Chapter 82: Natural Spiritual Perception

King East River had high standards. Only when Meng Chuan, Zong Sha, and Ji Yuantong managed to survive six rounds of hail could they satisfy him.

“If they can survive six rounds, the three of them will definitely rank in the top ten,” the sloppy-looking man said via voice transmission. “Who do you think will be ranked first among the three?”

“Ji Yuantong gives me special vibes,” said the cyan-clothed woman. “My bets are on him.”

“I think most highly of him as well. His performance in the first two segments was pretty good. It also looked like it was easy for him to dodge the hail,” praised the sloppy man. “I don’t think he’s at his limit yet. However, Zong Sha and Meng Chuan aren’t to be dismissed as well. Zong Sha is a sharpshooter, so he has a limitless future. Meng Chuan is extremely fast. I believe he can live for a long time. There’s hope for everything if he has a long life.”

They were in a good mood seeing outstanding geniuses. Archean Mountain’s goal was to choose the most outstanding geniuses for grooming.

There are only three left. Ardor and zeal coursed through Meng Dajiang’s blood. Regardless of what happens, Meng Chuan will definitely be in the top three for the third segment. Meng Dajiang was already very satisfied.

After all, all the geniuses of the Great Zhou Dynasty were gathered here! What more could a father ask for, after seeing what his son had accomplished?

In his mind, the thought of his son coming first in the entrance examination at Archean Mountain—allowing him to be well-nurtured by Archean Mountain—surfaced. However, it was a fleeting thought. Firstly, he didn’t wish to put too much pressure on his son. Secondly, the natural treasures the geniuses from the ancient Godfiend family clans had consumed were in no way inferior to what they had given Meng Chuan. They also received the guidance of powerful Godfiends. Their training environments were much better than Meng Chuan’s.

It’s already very good. Meng Dajiang looked on happily, and his eyes moistened. I’ll be very satisfied if he can enter Archean Mountain.

Everyone stared at Meng Chuan, Zong Sha, and Ji Yuantong.

King East River smiled. Many hailstones floated in the air, and a number of them began to fall at even greater speeds.

Meng Chuan, Zong Sha, and Ji Yuantong were fully focused. Within their ten-foot-wide circles, they dodged the high-speed hail. The hailstones were virtually phantoms as they fell from 150 feet high. The distance was too short! The speed was too high!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Zong Sha was ordinary and unremarkable, but he was the strongest sharpshooter at the Archean Mountain entrance examination. He cultivated the Wind Divine Body. He could sense the “wind’s breathing.” With every incoming hailstone, he could discern their trajectories. He dodged them accordingly to what he had perceived! It was too difficult to detect the fast hailstones with the naked eye due to the short distance between them and the falling hail. He had to rely on his perception to dodge them.

Only then did he reach the seventh round. However, the hail had reached an even faster speed. He could sense the hailstones with the wind’s breathing, but the hailstones were too close to him by the time he could react.

He dodged five hailstones in a harrowing manner, but the sixth hailstone hit his abdomen before he could dodge it.

I still failed. Zong Sha sighed softly.

He was enveloped by an invisible force as he flew up. When he flew up, he looked in two directions. Meng Chuan and Ji Yuantong were still dodging.

Their movement styles were different. Meng Chuan moved agilely and naturally, while Ji Yuantong was dodging with his eyes closed.

In the blink of an eye, the seventh round ended. Zong Sha was eliminated, while Meng Chuan and Ji Yuantong survived.

What monsters. We only survived the fifth round. Meng Chuan and Ji Yuantong actually managed to survive the seventh round. Princess Li Ying was somewhat shocked. The hailstones were so fast that it made her heart tremble. However, the duo could still dodge them. Such reaction speeds were inconceivable.

That amazing? Chu Yong was silent. As the number one genius in the imperial capital, his name had been heard throughout the world seven years ago. He originally thought that he would dominate the test, but he never expected that he would be crushed in all aspects. He was clearly one level inferior to Meng Chuan and Ji Yuantong. When all aspects were considered, even Zong Sha was more outstanding than him. Zong Sha’s results in the second and third segments were even better than Chu Yong’s.

As for the first segment, although Chu Yong’s attacks were mighty, Zong Sha was a sharpshooter. His arrows were extremely fast, bringing his threat level to Ji Yuantong’s level.

Chu Yong knew that he should be ranked second. Yan Feng and Yan Jin were comparable to him.

There’s always someone stronger than you. Chu Yong’s heart was filled with complicated emotions.

I’m still so far from him. Yan Jin was very calm when he saw this scene. He had treated his father as his goal and had always felt the huge gap between them. His good friend, Meng Chuan, had suppressed him, and he had been chasing after him all this while! He chased after Meng Chuan and his father, King Calm Sea.

He had patience, and he would continue chasing after them.

“These two actually managed to come this far. They have very high spiritual perception.” The group of powerful Godfiends felt rather surprised.

“They aren’t even Godfiends yet, but their spiritual perception is so strong! It seems like they were born with extraordinary spiritual perception.”

“They are worth nurturing.”

