Once again, the arena was filled with howls of pain after the one hundred young men consumed the Body Transforming Dan.

"Endure it! If you can't even withstand this baptism, then you're unworthy to become top experts!" Jiu Shen said in a strict voice as he observed them with a cold look. In fact, this Body Transforming Dan was supposed to be consumed together with the 9th-rank Pain Subduing Pill, a healing pill that could remove any painful feeling that a person has. Aside from removing pain, it could also accelerate the healing process of someone.

The reason why Jiu Shen didn't give them a Pain Subduing Pill was because he wanted to give them a final test since only those with strong willpower could survive his hellish training procedure.

After hearing Jiu Shen's words, all of them immediately shut their mouths as they gritted their teeth with contorted looks. They felt as if there were millions of ants gnawing their internal organs. The faces of the youths were covered with sweat and protruding veins as they clenched their fists so hard that their nails already pierced deeply on their skins.

The Body Transforming Dan would change the structure of one's physical constitution upon consumption, but whoever consumes it would experience excruciating pain for a period of time until the transformation of one's body is completed.

"All of you are low-born slaves with no talent to boast about, but with the help of the pill you just consumed, it isn't an exaggeration to say that your talents would exceed even the renowned geniuses of the Profound Dragon Continent. So you have to endure this pain if you want to become dragons among humans!" Jiu Shen said as he took out a chair from his space earring. He then sat down and put one of his legs on top of the other, looking nonchalant and calm. After that, a young lady with long purple hair suddenly appeared behind him and gave his shoulder a massage. This was none other than the dragon lady, Long Meili.

Jiu Shen didn't mind this kind of contact, and he seemed to be unbothered by it as he continued to watch the young men with a satisfied look.

Yang Zenke, Han Sen, and everyone's eyes lit up when they heard Jiu Shen's words. They finally realized how precious the pill that Jiu Shen had just given them. It was actually able to change someone's physical constitution and talent! What a heaven-defying pill!

Yang Zenke closed his eyes as he focused himself on refining the efficacy of the Body Transforming Dan. 'This is the start! I can finally become an expert! This pain is nothing! Argh!' He shouted in his heart.

It was not just him, Han Sen and the other youths also closed their eyes and sat cross-legged to refine the pill's efficacy.

Looking at this, Jiu Shen was quite satisfied that none of them passed out from the pain. Even the young elites of the Primordial God Realm could hardly do this without the help of the Pain Subduing Pill.

After thirty minutes or so, Yang Zenke opened his eyes fiercely and he abruptly rose to his feet. He cracked his head sideways while clenching his fists tightly with a joyful smile on his face. "Initial stage of the 3rd-rank Crusader realm! Hahaha!"

One after another, the other youths also stood up with happy smiles. All of them had broken through! Even the weakest among them was already at the peak stage of the 1st-rank Warrior realm!

Jiu Shen who was seated on his chair smiled as he looked at them. These young men didn't let him down. All of them were able to refine the full efficacy of the Body Transforming Dan without passing out! With this kind of achievement, they would surely be nurtured with care by any supreme powers in the Primordial God Realm.

Jiu Shen slowly stood up from his seat, while Long Meili also took a step back. She remained silent all day since she didn't want to disturb Jiu Shen.

"Since all of you have already practiced your sword techniques for the past month, what you need right now is practical training. Later, I will bring all of you somewhere to test everything that you've learned, but first, divide yourself into groups of ten." Jiu Shen ordered coldly.

Yang Zenke and the others hurriedly grouped themselves into ten different groups after hearing Jiu Shen's command. They were quite excited about the practical training that he spoke about and they could not even conceal the excitement on their faces.

After seeing that they had already divided into ten groups, Jiu Shen opened the Spirit World through the World Heart that was embedded on his left wrist.

Om!

Yang Zenke and the other youths were stunned when they saw a two-meter tall door suddenly appearing out of thin air.

"What is that thing?"

"Just shut up and wait for the master's orders!"

Jiu Shen pushed the wooden door open, making everyone see a different world behind the door. "Follow me inside. Remember, no one must know anything about this!" Jiu Shen said with a serious look. The existence of the Spirit World was one of Jiu Shen's most closely guarded secrets, and he didn't want anyone else to know about it other than his most trusted subordinates. Although no one in Nuar could identify it, the same could not be said in the Primordial God Realm, so he had to be cautious about this.

Yang Zenke and the others felt the gravity in Jiu Shen's tone, so they immediately nodded their heads to express their understanding.

"Yes, master!"

"Yes, master!"

Jiu Shen wanted to let them experience bloodshed, but since they only had less than two weeks before the start of the competition, he didn't have the time to bring them into the lairs of bandits, so he could only bring them to the Spirit World to fight with the savage beasts living within.

He will leave them for ten days in the Spirit World and he would only save them if they are already close to death. They had to experience countless life and death situations to become full-fledged experts!

"What a beautiful place! Is this a paradise?"

"Indeed! The true essence in the atmosphere of this place is many times denser than in the beast fighting arena. This place is a cultivation holy land!"

The youths exclaimed one by one after arriving inside the Spirit World. They have been locked inside the training facilities of the imperial family for all their lives, so they haven't seen anything as beautiful as the Spirit World.

"Save your breaths! I will bring every one of you into the dens of countless savage beasts! You must survive for ten days! You will hunt for food on your own, and your strategies will depend on what your groups would decide!" Jiu Shen said calmly, but his words made everyone's hearts turn cold. This was the first time that they would be sent into the wildlands, so they felt a bit nervous in their hearts. However, they didn't want to disappoint Jiu Shen who had given them the chance to become top experts, so in order to repay his kindness, they vowed in their hearts that they would survive this training!
