Chapter 575 - 171: Strongest Life Force
A while later, Yamamoto Taro accepted the assessment.
When the beam of light hit him, a black mist emerged from his body, which had the power to devour and block the beam.
Everyone was sensing the change in Yamamoto Taro’s aura.
"Ninety-five points."
An assessor announced after a while.
Yamamoto Taro looked somewhat dejected.
Obviously, he aimed for full marks.
At this moment, the Black Tiger Fish Demon Ye You stood in front of the bronze mirror.
The bronze mirror was a human magical artifact.
It had a special rune array on it, capable of storing power, which could explode with terrifying destructive force under the array’s guidance.
As a Deep Sea Fish Demon, Ye You knew the power of human magical artifacts.
Standing in front of the bronze mirror, he felt apprehensive.
Fearing humans might break the rules and release all the power within the bronze mirror to blast him to death.
"Hmph!"
Nevertheless, he accepted the assessment at this moment.
Directly confronting the beam released from the bronze mirror.
Black scales appeared.
A three-meter-tall shadow that looked identical to him emerged from his body surface, a phantom of a crouching Black Tiger Fish Demon with a tiger’s head, fish’s body, and snake’s tail.
"Boom!"
The phantom shattered.
A large patch of scales on Ye You’s chest fell off, but quickly grew back, jet black and shiny as if they could withstand the Divine Light Talisman.
"Ninety-nine points."
The assessor said with an unsightly expression.
Although he didn’t achieve a full score, Ye You couldn’t help but lift his chin and show a provocative gaze toward Qin Qianyu and Rajiv.
There was a chorus of boos from the stands.
"I’m next!"
Rajiv led the way.
Forming a seal with his hands.
A layer of golden light appeared on his body surface.
When the beam from the bronze mirror shot towards him, the golden light contracted inwardly; Rajiv let out a dull hum, and the seal in his hands scattered.
"Ninety-eight points."
The assessor said helplessly.
Rajiv’s expression was unpleasant, but that was already his strongest defense power.
The Red Crocodile Demon Bi Hai sneered and quickly approached the bronze mirror.
Red scales confronting the beam from the bronze mirror.
Everyone saw his scales rise like a set of blinds blowing in the wind, making a rustling sound, with blood flowing inside the scales.
Some of the power was being absorbed inside.
"Full score."
The assessor exclaimed in shock.
The stands fell into a dead silence, and everyone’s expressions were solemn.
Qin Qianyu immediately stepped forward.
Amidst the focused attention of all, he approached the bronze mirror, and a beam shot towards him. At that moment, he seemed to resonate with heaven and earth, his Dao Field opened widely, and the spirit pill hovered above the Dao Field.
The incoming beam seemed to be directly absorbed into his Dao Field.
His expression remained calm as he proactively looked towards the assessor.
The assessor looked at the data feedback from the bronze mirror, excitedly stood up, raised the score high, and shouted loudly, "Full score!"
"Oh oh!"
"Clap clap clap!"
Thunderous cheers erupted at the scene.
Whether they were dignitaries from the Great Xia Kingdom or royal nobility from the Divine Bull Country, everyone cheered for Qin Qianyu.
Zhang Ling Feng also applauded.
Qin Qianyu was naturally endowed with a spiritual root.
Even before the spiritual root awakened, the Dao Field had already taken shape. After the spiritual root’s awakening, the Dantian Sea of Qi naturally transitioned into the Dao Field.
His entire spiritual power fluctuation was harmonious and natural.
The Heaven and Earth Harmony Index could possibly exceed 30.0.
A while later it was Zhang Ling Feng’s turn.
By now, everyone’s attention was on Qin Qianyu and Rajiv, who were already measuring life force.
There weren’t many people paying attention to Zhang Ling Feng, which was just right for him to feel the strength of the beam released from the bronze mirror.
"Boom!"
The beam hit Zhang Ling Feng.
Zhang Ling Feng felt his spiritual power stirring, the Dao Field was jostling up and down, even his Sea of Consciousness was trembling slightly.
"Break the power balance."
"I see."
He suddenly understood the principle.
The beam released by the bronze mirror, like Destruction Mental Telekinesis and Divine Thought, could directly break the power balance nodes of everyone, even changing their power operation trajectory, allowing the internal power to rampage through their bodies.
Using the opponent’s power to tear them to pieces.
Of course, the bronze mirror was just used to test everyone’s defense power, and the beam released was not at that level.
