Chapter 712: Identity Revealed!
Chapter 712: Identity Revealed!
As Su Yi and Xi Wuqing approached, armored guards spoke up.
This registration point only welcomes those who are not disciples of the Five Sects and Three Schools or VIPs. Others are not accommodated.
"Vip, hmm..."
Su Yi frowned, surprised to discover that there were VIP services available for registration. It seemed that the disciples of those prestigious sects and schools had quite a few advantages and conveniences.
"Who can be considered as VIPs?" Xi Wuqing asked softly, his expression displeased.
"The Sacred Mountain and the prestigious guests invited by the Five Sects and Three Gates, including alchemists, craftsmen, and Soul Tamers, are considered honored guests and are allowed to enter this place to register and undergo the examination."
The guard spoke, sensing an invisible aura emanating from Xi Wuqing. He felt a slight tremor in his heart and, as a result, his temper subsided considerably.
"Is it like this? Then does this count as a VIP?"
Upon hearing this, Xi Wuqing waved the emblem that he had just taken off in front of the guard.
"The Emblem of Yutian Palace."Looking at the emblem in Xi Wuqing's hand, the guard, who served as a small leader within Central Region City, had a bit of insight and immediately recognized the emblem.
Looking at the color and grade of the emblem, the guard's face changed drastically. Immediately, his attitude shifted to one of respect and courtesy. He glanced at Su Yi, the Green Emperor, and Xi Wuqing. With utmost respect, he bowed and spoke to Xi Wuqing, "Sir, you are indeed an esteemed guest. Those who come with you are naturally allowed to enter and register."
"Then make way."
Xi Wuqing put away the emblem, waved his hand, and took the first step forward without much courtesy. His gaze lingered on Su Yi, a hint of arrogance evident in his expression.
"I have an emblem too."
Su Yi pouted and followed behind Xi Wuqing.
On the small square, dozens of people were lining up to register for the testing. The youngest ones appeared to be around fourteen or fifteen years old, while the oldest ones seemed to be no more than twenty-four or twenty-five. There were no elderly people around.
The arrival of Xi Wuqing and the Green Emperor instantly attracted a lot of attention. Eventually, all eyes turned to Su Yi, and they seemed to be filled with disdain.
Just coming to register, yet he even brought along elders from his sect. This caused many people to feel quite repelled.
Feeling the gazes of the crowd, Su Yi also felt helpless. He glanced at the people present, each of them appearing remarkably outstanding with extraordinary poise.
As Su Yi approached, a guard dressed in armor motioned for him to join the queue, while Xi Wuqing and the Green Emperor had to stand aside and wait.
Su Yi was at the back of the line, with a young man in his early twenties standing in front of him. It was unclear which sect or faction he belonged to, but he had an impressive air about him. There was an indescribable aura emanating from him, and he casually glanced back at Su Yi before turning his attention elsewhere, paying him no further heed.
Su Yi didn't mind at all, his gaze immediately falling on the inspection ahead. There were several middle-aged men and women who were registering and conducting tests for these young disciples who had signed up for the Saint Martial Assembly.
Su Yi took a moment to survey his surroundings and soon caught a glimpse of what was happening.
This registration test would record information such as the sect's gate and the disciple's name and age. Afterwards, there was this peculiar stone-like object used for testing that appeared to be able to determine one's cultivation age, which was quite mysterious.
After passing the final test, they would receive a jade pendant-like object. It seemed that with this jade pendant, they would be able to participate in the Saint Martial Assembly after three days.
"That detection stone detects the year of qi and thus determines age. The Saint Martial Assembly is a challenge and verification for the younger generation, to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the situation."
Just as Su Yi curiously examined the stone-like object for testing, a message from Xi Wuqing reached Su Yi's ears.
"Oh, I see now..."
Su Yi thought to himself, "It seems like this test is quite mysterious, but in reality, it's not too extraordinary."
As young people were being tested one by one, Su Yi quietly made a mental note. Surprisingly, there were several individuals from the Qiantian Sect, Sanyuan School, and even the Qingxu Sect.
These Qiantian Sect, Sanyuan School, and Qingxu Sect are among the five sects and three schools, and they are the co-organizers of the Saint Martial Assembly.
Meanwhile, there were also some young people who seemed to have certain identities, being disciples of forces that were only second to the five sects and three schools.
Su Yi, being a boy, had his turn for the test quite quickly. After dozens of people were tested, it took less than half an hour for him to be called up.
Among the several middle-aged men and women responsible for registration and testing, there was one middle-aged person with a square face, short black hair, and sharp eyes. He glanced at Su Yi and held a jade tablet in his hand. He asked Su Yi, "Name, age, which sect do you come from?" in a stern voice.
Su Yi squinted his eyes slightly and said, "I am Yi Su, I am sixteen years old, and I come from the Overlord Sect!"
"Swish, swish..."
As Su Yi spoke these words, before they could fully settle, all eyes on the square suddenly focused directly on him, like electric sparks.
The middle-aged men and women responsible for testing were stunned for a moment, and then a strong and impressive aura locked onto Su Yi.
"Yi Su, the disciple of the Overlord Sect, truly had a stroke of luck. He obtained what he had been searching for without any effort - it came to him effortlessly!"
The middle-aged man who had just questioned Su Yi had a faint smirk in his eyes as he looked at Su Yi, feeling excited inside. However, he quickly regained his composure and pretended that everything was fine.
The person who was wanted throughout the entire city ended up right in front of them. This was the person whom the City Master personally wanted. Having them fall into their hands could be considered a great achievement.
However, the middle-aged man's gaze soon fell upon Xi Wuqing and the Green Emperor, who were not far away.
From the information passed down, there was a powerful Yuan Emperor and Demon Emperor by this young man's side, ah! It must be those two!
The middle-aged man secretly exchanged a glance nonverbal communication and immediately a middle-aged woman hurriedly departed from his side. With the presence of the powerful Yuan Emperor and the Demon Emperor, they were unable to contend with them.
All around, many Central Region guards dressed in armor, their unseen auras locked onto Su Yi, Xi Wuqing, and the Green Emperor. Without reason, their gazes became piercing, and an underlying tension filled the air.
The expressions and gazes of the crowd couldn't escape the eyes of Su Yi, Xi Wuqing, and the Green Emperor, causing them to subtly change color.
Su Yi gaze at the middle-aged man, squinting his eyes. It seemed that everyone was indeed waiting for him. Only the City Master of the Central Region could have orchestrated such a situation to deal with him.
"Go and test it. Infuse your energy into it, there will be a display. If the stone doesn't emit a red light during the test, then it proves that you have passed the test and can participate in the Saint Martial Assembly."
The middle-aged man's face showed no trace of emotion, returning to its usual state. He suddenly became especially concerned about Su Yi.
"Okay."
Su Yi pretended not to know, but in fact, he had come to sign up as well. Taking a cue from others, he had already figured out the testing process ahead of time. As he approached the stone-like object for the test, he unleashed his inner energy from his palm and infused it into the stone.
Instantly, it was enveloped in a radiant, dazzling light, but there was no trace of red glow.
"Did I pass the test?" Su Yi asked the middle-aged man as he calmed down his inner energy.
