The System Granted Me Invincibility, Setting Me on the Path to Becoming the Heavenly Emperor

69: Entry AssessmentA male Disciple beside Luo Liuli stepped forward, sweeping his gaze over the people below who had come for the examination.

”Welcome, all of you, to Luohua Stream’s examination. I am Ziyang, the Senior Brother of the Yunshui Gorge in Luohua Stream.” Ziyang’s voice was flat, yet it carried clearly for everyone to hear.

Everyone looked at Ziyang with amazement.

”Ziyang, a Genius renowned throughout the entire Tianqi Realm!”

”That’s right. It’s said Ziyang cultivated for just over three hundred years and has already reached the sixth level of the Immortal Venerable Realm. His cultivation is close to that of Fairy Luo. In the entire Tianqi Realm, probably only the successors of the three Supreme forces could surpass him.”

”With Ziyang’s cultivation, his strength ranks among the top three among Luohua Stream’s Disciples.”

”...This Disciple examination is divided into three rounds. Those who pass all three rounds can become Disciples of Luohua Stream. Your performance in this examination will also determine your placement and whether you are worthy of the Sect’s significant investment in your training.”

”The first round is the talent assessment. Now, the examination begins.”

After speaking, Ziyang placed a massive, crystal-clear stone on the Luohua Platform.

”This is a spirit nurturing stone. Place your hand upon it, and it will assess your talent, Bloodline, and Physique.”

”Different talents will cause the spirit nurturing stone to emit different colors. There are seven colors in total: red, orange, white, green, cyan, blue, and purple. Talents below white will be eliminated.”

After Ziyang finished speaking, the examinees all stepped forward one after another.

A young man stepped forward and, with a nervous heart, placed his hand on the spirit nurturing stone.

The spirit nurturing stone immediately emitted an orange light, faintly bordering on breaking through to white.

In the end, it stabilized at orange.

”Examination not passed. Next.” Ziyang said.

The young man who failed the examination left, his face showing disappointment.

Another young woman stepped forward. The spirit nurturing stone emitted a white light.

”Examination passed. You may proceed to the second round.”

The woman revealed a look of pleasant surprise and walked towards the area behind the Luohua Platform, where someone would guide her to the second round of examination.

Qin Gelan stood within the crowd. For this kind of examination, he had no worries at all. He could pass it easily, and the color would undoubtedly be the most stunning.

Suddenly, the spirit nurturing stone emitted a cyan light.

A burly young man revealed an excited expression.

Ziyang nodded with satisfaction. ”Not bad talent. A top-grade Spiritual Root. With some training and your own hard work, you might not be unable to reach the peak in the future. Go to the second round of examination.”

”Thank you, Senior Brother.” The young man said and walked towards the area behind the Luohua Platform.

With this person setting the precedent, the subsequent examinees grew somewhat impatient, eager to see what level their own talent was at.

After round after round of testing, a few more reached the cyan level, and even two with blue-level talent appeared.

These were the type the Sect would focus on cultivating.

Liu Yan, the Crown Prince of the Great Flame Dynasty, stepped forward with a confident expression and placed his hand on the spirit nurturing stone.

Buzz~

The spirit nurturing stone let out a light hum. Red, orange, white, green, cyan, blue... finally, it directly climbed to purple-level talent.

Ziyang looked at Liu Yan and nodded. With Liu Yan’s talent, reaching purple was within expectations.

The crowd behind him all sighed with admiration.

”As expected of Liu Yan. His talent is actually at the purple level. It seems he will be the most outstanding in this entrance examination.”

”Not necessarily. Long Hao from the Transforming Dragon Sect and Ye Chenyu from the Flower Sect are not the slightest bit inferior to Liu Yan.”

”We’ll see.”

As Liu Yan amazed the crowd, Long Hao and Ye Chenyu, not wanting to be outdone, also stepped forward to the spirit nurturing stone one after another.

