Chapter 233 - Test

In the morning, Xia Xuan opened the window of his room and took a deep breath of the fresh air with the little Zheng.

"You're up so early." Suddenly, the door opened, and Ling Bing walked in slowly with a bowl of hot porridge in his hands.

"You've gone through so much trouble to get that meat porridge on your skin." Xia Xuan looked at the bowl of hot porridge and smiled.

"What's there to be happy about? It's not for you." Just as Xia Xuan was about to receive the porridge, Ling Bing put away the porridge and said proudly.

"Eh." With this, Xia Xuan became a little embarrassed and slowly retracted his hand. He did not know what to do next.

"Hehe, kiss me and this bowl of congee is yours." Ling Bing once again activated mischievous mode, showing Xia Xuan his face, indicating him to kiss her.

"Stop messing around. I'm your sworn brother." Xia Xuan waved his hand helplessly, and then directly forced the porridge in Ling Bing's hand.

Ling Bing did not hide anymore and handed the porridge over to Xia Xuan. Looking at Xia Xuan who was about to drink the porridge, he said again, "It's just someone I want to become sworn brothers with, as long as there's love, there's no problem."

"Pfft." Although he did not drink the porridge, Xia Xuan already had the urge to vomit blood. With a pu sound, the porridge was almost blown away.

"Hee hee." Ling Bing seemed to like Xia Xuan a lot. He immediately started laughing out loud, and the way he was covering his mouth and chuckling made Xia Xuan feel that this little sister of his was still the same as he was ten thousand years ago, so cute and naughty.

After drinking a bowl of porridge, Xia Xuan headed downstairs. Along the way, he met Wang Hao and the rest, and they gathered together.

When he came to the first floor, he found that many people had already woken up. Each of them were eating breakfast as they talked about the interesting things that happened yesterday, of which Xia Xuan heard the most about Ling Bing and Xia Xuan's matter yesterday.

Everyone had already eaten breakfast, so they directly walked out of Seven Stars Restaurant. Arriving at the main street, he realised that everyone was gathering towards one direction, and that direction was the direction of the City Lord's Mansion.

"Is today the day of the test?" Sensing the direction of the crowd, Xia Xuan could not help but ask curiously.

"Do you still remember? We thought that you were so happy to see Ling Bing that you forgot the day of the test." Wang Hao teased, causing everyone to laugh out loud.

Feeling extremely helpless, Xia Xuan could only walk towards the City Lord's Mansion. Since today was the day of the examination, he was afraid that he would have to show off.

The distance between City Lord's Mansion and Seven Stars Tower was not far, and in a short moment, Xia Xuan arrived at the City Lord's Mansion. Even though Xia Xuan had arrived very early, they were still helpless before him.

There were ten tables in front of the City Lord's Mansion, and on each table, there was a crystal ball. The people lined up, they placed their hands on the crystal ball, and entered the spiritual energy into the crystal ball.

As they lined up, Xia Xuan kept looking at the examinees, the majority of them giving off a light glow. When the people around the table saw this, they all shook their heads and waved their hands, allowing the examinee to leave in disappointment.

There were a few examinees who would shine brightly during the test, and those sitting at the table would be pleasantly surprised. They would let the people next to them record something down and hand a tablet to the examiner. Then, the examiner would leave under the envious gazes of the crowd.

"Wow." Just as they were lining up, surprised voices came one after another. A crystal ball not too far away from Xia Xuan was emitting light that shot into the sky, so light that even his eyes could not open.

Xia Xuan looked towards the light, and could vaguely see a man carrying a large knife. The man's body was very imposing, and after recognizing the man's identity, Xia Xuan couldn't help but rub his chin, and muttered: "Pao Peng."

The sword on the man's back was something Xia Xuan knew very clearly. That blade was a pumpkin knife, and Pao Peng's identity was also very clear. He was the pumpkin's son. Xia Xuan still remembered that Ling Bing had said yesterday that among all the participants, he was definitely one that everyone paid special attention to. It was said that his talent was far higher than a pumpkin, and was a key target for the The Divine King's Mansion to train in, so even if he didn't participate in the selection competition, he could still join the The Divine King's Mansion.

"I wonder if I will die from anger after stealing the Overlord's Saber." Touching his chin, Xia Xuan laughed sinisterly, then retracted his gaze. At this time, he had already lined up in front of the table.

The person in charge of inspecting the crystal ball also regained his senses. When he saw Xia Xuan, this Mystical King, he could not help but reveal an impatient expression, and said with an impatient voice: "Hurry and test it."

"Alright." Instead of getting angry, Xia Xuan had a smile on his face, slowly placed his hand on the crystal ball, and then transferred the spiritual energy into it.

"Wow." Because of Pao Peng, the atmosphere became fiery for a while, but before the atmosphere had calmed down, another wave of alarmed cries came from the audience.

A ray of blood red light soared into the sky, the intensity of the light dyeing the sky red. Xia Xuan's light was far more intense than Pao Peng's. All of them were blinded by the light rays, at the same time, they were shocked by Xia Xuan's innate talent.

In the eyes of the people in the Divine General's Estate, those without talent had no value in nurturing them. They did not have the mind to spend a large amount of resources on those who could only strive for power.

The intensity of the light ray was equivalent to a person's Inherent Skill. A light ray of Pao Peng's level could already be considered a peerless genius, and light ray of Xia Xuan's level was something that was hard to come by in a thousand years.

After the light faded, the person beside the table was stunned. He waited for a long time before regaining his senses, and a look of ecstasy surfaced on his face. He hurriedly said to the person who had recorded down the information: "Record, record." With that, the man handed over a purple token to Xia Xuan with respect.

"The selection competition will begin in three days. I believe you can enter any mansion." When he handed over the plate, the man's face was full of smiles, causing Xia Xuan to laugh uncontrollably, he took the plate and prepared to leave.

However, things did not come to an end just like that. There were still six people behind Xia Xuan, but when Xia Xuan left, six beams of light that were as strong as Xia Xuan's emitted out as well. Everyone was stunned, for seven of the geniuses that only appeared once every thousand years, had actually appeared today.

The seven of them had smiles on their faces as they looked at the stunned crowd. Finally, they left under the gaze of everyone.

At this time, inside the City Lord's Mansion, dozens of people were seated upright, all of them holding cups of tea in their hands. Xia Xuan even recognized one of them;

"Phew, your son seems to have lost." A Old Man took a sip of tea and said.

"Humph, there are great talents in the martial arts world. All of you should be more concerned about whether or not you can recruit new blood." He gave a cold snort and no longer paid any attention to those elders from the other Divine General Palaces.

Listening to the others talking about the good seedlings they had taken a fancy to, and taking a sip of tea, the binocular could not help but narrow its eyes.
