Chapter 5: The test begins, alarming the Palace Master!

【 Jianghuai City Star Martial Hall Branch sign-in successful, reward: Epiphany Point * 3. 】

As Ye Fan followed Instructor Wu Xie into the Star Martial Hall,

a phantom panel appeared before his eyes, displaying a prompt.

This made Ye Fan overjoyed.

For a Martial Artist to improve their strength, Aptitude and Comprehension Ability are two extremely important aspects.

However, generally, the former is easier to detect and measure.

This is why, after Jinlian awakened her S-Rank spiritual power, she was directly admitted by Jiangnan Martial University and signed a B-Rank special cultivation contract.

As for Comprehension Ability, it is truly somewhat elusive.

And Epiphany is like a jewel on the crown of Comprehension Ability, an existence that is sought after but rarely found by countless Martial Artists, and even terrifying high-Rank powerhouses.

However, Ye Fan was best at this.

Therefore, after Awakening the sign-in enlightenment system, Ye Fan was full of confidence in himself.

“The Star Martial Hall’s test is divided into three parts.

First, Aptitude testing; second, combat validation; and third, Comprehension Ability!”

As he walked, Instructor Wu Xie introduced this to Ye Fan.

In reality,

after learning that Jinlian had awakened S-Rank spiritual power, he was a little less optimistic about Ye Fan.

After all, S-Rank spiritual power was enough to touch the threshold of Blue Star China’s three top Martial Universities.

It was equivalent to stepping one foot into the Ranks of top Geniuses.

As for Ye Fan,

it was just a spur-of-the-moment decision he made last night, feeling that the young man was somewhat extraordinary.

Now, in comparison,

it seemed that the Jinlian girl was even more outstanding.

“Old Wu, if you want to withdraw now, there’s still time. I’ll give you one chance to beg for my mercy.”

Bai Nuli extended a finger and chuckled.

He seemed to be giving Wu Xie a way out,

but in reality, it was a provocation.

He was afraid that Wu Xie would renege on the debt and not dare to truly fulfill the bet.

“Hmph, afraid of you, little dog.”

Wu Xie snorted coldly.

Hearing this, Ye Fan also felt a bit like laughing inside; this Instructor Wu was quite cute.

“Haha, good. Since that’s the case, both test takers, please enter the test passage.”

Bai Nuli laughed heartily, as if he had victory firmly in his grasp.

Ye Fan stood before a passage, exhaling softly, poised and ready.

Seeing that Ye Fan didn’t even look at her, Jinlian snorted softly.

Whoosh.

When the metal door opened, both of them rushed directly inside.

Meanwhile, Wu Xie, Bai Nuli, and Bai Mufeng stood before a large glass screen.

Here, the situation of Ye Fan and Jinlian, who were undergoing the test, was completely visible.

“Buzz.”

As Jinlian stepped into the passage, layers of spiritual light emanated from her body.

It was so rich, like the golden mist in the morning glow, captivating to behold.

“It really is S-Rank spiritual power!”

Wu Xie’s brows furrowed slightly, while Bai Nuli and his nephew, Bai Mufeng, had smiles all over their faces.

In contrast, Ye Fan’s passage was dim and silent.

Not a trace of spiritual light appeared.

“Heh heh, just as Sister Lian said, this kid’s Aptitude is mediocre, with no highlights at all.”

Bai Mufeng sneered.

“Old Wu, this is the little guy you’re betting on? Heh... speaking of trash... holy cow... what’s going on...”

Bai Nuli was just about to mock and ridicule him.

The next moment, his eyes widened, and he couldn’t help but blurt out a curse.

“Rumble!”

Unlike the golden spiritual power like the morning glow that appeared on Jinlian’s side,

after a brief silence, a majestic and domineering phantom appeared on Ye Fan’s side.

As soon as it appeared,

the entire passage seemed to vibrate, like an earthquake.

“This... this, could it be a special Bloodline, a powerful Physique!?”

Instructor Wu Xie was filled with both surprise and joy.

If Jinlian’s side was like the light of a firefly,

then at this moment, Ye Fan’s side was like the bright moon in the sky!

The visual effect was incomparably domineering.

The words that Bai Nuli next to him was about to mock were directly swallowed back.

He felt a lump in his throat, his face flushed red!

Bai Mufeng, too, looked somewhat comical, like a clown!

You call this mediocre Aptitude?

pretend to be a pig to eat the tiger!

Star Martial Hall, Linjiang Branch, top floor.

A vast office.

Here, all kinds of facilities were available, including a training room, reception room, office area, and other extra-large exclusive spaces.

