LIGHTNOVELONLINE How are you so strong !
Meanwhile, Ling Xuan had entered the lake of reflections and it was surprisingly boring.
"Did the test authorities waste all their neurons on the first two tests and completely have no idea about the 3rd Test and thus just made an extremely boring test." This was of course not the case, the truth was that the 3rd Test was meant as a battle royalesque event yet Ling Xuan with his advanced Understanding of Crimson Barrage coupled with his Perfect Understanding of The Hidden Serpent pill as well as The Potential Transmutation Art, was simply too jacked and thus nearly all the participants were bugs in front of him.
"I'm really that one op protagonist in those fast food novels." Carto Harts sighed and suddenly stopped.
"Wait, I'm becoming arrogant ! Are you kidding me !" Carto wanted to cry.
As Ling Xuan hopped from one stone to another, he heard a shuffle and looked around.
"Who's there?" Ling Xuan spoke with apparent boredom.
"kekekekekeke , don't you recognise me little bro ?" A shrill voice rang out.
"Nope, please introduce yourselves before I beat you up." Ling Xuan with an uninterested smile replied.
"Humph ! What arrogance for a fool ! Fine, I'll show myself." Suddenly from one of the shrubs near the lake, a figure emerged.
"Now do you recognise me !" The figure spoke with a grin, his face was filled with an unholy amount of freckles and his physique could be classified as skinny and tall, Ling Xuan also noticed something attached to his back.
"Yeah I don't recognise you."
"Hahahahah I knew you wouldn't forget about me ! Wait what, you still don'[t recognize me ?!" The boy laughed yet suddenly stopped.
"Nuh uh, not a clue." Ling Xuan shook his head.
"You bastard, you dare to forget me, Ling Kai, your cousin !" The figure proclaimed with anger.
"Ohhhhh Ling Kai hmmmmm lemme think." Ling Xuan tried to remember.
"You !" Ling Kai wanted to puke blood.
"Ah, I remember ! you're the most talented prodigy of our generation in the clan !" Ling Xuan finally remembered and answered.
"Yes yes you're right I'm the greatest of this generation ! Someone who reached intermediate Adept while 15 !" Ling Kai answered proudly, suddenly he felt goosebumps.
"What is happening ! Is it another participant or a beast !" Ling Kai became alarmed and tried to sense his enemy's whereabouts yet he couldn't find anything.
"Ling Xuan ! Be alert! I can sense a powerful foe nearby !" Ling Kai whispered and turned towards Ling Xuan when his pupils dilated.
There it was ! The danger was Ling Xuan !
BOOM !
Ling Kai quickly tried escaping but something grabbed his leg and pulled him.
"No !" Ling Kai shouted terrified.
"Fight me mate ! I want to see how powerful you are! " Ling Xuan grinned.
"What ?" The scared Ling Kai asked, confused.
"If you don't fight me with your most powerful attack I'm going to make you feel true pain." Ling Xuan showed Ling Kai his fist.
Ling Kai could sense the Qi being emanated from Ling Xuan's fist and couldn't help but gulp.
"If that fist touches me I'm as good as dead." Ling Kai thought to himself.
"So yes or no?" Ling Xuan asked
"Yes ! But will you let me go after that?" Ling Kai quickly agreed.
"Yup, you have Ling Xuan's word." Ling Xuan shrugged and let Ling Kai go.
Ling Kai took out the metal staff from his back and inhaled deeply.
Slowly Qi began to agglomerate on the head of the staff and slowly swept up by Ling Kai's arm.
Ling Kai's face became full of vitality as the Qi entered his body and began to circulate.
Ultimate Legacy Martial Technique - Great Python Barrage !
Ling Kai ran and stabbed his metal staff towards Ling Xuan.
"So this is the true Crimson Barrage very well. If he is attacking using his strongest move, why shouldn't I !" Ling Xuan, seeing the attack, used his most powerful technique in response.
4th Grade Skill - Martial Ghost Fang !
BOOM !
"Did I do it !?" Ling Kai excitedly thought as he hit something.
WHOOSH !
Suddenly an attack was launched from behind Ling Kai who somersaulted to dodge.
BANG !
The attack instantly caused the earth under it to crumble.
"So powerful !" Ling Kai couldn't help but feel glad he had good instincts.
WHOOSH !
As Ling Kai was complimenting himself another attack was launched and hit Ling Kai at last.
BANG !
Ling Kai fell face flat onto one of the rocks jutting out of the lake and made him tumble down in the water.
Ling Xuan watched as Ling Kai was swept up by the current and dragged to somewhere else.
"How overpowered am I compared to others my age?" Ling Xuan thought to himself.
He had only used Martial Ghost Fang and only bent the air around himself using Hidden Serpent Pill to create a pressurised wind attack and it was enough to knock out the 'prodigy' of the clan easily.
"Well, the test has already reached its end, the next time I'll fight someone it'll be in a sect, I hope those nurtured juniors are powerful." Chuckling Ling Xuan continued to traverse the lake.
—--------------------------------------------------
As Ling Xuan completed the test on the other hand in one of the 12 Central Checkposts, a figure could be seen sleeping on the chair.
CAW CAW CAW
The cawing of a crow quickly woke the guard up from his sleep.
"One day I'll cook you and feed you to the others, you devil !" The guard grumbled in annoyance as he unfolded a parchment from the crow's mouth.
Prodigy Scouted
Name - Ling Xuan
Talent Level - 3 stars +
The guard's eyes widened as his jaw dropped.
The Selection committee had assigned a system of talent classification for the 2 Great Forces to better select. The 1st Star meant an average talent, the 2nd Star meant above average and 3rd Star meant exceptional yet if there was an extra symbol such as '+' it meant that the person was either capable of a higher classification.
"I have to report this to the sect quickly !" The guard hurriedly took out a cage with a bird inside and was about to open it when the key slipped from his hands.
"Damn it !" He hurriedly knelt and picked up the key.
THUD !
Something again fell, it was the guard's detached head.
A figure was staring at the parchment and smiled.
"Who would've thought that my junior would actually be a prodigy." The figure chuckled as the paper crumpled.
"Fate is strange, nobody can guess what'll happen and how it'll happen ! Hahahahaha ! Truly funny ! I must repay this junior once ! I remember that he was interested in Mythical Beasts, perhaps I should give him a book." Shang Zhang scratched his chin as he thought.
"Eh whatever I'll just ask him the next time we meet, I guess." Shang Zhang threw away the crumpled paper.
