“Zhou Han, greet Elder Lin!”

Nie Tianchen hurriedly said, afraid that Zhou Han had done something wrong.

The higher-ups of the Sword God Hall were divided into nine elders who mainly dealt with internal affairs.

After that, there were the four big shots. They were Sword Shadow, Sword Emperor, Sword Demon, and Sword Venerable.

They lived in seclusion and rarely managed daily chores.

Elder Lin, who had come this time, was one of the nine elders and had great authority.

That was why Jiang Xiong lowered his head.

“No need! You’re Zhou Han? You’re indeed extraordinary!”

At this moment, the sternness in Elder Lin’s eyes was gone. Instead, his face was filled with kindness.

“Elder, you flatter me!”

Zhou Han said neither servile nor overbearing.

“I’ve already heard about your test results. There are still some doubts.”

“I brought the Shadowless Mirror this time. You don’t mind testing it again, do you?”

Elder Lin took out a mirror-like thing and asked for Zhou Han’s opinion.

It was mainly because he had not seen it with his own eyes, so he had to test it himself this time.

[Shadowless Mirror: Can sense the cultivation technique obtained in the Visualization Hall with a limit of Emperor-grade. Worth 500,000 soul crystals.]

Zhou Han looked at the mirror that was flickering with a ghostly light. Its attribute description was also displayed.

“Emperor-grade cultivation technique?”

Zhou Han frowned. He was a Divine-grade cultivation technique. If this was tested, wouldn’t that destroy the Shadowless Mirror too?

This was something worth 500,000 soul crystals!

If it was damaged, Zhou Han would have ruined 600,000 soul crystals.

What if he had to pay up?

“Elder, why don’t we forget about it? I’d better not!”

Zhou Han probed.

“Yes? What’s wrong?”

Elder Lin’s eyes narrowed. No expression could be seen as he asked.

“I—I—”

“Zhou Han, now you’re afraid!”

“You must have used some underhanded method just now. You’re afraid of exposing yourself!”

Just as Zhou Han was hesitating about how to say it, Nikawa Okane jumped out and seized the opportunity to scold Zhou Han.

“How dare you! Do you have the right to speak here?”

Elder Lin shouted, his eyes flickering with sword light.

At a glance, Nikawa Okane flew out.

He fell to the ground like a dead dog, his fate unknown.

“What a reckless guy. He doesn’t know the rules at all. Elder Lin didn’t even speak, but he dared to interrupt!”

“That was enough for him. I think he’s still breathing.”

“Rude juniors should be taught a lesson!”

“I’ve been annoyed with this guy for a long time. He looks like human waste!”

…

Due to Elder Lin’s arrival, many people came to watch.

After seeing Nikawa Okane fly out, everyone immediately discussed it gloatingly.

‘Damn! That’s ridiculous!’

One look was so powerful that Zhou Han was also a little surprised.

“Can you tell me your reason now?” Elder Lin asked calmly.

“I’m afraid I’ll damage the Shadowless Mirror!”

Zhou Han still told the truth.

“Hehe, don’t worry. It’s just 500,000 soul crystals. Even if it’s broken, I won’t ask you to compensate!”

Elder Lin was a little amused as if he could see Zhou Han’s concerns.

If he could really damage the Shadowless Mirror, it would surpass an Emperor-grade cultivation technique.

That was a peerless genius that only appeared once in a hundred million years. He could not be happier. What were 500,000 soul crystals?

‘Hehe, that’s what I was waiting for!’

“Then I’m going to start!”

He saw Elder Lin nod.

Zhou Han held the Shadowless Mirror and shone it at himself.

A handsome face appeared in the mirror.

Just as Zhou Han was engrossed in his handsomeness…

Crack!

There was a crack and a crack appeared on the mirror.

Then the cracks spread quickly, more and more densely, finally, it shattered into countless pieces that scattered on the ground.

The scene was instantly silent. The sound of debris falling to the ground was clear.

For a moment, everyone was dumbfounded. They were stunned for a long time before starting a heated discussion.

“Damn, even the Shadowless Mirror shattered. This young man is too terrifying!”

“To be able to comprehend a cultivation technique that surpasses the Emperor-grade is unprecedented! He’s undoubtedly the number one prodigy.”

“The other prodigies are probably crying because they’re in the same era as him!”

“My Sword God Hall is about to rise up. Our past glory will definitely bloom again!”

“I have to pull some strings later. If I can befriend such a prodigy, there will definitely be many benefits in the future.”

“Impressive. You know the ways of the world better. Then what should I give you?”

…

Everyone started with shock, praise, and finally talked about making friends.

Clearly, Zhou Han’s performance had already convinced everyone.

“The test results are out. Zhou Han has successfully passed. His grade has exceeded the Emperor-grade!”

Elder Lin directly announced the result, surpassing the Emperor-grade.

It no longer mattered what grade it was. Besides, there were no tools to test it.

Elder Lin looked at Zhou Han with a burning gaze.

Sword God Hall was no longer at its peak. It had been a long time since any decent genius appeared.

This time, a peerless genius came.

It was definitely a morale boost.

“Perhaps the rise of the Sword God Hall will really fall on him!”

Elder Lin pondered.

As Elder Lin announced, the system notification also sounded in Zhou Han’s mind at the right time.

[You have successfully completed Mission 2.]

[Reward: 1,000 Soul Crystals.]

[As you have exceeded the mission, you are rewarded with an additional 10,000 Soul Crystals.]

It was finally done.

The reward this time was very generous.

He directly obtained 10,000 soul crystals.

‘I wonder what the third step of the awakening mission is?’ Zhou Han thought.

“Zhou Han, you did very well. You greatly boosted the morale of my Sword God Hall.”

“Today, on behalf of the Hall Master, I will bestow the title of number one prodigy on you.”

As Elder Lin pointed with his finger, a golden light flew towards Zhou Han.

It was so fast and powerful that it shocked Zhou Han.

It was still there. He quickly felt the vastness and warmth of this energy.

Every part of the body was nourished, and strong strength surged in his blood.

The onlookers stood up and applauded.

Their eyes were filled with approval and excitement.

This was a big deal for the Sword God Hall!

As a member of the Sword God Hall, everyone had a strong sense of honor.

“The number one prodigy is fully deserving!”

“He turned into a dragon after a storm! He’s about to take off.”

“He’s so awesome at such a young age. His future achievements are limitless!”

“I want to give him my daughter. Even as a concubine!”

“How tragic! I don’t have a daughter. Why don’t I give my wife to him? I wonder if he’ll mind!”

…

[You have obtained a title: Number One Prodigy. Do you want to check the attributes?]

“Check!”

He wondered what the attributes of the Number One Prodigy title were.

Zhou Han could not wait to start reading.
