Han Meng also understood that the power that Luo Zheng had just erupted with was too terrifying. It had already surpassed the limits of a Proof of Divinity martial artist. Just throwing it out was enough to shatter the White Jade Token. This was enough to prove his ability …
Proof Gods of this level didn't need to fight for an order. He could even make an exception and directly recruit Luo Zheng into the Heaven-Containing Palace.
However, Han Meng needed an excuse to observe Luo Zheng's strength!
The Heaven-Containing Palace was facing a lot of pressure. In the past thousand years, the Han Clan's Saint Emperor had only accepted one disciple. Moreover, that disciple didn't come from the Heaven-Containing Palace, but from the Han Clan's floating island.
Although the Heaven-Containing Palace had nurtured many elites in the past thousand years, after these geniuses became True Gods, their performance was very mediocre. Even those who were recommended by the Heaven-Containing Palace to the floating island didn't have any outstanding areas.
The Han Clan's main branch on the floating island had already announced that if the Heaven-Containing Palace didn't produce a single disciple within the next thousand years, they would give the Heaven-Containing Palace's recommendation rights to the thirty-six regions. At that time, all the 'Proof Palace' in the thirty-six regions would be able to recommend disciples to the floating island!
To become a disciple, one had to be chosen by the Han Clan's Saint Emperor. How difficult was that?
Han Meng wished he could become the Saint Emperor's disciple, but unfortunately, he didn't have the qualifications …
The reason the Han Clan's branch was able to grow to its current state in Liuren Divine City was because of the Han Clan. Because the Han Clan had given the Heaven-Containing Palace the recommendation rights, the Proof Gods of the thirty-six regions had no choice but to gather in Liuren Divine City to participate in the Heaven-Containing Palace's examination.
Although Liuren Divine City was the Han Clan's ancestral land, the main branch had already moved to the floating island. The members of the Han Clan's branch were only distant relatives of the Han Clan. Some of them weren't even related to the Han Clan by blood. Being able to give the Han Clan these benefits was already very considerate.
If the main branch on the floating island gave the recommendation rights to the other Proof Palaces, then the status of the Han Clan's branch would be greatly weakened!
However, finding a disciple who could meet the requirements of a Saint was too difficult. Ever since Han Meng took up the position, he hadn't seen such a genius …
Thinking about the heavy burden of the Han Clan's branch on his shoulders, Han Meng's heart felt incomparably heavy.
This Luo Zheng had just displayed his strength, proving that he was a Divine Martial Expert and was able to shake space. The flames of hope in Han Meng's heart had already been ignited!
If Luo Zheng really had the slightest chance of catching the eye of the Han family's Saint Emperor, then his position in the Heaven-Containing Mansion would be preserved. That was why Han Meng had mercilessly reprimanded Han Zhen for targeting Luo Tianxing.
........ and Luo Zheng's...................
.......... You......................................................................................................................
. When Han Meng gave the halberds to Luo Zheng, the flames of jealousy in Han Zhen's eyes nearly spat out.
This time, the five sons of the Han Clan's branch were participating in the exam. Originally, they wanted to take the top five places. However, Han Meng had promised to give the halberds to the one who took the top spot.
Han Zhen's weapon of choice was the short halberds. Although the halberds weren't graded, they were still grandmist treasures. He didn't expect his Third Uncle to give them to Luo Zheng. It was too unfair.
The five sons of the Han Family all had different thoughts. However, when Han Xuan saw Han Zhen's indignant expression, he gently patted him on the shoulder and comforted him, "Third Uncle is also thinking for the sake of our Han Family branch. This Luo Tianxing really does have such frightening strength and talent. It's best if we don't offend him. Who knows, Third Uncle might send you to apologize …"
"Why should I apologize?!" Han Zhen growled.
"Why should I?" Han Xuan smiled faintly. "Don't you understand? Being born in the Han Clan is both a blessing and a misfortune. Everything you have is given by the Han Clan. They have the right to take it away, unless … "
"Unless what?" Han Zhen's expression became more and more unfriendly. He didn't like Han Xuan's argument, but he had to admit that Han Xuan's words made sense.
