Chapter 2056  Test 2

As for the others…

They followed Gu Chaoyan towards the sect, while Zhuo Yuanbai's expression turned grim. It wasn't the time for him to display his anger. He still had half the distance to cover, and his spiritual power was rapidly depleting. If he couldn't endure much longer, he would soon collapse.

Standing at such a great height, a fall would leave him severely injured.

He had no other choice. He clenched his teeth and forged ahead, intentionally ignoring Gu Chaoyan as a means to vent his frustration.

Gu Chaoyan waited for Zhuo Yuanbai at the entrance of the Supreme Sect.

Zhuo Yuanbai mustered his last ounce of strength and was on the verge of reaching his destination. With well-meaning intentions, Wu Yuehe extended a hand to help him up. Zhuo Yuanbai's face was pale as he barely managed to stand at the entrance of the Supreme Sect.

He lacked the energy to say anything further to Gu Chaoyan. His sole focus was on seeking revenge against the Zhuo Family and erasing the humiliation he had experienced.

The disciples who had arrived to take the examination proceeded to the Supreme Sect for the official assessment.

The Elders observing through the Heavenly Stone Mirror wore different expressions on their faces. This year's examination was quite exceptional.

Some disciples were able to swiftly decipher the solution, while one even devised his own method using spiritual energy. It was a first.

As a result…

Ironically, those who utilized the correct approach went unnoticed. Instead, Zhuo Yuanbai became the topic of discussion among a few inner sect Elders.

"I wonder what kind of Spiritual Roots he possesses and what level of cultivation he has. If the quality is commendable, he could potentially join our sect. His perseverance is extraordinary. Although he may be reckless, that aligns with the spirit of our sect. We value perseverance more than mere intelligence. If he meets the requirements, don't snatch him away from me!" an inner sect Elder remarked, filled with admiration.

The Elders from other sects acknowledged Zhuo Yuanbai's talents but didn't hold a favorable opinion of him. Consequently, they refrained from continuing the conversation.

Since the examination had yet to commence, there was no need for them to rush. They could patiently observe and wait.

The future official examination would serve as the determining factor for selection.

The inner sect Elders continued to observe the examination through the mirror.

Unbeknownst to Zhuo Yuanbai, as he prepared for the initial assessment, he had attracted the attention of an Elder from the Fist Faction. Had he been aware of this, he might not have felt so disgruntled.

Although the Supreme Sect hadn't attained the status of a super sect, it possessed a solid foundation. The Supreme Sect's Patriarch was a Paragon Martial Saint.

Furthermore…

The Patriarch of the Supreme Sect had rescued an expert from the ancient continent in the past. Unfortunately, the expert couldn't survive and ultimately perished within the Supreme Sect. Besides the Patriarch, the Supreme Sect boasted the support of other powerful figures. This was why the Supreme Sect held its current position.

The Supreme Sect comprised a total of six sects: the Medicine Sect, the Fist Sect, the Sword Sect, the Refiner Sect, and the Beast Sect.

Simultaneously, these sects were divided into the outer and inner sects.

Should they pass the examination that day, they would officially become outer sect disciples. After three months, an inner sect examination would be conducted. Successful candidates would then be able to enter the inner sect.

Gu Chaoyan's aim was to gain entry into the inner sect.

Only those who had entered the inner sect were deemed eligible to obtain the One Origin Grass.
