A Good Romance

The test was very simple. One didn't have to battle this puppet, but only had to place one's palm on a stone tablet. If a light flashed, one would be qualified to enter the Tool Pavilion.
It sounded so simple, but there were pitifully few people who could make the stone tablet light up. Aside from the powerful figures of the older generation, there were only Yao Hui Yue, Xu Xiu Ran, Dong Ling 'er, and a few others in the younger generation.
"Just place your hand on the stone tablet?" a newcomer asked curiously.
"Of course not. You have to meditate on all your martial arts and cultivation techniques in your mind, and the stone tablet will magnify the power of these secret techniques to the extreme, thereby evaluating your ultimate battle prowess," an old antique said.
"This is the Stone of Martial Art, a legendary treasure.
"Even if you're only in the Flower Blossom Tier, you could possibly surpass the Shattering Void Tier, because this evaluates the battle prowess of the pinnacle tier, or in other words, puts everyone's tier on the same level, and then compares their battle prowess.
"Such a ranking should be said to be a ranking of potential. It's possible that you'll be far from reaching such a level in the future, or it's possible that you'll have another fortuitous encounter, and might surpass in the future.
That old antique said, "Not really. There are a hundred names on the stone tablet, and if your pinnacle tier battle prowess can surpass any one of them, you can be ranked among them. The stronger your future battle prowess is, the higher your ranking will be.
"However, although this mystery realm has opened for the first time in hundreds of thousands of years, this Martial Art Stone is very likely to record all the prodigies of the last million years, or even millions of years.
"To be able to leave one's name on it, even if it's only the last place, is a super genius that's hard to come by in tens of thousands of years!"
Hearing the old antique's words, everyone was a bit excited. If they could leave their name on the stone tablet, wouldn't that shock the ancients and surpass the contemporaries? However, the difficulty was too high. A few people had already entered the Tool Pavilion, but none of them left their name on the stone tablet.
Ling Han walked over. The person who ranked first on the stone tablet was actually called "first"; where did he get the courage from? Did he think no one had ever done it before, and no one would be able to do it in the future?
The second place was much more modest. His name was Primeval Beginning.
The third was Four Directions, the fourth was Shadow, the fifth was Moon, the sixth was Ancient, the seventh was Bi, the eighth was Ming Dao, the ninth was Donkey Riding Old Man, and the tenth was Nine Paths.
As Ling Han went down, every name was extremely unfamiliar, but when he came to the 99th name, a familiar name finally jumped into his eyes — Lunar King!
His heart trembled. Had this just been left behind by the Lunar King, or had it been a few hundred thousand years ago?
If it was the latter, would the Purple Moon Empire be related to this ancient dynasty?
Ling Han was lost in thought for a moment, and only came back to his senses after Zhu Xuan Er called him a few times.
"Let's give it a try too."
They parted the crowd and tried to push their way forward. Some people were easy to talk to. They had already tried and failed, so it didn't matter if they gave it to others. However, some people had bad tempers and were even more jealous. If they could not enter, they did not want others to enter.
Facing such people, there was naturally no need to be polite. Ling Han directly attacked. Xiu, xiu, xiu, the dog blocking the way was swung out like a scarecrow.
Weng, the stone tablet ahead glowed, which meant that someone had passed the test and could enter the Tool Pavilion.
"That's Wenren Qian Qian!"
"As expected of a daughter blessed by the heavens. They all say that her strength is second only to Dong Ling 'er, and it is indeed true!"
"Che, do you know what light appeared when Dong Ling 'er passed?"
"I don't know."
"Let me tell you, the Martial Art Stone can only emit light of three colors: red, green, and purple. Among them, purple light represents the weakest battle prowess, while red light represents the strongest!"
"Just now, Wenren Qian Qian triggered purple light."
"But Dong Ling 'er triggered red light …"
With that said, everyone nodded. They were both daughters blessed by the heavens, but Wenren Qian Qian was still a large distance away from Dong Ling 'er.
"Brother Ling …" When it came to Ling Han, Wenren Qian Qian couldn't help but pause, and didn't immediately enter the Tool Pavilion. Anyways, it wouldn't make much of a difference. She wanted to personally witness Ling Han's extreme battle prowess.
Although this did not mean that Ling Han could really reach such heights in the future, it could still be used as a reference.
Ling Han nodded, which was considered a greeting.
"Huh, Jia Ming is here!" Everyone dispersed. This was a fiend who killed without fear, but he was the most valued successor of the Earth Dragon Sect's next generation; who would dare to harm him?
Jia Ming walked over with large strides, and a terrifying aura rose from his whole body, transforming into large snakes.
Ling Han could not help but frown. Jia Ming's cultivation had made an astonishing leap, and he had actually reached the Deity Transformation Realm. He had once said that there was a fateful encounter for him in the ocean, and it was true that he had come. In just a few short days, he had stepped into the Deity Transformation Realm.
In the younger generation, only Xu Xiu Ran had managed to do so.
However, weren't Earth Dragons earthworms? Why did the majority of the people of the Earth Dragon Sect manifest the silhouette of large snakes? Although they were all long and wriggling things, there was still a huge difference between snakes and earthworms, right?
Jia Ming walked like a dragon or a tiger, and it was as if there was an ancient wild beast hidden within his body, incomparably terrifying.
Amidst the rumbling of the earth, he walked in front of the Martial Art Stone, first gave Ling Han a murderous look, then reached out his hand and pressed it against the Martial Art Stone.
Weng, the Martial Art Stone immediately shone.
Purple light.
But Jia Ming did not let go of his hand, and instead continued to press it. The light emitted by the Martial Art Stone changed color, becoming green.
This meant that Jia Ming's extreme battle prowess had increased, which was very normal. To press one's hand on it, one needed to derive one's own secret technique in the sea of consciousness, and after the Martial Art Stone accepted it, it would continue to derive, determine the extreme battle prowess, and then display it.
Thus, it was impossible to surpass the highest battle prowess, but one could conceal one's true strength.
"Heh heh, my battle prowess will break both the past and the present!" Jia Ming shouted loudly. His entire body surged with blood Qi, forming a frightening pressure. Hong, the people nearby all collapsed onto the ground. They were actually unable to withstand his attack.
Ling Han's expression was solemn. His strength and Jia Ming's were originally about the same, and now that the other had shockingly stepped into the Deity Transformation Tier, Ling Han would definitely be inferior in terms of physical arts alone.
If the other's battle prowess soared straight to the Heaven Tier, then Ling Han would really be in trouble.
"It's turned red!"
"Heavens!"
Everyone held their heads and cried out in surprise. As expected, he was a heaven-bestowed genius, making the Martial Art Stone manifest red, on par with Dong Ling 'er and Xu Xiu Ran.
"Ah!" Jia Ming roared again, the veins on his forehead bulging, and the silhouette of a large snake appeared behind him, hissing.
Weng, the Martial Art Stone manifested black light!
Those one hundred names from before all disappeared, and two words appeared on the stone tablet: "Leave Name."
Jia Ming's strength had reached the level where he could stand shoulder to shoulder with the ancient geniuses, and he could at least be ranked in the top hundred!
