an unpleasant expression on his face.

  After dressing and washing up, Chu Xiao came to the balcony, where a few inconspicuous green buds had indeed appeared on the surface of the potted soil.

  In just ten short hours, it can take root and sprout, which seems quite unbelievable. However, this is no ordinary plant, but a spiritual medicine. Especially during cultivation, there is an accelerating liquid that can speed up the growth and development of the spiritual medicine. Moreover, after the seeds are activated, they will quickly absorb the spiritual nutrients in the cultivation process.

  Bring over a bottle of spiritual water, and Chu Xiao slowly poured it on.

  After having breakfast, Li Yuhuan went back to her parents' home to raise money, while Chu Jun brought Chu Xiao and his sister to the Chu family workshop, handed over the shop and workshop matters, and then went to the city testing hall to let Chu Xiao detect the spiritual root again.

  Municipal Testing Hall, directly under the Xiu Zhen Alliance, Zi Yun City Branch, is an official institution.

  Generally speaking, newborns are taken by their parents to undergo a Spiritual Root Test at the Testing Hall in the city between the ages of three to five.

  It is said that once the spiritual root reaches the level of genius, one can receive special subsidies from the Cultivation Alliance and even qualify to study at the Purple Cloud Cultivation Institute.

  This Zi Yun Xiu Zhen Yuan is the top-level Xiu Zhen Yuan in Zi Yun City, except for people with genius-level talent who can enter and study here, others must go through strict assessment to be eligible. Anyway, this place is a sacred land of Xiu Zhen that countless people yearn for, and those with power and influence will try every means to send their children here.

  For the definition of a genius, the Cultivation Union has the most clear-cut definition: a Spiritual Root of 15 points or higher.

  Above genius, there is a higher-level treasure talent, and the spiritual root must reach 20 points or more.

  There is also the legendary "Reversal of Heaven's Gift", which must be above thirty points.

  The City Testing Hall is a building that looks like a temple, very classical and solemn, with many reliefs.

  There are not a few people going in and out, all of whom are adults accompanied by children. Among those who come out, some have faces full of joy, while others are disappointed and disheartened. After all, the height of one's spiritual roots largely determines one's future achievements. Those with high spiritual roots will undoubtedly start higher than those with low spiritual roots.

  Enter the test hall, due to the large number of people, you must queue up and wait.

  It wasn't until after more than half an hour that it was finally Chu Xiao's turn.

  Under the leadership of the staff, Chu Xiao entered a testing room. The testing room was not large, with a strange instrument, the outside of which had a semi-circular cover, and inside there was a crystal bed. On the cover and the crystal bed were engraved many strange and complex array symbols.

  The examiner was a middle-aged man in his forties, wearing a white coat, and he looked quite surprised when Chu Xiao walked in.

  "You're here for a re-examination of your spiritual root, unfortunately, there are only five spiritual roots. Well, lie down on that testing bed and be careful not to move around."

  The examiner took over Chu Xiao's test application form and identity jade slip, scanned it with his mind, and shook his head immediately, with a somewhat regretful tone.

  Generally speaking, people with latent spiritual roots have a high probability of possessing genius talents or even rare and precious talents.

  Chu Xiao's identity was on the jade slip, which stated that he only had five spiritual roots, which was practically a crippled spiritual root.

  This identity jade slip is something that everyone will handle after passing the spiritual root test, and it is also a certificate for future enrollment, work, etc. Only special magical instruments can modify the information in the jade slip, but it's very convenient to check, just need to probe with your mind.

  Chu Xiao entered the testing chamber, looked around and then lay down on the crystal bed.

  Before long, the crystal cover emitted a faint glow and immediately submerged Chu Xiao's figure.

  At this moment, outside the testing device, the examiner looked at the crystal screen and saw that light dots were gradually appearing on the screen. One point, two points, five points... When the light dots reached ten points, the examiner was quite surprised and said: "I didn't expect it to be a high-level hidden spiritual root, unfortunately, the dominant spiritual root is too low."

  Suddenly, his eyelid twitched as he stared at the screen where another light spot reappeared, finally revealing a hint of shock. "This is a top-level stealth spirit root."

  As the light spots on the screen finally stabilized at twelve, the examiner exclaimed in surprise: "Twelve spiritual roots, although not a genius, are still pretty good. What a pity that this top-notch hidden spiritual root is not more prominent, if only it were a bit higher..."

  He shook his head and immediately shut down the testing device.

  Chu Xiao came out of the testing room, and Chu Yao couldn't wait to ask: "Brother, how many points of spiritual root do you have? Did you reach ten points?"

  "See for yourself!"

  Chu Xiao threw over his identity jade tablet.

  "Ah, a Twelve Meridian Spiritual Root, just like Father's!" Chu Yao exclaimed in surprise.

  The Chu army hastily took over the identity jade slip and examined it, immediately exclaiming with a delighted face: "Not bad, twelve spiritual roots, better than I imagined."

  Chu Xiao smiled slightly, thinking to himself that once he completed more system tasks, it would be easy for him to become a genius or even a legendary talent, and reaching the mythical status of a heaven-defying talent wasn't impossible.

  After leaving the City Testing Hall, the three of them rode the Flying Shuttle to the Alchemy Association again to register the Dan formula for the Gu Ling Exterminating Insect Liquid.

  Only after registering the Dan Fang will it take effect and be recognized by the Alchemy Association. Otherwise, even if you set up a manufacturing plant and produce the Ling Xue Mie Chong liquid, it cannot pass the product inspection program of the Alchemy Association. Moreover, without passing the Dan Fang, one does not even have the qualification to open a manufacturing plant.
