《*DISCONTINUED*》Chapter 11 : Geniuses!
Advertisement
"Sigh..." Most cultivators were thinking at the moment, they didn't manage to pass. Currently only two people remained on the side that wasn't recommended by a Sect. Both were guys, one unexpectedly lit up a ball with azure colour while the other one lit up a green coloured one.
It seems to be that there was unexpectedly a talented youth unnoticed by a Sect.
One the side of disciples recommended by a Sect a lot more people remained. This was normal after all, usually youths with talent get recommended by a Sect, while others just want to try their luck. It usually ended up in failure, but not always does it end in failure. Those two boys who were at the other side currently passed the first test, so there might be a chance. Especially for the boy that lit up an azure coloured ball.
Swoosh!
The ranking list lit up! The ranking list was now changing! Time to see who the real geniuses are! The names now were appearing.
Swoosh!
Naturally Feng Xing recognized the first name immediately, it was Xiao Ling.
Xiao Ling : Heaven Defying Genius!
The list stated.
"Well, this was to be expected.. there aren't many geniuses in this continent that can compare to her after all."
Only in Dragon Continent could there be possible people who could match up to her.
Swoosh!
The names were rapidly appearing, all the way up to the 87th place. Feng Xing now realized that he actually recognized another name in the top 10...
3rd place...
Rou Xue : Genius Among True Geniuses!
"It must be because of her unique bloodline." Feng Xing nodded, this was a little bit out of his expectations, but it was close enough. Rou Xue would pass while being atleast in the top 20, this was his prediction, but he underestimated her a bit.
Feng Xing was now looking for his name, he immediately found it in the top 20.
"17th place, not bad. It seems to be that there quite a few people ranked above me. Not a bad patch of geniuses." Feng Xing smiled, he wondered how all these geniuses would face against eachother later and against him.
Feng Xing : True Genius.
Xiao Ling and Rou Xue saw his place, but seemed indifferent about it.
"Hmm, it seems to be that he atleast has a bit of talent.. but that doesn't matter for the next tests!" Rou Xue sneered, she still wasn't worried about the bet.
Since all names have appeared, they all waited for Ling Fong to speak.

"All who aren't in the top 40 may leave."
Yet again 37 people were immediately eliminated, but on the side where two youths once were on. Now only one remained, he was ranked higher than Feng Xing actually. At the 15th place.
Shu Li : True Genius!
More people were now paying attention to him, he was the only one left on that side after all. The rest were all on the other side. He was one of the people Feng Xing paid attention to.
"What bloodlust, for such a young youth.." Feng Xing saw through the stern looking youth immediately, he felt intense bloodlust coming from him. Feng Xing wondered what this youth experienced, it wasn't normal for a young youth like that to have such bloodlust. Only people who have killed countless people could have such an aura. Unfortunately eventhough the youth concealed it with his stern face, Feng Xing was more experienced in these kind of things.
"Interesting..." Feng Xing was still smiling, he didn't care if someone was bloodthirsty at all. It wasn't his business, as long as he doesn't get in his way.
Suddenly the youth noticed a stare and looked directly at Feng Xing. Their eyes were now locked on to each other. The staring battle has begun...
The youth couldn't see through Feng Xing, while he felt exposed. This was the first time he felt like this.
"That guy..." The youths stern expression became more dark and cold, but immediately supressed it.
Feng Xing suddenly chuckled at this sight, irritating the youth even more.
Feng Xing then looked away, he was more interested in another person... it was the only youth other than Rou Xue that was a Genius Among True Geniuses, on the second place.
Song Jiang : Genius Among True Geniuses
This youth was also only 15 years old just like Feng Xing , Xiao Ling and Rou Xue. He was very handsome and had a noble air. You could call him every girls dream boyfriend, but at this moment he seemed to be looking at Xiao Ling in a daze.
"Sigh.. she attracts to much trouble." Feng Xing sighed, having a disciple that naturally attracts trouble was troublesome for him.
"Well, it doesn't matter for now." Feng Xing naturally accepted everything thrown at him, so it didn't bother him to much except that it was a bit troublesome.
