"Too terrifying, he actually reached the eight and a half stars, and is only second to my Thunder Temple's number one genius!"
"If Jiao Lie reverts back to his original body, he could at least be a 9 stars expert, right?"
"Humph, this Jiao Lie is from the Spirit Demon Race, he has lived for a hundred years, how can he compare to the genius of our Thunder Temple?"
"That's true. Although demi-humans have long lifespans, cultivating is very difficult and requires time to settle. Furthermore, their reproduction ability is not as good." We humans are blessed by the heavens, so our training is much faster than theirs. "
When these words landed in the ears of the Illusory Water Lei Jiao Family youth that was speaking, he could not help but glare fiercely at him. The Disciple of Thunder Temple who was speaking earlier immediately shrunk his neck and swallowed his saliva.
Chapter 1152 - Breaking the Record?
"The test is over, get out of the way."
Middle-aged Elder said.
"What are you hanging around for? If I had the Dragon Becoming, I would definitely stomp all of the Ling Family's geniuses!" Jiao Lie said this in a bad mood before retreating.
Now, it was Ye Xuan's turn.
As he was only a First Stage of Ghost Passive Boundary, not many people noticed him as they were all discussing amongst themselves.
"For this test, I'll barely be able to get six stars."
Ye Xuan did not want to show off too much and immediately threw out a punch.
However, the moment his fist entered the Freezing Steel Stone Monument, he regretted it.
"This is bad!"
Ye Xuan's face changed.
Because he wanted to hide his strength, he had kept his trump card hidden. This fist didn't actually hit three inches, it was only two inches.
3 inches was the standard of a 6-star esper. If they didn't reach 6-star, they would be eliminated.
"Two inches and eight inches and …"
Middle-aged Elder sensed and said, but before he could finish, Ye Xuan suddenly made his move.
"What are you doing?"
The Middle-aged Elder was furious. Everyone had only tested their strength once, yet Ye Xuan had still dared to execute two punches.
"Bam!"
Another fist imprint appeared. The entire arena suddenly turned silent.
"This boy is in trouble. He actually disregarded the rules. Did he think that he would pass after another punch?"
"Ling Qiang is very old-fashioned, this brat disregards the rules, even core disciples cannot avoid a scolding."
"Oh, pity him!"
Some of the surrounding disciples revealed sympathetic expressions, and some revealed a look of schadenfreude, as if they were watching a good show.
Below the stage, Ling Xiao and Ling Yun's faces changed as they prepared to jump up the stage.
"Trash is trash. Do you think you can get rid of trash by testing me again?"
Jiao Lie had a look of disdain on his face as he muttered to himself. But when he glanced at the second fist imprint that Ye Xuan had made, his expression suddenly turned ugly.
"What, four inches three, eight and a half stars evaluation!"
Ling Qiang was also aware of it and immediately frowned.
What the hell was going on? Ye Xuan's first punch was only eight centimeters, not even reaching a six star rating.
However, his second punch had actually hit three, four inches, and reached eight and a half stars.
"Elder, I'm sorry, my first punch was wrong." Ye Xuan smiled guiltily.
"This …"
Ling Qiang was stunned.
First Stage of Ghost Passive Boundary, to be able to use eight and a half stars's evaluation, was this even possible?
You have to know, the number one person in the history of the Thunder Temple had a 9 star evaluation when he used the Ghost Passive Boundary.
And Ye Xuan, he actually made a new record?
Just now, Ye Xuan made a mistake, and anxiously made a punch, although he did not use Beast Master Violent on the second strike, he used all his strength.
The eight and a half stars was exactly the same as the Jiao Lie from before.
However, Jiao Lie was a realm higher than Ye Xuan, he was a Second Stage of Ghost Passive Boundary.
"How is this possible? He must have cheated! "
Jiao Lie immediately felt that something was amiss and immediately jumped out to point at Ye Xuan's nose and shouted.
