The Marathon Exam

As they passed through the gate, their cultivation instantly disappeared! It was not that they had been crippled, but that there was a formation covering the entire way, 300km, that prevented any spiritual energy from being used. That being said... the kids would need to depend on their own bodies to reach the end!

Rean couldn't help but comment.

"A marathon and a very harsh one at that."

Roan nodded but didn't say anything.

As the kids' speed dropped after traversing the gate, the elder who talked with everyone smiled.

'Talent is good and all, but talent without effort means nothing! Only those who practiced every day will have built up their bodies to the point where they can conclude this test. As for those who simply sat inside their fancy houses using all the free Spirit Stones and cultivation resources given to them by their families... hehe!'

The elder then looked at the side to ask.

"Are the resting places ready?"

The elder beside him bowed before answering.
