The Sovereign Of The Three Realms
Chapter 32: Impressive Performance, Making a New Record
Geniuses were happy to spend time on the second basic exam.
Every genius seemed to like to use this masochistic method to me.r.a.n.g.s.a.n.g.his own potential. Jiang Chen was no exception.
Previously, none of the many geniuses of the Eastern Kingdom had obediently left the room after an hour had passed.
Everyone continued to persist inside, and refused to come out until they reached their limit.
This test had basically become a hidden battle stage for top-tier geniuses.
They race who can last the longest inside.
Who can kill the most flying beetles.
In reality, no one could think of shooting down the flying beetle towards the end of the exam. They were too busy dodging the boundless sword aura that danced around without rules, threatening to take the lives of the candidates at any moment.
The bystanders began to gather outside the sword aura space.
Jiang Chen had been in the sword aura room for an entire four hours. Many curious observers rushed into the room as the news circulated.
Four hours, what kind of concept is that?
The sword aura attack would double its power every hour in the sword aura space. This meant that after four hours, the sword aura in the room increased sixteenfold!
If he still hadn't appeared after another hour, the power of the sword aura would have increased to 32 times, and continued at that level!
“Jiang this Chen, is he dead there?”
“Stop the nonsense. If a candidate was killed by the sword aura, his mechanism would stop attacking when he did not sense life. They will also send you a.” notice
“Heh heh, I'm curious, that's all. Is this Jiang Chen really that good? ”
“Wolf hairy sheep. He really is a wolf in sheep's clothing.”
“Ai, the only result of comparing yourself to others is a frustrated death! I remembered that I wanted to perform in front when I took the second basic exam and stayed there for another hour, but that dual sword aura almost ended me!
“Do you know what is the longest record to stay inside the sword aura room?”
“I don't think anyone made it past six hours.”
“Said that Miss Long Juxue stayed in the room for almost six hours. He almost faced a 32-fold attack!”
“Hahs. Don't compare Jiang Chen to Miss Long Juxue. He's not worth it!”
“Yes. Although Jiang Chen was a wolf in sheep's clothing, he was only slightly stronger than an ordinary genius. Miss Long Juxue was a genius for centuries! A peerless genius who possessed a blue phoenix constitution and had attracted the attention of a large hidden sect! They are not at all on the same level.”
“Compare Jiang Chen with Miss Juxue is an act .p.e.ni.s.taan against Miss Long Juxue!”
Many excited fans immediately opened their mouths to make Jiang Chen become less valuable in terms of Miss Long Juxue.
It was clear from this that Long Juxue was in great demand among these heirs. You have to give it to her, her charming natural charm is no trivial matter.
“You there, what nonsense are you farting? My brother, Chen, is my brother, Chen, why should he compare himself to others? This sounds like an earthquake.
Fatty Xuan has arrived. As Jiang Chen's best friend, insulting Jiang Chen in front of him was worse than insulting him.
The muscular Hubing Yue stood next to the fat Xuan.
Both are fat or stocky – like two mountains, giving others an impressive feeling.
It was easy to be sarcastic, but these onlookers did not yet have the courage to actually go head-to-head with Jiang Chen. These two comers were Jiang Chen's best friends. Insulting them was the same as offending Jiang Chen.
Another hour passed…
Fatty Xuan checked the time in this — hourglass is the sixth hourglass.
Each hour of sand represents one hour. That is, Jiang Chen had already been in the sword aura room for six hours.
The sword aura attack level had now reached 32 times.
Although the fat Xuan was still bragging proudly, his tightly clenched fingers under his robe showed his internal anxiety.
“Fatty Xuan, do you think brother Chen could be in danger?” Hubing Yue was equally worried.
“Do you think brother Chen is someone who doesn't know his limits?” Fatty Xuan asked in response. Although that was what he said, the fat Xuan wasn't too sure of his own words.
Jiang Chen had never before been this great or displayed such potential before.
He had jumped over the challenge to survive the sixth hour. Of all the heirs, only Long Juxue had accepted the challenge before, but she had not made it to the end.
If Jiang Chen appeared after the hourglass ran out, then he would break the record this year!
However, Long Juxue was already at the eight true qi meridians, about to break through to the ninth meridian when she took the second basic exam.
He treated the sword aura space as a means to his potential me.r.a.n.g.a.n.g and broke his shackles, as a way to successfully ascend to a true qi of nine meridians!
He succeeded in the end.
Long Juxue was not even 15 years old at the time. He broke through to the ninth meridian in one move and became one of the few, mighty ones within the kingdom.
One must know that other than very few true qi masters, nine meridians true qi was basically invincible.
