Chapter 911: Chapter 910: Cheating Openly (3rd Update)

Ye Haochuan’s bet with Tu Yang immediately became the focus, and this year’s Inspection Group examination seemed to have gotten more interesting.

The second round, cultivation assessment.

This round is the simplest, without any strain or effort involved, where the chief examiner detects the real cultivation boundary of the participants to prevent any false reporting.

Although according to the regulations, only those above Postnatal Mid-Stage are eligible to apply, there have been exceptions over the years. These individuals, although not sufficiently cultivated, still have the opportunity to register as long as they have a guarantor of a certain status!

Of course, if a participant’s cultivation is insufficient, they must have enough real combat strength!

For instance, a candidate at Postnatal Early Stage, who originally would not qualify, but displays formidable strength in the third round of real combat comparable to Postnatal Peak, would also have a chance of being accepted.

Therefore, the second and third rounds of testing are related.

After detecting the real cultivation in the second round, in the third round, the examiners will compare the cultivator’s own cultivation with their actual combat strength; the higher the ratio between combat strength and cultivation, the higher the score.

Since everyone’s cultivation environment and family resources differ, the Inspection Group does not have high requirements for the cultivators’ own cultivation levels. As a result, the second round doesn’t weigh much, only accounting for twenty percent.

Postnatal Mid-Stage is the passing mark, scoring sixty, Postnatal Late Stage sixty-five... and so on incrementally. To score full marks in this segment, one must be a Foundation Establishment Expert!

There was no suspense in this round, Chen Yushan scored 60, Tu Yang 65, and the highest score was 90, which belonged to several Innate Peak masters!

Clearly, there were no Foundation Establishment Experts participating.

The third round, practical combat test, is the most exciting part of this examination.

There are a total of ten venues for the exam, all proceeding simultaneously, each with an examiner who is a Foundation Establishment Stage Expert, which indicates the strength of the Inspection Group.

These examiners will exchange hands with the candidates one by one, judging their real combat strength.

Since the aim is to assess the candidates’ own fighting abilities, the use of treasures is prohibited during the exam; it’s entirely based on the candidates’ personal skills!

After rules are clearly explained, candidates draw their numbers. Chen Yushan is in venue seven, number eight, while Tu Yang is in venue six, number five—nearby to one another.

Both sides start at the same time, and since all examiners are Foundation Establishment stage experts, there’s no suspense in the fight—it’s just a matter of how long the candidates can last.

The examiners will suppress their cultivation to match that of the examinee and then gradually increase it according to the examinee’s combat power.

”Venue seven, number one, combat power level, Postnatal Mid-Stage!”

When the examiner announces the true combat strength of the candidate, the person on stage immediately roars, ”Impossible! I am clearly at Postnatal Late Stage, how can my combat power be so low!”

The examiner replies coldly: ”There are geniuses and there are mediocrities. Most of you who were cultivated in a greenhouse are superficial.”

This statement is correct; without going through hardships, it is difficult to become a true strong person.

A Postnatal Mid-Stage cultivator who has been through life-and-death battles can easily kill a Postnatal Late Stage cultivator with no real combat experience!

Though resentful, nobody dares to cause trouble in the Inspection Group. After a few roars, the person can only leave the stage reluctantly.

Tu Yang, standing nearby, speaks in a mocking tone: ”Beauty, if I may venture a guess, you’ve probably been protected since childhood with hardly any real combat experience, right?”

He was addressing Chen Yushan, who Tu Yang thinks, given her beauty, must have been dearly sheltered by her family.

Little did he know, before practicing cultivation, Chen Yushan was a police officer who had handled many cases, big and small, and fought against criminals on many occasions. Even after entering cultivation, she had battled with Hellfire.

Chen Yushan did not respond to him, but Ye Haochuan couldn’t help but laugh and say, ”You should worry about yourself. As a young master of the Tu Family, although not from the Direct Lineage, you must have grown up under the protection of others too, right?”

Tu Yang retorts: ”Heh... I’ve been in more fights than you’ve crossed bridges!”

”Is that so?” Ye Haochuan, with arms folded across his chest, lazily says, ”As far as I know, every lineage of the Tu Family, whether direct or collateral, should be mainly focused on the Medical Path, brawling... are you adept at it?”

Tu Yang’s face turned rather sour because what Ye Haochuan said was true; the Tu Family is an up-and-comer among the five major families, lacking the profound heritage of other families and relying on the medical skills of the Medical Immortal Tu Hongshan, so their foothold is also in medicine, with younger generations from both the direct and side branches needing to focus mostly on the Medical Path.

”Let’s just wait and see how strong my combat ability is!” says Tu Yang with a cold expression, sternly dropping the words.

At this moment, the first test in venue six ends, and the examiner’s voice rings out: ”Venue six, number one, combat power, Innate Mid-Stage.”

At the same time, examiners’ voices echo around the area.

”Venue one, number one, combat power, Postnatal Mid-Stage.”

”Venue nine, number two, combat power, Innate Early Stage.”

”Venue four, number one, combat power, Postnatal Peak.”

...

Soon, the first four tests in venue six concluded, and Tu Yang, full of spirit, took the stage confidently.

The real combat begins!

Tu Yang takes the initiative, his Postnatal True Qi surges, and he strikes a blow towards the examiner’s exposed area.

The examiner, with a sideways glance, swiftly dodges and, leaning back at the same time, flicks his toe towards Tu Yang’s chin.

Tu Yang blocks with both hands, warding off the immediate threat, and after widening the distance, he employs a secret technique—a blue energy ball shoots out from his palms.

The audience watches intently, and indeed, Tu Yang is not just for show. As a Postnatal Late Stage cultivator, his displayed combat power is higher than his own cultivation, faintly touching upon the might of Postnatal Peak.

Ye Haochuan began to see Tu Yang in a new light, worthy of being a scion from one of the five major families. Even though his main focus was on the Medical Path, his combat power was not to be underestimated.

As time ticked by, Tu Yang gradually fell into a disadvantage, as the chief examiner was enhancing his own strength.

”This aura... it’s Innate Gang Qi!”

”Could it be that Tu Yang’s combat strength is already approaching Innate?”

”It doesn’t seem like it, from what Tu Yang showed just now, he’s at most at the peak of Postnatal!”

”Who knows! Since the examiner is using Innate Realm cultivation, it means that Tu Yang has the strength!”

...

The crowd buzzed with discussion, while Chen Yushan couldn’t help but grip Ye Haochuan’s hand tightly—Tu Yang’s strength was formidable, putting her under a lot of pressure.

However, Ye Haochuan’s expression gradually became stern, and as he watched the battle between Tu Yang and the examiner in the arena, he thought to himself: ”Hmph! Intentionally going easy? It is indeed the big families that can even bribe the examiners!”
