Accidentally Married a Fox God

Chapter 15: Disappointment

The water bowl in front of Mo Cheng was of simple design. It was round, outdated looking and metallic. The only prominent look to this mystical object was a drawing cantered in the middle of the bowl. It was of an elegant sword with a tip of a snake head instead of a sharp blade.

Mo Cheng unhesitatingly shoved his hand into the water bowl. The water rippled from the impact, and Qianqian, Mo Jing and Li Meirong waited in anticipation for the results.

Gradually the surface changed its transparent hue and took on a bright glowing purple shade.

There was only a solid colour of purple coating the bowl now, it reminded Li Meirong of Jelly grape juice.

Gasps of astonishment filled the crowd nearby, even the stern beautiful cultivator lady's shrewd phoenix eyes slightly enlarged at the result.

"It's a genius! A true genius..."

"A rare prodigy showing once every couple of hundreds of years."

"A solid lightning attribute. Very impressive young one. Walk forth to the resting chambers." The cultivator lady never spoke a full sentence this whole day, that goes to show how eye-catching Mo Cheng was right now.

Mo Cheng smiled from ear to ear. What is a lightning attribute? That is the strongest offensive internal power possible. It's difficult to cultivate, the rarest of attributes, but most of the cultivators who managed to ascend to immortality were in fact...Lightning attribute cultivators.

Such was the immensity of the result.

In fact, this was probably the best attribute one could ever wish for.

"Brother Mo Cheng, you're amazing!!"

Qianqian was gushing with happiness, in her excitement she leapt into Mo Cheng's arms, her hands wrapped tightly around his neck. Mo Cheng blushed embarrassingly and patted her head in a doting manner, he then unclasped her tight hold on him, making her pout.

She couldn't believe she fell for such an outstanding man; she was definitely fortunate to have had the opportunity to grow up with him.

Mo Jing went to his brother and hugged his shoulders, he congratulated him without speaking much, but his eyes held all the pride in the world.

In all this excitement Li Meirong got dragged into their happiness and was cheering and congratulating Mo Cheng as well.

Soon Mo Cheng went towards the group of accepted disciples on the side, they too congratulated him excitedly and even the senior disciples of the sect who had to monitor the acceptance procedure went over to speak with Mo Cheng, they were about to rest for the night in the side of the mountain where a collection of wooden cabins were made to accommodate their needs, and were waiting for the remaining contestants results to wrap up.

Shu Qianqian came next, and her results were also impressive, her bowl flared red and blue. Fire and water. Dual attributes. Considered quite talented.

Dual opposing attributes, although not as rare as a single attribute vein wielder, it was definitely impressive. Both supportive and offensive capabilities.

Shu Qianqian was elated. She leapt toward Mo Cheng and was also graced with heaps of praises and congratulations.

Mo Jing's test showed a solid green. Another genius almost unheard of!

Earth attribute was almost strictly supportive, but anyone having a solid vein, a single attribute was such a rarity that it was nothing short of a miracle! These brothers were truly impressive.

Following suit, Mo Jing joined his group on the side.

The other accepted disciples looked at the group as their upcoming prodigies.

Li Meirong's turn came next, she tentatively gazed at the clear waters.

Part of her wanted to be done with this, and another part regretted not being reborn into a powerful, influential family with a lot of spiritual talent.

Unlike her last life, how amazing it would have been if she could actually shake the heavens.

But she was reborn as a simple maid, with quite a horrible fate that she luckily managed to escape by the teeth.

Even if one is not meant for it, one still dreamed.

Li Meirong knew she wasn't brave or adventurous. She was quiet, accepting. Most of her time she used to spend at her old apartment. Her evening afternoon spent with her cats.

She enjoyed the quiet life and the companionship of her pets.

She glanced to her group of newly acquainted friends; they were all standing near each other. The upcoming stallions of this generation, giving her looks of encouragements. Although the odds are slim, but still.

She knew she was no stallion, and not to feel disappointment when nothing would happen.

Whatever comes her way, she would deal with it.

The cultivator lady impatiently gazed at the scar faced young woman in front of her, dawdling in front of the vein testing water bowl. She disliked such hesitant personalities, why is she unsure now if she made her way up until here?

The girl gave her a bad impression.

"Hurry." Was her only response to Li Meirong.

Li Meirong sighed, gazed at the mystical waters, and placed her hand gently inside the cold liquid.

A moment passed, which led to a minute...

The water stayed crystal clear and transparent.

Li Meirong was planning on reigning in her emotions, but she ultimately was unable to stop the feeling of disappointment which engulfed her, to discover that she really was worth nothing here.
