Chapter 739: Minutes!

Elder Xu was so excited when he told them all how he had found a genius in the midst of the unknown applicants. His eyes had been shining in hope, and he was puffing out his chest as proudly as he could.

If he could really have found a genius in this lifetime, then his efforts wouldn’t be in vain.

However, this very moment was enough to shatter his heart.

“I should’ve known,” Elder Wang spat, unable to keep it to himself any longer. “She’s obviously not a genius at all, but an ordinary musician.”

It was only after hearing Elder Xu’s words that the hope in his heart had been ignited. However, what he had witnessed was nowhere near the genius he had in mind. Once again, this was another waste of his time.

Even Elder Li couldn’t help but shake his head.

He also had high expectations for the girl, but now, he realized that she wasn’t the person they all were looking for. He sighed, unable to hide his disappointment.

He really didn’t know when the person he was looking for would appear.

If there were no geniuses anymore, then he couldn’t help but feel unfulfilled in his lifetime. After all, he had always hoped that he’d be able to teach a talented student.

Elder Xu didn’t say another word.

Instead, he simply nodded in Yao Tang’s direction. “You’re a member of the Music Association, and you’re also President Tan’s disciple,” he slowly said. “Please don’t be discouraged by the test, and continue to work even harder!”

He obviously meant that she didn’t pass the assessment.

Elder Xu was naturally disappointed, but he couldn’t help but doubt himself. How could this have happened?

When she had performed his test, she passed with flying colors. Could it be that he had performed his own test wrongly?

Elder Xu suppressed the doubt in his heart and simply waved his hand. Since the test was over, there was no need for her to stay here.

Yao Tang stepped out of the room without looking back. It seemed that she couldn’t really care any less about the results.

“We should head out too.” Elder Xu glanced at his other co-elders.

However, before they could even leave, a sound suddenly echoed across the auditorium. Everyone glanced at the source of the sound, and their eyes filled with astonishment.

The instrument was playing!

In the next second, the instrument emitted another sound that was similar to that of a flute. Its tone was even deeper than the flute, echoing a melody that could relax anyone.

Elder Xu immediately turned around, his eyes wide and his mouth open. He couldn’t speak.

His eyes were filled with disbelief.

Elder Li and Elder Wang also walked to the instrument, staring unblinkingly at it. It was as if they also couldn’t believe the sound that had just come out.

No matter how many times they pinched themselves, they were still quite alert. They really weren’t dreaming!

The instrument played for about five minutes before falling silent.

The elders all shared a look.

“That instrument…” Elder Li finally said. “It played.”

“Obviously!”

Elder Wang shot him a glare.

The instrument played for five minutes!

Five minutes!

The thing in front of them was a percussion instrument that had come from ancient origins. Its purpose was to find someone who had a true talent in music.

Only those with true talent would be able to resonate with the instrument.

Not only did one have a high musical talent, but one must also have an extremely powerful spiritual energy to be able to communicate with it.

They had thought that Yao Tang failed.

But she managed to play the instrument for five minutes!

She’s a genius!

All of them were able to play the instrument for about ten minutes, but it had taken them a lot of practice to get to where they were now. Yao Tang managed to do it in just one try, yet they rejected her.

They didn’t even give her a chance!

Elder Li stiffened. “What should we do now?”

The genius was already right in front of him, but he rejected her! This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and she had managed to blow it!

What were they going to do?
