Capítulo 158: Too naive

"I am Hu Bo, an Outer Disciple of Serene Ice Palace. I came to this village in search of talented cultivator prospects. All the people under 30 years of age are to come and touch the crystal in my hands," a youth in Daoist robes shouted. "If you have the required talent to become a cultivator, this crystal will glow. The brighter it glows, the more talented you are."

The first to go touch the crystal was a farm boy, a clumsy kid. The boy touched it dumbly and the crystal did not glow. 

"No talent, you may go."

More people accumulated near him and soon, there was a crowd of hands reaching for the crystal.

"Stay in place!" he shouted again.

The crowd scattered, looking worried. 

"Immortal, please forgive us!" An old man kowtowed.

Hu Bo looked coldly at them. He said coldly, "Come to me one by one, there will not be any mercy from here on out."
