Just as Han Zhen was stuck in a dilemma, a well-built middle-aged man walked to the center of the field and suddenly shouted, "Quiet!"
That voice was filled with authority, as if it had an irresistible force that sealed everyone's mouths. The entire Heaven-Containing Prefecture instantly fell silent …
The middle-aged man glared at Han Zhen, and Han Xuan, who was standing beside him, shook his head slightly.
This middle-aged man was called Han Meng, and he was Han Xuan's third uncle. He was also the master of the Heaven-Containing Prefecture, and he had always been the one in charge of the Heaven-Containing Prefecture's recruitment.
Han Xuan saw that the situation wasn't good, and he was afraid that things would get out of hand, so he could only ask his third uncle to come out …
Han Meng then said, "Our Heaven-Containing Prefecture's recruitment test has always been based on strength. I'm sure everyone knows that quite a few Han Family disciples have been eliminated in the past, and this cannot be faked. All of you who have proven your godhood are determined to prove your godhood, and your perseverance is commendable. To choose our Heaven-Containing Prefecture is our honor. If you can prove your godhood, you will be considered a part of our family. In the future, entering the floating island and being accepted as a disciple by the Sage Emperor is not impossible."
When these words were spoken, coupled with the aura hidden in his voice, it was extremely tempting.
Entering the floating island was an unattainable dream for millions of true gods, and it exuded boundless attraction. Even the Extreme Evil Old Man, who was content with his own territory, had a look of endless yearning when it came to the floating island.
Han Meng's words weren't false, either. The Han Family was also constantly nurturing its own disciples and geniuses.
Although the distribution of power in the divine realm was very stable, and the Han Family's position was unshakeable, it didn't mean that there was no competition …
The floating island rankings in the Sea of Time would change every once in a while, and according to the changes in the rankings, the level of these powerful families would be determined. If a powerful family didn't have fresh blood for a long time, the floating island's status would continue to decline. In addition, their right to speak in the Sage Hall would be severely weakened. These were all mutually reinforcing.
The Han Family also needed to select talented elites from the thirty-six regions to nurture, and select the geniuses to enter the floating island. The Sage Emperor would then accept the outstanding ones as his disciples.
Thus, although Mu Jiu, Mu Tian, and Mu Han, whom Luo Zheng had met in the Great Yan Universe, were only lower true gods, they were much stronger than ordinary true gods.
Just as Han Meng finished speaking, a melodious bell sound came from the depths of the Heaven-Containing Prefecture!
"Dong —"
The sound was produced by the vibration of an invisible force. Generally speaking, this force was invisible.
But when the bell rang, everyone saw yellow ripples in the sky. These yellow ripples kept spreading in the air, leaving behind the melodious bell sound in everyone's ears.
"Dong —"
The second and third bell chimes rang out as well …
Han Meng smiled faintly and said, "The bell has rung. As usual, everyone must toss the White Jade Token in their hands into the air and wait for a moment. After our Heaven Containing Palace has finished organizing, the examination will begin!"
The number of people entering the Heaven-containing Palace was recorded by these white jade tokens. These white jade tokens all had Han Jia's special symbol, so they could not be faked.
As his voice fell, Han Xuan, who was beside Han Meng, suddenly waved his arm. The white jade token shot out from his hand and flew into the sky above the Heaven-containing Palace. Han Xuan seemed to have poured some kind of power into this white jade token.
This white jade token was covered in a layer of faint green light. It shot into the air, but it seemed to have encountered an invisible net. That net formed a strong resistance, and the momentum of the white jade token rapidly decreased. In the end, it was embedded in the air, unable to go up or down.
"This year, Han Xuan is the first to go. The height is six hundred and seventy feet," someone from the Heaven-containing Palace announced.
Luo Zheng leaned against the wall and stared at the little white dot in the air. Although he hadn't been in Six Ren Divine City for long, he had at least done some research and knew the rules of the Heaven-containing Palace's examination.
Han Jia's examination wasn't equal. After all, there were a hundred thousand people taking the examination together. There had to be an order, and the first martial artist naturally had the advantage. So every year, before the examination began, they would toss out white jade tokens to determine the order of each martial artist who proved divinity.
