Dong Qitian was incredibly puzzled.

These young men were prodigious. How blind must these Celestial Luck Banner sects be to take such budding masters as their whetstones and force them to join the opposition?

There must be a reason behind this.

Dong Qitian’s doubts were not baseless. Even if there were one of two sects that were blind, it was impossible for all the schools that possessed the Celestial Luck Banner to be similarly unperceptive and unappreciative of these raw jades. Moreover, all the Demiurge-Flawed Ten shared similar fates - there must be more to it than met the eye!

When noon came around, Shi Wuchen proudly became the second person to surrender to unconsciousness.

The day had gone dark as Dong Qitian waited and it finally saw Shi Bujia’s silent fall. He had held out the longest among the elder trio and sustained the severest injuries as well, blood seeping out of his scalp. If Dong Qitian had not saved him in time, his life would be at risk with any further delay that took place…

‘This fellow is a tough one too - truly harsh upon himself!’ Dong Qitian commented in a low mumble, ‘One can only be more cruel to the enemy when he’s cruel to himself. These three are all savages!’

The trio’s injuries were carefully treated by Dong Qitian before he recovered their six senses, but they still had their dantian and mystical Qi sealed to prevent them from having the opportunity to automatically cultivate and heal themselves.

They were put aside and left in a deep slumber, their recoveries reliant upon their own body’s most primal instincts.

When all three of them woke up, they were told to eat something and sit quietly at the side, disallowed to make any noise nor move; they were not allowed to cultivate either. Then, Dong Qitian shifted all his attention to Yun Yang.

He remembered that his master had said that he himself had persevered for seven days in this stage. This phase did not look like it was the hardest, but when it was carried out, especially when one was in it, it felt like being in hell training for a century in less than three days.

According to what Dong Qitian knew, his master had the longest period of endurance among the past generations in their sect and his master’s achievement was the highest among all as well!

Yun Yang had plowed on for close to seven days now.

Not long ago, Shi Wuchen and friends had slowly regained their clarity. Upon reacquainting themselves with their own state, all of them quietly looked towards Yun Yang, who was still plodding away, shock flooding over them.

It was because they had gone through the exact same training that they knew how horrible and inhumane the situation was. Each minute and each second felt like the most agonizing torture.

Yun Yang had started with them, yet he was still hammering away - he could still go on!

The trio felt an additional sense of reverence for him, especially Shi Bujia and Kong Luoyue, who were completely floored. They did not need more; this test alone was enough for them to call him ‘boss’ wholeheartedly.

Seven days passed.

Dong Qitian’s eyes were glowing as he watched Yun Yang who was still holding out, but he dared not let his guard down.

The person undergoing such a drill was not supported by his mystical Qi or divine senses. Everything he went through was endured by his physical body. It was unavoidable that a substantial amount of damage would be incurred. In the past, seven days was the limit of this method. Yun Yang had reached the maximum now, so while Dong Qitian commended Yun Yang, he was wary that a momentous lapse in his virgil could cause Yun Yang’s instant death - that would be one unjustified death indeed!

When the eighth day came, Ren Qingkuang and Lan Ruojun returned respectively with company. Lan Ruojun came back with two people while Ren Qingkuang came back with one. Including Shi Wuchen and friends, there was a total of eight people who were gathered here at Yun Yang’s yard, seated on the peak. All of them observed the activity without making a sound and as they continued watching, their gazes were filled with astonishment.

It was a tour of hell!

Lan Ruojun and group looked at Yun Yang who was going through hell and the trio of Shi Wuchen who had just gone through it in shock, amazement, and surprise running through them.

“You’ve seen it now. Join in.”

Dong Qitian was not in the mood to say much. Preparing the five people, he started their training right away alongside Yun Yang. When Lan Ruojun and friends joined in, Dong Qitian released the seal he had on the other three men so they could cultivate with full concentration and improve their cultivation base.

By the time the trio awakened from their deep cultivation state in the afternoon of the ninth day, they were all bewildered. There was as much as half a class of impro rest in their mystical Qi cultivation base as they cultivated this time. This was half a class of Saint level cultivation base being mentioned here!

However, this was still a secondary concern. What truly mattered to them was the enlightenment after their cultivation efforts. It was unprecedentedly profound. Their meridian endurance and divine sense vicinity, too, had an amazing elevation almost as if they had gone through a reincarnation.

“This is… another form of reincarnation,” Dong Qitian explained faintly as he looked at the people who were still in training hell.

The trio knew that it was not time to ask further, their attention focused on Yun Yang. They could not help but think how many days more Yun Yang, who was still grinding away, could carry on.

In fact, this was a burning question for everyone.

Lan Ruojun and the others had persisted for six days and more, never quite reaching the seventh day, before they surrendered one after another, becoming quite an audience after their recovery.

It was due to this fact that the eight friends were further impressed and amazed by Yun Yang who was still pushing on. Adding the days that had passed, he had kept at it for half a month now!

‘Why is he the boss? This is his qualification! Not convinced? You try it and see!’

This was a thought that rose instinctively within Shi Wuchen and friends. Those who had come later who initially still felt unconvinced had all given in now, without a second thought.

This was his capability! Solid, unpretentious, capability! No one could doubt it.

The persistence stood firm until the eighteenth day…

Yun Yang collapsed without a sound or a foretelling warning.

Dong Qitian sprinted to him like a dash of lightning, shaking with bloodshot eyes. He pushed a medicinal pill into Yun Yang’s mouth immediately and unlocked his six senses’ restriction, making sure that there was still a pulse beating in Yun Yang.

Looking at the young man who was deeply unconscious, Dong Qitian’s eyes shone like he had found a rare treasure.

“This boss of yours, I can predict that…” Dong Qitian’s voice was trembling as he uttered word by word, “He’ll definitely weave a new page in the Bound of Universe’s history!”

There was unwavering affirmation in Dong Qitian’s tone. He should not have given such high accolades, he should even be commenting about it distantly lest Yun Yang and his following grew arrogant, but he simply could not hold it in.
