The people of Maple Leaf Country shivered.
The surrounding Xia Nation people cast curious glances at them from time to time, giving them the illusion of country folk entering the city.
But now, under the eaves of others, they dared not act rashly.
"We will soon obtain cultivation techniques, and then we won't have to fear these Xia Nation people!"
"Let's endure for now. I heard everyone's aptitude is different, and ours must be stronger than these Xia Nation people!"
"That man is looking at us. Don't say anything bad about Xia Nation; he might hear it!"
"......"
A person's fame precedes them, and the tree's shadow follows. To them, Chu Yang was a terrifying great demon king.
If it were in the past, seeing Xia Nation conduct such a bloody trial, they would have condemned Xia Nation in every aspect, labeling it as inhumane.
But times have changed. Look at what happened to the United States!
With their "big daddy" fallen, how could they dare to act rashly!
Xue Qianwei whispered to Chu Yang, "So many foreigners, why don't you seem very happy?"
Chu Yang sighed heavily and said, "Things might not be as smooth as I thought."
"Ah?"
Xue Qianwei thought Chu Yang meant these foreigners were going to cause trouble. She clenched her small fists and said, "Are they going to cause trouble? You're so powerful, what are you afraid of?"
"That's not the reason. You'll know when they get their aptitude assessed later."
With a sense of curiosity, after the people in front had gone through, it was finally the turn of these long-awaited Maple Leaf Country people.
Their excitement was no less than that of the first batch of Xia Nation people who stayed up all night waiting for the Scripture Pavilion to open.
As a result, after the assessment, everyone was stunned!
"Inferior aptitude? What the heck! How can I have inferior aptitude?"
"What? You also have inferior aptitude?"
"Is there no higher grade? What the heck?"
"Oh no! I also have inferior aptitude!"
"None of us reached medium aptitude?"
After exchanging with each other, the emotions of these Maple Leaf Country people became very agitated!
Because they had just seen that when the Xia Nation people were assessed for their aptitude, even every two hundred people could produce one or two with superior aptitude, and there were many with medium aptitude.
Yet, when it came to them, it was all inferior aptitude. Who could accept this?
"Protest! Inside job! You are insulting us!"
"Why do we all have inferior aptitude?"
"This is blatant insult! You must give us an explanation!"
"......"
The viewers watching the livestream were also startled by the agitated state of these foreigners. Some who understood the language translated for everyone.
"It seems they all have inferior aptitude, so they suspect foul play."
"Heh heh! It seems foreigners are not suited for immortal cultivation. Wait, why do I feel like laughing?"
"This is a bit too much, isn't it? Is Brother Immortal deliberately toying with them?"
"Who cares, it will be fun if they start a commotion. Brother Immortal is not someone they can mess with!"
"......"
Xue Qianwei's eyes widened: "Is there really a problem? Is the [Aptitude Assessment Stone] broken? It can't be that everyone has inferior aptitude, right?"
Chu Yang shook his head and said, "The situation is more troublesome than this, and it's an irreversible trouble!"
As these people were shouting and yelling after their aptitude assessment, Chu Yang floated down from the private platform and hovered above this group of people.
Some who were not afraid of death directly questioned, "Why did you make all our Maple Leaf Country people have inferior aptitude? Is this how your Xia Nation people treat guests?"
"Exactly! Even if you are powerful, you can't insult us like this!"
"Show us our true aptitude!"
Even more people directly rallied, shouting, "We need fairness!"
Others might have felt strength from him and shouted in unison, "We need fair..."
The accompanying Maple Leaf Country general, Byron, was greatly alarmed. These scoundrels, were they tired of living?
Had they forgotten how terrifying the person in front of them was, accustomed to freedom in Maple Leaf Country?
As expected, before the momentum of these people could build up, they felt a terrifying oppressive force pressing down on them.
Everyone's legs involuntarily went weak, and they knelt on the ground. A feeling of suffocation surged into their hearts, as if the young man in front of them could end their lives with just a thought.
In fact, it was true. With Chu Yang's current strength, dealing with these ordinary people was just a matter of a thought.
"Before you came, you should have been warned not to cause trouble here. Do you think I am easy to deal with?"
A cold killing intent emanated, making people feel as if they had fallen into an ice cellar.
The Maple Leaf Country general, Byron, quickly ran over, trembling, and bowed frantically to Chu Yang to apologize, "I'm sorry! They are new and don't know the rules. Mr. Chu, please spare their lives! They just expressed their confusion in the wrong way..."
Chu Yang's gaze shifted to Byron, and he said coldly, "If Xia Nation people are not allowed to cause trouble here, let alone you foreigners? Who gave you the courage?"
Byron knew Chu Yang was very angry. He didn't want his countrymen to be sent to heaven in an instant like those hundreds of pilots from the United States!
"I'm sorry! I am truly sorry!"
Chu Yang stood with his hands behind his back and explained indifferently, "There is no problem with the Aptitude Assessment Stone, and there is no problem with your immortal cultivation aptitude. The reason everyone has inferior aptitude is simply because your ancestors did not leave you the bloodline of immortal cultivators."
In front of everyone, Chu Yang continued to explain, "This land, a long, long time ago, was called Shenzhou! At that time, when the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was abundant, cultivators were everywhere, and Immortal Emperors contended for glory! The reason why so many people with special bloodlines appeared was precisely because our blood carries the lineage left by the cultivators of that ancient era."
"Even though the world has changed, the spiritual energy has dried up, and the civilization of immortal cultivation is no more, this bloodline remains in the bodies of the Xia Nation people like an imprint. Therefore, you see Wang Teng with the True Dragon bloodline, Meng Zibin with the Nine-Infant bloodline, and various other special constitutions."
"It is regrettable that you Westerners did not have an era of immortal cultivation. There is nothing in your blood that can resonate with immortal cultivation. Therefore, it is very normal for it to be much more difficult for you to produce someone with superior aptitude compared to the Xia Nation people."
"What I want to tell you is that aptitude does not represent everything, nor is it only people with high aptitude who can ascend to the immortal throne! Don't think you are inferior just because your aptitude is poor. Real strength lies in combat ability! Alright, the explanation is complete. Those who caused trouble earlier will be stripped of their qualification to enter the Scripture Pavilion. The next batch, prepare!"
