C11 Admission Assessment

The enrollment assessment day came.

Within the Martial Arts Practice field stood the powerful warriors. Each represented the Chen Family, the Zhou Family, Li Family, and the Wang Family. The Zhong, Huang, Xie, and other known families had also sent their mighty warriors. Even the few other College Martial houses in Imperial City had theirs on the field.

Zhou Mubai stood inside the Zhou Family camp. Song Xinling was sitting on a chair beside him.

Zhou Mubai was a man with extraordinary talent and noble status. He also had a very strong influence in Imperial City, while Song Xinling was a rare beauty.

The two of them attracted a lot of attention and often received a lot of praise.

"The examination is about to begin. Why hasn't Wang Loong arrived yet?"

Puzzled, his eyes searched for Wang Loong from the crowd below occasionally, but he couldn't see him.

He brushed away the thought of Wang Loong no longer existing in this world since last night.

The Tianxuan Mansion attached great importance to this enrollment assessment, and there were elders in charge of the four halls. It was Yue Gu who represented Tianxuan Hall.

Chen Xiangtian, the Chen Family Head's younger brother, supervised the Tian Ji Hall. He had joined the Tianxuan Mansion for more than 20 years and became the Tian Ji Hall's Elder.

Since he was also Chen Aotian's uncle, Chen Xiangtian had always hoped that Nangong Lingshuang would join the Tian Ji Hall.

"The Tianxuan Mansion has always paid attention to the talent of its disciples. But no matter strong the power is, the combat ability is as crucial. The first stage of the test is to test your combat strength. Anyone under the age of eighteen who has reached the Fifth Layer of Body Refining Stage or above can go on stage. This assessment consists of the chaotic battle system. At the end of the battle, only three thousand people can stay on stage. Then they can proceed to the next round of assessment."

An elder from the Tianxuan Mansion announced in a loud voice as the examination commenced.

The crowds below went silent as their eyes narrowed.

A chaotic battle was the most direct method, and the risk of getting eliminated was high. Those who could last until the end would mean that they were a strong opponent.

Slowly, one by one, warriors emerged from the crowd and walked towards the battle platform at the center of the Martial Arts Practice Field. All of them seemed to be teenagers.

Many of them were geniuses from big families.

Zhong Tao was a genius from the Zhong Family in the Imperial City. He was only sixteen years old, yet he cultivated the Seventh Layer of Body Refining Stage. He had awakened the Yellow Rank Lion as well as the Battle Spirit and had become an extraordinary figure.

There was also Xie Wenlong, who was born with great strength. He was only 17 years old, but he could lift a thousand kilograms. Although he had yet to awaken his Battle Spirit, his cultivation had already reached the peak of the Eighth Layer of Body Refining Stage.

Aside from them was also sixteen years old, Huang Jing. She was from the Imperial City's Huang Family and was known as the Heaven's Pride Girl as she had a beautiful appearance. She was at the peak of the Seventh Layer of Body Refining Stage. She had awakened the Yellow Rank White Crane Battle Spirit, and her speed was unparalleled.

As Huang Jing stepped onto the fighting stage, she immediately attracted the attention of many people. No matter where she went, she would always become the center of attention. After all, there weren't many girls who were as talented and beautiful as her.

However, when Nangong Lingshuang stood up and stepped onto the fighting stage, everyone's gaze shifted to her.

This undoubtedly proved that Nangong Lingshuang and Huang Jing were both outstanding.

The elders from the Tianxuan Mansion Four Halls were all staring at Nangong Lingshuang. Their eyes were burning with passion as they were determined to take her in as their disciple after the examination ended.

They couldn't care more about the other participants.

Nangong Lingshuang proudly looked at everyone with confidence, as if she was declaring that she was the main character of the day.

Meanwhile, Nangong Chen stared at the pretty figure on the stage. His eyes were filled with gratification.

As the pride of the entire Nangong Family, It was her who gave him the chance to stand on equal footing with the powerful people of the Imperial City.

'Nangong Lingshuang has awakened her Green rank phoenix battle spirit. She will definitely have the Four Halls of Martial Mansion fighting over her in today's examination. She has such a dazzling presence.'

The people in the crowd somehow had the same thought to themselves. They were staring at her as if she was a goddess.

One by one, several young men stepped onto the stage. Although there were many geniuses present on the stage, they still wanted to fight for the 2,000 nominated spots.

Zhou Mubai's eyes sparkled. He couldn't wait any longer for Wang Loong to arrive.

"Junior Sister, I'm going to the fighting stage,"

Zhou Mubai said to Song Xinling with a smile.

"Remember, you are not weaker than Nangong Lingshuang. I believe in you,"

Song Xinling reminded Zhou Mubai. She then smiled and gestured for him to go.

Zhou Mubai's appearance on the stage caused quite a stir. He was the Zhou Family's genius and one of the best amongst the Body Refining Stage youths in the Imperial City. With his status, he was totally at the same level as Nangong Lingshuang.

After about a stick of incense, nearly 20,000 people gathered on the vast battle platform. Among them was a young man with a silver mask. He was carrying a spear on his back and had particularly caught some of the people's attention.

The young man stood proudly. The ethereal aura around him made him stand out from everyone else.

Additionally, his unique outfit immediately attracted the attention of many people.

"That masked man seems to be very unique,"

Someone from the crowd said.

"Yeah. He is wearing a mask. Is he pretending to be mysterious? Did he think he can advance to the next round just like that?"

