Chapter Eighty-four: A Contest of Aura

  The vermilion fish entered the elite hall and began to look around nervously.

  She came here for the first time when Liu Laolao entered the Grand View Garden.

  This is actually the legendary holy temple of Nanhai Institute!

  Through the Elite Hall challenge, become an elite disciple, this is the highest honor of Nanhai Institute disciples!

  So this is the Hall of Honor!

  No wonder, it's really a good guy!

  The Challenge Hall is larger than the Bell Tower Square.

  There are tens of thousands of seats around, hundreds of high-end private rooms, and most of them have green lights on, obviously many private rooms are occupied.

  Enough confidence, enough magnanimity.

  It's just that Zhū Yú stepped into such a grand hall, yet didn't feel any sense of glory.

  Because of the people around him making a "shh" sound, some guys even scolded and insulted him, and there were even vicious attacks.

  Especially on the side of Lian Ti Tang.

  One by one, they were like old mothers who had been wronged, pulling their necks and shouting at the crucian carp, with all sorts of obscene and filthy language that was unbearable to hear.

  The bream is very unhappy.

  So he made a gesture that no one in this world could understand, he stretched out his middle finger and fiercely pointed it at the direction of Lian Ti Hall: "Fuck your mother!"

  Others can't understand, but people can feel the attitude of the crucian carp.

  What is he doing?

  In provocation, issue the strongest challenge to all disciples of Lian Ti Tang!

  The scene became even more chaotic, with many disciples of the Refining Body Hall unable to resist rushing down from the viewing platform. If there hadn't been a powerful symbol array restriction within the great hall, some of them would have already taken out their magical tools and attacked Zhu Yu.

  The vermilion fish smiled coldly and responded with extreme contempt towards these guys.

  All those rumors and gossip around me are just a bunch of nonsense!

  Zhu Yu was really annoyed in his heart, these days his ears were filled with ridicule, scolding and sarcasm, he and Gao Rou broke off the engagement, what business is it of others.

  But there are some guys who, like they've been injected with chicken blood, are gloating and kicking someone while they're down, as if the cancellation of this marriage contract would give them a chance to get close to Gao Rou, they're all just a bunch of extreme jerks.

  Muddy Bodhisattva still has three parts of fiery temper!

  Zhu Yu wasn't really a well-behaved student after all, so he started fighting back!

  "Silence, silence!"

  The elder presiding over the assessment in the pavilion was an old man in white robes, his eyes cold and stern, his gaze piercing as he bellowed at the crowd.

  Two loud shouts, and the crowd gradually subsided.

  The old man's eyebrows were deeply furrowed, and his eyes gazed at Zhu Yu with a look of disgust.

  The assessment elder of Jingying Hall is a transcendent existence in the college, and they are all from other halls of the college.

  This white-robed elder was unfortunately from Lian Ti Hall.

  Zhu Yu's blatant provocation towards Lian Ti Tang, can he really be at ease in his heart?

  "A black robe dares to challenge the Elite Hall? Haha, that old good-for-nothing Xiu Yuan is getting more and more pathetic!"

  With a cold face, he said loudly: "Elite Hall assessment, recommend disciples to enter the arena, and pay respects to the twenty red robe winners!"

  He shouted, and all the recommended disciples rushed onto the law platform.

  On the platform, twenty self-enrolled disciples who were also known as seed disciples dispersed and began to greet the recommended disciples.

  This is the rule of Jingying Hall assessment.

  The Nanhai Temple emphasizes harmony among its disciples, and this kind of pre-bout greeting between opponents is a form of etiquette.

  It's just such etiquette that appears on a group of vigorous young men, and it has become more of a provocation to each other.

  Look at these recommended disciples rushing up with a fierce momentum, each and every one of them exuding killing intent. What does it look like they're going to pay their respects? It's clearly a fight to the death.

  The other twenty men in red robes were not weak either, each with a cold face and a fake smile.

  "Zhu Yu, heh heh! I've finally seen the real you. You thought you were some kind of big shot, huh?" A cold voice sounded in Zhu Yu's ear.

  The carp turned its head, and beside it stood a tall, over two-meter-tall red-robed monk with a sturdy build, a full face of flesh, a thick nose, and an appearance comparable to Li Kui, clearly a martial artist.

  The vermilion fish narrowed its eyes and stared at the other party, hehe smiled and said: "Who are you?"

  "Zhang Duo!" the tall man bellowed, "I hope you can pass the assessment! I've been wanting to peel your skin for a long time! I've been looking for you everywhere, and now that I've run into you, it's your bad luck!"

  Zhang Duo?

  "Is he a member of the Zhang family?"

  He sneered and said, "Good, the Zhang family has a Zhang Shang, whose nasal bridge I smashed with one punch. You're called Zhang Dang, just right, good things come in pairs, you'll be next soon. I suggest you go wash up clean and wait for Old Man Zhu to slaughter you!"

  "What did you say? I'll tear you apart right now!" Zhang Duo's anger was uncontrollable, his face turned blue with rage, and he made a gesture as if he was about to strike.

  He's actually a trump card secretly hidden in Lian Ti Hall.

  This year's strategy for Lian Ti Tang is to squeeze out Ling Fu Tang and snatch the quotas for elite disciples from them.

