Finished talking, he even looked at Ye Yuan rather disdainfully.
This kind of fellow with meager strength actually followed Baili Qingyan and won lying down, getting the strongest battle achievement of the Shadowmoon Sect's entrance examination, really hit the jackpot.
"Alright, continue reading out the results!" Deacon Hong said coolly.
Qian Ye's mood instantly became much better. But his vigilance toward Ye Yuan also grew stronger.
Sixth Firmament Divine Lord and he could do it to this step, how dreadful would it be after he grew up in the future?
But he believed that Ye Yuan absolutely could not live long.
He could tell that Jiang Xueyan was not aware of Ye Yuan's astonishing achievements beforehand.
Her action was equivalent to offending Ye Yuan to the core.
With that kid's temperament, he absolutely would not walk closely with the Immortal Abode lineage.
In this case, Ye Yuan had offended all three major lineages before even entering the sect.
As well as the Devil Elephant lineage.
The Devil Elephant lineage's strength was not weak at all.
The results at the back also did not have anything to pay attention to anymore. Everyone was marveling at Baili Qingyan's strength and lamenting at Ye Yuan's dog-shit luck.
"Alright, everybody, rest for three days, and enter the second round assessment!" Deacon Hong said in a clear voice.
The moment it ended, Baili Qingyan pulled Jiang Xueyan to one side and complained, "Senior Apprentice Sister, how could you do that? You're making me unjust and disloyal like this!"
Jiang Xueyan smiled coldly when she heard that and said, "Justice and loyalty? Can justice and loyalty make you become strong? The Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave is about to arrive, you must let your strength become stronger, and have to suppress your opponents ruthlessly. And this kid's appearance will make the final result very difficult to predict. If he can't break through to the Celestial Deity Realm, it's still alright. But if he really breaks through in the 200 plus years? At that time, who can be his match? If not looking on the account of your face, I'd have killed him at the Shadowmoon Mountain Range!"
Baili Qingyan had an indignant look on her face. But when she recalled Master's great trust toward her and thought of the sect's ardent hopes, it was seriously hard to choose.
She thought of Ye Yuan again, feeling very depressed in her heart.
Why did he have to swallow his pride and endure in silence, and not argue for himself?
What in the world was this guy thinking?
She desperately wanted to go and apologize to Ye Yuan, but Jiang Xueyan guarded her without leaving a step, making her unable to leave at all.
Chapter 1793 - Those Who Find It Hard Don't Know, Those Who Know Won't Find It Hard
After three days of rest and recuperation, the disciples taking part in the examination were all full of high spirits, returning to their peak states once more.
Deacon Hong turned in the direction of the sect and directly bowed down.
"Shadowmoon Sect disciple, Hong Xiao, respectfully invites the Jadelight Drum!"
While talking, Deacon Hong took out a small flag, poured divine essence into it, and directly plugged it into the void.
Rumble!
The void immediately emitted intense tremors, rumbling sounds lingering on incessantly.
Amidst everyone's shock gazes, a huge drum slowly emerged from the void.
"Argh! My ears!"
"I … I can't hear anymore!"
The humming sounds that the huge drum emitted shocked until everyone's eardrums hurt.
Those slightly weaker ones even directly spewed out a mouthful of blood, their internal organs already injured.
"This … is the melody of Great Dao!"
Ye Yuan's brows raised up as he marveled a little.
Regarding this kind of mysterious feeling, Ye Yuan was not foreign to it.
Back then when he preached on Dao at the fiend race, he had once triggered Great Dao Heavenly Melody. The sound that this Jadelight Drum gave off achieved the same wondrous effect with different means.
It was just that the Great Dao Heavenly Melody that Ye Yuan triggered belonged to Alchemy Dao.
While the Jadelight Drum's melody of Great Dao was extremely aggressive. Clearly, it was a Dao with extremely strong offensive power.
Ye Yuan was secretly startled in his heart and said, "Looks like this Shadowmoon Sect is indeed extraordinary. This Jadelight Drum should be a top-level true god mystic treasure, its power unimaginable. Just the slight aftermath of the vibrations of the drum surface have such power."
