THE CULTIVATION OF BESIDE DEVIL CULTIVATOR
268: Final Test
Manlong's actions shocked Jiang Hao.
It was strange that he gave up at the last moment. The benefits of a top disciple far exceeded that of a True Disciple.
Otherwise, Bai Ye would not have spent so much time and effort to become one of the ten disciples. Even so, Manlong was being lenient to her.
Jiang Hao barely noticed it.
Bai Ye's spell was elusive, so it was hard to tell whether it was genuine or fake. He did not know if any master of the twelve branches would witness the fight.
If they felt it, would they intervene? 'I miscalculated.' Jiang Hao sighed.
"He won?! ”
The audience did not believe.
"I think so."
“Do you see how he managed to win?
“I don't understand.. Senior Brother Manlong kept getting hurt, and then..”.
“Senior Brother Bai Ye can't get close to him. If he gets close, it will all be over for him. So, they keep trying to hurt each other. In the end, it becomes a test of who can last longer.”
“Does this mean Bai Ye will be one of the top ten disciples?”
“Not yet... there is still one last round.”
Jiang Hao looked into the distance.
Now that Bai Ye had defeated Manlong, there was only one final test left. If he passed through it, he would become one of the ten best disciples.
The test was not as difficult as beating Manlong. He'll probably get through it.
“Young Brother Jiang, do you think Bai Ye will become the tenth best student?” ask Liu Xingchen.
“It looks like so.”
Although he was unwilling to accept it, it was clear that Bai Ye had won.
However, Jiang Hao still had hope. If he could advance to the late stages of the Primordial Spirit Realm, he could still plan his revenge. It will only take longer than he expected.
“I want to know which best student came to test it,” Liu Xingchen said.
At this moment, a figure of a body descended from the sky.
It was a woman in a purple dress. She's tall and pretty. Her hair was tied up into a bun.
He landed in front of Bai Ye. “Happy to have defeated Manlong, Young Brother Bai Ye. Now, let me verify your qualifications. I will suppress my cultivation to the late stages of the Primordial Spirit Realm. I'll just use one move. If you remain standing straight even after that, you have passed the exam. ”
“It was the sixth top disciple, Senior Brother Wei Si, of the Heavenly Joy Pavilion!” liu Xingchen said. “Typically, the person testing the prospective student will be ranked first to fifth.”
“So, will it be easier to pass?” Jiang Hao asked.
“It's hard to say. For Bai Ye, in the late stages of the Primordial Spirit Realm, there was no difference between the fifth and sixth disciples. They are just as tough against him,” Liu Xingchen said.
Jiang Hao was not too optimistic about the outcome. If it was just one move, Bai Ye might be able to block it.
“Can we start?” wei Si asked while suppressing his cultivation. Bai Ye took a deep breath and gathered all her strength. “Yes, Senior Sister.”
Wei Si looked at Bai Ye. His spiritual energy began to surge around him.
In an instant, he moved.
The spiritual energy around him flowed. It was as if everything around him was under his control.
Everyone is confused. Wei Si seemed to have moved away from his position, but it did not seem like he was doing so at the same time.
He was already in front of Bai Ye.
Bai Ye was caught off guard. There is no time to react. Wei Si placed his hand on Bai Ye's chest.
With a thud, he fell to the ground. His blood spread to the ground.
Wei Si waited for Bai Ye to wake up, but she could not.
“Bai Ye, you failed the test,” he said.
The crowd became an uproar. Jiang Hao could not believe it. He was still shocked by his palm strike. He calmly placed his palm on Bai Ye's chest, but all the spiritual energy around him seemed to be responding to it.
Jiang Hao felt that even he was unable to withstand such an attack. Wei Si had even suppressed his cultivation. He could not imagine how powerful he was at his peak.
Jiang Hao took a deep breath to calm himself down. He doesn't need to rush. He can be stronger than this.
However, Bai Ye's failure made her seem unreal. He was defeated at the last moment.
Bai Ye still had a curse to deal with. Overall, Jiang Hao felt the results were good.
He can go ahead and deal with it in a few months. Of course he couldn't kill her. However, he would think of something.
“He failed just like that?”
“Senior brother Bai Ye failed.. Does that mean Manlong is still the tenth top student?”
“Isn't that unfair? Senior Brother Bai Ye has already won this challenge. How could he face a sixth top disciple with his full strength?
"That's fair. Bai Ye had already gained the advantage as the host. This is his last test. ”
“Challenge has the advantage as host. Isn't that unfair to Senior Brother Manlong?”
“How is this unfair? Senior Brother Manlong has been the tenth best disciple for many years. He has gathered so many resources. That looks unfair to me..”.
Jiang Hao felt that it sounded reasonable. The best students have so many privileges. If a challenger could not defeat his challenger despite having the advantage as the host, then they did not deserve to be the best disciple.
Manlong was more than qualified to be the tenth top disciple, but why was he being lenient towards Bai Ye?
Maybe Bai Ye had given him an offer that he could not refuse.
Wei Si did not leave after that. Instead, he turned to look at Manlong.
“Bai Ye failed to become one of the top ten disciples. However, Manlong was defeated by him. It was a shame for the top ten disciples. Manlong, your title will be revoked and banned from competing for the tenth best student title for ten years.”
"Ten years?!" Manlong struggled to wake up. "Why?"
The explosion!
An invisible hand descended from the sky and slapped Manlong to the ground. Bones crack. Manlong grimaced in pain.
“If ten years is a problem for you, let's make it fifteen years,” Wei Si said calmly.
Manlong did not dare to question him. Wei Si saw everyone gathered.
“The challenge to occupy the tenth best student seat will begin in three years. Until that time arrives, the resources in tenth place will be evenly distributed among the other nine places. If no one is selected for the seat in the next three years, then resources will be distributed to the strongest disciples in every category of nature. There would be four Foundation Establishment Level cultivators, four from the Golden Core Realm and four from the Primordial Spirit Realm. We will do this in turns until we finally find the tenth best student.”
He then flew into the sky and disappeared.
Jiang Hao was a little surprised. The sixth disciple seemed to have high authority.
Moreover, if the tenth top disciple was not chosen, the other nine disciples would obtain a lot of additional resources. It was extremely difficult to reach tenth position because they seemed unwilling to include more people.
Ye Yaqing once said that it was difficult for Bai Ye to succeed. It seems to be true.
Even Manlong had been forbidden from competing for the title of tenth best disciple for fifteen years!
As for ordinary disciples, they had the chance to obtain resources from the tenth top disciple after three years. They should be the strongest in their own cultivation field.
Jiang Hao felt he had a chance, but it was too flashy. He doesn't want to be noticed. He wanted to find out what resources were available before he decided to participate.
He's got three years. No need to rush.
Right now, he needed to focus on advancing to the final stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm..