In the sky above the Heaven-containing Palace, there was an extremely strong binding force. The higher one went, the stronger the binding force.
Last year, the highest toss height in the Heaven-containing Palace's examination was only five hundred and fifty feet. This year, Han Xuan had surpassed last year's best result.
But because this year's Heaven-containing Palace's examination was much better than last year's, whether it was the number of people or the quality, Han Xuan's result was not unexpected.
After Han Xuan made the first move, there were martial artists who started to throw White Jade Tokens into the air. These White Jade Tokens recorded their names and origins. When all of the White Jade Tokens were bound by the power in the air, the order and the details of the martial artists who proved their divinity would be recorded in the records.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh …
In the process of tossing the white jade tokens, these martial artists who proved divinity used various methods to imbue the tokens with the power they comprehended. This allowed the white jade tokens to fly higher and fight for a higher ranking for themselves.
Some of the White Jade Tokens had powerful flame energy attached to them. As they flew, they exploded with a series of explosions, trying to push the White Jade Tokens even higher. Some of the other White Jade Tokens had different kinds of energy attached to them. A considerable portion of the energy came from various Divine Daos, and there were also some that relied purely on brute force.
These martial artists who could be called martial artists who proved divinity had more or less stepped into the Divine Daos. It was just that they didn't have a deep understanding of the Divine Daos, so they couldn't condense the Godhood …
Most of the white jade tokens could only reach a height of three hundred to four hundred feet. Only a small number could go beyond four hundred feet or close to five hundred feet. This was already an excellent result, standing out from at least ninety percent of the martial artists who proved divinity. A very small number of martial artists who proved divinity could go beyond five hundred feet. These people were the best of the best!
For example, Hu Lan Zhuo. He threw his white jade token to a height of five hundred and forty feet. Looking at his expression, he was quite satisfied.
Over a hundred thousand martial artists who proved divinity threw their tokens at the same time. Countless thin lines of different colors appeared in the sky above the Heaven-containing Mansion. It was a spectacular sight!
Hiss …
A sharp hiss cut through the sky, attracting everyone's attention. The white jade token was wrapped in a black flame. Like a black meteor, it rushed into the sky at an extremely fast speed!
This white jade token was thrown by Han Zhen!
Han Zhen's strength could only be ranked fifth on the list, behind Luo Zheng. He didn't expect that relying on the black flame, the white jade token would surpass Han Xuan's height of six hundred and seventy feet in an instant!
The higher the white jade token climbed, the greater the resistance, and the slower the speed.
Moreover, the black flame on the white jade token was still slowly burning. It slowly climbed up with difficulty and finally stopped at a height of seven hundred and ninety feet!
Seeing this scene, Han Zhen's face was full of surprise. He didn't expect that he could surpass Han Xuan by so much.
"Han Zhen actually threw it to seven hundred and ninety feet …."
"Over the years, the best result was only eight hundred and twenty feet, right?"
"Looks like Han Zhen's strength ranking is really low. He shouldn't be ranked fifth!"
Hearing these discussions, Han Zhen was very pleased. After looking around, his gaze fell on Luo Zheng. He said loudly, "My Han family disciples have always relied on their own strength to enter the Heaven-containing Mansion! It's very different from what some people think! "
When Han Meng heard this, he nodded slightly. The Proving Divinity cultivators of the Han family branch were indeed outstanding. Each of them could enter the Heaven-containing Palace legitimately. This was truly a fair competition. They were destined to speak with their strength.
Luo Zheng leaned against the wall, leaning his head slightly. He still had that careless smile on his face as he stared indifferently at Han Zhen.
He came to the Heaven-containing Mansion with no intention of competing with anyone. He just wanted to quietly pass the Heaven-containing Mansion's examination and slowly enter the Han family's floating island. But this Han Zhen inexplicably wanted to target him ….
"Throw the White Jade Token in your hand up! If you don't dare, give up now and withdraw. You can still save some face, "Han Zhen provoked.
Almost all of the hundred thousand martial artists had already thrown their white jade tokens up. They hung densely in the air like a flock of motionless white birds. It was a spectacular sight.
Only a few of the martial artists didn't make a move. Luo Zheng was one of them.
