Without Gong Sun Ming's special treatment, Zhao Yuande was relaxed and content. Soon, an incense stick's worth of time passed. Only three unlucky fellows had become complacent when they were about to succeed. As a result, they were defeated by Gong Sun Ming's final wave of pressure and lost their qualifications.
"The first round of assessment has ended. A total of 135 people have passed!" The old man stood up and looked at the 135 people with a smile. He nodded in satisfaction. After a short pause, he continued, "The second round of assessment will begin. In this round, we will assess the word 'strength'. Strength is naturally the strength of one's physical body. Only by building a good foundation of the physical body can a cultivator go further. Only then can they have a chance to ascend the Immortal Path and become an immortal. Therefore, strength is essential!"
Just as the old man finished speaking, he waved his sleeve. A pitch-black stone pillar that was dozens of feet tall and several feet wide appeared in front of everyone.
"This is the Strength Measuring Stone Pillar. You just need to punch it and it will show you how strong you are." The old man pointed at the pitch-black stone pillar and introduced, "An ordinary Domain Realm expert should have the strength of one dragon. As long as your strength exceeds one dragon's strength, you will pass."
One dragon's strength. Although it sounded scary, it wasn't much. Everyone present was very confident.
At this moment, only Zhao Yuande was a little depressed. He didn't know if he should use his full strength or just a portion of his strength.
If he used his full strength, he was afraid that he would stand out too much and become the focus of everyone.
His current position was that of an alchemist's disciple. He was secretly growing his strength. On the surface, he was developing in the direction of an alchemist.
But now, he was starting from scratch. His strength had grown too quickly. Had he tested it before?
He didn't know how much strength he had now. If he wanted to hide it, he didn't know how much strength he should use. It was a headache.
This round was the simplest round. They only needed to punch once. Almost everyone was full of confidence.
"Bang!"
The Strength Measuring Stone Pillar suddenly exploded with a dazzling yellow light.
"This is yellow. This person actually has the strength of 11 dragons. How scary!"
"He just entered the Domain Realm and already has such strength. This strength is enough to shatter a mountain with a single punch!"
"I know this person. His name is Shen Zong. He is a very strong genius. In just a month, he went from the peak of Yin Yang Integration Realm to the third stage of the Domain Realm. His speed is heaven-defying!"
"There must be a great force behind this person. I once saw him enter a shop called the Myriad Drug Pavilion …"
"…"
There were too many people in the Chores District. With so many people, there were too many eyes. If one didn't carefully and deliberately hide, perhaps nothing could escape their eyes.
It was obvious that Shen Zong had the backing of the Myriad Drug Pavilion. This was also a well-known fact.
"Boom!"
Just as everyone was pointing at Shen Zong, their faces filled with envy, another muffled sound rang out.
This time, the yellow light from the Strength Measuring Rock Pillar was even more dazzling, Zhao Yuande could see that the yellow light had reached the second scale.
The Strength Measuring Stone Pillar was divided into seven colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet, and every color had ten scales.
Ten red scales represented one dragon's strength, ten orange scales represented ten dragons' strength, and ten yellow scales represented twenty dragons' strength …
"The power of twelve dragons! This person is called Jin Hai, and he's Elder Jin's grandson. His cultivation has already reached the fifth level of the Domain Realm, the Divine Phase Realm! "
"Elder Jin's grandson, no wonder!"
"Looking at his age, he doesn't seem old, at most fifteen years old!"
"That's right, fifteen years old. His talent is outstanding. Another genius of the Jin Clan is rising!"
"…"
The golden light continued to rise, causing countless chores disciples to exclaim in surprise.
"Tantai Guang actually has fifteen dragons' strength, so scary …"
"Lin Hao has thirteen dragons' strength …"
"Wu Cheng has sixteen dragons' strength …"
"…"
The exclamations continued, but all the disciples' strength was at most sixteen dragons' strength.
"Next!"
Just at this time, it was Zhao Yuande's turn to go up. He thought for a moment, then walked in large strides to the pitch black pillar.
"Hai!"
Zhao Yuande got into a good stance, exhaled, and punched heavily on the Strength Measuring Rock Pillar.
Because he had the experience of killing a fatty with a punch, everyone's gaze landed on the Strength Measuring Rock Pillar.
Everyone saw red light, orange light, yellow light, and so on …
"What! This is … "
"Impossible …"
"This …"
"He …"
Countless exclamations sounded at the same time. Everyone only saw a flash of green light, which finally stopped at the ninth scale!
"Wow!"
Everyone was in an uproar at this time.
"Thirty-nine dragons' strength! This person is heaven-defying! "
"He's definitely heaven-defying. As expected of the expert who killed that fatty with a punch. He's only one dragon's strength away from the peak of the Domain Realm!"
"Doesn't this mean that this person can already fight a peak Domain Realm expert with his physical body?"
"Genius! He's definitely a genius! "
"What a rare talent!"
"…"
"Lord Deacon, what do you think of this child? Is he qualified to be a disciple of a deacon or an elder? "The elder presiding over the test respectfully asked Gong Sun Ming, who was standing proudly beside him.
This presiding elder, as well as the other elders present, were all people who had no hope of breaking through to the Immortal Realm and were assigned to the chores area to manage various affairs. If the chores area could produce some geniuses, they would also feel proud.
However, although these people were said to be in charge of the chores area, they basically wouldn't appear in the chores area. Unless something big happened, they wouldn't appear.
"En! Not bad. His talent is passable, but he's a little old! " Gong Sun Ming said calmly. "However, just the strength of his physical body isn't enough to tempt the elders and deacons. We still have to see the specific test of his Qi and Spirit!"
"Lord Deacon is right!" The elder hurriedly lowered his head.
The elder was also a shrewd person. He had cultivated for several thousand years. Although his cultivation couldn't advance, he was very knowledgeable about the ways of the world.
He could tell at a glance that Gong Sun Ming's attitude toward Zhao Yuande was slightly different. It seemed to be somewhat disgusted.
The strength of 39 Dragons instantly made Zhao Yuande the center of everyone's attention. All of the examinees looked at him respectfully, their gazes filled with envy, shock, horror, and a strong desire to do battle …
Zhao Yuande was feeling depressed. He had only used a fifth of his strength. He hadn't expected it to be so eye-catching!
Peng!
Just as everyone was looking at Zhao Yuande with complicated expressions, another green light suddenly shot into the sky!
"Thirty-seven dragons' strength! This person is … Xu Xiong! "
"He actually has such great strength …"
"This Xu Xiong is younger than Zhao Yuande by a few years … His potential is limitless!"
"I heard that this person has long been valued by a deacon. As long as he is promoted to an outer disciple, he will be directly accepted as a disciple!"
"Which deacon is it?"
"Deacon Wei, Wei Changkong! The strongest among the deacons … "
"I'm so envious …"
"…"
