Prodigiously Amazing Weaponsmith Novel - Chapter 1782
Chapter 1782: Successful candidate (2)
This made Pang Yihao keep away his scornful attitude and started to re-evaluate this beautiful young lady again.
She was indeed Li Moying’s fiancée, indeed someone with outstanding talent.
Just at this moment, the large bronze bell at the foot of the mountain rang as its deep bell ringing reverberated throughout the entire public square.
On hearing the bell, the clamouring crowd all instantly turned silent.
Because that meant that today’s Sky Ascension Stairs assessment was about to start officially.
After a moment, Cang Po Yu appeared at the tall stage to announce the regulations of the assessment.
“…. Today is already the assessment’s sixth day so I believe that everyone already understood the regulations of the Sky Ascension Stairs assessment. This Seat will emphasize a few main points again: Number One, it basically means death for practitioners who are seventh stage or lower to fall down the cliff and everyone must remember this point to make a cautious choice. Number Two, according to regulations, inner disciples who are able to enter the top one hundred of the Cloud Mounting Chart will be promoted to core disciples immediately and you will also get double the rewards. Additionally you will get three days cultivation time in the Swordbath Pool so everyone please do your best because this is the best opportunity which you can get in the entire year!”
After Cang Po Yu’s words were done, the inner disciples at the foot of the mountain all revealed excited and anticipated expressions, apparently all prepared to do their best later on.
But those practitioners at the spectators’ seats apparently didn’t think so.
“These inner disciples really know how to daydream, did they really think that they are able to enter the Cloud Mounting Chart top one hundred?”
“There are close to three hundred Blue Profound Sect’s direct disciples and their cultivation is mostly above the seventh stage realm! It’s already considered not bad for those inner disciples to have sixth stage realm cultivation, yet they’re still hoping to enter the top one hundred?”
“Generally there would be a black horse once every ten years and that would be an achievement already! Recently I’ve never heard of any outstanding characters within the inner disciples so it looks like there wouldn’t be anything much to see in today’s assessment.”
Amidst the discussions, the assessment started officially.
Inner disciples were split into ten over groups and each group had twenty people who set off simultaneously.
However, as the Sky Ascension Stairs was a pathway constructed out of bricks and stones popping out of nowhere, not to mention how dangerous it was, at any point of time, only one person could pass through the path.
So many people setting off at the same time meant that right from the start, there was already an intense competition!
The examining officer sounded the horn and twenty practitioners immediately fought to rush for first place as they all dashed out! At the same time, they attacked those practitioners who were beside them or blocked the path of the others who were on their way up!
Every one of them were clear that it was easy to obtain the lead right from the start and the suppression on their Profound Energy was much weaker so the faster they climbed, the lesser they expended and it would take after a certain height when they required more leftover energy to deal with the gradually increasing resistance.
At the height of five hundred meters and below, even for those seventh stage realm practitioners who fell, there wouldn’t be much danger and that took off some worries from the others.
Huang Yueli had been through this kind of scene many times so she was already used to it.
Luo Jiyun opened his mouth wide and spoke out in surprise, “So, the Sky Ascension Stairs is so dangerous right from the start…..”
Pang Yihao had been listening to them nearby and at this moment in time, he couldn’t help but butt in, “What kind of danger is this considered as? Anyway falling down now would not sustain heavy injuries!”
“But once they reach five hundred meters and above, falling down would be dangerous right?”
Pang Yihao smiled and said, “The amount of Profound Energy for those who had just mounted the Cloud Mounting Chart us around half of the normal situation and at this time, everyone’s pressure isn’t considered too heavy.”
