RUMBLE!
A magnificent, majestic sound echoed throughout Washing God Star.
All the prodigies participating in the assessnt looked up, expressions of disbelief in their eyes.
Just then, the trial stage they were on abruptly vanished without a trace.
Then, they felt the world around them begin to shift and spin.
By the ti they ca to their senses, they had already been teleported back to the plain where they had first appeared!
Dozens of prodigies stood there, sowhat bewildered.
So among them had never even heard the na Wang Xiao and had no idea who he was.
So, they were very confused as to why this Wang Xiao was able to pass the assessnt.
Those who did know Wang Xiao were even more astonished!
They knew he had been participating in the God Creation Plan’s assessnt for less than two months!
That speed was simply too fast.
At that mont, in a flash of light, Wang Xiao and Ji Wuchang were also teleported out from the space that held the Great Heaven and Earth Chessboard.
Ji Wuchang clearly hadn’t recovered from the shock.
He had just seen an astonishing sword light erupt from Wang Xiao’s body. Then, the countless stars representing the chess pieces were shaken loose and refined by Wang Xiao.
After that, Elder Gu’s voice rang out, announcing that Wang Xiao had passed the final assessnt!
’Wasn’t that a little too easy?’
’Isn’t that basically cheating?!’
But then again, after playing countless gas, he too had once had the thought of simply blasting all those stars to smithereens.
However, he had extinguished the thought as soon as it appeared.
He had thought, ’I’m playing chess against the Chaos Nether King. What if I break the rules and displease him?’
He was even worried that breaking the rules would result in an automatic loss, so he had always played by the book.
It was precisely because of this hesitation that he had missed his chance to win.
In other words, the final test was about having the courage to break the rules!
Therefore, he had already failed the mont he started playing by the book.
Everything after that was just him repeating his initial failure.
"I never thought the final stage could be cleared like that. Wang Xiao, you won," Ji Wuchang said with a soft sigh.
He had always been extrely proud, even believing it was a certainty that he would one day break through to beco a Tier Nine Life.
It wasn’t until that mont that he truly understood the aning of "there’s always a higher mountain."
The man before him not only had the courage to break the rules but also the astonishing ability to execute his plan.
Perhaps only soone like him could forge a new path and create an unprecedented Magic Technique like the Celestial Human Temple.
Therefore, although Ji Wuchang felt a sense of regret, he wasn’t overly resentful.
"Just lucky, that’s all," Wang Xiao said humbly.
He knew that in terms of Talent, he wasn’t necessarily that much better than Ji Wuchang.
Ji Wuchang’s ability to draw traces of the Great Dao Rules into his body was clearly a special Talent of its own.
Unfortunately, this final stage tested more than just Talent.
It tested one’s vision to see beyond the established frawork of rules, and the ability to make those rules serve oneself.
In truth, even if Ji Wuchang had discovered the secret of the celestial do and tried to bombard the stars, he might not have succeeded.
Because shaking those stars loose seed to require one’s Yin Spirit and Inner World to have reached a certain Realm.
Thus, in the final stage, playing chess was rely a way to strengthen oneself.
By playing chess and devouring the opponent’s pieces, one could enhance their Yin Spirit and Inner World, which would then allow them to shake the stars loose and break the rules!
That was the true way to clear the final stage.
However, Wang Xiao’s Yin Spirit and Inner World were already strong enough even without playing chess.
So, he skipped the chess-playing step and went straight to the final part.
Of course, there was no need to say any of this out loud.
Just then, Qin ngyue, Louis, and others who knew Wang Xiao hurried over.
Without exception, their eyes were filled with amazent and shock.
A hint of worship could even be seen in their gazes!
They had personally witnessed Wang Xiao clear the first stage in just a few short monts.
Therefore, they had no doubt about his abilities.
It was just that Wang Xiao had cleared the stages so quickly that it still felt unreal to them.
"Wang Xiao, what were the later stages even like? How did you get through them so fast?!" Qin ngyue couldn’t help but ask.
Even with Wang Xiao’s reminder, it had taken her a full month just to scrape by the first stage.
She had just reached the second stage and hadn’t even figured it out yet when the notification ca that the assessnt was over.
It was enough to make her question her life.
’Is the gap between people really this huge?!’
Her pride, built up from a lifeti of being the adored "favored daughter of the heavens," was shattered in that instant.
’And to think I once considered Wang Xiao my rival.’
The thought made Qin ngyue feel a twinge of sha.
"Yeah, Wang, you’re just too fast. We ca in together, and I only just passed the first stage."
Louis added, his voice tinged with adoration.
"Wang, co visit us on Sea God Island when you have ti. You’re always welco." The blonde-haired, blue-eyed beauty who had entered with Wang Xiao shot him a flirtatious glance.
Wang Xiao replied, "The later stages were indeed a bit difficult. It took quite a bit of effort to pass them."
Hearing this, the others who had been stuck here for nearly thirty or forty years were left speechless.
’Quite a bit of effort? Does that an doing sothing in just over a month that they couldn’t manage in decades?!’
"There’s sothing wrong with this trial’s design! On what grounds can he pass, while I, soone who has evolved to the Eighth Limit Breaking, am stuck at the fourth stage? Give more ti, and I’ll definitely clear all the stages! This is unfair!"
