Chapter 135 Divergent

The majority of these registrants were astonished .

A seventy-five percent elimination? That was too much, wasn’t it?! In other words, amongst the more than thirty thousand people present, less than eight thousand of them could pa.s.s! The rest would all be eliminated?

A chill descended over them . Although they had heard that the Xuantian Monastery’s disciple selection was extremely harsh, they had never thought it had reached such a level .

Although the majority of people were shocked and worried, the stronger ones only indifferently smiled . They had the self-confidence to pa.s.s this trial .

The Xuantian Monastery truly was ruthless enough . Just from the start of the trial, everyone could already tell how cruel the compet.i.tion was in the monastery .

“Each one of you has a jade tile with one of four words on them: Tian, Di, Xuan, Huang . Once you enter the area for the trial, you’ll need to collect all four of them in order to pa.s.s .

“As for how you collect them, there’s no need to dance around it . I trust everyone here is smart enough to know how to gather them,” lightly said senior apprentice-brother Wan .

“Is this a mistake? Isn’t this just you guys playing us like we’re monkeys? You want us to ma.s.sacre ourselves? That’s not fair!”

Someone angrily shouted out . That person came from a small power . There he was counted as someone with both power and respect . He would never receive such treatment there .

But once he had come here, he had seen far too many powerful figures . He had realized that he was merely an existence that could only pad the bottom rankings .

Now he learned the trial was a huge fight and scramble between everyone . With his power, he didn’t have the slightest hope of pa.s.sing, and so he indignantly shouted out that it wasn’t fair .

“Fair? Does this world have anything that is fair? You spoiled disciples, you’ve all been given the best resources and medicinal pills to cultivate . You even had experts temper and cleanse your bodies . Is that fair to those martial artists who are born poor and desolate?

“Remember, within the Xuantian Monastery, there is no fairness . Even the monastery’s rules favor the powerful .

“This is a river of struggle . If you have the capability, then swim to the front . And if you don’t, then just obediently lie under other people’s feet .

“If you have no skill and you also don’t want to feel wronged, then just get lost . The Xuantian Monastery has limited resources and doesn’t raise trash,” icily shouted senior apprentice-brother Wan .

Long Chen nodded . His words were completely correct . If a sect wanted to grow, it required powerful disciples to mature . Those cannon fodders were just wasting resources, slowing down the sect’s development .

Although his words were difficult to accept, it was an indisputable fact that there was never anything known as fairness within this world . These spoiled young masters who had only known peace and comfort within their families were unable to understand the cruelness of reality .

“Hey, if you don’t have any skill then just f.u.c.k off . But before you leave, hand over your jade tile to me,” disdainfully said another registrant, perhaps hoping to gain a slight advantage .

“f.u.c.k, I won’t hand it over to a b.a.s.t.a.r.d like you,” angrily raged that person . How would it possible for him to obediently hand over his jade tile?

“Ok, then just wait for me . Once I find you we’ll see if you still have the same resolution . ” The other one also wasn’t some tolerant person .

“Quiet!” icily shouted senior apprentice-brother Wan . They both shut up .

“In any case, I hope you properly take care of your jade tile . There are only a total of 7963 sets . If you feel like you have no hope, you can always destroy your jade tile or throw it into a ditch .

“If you can’t advance, then you can at least make it so that three others are also unable to advance with you . Although that doesn’t benefit you in the slightest, it’ll at least count as venting some anger,” said senior apprentice-brother Wan .

Quite a few people’s eyes brightened as they thought, Haha, what a good idea . If I have no hope then you guys can also give up any thoughts of advancing either .

Long Chen couldn’t help shaking his head . This senior apprentice-brother Wan really was pitiless .

But he understood that the Xuantian Monastery’s selection of disciples was not an ordinary level of difficulty . But the more it was like this, the stronger the disciples that remained would become . They would become the best existences to groom . The important thing was to make sure he was one of them .

“Guo Ran, are you confident?” Long Chen wasn’t worried about himself . But he did feel that perhaps Guo Ran was a bit too weak for this .

Although he had perceptive eyes, no matter how he looked at him, he didn’t seem like an expert . After the start of the trial, everything would rely on strength .

“Don’t worry boss . I’ve long since made my preparations . ” When he saw that no one was looking at him, his worried expression disappeared .

“Oh? You have a plan?”

“Hehe, I won’t hide it from boss . I didn’t just gather all that information for no nothing .

“Amongst the many medicinal pills I gathered, there are several which others would do anything for . There are many people who are about to wash out here . As long as I use my glib tongue, I can easily persuade them to exchange their tile for medicinal pills . ” Guo Ran laughed confidently .

Even that was accepted? Long Chen really hadn’t imagined there was such a method . But with the high wash-out rate, Guo Ran’s method truly might be effective .

“What if someone comes to fight with you over the tiles?” suddenly asked Long Chen . According to what senior-apprentice Wan had just said, these tiles couldn’t be placed into spatial rings . If they were, the word on top of them would disappear which would equal failure .

“Hehe, boss, don’t worry . I’ve long since made preparations . I was just acting just now for others . I’ve already prepared all my escape plans .

“But on the other hand, I’m worried for you . Although the trial zone is extremely enormous, there’s still an off-chance you might run into Qi Xin .
