I Have A Trillion Protagonist Halos

Chapter 188: Saint King

These words were spoken, Ye Kuang's somewhat diminished arrogance came back. He was a proud son of heaven with unrivaled talent. What could a single assessment prove? He would surely surpass Su Zhan in the future!

Thinking like this, Ye Kuang felt much better.

Hearing Ye Kuang's words, Su Zhan was a bit speechless.

Cultivating for over twenty years and not even reaching the Saint realm, yet he had the nerve to talk about his talent? Do I need to go around bragging about the achievement of advancing from the Meridian Opening Realm to the fourth transformation of the Fish-Dragon Realm in just a few months like you do?

Is this person an idiot? Who constantly boasts about their own talent?

"Yes, yes, you're absolutely right!" Su Zhan gave Ye Kuang a look of caring for an intellectually disabled child and said.

The best way to deal with an idiot is to agree with their words. Make them an even bigger idiot!

"You!"

Ye Kuang wasn't a fool. He could see the deeper meaning in Su Zhan's words, and he was incredibly angry, saying, "Are you mocking me?"

"Why would I mock you?"

"Because, because you're jealous of my talent!"

Su Zhan was taken aback, clearly not expecting Ye Kuang to say something so childish.

"Yes, yes, I'm truly so jealous of you. Jealous that you have an intellectual disability and people care about you wherever you go."

"How dare you insult me!" Ye Kuang was almost bursting with anger, roaring.

Seeing him in this almost-about-to-explode state, Su Zhan chuckled, not bothering to engage further.

Turning to Elder Yue He, he said, "Now that my results have been registered, can I leave?"

"Of course."

Elder Yue He's tone was gentle, devoid of the impatience from before. He said, "After all the results have been entered, within half a day, someone will deliver information about the second round of assessment to the residences of all successful candidates."

"Very well, then I'll take my leave." Su Zhan nodded, the blue light of the Wind God Boots flashing on his feet as he turned and departed.

"Su Zhan! The second round is a test of talent! At that time, I'll show you what true genius means! The humiliation I suffered today will be repaid to you in full!"

From behind, came Ye Kuang's infuriated voice. However, Su Zhan's figure didn't falter, and he paid no attention to those words, leaving the Mangdang Mountain area.

Back at the Little Spirit Mountain, he took a bath in a pool of spiritual water within the small building before resuming his cultivation.

Several hours later, a flashing jade slip arrived from the outside and stopped by his window.

Su Zhan opened the jade slip. It contained information about the second round of assessment.

The second round of assessment would take place tomorrow morning, focusing on testing talent. The jade slip included specific directions.

Tomorrow, candidates could follow the directions in the jade slip to reach the testing location. However, the specific details of the assessment were not mentioned in the jade slip.

"Young Master Su! I am Yue Xiao, from the Sun Palace of the Tianyang Prefecture. I've come specifically to visit you!"

"I'm Xue Ling. You can call me Xiaoling. I admire you greatly, Young Master Su. Would it be possible for us to exchange some insights about sword techniques?"

"Young Master Su, I am Yunxiao, the eldest son of the Yun family from the Hezhou Prefecture. I've brought some unique Yun family spirit tea. I'd like to invite you to enjoy it!"

Outside, voices rang out one after another.

Su Zhan closed the window with some annoyance.

These visits had been ongoing for over an hour, and as time passed, more and more people came to visit.

By now, the area in front of the 25th Spirit Rain Pavilion was filled with geniuses and exceptional young women from various regions.

It was even livelier than the first Spirit Rain Pavilion where Ye Kuang was located!

Su Zhan couldn't be bothered to meet these people. He took out a soundproof talisman, activated a small soundproof zone, and sat down within it, cultivating quietly.

Meanwhile, on top of the first Spirit Rain Pavilion

Ye Kuang stood on the balcony, looking from a distance at the throngs of people gathered in front of Su Zhan's abode. In contrast, his own place was becoming increasingly empty. His heart was filled with envy and resentment.

"Young Master, a letter from the Patriarch."

