Chapter 69: Core Disciples Assessment

Su Chen flipped his palm, and a long sword with a cold glint appeared in his hand.
Without any hesitation, he slashed at the other arm.
The sound of clashing weapons rang out.
Su Chen raised his left hand and looked at it. He found that there was only a white mark on his arm, and it was rapidly fading.
“Unbelievable!”
Su Chen exclaimed as he looked at his arm.
He didn’t use his spiritual power just now and relied on the defense capability of his physical body to endure this stroke.
“Now, even if I stand still, I’m afraid that very few people of the same realm can break through my defense.”
He did not use his full strength in that sword attack just now.
Even so, it was still comparable to the full-force strike of a weaker Level Five Qi Sea Realm cultivator!
After all, he had an earth-level middle-rank body refining cultivation method, the Mystic Spirit Golden Body Art, and a body fortified by the Black Blood Stones.
“It’s still not enough to just have a strong defense. The main thing should be the recovery speed!”
Su Chen recalled the terrifying ability of the dark creatures to revive after being severely injured.
He gritted his teeth and exerted a little more strength in his hand, continuing to slash at his left hand.
With a snap, the long sword in his hand instantly broke into two.
Fortunately, at the last critical moment, the longsword completed its mission.
A two-inch-long wound was left on Su Chen’s left hand.
However, before blood could flow out of the wound, it healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In just three breaths of time, his left hand had recovered.
Su Chon looked at his arm, but he couldn’t find any traces.
“I should have the ability to regrow limbs, right?”
Su Chen speculated in his heart.
He wanted to continue testing it, but after thinking about it carefully for a moment, he gave up the idea.
If he could really regrow the severed limbs, he of course would be happy.
But if he couldn’t, then crying would be of no use.
Losing an arm would not just decrease his strength!
“It’s time to cultivate the Heavenly Divergence Divine Art.”
Su Chen muttered.
Then, he waved his sleeve lightly, and a strong wind swept past. The Black Blood Stone powder in the room was instantly cleared out of the room.
Then…
He took out the Heavenly Divergence Divine Art from his storage ring and prepared to study it.
However, just as he was about to start his research, there was a knock on the door outside the courtyard.
“Junior Brother Jiang Tian, requesting to see Senior Brother Su Chen!”
“Hmm? Jiang Tian?”
Hearing this, Su Chen frowned slightly. After thinking about it carefully, he did not seem to have any impression of this person.
He put away the Heavenly Divergence Divine Art and stood up to come to the front of the courtyard.
Outside the door.
Jiang Tian, who was wearing the uniform of an inner sect disciple, quickly bowed respectfully when he saw Su Chen.
“Junior Brother Jiang Tian greets Senior Brother Su Chen!”
“There’s no need to be so polite.”
Su Chen waved his hand lightly and looked at him indifferently. “Junior Brother, what is it you want to see me about?”
“1 am here on Elder Fan’s orders. Firstly, I’m here to give Senior Brother the reward for slaying the demons! Secondly, I want to inform Senior Brother that today is the day to register as a core disciple. Please don’t miss the time.”
While speaking, Jiang Tian took out a storage ring from his robe and handed it to Su Chen respectfully.
“Thank you for coming personally, Junior Brother.”
Su Chen took the storage ring and said with a smile.
At the same time, he squeezed out a drop of blood essence to make the ring recognize him as its owner. Then, he glanced at the inside of the storage ring.
There were only more than 1,000 high-grade spirit stones and 3 bottles of pills inside.
Just as Su Chen had expected, the main reward was the earth-level middle-rank cultivation method and martial art.
This little reward was just a token of sympathy.
“This is what I should do.”
Jiang Tian said respectfully.
He looked at Su Chen with reverence and thought to himself, “Senior Brother Su Chen is indeed like others said, gentle and easygoing, and has unparalleled charm!”
In the past half a month, Su Chen had been immersed in cultivation.
And the Great Mystery Sect had been seething with excitement for half a month all because of him!
After the battle with the dark creatures half a month ago, many inner sect disciples had become Su Chen’s hardcore fans. Countless disciples worshipped him as a god!
Jiang Tian was no exception.
Although he did not personally witness what happened half a month ago, he was influenced by the other disciples and was naturally assimilated by them.
Su Chen was very clear about this.
In this short half a month, he had broken through three levels in a row and reached the seventh level of the Qi Sea Realm!
And his breakthrough of three levels was achieved after many disciples bragged about him.
“Senior Brother, do you want to sign up for the core disciples assessment?”
Jiang Tian asked respectfully.
When Su Chon heard this, he pondered for a moment before nodding. “That’s exactly what I was thinking!”
Becoming a core disciple was different from becoming an inner disciple.
There were two ways to become an inner disciple.
The first was to participate in the outer sect trial.
The second was to advance to the Qi Sea Realm!
However, it was not so easy to become a core disciple.
The core disciples assessment required a competition, and there was only one chance every year. If they missed this year, they would have to wait for the next year.
And no matter how many people signed up, only the top three could become core disciples.
It could be said that it was the most intensively competitive to become a core disciple in the Great Mystery Sect
This was because inner disciples would not be expelled from the sect. Many people would choose to participate in the core disciple assessment after they were strong enough.
Under normal circumstances, a disciple at the seventh level of the Qi Sea Realm had a high chance of becoming a core disciple.
However, since there was intense competition, the threshold of the seventh level of the Qi Sea Realm was pushed up to the eighth level, or even the ninth level!
Even if one was at the eighth or ninth level of the Qi Sea Realm, it was still not safe for them to become a core disciple.
In the end, it still depended on the strength of the people who signed up every year.
There might be several inner disciples at the eighth or ninth level of the Qi Sea Realm who would sign up together in a year.
It was also possible that there would not be a single inner disciple at the eighth or ninth level of the Qi Sea Realm in a year.
This year.
According to what Su Chen knew, there were a few other inner disciples who were at the eighth or ninth level of the Qi Sea Realm.
After all, when he met the dark creatures, he clearly remembered that two Level Nine Qi Sea Realm inner disciples were captured and tied to a pillar.
If nothing unexpected happened, those two would be his opponents this year.
However, Su Chen was not worried at all.
He was at the seventh level of the Qi Sea Realm, there shouldn’t be any inner disciples who could defeat him.
“Senior Brother, follow me. I’ll take you to the registration place!”
Jiang Tian’s eyes lit up and he quickly said.
“Then I’ll have to trouble Junior Brother to lead the way.”
Su Chen gently nodded and extended his hand forward..
