Chapter 180 Ten Thousand Beast Essence Blood
Three days’ time pa.s.sed quickly . By the time the third day was over, everyone’s spirits had already recovered .
After that life and death experience, after a tempering of blood and fire, the brilliance within this group of spoiled disciples had finally begun to blossom .
Although they couldn’t be said to have already unsheathed their sharp airs, at the very least they were no longer a group of trash . They already had the embryonic air of experts .
Thousands of disciples had gathered in the Xuantian plaza . This huge plaza that was hundreds of miles wide was bustling with noise .
At the center of the plaza was a huge sculpture hundreds of meters tall . That sculpture was of a man with a longsword in his hand . He pointed up to the heavens with a will that wished to destroy the world .
That statue was said to the be Xuantian Dao Sect’s ancestral founder . However this statue seemed as if it had already existed here before the Xuantian Monastery had even been established . After the erosion of time, it was already somewhat broken down . But that disdainful will hadn’t changed in the slightest .
Below that huge statue were hundreds of green-robed disciples that were frantically bustling .
There were men and women amongst them, but the majority were women . They were currently nervously sticking some small syringes into the arms of the disciples . After taking out a drop of blood and putting it into metal container, they also recorded the name, gender, age, and other information about that disciple .
At the fringe of the plaza were two youths sitting below a large tree . One of them was squinting at that sculpture .
After staring for a while, he asked the other, “Guo Ran, are you sure we should go up last?”
Guo Rang confidently said, “Trust me boss, according to my information, those people collecting blood are all newbies who just joined the sect .
“Letting them collect blood is a trial for them . At the beginning they’ll all poke you several times with those needles before finally getting a drop of essence blood .
“If you don’t believe me, just look at how nervous they are . Even their hands are trembling . Trust me boss, I can’t possibly be wrong . ”
Long Chen truly did see those people were extremely nervous . But wasn’t it just to take out a drop of blood? There was no need for them to be like this .
However, to give Guo Ran face, Long Chen didn’t say anything . The two of them just stared up at that statue .
He didn’t know why, but looking at this statue, it almost felt as if this statue was alive . Although that kind of thinking was laughable, he was sure he felt it . That feeling was extremely mysterious .
“Ok boss, it’s time . Almost everyone’s gone, so we can go now too . ”
The time had flown by without him knowing as he stared at the statue . Almost everyone had finished .
Long Chen nodded . Previously there had been many people, including Lei Qianshang and Qi Xin . He also saw a couple very powerful fellows .
He had agreed to Guo Ran’s suggestions also because he didn’t want to run into those fellows . As soon as they saw Long Chen they would start wildly sneer and bark at him like a dog .
Long Chen felt there was no need to disgrace himself by exchanging insults with them . He didn’t want to be mocked by the people of the other four areas .
But he had secretly observed that there really were many powerful figures appearing . Their auras were shocking, not at all inferior to Lei Qianshang and them .
Just now Lei Qianshang had almost gotten into a fight with another core disciple . The both of them were extremely arrogant and had disdainfully looked down on the other, creating sparks .
But unfortunately, just as those sparks were about to explode, they were shooed off by the senior disciples in charge of this place .
Those disciples were actually familiar to Long Chen . One of them was that grave senior apprentice-brother Wan he had seen at the beginning .
Guo Ran and Long Chen walked up now that everyone had left, so senior apprentice-brother Wan just happened to see Long Chen .
He nodded to him, “Not bad . I heard everything about what happened in the trial . ”
“Hehe, didn’t I end up failing in the end? Don’t tease junior disciple like this . Sorry we came late . The inspections aren’t over yet, right?” laughed Long Chen .
Long Chen’s gut told him this senior apprentice-brother Wan was an old-fas.h.i.+oned person who wouldn’t casually laugh at others . That kind of person was extremely upright, causing others to easily form good opinions of him .
“You’re not late . I still have some work to do so I’ll be going . ” Senior apprentice-brother Wan turned and left, but before he did, a strange light flashed in his eyes .
Long Chen immediately felt something was off . Looking at the place to register, he saw there were over a dozen maidens that were red from being scolded by their senior apprentice-sister .
He had no idea what they were doing . One of the people in charge of the registration was just boringly playing with her brush .
“Sorry to trouble you, but we came late . Can we still register?” politely said Guo Ran .
That person turned to look at Long Chen and Guo Ran, her expression filled with absolute delight, looking as if they had just saved her live . She excitedly called out to the people behind her, “Those of you who haven’t finished the trial, quickly come! There’s two more people here . ”