Toward this kind of Great Dao melody, Ye Yuan accepted it calmly.
But Baili Qingyan and the rest secretly revolved divine essence, blocking this impact.
Gradually, the Jadelight Drum's vibration noises subsided. Everyone immediately heaved a sigh of relief.
Deacon Hong's gaze swept over everyone slightly and said majestically, "The people who vomited blood just now can leave."
Those people who vomited blood were all incomparably depressed, but they could only leave helplessly.
"I've long heard that the Jadelight Drum's power is boundless, but I didn't expect that it's actually so terrifying!"
"If it's unleashed, probably even Celestial Deity powerhouses can be instantly killed too, right?"
Regarding the Jadelight Drum's power, these people were all extremely shocked too.
After those people left, Deacon Hong continued slowly: "Now, the second round assessment begins. No matter what method you all use, as long as you can make the Jadelight Drum sound out, it's considered passing the assessment. People who pass the assessment will become my Shadowmoon Sect's inner-disciple. People who fail will become miscellaneous affairs disciples. If you aren't willing to become a miscellaneous affairs disciple, you can also leave. However, this old man warns you all first, live within your means! Your attacks, the Jadelight Drum will return it with several times the force. It might directly collapse your physical bodies."
Deacon Hong's words made the group of disciples feel slightly alarmed.
This Jadelight Drum's power was seriously too terrifying.
Striking the drum without cultivation attainments was equivalent to seeking death.
"Alright, now, you all cast spells in reverse-order according to the results of the first round assessment," Deacon Hone said in a clear voice.
The first one to take the field was a very lean guy.
Only to see him leap up, arrive in midair. Beckon his hand, a metal rod came into his hands.
"Limitless Astral Cudgel!"
The lean man brandished the metal stick and smashed over toward the Jadelight Drum.
Bang!
Only to hear a scream, the Jadelight Drum did not sound out, but his right arm that gripped the stick directly exploded into pieces.
When Duan Qinghong saw this scene, he said scornfully, "Heh, really foolish! Does he think it's beating an ordinary drum? Choose a metal rod and it can sound out?"
When Han Yong saw this scene, his expression changed slightly too and said to the Ye Yuan beside him, "Fine lad, that kid just now, his strength wasn't weak. He's actually crippled just like that?"
Ye Yuan said coolly, "What this Jadelight Drum tests isn't strength, but comprehension toward Dao. Using brute force will only accomplish the very opposite. The stronger the brute force, the greater the countershock-force. He only had one arm crippled, it's considered light already. If you went up, your entire person would probably explode into nothing."
Han Yong chuckled and said, "I wouldn't be as stupid as him."
Ye Yuan gave him a glance and said coolly, "There's naturally no problem with your passing the test. But, it's impossible for you to want to win Zhao Zhao."
Han Yong's expression choked up, involuntarily revealing an aggrieved look.
Their Thundercloud Sect and the Devil Elephant Sect are sworn enemies.
Han Yong and Zhao Zhao were also lifetime enemies.
It was just that no matter how hard he worked, he kept on being unable to surpass Zhao Zhao.
This had always been his heart knot.
"Ye Yuan, don't smack the face when hitting people, don't rake up one's shortcomings when picking on people. You being like this, you make me very depressed!" Han Yong said gloomily.
Ye Yuan smiled and said, "I'll teach you a move that can let you overpower Zhao Zhao, what do you think?"
Han Yong's eyes lit up and he said excitedly, "For real? You don't fool me. Otherwise, we won't be brothers anymore."
Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Fool you for what? This round is as easy as turning my hand over to me."
The moment these words came out, not just Han Yong, even the Yang Fan by the side also revealed skeptical looks.
The two of them did not know Ye Yuan's stunning performance in the Shadowmoon Mountain Range and naturally did not know Ye Yuan's true strength.
"Ye Yuan, these words are a bit too conceited, right? Even though you got first place in the first round, this second round's Jadelight Drum, even to the first place, it's absolutely not easy too." Yang Fan said.
