When Qin Fengming returned to his residence, he had already finished every skill competition he could take part in. However, determining which cultivators would be accepted by Manghuang Mountain would have to wait until all the cultivators had completed their contests, after which Manghuang Mountain would make its final judgment.
Qin Fengming had completed all four contests—alchemy, artifact refining, formations, and talisman crafting—in just two months, and his results were outstanding. This would certainly draw the attention of the experts of Manghuang Mountain.
His decision to abandon his usual low-key approach had only been made after careful consideration.

The lowest cultivation level was the Foundation Establishment Realm.
Since Qin Fengming had decided to join Manghuang Mountain, he naturally had his own considerations. He wanted to learn some profound skills.
