Chapter 619 Head Hunter Test.

Chapter 619 Head Hunter Test.

After leaving the restaurant, Shi Lang went to the Head Hunting organization. His clone told him this was a good place because he was trying to merge his cultivation streams. The terran was cultivating the way of slaughter in the lower realm, but in the upper realm, he was practicing the way of sword and lightning.

If he could merge these two ways in his skills, he would be advancing farther on the path of cultivation. Dwelling over his thoughts, the terran arrived at his destination. He found the building to resemble an iron fort. It was painted black on the outside, and the walls did not allow him to look inside.

He did not risk using his spiritual sense. What if he pissed off some expert, it would not be long before an emperor-level expert might kill him. He was not in the peak realms just yet. At most, he was a middle-grade Immortal Lord. Why allow his curiosity to be the reason for his untimely death?

He walked up to the entrance gates of the building when a guard stopped him. He asked in a stern fashion, "Who are you? What do you need?"

It was quite late at night, so he was much more vigilant than usual. Shi Lang cupped his hand and said, "Brother, I have come to apply for the Head-hunter test."

The guard was surprised and then took out a stone from the back pocket, saying, "Channel your spiritual energy in the stone, and we will see if you are eligible to apply."

Shi Lang nodded and cooperated with the test. He placed his hand on the stone and channeled his spiritual energy. The stone began to shimmer, and then the glow became stronger. The pale blue glow was so strong that the guard had to turn his head to the side.

The guard retracted his hand and the stone and said, "I did not expect you to be so young and strong. Go in. I hope you do well."

Shi Lang was surprised, but then he found that the guard of this building was a peak Immortal Lord. He could not help but wonder what sort of person was conducting the test. He came through the door and entered the building through the main gate at the end of the walkway.

The terran entered the building and found it to have a similar setting as a pub, but it was scarce of massive crowds. Only a few people were present, drinking their brains out on the tables. Shi Lang spotted a counter, which seemed to be the reception area, and walked over.

His arrival caught some attention, but people instantly returned to their booze. He was just another guy to them. The lady behind the counter spotted him and asked, "Are you here to apply for the test?"

Shi Lang nodded, and the lady said, "You have arrived at a reasonable time. Here, please fill out all your details and strength level."

Shi Lang took the parchment and ink brush in his hand before filling in all the details as he could on this sheet. He turned the paper in, and the lady gave him a token. You can rest here for the night or come back in the morning. I suggest that you arrive before the sun rises."

Shi Lang thought about it and said, "I will be back in the morning."

The lady nodded indifferently. It was not her job to care about his test or well-being. The terran left the place and quickly came back to the inn. The terran had to feed the horse and the cat, too. He could not just go about things with these two guys. He said, "Xiao Hei, shall I send you to a peaceful place to cultivate? There is a great concentration of spiritual energy, and it is safe, too. Look at Lei Hu. He broke through the Immortal King-level spirit beast in just a few months."

The terran was dealing with the horse while the cat was gazing at the former with disdain brimming through her eyes.

Shi Lang did not mind. He needed to send the horse back to the inheritance palace for some freedom. After a couple of hours, the horse agreed and left the place. The black cat gazed at Shi Lang and then spat on the side.

...

The next morning, Shi Lang approached the Head Hunter Building and found many people queueing up. He also joined the clue. The fellow ahead of Shi Lang seemed to be easygoing. The terran asked, "Brother, do you know why they have such big queues?"

The young man turned around and smiled when he saw Shi Lang. He asked, "First time?"

Shi Lang nodded, and the young man said, "The queue is to divide the people."

Shi Lang was still confused, so the young man said, "Everyone who applied for the test will be given a task randomly. You must complete these tasks to be acknowledged as a Head Hunter."

As he wanted to ask what tasks, the person said, "You will know; do not spoil the fun this way. I will tell you many people do not manage to come back, so all the best."

Shi Lang nodded, and gradually, it was his turn before the counter. A young man with cold eyebrows had replaced the lady from the night. The cold young man looked at the side and said, "Pick a color."

Shi Lang was confused, but then he spotted a few colored barrels. He asked, "What do the colors signify?"

The young man replied monotonously, "Red is the most difficult, black is moderate, while yellow is the easiest of tasks."

Shi Lang thought about it and said, "Black."

The young man fished out a scroll at random recorded the number on the side of the scroll, and passed it to Shi Lang. Then he said, "If you decide to forfeit the task, you will be disqualified and never allowed to take part in the examination again."

Shi Lang nodded and like the others before him, he walked to the side to look at the content of the black scroll.
