City Lord’s Mansion of Fenglin City.
Today is the day of the aptitude selection for the Heavenly Sword Sect, and many young n and won eager to join the Heavenly Sword Sect have queued up here since early morning.
When Jiang Chen and Lin Yuyan arrived, the queue had already stretched more than a mile long.
"Wow, why are there so many people?"
Jiang Chen was taken aback and spoke in surprise.
"Young master, the Heavenly Sword Sect is a top sect in Shenmu Prefecture, everyone surely wants to join!"
Lin Yuyan looked enviously at the people in the queue.
"Alright then!"
Jiang Chen reluctantly nodded and led Lin Yuyan to the end of the line, joining in the queue.
"Why are you standing outside?"
Jiang Chen turned to look at Lin Yuyan beside him, who wasn’t following behind him into the queue but was standing next to him.
"I... Should I also participate?"
Lin Yuyan hesitated for a mont.
"Why? Don’t you want to join the Heavenly Sword Sect?"
Jiang Chen looked at Lin Yuyan in confusion.
"I do, but... I’m the young master’s maid, I..."
Lin Yuyan stamred.
"Who said you’re my maid? I’ve told you, I don’t need a maid, and besides, I can’t always be with you. You need to have your own path."
Jiang Chen solemnly looked at Lin Yuyan.
Lin Yuyan’s expression changed slightly, she glanced at Jiang Chen, pursed her lips, and stood behind him.
For so reason, Lin Yuyan just wanted to follow Jiang Chen’s side. Hearing Jiang Chen say he couldn’t always stay with her, Lin Yuyan felt inexplicably sad.
Jiang Chen didn’t notice Lin Yuyan’s oddity, he raised his head and surveyed the crowd in the queue.
Most in the queue were eighteen or nineteen-year-old youths, occasionally there were also fourteen or fifteen-year-old teenagers. On both sides of the queue, so middle-aged n and won accompanied the young ones step by step, their eyes filled with anticipation as they looked at them.
This... Why does it look so much like an exam?
Jiang Chen couldn’t help but chuckle lightly.
As ti passed, it slowly beca Jiang Chen’s turn.
"Hm! You really dared to co!"
A cold snort sounded.
When Jiang Chen looked up, a young man walked out of the City Lord’s Mansion entrance, it was Liu Jianming, who was responsible for guiding participating disciples according to their power levels.
"Kid, even if you pass the aptitude selection, I won’t let you pass the combat selection!"
Liu Jianming approached Jiang Chen, speaking in a low tone.
"Have you finished your nonsense?"
Jiang Chen glanced at Liu Jianming with indifference and spoke coldly.
"Just you wait!"
Liu Jianming glared sinisterly at Jiang Chen and spoke coldly, "Age and power level."
"Twenty-seven, Semi Divine Infant Realm."
Jiang Chen replied indifferently.
"Are you really in the Semi Divine Infant Realm?"
Liu Jianming frowned at Jiang Chen with a look of surprise in his eyes.
He had always thought Jiang Chen was a Divine Infant Realm cultivator trying to use this selection to enter the Heavenly Sword Sect, but he never expected Jiang Chen to be in the Semi Divine Infant Realm. A cultivator in the Semi Divine Infant Realm could perform a Great Dao attack and even knock him back, what does this prove?
This is a once-in-a-century prodigy! If he enters the sect, he will surely receive great attention from the sect!
Moreover, Liu Jianming’s pupils shrank sharply, as a Divine Infant Realm cultivator, he couldn’t see through Jiang Chen’s realm, it could only an Jiang Chen cultivated the Soul Martial Art Technique.
Soone who cultivates the Soul Martial Art Technique and comprehends the Great Dao in the Semi Divine Infant Realm...
Liu Jianming shivered all over and shook his head vigorously.
No, I’ve already offended him, I absolutely can’t let him enter the sect. If he enters the sect, and the elders learn about his aptitude, and our conflict becos known, I will have no future in the sect!
Fortunately, Qiu Ying and the others don’t know how I got injured by him, there’s still room for maneuver. During the combat evaluation, I must kill him!
Liu Jianming frowned tightly, staring dead at Jiang Chen with a hint of chilling killing intent in his eyes.
Feeling Liu Jianming’s killing intent, Jiang Chen slightly frowned, eting Liu Jianming’s gaze fearlessly.
"You’re here."
A voice called out, Liu Jianming’s face changed instantly, and he hurriedly withdrew his killing intent.
Jiang Chen turned to see Chen Jingxuan walking in from inside.
"I’m here."
Jiang Chen responded softly.
"Co with ."
Chen Jingxuan glanced at Liu Jianming, gave a soft call.
"Can she also undergo your evaluation?"
Jiang Chen pointed at Lin Yuyan.
"She can."
Chen Jingxuan responded and turned to walk into the City Lord’s Mansion, Jiang Chen and Lin Yuyan followed.
Liu Jianming glanced at Lin Yuyan, his eyes turned, and he had an idea.
Kid, judging by your nature, you should be a low-key person, you won’t reveal your comprehension of the Great Dao, right? As long as you don’t say, you’re dead during the combat evaluation!
Liu Jianming glared venomously at Jiang Chen’s back.
Following Chen Jingxuan, Jiang Chen and Lin Yuyan arrived at the main hall of the City Lord’s Mansion. Six long tables were set up in the hall, with Qiu Ying, Tang Zhenglin, and three other Heavenly Sword Sect disciples seated behind five of them. One table remained empty, with Li Lu, Song Zhijian, and two disciples standing at the hall entrance.
Upon seeing Jiang Chen and Lin Yuyan enter, Qiu Ying and the others’ expressions subtly changed, each displaying different looks as they eyed Jiang Chen.
"Co over here."
Chen Jingxuan led Jiang Chen and Lin Yuyan to the empty long table.
Jiang Chen glanced at the table, which had a transparent sphere, a logbook, a brush, and an inkstone on it.
"Na, age, and power level."
Chen Jingxuan opened the logbook behind the table, dipped the brush in ink, and spoke softly.
"Jiang Chen, twenty-seven, Semi Divine Infant Realm."
Jiang Chen spoke lightly.
"What?"
"You’re at the Semi Divine Infant Realm?!"
"You’re cultivating the Soul Martial Art Technique?!"
Qiu Ying and the others exclaid.
A few young people walking by the hall entrance halted, looking at Jiang Chen in surprise.
Jiang Chen glanced at Qiu Ying and the others without responding, looking composedly at Chen Jingxuan.
Chen Jingxuan looked deeply at Jiang Chen and said softly, "Stretch out your hand."
Jiang Chen complied and extended his hand.
"I need to test your bone age."
Chen Jingxuan explained as he placed his hand on Jiang Chen’s wrist.
Buzz!
A surge of Primordial Spirit Power seeped from Chen Jingxuan’s hand into Jiang Chen’s body, circled around his wrist, and was retracted by Chen Jingxuan.
"Circulate your spiritual power entirely."
Chen Jingxuan spoke again.
Buzz!
A strong aura erged from Jiang Chen’s body, reaching its peak instantly.
"It seems you can break through to the Divine Infant Realm at any ti."
Chen Jingxuan looked deeply at Jiang Chen once more and gestured to the transparent sphere on the table, speaking softly, "Place your hand upon it and sense the Great Dao Aura."
Jiang Chen hesitated for a mont, puzzled as he looked at Chen Jingxuan.
