Chapter 347 One of a Kind Part 2 of 3
After the tests for the lightning and wind essences, ca elemental had stepped back, the water eleedthe participants of the inco attack like the other two elementals had done, he quietly waved his hand, and forced the hus to condense around the bodies of the cultivators in blue robes, as well as those in white robes with blue stripes
The purpose of this test was not for the cultivators to avoid drowning, as their brains would be able to survive without oxygen for years at their current level of cultivation The true test consisted in surviving what came next
The water of which these spheres of water were an to seep into the pores and orifices of the participant's bodies, threatening to fill their lungs, and even try to replace their blood
The appearance of this sphere of water was so sudden, that ht by surprise, had used rushedtheir bodies Some pushed it back with their im their sking scorching hot thanks to fire essence, and some even allowed for their immortal cultivation to come out of their bodies in the form of clay, or other substances that could keep their bodies isolated from the water
Of all of the seven elements, the test for the selection of the inheritors of water was considered to be the one with the highest in shock value, but also the one with the easiest solution That had been shown by the few cultivators that had , had created a crystalized layer around their bodies, or turned the whole sphere of water into a large sphere of ice
Similarly to the other tests, only around ten participants had remained after it had concluded, and once the test was over, these ten were either teleported out of the arena, or into the area that belonged to the water elee the white robed cultivators, as well as the aspiring inheritors of the essences that had yet to be tested
Once these three elementals finished their tests, the wind elereen robes took a step forward, and said, ”Those who haven't been tested yet, come back tomorrow” She then turned to look at the area that contained the inheritors of wind, and walked in their direction
Roley believed to have passed all three of the tests, but since he was applying for seven of the day as well However, before he could leave, Roley noticed that the eyes of all three of the elementals had, at some point, moved on him They then turned back towards their inheritors, and left with the participants went back to their teachers, where the students that had failed the previous three tests were already waiting
”I think it went better than expected” Said the wo with the dean, had accompanied Roley and the students of the manor to the event Of their institute, only one student per element had been selected while the rest would have to keep practicing, and try again five years later
”Is there so that you have learned today?” Asked the dean of their institute while looking back and forth from the students that had failed the test, and the ones that would have to be tested the next day
When his students had failed, they had asked him and the other two teachers why they hadn't been selected In their eyes, they had done as asked of them, and their solutions were, at times, even more effective when compared to those of a few others who had passed However, the teachers were forbidden fro why they had failed
What they were allowed to do instead, was to make their students talk to each other If lucky, one of theht answer to this question
”The test is total crap!” said a young reen clothes He had tried to beat the test of wind essence by opening a spatial portal that could stand in between hiust of wind, and since he believed to have solved the problereat shock to him
The teacher in red clothes looked at this student in light green clothes with disappointment, then turned towards the others, and asked, ”Is there anyone that would like to point out why he failed?” Her eyes unconsciously went towards Roley, as sitting with his legs crossed above a stone wall a few nored by hiht! They told us to survive, and that is e did!” Said a student in light blue clothes with indignation He had tried to pass the water test by clogging his own pores with his own i through
A girl in green clothes chimed in, and said, ”You two are idiots What are your eyes for? The ones that passed were those who used the same type of essence to protect themselves” She too had made the same mistake as the previous two, but at least, she understood what she had done wrong Nevertheless, when she turned to look at the teacher in hope to receive a nod of approval, she realized that, while not being co
Once again, the teachers looked at Roley, but instead of staying quiet, the dean asked him, ”Do you knohat the point of the test was, Roley?”
After being asked directly, Roley turned to look back at the old man and opened his mouth to respond, however, before he could say a word, one of the other students interjected by saying, ”Dean, why ask him? Of all of us he is probably the only one that has no chance of passing any of the tests to begin with Why would he be here with us otherwise?”
”I agree, it's impossible that somebody like him could have reached a level of affinity required to even understand the test Not while studying so reen clothes with clear disdain
”Quiet!” Said the woain to look at Roley with hopefulness Unfortunately, these young students had already said enough to irritate Roley, who instead of responding, turned away and feigned ignorance
While it was not allowed for the teachers to reveal what the tests were about, nothing prohibited a student fro it to his companions
The whole reason for the three teachers to ask for Roley's explanation, was so that he could explain the rules of the test to the other students, and allow the their own tests However, while the teachers had big hopes for Roley, his peers were not the same To them, he was still allowed to be tested because he had mastered all seven essences, and in their minds, there was no doubt that he had failed the first three
While the rest discussed about what could possibly be e came into the ears of Roley's friend in the form of a wisp of sound essence What this voice said, was, ”The test is based on the idea that, one day, ill be one with the tested essences Defend yourself from the attacks as if the essence would be unable to hurt you”