Han Xuan continued to smile. "Unless you can show more strength and talent than Luo Tianxing. If you can catch the eye of the main family, isn't it … simple?"
"Simple my ass!" Han Zhen cursed. He could only place his hopes on Luo Zheng. He hoped that this kid was a swindler and that he had deliberately broken the White Jade Token. However, Han Zhen knew that this was only his own wishful thinking.
Han Zhen wasn't the only one who was jealous of Luo Zheng. When the other Proof of Divinity cultivators saw that Luo Zheng had broken his own White Jade Token, not only was he not kicked out, but he was also given a grandmist treasure by the Mansion Master himself.
Luo Zheng didn't decline. Since he had already decided to join the Han Clan, he wouldn't appear too distant. He gladly accepted the short halberds and asked, "How do you know I'm a sword cultivator?"
He hadn't displayed his sword dao in front of Han Meng. He also put the Great Thousand Heavy Sword back into its scabbard and threw it into his spatial ring.
Han Meng smiled faintly. "I see that the web between your thumb and index finger is a little flat. There's also some wear and tear on your index finger. This is the result of years of sword cultivation." As the Mansion Master of the Heaven Containing Mansion, he was a peak middle True Divinity cultivator. He definitely had this level of observation.
Luo Zheng nodded slightly. When he held the pair of short halberds in his hand, he felt as cold as iron. The short halberds were twice as heavy as the White Jade Token, but because they were heavy, they were easier to throw. There wasn't much of a difference between the two halberds.
Then, Han Meng waved his hand and smiled. "You may begin."
Luo Zheng grabbed one of the short halberds and took several steps back. He raised his head high once more. Within his inner world, the nine stars constantly revolved. The source of strength that escaped from the surface of the stars began to flow through his dantian and into Luo Zheng's right hand. There was still only 35% of the source of strength.
Luo Zheng took a deep breath and threw the short halberd in his hands.
"Wu –"
There wasn't any energy attached to the short halberd. It only relied on the purest of strength.
But this short halberd shot upwards at an unprecedented speed. It tore through the air, creating an ear-piercing howl. Because its speed was too fast, the surrounding air constantly condensed, forming a pale white trajectory …
In the blink of an eye, the short halberd had reached a height of 500 feet!
"It's so fast!"
"I wonder if it will break the record!"
"The Mansion Master seems to think highly of this boy. That's why he gave him this short halberd …"
The Proof of Divinity martial artists present widened their eyes as they watched the black short halberd rise in a straight line.
After the black short halberd reached a height of 500 feet, it encountered the invisible net like the other hundred thousand White Jade Tokens. Its speed began to decrease rapidly.
But the short halberd's initial speed was too fast. Even with the decrease in speed, it was still shockingly fast.
"I wonder if it can break Han Zhen's …" A Proof of Divinity martial artist wanted to ask if it could break Han Zhen's record. But before he could finish speaking, the short halberd had already broken through the barrier of 800 feet. It went straight for 900 feet …
"The highest record in the history of the Heaven Containing Palace is only 820 feet. It's going to break through 900 feet!"
"It's already broken through 900 feet. I think it's going to break through 1000 feet."
A Han Family disciple heard this and laughed. "Break through 1000 feet? That's too ignorant! The restrictive force above the Heaven Containing Palace is written according to the rules of the Thousand Commandments Slate. The highest is only 900 feet! No matter how powerful this Luo Tianxing is, can he break the rules of the Thousand Commandments Slate? Even an upper True Divinity would find it hard to break free from this restrictive force! "
What this Han Family disciple said was the truth. The Han Family branch controlled the Thousand Commandments Slate. The rules on it were written by them. Naturally, it was biased towards the Heaven Containing Palace. As for the other 'Proof of Divinity Palaces' in Six Ren Divine City, they didn't receive such treatment.
But after the short halberd broke through 900 feet, it continued to climb upwards without any suspense. It rushed all the way to 900 feet!
"Peng!"