Zhang Ling Feng felt he could easily resist this power to earn a full score.
But he held back.
Eventually, he achieved a score of ninety-three.
The fifth round was life force testing.
Life force was closely linked to spiritual power; the stronger the life force, the more refined the spiritual power. When injured, the easier it is to recover. In this respect, humans have always been inferior to Alien Demon Beasts.
Whether it was Bi Hai or Ye You, they commanded the biggest advantages.
Yamamoto Taro and Jin Chenchen both achieved scores of ninety-two, with life forces reaching 5.2 and 5.4.
Such life force could already resist the attacks of Divine Light Talismans.
Among human strongmen, they were considered excellent.
However, Ye You’s life force brought the scene to a dead silence.
9.1.
Higher than Jin Chenchen and Yamamoto Taro by nearly 4.0, such life force could simultaneously contend against multiple Divine Light Talismans, the South Heaven Gate Array, and the Golden Bull Array couldn’t possibly stop their progress.
Eventually, Ye You achieved a full score.
Rajiv followed and accepted the test; as a royal member of the Divine Bull Country, he had an array cultivation method for nurturing life force. His life force exceeded Jin Chenchen and Yamamoto Taro, reaching 6.8.
Although he also achieved a full score, he had a certain gap with Ye You.
If it came to a protracted battle, he couldn’t gain the upper hand.
Subsequently, it was Bi Hai’s turn.
As a Red Crocodile Demon, Bi Hai possessed inexhaustible reproductive ability, capable of regenerating a severed limb instantly, healing wounds in the blink of an eye.
Only by beheading him could he be successfully killed.
Soon people saw his life force, 9.7.
People fell into silence.
Only Elder Hou laughed heartily.
A 9.7 figure, even Qin Qianyu felt gloomy at this time.
As the most outstanding of the Qin family’s generation, Qin Qianyu bore heavy responsibilities, not only to achieve good results for the Great Xia Kingdom in the continental exams but also to complete the path that Qin Cangqiong had yet to finish, as a Star Gate Outer Disciple.
A super-grade spiritual root was his confidence in becoming a Star Gate Outer Disciple.
He only hadn’t anticipated that this continental exam would have Deep Sea Great Demons infiltrating the crowd, forcing him to prematurely reveal his trump card.
Now during the life force test, he confidently stepped in front of everyone.
8.3.
Even compared to Ye You, Qin Qianyu was 0.8 behind, 1.4 compared to Bi Hai.
Such a large gap.
Facing whether Ye You or Bi Hai, Qin Qianyu couldn’t afford to fall into a prolonged battle and needed to finish all fights before exhausting his life force.
And based on the current scores.
Qin Qianyu and Bi Hai were tied for first, Ye You second, Rajiv third.
According to the final round’s competition rules, even if the top ten were established, challenging others required advancing step by step, not allowing the tenth place to directly challenge the first or second place.
Remembering that one aim of participating in the continental exam this time was to help Qin Qianyu gain a chance to enter the Star Gate.
Now watching him team up with Rajiv fighting against Bi Hai and Ye You, Zhang Ling Feng couldn’t help but glance at the score.
He needed to achieve full score.
To come close to Rajiv, and obtain the fourth position, at the end, if Rajiv couldn’t handle Ye You, he could then help Qin Qianyu eliminate Ye You.
Otherwise, fighting from below would consume a lot of power.
Therefore, his life force must at least resemble Rajiv’s, reaching 6.8.
Such a score would be enough to awe everyone under normal circumstances, but at this moment, with everyone’s morale waning, Zhang Ling Feng found himself having the responsibility to support Qin Qianyu at the critical moment.
To ease the opponent’s pressure.
Thus, during the fifth round of life force testing, Zhang Ling Feng released most of his power.
His life force data was rapidly rolling.
Starting at 7.0.
The data soared all the way, finally freezing at 9.2, surpassing Qin Qianyu and Ye You, returning the scene to dead silence again.
Even Elder Hou was dumbfounded, Ye You and Bi Hai looked at him incredulously as if Zhang Ling Feng was one of their kind.
(Earlier regarding the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment, and Qin Qianyu’s explanations to the Star Gate old Sect Leader, some felt that the Sect Leader’s strength was too weak. I must remind everyone that it was Qin Qianyu speaking from his perspective, speaking in his tone as if a child discussing which adults have more money, it’s the same concept. It only represents Qin Qianyu’s knowledge at the time, not the absolute power setting of this book, nor the real strength of the old Sect Leader.)
