Back to Shentian Sect.
The entire disciple recruitment ceremony was in full swing. Thousands of disciples eager to join Shentian Sect swiftly began various testing projects.
Those who failed directly in the tests wore expressions of frustration.
For those with strong talents, these testing projects were a breeze. In reality, whether to accept disciples or not depended on their innate constitution. These activities were just there to let those lacking in strength understand their limitations and withdraw voluntarily.
Boom!
Soon, at the final testing point, the practical combat against demonic beasts, a spiritual fire burst forth.
"Innate Fire Spirit Body, I want him!"
In the instant this flame appeared, an elder already recognized it as an Innate Fire Spirit Body. Almost immediately, he spoke up, eager to snatch this disciple, fearing someone else might claim him first.
Being the first to speak gave you the right to be the first choice for the disciple.
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, another spiritual water attacked a tiger demon on the other side.
"Innate Water Spirit Body? Are you willing to join my sect?"
"Mysterious Yin Body, you are destined to be my disciple!"
...
As the tests progressed gradually, the disciples with strong talents started showcasing their abilities, and one by one, the elders began accepting disciples.
However, Lin Xuan, without mentioning any names, left some talented youths with a slightly disappointed expression. Although they didn't dare to refuse the elders who had already spoken, as opportunities like this were rare, they weren't sure whether Lin Xuan would accept them. Despite being talented, they didn't want to assume too much.
What puzzled everyone was that, until now, there were not many highly talented disciples, and almost all of them had been chosen by other elders. Lin Xuan had yet to express interest in any disciple.
Was he not planning to accept disciples?
Even the Sect Master Shen Wufeng's expression showed a hint of surprise. The quality of these disciples this time was quite good, and it was rare to see so many innate bodies in previous years.
"The testing has already started; you can't enter!"
At this moment, a commotion came from the entrance.
Then, a childish voice was heard:
"Our village is a bit far away, and it took a long time for us to get here. Can we make an exception?"
Everyone turned their attention to the entrance and saw a young boy. He was younger than most of the people present.
"No! The time has passed!"
A guarding disciple said sternly.
Village?
When people heard the boy's words, their expressions became somewhat strange, and some even stifled laughter.
They almost thought some child had come to the wrong place. These youths were outstanding individuals from various cities and families. They couldn't fathom what extraordinary qualities a little fellow from a village could possess. After all, the probability of such a thing happening was incredibly low!
While the crowd had odd expressions, Lin Xuan's gaze was concentrated on this little fellow. He looked surprised!
Because, in front of him, the talent information of this little guy was displayed.
Name: Ye Hao
Age: Eleven
Realm: None
Talent: Innate Supreme Being Bone (Extracted)
"Innate Supreme Being Bone..."
Lin Xuan silently pondered over these words.
As a Royal Duke realm individual, how could he not know what the term "Innate Supreme Being Bone" represented?
Innate Supreme Being!
In this world, only individuals with unparalleled talent, favored by the heavens during their birth, would possess something like the Supreme Being Bone. It signified unparalleled talent and meant that the person with the Supreme Being Bone would undoubtedly become a supreme figure in the future! Surpassing even Kings Realm!
A King Realm expert could overturn a dynasty, but a Supreme Being could dominate an entire domain with just one hand!
This was many times more powerful than innate spirit bodies like the innate fire or water spirit body! It wasn't even in the same league.
At this moment, Lin Xuan felt that his wait just now was absolutely meaningful.
Suddenly, Lin Xuan's heart became extremely excited. If he accepted Ye Hao as his disciple, it meant he would receive the enhanced version of the Supreme Being Bone as a reward!
Compared to his already outstanding talent in Shentian Sect, it was a world of difference!
However, he noticed the two words "extracted" after the Supreme Being Bone.
"System, what does it mean that the Supreme Being Bone was extracted?" He asked the system.
"Host, it means that his Innate Supreme Being Bone was forcibly removed from him by a secret technique and transplanted into someone else's body!" The system replied.
"Forcibly transplanted the Supreme Being Bone?" Lin Xuan's expression showed slight surprise. After all, to plunder the Supreme Being Bone, one would have to endure unimaginable pain! There might even be a risk to life, and the chances of survival were extremely low! Even if one survived, their body would suffer severe damage!
He looked at the resolute face of the little guy and sighed inwardly: What has this little fellow experienced!
"However, system, if I accept him as my disciple with his Supreme Being Bone already extracted, will I still receive rewards?" Lin Xuan asked.
"Of course!" The system replied.
Upon receiving this answer, Lin Xuan looked again. Today, he had decided to accept this disciple.
"Let him in!" Lin Xuan shouted from the high platform.

I am going to go much further ahead with the story on my patreon, so if you could support me there please go to https://patreon.com/MangaTacos
I also have plans to turn this into a manhua which I will be funding with the monthly donations I get from Patreon. My goal is to reach about 100 patrons to get the artist started. The more patrons I get, the more artists I will be able to hire and get the story into a manhua much quicker.
I am also writing a light novel series which is more of a Shounen style story. I hope to see you all there!
