I See the Aura of the Great Emperor in All My Disciples

Chapter 2053: Chapter 2053: No More Holding Back, Let’s Go!

The crowd quietly gathered in the plaza in front of the Deacon Hall.

The news spread quickly — Deputy Hall Master Yang Shao personally recruited five outsiders into the Supervisory Temple, without needing to go through the usual examination.

This was truly rare in the regimented Supervisory Temple.

”I heard these people are from other realms?”

”Other Great Realms... they must be from the lower realm, what merits do they have to enter the inner court directly?”

”Maybe Brother Yang allowed them in because of personal connections, using the back door...”

The examination for recruiting disciples in the Supervisory Temple is extremely strict, held once every fifty years, and each time only a few people pass the examination, sometimes not even one.

It’s important to know that each time the Supervisory Temple recruits disciples, hundreds of thousands of cultivators are drawn to participate, and some even come from higher-level Great Realms. Unable to join the Supervisory Temple in their realm, they come to join the one in the lower realm.

There is no other reason.

The entity behind the Supervisory Temple is the Holy Court.

This force controls the entire World Tree.

Though the discussions were quiet, they clearly reached the ears of Netherworld King and his group.

Yang Shao, however, still had a smile on his face, without the slightest panic, easily looking at Mu Fusheng and others with a smile, ”With your talent and strength, you won’t make me lose face, right?”

Netherworld King nodded and said, ”You can rest assured with us, but about Mu Jiu...”

Hmm?????

Yang Shao tilted his head, full of confusion.

What does that mean?

Just as Yang Shao was about to inquire,

An old man with gray hair and a serious face walked out of the hall.

The elder was wearing a dark golden Elder Robe, with three silver stars embroidered on his chest, his gaze sharp as it swept over the crowd with a pressure of authority.

It was the Third Elder!

”Silence.”

Just two words, and the plaza was immediately silent.

”Today, I am responsible for verifying the strength of the specially recruited disciples,” the Third Elder’s gaze fell on Netherworld King and the others, ”The rules of the Supervisory Temple cannot be abolished, even if introduced by the Deputy Hall Master, you must still demonstrate your corresponding aptitude. Do you understand?”

Netherworld King stepped forward, cupped his hands and said, ”Junior understands.”

The Third Elder nodded slightly and pointed to the high platform in the center of the plaza, ”That is the Heavenly Observation Stone, forged by the ancestors of the temple using Outer Heaven Meteorite Iron and the core of the Fuyao Realm’s earth veins. It can measure the purity of a cultivator’s spiritual qi, the depth of their foundation, and... the potential of their Dao techniques.”

The Heavenly Observation Stone stands about three feet high, entirely black like ink, yet its surface shimmers with a faint starlight sheen.

The surface of the stone is covered with natural patterns, and upon closer inspection, countless minuscule runes operate autonomously.

”Inject your spiritual qi, and the Heavenly Observation Stone will display different phenomena based on cultivation realm, spiritual qi quality, and Dao technique characteristics,” the Third Elder said lightly, ”Ordinary inner court disciples can make the stone body glow white. Talented individuals can make it shine with silver light. If one can reach the inspector standard... then golden light will illuminate the world.”

He paused, looking at the five people, ”Since you came recommended by Yang Shao, I suppose you have exceptional talents. Who will go first?”

Netherworld King looked at the Heavenly Observation Stone and smiled helplessly.

”It’s been a long time since I’ve gone through this kind of talent-checking method...”

Hong Ying looked at Netherworld King and said, ”I’ve never experienced it.”

Netherworld King’s face stiffened.

”I haven’t either,” Xu Yeming shrugged.

Mu Fusheng and Jiu Bailu also smiled and said, ”It seems only Senior Brother has had this experience, it’s quite novel for us.”

Netherworld King’s eye twitched, ”Then you all go and experience it first!”

Xu Yeming grinned, ”I’ll go first.”

Under the observation of the Supervisory Temple disciples and those sensing around.

Xu Yeming walked up to the Heavenly Observation Stone, took a deep breath, and pressed both palms flat against the stone surface.

In an instant, spiritual qi surged from his body!

The Heavenly Observation Stone trembled slightly, its patterns lighting up, first emitting a pure white light, then strands of silver light permeated the white. The silver light grew stronger, eventually covering two-thirds of the stone, the light stable and solid.

”Eighty percent silver light, solid foundation, pure spiritual qi,” the Third Elder’s eyes flashed with brilliance, nodding slightly, ”Eligible for inner court high rank.”

After Xu Yeming withdrew his hands and retreated, he blinked at Netherworld King and others — he hadn’t used the aura of the Great Wilderness Beast Heart, nor did he unleash the special fluctuation of his Blood Clan bloodline.

Others were momentarily stunned.

Inner court high rank?

This person from the lower realm possesses such strong strength?

It’s important to know that those who can achieve inner court high rank even before joining the Supervisory Temple are no more than a handful in the entire temple!

”How was it?”

Xu Yeming smiled as he returned to the crowd.

Yang Shao gave Xu Yeming a thumbs up, ”Didn’t disgrace me!”

Mu Fusheng furtively transmitted, ”Junior Brother Xu, can you suppress it even more? This is still too high profile.”

Xu Yeming was about to say something.

When he saw Hong Ying leap up to the Heavenly Observation Stone and transmit to Mu Fusheng and others.

”Why suppress more? Anyway, they don’t know our circumstances, showing more strength to elevate our status might benefit information gathering.”

Mu Fusheng covered his face.

Perfect!

Just saw Hong Ying lightly press her jade hand against the stone surface.

Buzz—

The Heavenly Observation Stone shook violently!

White light instantly surged, silver light erupted almost simultaneously, covering eighty percent of the stone!

”Eighty percent?!”

”Top tier of the inner court, right?”

”No, the silver light is still rising!”

The Third Elder’s pupils slowly contracted.

Under the astonished gazes of the crowd.

The silver light gradually transformed into golden color, covering the entire stone!

Boom!!!

In an instant, the golden light actually enveloped the entire Supervisory Temple!

Everyone in the Supervisory Temple looked up towards the direction of the Heavenly Observation Stone, with looks of shock.

”Full tenfold golden light...” The Third Elder’s eyes flickered with surprise, ”The spiritual qi contains a trace of imperial aura, such a deep foundation is truly rare.”

Below was also filled with exclamations.

”Full tenfold golden light?! This surpasses Brother Yang and Brother Qin, doesn’t it?!”

”I fear only that mysterious being can compare with this, right?”

”My god! How could such a person appear in the lower realm?”

”Could it be from the Upper World?”

Hong Ying calmly withdrew her hand, and returned to her original position.

Soon after, before they could react.

Jiu Bailu stepped forward to touch the Heavenly Observation Stone.

Silver light covered eighty percent of the stone!

Even more surprising, within the silver light, there was faintly a touch of pale gold, though fleeting, it was keenly captured by the Third Elder.

”Eighty percent silver light, touching the gold threshold...” the Third Elder’s expression changed.

He glanced deeply at Jiu Bailu, didn’t question further, just noted the anomaly.

Jiu Bailu calmly withdrew his hand.

Jiu Bailu hadn’t used the power of cause and effect, once used, he might have reached the golden light level.

The people below were dazed as they watched this scene.

The five they looked down on not long ago.

Merely three of them stepping up had already reached such levels.

And the remaining two...
