The Imperial Consort laughed bitterly and shook her head. There was a sense of exasperation on her face.
She could sense that Gu Ruoyun was not as simple as she appeared but she could not say it out loud. Otherwise, her willful niece would become even more furious!
"Eunuch Li," Su Lin turned towards the eunuch who was holding the brush and ordered, "Regardless of whether this woman passes or not, report her name! If she wishes to die, I'll send her on her way! "
In the beginning, Su Lin had wanted to embarrass Gu Ruoyun on the spot! However, she has now changed her mind. She must ensure that Gu Ruoyun succeeds in her registration no matter what. Only then would she have enough reason to kill her!
Even if Father were here, he would not be able to stop her!
Gu Ruoyun did not seem to hear Su Lin's voice and continued to walk towards Eunuch Li. Her footsteps were light and her green robes fluttered gently in the breeze.
Behind her, Zuo Shangchen stared at her figure as the corners of his lips gently curled. His peach blossom eyes swept across Su Lin's figure and a gloomy look appeared in his eyes.
"It seems that Su Lin has lived for far too long to have the audacity to provoke Xiao Yun'er."
Zuo Shangchen sighed gently but the smile on his peerlessly beautiful peach blossom face did not change. He was as beautiful as a demon and could turn all living things upside down.
"I remember that Xiao Yun'er has made quite a number of enemies along the way. Unfortunately, those enemies had all died by her hands. If Su Lin had learned her lesson and exercised some restraint, perhaps she would have been able to keep her life. Unfortunately..."
Even though Zuo Shangchen was saying that it was a pity, his face could not conceal the gloating look on his face.
It was obvious that he had long disliked Su Lin but he had refrained from attacking her because she was the daughter of his Master's old friend. However, if Gu Ruoyun had been the one who had attacked her, then he would have nothing to do with it! His Master would not be able to blame him either!
...
In the rear courtyard, everyone's eyes were focused on Gu Ruoyun as if they wanted to know if she was as good-for-nothing as Su Lin had described.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Gu Ruoyun walked towards Eunuch Li and said, "I'm here to register my name. May I ask how I should proceed?"
Eunuch Li was startled and subconsciously glanced at the Imperial Consort. When he saw the Imperial Consort nod at him, he withdrew his gaze and said in a treacherous voice, "This is a spirit stone that is specially used by the Imperial Palace to test one's strength. You can pour your strength into the palm of your hand and into the spirit stone. We can determine your strength through the cracks that appear on the spirit stone."
After all, on the mainland, there were some Divine Weapons that could fake a cultivator's rank!
Even if you haven't reached the Transcendent Realm, you'll still be able to make the aura around you reach the Transcendent Realm.
Hence, the Heavenly Moon Empire had used spirit stones as a testing stone!
As everyone knew, one's rank could be forged, and a martial artist's aura could also be changed. The only thing that could not be changed was one's strength!
Gu Ruoyun was mildly shaken. She then turned her gaze towards the spirit stone in front of her. However, when she saw the spirit stone, she was stunned.
"These spirit stones …"
Wasn't this the stone tablet she had seen outside the Fringe's Holy City?
Back then, in order to obtain the Hell's Lotus and save Qianbei Ye, she had journeyed into the Fringe's. However, if she wanted to enter the Fringe's Holy City, she would need to pass the Ye family's test. That test was to use all her strength to smash a stone tablet which was made from diamond.
Only by leaving a mark on the stone tablet could she enter the Holy City.
Who knew that in a moment of carelessness, she would shatter the entire stone tablet …
Gu Ruoyun never thought that she would see the stone tablet here again. A strange light flashed in her eyes as she said, "I only need to smash this spirit stone?"
"That's right." Eunuch Li nodded. "You only need to use all your strength to smash it. As for whether or not you can pass the registration test, that would depend on the extent of the damage done to this spirit stone!"
Hearing this, Gu Ruoyun looked at the cracked spirit stone and took a deep breath.
She has not forgotten the consequences of using all her strength.
Hence, she did not intend to use all her strength this time!
