"Hmph..."
Dai Mubai glared at the pair of young man and woman not far away. How dare they provoke him? He was the examiner for the fourth test, and he was definitely going to make them suffer later.
Let them know how strong he was.
Of course, he also hoped they could pass the first three tests.
Otherwise, he wouldn't get the chance to torment them.
"You can go in by yourself!"
Dai Mubai said to Tang San.
"You're really rude!"
Tang San glared at him, then turned around and left.
"These newcomers are getting more arrogant by the day. Just wait, I'll knock that arrogance right out of you!"
Dai Mubai snorted. After all, he still hadn't vented his Bald Rage yet.
Especially when he saw that couple — his anger flared even more intensely.
Soon it was the cold and aloof girl's turn. Dai Mubai's eyes widened as he stared at her. She was exactly the kind of woman he wanted to marry — he felt that being together would complement their strengths and even double their power.
That cold girl had her hand squeezed lightly, then was asked to release her martial spirit — it turned out to be the Netherworld Spirit Cat.
Dai Mubai frowned when he saw it.
Wasn't that the exclusive martial spirit of the Zhu Clan of Star Luo Empire?How did it appear here?Could this be fate?
Dai Mubai was speechless.
Then it was finally the young man and woman's turn.
Dai Mubai watched seriously.
"Ding! Dialogue Modification Mission Triggered."
[Old Man: The registration fee is ten gold soul coins.] — Two words can be modified.
Zhang Fan activated his will and changed the words "ten" to "gifted thousand".
"Ding! Dialogue modification successful. Plot rating: average. Reward: 30 modification points."
The old man lazily said, "The registration fee comes with a gift of a thousand gold soul coins."
Then, he took out all the coins from the registration box, found it wasn't enough, so he pulled out all the coins from his own pockets and placed them into a basin.
Handed them over to Zhang Fan.
"Uh..." Everyone else was dumbfounded.
Even Dai Mubai was stunned.
"Teacher, what are you doing? Why are you giving him all the registration fees?"
Baldy Bai looked completely confused.
"What do you know? I feel this young man is a genius! I must give him a thousand gold soul coins, or he won't agree to take the test!"
The old man said seriously.
Dai Mubai was left blinking in confusion.
"..." He was speechless. What kind of crazy episode was this teacher having? He had nothing to say. This kid really was abnormal.
Zhang Fan calmly put the thousand gold soul coins into his storage space.
"Then will you give me a thousand gold soul coins?"
Xiao Wu asked curiously.
"What kind of dream are you having? Put down ten gold soul coins!" The old man replied sternly.
"Hmph!"
Xiao Wu rolled her eyes and obediently placed down ten gold soul coins.
The others didn't dare argue either — after all, the old man was clearly powerful.
Xiao Wu stretched out her delicate white hand. The old man reached out his wrinkled hand and pinched it a few times:
"Age verified. Release your martial spirit!"
Xiao Wu's body shimmered — two furry bunny ears popped up on her head, her figure grew taller and more shapely, her skin became even whiter and more delicate.
"Not bad, not bad!"
The old man praised twice in a row, then looked over at Zhang Fan:
"Your turn — hold out your hand."
Zhang Fan lifted his hand. The old man pinched it and nodded:
"Age verified. Summon your martial spirit."
"Buzz..." A flash of purple light appeared, and the Heavenly Rotten Sword appeared in his hand.
"Such a broken martial spirit can even be cultivated? This thing is even weirder than Tang San's plant chicken! No wonder he's the one I singled out — one in ten thousand talent."
The old man stared speechlessly. "Today's little monsters are getting weirder and weirder... Go on in."
"Uh..."
Dai Mubai looked totally confused. He had assumed that kid's martial spirit would be extremely powerful, especially since the guy had blown him away with just one claw earlier.
He never expected it to be such a trash martial spirit.
All the new students today were strange — two had trash martial spirits.But their soul power and age passed the tests. They were clearly special.
Dai Mubai watched as the pair walked forward together.
His expression darkened, and he followed them.
"Hey there!"
Dai Mubai smiled slightly. "I'm Dai Mubai..."
"I'm Xiao Wu — 'Wu' as in dancing." Xiao Wu hopped along next to Zhang Fan like a happy little sprite.
"I wasn't asking you!" Dai Mubai shot her a glare and looked at Zhang Fan.
"I don't want to answer you!" Zhang Fan retorted without hesitation after seeing how Dai Mubai treated Xiao Wu.
"You've got guts..." Dai Mubai was fuming and walked away angrily.
Ahead of them walked a cold beauty in a black short skirt, her long black hair flowing down to her perky butt.
"Hi there!" Xiao Wu ran over happily.
"Hello..." The cold beauty replied curtly.
"I'm Xiao Wu... and this is Zhang Fan. Nice to meet you!"
Xiao Wu stopped in front of Zhu Zhuqing.
"You've got a great figure!"
"You're too kind. I'm Zhu Zhuqing." A slight blush flashed across her face. She didn't expect Xiao Wu to be so talkative.
"Nice to meet you!"
She looked at Xiao Wu, then at Zhang Fan, and was momentarily stunned.
This Zhang Fan was really handsome — much better than that dumb-looking bald Dai Mubai who had been staring at her earlier.
She looked at Baldy Bai with nothing but disdain.
"Sausages for sale! Not tasty? No need to pay!"
A bearded man wheeled over a sausage cart nearby.
"Would you three like a sausage?" He asked enthusiastically, smiling at them.
"Uncle, really? If it tastes bad, it's free?" Xiao Wu blinked her big, sparkly eyes.
"Yeah! But who are you calling 'uncle'? I'm not that old!" Oscar shot a grumpy look at the cute little girl.
"You look so old! What, should I call you 'little bro' instead?"
Xiao Wu rolled her eyes and grabbed a sausage. "Hmm... Not tasty! Guess I don't have to pay, huh?"
"Ugh..."
Oscar was speechless. How could this little girl be like this?
But then he saw a beautiful girl in a white dress nearby — smiling gently like spring sunshine — and got completely distracted. He didn't bother arguing with Xiao Wu anymore.
"You can try one now. If you like it, come buy again later. But no lying!"
"Okay!" Xiao Wu nodded.
"Alright, the second part of the test is about to begin."
A teacher walked over:
"In the second test, we'll evaluate your soul power and martial spirit potential. Having high soul power alone isn't enough — we also look at development potential and cultivation direction. Only those who pass can move on to the third test."
After finishing, the teacher looked around at everyone.
One by one, the tests began.
A girl in a white dress pressed her hand on the crystal — a bright light shone.
"Very good. Soul power over level 25. You may skip to the third test!"
The teacher announced.
Soon, it was Tang San's turn.
He stepped forward and placed his hand on the crystal.
He activated his Xuan Tian Technique.
A bright blue light flashed.
"Wow! Twelve years old, level 29 soul power? Little monster indeed! Let's see your soul rings."
The teacher exclaimed.
"Alright!" Tang San nodded and focused. Yellow light lit up under his feet — two yellow soul rings rose up.
"A 400-year and a 600-year soul ring... Excellent!"
The teacher was thrilled. "You can directly proceed to the fourth test — no need for the rest."
