When people saw Connor's cocky look, they became more annoyed. "Just because you said you'll get 3500 points, you think we're going to believe you? You know there's consequences of bluffing, right?"Connor's gaze suddenly turned as sharp as a knife as he glared at the speaker. The man was so terrified that he dared not to say another word. Then, Connor uttered word by word, "If I get 3500 points, your life’s mine. If I don't get it, I'll chop off my head and give it to you. Do you dare to bet on that?"Since Connor was able to say that, he was indeed confident with getting the 3500 points."3500 points? That's interesting!" Caspian saw the scene and had a sudden hunch. Then, he turned his gaze sideways toward the lawn far away from him. In the yard, the elders of the sects were camouflaging themselves with the help of formation, and they were having an intense discussion. "It's Connor Yeager! Why’s he here?""Why didn't we get any news about him attending this ceremony?!""Wit
Caspian was stunned by the sudden change of view as his surroundings turned colorful. Nevertheless, Caspian quickly understood that he might have entered Fantasy Space. As he expected, Caspian soon realized that he was indeed not in the Cherry Blossom Valley anymore, but he was now in a vast grassland. The area appeared boundless, and a gentle breeze was blowing.Thankfully, Caspian observed the performance of the young warriors in the previous eleven rounds. Otherwise, he might also be somewhat panicked at this time. However, Caspian noticed before that during the test, the young warriors would tightly shut their eyes as if they were sleeping, and none of them left.Only those eliminated would be woken up and sent out of the formation. Hence, Caspian could tell he also had his eyes shut and in a meditating state in reality. Furthermore, Caspian also knew the test he had to go through would be done in this Fantasy Space. Nonetheless, Caspian was not in a hurry to move. Instead, he
Fifteen minutes quickly passed by. Although it might appear like a short time, half of the participants were eliminated due to the strictness of the Sects' Recruitment Ceremony. Those with higher marks were only around 400 points. However, only when the participants were eliminated would the virtual spirit steal their names and the scores. Hence, everyone was not aware of the remaining 600 people's scores, including Caspian and Connor's.Nonetheless, Caspian did not look at the score on the screen anymore as he was entirely in battle mode and was filled with murderous intent. Almost as soon as the wild beasts appeared on the lawn, Caspian quickly locked his sight and rushed toward them. Then, his Blazing Spear immediately hacked, stabbed, chopped, swept, smashed at them, directly destroying the wild animals. If anyone saw the entire process, they would describe it as a walk in the park. No matter how ferocious these wild beasts appeared, Caspian easily killed them as if they wer
However, no one paid attention to the warrior's remorse and indignance. Instead, everyone looked at Caspian and Connor. Nonetheless, most people were still focused on Connor.In their opinions, Caspian was already at his limit as his cheeks were dripping in sweat, and Connor appeared calmer. Moreover, everyone also thought that Caspian and Connor probably faced the same opponent. Thus, the crowd believed that they were battling the same enemy, yet Caspian felt immense pressure, and Connor was only frowning. Hence, the gap between the two was obvious.Looking at the two final remaining warriors, the crowd could not help but whisper among each other. "The third place scored 1800 points. It seems that Connor's score should be over 2000.""He dared to use his life as a bet before this, so getting 3500 should not be a problem for him.""However, who's this guy? He's holding on until now. I bet his score will be over 2000 too.""I don't know who's that, but compared to Connor, he does
As time slowly passed, the crowd in Cherry Blossom Valley started to get more anxious. Even at that time, they could not confirm whether Caspian or Connor would be eliminated first.Caspian's state appeared to be gradually getting worse. It was obvious that his pressure increased. However, Caspian had extraordinary willpower and resilience, so he was able to hold on until now. On the other hand, Connor far exceeded everyone's expectations. His condition seemed to have plummeted. In an instant, his previous calm appearance was crumbling. Sweat was dripping down his forehead like a stream, flowing along his cheeks.Seeing this scene, Ian thought, "Their scores should be on par with each other."Then, he looked at Caspian and shook his head. "Is there a need to do so? Even if your final score was slightly better than Connor, just the slightest bit, your potential is far worse than Connor's."Soon, the discussion in the crowd started to become louder."Who do you think will have a h
Since Caspian's ranking was above Connor's, it naturally meant he scored higher than Connor's.At that time, Connor's expression was extremely unsightly. Everyone also looked at one another, and they saw the look of disbelief in each other's eyes. The elders from the various sects noticed Caspian from the beginning, but none of the young warriors present knew Caspian. Initially, they thought Connor would surely be ranked first. However, it seemed that Caspian not only stayed longer in the formation than Connor, but his score was also higher than Connor's. It was truly remarkable. Moreover, what made people feel inconceivable was Caspian's score was yet to come out even after a long time. Before anyone's points were revealed, there would be a gleam of light, which indicated that the virtual spirit stele was calculating the warrior's score. The higher the warrior's score, the longer it took the virtual spirit stele to calculate, and the longer the ball of light would glow. Connor'
Ian looked at Caspian and saw that he passionately conversed with a group of elders."Mm. That's right!" Facing these elders' enthusiasm, or perhaps their dubious gaze, Caspian remained calm. After all, he expected that the elders would suddenly rush up to him, so he was not nervous at all.Caspian admitted, "I've indeed met with a slight accident before the Sects' Recruitment Ceremony that caused my meridians to be completely damaged, but I didn't give up. Instead, I've preserved and trained every day. Thankfully, when there's a will, there's away. Just a few days before the ceremony, my energy channels healed.""Do you mind if we check them?" One of the elders asked.The matter was not trivial, and they must make sure of its validity."Sure! Go ahead." Caspian nodded.Then, Caspian showed one of his arms. In an instant, a few elders around him placed their fingers on his hand. The scene went silent, and everyone looked at Caspian, especially the group of young warriors. All o
The scene went into absolute silence. If anyone had the slightest doubts about Caspian's score, their uncertainties were all gone. Not only did the doubts disappear, but none of them dared to harbor such thoughts.After all, such strength was not comparable to a young warrior. The dominant aura that belonged to a cultivator was apparent on Caspian. Moreover, when the young warriors saw Connor lying unconscious on the ground and convulsing from time to time, they felt their hearts beating wildly, and remained quiet. On the other hand, the elders of the sects' admiration for Caspian deepened.A mortal embarking on the journey to be a warrior and cultivator was to be above others. Suppose one successfully became a cultivator, yet still being doubted by warriors, and could not do as one wished or had to be mindful of others' attitudes. What was the point of cultivating and entering such a path?Hence, Caspian's behavior was precisely in line with the insightful way of living that the el