These words were said veiledly, but actually, it was saying that Ye Yuan actually took advantage of people in the first round, and was not a true winner.
How your strength was, did you not have any score in your heart?
Blowing your own trumpet here, why didn't you take a piss and look at your reflection as well?
Ye Yuan did not refute, but said to Han Yong with a smile, "If you trust me, I'll teach you. If you don't believe, then forget it, take it as I didn't say anything."
Han Yong's expression flickered incessantly. Honestly speaking, he was a little skeptical.
But overpowering Zhao Zhao was also his long-cherished wish of many years.
Suddenly, he gritted his teeth and said, "Brother, you say, I believe you!"
Ye Yuan nodded his head and whispered a few words in Han Yong's ear.
When Han Yong heard, his face could not help revealing a dubious look as he said, "So simple? Can it work?"
Ye Yuan nodded and said with a smile, "Those who find it hard don't know, those who know won't find it hard. This round's assessment isn't as difficult as you imagine."
Han Yong's face revealed a strange look and could not quite make up his mind for some time.
At this time, the test was also progressing in an orderly manner.
But up to this point, not a single person passed yet.
Some people also did not dare to go all out when they saw those in front getting injured.
Slam!
Finally, when more than 40 people took the field, someone sounded the Jadelight Drum for the first time.
It was just that this sound was as soft as a mosquito's buzzing. Whether or not it was counted as sounding, was also hard to say.
"Ding Yuan, tier zero! Pass the test!" At this time, Deacon Hong said in a clear voice.
Clearly, Deacon Hong could decide the ranks of the people who passed the test through that small flag.
Tier zero could virtually be ignored.
But being able to do it to this step was also indeed not easy.
The people who took part in the test at the back, those who passed also gradually increased. But the vast majority were all tier zero or tier one.
All the way until the top 100, only then did a tier two disciple appear.
Chapter 1794 - Drumming Method That Made People Don't Know Whether to Laugh or Cry
"Zhao Shu, tier three! Passed the assessment!"
"Zhao Zhao, tier four! Passed the assessment!"
The moment Deacon Hong's voice fell, it immediately aroused a wave of exclamations.
"Zhao Zhao actually reached tier four. Him being called the Devil Elephant lineage's number one person indeed wasn't simply boasted out."
"In comparison, Thundercloud Sect's Han Yong is much worse."
"The genius that the Thundercloud Sect nurtured this time is too weak!"
...
The grudges between Celestial Deity level sects were not some secret here.
Everyone all came from Celestial Deity level sects. Regarding Zhao Zhao and Han Yong's matters, everyone was very clear.
Han Yong's expression was very ugly. He thought that Zhao Zhao would at most be peak tier three. He did not expect that Zhao Zhao actually reached tier four.
This way, the pressure he was experiencing was very great.
It did not matter if he lost, but people would say that the Thundercloud Sect was inferior to the Devil Elephant Sect.
In reality, the two great sects each had their own merits. It was just that the Devil Elephant Sect developed rapidly these few years, and already faintly showed trends of overshadowing the Thundercloud Sect.
Therefore, Han Yong did not want to lose even more.
Zhao Zhao landed from midair and deliberately passed by Han Yong and said with a sneer, "Han Yong, I've already broken through to tier four. I know that you're not convinced, so don't get lower than this!"
Han Yong's expression changed and opened his mouth, wanting to refute. But he truly did not have any confidence.
Putting out the big talk now, if he could not achieve it in a while, that would be even more humiliating.
At this time, Ye Yuan suddenly spoke up, "You rest assured, when Brother Han goes up in a while, he'll only be higher than you and not lower than you."
The Zhao three brothers and Han Yong were implacable enemies. He came down only because he wanted to show off a bit to Han Yong, so he did not notice that Ye Yuan was actually still here.
Hearing Ye Yuan speak, Zhao Zhao's expression could not help changing, his eyes revealing a look of fear.
"Humph! W-With just the likes of him? Don't I know how capable he is?" Zhao Zhao raised his neck and forcefully argued.
