CHAPTER 1000: CHAPTER 995: ASSESSMENT RESULTS

An hour passed.

Originally, there were over one million family disciples registered for the examination on the Death Plain, but half of them had disappeared! In just one hour!

All corners of the Death Plain were an extreme scene of carnage, filled with screams, shouts, and even the indignant roars of those on the verge of death.

The ground became even bloodier.

Sticky and red.

Demon beasts continued to spill out from the space gate above the Blood River, more and more.

The elders of the Barbarian God Sect, who were overseeing the situation, watched the brutal scene below with indifferent expressions.

After slapping away a demon beast that pounced towards him, Huang Xiaolong shook his head as he watched the family disciples around him fall one by one. Whether it was the Lower Realm or the Divine World, it was the same—survival of the fittest.

Anywhere, only with overwhelming strength can one live on.

Two hours passed.

The original half of the family disciples on the Death Plain reduced by another half, leaving only a quarter.

Most of the remaining quarter of the family disciples possessed Divine-level Tenth Rank Late Stage strength.

However, under the endless onslaught of demon beasts, these family disciples continued to decrease.

By the halfway point of the day, only about ten percent remained.

This ten percent—over a hundred thousand family disciples—were scattered in different corners of the Death Plain.

While the number of demon beasts increased continuously.

Seeing the increasing number of demon beasts and more family disciples falling into the despair of death, fear, and panic.

Not far from Huang Xiaolong, Zhu Wanchen wielded a longsword, weaving through the demon beasts. With each swing, a demon beast fell, his long hair flowing, exuding an air of calm and confidence.

The elders of the Barbarian God Sect who were overseeing the examination couldn’t help but nod in admiration upon seeing this.

As Zhu Wanchen navigated through the demon beasts, he noticed Huang Xiaolong in the distance, and when he saw Huang Xiaolong effortlessly dispatching the approaching demon beasts with each gesture or blow, he couldn’t help but let out a cold sneer.

Although the power displayed by Huang Xiaolong surprised him, he did not care much.

With his talent, he would soon break through to the Heavenly God Realm. By then, Huang Xiaolong would only be able to look up to him.

Moreover, the distance between him and Huang Xiaolong would only grow.

At this moment, Huang Xiaolong looked over, meeting Zhu Wanchen’s gaze.

Seeing Zhu Wanchen’s sharp Sword Qi, Huang Xiaolong remained indifferent, regretting that the examination rules forbid the family disciples from attacking each other, or else!

A day passed.

Only about a thousand family disciples remained, most of whom were already injured, some lightly, others heavily.

At this time, many family disciples gathered in groups seeking mutual protection.

Due to Zhu Wanchen’s strength, many family disciples followed him.

Seeing Huang Xiaolong’s astounding power, many family disciples also moved closer to him.

Huang Xiaolong did not reject the family disciples who approached him seeking protection, but he also did not go out of his way to help them. Whether they could last until the end depended on their own strength.

Nearly two days.

Finally, a hundred family disciples remained on the Death Plain.

The elders of the Barbarian God Sect overseeing the examination closed the space gate above the Blood River and swiftly eliminated the remaining demon beasts, then led Huang Xiaolong, Zhu Wanchen, and others out of the Death Plain to a Great Hall.

Huang Xiaoming, an elder of the Barbarian God Sect, looked at Huang Xiaolong and the others with satisfaction, nodding as he said: "Congratulations to all of you for passing our Barbarian God Sect’s disciple examination. From now on, you are disciples of the Barbarian God Sect!"

As Huang Xiaoming’s voice fell, the passing family disciples couldn’t help but celebrate.

Huang Xiaolong merely smiled nonchalantly.

"Alright, now, hand in your registration Jade Talismans. We will tally the results of this examination ranking," another female elder of the Barbarian God Sect, Jiang Yan, announced.

Inside the Death Plain, the number of demon beasts killed by Huang Xiaolong and others would be recorded on their Jade Talismans.

The rankings are based on the number of demon beasts killed, with the top ten in the examination receiving additional rewards from the Barbarian God Sect.

Hearing this, Zhu Wanchen stepped forward first to hand in his Jade Talisman.

Elder Jiang Yan scanned it with her Divine Sense and, surprised, glanced at Zhu Wanchen, announcing: "Killed demon beasts, sixty-three thousand two hundred and fifteen!"

The disciples in the Great Hall couldn’t help but gasp in shock, looking at Zhu Wanchen with disbelief.

Over sixty-three thousand!

In previous examinations of the Barbarian God Sect, the top score was usually only forty to fifty thousand! It had been many sessions since someone exceeded fifty thousand.

Like the last session, it was said the top family disciple only killed over forty-one thousand!

The other Barbarian God Sect elders, hearing this result, also looked amazed.

"It seems there’s no doubt Zhu Wanchen will be first in this examination!"

"With his top-level Godhood and such talent, he’s rare even across the Wanxiang Divine Plane. Claiming first in an examination is very normal!"

After recovering from their shock, some family disciples couldn’t help but discuss, filled with envy and awe.

Zhu Wanchen basked in satisfaction at the discussions among the surrounding family disciples.

"Next!" After a while, Elder Jiang Yan called for the next disciple.

A family disciple stepped forward to hand in his Jade Talisman.

"Killed demon beasts, twenty-six thousand five hundred and twelve," Elder Jiang Yan, after a Divine Sense scan, announced.

Generally, those who passed the examination killed around twenty thousand demon beasts, so this family’s disciple’s result was unsurprising to most.

Following this, family disciple after family disciple handed in their Jade Talismans for result tallying.

After results from over ninety family disciples were tallied, Zhu Wanchen remained in first place, with a female disciple named Liu Bing in second, with over forty-two thousand.

By this time, everyone had assumed Zhu Wanchen was first for sure.

Then a few more family disciples handed in their Jade Talismans, with demon beasts killed ranging between twenty to thirty thousand.

Finally, with only three left, Huang Xiaolong stepped forward to hand in his Jade Talisman.

Elder Jiang Yan took Huang Xiaolong’s Jade Talisman without much thought, but after a Divine Sense scan, she paused, her lips slightly parted in disbelief.

Seeing this, the family disciples couldn’t help but feel curious.

Elder Huang Xiaoming frowned and approached Jiang Yan, "Elder Jiang Yan, what happened?"

Jiang Yan didn’t respond verbally but handed Huang Xiaolong’s Jade Talisman over. Huang Xiaoming, puzzled, took it, and after a scan with his Divine Sense, was also stunned, looking from the Jade Talisman to Huang Xiaolong.

Other elders, witnessing the scene, also stepped forward.

"Sixty-three thousand two hundred and sixteen?!" an elder couldn’t help but exclaim.

"What? Sixty-three thousand two hundred and sixteen?!"

"How is that possible! Who is he? He killed more demon beasts than Zhu Wanchen! And it’s too coincidental, just one more!"

The surrounding disciples were in an uproar, shocked, and in disbelief.

Hearing this, Zhu Wanchen looked displeased, shouting, "Impossible, there must be an issue with his Jade Talisman, he tampered with it, yes, that must be it!"