Just at this moment, a servant who had accompanied Ye Kuang to the Holy Land respectfully handed a jade token to him.

Ye Kuang accepted it, and his spiritual power entered the token. After a moment, a hint of joy appeared on his face.

"Excellent! Father says that the Ancestor has already informed the Swordless Saint King about my situation! The Swordless Saint King is very likely to personally come and observe my talent assessment. If I perform to his satisfaction, he will take me as his disciple!"

"The Swordless Saint King is a true Sword Dao Saint King! Among the Saint Kings of the Holy Land, his strength undoubtedly ranks at the forefront!"

A pleased expression couldn't be suppressed on Ye Kuang's face as he looked at the Spirit Rain Pavilion where Su Zhan was located. He showed a contemptuous expression.

"Hmph! When the time comes and I become the disciple of the Swordless Saint King, what qualifications will this Su Zhan have to be arrogant in front of me? I will make sure to humiliate him severely! I'll make him bear a shadow in his heart, cloud his Dao heart, and hinder his future cultivation progress! Hahaha!"

Just the thought of tomorrow, when he could finally wash away his past humiliation and become a disciple under a Saint King, Ye Kuang couldn't help but burst into hearty laughter.

Heavenly Profound Holy Land.

In the central region of the core area, at the center of a spiritually rich small lake, there is a pavilion. Inside the pavilion, two elderly men were sipping tea and chatting.

One is dressed in a loose blue robe, while the other wears fine silk garments.

"Brother Tang, I heard that you recently acquired something called the Five-Light Treasure Mountain. Are you planning to transfer all the underground spiritual veins' energy from Mangdang Mountain to your Five-Light Treasure Mountain?" the silk-garbed elder recalled something and asked with a smile.

The elderly man in the blue robe shows a self-satisfied smile, "I don't really care about that bit of spiritual energy. However, the Five-Light Grass is quite unique. Once my Treasure Mountain benefits from the power of Mangdang Mountain's spiritual veins for three to five years, the Five-Light Grass will merge into the specially crafted Five-Light Treasure Mountain of mine."

"By then, I can refine this Five-Light Treasure Mountain into an extremely powerful Saint King's weapon. Even if the refinement fails, I can use it as an ornament in my cave dwelling, and it will still look quite good!"

"In that case, I must definitely visit Brother Tang's residence when the time comes!"

"No problem, I'll show you the marvelous uses of my Five-Light Treasure Mountain by then, hehe!"

As the elder in the blue robe chuckled, he suddenly turns his head and looked at a certain direction, a trace of puzzlement crossing his face.

The other seated elder has obviously noticed too. He looked in the same direction and seemed to peer through the dense forest to see what he wanted to see. He was somewhat astonished as he said, "It's Xiaolin. What is he doing here? Could it be that he also wants to have tea with Brother Tang?"

"Brother Li is joking. Unless I invite him, I doubt he would dare to come here uninvited." The elder in the blue robe shook his head.

Soon, Xiaolin appeared in their line of sight. He arrived at the lakeside, kneeled down a few hundred meters away, and respectfully said, "Elder Tang, your Five-Light Treasure Mountain has been taken away by someone! I have returned it to its original location, but the damage inside still needs Elder Tang to personally inspect!"

"What?"

The elder in the blue robe's face changed, and he spoke in a deep voice, "That's impossible! Not to mention Heavenly Profound Holy Land, even in the entire Tianxuan Empire or the entire Southern Territory, there are very few who would dare to take my, Tang Wujian's, Five-Light Treasure Mountain! Even if those people want to deal with me, they wouldn't go so far as to move a mountain of mine!"

"Elder Tang, it was done by one of the participants in the Core Disciple Assessment this time!"

"That's even more impossible!" Tang Wujian let out a cold snort.

"My foolish ox, while it might not be very useful, it is still capable of deterring those young ones who haven't reached the Saint realm yet!"

"If you were telling me that some things were stolen, I might believe that my stupid ox missed something. But if you tell me that someone moved my mountain, are you insulting my intelligence?!"