  On the other hand, it is necessary to make a big impact on other halls, to reveal the trump card, to show the existence of Lian Ti Tang in the whole hospital, and to show its depth.

  Lian Ti Tang's ambition was not just to snatch the quota for elite disciples, but to make Lian Ti Tang one of the top two halls in the entire institute in terms of overall strength!

  Zhang Duo is one of the aces of Lian Ti Tang this time, and was placed in the final challenge of the Elite Hall, specifically targeting the recommended disciples of each hall.

  As the trump card!

  Zhang Dang was furious beyond measure, how could he tolerate Zhu Yu's humiliation and provocation?

  "All recommended disciples return to their positions and begin the first round of assessment!" The assessing elder shouted loudly with his neck stretched out.

  Zhang Duo's eyes narrowed, and a sharp glint flashed through them: "Consider yourself lucky, kid. I hope you can pass the basic test; otherwise, it would be too disappointing!"

  The Elite Hall Basic Test is divided into three rounds.

  The first round of testing physical strength is to understand that for postnatal cultivators, the core is cultivating the body and reshaping the flesh.

  This is true for both body cultivators and energy practitioners without exception.

  Their physical prowess is their foundation, but for practitioners of internal energy, the flesh is also important. The more profound the technique, the greater the need for a strong spirit to support it.

  The physical body is a vessel for spiritual power; if the vessel is not strong enough, how can it possibly store great spiritual power?

  The physical body is even more important for low-level practitioners without spiritual consciousness.

  The second round of testing the Master's body method.

  Having a strong physical strength does not necessarily mean that one's movements are agile and nimble. While combat power is one aspect, physical agility is also an important consideration. Only with great power combined with a nimble body can one be considered a qualified postnatal cultivator.

  The third round of testing is potential.

  This test is relatively abstract, mainly testing the spiritual power of the masters. The test of divine consciousness for masters above the eighth level.

  The mighty power of the Post-Tomorrow Cultivator mainly lies in his physical body.

  However, the strength of innate practitioners mainly lies in their divine consciousness.

  The probability of a postnatal cultivator breaking through to the innate is something that can be judged by assessing their potential. Those with strong spiritual energy, whose divine sense radiates far and wide after reaching the divine sense realm, have a higher chance of breaking through to the innate, while those who do not are less likely to do so.

  The goal of Nanhua Temple's elite disciples is to cultivate innate spiritual babies, so the Elite Hall needs disciples with sufficient potential.

  Three-item test, all of which must be passed in order to advance to the next round of challenges; otherwise, eliminated!

  Don't underestimate Jingying Hall's basic test.

  Among the Hongpao disciples of the South Sea Temple, those who have reached the seventh or eighth level are as numerous as cattle hair. Many disciples failed to break through the basic test and therefore do not qualify to enter the Elite Hall.

  The test is about to begin, and the disciples recommended by each hall have returned to their positions.

  The hall also fell silent, and a tense atmosphere began to envelop the entire hall.

  Some of the recommended disciples with poor mental quality were sweating profusely at this time, their heartbeats accelerated, and their breathing became extremely rapid.

  Three test crystal walls have been erected on the dueling platform.

  The highest markings on the three crystal walls are 5,000, 10,000 and 15,000.

  The first pass of the Jingying Hall assessment requires male disciples of the Qi Refining stage to have a single arm strength of 5,000 jin. Male disciples of the Body Refining stage must reach a massive force of 10,000 jin.

  Male practitioners need to achieve a single arm strength of 3,000 jin, while female practitioners need to achieve a single arm strength of 5,000 jin.

  Such data is terrifying.

  As a Postnatal Cultivator, the Postnatal Triple Divine Realm begins, and strength starts to surge violently.

  However, the single arm strength of a Qigong practitioner in the Divine Power Realm is generally only 500, while that of a Body Refining cultivator can reach up to 1,000.

  Cultivation to the Post-Heaven Seventh Realm and above requires a benchmark index that exceeds the Divine Power Realm by a full tenfold, which is not an easy feat.

  Some disciples have reached the seventh level of acquired cultivation, but their physical strength is not good enough. They can't even pass the first test in Jingying Hall, so they will never be qualified to become elite disciples.

  Failed to become an elite disciple, it can be said that this life will also find it difficult to reach the Innate Realm.

  The world of cultivating immortals is just so cruel!

  What is elite?

  The elite must be strong enough and also have enough potential. Among the same level of cultivation, they must also be top-notch to become an elite.

  "The First Trial, Physical Strength Test Begins!"

  The white-robed elder's voice boomed as he lowered his head and glanced at the jade platform in his hand: "First, Shen Jian Tang Mi Yi!"

  A short red-robed disciple stepped forward, his face flushing with nervousness as he charged towards the first crystal wall.

  The elder's brow furrowed in a frown, and he barked: "That is for female disciples only! You are the second crystal wall!"

  "Uh... yes, yes!" Mi Yitong's face turned red as he hastily changed direction.

  The crowd around burst into laughter.

  Turned the oppressive and tense scene into a relaxed one!

  Sanjiang votes are tight, only a few dozen votes apart, smash some votes and we'll rush up. Recommendations can't be relaxed, today's recommendations seem to have decreased a lot...
