Chapter 223: The Dust Settles, Begin Selecting People

In the arena.

When she sensed the energy fluctuations of the flame in Wang Zhixing’s palm, the monster launched a counterattack.

The crystal on her forehead gathered a lot of energy. In an instant, it shone brightly, and a dark green light appeared above her head.

Qin Chuan looked over.

The energy fluctuations emitted by this light were very similar to the energy waves released by the monsters.

From this, Qin Chuan could roughly deduce that she was about to launch an attack—the monster’s energy wave.

Its official name was Atomic Breath.

It was a high-energy particle beam, and its energy was comparable to nuclear weapons.

Although it was powerful, it required a long time to prepare.

Judging by the energy fluctuations, her Atomic Breath was as strong as the flame in Wang Zhixing’s palm.

After all, genetically modified humans were not real monsters.

If she was a real monster, she would threaten a cultivator at the Qi Refinement stage, even if it was a level-one monster.

Wang Zhixing was currently in the eighth class of Qi Refinement, two classes above the average.

Qin Chuan knew that he wouldn’t have a problem dealing with the genetically modified monster person.

Soon, the monster person’s Atomic Breath was ready.

Wang Zhixing smiled faintly and threw the flame in his palm.

The flame shot toward the monster person like an automatic tracking missile.

Seeing this, the monster person immediately released the ball of light before her forehead to shoot out a dark green beam of light.

Boom!

In the blink of an eye, the two forces collided.

Strangely, there was no explosion.

The red and green colors were locked in a stalemate.

However, because the monster person’s Atomic Breath was a continuous output, the stalemate lasted for a while before Wang Zhixing’s flames were pushed back.

Wang Zhixing remained calm. He silently chanted a spell, and a ball of flame once again appeared in his palm.

Then, the flame left his palm and flew out, fusing with the first flame.

In an instant, the flames were as dazzling as the sun.

The temperature in the venue rose again. Many people couldn’t stand the heat and almost fainted.

They didn’t know that the temperatures inside the barrier were even higher, enough to boil water. It was not something a human could stay alive in.

Within the barrier.

After the two balls of flames merged, their strength increased greatly, and they quickly pushed the dark green beam back.

She gritted her teeth and continued to inject energy into the crystal on her forehead.

In the end, the two powers entered a deadlock. Then, after reaching a certain point, an explosion occurred.

The explosion was powerful enough to destroy the entire venue, but the people outside would not be harmed with the barrier.

Presently it was as if a raging firestorm had appeared within the barrier. It was impossible to see what was happening inside.

Everyone thought that even stone would melt in the arena.

Was he even human?

In their bewilderment, the flames dissipated instantly.

A small, inconspicuous gourd appeared in Qin Chuan’s hands.

The flames from earlier had been absorbed by the small gourd.

Without the flames, the temperature of the air slowly dropped.

Within the barrier.

The monster person’s body was emitting flames from her black scales. She was bent over and panting heavily. The attack just now had consumed a lot of energy.

On the other hand, Wang Zhixing was surrounded by True Qi, his aura still surging.

He raised his palm again, and another ball of flames rose.

The next second, the flame transformed into the shape of an arrow.

When she sensed the energy fluctuations, her eyes were filled with fear.

This was because the energy fluctuations of this arrow-shaped flame were many times stronger than the previous ones.

In the exchange earlier, she was made aware of the gap between herself and her opponent. If she continued fighting, she might die.

She was clear about her mission.

As the genetically modified monster person successfully created by Yun Country, she had another purpose besides obtaining first place in participating in the Martial Arts Conference. It was to test the extent of her strength.

However, the Immortal Sect appeared out of nowhere.

She knew how powerful the Immortal Sect was, but she felt that she had inherited all the characteristics and skills of the monsters. She thought she could defeat them.

Therefore, she did not take their strength to heart.

But now, she understood that she had underestimated the capabilities of the Immortal Sect.

In reality, that was not the case.

If it were someone else, the genetically modified monster person would be able to put up a fight.

However, the Goddess of Luck was not on her side. She met Wang Zhixing.

Wang Zhixing was the one with the highest cultivation level among them. Moreover, he cultivated fire techniques, so his offense was extremely strong.

Even if he encountered an ordinary level-one monster, Wang Zhixing would be able to deal with it calmly.

Hence, after some consideration, the monster person decided to admit defeat.

The rules of the Martial Arts Conference allowed one to admit defeat.

“I…” her mouth twitched. However, she only managed to utter one word before a red line streaked across the sky like a bolt of lightning.

It went straight into the crystal on her forehead and then quickly came out from the back of her head.

The arrow-shaped flame in Wang Zhixing’s palm disappeared. At this moment, the monster person had died.

At the same time.

In a certain research institute in Yun Country, a red tag suddenly appeared on an instrument display.

The staff member was shocked and quickly contacted his superior.

One day later…

Early in the morning.

In the Hundred Thousand Mountains, there was a long queue in the Li Clan’s residence.

All the members of the aristocratic families were gathered here. The line was several kilometers long.

Yesterday, after Wang Zhixing killed the monster person, Disaster was defeated, and the Martial Arts Conference came to an end.

During the closing ceremony, the Patriarchs announced that Qin Chuan was planning to select a few people to cultivate with him.

This caused an uproar.

He’s giving out free benefits. Who wouldn’t want to go!

However, there was a condition for the selection. One had to pass the test of the Heart Refining Rock.

Presently, the test had been going on for more than ten minutes.

It started with the Li family, but so far, no one had passed.

This made Li Jingchen very worried, especially when he saw those that lit up seven or eight stars.

It was too difficult to reach ten stars.

He couldn’t help but wonder if this Heart Refining Rock had ten stars at all.

Although he suspected so, he did not dare to mention it.

However, it would be too embarrassing if all of them failed.

Li Jingchen thought of a suggestion.

Hence, he asked Qin Chuan if he could lower the test conditions.

For example, he asked if Qin Chuan could make an exception to take those with seven or eight stars?

Qin Chuan did not reject him right away.

He said that if there were very few people who passed the test in the end, he could consider easing the conditions.

Li Jingchen was happy to hear this.

Just then, ten stars suddenly lit up in front of them.

Li Jingchen was shocked. Happiness came so suddenly that he was both surprised and delighted.

The person who lit up ten stars was Li Shuirou, a genius of the Li family.

Qin Chuan was also very surprised that she passed.

After all, they had quite a bit of killing intent.

But there wouldn’t be any problems with the Heart Refining Rock. If she could pass, then perhaps she had her merits!

Hence, Qin Chuan wrote Li Shuirou’s name into the booklet.

After that, another person illuminated ten more stars. It was a young man.

Li Jingchen was quite surprised that this person had passed the test of the Heart Refining Rock.

It was because this person was not a genius of the Li family but a very ordinary junior of the family clan. It could be said that he did not have any presence in the family clan.

But now that he’d passed the test on the Heart Refining Rock, he had made a rapid promotion.

Instantly, many people cast envious gazes at this young man.

Of course, more were out of jealousy.

Qin Chuan asked for the name of the young man.

The youth answered, “Li Fan.”

Qin Chuan was surprised when he heard this.

As far as he knew, anyone who could have this name was definitely?extraordinary1.

Time slowly passed.

Soon, all the adults were tested, and only five passed.

The pass rate was quite low.

Next up were the eighteen-year-old youths and children.
