Chapter Four - The Sect Examination II

As the young man take his entrance, the people present were looking at him with silence.

On their eyes contained fear and reverence. Moreover, every step the young man took was as elegant as a feather, causing the crowd to look at him as like a deity.

Judging from his appearance, that young man ought to be young, probably not older than seventeen. He was wearing white robes that have embroidered with black curling designs and glittering stars. His eyes were crystal clear without falseness and were azure blue. As he made his way towards the jade platform, his hair that fell towards the waist fluttered gently into the air.

"Yang Chen...That's the greatest and monstrous genius, Yang Chen! That Yang Chen who reached the realm of Nascent Soul at the age of sixteen!"

The people present were shocked. However, they soon regained their composure. But when they thought Yang Chen had appeared in the Sect Examination, which most likely means he was accepting disciples this time!

The young men and young women were enthusiastic. If Yang Chen, the thirteenth Division Lord, would accept them as the disciples, that would bring them immense joy. They have long heard the Thirteenth Division Lord has yet to receive disciples under his tutelage, which means they could be the first batch to be the disciple!

"Finally, you're here, Young Master. I thought that you would fail to honor your promise. It looks like I'm gravely mistaken and would like to seek forgiveness from the Young Master." Old Wang suddenly appeared out of nowhere. He had his head lowered as he walks beside Yang Chen.

"Forget the formalities." Yang Chen was indifferent as he put his hands behind his back and walks towards the Jade Platform.

Soon, they appeared in the Jade Platform. Yang Chen sat in the chair prepared for the supervisors. As he was one of the supervisors, he, Yang Chen, was qualified to sit in the grandees' chair in the center.

The elders, Elder Lin, Highwater Vice Master, Ling Fanyi, and Lin Xue, greeted Yang Chen.

The eager one to greet him was Lin Xue. However, Yang Chen was bewildered why this girl was here. But then, upon thinking his father probably spoke the matter of him not receiving disciples to Lin Xue's Father, and Lin Xue's Father told Lin Xue, then there was no reason for her not to know that he will appear here.

Yang Chen acted the same how the previous Yang Chen to avoid suspicion, and his gaze focused on the front. High Water Vice Master then started the Examination.

The first test was cultivation. Therefore, inspiring young men and young women one by one walk towards the center of Jade Platform.

As these young men and young women walk towards the center of the stage, two disciples walk towards the stage. They were lifting a measuring strength with them.

After the two disciples laid the measuring strength, they tapped their bag of holding as a sheet of paper and Quill pen appeared.

Following which, the first test had started.

"2000 pounds, fail. Next."

"5000 pounds, passed. Next."

"3500 pounds, passed. Next"

Soon, the disciples-in-charge listed those who passed the test and marked those who fail.

The strength test has been going on for two hours. Apart from the eight thousand that had tested, only two thousand remained.

And within those eight thousand people, most of their force behind their punch was two thousand and three thousand, which is equivalent to the 7th stage of Qi refinement. Unfortunately, this kind of strength is a fail in the face of the Thirteen Variation Sect.

Although the majority only amount to that strength, some young men and young women had the force of ten thousand pounds, which is equivalent to a peak Qi Refinement.

Overall, out of the eight thousand tested, the promising young men and young women who had the strength equivalent to Foundation Establishment are far fewer.

"2500 pounds, fail. Next."

As the disciple-in-charge speaks those words, a graceful figure emerges out of the crowd and walks towards the Jade Platform.

Cries of shock emitted when she appeared. That graceful figure was a beautiful woman dressed in pink. She looks around sixteen years old, but her facial figure can stand out from the rest. She has attractive brown eyes with beautiful eyelashes and smooth red lips. Her delicate face looks enchanting as she made her way towards the stage.

"It's her?" Ling Fanyi's eyes focused on that woman. Whomever or whenever he gazed at her, he couldn't take his eyes off no matter what.

On the other hand, Yang Chen's eyes brightened. However, to maintain his image, he acted indifferent the whole time. But in his heart, he was exclaiming and praising, 'What a beautiful woman. Are women in this world are innately beauties? This body's childhood playmate, Lin Xue, is also a beauty.'

Lin Xue looked at Yang Chen, but when she saw there were no changes in his face, she breathes in relief.

When the young woman arrived in the measuring strength, the disciples-in-charge was charmed. As they regained their composure, their face was burning with shame.

"Go ahead," One of the disciples-in-charge said, his voice somehow shaky.

The young woman nodded her head. She looked at the Measuring Strength and punched with all of her strength.