He was from the Illusory Water Lei Jiao, a Goblin Tribe.
The Monster race specialized in body-tempering. Although they hadn't changed back to their original forms, they were still stronger than ordinary humans. After all, they had lived for a hundred years.
But now, Ye Xuan, a human who was around twenty-five years of age, with a realm even lower than his, actually had the same evaluation as him.
Not only did he not believe it, even the surrounding Disciple of Thunder Temple were the same.
Ling Qiang raised his eyebrows, and in his heart, he was no longer convinced. He said to Ye Xuan: "Try hitting me again?"
"Yes sir!"
Ye Xuan wiped off his cold sweat and threw another punch at the Freezing Steel Stone Monument.
"Four inches, eight star rating!"
Middle-aged Elder frowned.
This time, Ye Xuan's results actually fell.
"I'm sorry Elder, I just broke through to the Ghost Passive Boundary, and I'm not used to power yet, so I accidentally used the Vital Air …" Ye Xuan quickly explained.
After hearing his reminder, everyone's eyes widened in realization.
The Vital Air, it had to be the Vital Air!
"So that's how it is."
Ling Qiang nodded his head slightly. That scene just now was so sudden, perhaps he had sensed wrongly and did not sense that Ye Xuan had used the Vital Air, which was why he had the evaluation of the eight and a half stars.
However, this time he could accurately feel that Ye Xuan did not use the Vital Air, so the four star evaluation was effective.
"Like I said, how can it surpass me?"
Jiao Lie snorted coldly.
Ling Qiang shot a glance at him and said: "Alright, you have tested it again. Initially, it was not worth it, but since your results are not bad, let's just forget about it."
Even if it was a disciple of the Ling Family, they would at most be at seven and a half when it came to First Stage of Ghost Passive Boundary. For Ye Xuan to actually be able to hit eight stars, this had still set a new record.
"Thank you, Elder!"
Ye Xuan cupped his fists in thanks, heaved a sigh of relief, and walked down the stage.
"Ye Xuan, you're really something. You're actually the same as me."
Ling Xiao couldn't help but say when he saw Ye Xuan come down.
As a disciple of the Ling Family, his Second Stage of Ghost Passive Boundary was only an eight star evaluation.
Ye Xuan, on the other hand, had just joined the Thunder Temple and became a core disciple.
However, at this time, in the corner of the arena s examination.
"Father, what's wrong?"
The middle-aged man asked in surprise.
"Do you know that kid?" The white-haired old man asked.
"He doesn't seem to be a child of my Ling Family, but he seems to be friends with Ling Xiao." Middle-aged man glanced and shook his head.
"With my Spiritual Knowledge, he did not obtain the Vital Air just now. That four inch three achievement is real." The white-haired old man mumbled.
"What? Is that true?"
The middle-aged man was extremely surprised.
The entire Ling Family could not find a single First Stage of Ghost Passive Boundary that could give such an evaluation.
"He probably doesn't want to offend the Illusory Water Lei Jiao Family, so he hid his strength. "This brat is quite a talented person. You should go and investigate his roots. If he is clean, you should be able to nurture him."
The old man ordered.
"Yes sir!"
… ….
The test continued.
Originally, everyone thought that Thunder Temple had produced yet another monster. They didn't expect that he had accidentally used the Vital Air, so they didn't really feel that it was a big deal.
Reaching eight stars in Body Test was nothing, after all it was just a test, and the third round was an actual battle. With Ye Xuan's realm of First Stage of Ghost Passive Boundary, he probably wouldn't be able to enter the top thirty.
Four of the Illusory Water Lei Jiao Family s were tested, of which Jiao Lie was evaluated by the eight and a half stars, and the other three were all 8 stars.
As for Jiao Chong from the Third Stage of Ghost Passive Boundary, he was assigned to the tenth and final group.
Finally, the Body Test was about to enter its final phase.
