"Phew!"
Zhang nglong exhaled a thick breath of stale air as the last drop of Cold Marrow Jade Dew in the pool was completely absorbed by his body. With a burst of Strange Fire, the temperature of the entire room returned to normal.
From initially being able to absorb only one drop of Cold Marrow Jade Dew a day, Zhang nglong could now absorb around ten to twenty drops daily. He had thoroughly digested this harvest, and the at of the white-feathered bird hatchling had also fully entered his stomach.
This truly was one of the most mystical treasures of the world. In just ten days, Gu Xiao's body surged directly to a Sixth Grade Spiritual Body! anwhile, Zhang nglong's own body advanced to the Divine Breath Seventh Grade Peak!
It's important to know that such accumulation would take ordinary people with unique cultivation conditions several years of arduous practice. Moreover, Zhang nglong's body capacity far exceeded that of a normal person, proving just how dense the energy contained within the Cold Marrow Jade Dew was.
"If I were to face Lin Yuan again now, without activating the Bloodline Power on my body, I should be able to easily suppress him in terms of strength, right?" Zhang nglong felt the explosive power roaring to be released within him. In this superpower's trial, he likely wouldn't find an opponent anymore.
What intrigued Zhang nglong more now was what form this evaluation would ultimately take!
Actually, Long Sen knew quite a lot about this information. After all, he ca from a Ninth Grade Empire, and many predecessors had participated in examinations, with quite a few being selected into superpowers. Although most were eliminated at the stage of being just interns, they did know quite a bit about the examination details.
First, the format of each examination was different, which directly prevented those with resources from having a natural advantage by learning the exam content.
However, the overall format remained quite fixed, comprising three types.
One type is the survival type, where everyone is placed in a dangerous Ancient Ruins and must survive there for a period. The difference each ti lies in the dangers encountered. This type is comparatively the easiest because people can cooperate, with minimal internal strife.
Another type is the battle royale, where everyone engages in combat, selecting the most outstanding individuals. This is also the examination format with the highest mortality rate.
The third type is the exploration type, where the pass rate is determined by the harvest gained. This is the most uncertain examination thod, simply because luck plays a major role.
There was once a plump fellow at the Divine Breath Fourth Grade realm, and among the billions, this realm was almost at the bottom!
However, he had incredible luck. While so unlucky fellows were teleported to dangerous places or to areas devoid of treasures, struggling to find treasures or even stay alive,
he was teleported directly into a natural treasure trove, filled with a variety of Exotic Flowers and Herbs, and there were even so rare elixirs!
A year later, he erged again, upgraded to a Divine Breath Eighth Grade expert, and not a complete dicine pot type, because he had undergone various treasure-driven training and molding, making him one of the best in his grade. Moreover, after entering a superpower, he thrived by leveraging the treasures he obtained from the testing ground to make connections!
Typically, the three exam forms rotate according to a certain pattern. Long Sen told Zhang nglong that the last exam was a battle royale, and the one before that involved treasure hunting in an Ancient Ruins, so this ti it's likely to be a survival type examination.
The difficulty of survival type examinations fluctuates greatly. When simple, they focus on scoring points, but when the difficulty escalates, they can be extrely dangerous, with death rates not much lower than those of the battle royale type exams.
"Gu brother!"
Zhang nglong had just freshened up when Long Sen ca looking for him.
"What are you up to this early in the morning?" Zhang nglong hadn't even wiped the cleanser from his face, "Why the rush, are you racing to reincarnate?"
"Gu brother, have you lost your mind? Don't you know today is the day the examination begins?" Long Sen said, feeling wronged.
"Ah? It's today?" Zhang nglong smiled sheepishly, "Sorry, sorry, I've been so focused on training lately that I lost track of ti, hahaha."
Long Sen rolled his eyes speechlessly, "Hurry up and go, the exam starts in two hours, we can't just arrive right on ti, can we?"
Zhang nglong quickly washed his face and left the hotel with Long Sen.
Usually, the entire Capital City was bustling, especially this busy area, but today, it was almost empty, with everyone heading in the sa direction.
Not just those participating in the selection as Heavenly Prides, but even the whole Capital City's residents rushed over, as it wasn't every day one could witness the big figures of the superpowers.
"Look there, it's Gu Tianle!"
"What Gu Tianle, that's just an alias. His na is Gu Xiao, and you wouldn't believe it, but he hails from a Fourth Grade Empire, truly a rags-to-riches story."
"Would anyone have expected him to be so powerful if they hadn't seen him face off against Lin Yuan!"
"He seems so approachable, doesn't carry that typical genius air. If he gives us a hand, we might stand a chance."
"Shh, don't be fooled by appearances. The humiliating photo of a Dao Realm expert who crossed him is still circulating wildly on the Empire's social dia!"
...
All along the way, people either pointed at or quietly discussed Zhang nglong, but when his gaze fell on them, they quickly gave fawning smiles.
Zhang nglong ignored them, and soon he and Long Sen arrived at the gathering area this ti.
This was a plain on the outskirts of the Hong Yun Empire's capital, where billions of Heavenly Prides gathered, and the Heavenly Prides list had sohow been relocated here.
The rankings on the Heavenly Prides list were still changing at a very high frequency, yet Zhang nglong's ranking consistently remained at the top.
"Gu brother!" Lin Yuan seed to have been waiting for Zhang nglong for a while and walked over with a smile.
"Did you break through?" Zhang nglong asked, for Lin Yuan's aura now felt even stronger than the last ti they t.
"Hehe, after our battle, I gained so insights and broke through to Divine Breath Eighth Grade."
"Wow, so far, I've never heard of anyone reaching Divine Breath Eighth Grade at this age?" Long Sen murmured from the side, "That's just monstrous."
"Now if we were to compete again, I might not lose to you," Lin Yuan said confidently.
"Too bad," Zhang nglong said, releasing his blood and energy power. "I also made so breakthroughs!"
"I... Sixth Grade Spiritual Body?" Lin Yuan was suddenly on the verge of tears, "I thought improving would let catch up, but you jumped two grades at once?"
Facing Zhang nglong with a Fourth Grade Spiritual Body, Lin Yuan wouldn't have full confidence, let alone now with Zhang nglong at Sixth Grade, the gap in their strength not only didn't narrow but actually widened.
"You, this guy," Lin Yuan smiled bitterly, "Monster doesn't even begin to describe you, you're simply a freak!"
