Chapter 15: Chapter 15: I select...

Eren scratched the back of his head as the realization struck him.

He had thought that the unique grade reward was going to be special that could help him get stronger, but at the end of it all, it turned out to be just a bluff skill.

What was he going to do with a bluff skill? Toss it at the Demon Sect Master's face when she came to kill him?

"You're so kind, my dear system," he sarcastically stated.

Although he was disappointed, he knew he had to do the best with what he received.

Although the Sword Emperor's Aura couldn't help him in an actual battle, but from the reaction of the other Elders, he could see that the bluff effect wasn't bad.

He thought that maybe he could actually survive if he bluffed his way out of problems.

He wanted to test his theory. He couldn't feel his own aura, so he wanted to see if it was enough to intimidate the other Elders.

Although it was risky, he tried it.

"Are you telling me what I should be doing?" he asked, his eyes coldly staring at Elder Li on the ground.

Elder Li didn't know how strong this guy actually was. He was selected by the Sect Master who had assigned him the position of an Elder. But from his aura, he felt that this guy could be dangerous.

Although Elder Li didn't know if Eren was strong enough to defeat him, but he didn't want to test it.

If they fought amongst each other, the Sect Master was going to get involved. Elder Li was scared the most of the Sect Master of Demon Sect. The last thing he wanted was to have her come here.

"I certainly can't tell you what to do," Elder Li replied, folding his arms around his chest. "If you want to stay there, it's your wish."

Eren nodded. "In that case, we can begin."

He was slightly pleased to know that the effect of his passive bluff skill was quite good. In fact, it was better than his expectations.

As long as he didn't expose his weakness, he might change the future and survive.

....

The Sect Entrance Exam was the most important event for the youngsters who wanted to join the Demon Sect.

The test was personally witnessed by three Elders of the Sect. Every year, the three Elders responsible for the exams were different.

No one knew which three Elders were going to be selected next year. But even though three Elders were the observers, it didn't mean only they could be selected by the disciples.

Once the first stage of the battle was complete, the teams were broken again.

Soon began the next stage. A stage in which the disciples had to actually fight an Elder that they selected.

Amongst the three who were present here, they could select anyone.

Of course it was impossible for the youngsters to win, but it was just a way to have them show their battle skills when facing an enemy that they had no chance of winning.

This way, the Elders could judge them better. It was also a way for the Elders to humble the youngsters and make them realize that they had a long journey ahead.

It was also an opportunity for the youngsters to directly interact with the Elders who they wanted to impress.

Eren knew that this was a stage in which Elder Ren wasn't selected. So he was quite relaxed.

From what he had read in the story, everyone selected Elder Zhang or Elder Li. They were the famous Elders that everyone wanted to impress after all.

For Eren, that was the best thing to happen. He didn't want to have to fight a youngster and have his bluff called out.

The second trial began, and continued just as Eren had expected.

The Six Star Talent chose Elder Zhang Wei as an opponent to fight. She couldn't even get close to Zhang Wei, but her performance wasn't bad.

Even though she passed out, she gave it her all.

Over an hour passed and youngsters kept challenging Elder Li or Elder Zhang.

Soon, it was finally the turn of the Main Character.

Eren paid attention to this battle as the main character had chosen Elder Li in the book.

It was also the first time the main character was brutally thrashed. However, he also received the best score out of everyone, eventually taking the top rank in the Exams.

"Who do you want to challenge?" Zhang Wei asked Ye Liang.

"Is there even a need to ask? He's selecting Elder Li." Eren thought, but didn't say out loud.

However, as he heard Ye Liang's response, his expressions darkened.

"I select Elder Ren," Ye Liang said.

"You motherf-" Eren almost cursed out loud.Visitt novelbin(.)co/m for the latest updates
