Chapter 2284: Display Of Talents
Su Mo continued to ignore Zhu Yan’s mocking. He did not bother about arguing with Zhu Yan as he felt that it was pointless.
Yet regardless of Su Mo’s lack of response, Zhu Yan continued with his childish ways.
“Duan Jingtian, I thought that you were talented but I must have thought too highly of you,” Zhu Yan shook his head and jeered.
With that, he looked at Qin’er beside Su Mo and said, “Qin’er, you thought too highly of Su Mo as well.”
“The Heavenly Gate Round does not represent anything!” Qin’er denied. She did not believe that Su Mo was untalented.
After all, she knew that Su Mo had the Great Rotating Sacred Sword Primordial Spirit. This Primordial Spirit was a top Primordial Spirit, how could it be that weak?
Even Twin Primordial Spirits could not compare to a single Great Rotating Acred Sword Primordial Spirit.
“The Heavenly Gate Round is the best measure of the talents of the Primordial Spirit!” Zhu Yan’s face darkened. Even at this point, Qin’er still defended Duan Jingtian and this made Zhu Yan angry.
Su Mo coldly glared at Zhu Yan. That man who dared to disturb Qin’er, was the previous lesson not enough?
“Enough, Zhu Yan, you don’t have to be so foul-mouthed.”
Luo Yun walked over and reprimanded Zhu Yan. Then she turned towards Qin’er and said, “the three rounds of heaven, earth and human will tell us how strong Duan Jingtian is.”
Although Luo Yun’s words appeared to be helping Su Mo, that wasn’t the case.
She was telling Qin’er that Duan Jingtian’s talents would be revealed later.
“Mm!” Qin’er nodded her head.
Su Mo remained silent at this exchange and he ignored Zhu Yan and Luo Yun.
There was no need to show his talents to the two.
A short while later, the Heavenly Gate Round concluded.
About seven hundred discipled came from the Six Palaces but only five hundred passed the Heavenly Gate Round.
The remaining two hundred disciples could have been talented in other aspects. However, the weakness of their Primordial Spirit prevented them from passing the Heavenly Gate Round.
The six elders observed everything and they had a sense of how talented the disciples were.
A short moment later, the Earth Gate Round began.
All of a sudden, a black blanket of mist covered the green jaded door of Reincarnation Ancient City.
As the black mist rose, a large frame of a door appeared before the crowd.
However, this door frame was special. Not only was it pitch black, numerous dark spirits flew around the door frame, making it appear sinister and ominous.
“This is the Earth Gate Round and it will be testing the talents of your physical body!”
Elder Xuantian announced as he stared at the group.
In fact, he was particularly trying to inform Su Mo about the second round. Su Mo had disappointed him in the first round.
Su Mo’s face remained calm but he knew that Elder Xuantian was giving him a warning.
And yet, Su Mo already knew about the Second Round and also how to pass it.
Shoosh!
A sharp sound tore through the air as Tian Chenshan rushed to pass the Earth Gate Round first.
The moment Tian Chenshan rushed into the door frame, a large evil spirit that was almost like a demon, entered Tian Chenshan’s body.
In an instant, Tian Chenshan’s body froze and he remained still in front of the Earth Gate.
Everyone stared with bated breaths at Tian Chenshan, wanting to see how long he would take.
One breath of time!
In another breath of time, Tian Chenshan moved. He had passed the Earth Gate Round and he slowly lowered himself onto the ground.
“Another breath of time, Tian Chenshan is brilliant!”
“Top Primordial Spirit talent and a top physical body!”
“Incredible!”
Many people praised Tian Chenshan at the same time as they were envious of him. Tian Chenshan’s talents were too incredible!
“Tian Chenshan, you are not the only person who can pass the round in a breath of time!”
A loud voice rang through the air and a black-robed man rushed through the Earth Gate.
This black-robed man was short and the face beneath the robe was ugly, with two vampire-like teeth sticking out of his mouth.
Men from the Ghost Tribe were ugly and strange looking.