"Well, people like him usually don't have much strength. They're just scaring people."

Several people were talking indifferently. Their words were carrying contempt and mockery.

Nangong Lingshuang was also looking at the masked man. Her beautiful eyes slightly narrowed.

'He looks so familiar,'

Nangong Lingshuang thought to herself. A figure suddenly appeared in her mind.

'No. There is no way he's him! His cultivation has not improved for years, and he's only at the third level of the Body Refining Stage. How could he appear on this stage?'

Recalling Ye Feng's waste of cultivation, she shook the thought away and turned her attention away from him.

Meanwhile, Yue Gu's eyes narrowed as he stood on the grandstand. He knew the silver masked man was Ye Feng. As a True Martial Stage expert, his senses were very sharp.

At that moment, when Yue Gu sensed the familiar aura on Ye Feng's body, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

'The kid really came!'

Ye Feng was the person he had his attention to for a while now. Back when Ye Feng rejected him, Yue Gu felt dejected.

From the direction of the Li Family camp, a young man's eyes were burning with passion. In his pocket, a Soul bead continuously trembled, producing a buzzing sound.

"You dare participate in the examination when you killed my younger brother? Your life is mine!"

The young man's eyes flickered coldly as a seemingly strange force within the Soul bead guided his gaze through the crowd. His eyes stopped on Ye Feng, who was wearing a silver mask.

The young man was Li Hong. His brother was Li Fei, whom Ye Feng had killed in the Emerald Mountain Range.

Lee Hong was the Li Family's direct descendant. He had entered the Tianxuan Mansion three years ago to cultivate. Currently, his cultivation base had reached the Body Refining Stage level 9, and he had awakened the Yellow Rank Hungry Wolf Battle Spirit. A rare genius in the Imperial City.

Meanwhile, on the battle platform, Ye Feng wasn't paying attention to the discussions and gazes of the others. Moreover, he only came here to participate in the examination and to let Nangong Lingshuang know how low her so-called talent was.

Inadvertently, Ye Feng's gaze swept across Zhou Mubai. His eyes underneath the silver mask were filled with bone-piercing coldness.

He would never forget the hate he felt when Zhou Mubai used the excuse that Ye Feng and Song Xinling were traveling together in Emerald Mountain Range to send numerous experts to kill him the night before.

"The test begins!"

A voice suddenly echoed in the stands.

The crowd instantly cheered as their eyes glimmered excitedly. It was, after all, a competition between geniuses. Who wouldn't want to know who was the strongest amongst them?

A strange force enveloped the stage. It was suppressing all the participants' cultivation base to the Fifth Layer of Body Refining Stage.

Everyone on the platform started to move. Some began to pick who to eliminate. They knew it was the only way to advance to the next stage.

Although, there were those few participants who did not move but still wanted to pass. However, their thoughts were a bit naive.

Around twenty thousand people were participating in the exam, but only three thousand people could advance. In other words, the elimination rate is nearly six-sevenths. To advance, an average of eight opponents had to be eliminated on average.

The battle was nearly going out of control. Violent attacks continued to bloom, and everyone was fighting with all their might.

However, none of them dared to provoke the geniuses in the field. Those who were near them blatantly avoided the sharp lights with fear in their eyes.

Nangong Lingshuang was especially dazzling. The Phoenix battle spirit bloomed, and a five-colored halo surrounded her body. She was like a phoenix goddess, proud and haughty. No one dared to provoke her.

On the opposite side, Zhou Mubai stood proudly with her. They were like two peerless beauties on the battle platform, dazzling and unparalleled. No one dared to compete with them.

"Pretending to be mysterious. Get out of the way!"

A cold voice said from behind Ye Feng. It sounded arrogant.

Ye Feng turned around and saw four young men in front of him. They all had a superior look in their eyes as if they were high and mighty.

It seemed that he had blocked their path.

They were from the Chen Family, and they were the guardians that the Chen Family had specially arranged for Nangong Lingshuang. They wanted to enter the Tianxuan Mansion with Nangong Lingshuang to protect her.

Ye Feng knew who these people were. His heart felt incomparably cold. The Nangong Family that wanted to kill him back then was related to the Chen Family.

"But what if I say no?"

Ye Feng's voice was as cold as the light that flashed across his eyes. He looked extremely unrestrained as his long robe fluttered in the wind.

"Then I'll have to beat you until you get lost!"

One of them took a step forward. As the aura on his body bloomed, a violent iron fist suddenly swung towards Ye Feng's body impulsively. The force was fierce, and its power was astonishing.

Ye Feng's expression darkened. He had awakened a Green Rank Divine Dragon Battle Spirit and had tempered his combat strength with the Demonic Beast countless times. His strength was already terrifying. Why would he be afraid of a few young men from the Chen Family?

Ye Feng refused. His body cleverly moved to the side, and the young man's iron fist missed him.

He instantly sent out his heavy fist. It was overbearing as endless elemental energy converged on his fist. The destructive power was potent, and it heavily struck the young man's body.

The young man let out a muffled groan when the punch landed on him. It caused him to spit out a mouthful of blood as Ye Feng sent him flying.

"The masked man isn't weak either!"

The crowd saw the scene and immediately turned serious. They now had a basic understanding of Ye Feng's strength.

"How dare a trash like him be so arrogant in front of me? You have completely lost the face of the Chen family!"

Ye Feng said as he snickered at the young man below the fighting stage.
