It was packed with people and many people had set up tents there. It seemed like they had been here for a while.
Even Qinchuan and the others weren't too late. There were still about ten days before the real test.
This was the mountain gate, outside the main gate of Celestial Qilin Divine Institute.
There were so many people, no less than a few thousand. No wonder it was said that this world didn't lack geniuses. The people here could be said to be geniuses. At this moment, they were in groups of three to five and many of them were alone. Everyone occupied a place. There were many people, but they were all very quiet. This was the entrance of Celestial Qilin Divine Institute.
Qinchuan and the others also found a place to stay temporarily.
This was outside the main gate, so there were naturally many disciples of Celestial Qilin Divine Institute coming in and out. These people passed by and looked at this place with a deep sense of superiority in their eyes. This was because more than 90% of these people would be eliminated. Even if they entered Celestial Qilin Divine Institute, they would only be bullied by them.
The surrounding people looked at the disciples that were entering and exiting with eyes filled with envy. They hoped to be able to enter the Celestial Qilin Divine Institute, stand out, and become an absolute powerhouse. At that time, they would have everything they wanted, stand out, be respected, and be accompanied by beauties …
The long ten days passed very quickly. On this day, a group of people came out of Celestial Qilin Divine Institute. The leader was an old man. The people below all stood up and bowed to these people.
Qinchuan sized up the old man in front. He couldn't see through his strength. There was a faint halo around his body and he was incomparably shocked. As for the middle-aged men behind him, there were even a few youths. All of them were above the fifth stage of Human King.
"Celestial Qilin Divine Institute's once-in-a-decade disciple recruitment is about to begin. The first round is to test one's aptitude. Everyone, follow me."
The group followed the old man and walked through the main gate of Celestial Qilin Divine Institute.
Turning left, there were ten enormous crystal pillars. There were ten stars in the crystal pillars, all of which were dark in color.
Qinchuan recalled the time when he was in Jiuling Sect. At that time, they also tested their aptitude. Now, he didn't know how many stars his aptitude was.
When the test started, Qinchuan's horizons were broadened. Basically, there were no lower than eight stars. This was Spirit Realm, and there were geniuses from every place.
"Look, it's a perfect ten star aptitude!" Someone exclaimed.
Among the people who had taken the test before, there were a few people with nine and a half stars, but this was the only one with ten stars. Moreover, the gap between ten stars and nine and a half stars was incomparably huge. Moreover, the difference between nine and a half stars could not be made up with heavenly treasures and other things.
This 10-star tester was a monk, a young monk who wore an extremely luxurious robe. His skin was like jade, and his features were extremely handsome. His body was filled with spiritual energy and a buddha light.
In the future, he would definitely enter the inner sect. The Celestial Qilin Divine Institution didn't directly enter the inner sect.
Here, those with aptitude below eight stars would be directly eliminated. As expected of a super large sect.
Everyone knew the rules, so basically, those who came were all eight-star and above.
This time, Qinchuan did not activate his physique, which was an eight-and-a-half-star innate talent.
Tai Tan had nine and a half stars, which was already very good. As for the Third Prince, he had nine stars.
"Another ten star aptitude, moreover a beauty, truly beautiful!" Someone cried out in alarm.
"Don't think too much about it. With such a beauty, how can the inner sect disciples split her evenly?"
Qinchuan looked at the girl. She was indeed very beautiful, but she was filled with arrogance. Her background shouldn't be low.
"How many ten-star aptitudes has this been? Four, right?"
"I thought my nine-and-a-half-star innate talent was not bad. Comparisons are really infuriating."
Soon, the test was over. Only a few people were eliminated. Next was the second test. This was a long flight of stone steps that led to a shrine. The old man said straightforwardly, "Do your best to rush up. The top 100 will stay. The rest will be eliminated."
Qinchuan smiled when he saw this.
This was the Heaven Staircase.
There was heaven's might suppressing it. This was a test of one's comprehension or comprehension of the Heaven Dao. Some people had good talent but lacked comprehension. Such people would starve to death even if they guarded a mountain of gold. Sometimes, talent didn't mean anything. Talent, comprehension, physique, opportunities, etc, were all incomparably important.
Qinchuan's Yin Yang Dao was at the peak and he was at the third stage. Moreover, there was heaven's might. Even Heaven Region Lord Supremes could resist some of it.
So, Qinchuan walked with ease.
Many people charged upwards, but after 10 steps, a portion of them seemed to be stuck in mud and couldn't move forward.
After 20 steps, half of them stopped.
Qinchuan walked up calmly. That handsome monk and that ten-star girl were really relaxed. They walked at the front while Tai Tan and the Third Prince were beside Qinchuan.
Tai Tan found it tough. Beads of sweat appeared on the Third Prince's forehead.
There were still 300 people ahead. After another 10 steps, another 150 people stopped. At this moment, Tai Tan and the Third Prince were close to their limits.
After a few more steps, there were exactly 100 people ahead. However, Tai Tan and the Third Prince were already at their limits.
Just at this moment, the three fellows in front of Qinchuan turned and smiled at Qinchuan and the other two. "I'm sorry, I only exceeded you by a little."
"Right, sometimes we just lack that little bit of luck. Luck is also strength." Another person was drenched but he felt really good.
"What is there to say to those three idiots? They were eliminated. 10 years later, we will leave them far behind. They won't be able to catch up to us for the rest of their lives." The 98th person was filled with disdain. He panted as he looked at Qinchuan and the other two in disdain.
Tai Tan and the Third Prince were so furious that their bodies trembled. But it was really hard to take another step forward. Every step they took caused their bones to crack.
"It's useless. If you take another step, your bones will break and you will die. Risking your life is useless. Strength, do you understand? If risking your life is useful, then just do it. Why do you need strength?" The 98th person looked at Tai Tan and the Third Prince in disdain.
Qinchuan shook his head. These fellows were really annoying. With a thought, he gave Tai Tan and the Third Prince the Seven Flower God Position.
Shua!
The two of them felt much more relaxed. They looked towards Qinchuan in confusion.
"Let's go!" Qinchuan led the way up.
Tai Tan and the Third Prince passed the three of them. At this moment, their bodies felt really good. They had never felt so good before. Not only could they make those three disgusting fellows vomit blood, but they could also enter the Celestial Qilin God Academy. Most importantly, those three fellows couldn't enter the Celestial Qilin God Academy.
But they knew that this was all thanks to Qinchuan's help.
After passing the three of them, the time was up. The top 100 remained.
Those who could comprehend the Heavenly Dao and comprehend it naturally had high comprehension abilities. So this stage was a test of comprehension. If one's talent and comprehension passed, they basically had the right to become an outer sect disciple.
100 people would be recruited every 10 years.
After the number was confirmed, the three people who were passed by Qinchuan and the other two nearly spat out blood. They stood behind Qinchuan and the other two and were just a step away. Moreover, the three of them were confident that they could climb a few more steps. But the three of them were too arrogant and forgot that the time was up. Before this, Qinchuan and the other two were too quick and instantly passed them.
