Chapter 1404 Mengmeng Plans to Muddle Along

“I see. Alright. Thank you.”

Mengmeng responded perfunctorily and ran to the line where the people stayed after finishing the examination.

All eyes were on her.

Mengmeng was used to it, but now she felt a little guilty.

“I can’t have others recognize me while dressing up as a dude. I’ve used Daddy’s treasures, which should be okay.

“I’m a talented young man now. So it won’t matter if I try to act like a weirdo and an introvert. I’ll just need to calm down.”

Mengmeng raised her head, put her hands behind her back, and looked at the crowd calmly.

“What an expert!”

“He’s so powerful.”

“In the face of such a proud result, he remains calm and collected. This man will definitely achieve great things. I must build a good relationship with him.”

“…”

When they saw Mengmeng’s posture, many of them admired her. “He’s neither arrogant nor impetuous, and he’s completely calm and composed. That’s truly amazing.”

“Now begins the second assessment, the comprehension stone.”

This time, when it was Mengmeng’s turn, tens of thousands of people were focused on her. Among them, only three could make the stone turn purple.

In fact, those who could achieve that had already been admitted.

However, no one knew about that yet.

The comprehension stone was similar to the talent stone. One’s result would also be decided by the colors of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and purple.

The two people who had reached the purple level had nice comprehension abilities. One’s result was blue, while the other’s was indigo.

On the contrary, two candidates who didn’t have much talent had stunning comprehension abilities. Both of their results were purple.

When it was Mengmeng’s turn, she looked at the comprehension stone ahead.

She silently prayed in her heart. “I’ll run one-third of my cultivation power. I can’t make any mistakes or I’ll become famous before entering the sect.”

Mengmeng pressed her palm on the stone and ran less than a third of her power.

Clatter!

The stone turned from red straight to purple without turning into other colors during the process.

Mengmeng’s super comprehension ability had even shocked Zhang Han before. It could be imagined what level she had reached.

“What?!”

“What’s going on? The comprehension stone is not working?”

“It didn’t turn into any other colors. It turned purple from red directly. Is he an insider? Did he pull strings?”

Many people were bewildered and stunned.

Even the protector above couldn’t remain calm any longer. With a flash, he came down and looked at Mengmeng excitedly.

He said, “Zhang Hanyang, are you willing to be my disciple?”

“What?”

Mengmeng was stunned and dumbfounded.

“What a lousy stone!

“I used less than one-third of my power and I passed?

“Alas, this is not what I expected.”

If anyone knew what she was thinking, they would probably burst into tears.

“It’s hard for us to pass the test even if we work ourselves desperately, but you managed to pass it and even show disdain to the comprehension stone.”

At the same time, Mengmeng was not used to being called Zhang Hanyang.

But she had to get used to it.

After thinking for two seconds, Mengmeng said hesitantly, “I…don’t know how to refuse you.”

“Well, as for this matter… Hmm? What did you say?” The protector first nodded then was in a daze.

“Did he just give me a refusal?”

“I said, I don’t know how to refuse you. Will I get any benefits if I become your disciple?” Mengmeng asked.

The protector was speechless and didn’t know what to say.

“Nonsense!”

A supervisor, said, “This is Protector Ma of our sect. He is very powerful and you’re lucky that he is willing to accept you as his disciple, but you even dare to refuse?”

“Eh? Don’t push it. He’s right.” Protector Ma waved his hand and said, “Zhang Hanyang, you can think about it first. There’s no hurry. Just tell me about your decision when you adapt to living in the sect.”

“Oh my god!”

The crowd gasped.

These words showed that it was a sure thing that the young man was about to enter the sect and become a protector’s disciple.

What kind of status would he have?

It should be noted that the protectors of the Crimson Sunglow Sect had high prestige and were able to chat and laugh with magnates of any region.

“Listen up. There can’t be any problems with the stones, so there’s nothing wrong with Zhang Hanyang’s scores. Let’s put an end to this matter. The assessment continues.”

After saying that, Protector Ma returned to his seat.

As for the others, they also continued to take part in the assessment, but more people were looking at Mengmeng.

It was time for the third round.

“In the combat abilities assessment, you will attack some inner-door disciples. You’ll attack, and they’ll defend. Present your strongest combat abilities.”

Mengmeng wasn’t worried to deal with this round.

After all, she could control her combat strength more casually. Furthermore, those Older Martial Sisters and Brothers were also very powerful.

