Chapter 150 Journey to the Hill
Chapter 150 Journey to the Hill
After they discussed, the day slowly passed and it was already nighttime. Brian was sleeping on his bed while staring at the ceiling. He could remember those words clearly in his mind.
‘This is the world where weak can’t raise their voice.’
Brian heavily sighed.
‘There is no world where weak can raise their voices. Even before the earth began to enter into the power hierarchy, the poor could never raise their voice against the rich.’
‘The world will always remain divided. There can never be equality. If such a thing ever happens, that would mean the universe has stopped. Even in the universe, big planets pull the small planets around its orbit.’
‘But this world is quite interesting. Each realm has its own merits, its own strength, and weakness, each martial art would have different power, and the stronger I grow, the greater my lifespan gets.’
‘I am truly excited to enter the world of cultivation.’
With a big smile on his face, Brian slowly drifted into a deep sleep.
………..
Five Days Later,
“Alright, don’t forget if Brian doesn’t awaken Divine Rank Martial Soul, bring Ling back instantly. Don’t let her participate in the examination!” Chu Meng stood in front of her husband and properly lectured him before they could leave the house.
It was a fine morning and they were moving a bit early since the journey was quite long.
“Don’t worry, I am not an idiot. You don’t have to remind me every single time.” Chu Yan helplessly sighed as he looked at her.
“Good then!” Chu Meng nodded and looked at Brian and her daughter.
“When you go there, try to stay away from the people wearing neat and better clothes. Don’t come in their way and if you see someone being bullied, don’t step in.”
“You two don’t possess even a little bit of power or status. So, don’t try to act like a hero. Just stay away from the troubles, okay?”
“Don’t worry, we will.” Brian nodded.
“Don’t worry mommy, I totally understand.” Chu Ling spoke with her cute voice making them confused about whether she truly understood or not.
“Just take care of yourself!” Chu Meng sighed and patted both of their heads. Brian felt awkward because he wasn’t a child. He was instead a dad. So, it felt weird being treated like a child.
But now that his body looked like a teenager, he couldn’t do anything about it.
Chu Lan, Brian, and Chu Ling finally left the house. There was a massive hill near the city where the examinations are held. So, they had to reach there before it starts.
The journey through the city only took them half an hour but after that, it took them nearly three hours to reach under the hill. During the road, Chu Ling took a ride on her father’s neck.
She was only ten years old and hadn’t started her cultivation yet. As for Brian, although he felt weak during the first day, he was slowly getting better.
Walking for three hours wasn’t much of a deal for him. After they reach there, they stopped for a short break where they ate the rice balls prepared by Chu Meng.
During their journey, Brian saw different people. Originally, his clothes were quite weird so Chu Meng and Chu Yan bought him some original clothes. Now, he was wearing white pants striped with blue, followed by the same color shirt, and a strange belt.
Most of the people here liked to keep their hair long even if they are males. Though most of those people are usually the high class and extremely handsome. He noticed something strange about this place.
Most of the people who came from high status looked quite handsome, enough to become the top ten handsome men on the earth.
And those who didn’t have such face had quite a muscular and fitting body that women of the earth would lust after. Of course, that wasn’t the end.
The girls weren’t bad. During this journey, he saw some of the most beautiful women that could go toe-to-toe with Lucy or Lena. The only people that looked average in his eyes were some people who didn’t cultivate a certain realm or didn’t come from high status.
After they finished their food, he continued the journey to the top of the hill. It seemed like only people who would participate in the examination are allowed to go.
As for Chu Lan and Chu Ling, they stayed at the bottom. Near the entrance to the top, there was a registration where Brian had to register his name.
After he was given a tag number, he started walking toward the top.
He was silent, not talking to anyone, and walking at the corner where people won’t normally walk. But he was eventually disturbed by a person.
“Hello Brother, is this your third test?”
Brian looked to the side and saw a muscular man. The man seems quite tall and had brown skin. He looked at him with a smile as he asked.
Brian shook his head and said, “It’s my first time.”
“You sure? You don’t seem to have a cultivation base.” The muscular man asked.
Hearing his words, Brian realized something. Even though they were joining the sect, all of them had some level of cultivation. So, it was extremely weird for him to not have one.
“No! I fell unconscious for three years due to a strange disease.” Brian blatantly lied as he shook his head.
“Ohh! Sorry to hear that. Since this is your first time, you must be curious about the tests, right? Hehe! I am not here to brag but I have been here two times. Although I didn’t enter the sect both times, I believe I can enter the sect this time.” The muscular man didn’t even hesitate before he blatantly revealed his lack of talent.
“If you get selected, which sect would you join?” Brian instantly asked without wasting any breath.
“Ehhh! That was quite a question but if I do get a chance, I would definitely enter DragonElephant Sect. My Martial Soul is only Third Stage Earth Rank. So, I am not suitable for the sword which requires an insane talent.” The muscular man was a bit embarrassed this time when he answered.
“Ohhh! Does that mean Heavenly Sword Sword only recruits geniuses?” Brian asked.
“Basically! Most of those swordsmen are not only strong but also very arrogant.” Slowly, his voice got lower as he whispered.
“Brother, it would be best if you don’t get in conflict with the swordsman. They are very cruel as well.”
Brian nodded his head as he kept this suggestion in his mind. Both of them walked toward the top while talking about different topics. Brian learned that this man’s name was Gu Man.
He was quite a hard-working man who was already at the Third Stage of Foundation Establishment Realm despite not having any resources or a good cultivation technique.
Soon, they reached the top of the hill where there was flat land. There were thousands of youngsters gathered around. And, on the stage above the flat ground, there were six people.
Four of them were men and two of them were women. Their attire was completely different. Two men whose body was muscular wore tight black attire and the female also wore the same clothes. The female didn’t look muscular but she had quite a nasty mark on her nose.
They looked more like assassins with some golden designs on the dress. On the other hand, the other three looked quite slim and had handsome appearances as well.
They wore green attire with the golden symbol of a sword on the chest. They were also holding sword sheaths on their waists.
Just from the looks, it wasn’t hard to distinguish them. Although Brian and Gu Man weren’t the last ones to arrive, just after half an hour of their arrival, the man wearing black attire spoke.
“Hello, everyone! My name is Tu Che and the elders next to me are Mu Shen and Cao Ping. We welcome everyone here for the sect examination on behalf of DragonElephant Sect.”
After he introduced himself and his sect, the man wearing green attire came forward and spoke.
“My name is Zhang Min. The elders next to me are Zhou Tu and Xiao Yao. We welcome everyone here for the sect examinations on the behalf of Heavenly Sword Sect.”
After he backed down, Tu Che took the stage and spoke”So, let’s start the test without any time.”
He snapped his finger and a spear appeared in front of him. With the appearance of the spear, everyone was startled. There were all kinds of youngsters here. Some were excited, some were scared and some were just feeling normal.
“This spear was held by one of our past sect masters. He was one of the Saints who had slaughtered thousands of devils with this spear. It contains his Dao of Slaughter and an immense Slaughter Intent.”
“You have to stay up without falling for five minutes in the aura released by this Spear.”
“So, let’s begin!”