The Illusory Water Lei Jiao Family's Jiao Chong had also finally ascended the stage.
Everyone widened their eyes. They wanted to see just how capable the number one genius of the young generation of Illusory Water Lei Jiao Family was.
Third Stage of Ghost Passive Boundary, how many stars could he hit?
Very quickly, it was Jiao Chong's turn.
"Let's begin the test."
Ling Qiang said.
Chapter 1153 - Soul Test
"Let's begin the test."
Ling Qiang was also very focused, he wanted to see how capable Jiao Chong was and whether or not he had hidden his strength.
After all, he was a member of the Ling Family, and the Illusory Water Lei Jiao Family was about to threaten the Ling Family, so he wanted to see whether the number one genius that the Illusory Water Lei Jiao had groomed surpassed or was a little inferior to the number one genius of the Ling Family.
Without saying a word, Jiao Chong clenched his fist and exploded out.
"Bam!"
The Freezing Steel Stone Monument was hit with a fist.
"Four inches eight, nine and a half star!"
A touch of Dazzle Light flashed past the eyes of Ling Qiang's Elder.
If it was a little more, then it would be a ten star evaluation. This was a little different from the Ling family's number one genius.
After all, the number one genius of the Ling Family, Ling Zhan Tian, was able to achieve a strength of five inches one during the Third Stage of Ghost Passive Boundary, surpassing ten stars.
But don't forget, Jiao Chong only took human form and did not revert back to his original form.
"This Illusory Water Lei Jiao Family, is indeed a big threat!"
A light flashed in the eyes of the surrounding Ling Family Strongman s as they thought to themselves.
The s below also sighed in their hearts.
"This kid, he's already lived for a hundred years and still doesn't know how to endure. If we become a thorn in the Ling family's side, we'll definitely be the first to be eliminated or suppressed …"
The Strongman leading the team was very angry, but this Jiao Chong was the son of the Illusory Water Lei Jiao Family's Patriarch, he did not dare to scold him.
"Alright, let's continue the test!"
Ling Qiang shouted.
Very quickly, his Body Test was complete. Over a hundred and fifty people, only seventy or so were qualified.
Next, was the Soul Strength test.
This Soul Strength test was actually very simple, it could be completed in one go.
Everyone jumped onto the arena and stood in a circle. It was fine even if they didn't have a physical body. After all, it was just a test.
Of course, the combat exam required one's physical body and soul to be qualified to participate.
Following that, Ling Qiang took out a golden bell from the Heaven & Earth Ring.
"Is this the Soul-calling Clock of my Thunder Temple?"
"Definitely not. This is only a copy."
"Even if it is a copy, it is still a very powerful Heaven-through Device. It is said that it can directly attack a person's soul. The Soul Strength test, requires one to hold on for 12 chimes, if they fall before then, the test will be a failure. "
Some of the surrounding disciples recognized this large golden bell.
At this time, Ling Qiang said: "Everyone stand properly, the next thing to do is the Soul Strength assessment. I ring the bell every three breaths, and every time I take a bell chime, adding the evaluation of half a star, only people who have endured past twelve chimes can pass. Other than that, this test cannot be blocked using either the Vital Air or the Vientiane Force. "
The surrounding Tester nodded, showing their understanding.
Ye Xuan blended into the crowd and stood there quietly. He did not know how long his Soul Strength could last.
"Alright, the test begins!"
Ling Qiang looked around, and then smashed his fist on the Soul-calling Clock.
"Buzz!"
A melodious gong rang out. Although it sounded very ordinary, the gong was captivating.
If the people from the First Stage of Vientiane Boundary heard this bell, their souls would probably be scattered and they would become a masterless shell.
Fortunately, this stage was large enough, and those who didn't take the test were far away, so it wouldn't affect them.
The first bell tolled, and it was only a half-star evaluation. Six stars was only enough to pass, so no one else in the area showed any signs of discomfort.
