Chapter 402-Second round

The second test evaluated the participants' comprehension and understanding.

The remaining 1,000 students were gathered before a massive rock. Here, someone would demonstrate a technique, allowing the geniuses to comprehend its essence.

Those who failed to grasp it within 3 hours would be eliminated.

As the test proceeded, Dave and the emperor engaged in a constant conversation that seemed to bring them closer.

Dave came to realize that the emperor was a good-hearted man who preferred a down-to-earth approach and disliked unnecessary formalities.

In their discussions, Dave sensed the emperor's curiosity about his relationship with Wendy.

Dave openly admitted to being Wendy's boyfriend, a revelation that brought a smile to Warren's face.

However, Wendy couldn't hide her anger and often retorted, prompting her father to scold her for interrupting their conversation.

Dave would occasionally praise Warren's daughter, describing her as "very good" and "soft"-hearted," which only fueled Wendy's embarrassment.

Dave seemed oblivious to her inner thoughts and plans to resist attacking him.

Dave went on to gift Warren some pills he had crafted, stating that since they were going to be family, he wanted to contribute.

Wendy was growing increasingly tempted to lash out, but she restrained herself, as she had more significant plans for dealing with Dave later.

Warren was pleased with the pills and sensed their quality.

Others around them watched with envy, secretly wondering if such a brilliant and beautiful genius existed within their own clan.

"Dave, why don't you be the one to imbue techniques into the rock? We can allow the geniuses to comprehend your techniques,"

Warren suggested, considering Dave a strong candidate due to his heavenly genius status, assuming his techniques would be exceptional.

Dave didn't anticipate the emperor's proposal, but he didn't mind.

He saw it as an opportunity to gauge if any of the participants could truly comprehend his techniques.

He smiled and nodded in agreement.

"Sure, why not? The younger ones can learn from us,"

Dave responded, causing Wendy to look at him disdainfully.

Those who overheard him, including the princess and prince, were stunned, as they had perceived Dave to be more in line with their age group, not someone older and experienced.

....

The announcer surveyed the crowd, then received a directive from the emperor, prompting him to declare, "For today's round, our special guest, Young Master Dave, will be demonstrating his technique on the rock, as suggested by the emperor."

"So, please give it your best, as this is a rare opportunity," he continued.

With that announcement, a wave of excitement swept through the audience.

No one had anticipated that Dave would personally showcase his techniques on the rock.

The revelation thrilled not only the women but also some men who had admired Dave from a distance and were now excited to see him in person.

Jiang Chen recognized Dave's strength and viewed this as a chance to learn from him.

Venice, too, regarded Dave with a complex mix of emotions.

Although she held a favorable impression of him due to his distinct fragrance, their paths hadn't crossed again after the birthday of the matriarch.

Dave hovered before the assembled crowd, his aura exuding an elegance that garnered admiration from onlookers.

Smiling, he addressed the audience, saying, "Since the emperor has requested this round, I hope you young people won't disappoint me."

"I'll be showcasing two techniques for you. The first is a fist technique, suitable for those who don't use a sword. However, I'll present a simplified version only, as the full technique isn't compatible with your body and bloodline."

"The second technique is a sword technique, similarly simplified, yet potent enough to defeat your opponents."

Dave's words piqued everyone's curiosity, with even the emperor watching intently.

Dave directed his attention to the rock and inquired, "Can you provide a tougher challenge?"

The announcer was taken aback and asked, "Why, Young Master? This is an Obsidian Rock, an exceedingly rare and one of the hardest rocks within the entire domain."

Dave shook his head and explained, "It would crumble easily under my technique, unable to withstand it."

With a controlled motion, he struck the rock with a slow punch, not unleashing his full power.

Boom!

The rock shattered, astonishing everyone.

They felt as though Dave had employed only a regular punch, yet the result was staggering.

The geniuses were struck with the terror of witnessing his normal punch, further elevating Dave's prestige to a whole new level.

"What?"

Even the True Saints were left astounded by Dave's punch.

"How? That rock could even withstand a True Saint's attack," someone exclaimed in disbelief.

Dave shook his head before producing two 10-meter-long blue rocks before the audience.

Many were unfamiliar with this type of rock, yet it held an allure, seemingly suitable for crafting jewelry.

With a grin, Dave said, "Come on, let's rack up more sin points."

Clearing his throat, he continued, "This rock is called Abyssal Rock. It's a thousand times harder than the rock I shattered earlier."

The unexpected display of such a precious item left everyone stunned.

However, no one dared to question where Dave had obtained them from, knowing that such an inquiry could prove fatal.

In reality, Dave had procured these rocks from Kasuya's treasury, which Reyver had given him as a reward.

Given his vast collection, Dave was unfazed by parting with just two of them, using the opportunity to flaunt and earn sin points.

"Pay attention now. The technique I'm about to demonstrate is called the Tyrant Overlord Fist. It's remarkably potent, but keep in mind that this simplified version merely triples the power of your regular punch and requires substantial mana," Dave explained.

His words drew gasps of surprise. No one had anticipated the existence of such a mysterious skill, and the prospect of tripling their punching strength was seen as an incredible feat.

Even the True Saints contemplated comprehending it after the event concluded.

Dave initiated a deliberate, slow punch, his fist enveloped in a golden aura.

Boom!

With great care, he struck the rock, avoiding its destruction by controlling his power.

"Wow, that's powerful," the emperor murmured, his gaze narrowing in response to Dave's formidable display.

The Tyrant Overlord Fist's might, even in its simplified form, exceeded expectations.

"He's a monster," Wendy reluctantly admitted, acknowledging that Dave's strength surpassed that of any genius she had encountered before.

Karina, on the other hand, beamed at Dave with a knowing smile.

She was aware of his true strength, understanding that he had yet to unleash his full potential.