Ghost Tribesmen were not real ghosts but their external appearances were similar to Evil Spirits.
“Gui Sheng is incredible too!”
“Yes, regardless of the Heavenly Gate or the Earth Gate, Gui Sheng does not appear to be weaker then Tian Chenshan!”
“The strongest person of the ghost tribe lives up to his fame!”
Many people exclaimed. The short Ghost Tribesman was the strongest member of the younger generation of the Ghost Tribe and his name was Gui Sheng.
“Hehe, nothing much!”
Ji Yue song laughed lightly before he flew towards the Earth Gate.
Naturally, Ji Yuesong also used a breath of time to pass the Earth Gate.
Su Mo nodded silently. Before the talents of the Six Palaces entered Reincarnation Ancient City, they were already competing with each other.
Previously, he had checked around and found only about ten people who were a threat to him.
Among them were Tian Chenshan of Heavenly Palace, Gui Wuxue of Demon Palace, Hua Xiaoque of Beast Palace and Gui Sheng of Ghost Palace.
Apart from them were other second ranked talents such as Lin Wushuang of the Human Tribe who could not be underestimated.
Shoosh shoosh shoosh!
One by one, the talents flew into Earth Gate.
In an instant, many ghost shadows rose from the Earth Gate and formed a cluttered mess.
Ah!
A scream rang through the air, some people vomited blood and were thrown backward from the Earth Gate. Not only did they fail to pass the gate, they were also injured slightly.
“Duan Jingtian, go. What are you waiting for?” Zhu Yan stared at Su Mo with a mocking look.
Luo Yun also stared at Su Mo. The Earth Gate would be able to test Su Mo’s talnts.
Heavenly Gate only tested the talents of a Primordial Spirit while the Earth Gate tested the talents of a physical body.
The talents of the physical body encompassed the Blood Force, body, bones and meridians of a martial artist.
The stronger the physical body, the faster it would kill the Evil Spirit.
Qin’er did not speak and a curious expression crossed her eyes.
She knew that Su Mo had the Great Rotating Sacred Sword Primordial Spirit but she didn’t know anything about his Blood Force.
“Zhu Yan, your skin must not be so thick!”
Su Mo lightly muttered before his body flashed and he headed into the Earth Gate.
Buzz!
The moment Su Mo entered the Earth Gate, an invisible force immediately stopped him in his tracks.
Not only was his body bound, his mental strength, Sacred Elixir and movements were all locked.
With that, an Evil Spirit flew out of the black door frame and rushed into Su Mo’s body.
The moment the Evil Spirit entered Su Mo’s body, it triggered the resistance of Su Mo’s Blood Force.
Almost instantly, Su Mo’s Blood Force destroyed the Evil Spirit.
With that, Su Mo’s body regained its control and the bounding force on his body disappeared.
Shoosh!
Su Mo’s body flashed and he passed through the Earth Gate before he slowly lowered himself onto the ground.
This entire process took no longer than a breath of time, or even half a breath of time.
“What?” Zhu Yan was instantly stunned and he stared in disbelief at Su Mo.
“This…!” Luo Yun’s heart also jumped. Duan Jingtian had actually used roughly half a breath of time to pass the Earth Gate. How was that possible?
“So strong!” Qin’er shock could be seen from her agape mouth and incredulous expression.
Although she had prepared herself for the surprise that Su Mo might actually be really talented, it was almost unimaginable for Su Mo to pass the second round in half a breath of time!
“Hm?”
At that point, a confused expression crossed many people’s faces as they recognized Su Mo’s timing.
Many people had been taking notice of the other talents and hence, Su Mo’s exaggerated timing did not escape their eyes.
“How could that be?” Ji Yuesong frowed deeply. What terrifying Blood Force strength did Duan Jingtian possess?
Tian Chenshan, Gui Sheng and the others all frowned as they surveyed Su Mo. Where had that man come from?
“Not bad!”
Supreme Being Xuantian’s eyes brightened and he nodded his head. This was the talent that the Reincarnation Body was supposed to have!