"Buzz!"
Three breaths of time later, Elder Ling Qiang once again threw out a punch, and the bell once again rang out.
The second sound!
"Buzz!"
Third echo!
All of these were just appetizers. However, when the tenth bell rang, some people began to feel dizzy.
Without the Vital Air and the Vientiane Force, the bell sounds would directly attack the souls of everyone here, and there were already some people who were starting to shake.
"Buzz!"
The eleventh bell sound rang out, and immediately after, someone's eyes turned white, and they fell backwards.
Seeing that, Thunder Temple experts immediately rushed in from outside the stage and carried the fallen person away. If these people continued to stay in the arena, their souls would suffer heavy damage, and their souls might even perish.
A Disciple of Thunder Temple who had been carried out also recovered after he had left. He looked around at his surroundings and sighed helplessly.
The eleventh bell couldn't hold out much longer, so it was still a 5-star evaluation. Only after the eleventh bell could it be considered a 5-star evaluation.
Looks like he has to pay attention to soul cultivation.
"Buzz!"
The twelfth ring of the bell rang out, and many more people fell. As long as they were able to survive this one ring, then the soul test would be considered a pass.
Amongst the people participating in the test, there were some who paid attention to the cultivation of the body and some to the cultivation of the soul. Of course, the majority of the people who trained in the soul were, after all, connected to the soul and Vientiane Force.
Therefore, the number of people who managed to make it through this round was quite a bit more than the number of people who had qualified.
However, what followed next was a large number of people falling down one after another.
"Buzz!"
The thirteenth bell sound rang out, and more than ten people's eyes rolled back as they fell onto the arena.
At this time, there were more than fifty people still standing, almost all of them being Second Stage of Ghost Passive Boundary s.
"Oh? Not bad, you actually have a few First Stage of Ghost Passive Boundary s. "
Ling Qiang was slightly surprised.
In fact, the First Stage of Ghost Passive Boundary s that could last for more than ten bell rings were considered spoiled girls amongst their peers. However, since the test here was to test the standards to
enter the Thunder Forbidden Land, the requirements would naturally be higher.
One breath.
Two breaths.
In the span of two breaths, another person fell onto the stage. With that, Ling Qiang used the Vientiane Force to throw him out of the stage.
The test continued.
"Buzz!"
The fourteenth bell sound rang out.
As long as one was able to last for three breaths, it would be a seven star evaluation.
The people outside were guessing, how many First Stage of Ghost Passive Boundary's Tester would have such an evaluation?
A single breath passed.
"Plop!"
Someone had fallen, one.
After two breaths, two of them fell.
In the third breath, everyone from the First Stage of Ghost Passive Boundary fell.
No, there was one more!
"Damn, why isn't that person falling yet?"
"Wasn't he the one with the Body Test and First Stage of Ghost Passive Boundary realm, who was able to get an eight star evaluation?"
"So powerful, his physique and Soul Strength are both so high, his fighting strength must be not weak, right?"
The person that the surrounding Disciple of Thunder Temple s were discussing with was Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan did not care about the mere fourteen Soul-calling Clock bells. Hearing it now, he did not have any problems with it.
"Buzz!"
The fifteenth bell sound, Ye Xuan still persisted on.
However, at this time, the people from the Second Stage of Ghost Passive Boundary already had some symptoms.
Chapter 1154 - Just Won't Fall!
"Plop!"
It had only been two breaths of time, and several more core disciples of the Thunder Temple had fallen.
"That person is so strong. Those with Second Stage of Ghost Passive Boundary s have already fallen. He is still standing there."
"Soul Strength is comparable to Second Stage of Ghost Passive Boundary, and his physique has also reached eight stars, why have I never heard of this person before?"
"I saw him together with Senior Brother Ling Xiao just now. Could it be that he just joined us recently?"
The surrounding people began to guess.
A genius like Ye Xuan should not be unknown.
