Immortal Supreme: Sovereign of the Grand Dao

Chapter 42 Evaluation And Registration

*****************¶¶*****************

The next day, Arthur and the rest of the newly admitted outer-sect disciples were gathered together and led towards the real location of the Heavenly Sword Sect.

The place where they were before was called the Workers District.

The Workers District was the part of the Heavenly Sword Sect where the servants of the sect who are assigned to matters of Heaven Sword City reside.

They are actually the lowest rank servants in the entire sect.

Arthur and the rest were led by the inner-sect disciple from yesterday and other outer-sect disciples.

Walking deeper into the sect, Arthur and the rest arrived before a mist-filled valley.

On both sides of the valley were two mountains that shot up into the clouds, causing its top to not be seen.

'The essence energy here is thicker. I assume it would be more abundant within,' Arthur sensed with his spirit power.

"This is where the sect really is."

The inner-sect disciple whose name Arthur learned was Liam brought out a jade plate that had runes inscribed on it. He injected his essence energy into the jade plate, making it glow.

And in the next second, the mist separated and formed a narrow path.

"Follow me," Liam instructed, leading Arthur and the rest on the opened path.

Arthur looked around him and did a mental calculation and found out there were a total of two hundred and thirty-five of them that had passed the sect's evaluation so far.

'No, it should be two hundred and thirty-six. That silver-haired girl is not here,' Arthur wondered where she was.

He was sure that she did not fail, but he wasn't sure where she was.

'Maybe she got taken in as a disciple already. Or she had some connections,' He speculated.

While they walked through the mist, the path behind them would close. Arthur wasn't paying attention to all that, he was rather occupied with his thoughts.

'Ever since I came into this sect, I have been having a feeling of urgency. With my Fate Sense, I know that I can not be taking things slow.'

'Since I refused to take the Elder whom Old Man Whitebeard recommended as my master, I can't lay low if I want to ascend the ranks of the sect quickly.'

'That's why during my stay here, I will go by the name Invincible. That should send a lot of prideful idiots my way that would want to debunk the implication of my name.'

'But they would only serve to prove it right!'

"Here we are."

Before knowing it, Arthur and the rest had walked out of the mist-filled valley appearing before paradise looking place, filled with mountain peaks and a lot of buildings built on them.

There was a pathway where the stone was made of glittering stone slabs.

There were magnificent buildings on each side, with a lot of disciples moving to fro and looking at them curiously.

Liam led them to a building that had the title, 'Registration Center' in front of it.

Walking inside the building, they appeared in a hall, where a young man sat behind a counter. He had a bored-like look in his eyes and spoke lazily.

"So...these are the new swordlings?" Said the man.

Liam smiled and replied, "Yes, Thomas. And I see you are still lazy as always."

"I am not lazy, it's just everyone else who takes things too seriously."

"I see. So anyway, do what you have to do, I will go set things up for the Sword Tower," Liam said and turned to leave.

Thomas gave a signal to the other outer-sect disciples on duty and arranged for Arthur and the rest to stand in a queue.

After that Thomas brought out a box-shaped device with a palm-shaped rune on top.

This was a testing device that revealed a person's age. It was an Artifact that was precise and accurate. It was not a high leveled one, but it was rare.

"Alright, so you step forward, state your name, and place your hand on this box."

Thomas directed them and brought out reading glasses from his pocket and began to look and them.

Some thought the spectacles were the normal ones but changed their mind when they saw glow a bit, with Thomas muttering cultivation levels of some of them randomly.

'Hmm, it's working properly. Phew...I thought I broke it back then in that mission,' Thomas let out a sigh of relief.

"You come forward," Thomas gestured at the person in front with his head.

"Name?" He asked.

"Sharon Fletcher!" The girl said nervously.

"Place your hand here, please."

She nodded and did as she was told. As she placed her hand on the inscribed palm-shaped rune on the box, it began to glow and soon a number appeared in the air above her palm.

[17.11]

Thomas nodded at that, and wrote on a book on the counter while saying, "Name: Sharon Fletcher, Age; 17 years, and 11 months old, Cultivation Level; Ninth Rank Spirit Condensation Realm."

"Moved to the other side," Thomas instructed and shouted, "Next!"

"Name: Wilson Akim, Age; 18 years old, Cultivation Level; Peak Spirit Condensation Realm."

"Name: John Blitz, Age; 17 years and 6 months old, Cultivation Level; Seventh Rank Spirit Condensation Realm."

"Name...

Just like that, the evaluation continued until it reached the turn of someone Arthur knew.

"Name?" Thomas asked.

"Zaith Asura."

"Place your hand on the box."

"Hmm, so young?" Thomas muttered as he sensed Zaith's cultivation level which was high for his age.

"Name: Zaith Asura, Age; 16 years and 1 month old, Cultivation Level; Third Rank, Gold Core Realm!"

Zaith nodded and walked to the other side.

"What, he already broke through to the Gold Core Realm?"

"A true genius amongst us, and he is only sixteen."

"Yeah, the sect will probably be paying attention to him from the beginning, and with his talent, he wouldn't take too long to become an inner disciple of the sect."

Discussions arose between those behind Zaith, upon hearing his cultivation level.

Generally, most would reach the Gold Core Realm at the age of twenty and above, and this is assuming they started cultivating at the age of twenty and above.

And most of them here were seventeen and eighteen years old, so Zaith's age and cultivation stood out a lot.

"Next!"