"The second test will be testing your comprehension ability! I have a high tier Tempering Path skill here, which I will show you all in a second. Your rank depends on how fast you comprehend the first level!"

Many youths were shocked! They now had a chance to look at a high tier Tempering Path skill! Some youths here didn't even have a chance to look at them in their own Sects, so they were ecstatic currently. Especially Shu Li, one who didn't even enter a Sect. Most youths here were at the Tempering Path realm, and he also was only at the 8th rank of the Tempering Path. So a high tier Tempering Path skill in his eyes was a huge treasure.
Immediately Ling Fong send an imprint from the first level of the skill in the minds of everyone. Everyone closed their eyes to comprehend it.
"When light shines upon you, you will have passed! Time limit is 30 minutes!" Ling Fong seemed to calculate a bit, he found 30 minutes a good time limit since it wasn't a particularly hard skill to comprehend, but as soon as he said that... light suddenly descended!
The ranking list once again reset, and lit up. A new name appeared on the number one spot!
"WHAT!?" Ling Fong seemed to be flabbergasted! This comprehension speed! There was one word to describe it : Inhuman!
Ling Fong seemed to be now looking at the spot where light shone upon, currently a youth was sitting there. It was none other than Feng Xing who was still smiling, which gave others a feeling of being unable to see through him.
"Hehe, comprehension ability? Who in this world can match up to me." Feng Xing also wanted to have a high ranking in the end so he didn't hold back at all.
"That youth! His comprehension ability is even better than the Sect Master!" Ling Fong was now going to pay more attention to him...
A few minutes later light shone upon Xiao Ling, it was like light shining upon a goddess. She opened her eyes, she was sure she was first since one of her special forts was comprehension, but then saw the ranking list... one person was better than her in comprehension ability. It was Feng Xing...
She suddenly looked at Feng Xing only to discover that he was staring at her while smiling...
"You're not simple at all..." She wondered who Feng Xing was... he gave her a weird feeling.
Quickly the 30 minutes passed. A few people couldn't even comprehend it... they obviously knew they wouldn't pass.. so they left. Only 34 people remain, and the ranking list was now complete. From first all the way to 34th.
Shu Li, Xiao Ling, Rou Xue and that playboy Shi Lian were all bound to pass since they were in the top 20. Only Rou Xue was a bit worried now...
"1st place, Feng Xing... don't tell me he's actually going to pass! No this won't happen!" She consoled herself. Suddenly a young boy came. Rou Xue immediately had an ugly expression after discovering who it was.
"Feng Xing... your luck has been pretty good I guess hahaha..." She awkwardly laughed.
"Luck? Hmm, I see.. luck is also a factor in comprehending skills. You sure have weird thoughts hehe." Feng Xing was still smiling, his expression hasn't changed yet.
"About that bet.. make sure to be a good maid when I order you ahaha.." Feng Xing said.
Rou Xue's face immediately turned red from anger.
"Who said you will pass! Don't get to cocky." Rou Xue rebuked.
"Ahahaha, We'll see." Feng Xing seemed to not mind such attitude, and left to walk to Xiao Ling.
"I believe there is only one test left. After we get in the Sect stay close to me." Feng Xing nonchalantly said to Xiao Ling who seemed to be surprised. She seemed to have misunderstood him.
Feng Xing noticed this and immediately said : "As my disciple ofcourse... not romantically."
"...Alright." She answered.
"Those who aren't in the top 20 leave!" Once again 14 people got eliminated. It was time for the final test.
"There will be one last test! Both sides come together." Ling Fong ordered.
Now Shi Li was also in the group of recommended disciples. People felt disdain for him, but didn't show it.
"The final test will test your battle sense. It's simple."
This was a thing most disciples currently lacked, battle experience.. couldn't be cultivated after all.
"Once again I'll send an imprint to your minds. There will be 10 choices you can choose from, only one is right."
Suddenly all the disciples saw a scene play through in their heads. A tiger was attacking a man, what should the man do?
10 Choices appeared...
1. Leave and run from it.
2. Battle it fiercely.
3..................................
5 minutes later.
They all made a choice, it was time to show who passed and who didn't. The ranking list once again lit up, but one thing still didn't change. The number one spot was still Feng Xing!