All of the participants that came on stage were at least in Yuan Ying Realm. Some were in the Elixir Realm.

The four sects did not focus on one’s strength and realm but on talent and aptitude.

Mengmeng thought to herself.

“I’ll just use the combat capability of the Elixir Realm Last Stage.”

Mengmeng pretended to run her power hard to launch an attack.

Opposite her was a male disciple.

When faced with this attack, he easily neutralized it without moving at all.

“Zhang Hanyang, your combat strength isn’t high. It must be that you have just started cultivating. After you enter the sect, you’ll improve through hard cultivation.”

“Huh? I’ve been cultivating for a long time,” Mengmeng immediately said.

“There’s no need to be modest. How old are you? It’s normal for young people to be arrogant. What you mean by a long time is nothing more than one or two years, which is just a moment for cultivation.” The man was determined.

Judging from his expression, it seemed that no matter how the other party tried to explain, he could not hide the fact that he was a super genius.

“Alas!”

Mengmeng felt helpless.

She wanted to keep a low profile, but unexpectedly, it didn’t turn out well.

“This year’s contestants from the Astral Domain of Vast Heaven are just so-so. I haven’t exerted my full strength yet, but they are all so weak.”

Mengmeng didn’t think too much about it. She felt that something was wrong, but she didn’t think about how talented she was.

“The exam is over.

“Here is the promotion list. Those who have failed to advance can try again in the next assessment five years later.”

The protector waved his hand.

He glanced at more than a dozen outstanding disciples of this competition and finally fixed his eyes on Mengmeng. He took a deep look at her, made a gesture, and turned to leave.

Although there was no ranking, Mengmeng’s combat capability belonged to the lower-middle class.

But Zhang Hanyang’s name was still ranked first.

In actuality, the first two rounds were the most important.

Soon, those who had failed left with great disappointment.

Those who advanced were beaming with excitement. They were all smiles and delighted.

“From now on you’ll be the outer disciples of the Crimson Sunglow Sect,” said a supervisor. “I’ll take you to the sect. There’re 136 assessment points in total and about 500,000 disciples that have advanced. But only 100,000 of you will get to become inner-door disciples. Therefore, don’t think that you get to be lying flat just because you have passed the assessment just now. Now go to the outer gate with me.”

The group flew majestically at a low altitude, crossing mountains and rivers.

Three hours later, many teams could be seen gathering in the distance. There was a huge building complex in front of them, which was the location of the outer gate.

After they came to various areas and were settled down, Mengmeng blinked and looked around.

“Why haven’t I and the people around me been arranged?”

Unexpectedly…

“Guys, follow me,” the supervisor said with a smile.

“Where are we going?” a chubby boy asked.

“You are talented, so you are directly promoted as the inner-door disciples. You’ll choose different peaks for cultivation. Congratulations.”

“Wow!”

“We’ve become inner-door disciples!”

“…”

Many people were extremely excited, and most of them were in their teens.

Of course, some of them were relatively steady.

Mengmeng was among these people.

Because fundamentally speaking, she didn’t care about this place.

“Anyway, I’ll leave when Daddy gets here.”

There were very few people who flew into the inner gate. When gathered together, there were only about a hundred people.

They arrived at a hall.

Many of the people inside were in their twenties or thirties and came from different peaks.

“The ones in front of you are disciples from the various peaks. They’re here to receive you.”

The leading protector waved his hand and a picture appeared out of thin air.

“Here are the explanations for the subjects that every Peak Master majors in. You can make your decisions. Your Older Martial Brothers and Sisters will bring you to their peaks to familiarize yourselves with the environment.”

At first glance, almost all types were involved including soul techniques, occult arts, battle techniques, curses, body movements, Body Cultivation Methods, formations, pellet refining, beast taming, and illusions.

It was very detailed. Some Peak Masters majored in several types, but some of them only focused on one kind. Those newcomers did need to think about what they wanted to choose for a while.

“What should I choose?”

Mengmeng was a little stunned and didn’t know what to choose. But soon, her eyes fixed on a certain place.

“Orchid Peak majors in pellet refining, soul techniques, and illusions. This will do. Now I’m going to spend my days here. Anyway, I’ve learned something about pellet refining.”

Mengmeng didn’t know what level her pellet refining was at. She thought that according to her father’s standards, by which he could condense a pellet in the void, she had only learned superficial stuff about pellet refining.

“Then I’ll muddle along here for a while.”
