High-Level Martial Era - Chapter 823

Chapter 823: Chapter 428: Jue Xing Realm! Two Paths_4
 

“I heard that Xu Yuan has been cultivating for less than forty years. What a monster! He’s probably going to be admitted under the Heavenly Divine Gate.” These Pseudo-Gods were chatting freely.

Most of them were responsible for nurturing the young talents in their respective Divine Kingdoms, naturally very well-informed about such matters.

“Haha.”

“Your praises are too much.” Sha Xi Pseudo-God chuckled: “Xu Yuan is indeed a genius carefully nurtured by the King, but after all, he’s still young. It would be a success if he could break into the top ten this time… To become a Flying Heaven Saint Heir, he probably needs to wait a few more years.”

“Don’t be modest.”

“Tell Xu Yuan that he must challenge the Saint Heir! Haha, otherwise, this trial assessment would be too boring.”

For this group of Pseudo-Gods, they would lead a team to Jue Xing Ancient City every twenty years.

This kind of talent selection is very important to Flying Heaven Semi-Divine, but it’s just a ‘job’ for them.

Naturally, they’d hope for something different.

“That depends on Xu Yuan.” Sha Xi Pseudo-God’s response was vague; he was not sure how Li Yuan would act.

After all, for a top-tier talent like Li Yuan who was destined to become a True God, a Pseudo-God like him did not dare to offer much guidance.

…

Time passed.

One Divine Kingdom team after another arrived, and several hours later, the square had already gathered over ten thousand Flying Heaven Semi-Divine.

“More than twelve hundred teams?” Li Yuan was slightly surprised, his Divine Sense could easily inquire into the entire scene.

The East Domain boasts eight hundred Divine Kingdoms, even if there are some discrepancies, the difference should not be this big.

“Don’t be surprised.”

“Besides the eight hundred Divine Kingdoms of the East Domain, Jue Xing Ancient City also has some territories in other areas.” Jiang Shan smiled: “Like the Starry Sky outside, there are millions of Life Stars. Although each Life Star births few strong individuals… the cumulative number is still quite astonishing, and naturally, some talents will be born.”

“Um.” Li Yuan nodded slightly.

Finally, when the number of teams exceeded thirteen hundred.

“Whoosh~”

A wave of invisible fluctuation suddenly swept over the entire square, and the bustling square instantly quietened down.

A moment of silence.

“Boom!” An invisible pressure enveloped the heaven and earth, the faces of the tens of thousands of Flying Heaven Semi-Divine in the square changed involuntarily, with many at the Flying Heaven Level trembling, clearly struggling to bear this terrifying pressure.

Hoo!

Silently, a tall figure in red Combat Armor appeared in the void, and the destructive aura he exuded caused even a powerful Semi Divine like Jiang Shan to gasp.

A True God!

Li Yuan’s face also changed slightly, feeling that the aura of this Red-armored Divine being seemed even more terrifying than that of Jiang Yuan True God.

Of course, Li Yuan also knew that it was because Jiang Yuan True God had fully concealed his aura when facing him.

“I, the Hall Master of ‘Divine Fire Hall’ in Jue Xing Ancient City.” The towering figure in red armor said in a thunderous voice: “You may call me ‘Chi Yang’.”

Chi Yan True God!

“I am very pleased.”

“Today, the total number of Flying Heaven and Semi-Divine that have come to the Jue Xing Realm has exceeded fifteen thousand.” Chi Yang True God spoke slowly: “Among them, there are about nine thousand at the Flying Heaven Level, and about six thousand at the Semi Divine Level.”

“First, we will carry out the assessment for the Flying Heaven Level.”

“You have two choices, first, to participate in the trial pathway, and as long as the evaluation Points reach 80, you can become a Flying Heaven Level Reserve Member.” Chi Yang True God continued slowly: “If you fail, then you’ll train in the Trial Camp for five years. If you still cannot pass through the trial pathway after five years… return to the Divine Kingdom.”

Everyone listened quietly.

These rules, almost everyone knew about them. Like why Leng Yan desperately wanted to stay in the top ten of the Flying Heaven List?

It was because even if the assessment failed, he could still train in the Jue Xing Realm for five years.

“Rumble~”

Suddenly, dozens of spatial passageways appeared in the void, the passageways were dark and it was impossible to see the scenes within.

“The second choice.”

“Is to challenge the top one hundred Flying Heaven Level Reserve Members.” Chi Yang True God continued: “If the challenge is successful, you can take over the original ranking of these reserve members, and you can continue to challenge, up to two times.”

“Also, the rewards obtained will be ten times higher than that of the ranking rewards.”

“For example, challenging the hundredth place, the normal reward is 1,000 Fangshen Crystals, but if the challenge is successful, it is 10,000 Fangshen Crystals.”

“However, if you fail in the challenge… you will also lose the opportunity to enter the Trial Camp.” Chi Yan True God said: “Think carefully on how to choose.”

Silence.

Everyone understood.

Two paths, one path is to go through the trial pathway, there are no extra rewards but you are guaranteed to train in the Trial Camp for five years.

The other path is the challenge, with extremely high rewards but also high risks.

How to make a choice is in some ways, a test for all the Trialists.

After a full ten seconds.

“Is there anyone who chooses to challenge the Reserve Members?” Chi Yan True Saint asked in a deep voice: “If so, fly up into the sky.”

Immediately.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! From over a thousand teams, dozens of figures flew out… obviously, there were Flying Heaven Level geniuses who were full of confidence in their own strength.

Li Yuan was naturally among them.

The rewards were tempting.

Challenging the lowest ‘hundredth place’, once successful, would gain ten thousand Divine Crystals.

“Good, there are not a few courageous people.” Chi Yang True God nodded slightly: “Directly state the rank you wish to challenge.”

“One hundredth place.”

“One hundredth place.”

“One hundredth place.”

…

“One hundredth place.”

…The thirty or so Flying Heaven Level talents who chose to challenge almost unanimously chose the hundredth place.

After all, they must first strive for a safety net to avoid being directly eliminated and sent back to their Divine Kingdom, that would be too unjust.

“Rank ten.” A voice suddenly rang out.

This voice wasn’t loud, but mixed in with the chorus of ‘hundredth place’ it stood out starkly.

In a moment.

Whether it was the tens of thousands of Flying Heaven Semi-Divine talents below or the thousands of Pseudo-Gods on the observation platform, their gazes all converged on that figure—Li Yuan.

The one who shouted out the challenge for the tenth place, was Li Yuan.

“Directly challenge the first? Too risky, if I fail it would be too unjust. The hundredth place? Too conservative, the tenth place as a baseline, should be more appropriate.” Li Yuan thought it through thoroughly.

When it’s time to fight, you have to fight.

Can’t be too conservative.

The hundredth place would reward ten thousand Divine Crystals, so how much for the tenth place? It should reward tens of thousands of Divine Crystals.

The voice was not too loud, but mixed in with the many ‘hundredth place’ calls it was still strikingly conspicuous.

In an instant.

Whether it was the tens of thousands of Flying Heaven Semi-Divine talents below, or the thousands of Pseudo-Gods on the observation stand, all eyes converged on that figure—Li Yuan.

The one who shouted out the challenge for the tenth place, was Li Yuan.

“Directly challenge the first? Too risky, if I fail it would be too unjust, the hundredth? Too conservative, challenging the tenth place as a safety net, should be more appropriate.” Li Yuan was thinking very clearly.

You have to fight when you need to fight.

Can’t be too conservative.

The hundredth place would be rewarded with ten thousand Divine Crystals, so what about the tenth place? It should also award tens of thousands of Divine Crystals.
