Chapter 3787 Tangled Warfare

However, the only similarity between the core disciple test in the Hidden Fog Sect and the first test to qualify for the Flying Dragon Sect’s entrance examination was that they were both held in the abyss.

The core disciple test in the Hidden Fog Sect had obstacles in the abyss. They had to fight off enemies as they ascended. Moreover, as long as they were able to leave the abyss, no matter the number, they would pass the test.

On the other hand, the first test to qualify for the Flying Dragon Sect’s entrance examination did not have any obstacles in the abyss. One only had to leave the abyss. However, only the first 600 participants who left the abyss first would be considered to have passed the test. Those with fast speed naturally had an advantage. Those who were slower might even begin to fight among themselves to secure a spot in the top 600.

After 15 minutes, Yin Ping Yi announced the commencement of the test.

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, the participants at the bottom of the abyss began to make their moves.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

One after another figures soared up at lightning speed.

Duan Ling Tian, who had good eyesight, could see Du Po Jun among the dozen or so participants in the lead. The dozen or so people were comprised of those from lord-rank forces and those not from lord-rank forces. To his surprise, almost half of them were not from lord-rank forces.

‘I really didn’t expect there to be so many geniuses from non-lord-rank forces. All of them are, without exception, advanced Kings of Gods,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself.

Moreover, these people were not just ordinary advanced Kings of Gods. They were comparable to some of the elders of lord-rank forces.

Among these people, some of them were weaker than Du Po Jun, but since they comprehended the law of wind, their speed was very fast.

Apart from that, among the dozen or so people in the lead, there was also a member of the Linghu clan who was Linghu Ren Jie’s nephew. His name was Linghu Chong Xiao. Duan Ling Tian had met him a few times so they could be considered acquaintances. Based on what Duan Ling Tian knew, Linghu Chong Xiao would be turning 10,000 years old in about 100 years. Hence, this was Linghu Chong Xiao’s last chance to participate in the Flying Dragon Sect’s entrance examination.

“Huh?”

When Duan Ling Tian and the others thought Linghu Chong Xiao, Du Po Jun, and a few others would be the first to leave the abyss, there was a sudden turn of events.

Linghu Chong Xiao, Du Po Jun, and the others from lord-rank forces suddenly joined forces to fight several people who were not from lord-rank forces.

“What are they trying to do?” Duan Ling Tian was puzzled.

Soon enough, someone explained, “Those who’ve watched this before in the past won’t be surprised. This happens every time. Those from lord-rank forces will always unite to fight those who aren’t from lord-rank forces. Since the places are limited, they’re fighting so their peers from the lord-rank forces would be able to place in the top 600.”

With this, Duan Ling Tian finally understood what was going on. However, he did not think those from the lord-rank forces would be able to stop everyone. Moreover, among the dozen of people in the lead, the number of those not from lord-rank forces was not small.

The two groups began to struggle. It did not take long for the second group of people to arrive. With more people from the lord-rank forces now, Duan Ling Tian thought the fight seemed a little unfair. However, it did not take long before reinforcements for those who were not from lord-rank forces arrived. They began to target the weaker participants from the lord-rank forces. With this, many of the weaker participants from lord-rank forces were injured and had no choice but to descend and heal their injuries.

When Du Po Jun and Linghu Chong Xiao rushed down to help their peers, it was already too late. Moreover, the duo was also attacked.

The fight became messier and messier, and more people got injured. In the end, it became a competition of strength.

No matter who they were, as long as they tried to fly up, they would be stopped. It was as though they would not stop fighting until the number of people left was more or less the number of places that had been allocated.

They continued to fight and look for an opportunity to leave the abyss. The weak were helpless since they were injured. Hence, the strong from both sides fought while those with average strength tried to leave the abyss. This was the same for both sides.

“How intense.” Duan Ling Tian sighed at the scene in front of him. Then, he looked at Linghu Zheng Xing and asked curiously, “Supreme Elder Zheng Xing, will the same thing happen in the other two rounds as well?”

Linghu Zheng Xing nodded. “Yes.” Then, he smiled as he continued to say, “Duan Ling Tian, the Linghu clan is relying on you to pass the round for the under-5,000-years-old age group. If you’re capable, it’d be good if you can help those from the Linghu clan and the Murong clan. With that, the Murong clan will owe you and the Linghu clan a favor.”

Upon hearing this, Duan Ling Tian smiled bitterly. “Supreme Elder Zheng Xing, you think too highly of me. However, I’ll try my best to help them.”

Duan Ling Tian glanced at the injured participant at the bottom of the abyss and knew they would fail to join the Flying Dragon Sect. They could not even join the Flying Dragon Sect as outer disciples due to their age.

Only those below the age of 5,000 years old were allowed to participate in the examination to become outer disciples of the Flying Dragon Sect, after all.

The people in the first and second age groups who failed the qualifying test would not be able to join the Flying Dragon Sect’s outer disciples.

“What a surprise. There are actually those who are gods who dare to fish in troubled waters.”

It did not take long for Duan Ling Tian to notice a group of gods, who were not from lord-rank forces, trying to take advantage of the situation to leave the abyss. Alas, unsurprisingly, many of them were injured during their attempts except for a few who were protected.

“I really don’t know what those gods are thinking? Even if they were lucky enough to pass the qualifying test, how are they going to pass the entrance examination later? Moreover, there are several rounds of tests for the entrance examination…” someone from the Linghu clan said.

Following that, many people began to laugh at the gods who had participated in the Flying Dragon Sect’s qualifying test.

As time passed, there were fewer and fewer people who were uninjured in the abyss.

At this time, one of the participants said, “It’s useless to keep fighting now. There are only a few places left.”

The other participants instinctively looked around. After confirming there were fewer than 600 people left, they stopped fighting. Then, one after another, they flew up.

As they flewup, these people who were just fighting a moment ago began to chat among themselves as they flew.

“My dear, you were too ruthless earlier! You almost sever my arm!”

“Aren’t you the same? If I didn’t manage to avoid your attack earlier, I would’ve lost an ear!”

“Isn’t it just an ear? You can easily regrow it with a Divine Pill.”

“The same can be said for you. You can easily regrow your arm!”

In the Realms of Gods, there were many Divine Pills that could regrow bones and flesh. As long as it was not too extreme, one could easily regenerate one’s limbs. If one’s heart was pierced, one could even take Divine Pills to heal the injuries to the heart.

For this reason, to ensure someone’s death, it was best to destroy their soul or crush them until they were nothing but a mist of blood.

After a while, more than 500 people rushed out of the abyss under everyone’s watchful eyes.

There were some who helped the injured out of the abyss. These people were mostly from lord-rank forces.

The few people not from lord-rank forces, who helped the injured out, were the fastest and among the few who flew side by side with Du Po Jun and Linghu Chong Xiao.

“It’s no use even if you help him pass the qualifying test,” Linghu Chong Xiao, who was helping an injured member of the Linghu clan, said to a middle-aged man, “He’ll have to rely on himself later during the entrance examination. It’s impossible for an advanced god like him to pass the exam.”

“I know,” the middle-aged man replied. He was one of the participants not from a lord-rank force who had comprehended the law of wind. His speed was comparable to those of Linghu Chong Xiao and Du Po Jun. Then, he said with a smile, “Didn’t you ask me to bring one person with me earlier? However, apart from my brother, I don’t know anyone else. There were a few from king-rank forces who asked for my help earlier, but the rewards they offered were not tempting at all. Moreover, it’s better to help my brother.”

Upon hearing this, Linghu Chong Xiao no longer said anything. With this, the first round of the qualifying test to become inner disciples of the Flying Dragon Sect finally ended.