And of all the true qi masters in the kingdom, who hasn't practiced for at least a few decades? He could stand shoulder to shoulder with experienced true qi masters at an age that was not even fifteen yet. With such potential, it was no wonder he had an asure phoenix constitution.
Long Juxue was now sixteen years old, and there was a vague rumor that there was only a thin veil separating her from being a true qi master of ten meridians. It was a very thin veil that could be punctured by a single puncture.
All eyes stared intently at that hourglass.
Many feel complicated emotions. They hoped for a miracle to be born, for a topic ripe for new gossip to appear in the kingdom. They also felt a little envious at the same time. What right did this Jiang Chen suddenly become such a blockbuster figure?
Long Juxue fans even cursed him inwardly, hoping that Jiang Chen was hit by the sword aura attack and thus destroyed.
Long Juxue was the goddess of their hearts, and they really did not want to see the previously famous useless person break the record made by their goddess.
Letting Jiang Chen break Long Juxue's record was the biggest humiliation for the goddess!
However, the problem will not change due to the thoughts of some people. The sand in the hourglass slowly trickled down as time went on, second by second.
Finally, the hourglass reached its end.
As the last grain of sand trickled down, the entire hourglass was finally emptied!
That means six hours are up!
The stone door to the sword aura opened stammeringly. There was a slight trace of sweat on his forehead, as the previous five hours had not weighed him nearly the same as the last hour.
The power of the sword aura at 32 times that in the sixth aura was simply too terrifying. If not for the fact that Jiang Chen had comprehended a bit of the rhythm of the sword aura, he would definitely not have been able to withstand an attack with his true level of training.
After seeing Jiang Chen walk out slowly from the room, those who verbally attacked Jiang Chen all hid with guilt backwards.
It was as if Jiang Chen could pierce through the darkest recesses of their hearts with his bright and clear gaze.
They did not even have the courage to look Jiang Chen in the eyes at that moment.
As for Jiang Chen, his entire body was like a finely honed blade, his light increasing with each step he took. It wasn't Jiang Chen who came out of the room! Everyone suddenly got the impression of a heavenly weapon walking out of the room.
After his baptism with sword aura at 32 times over, Jiang Chen was indeed infused with sword light slashes at this moment. It would be more appropriate to say that the sword aura had cut and polished Jiang Chen, rather than baptizing him.
After all, Jiang Chen had become one with the sword aura, and his light shone brightly!
“Brother Chen, Brother Chen, first of all genius!” Fatty Xuan called out with great emotion.
“Jiang Chen, congratulations. You have passed the second basic exam with bright colors!” The organizers in charge of this segment were also shocked, and sincerely admired Jiang Chen's appearance.
Such amazing shows are not available every day. The organizers were proud to witness the achievement themselves.
“What? Six Hours? Are you sure there is nothing wrong with the sword aura space?” Du Ruhai found it hard to trust his eyes when he received Jiang Chen's second basic exam results report.
Even Long Juxue's previous performance paled in comparison to this record.
“There is nothing wrong with the sword aura space. The boy stayed there for a full six hours and shot down 120 flying beetles.”
“Jiang Chen!” Du Ruhai's overcast eyes emitted a sinister look. “Looks like I should pressure you even without Duke Long's advice. Otherwise, with the grudges I have formed with your Jiang family, what place would there be for me if your Jiang family were to really rise to power?
At this moment, Du Ruhai was even more resolute in his determination to firmly suppress Jiang Chen.
If he did not suppress Jiang Chen, he, Du Ruhai, would have no future to speak of.
Jiang Chen was currently the biggest winner of the two basic exams, and had won the support of many neutral parties. Many saw a shadow of themselves in Jiang Chen.
Ordinary potential, rank of a duke. But even with the circumstances surrounding his birth, Jiang Chen's performance was not inferior to that top-tier heir.
They had found an emotional sustenance, a point of resonance with Jiang Chen.
Therefore, when Jiang Chen appeared at the exam site for the third basic exam, he was actually accompanied by many people cheering and clapping for him.
Apart from a few prominent heirs, only Jiang Chen enjoyed such treatment.
The third exam is also the easiest of all the basic exams. It tests the basics, concepts that can be put into memory.
Of course, there is also a dissertation topic that allows for creative relaxation – that tests the candidate experience. The final score will not be affected even if this free form topic is left blank.
As long as one answered all those memorizing topics, one would receive enough points to pass the theory exam.
Therefore, there is a saying in the three basic exams that during one pass the first two exams, the third is a walk in the park.
Only a fool or a person who really does not study will fail the third exam.
Jiang Chen walked to the exam site for the third exam amid a standing ovation.
Four rolls, four tests represent the main topic of “Defense Art Articles”, “Roh” Treatment Articles, “Make Strength and Influence”, and “Make Military Strategy”.
