Enterance Test
Xinhua Town is pretty far from Qian Village. But, because of his new strength, he arrived at Xinhua Town faster than before.
After running at full speed from Qian Village To Xinhua town, he was out of breath.
"Phew, I finally made it..."
He took a deep breath and then proceed to the test site.
When he entered the town there were many Young men like him who are waiting for the entrance test of the sect.
but when he arrived there, the sect gate was closed.
He then decided to ask one of the passersby.
"Excuse me, what happen to the sect entrance test?"
The man looked at him and then replied "You don't know? It was postponed. it will start in two days."
"Why was it postponed?"
"Who knows? don't ask me."
then the man left hurriedly.
'Well, it's not like it's a bad thing for me... I should find someplace to stay.'
he then found an Inn to stay at he entered the Inn and then pay 10 silver to stay for two days.
Usually staying for two days only worth about 5 silver coins but because of the sect entrance test, the price spiked.
He was afraid of being late so he decided to stay in the town.
he was tired, but his strength regained quickly, in only a few hours his strength returned.
It's the benefit of entering the body forging realm.
he then fell asleep.
****
Two days passed quickly and today was the start of the entrance test.
In two days he bought a weapon for himself and then and an armor although it won't help much at least he was much prepared than yesterday.
Many people are gathered in front of the gate in the gate there is a majestic sign on the sign there it was written " Matchless Jade Sect"
Everyone was waiting for the examiner of the test. there he met with many people who is nervous and some is brimming in confidence.
As for Cao Xing, he is nervous too, even though the Old man said that it would be enough for him to pass, he was still nervous.
and then someone, flying on top of a sword showed up.
"Hello everyone, today Matchless Jade Sect is Accepting disciple, and I'm the examiner."
Without waiting for others, the examiner continued.
"Now I will explain the test, you only need to attack this pillar beside me, if the color turns black it means you failed, yellow means you barely passed, green means you passed and red mean you passed well."
the pillar was twenty-meter tall.
"Okay now, who wants to try?" The examiner smiled.
The Examiner was scanning the crowd. When the examiner's eyes met with their eyes they somehow felt the pressure.
It seemed simple, but the sect test can only be taken by someone under the age of 16.
Suddenly someone in the crowd stepped forward.
"Me." a young man walked out from the crowd.
"Oh, it's Young Master Huo Yi Please." the examiner said while smiling.
Huo Yi is from one of the great clan in Xinhua Town they said all the clansmen are trained in Fire technique.
Huo Yi readied himself and fire gathered in his palm.
The fire started gathering in his palm and then Huo Yi sprang forward.
When his palm touched the pillar a burst of flame exploded making everyone felt the wave of heat.
"What an extraordinary strength." one of the spectators is dumbfounded.
"I feel like I'm burning here!"
"This is the Hua clan Strength!"
everyone was shocked by the display of strength.
And then the pillar turned into red color.
"congratulations Young Master Huo." the examiner said
"It's nothing." Huo Yi said he then left the pillar.
The test continues, Many People Failed and only a minority passed, and only some got a red-colored pillar.
He didn't see many people since his turn was almost the last, and he didn't want to stand there to wait.
He waited until dusk and then his turn arrived.
Getting up to the platform Cao Xing was getting worried he never tested his strength before.
"look is that an Axe on his back? Is he going to chop wood or something?" everyone was confused
"is that your weapon?" the examiner asked Cao Xing, it was a very rare type of weapon.
"Yes." Cao Xing said.
It was weird since many cultivators only use a weapon like a sword, saber, and rod, even though there are many other weird weapons, but Cao Xing's weapon was used to chop wood and trees. Though it's sometimes used in a war, not many cultivator use it, because almost all people who use an axe didn't reach much in the way of the Axe itself not many people have seen something like Axe intent, unlike sword. because of that many people thought that the Battle Axe wasn't suitable as a weapon for a cultivator.
Cao Xing Readied himself in a basic swing position It was a position when he was going to chop a tree down.
He then swung his Battle Axe to the pillar.
while Huo Yi palm is making other people felt burning, Cao Xing swing gave other people a crushing feeling.
Suddenly the pillar turned red in color.
The examiner was surprised the red color means he is on par with Huo Yi
And not only that Cao Xing has Attained a state like one with the sword but different while sword causes others to feel as if they're about to be cut by a sword, Cao Xing Halberd causes others to feel as if they're about to get crushed by his Axe!
The crowd was confused, what was the golden color means?
"What is the golden color means?" one of the participants is confused
"What was that Axe swing! I feel like I was being crushed!" and others were still feeling the state of being crushed.
Is that young man a descendant of the giant race?
The examiner was confused, because there was no way someone who use an a normal axe can make the pillar turn red.
While people are discussing Cao Xing quietly go down from the platform
The examiner then realized that it was over so then he coughed to get attention from everyone and tell them that was the end of the test.
After the Test passed the Examiner explained to the people who passed that in the sect there were 5 peaks In the sect named Violet Jade Peak, Blue Jade Peak, Brown Jade Peak, Green Jade Peak, and then Red Jade Peak.
And then the examiner brings all the participants to the respective peak that they were accepted to.
But it's different for Huo Yi and Cao Xing and some other people who Cao Xing and some people he didn't know, they are the top examinee so they can choose what peak they want to enter, though it's pretty useless since people would choose corresponding to their element.
What's important is they got extra merit to exchange for cultivation resources.
"Hey what peak are you picking?" Huo Yi suddenly said
"I don't know... " Cao Xing said
Everyone who gets to choose their peak looked at him.
'Is this guy serious?' Was written on their face.
"It's because I never check my element that's why I don't know what to pick." Cao Xing explained.
"Well... we should call the examiner then." Huo Yi suggested, and then the examiner gave him the Element resonator rock.
Everyone didn't choose their peak yet, they were curious what element Cao Xing would get.
Cao Xing touched the Element resonator rock and the rock gradually changed color into gold.
"Congratulation your element is Gold, you should go to the brown Jade Peak then, good luck. I hope we meet again." Hou Yi patted Cao Xing shoulder.
Hou Yi then left the group and walk to the Red Jade Peak.
The first time he met Hou Yi was at the entrance to the gate, he thought that Hou Yi was arrogant, but now Hou Yi was more like a caring brother to him.
It was the first time he felt like that.
With Hou Yi's recommendation, he told the examiner that he wanted to go to the brown Jade peak, and so he was led to the place.
Cao Xing then was led to his living quarters. Inside his living quarters he could see a badge and a robe for outer disciple the robe was brown in color, representing the Brown Jade peak.
The badge was a token to identify yourself as a Matchless Jade sect disciple, and inside the badge, there is a number showing his current merit, Cao Xing can use the merit to exchange for cultivation resources.
After settling down, Cao Xing fell asleep.
In the morning he wore his new robe and walked to the martial art pavilion the place to exchange martial arts.
Now that he knew what element he has, he should pick some martial arts for him.
