38 Opening of the Trial Grounds (3)

The crowd quickly moved as the testing started. The Immortal King on the left side took out two black stones and put them on a table. The test is quite simple, the participants only need to drip a drop of blood on the first stone and put a wisp of qi on the second.

Everyone that has the qualifications can enter regardless of identity. This was a rule established by the forefathers of the Origin Elemental Realm that's why the testers are rather lax and don't even require an identity tablet.

"25, Five-star Foundation Establishment," the Immortal King cultivator announced the results.

"27, Five-star Foundation Establishment."

"23, Five-star Foundation Establishment."

. . .

"19, Seven-star Foundation Establishment."

The announcement created a commotion burst through the crowd.

"Who's that? He's as strong as the Yan clan's eldest young master!"

"He should definitely be in the realm's Junior Powerhouse list."

"He might also be a genius from another realm."

The other youths were alarmed. The geniuses from the ancient clans were on the later part of the line. Where did this geniuses come from? They craned their necks and saw several youths in black cloak. As for their faces, they saw nothing at all.

"18, Six-star Foundation Establishment."

"20, Seven-star Foundation Establishment."

"19, Six-star Foundation Establishment."

The last one is even more outrageous.

"19. . . Half-a-step to Immortal Stage."

Cries of shock reverberated to the crowd. It's not unusual to have someone at half-a-step to immortal stage participating in the Sacred Palace Trial grounds but this one is too young and seems to not be from the ancient clans.

After waiting in the line for quite some time, finally its the Yan clan's turn

"18, Half-a-step to Immortal Stage."

Some people were shocked but actually, it's not really surprising that the Eldest Young Master of the Yan clan has advanced in such a short time. The reason for this was the Spirit fruit won by Ryan in the auction last night. However, they are bound for a big surprise shortly.

"18, Six-star Foundation Establishment."

"16, Seven-star Foundation Establishment."

"16, Four-star Foundation Establishment."

"15, Six-star Foundation Establishment."

"15, Four-star Foundation Establishment."

"14, Five-star Foundation Establishment."

"14, Three-star Foundation Establishment."

"12, One-star Foundation Establishment."

After the nine, finally, it was Rinley's turn. The Immortal King gazed at Rinley up and down and was puzzled. [What is this kid doing here?] After looking at the result of Rinley's age test, the Immortal King was even more puzzled.

It's true that anyone under 30-years-old that have not yet reached Immortal Stage is free to enter, but what cultivation level can an eight-year-old have? He really wanted to advice Rinley to go home. But looking at the nine young masters of the Yan Clan that seems to be waiting for the kid at the side, the Immortal King swallowed his words.

In a few seconds, Rinley was on the second stone. Seeing the result the Immortal King gaped in shock, he forgot to announce the result.

"Excuse me, can you announce my results?" Rinley reminded seemingly calm, but in her mind, she is doing a victory dance. 〜(￣▽￣〜) (〜￣▽￣)〜

"E-eight years old. . . Half-a-step to Immortal Stage."

". . ."

There was a three-second silence before the crowd erupted in a bigger commotion.

[You see, this one here is the real genius! ╮(╯▽╰)╭]