“Hmm? What’s that commotion?! Such a domineering aura, could it be a special Bloodline Physique appearing?!”

Swish.

In an instant,

his figure disappeared directly.

“Special Physique? How is that possible! This Ye Fan is just a waste from an ordinary family, how could he awaken a special Physique!”

Bai Mufeng couldn’t believe it, and at the same time, he was full of jealousy.

If it was truly as he perceived, then Ye Fan’s Aptitude would probably surpass both him and Jinlian.

Bai Nuli glanced at Bai Mufeng but didn’t speak.

“Don’t worry, Uncle, this Ye Fan is just a simpleton who only knows how to cultivate bitterly.

He was kicked out of the Southern University training camp yesterday, so his Qi and Blood value is probably less than fifty; he’s definitely a weakling.”

“In the second stage, combat validation, he will definitely reveal his true colors!”

Bai Mufeng tried to make amends, attempting to save face.

Whoosh, whoosh.

The first stage of Aptitude validation was complete, and the second stage’s alloy door opened.

The tall figure of Ye Fan walked out and saw that the space for this second stage was like a circular battle arena.

“Test taker detected, Qi and Blood value has surpassed one hundred, reaching the Lingxi Realm.”

“Combat opponent parameters, setting...”

A mechanical voice came from the battle arena where Ye Fan stood.

“Lingxi Realm... impossible!”

Bai Mufeng was completely dumbfounded.

According to Jinlian, this Ye Fan was a mediocre waste who only knew how to cultivate bitterly.

His Qi and Blood value was only around fifty.

How could he, after one night, not only possibly possess a terrifying Physique but also have his Qi and Blood break through one hundred and reach the Lingxi Realm?!

Bai Nuli coldly glanced at Bai Mufeng, a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

How was the intelligence gathered? Isn’t this a slap in the face? Isn’t this embarrassing?

“Hmph.”

With a delicate shout, on the other battle arena, Jinlian had already begun to engage in combat with a humanoid figure formed from a metallic liquid droplet.

Relying on her graceful and ethereal movement technique, her fighting was highly visually appealing.

“Test taker, if you feel unable to continue, you can directly call a stop or surrender. Of course, this also signifies the end of the second stage of the test.”

The mechanical prompt sounded.

“Understood.”

Ye Fan nodded lightly and said.

Whoosh.

The next moment, Ye Fan saw a mass of silver liquid emerge.

Then, it transformed into a humanoid figure.

Feeling its aura, it should be equivalent to a Martial Artist who had just stepped into the Lingxi Realm.

These liquid silver guardians were obtained by several Martial Halls from ancient civilization ruins; they were agile and versatile.

“Swish!”

The next instant, the silver humanoid attacked Ye Fan.

“Wang-level martial arts — Tyrant King Fist!”

“First Form — Land Reclamation!”

“Bang!”

Suddenly,

a loud explosion echoed.

Wu Xie, Bai Nuli, and Bai Mufeng, who were watching the battle through the glass screen,

all had their pupils suddenly contract.

Holy cow?

One punch!?

The first silver guardian that attacked Ye Fan was directly blasted apart by the young man’s single punch!

It was simply overwhelmingly fierce!

Meanwhile, in another area, Jinlian was already fighting against three Martial Artists formed from silver liquid droplets.

However, she seemed to be struggling a bit.

Completely different from Jinlian’s entangled fight,

Ye Fan’s Cultivation Technique was full of the exhilarating feeling of violent aesthetics.

The first one was blasted apart, then two silver guardians appeared!

“Bang, bang!”

Again, two punches, directly exploding them!

Three silver figures surrounded Ye Fan in a triangle.

However, in just a few breaths, they were directly blasted apart by that domineering fist!

Wu Xie took a deep breath, his body trembling slightly with excitement, and his heart was filled with wild joy!

My goodness, this kid completely exceeded his expectations!

Buzz.

Just then, there was a slight ripple in the air behind them.

“Hall Master Yin!”

“Greetings, Hall Master!”

“Hall Master!”

All three were startled. At this moment, a young man who looked to be in his twenties appeared.

It was none other than Yin Shanyue, the Hall Master of the Jianghuai City Star Martial Hall Branch!

The highest leader of the entire Jianghuai City Star Martial Hall, a truly important figure!

Their test had actually alarmed the Hall Master?

“Instructor Wu, I heard this kid was specially invited by you?”

“Where did you dig up this little monster...”

Yin Shanyue looked at Wu Xie, appearing amiable, and asked with a smile.