Red, orange, white, green, cyan, blue, purple... Both of their talents also reached the purple level, making the other examinees envious. If they had such talent, they would receive Luohua Stream’s significant investment in training and wouldn’t have to worry about resources at all.

”This batch of Disciples’ talent is not bad. However, the purple-level talents should only be these three: Liu Yan, Long Hao, and Ye Chenyu.” Ziyang said, addressing Luo Liuli beside him.

Luo Liuli also nodded, glancing at the three.

”Saintess, please go to the second examination site. I will watch over things here.” Ziyang said.

”Then I’ll leave this place to you, Senior Brother.” Luo Liuli said.

Just as Luo Liuli was about to leave, she heard a burst of exclamations coming from below the Luohua Platform.

”Another purple-level talent has appeared!”

”Who is this person? Never seen him before. Could he be a successor from a reclusive clan?”

Luo Liuli and Ziyang looked over simultaneously. Even Liu Yan, Long Hao, and Ye Chenyu looked towards Qin Gelan.

Just moments ago, Ziyang hadn’t noticed Qin Gelan, thinking there would be no more purple-level talents.

Taking a single step, Ziyang arrived instantly beside Qin Gelan and said, ”Test again.”

Qin Gelan nodded and placed his hand on the spirit nurturing stone.

The moment his hand touched it, the entire spirit nurturing stone immediately erupted with a brilliant purple light, even skipping the preceding color steps and directly reaching purple.

This time, Qin Gelan subtly increased his effort a bit, quietly releasing a trace of Vast Righteous Qi.

In an instant, the purple light shot straight into the clouds, illuminating the entire Luohua Platform in purple.

The people below the platform exclaimed in shock one after another. Even Saintess Luo Liuli looked over with a sidelong glance.

”I suspect the purple level isn’t even his limit.”

”I think so too. The spirit nurturing stone’s highest level is only purple.”

”He directly skipped the other colors to reach purple, and even made the purple light shoot into the sky. Purple is just the stone’s limit, not his.”

”To reach such a level is truly as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.”

Liu Yan looked at Qin Gelan, his eyes slightly narrowed. Long Hao’s face was also calm, but his heart was somewhat unsettled. Ye Chenyu looked at Qin Gelan with great interest.

They hadn’t expected a dark horse to appear.

”What is your name?” Ziyang looked at Qin Gelan.

”Qin Gelan.”

Qin Gelan answered calmly. By now, he had probably already attracted the attention of Luohua Stream’s Elders.

He hadn’t come here aiming for a low profile in the first place. Directly revealing his talent to gain Luohua Stream’s attention was the way to get a chance to borrow the cross-realm Teleportation Array.

Ziyang was also stunned.

How absurd!

Back in his day, he had only reached purple, but he hadn’t caused such a commotion.

Could he really be a successor from a reclusive clan?

But which reclusive clan’s successor could reach this level?

Just as Ziyang was thinking this, suddenly the purple light in the clouds began to spread.

”Holy shit!”

The two words directly escaped Ziyang’s lips. Even he couldn’t hold back this time.

”Hiss—”

”This is... Purple Qi from the East!”

”This is Saint-level talent! Who exactly is he? Such talent is absolutely not someone unknown!”

”Look! It’s still extending outward. My heavens, where is his limit?”

The purple light continued to extend outward. Even the clouds in the sky were dyed purple, extending outwards for a full three thousand li.

For a moment, everyone on the Luohua Platform looked at the celestial phenomenon in the sky and fell silent. You could hear a pin drop, but their hearts were shocked beyond measure.

”It can’t be... Purple Qi extending for three thousand li.” Ziyang’s heart trembled.

Legend had it that only the founding Ancestral Master of the Sect had reached such a degree. What kind of Prodigy was this?

Luo Liuli’s heart was also filled with immense shock. Back then, although her purple Qi had also shot into the clouds, it was far from extending for three thousand li. She had only managed six hundred li before reaching her limit.

”Wait, it’s still extending outward...”
