Zayn was arrogant and vain.
Even though James demonstrated enormous strength, he could not care less because he was one of the strongest cultivators to be admitted into the Welkin Academy during the previous examination. If it were not for the fact that he was young and comparatively weaker than those who had cultivated for centuries, he would have gone to Earth to compete for the providence. After all, there was still a slight power disparity between him and the Outsiders of the Sealed Realms who headed to Earth.
“Alright, then.”
Knowing how arrogant his disciple was, the Sect Elder did not press the issue.
In the Moonlit Ridge Painting, James headed in the direction of the central region alongside Melany. Along the way, they encountered many other examinees who were busy trying to seize the tokens of others for themselves. Seeing this, James randomly chose a few of them and seized their tokens before handing them over to Melany.
During the journey, none could stand in his way.
Meanwhile, Melany was giggling the whole time. She never expected the man she saved would turn out to be this powerful. If not for James, she would have been disqualified long ago because she was too weak. She did not have the right to become a disciple of the Welkin Academy.
While they headed toward the central region, the Sect Elder’s subordinates had also entered the painting.
The current Sect Elder in charge of the admission progress was called Yoan Xenocrates, one of the Ten Sect Elders of the Welkin Academy. He was in charge of various affairs of the academy. Besides
that, he also had many disciples under him. Over the past ten years, Zayn Bridger was the most distinguished among all.
Although the one who was sent to test James’ strength was not as strong as Zayn, he was not a pushover either. His name was Wendel Yossi, and he was currently at the Immortal Ascension Third Stair.
Inside the Moonlit Ridge Painting…
“James, I already have a hundred tokens. I guess I have enough,” Melany said with a bright smile.
James thought about it and said, “That’s not going to be enough, I’m afraid. Considering there are around a hundred thousand examinees, there’ll be a hundred thousand tokens out here. In my opinion, you need at least ten thousand to be safe.”
“What? Ten thousand?” Stunned, Melany asked, “Do we have to defeat ten thousand examinees?”
James said smilingly, “Not really… Once we arrive at the later stages, the people we encounter will have many tokens on them. We’ll be able to obtain many tokens without having to fight our way through.”
James spoke nonchalantly. However, Melany knew that only James was qualified to make such a bold claim.
Just as they were slowly traversing the forest, a voice came, “Stop right there, you two.”
James and Melany turned their heads as a figure descended from the sky before them.
He was wearing a green robe, and a sheathed sword was hanging on his waist. Though he was rather ordinary-looking, he exuded a somewhat charismatic aura. The words ‘Welkin Academy ‘were written
on the robe.
Seeing this, James immediately knew he was a disciple of the academy. He knew that he would encounter many disciples along the way. That was because they were here to increase the difficulty level of the examination and disqualify the weaker ones.
“James…”
Seeing that someone blocked their path, Melany gripped James’ hand tightly.
James consoled her, “Don’t worry, I’m here.”
She relaxed a little when she heard this.
James looked at the man before them and asked, “So do I have to withstand a few blows from you or do I have to defeat you?”