He was afraid of Ye Yuan, but it did not mean that he was scared of Han Yong.
After fighting for a little less than half of their lifetimes, could he still not know Han Yong's strength?
Ye Yuan said coolly, "What this Jadelight Drum is testing is potential and not strength. Your strength is indeed greater than his, but it doesn't mean that your potential is greater than his."
The moment Zhao Zhao heard, he said disdainfully, "Just him? If he can surpass me, I'll pluck my head off for him to kick as a ball!"
Ye Yuan smiled and said, "No need for that. If he can surpass you, yell in front of so many people that the Devil Elephant Sect is no good three times! Do you dare or not!"
When Zhao Zhao heard Ye Yuan's words, his expression could not help but become stifled.
This was betting with the sect's reputation, it was not up to him to not be cautious.
When Ye Yuan saw his appearance, he said coolly, "Looks like you don't have much confidence in yourself. Therefore, when people haven't appeared on the stage yet, don't posture here. There are plenty of people stronger than you!"
Seeing Ye Yuan stump Zhao Zhao with a few words, Han Yong could not help being greatly excited.
He naturally knew that he could not beat Zhao Zhao. But being able to make him feel deflated, he was also very happy.
Zhao Zhao smiled coldly when he heard that and said, "You're goading me? Do you think that I'd fall for it so easily?"
Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Regardless whether I'm goading or not, you're a gutless loser! You don't dare to bet, isn't it still because you don't have the confidence? You look, I dare to say that if I lose to you, I'll commit suicide in front of the Shadowmoon Sect's mountain gates to atone for my crime! But you, don't dare!"
Zhao Zhao's expression became incomparably ugly. Of course you freaking dared to say so!
How could a peerless genius who fused spatial law and Sword Dao law possibly lose to him?
This guy was even stronger than Duan Qinghong and Zhong Hanlin!
"Hahaha … You're indeed a loser, to not even dare to agree to this! If yo
u don't dare to agree, then scram to one side, don't be an eyesore here! Is tier four very impressive?" Han Yong also laughed loudly and said.
Being looked down upon by Ye Yuan, he felt like he had no temper.
But being despised by Han Yong like this, he could not quite endure it anymore.
"Han Yong, I dare to bet, then do you dare? If you lose, you'll also shout Thundercloud Sect is no good three times! Do you have the guts?" Zhao Zhao said with a cold smile.
Han Yong's expression choked up when he heard this. It was as if he had his throat clutched.
When Zhao Zhao saw the situation, he said to Ye Yuan with a cold smile, "See? It's him who doesn't have the guts, not that I don't have the guts!"
The moment Han Yong heard this, his head heated up. He said, "Compete then, who's scared of who?"
Zhao Zhao was startled inwardly, but he thought about it, it was impossible for him to lose to Han Yong. His face could not help turning dark as he said, "Okay, I want to see whether or not you can really turn into a phoenix from a hen! I'm going to make your Thundercloud Sect lose all of its face in front of everyone."
This matter was settled like this. But Han Yong's heart was racing.
He truly did not have much confidence in winning Zhao Zhao.
"Ye Yuan, you went a bit too overboard! If Han Yong loses, he won't be able to even lift his head in the Shadowmoon Sect in the future! He'll become a common target for scorn!" Yang Fan said in a solemn voice.
Clearly, he was enraged.
Yang Fan and Han Yong's relationship was very close. Seeing Ye Yuan incite the wager this time, the fury in his heart blazed.
If Han Yong lose, the Thundercloud lineage's people would thoroughly cast him aside, and view him as the sect's traitor. In the future, he'd be alone and helpless in the Shadowmoon Sect. This was not as simple as yelling three times.
The future implications were too great.
Saying something unpleasant, this wager might directly ruin Han Yong's future.
Furthermore, Yang Fan really could not see any hopes of victory for Han Yong.
The method that Ye Yuan said he would teach Han Yong, Yang Fan was very pessimistic about it too.
If casually teaching could defy the heavens, then wouldn't the Shadowmoon Sect's assessment become a joke?