These Marquis Godfiends—who usually guarded the Great Zhou Dynasty’s various states—watched Meng Chuan and Ji Yuantong with appreciation.

On the surface, the third segment of the preliminaries was a reaction speed test. However, what it truly tested was the geniuses’ spiritual perception! It was one of the most important qualities they tested for during the preliminaries, and it required King East River to preside over the third segment personally.

Meng Chuan and Ji Yuantong glanced at each other. The competition was between them now.

“In the eighth round, the two of you have to survive. The longer you survive, the better,” advised King East River. Following that, the icy hail in the sky rained down again.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Every hailstone was faster than the last.

Ji Yuantong—who was extremely confident—began to struggle. He closed his eyes, and his perception of his surroundings became clearer. He could vaguely sense the hailstones coming towards him.

He dodged through pure instinct. However, with the ever-increasing speed of the hailstones, he soon reached his limit.

Pu! A hailstone finally smashed into his shoulder. He failed to dodge it. When he opened his eyes, he was enveloped by an invisible force and began floating up. He saw Meng Chuan still dodging the hail crazily in the distance.

He’s better than me? Ji Yuantong frowned. He had had a supercilious attitude towards his peers since he was young. However, he wasn’t willing to flaunt his prowess. He had already crushed the so-called geniuses from Archean City long ago. When he had revealed a portion of his skill, he was deemed as Archean City’s number one genius. He didn’t take it to heart when the thirteen-year-old Yan Chitong comprehended Force. He believed that Yan Chitong wouldn’t be able to catch up to him.

After all, no one had ever managed to catch up to him. He kept becoming stronger because he wanted to shock everyone at the Archean Mountain entrance examination!

It was fine if he usually kept a low profile, but he had to display all his prowess at Archean Mountain’s entrance examination. Only then would Archean Mountain give him the best nurturing. However, he had never expected someone to surpass him in the second and third segments of the preliminaries.

Wu State’s Meng Chuan? It’s said that he’s part of a Godfiend family clan in a remote area of Wu State. As he thought about this, the hail stopped.

Meng Chuan—who was dressed in a navy blue robe and had a saber by his waist—continued standing in his circle silently.

He passed? Ji Yuantong landed on the ground and watched from afar.

“Meng Chuan passed the eighth round. He’s the only one!” Everyone watched.

“Chuan’er!” Meng Dajiang looked at Meng Chuan standing by his lonesome. Some distance away in front of Meng Chuan stood King East River.

This scene made Meng Dajiang extremely proud. That was his son!

“He managed to dodge all of that? His spiritual perception is extraordinary.”

“His natural spiritual perception is extremely high.”

The Godfiends also observed carefully. They were also very curious. Meng Chuan was the last man standing. How much longer could he last?

“Very good.” King East River smiled at Meng Chuan. “Hold on. The longer you can last, the better. I’ll begin the ninth round.”

“Yes.” Meng Chuan nodded.

He understood this logic. He had to use all his strength at the Archean Mountain entrance examination to showcase himself fully. The only exception was the glabella space—it was too unique. Even Fairy Meng—who had been a Godfiend for nearly eighty years and had a bunch of Godfiend friends while serving under King Calm Sea—had never heard of the glabella space. This both delighted and worried her.

It was either a fortuitous opportunity or a calamity. Therefore, he had to investigate the glabella space discretely before deciding if he wanted to announce its existence. Meng Chuan naturally listened to Fairy Meng. His grandaunt wouldn’t harm him.

Persevere. Persevere to the end. Meng Chuan’s Saber Force domain allowed him to sense the hailstones, likewise for his hundred-foot perception domain. His Saber Force domain gave blurry images, and his hundred-foot domain gave him an extremely clear view.

Dodge, duck! Meng Chuan dodged very gracefully. He had been following his training regime for a long time and was used to dodging.

As time passed, the spectating Godfiends’ expressions turned solemn.

“What?”

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The sloppy-looking man and the cyan-clothed woman arrived beside King East River.

“The ninth round hasn’t forced him to his limits yet,” said the cyan-clothed woman in surprise.

“Not at all.” King East River stared at Meng Chuan, his eyes shining.

“Is his spiritual perception that powerful?” The sloppy-looking man couldn’t believe it.

Phew, the hail stopped. Meng Chuan continued standing in his circle after surviving the ninth round of hail.

“Ji Yuantong only survived the seventh round, but Meng Chuan has already passed the ninth round!” The sloppy man couldn’t believe it. “Ji Yuantong is already very impressive. But he’s so much better than Ji Yuantong?”

“His spiritual perception is so sharp that it’s unbelievable,” said the cyan-clothed woman softly. “With such a strong spiritual perception, it shouldn’t be difficult for him to condense an Essence Soul in the future, right?”

King East River’s smile became even more radiant. He stared at Meng Chuan and said loudly, “Meng Chuan, continue to persevere. The longer you hold on, the better. I’ll begin the tenth round now.”

With that said, the hail began falling at high speeds—its speed rising to new heights once again.

The tenth round began!

Marquis Southcloud, Marquis West Sea, and the other Marquis Godfiends carefully watched Meng Chuan as though they were looking at a peerless treasure.
