38 Conflict 3

Rows upon rows of people waited outside the examination point, the reason why so many people joined Celestial Cloud Sect was due to the fact that the other two sects had entrance exams less often than Celestial Cloud Sect and if they were to wait until then, they would be past the age limit.

Celestial Cloud Sect held exams every half a year which was significantly more frequent compared to the other two sects which held them once every 2 years.

A stunning girl with amethyst eyes accompanied by two other beautiful girls walked through the crowd, others instinctively gave way to admire their beauty as if that if they were to be in the picture they would wreck the perfect image.

However, their masks prevented others to see the full extent of their beauty.

Zi Hua wasn't worried about others recognizing her since in this era there was no internet so news and information often traveled slowly and incorrectly.

The testing process was simple, you just had to show what level of cultivation you are at, then that's it.

Other sects go through a stricter process but it was much simpler here, that was another reason why others chose Celestial Cloud Sect: they had more chances of getting in.

You just get on the stage then show your cultivation, then they say whether you pass or fail, if you pass you become an outer disciple and you can only ascend the hierarchy through break-throughs in the sect or during tournaments.

Of course, there are rare cases where a genius appears and gets admitted straight into the sect as an inner or even core disciple.

Although they had exams often, there were still as many people that came each time, after all it was a first rate power, tons of people would want to go try out their luck even if they didn't meet the criteria, there have been those cases where they didn't meet the requirement but still passed.

To minimize the time it takes, people are sent onto the stage in groups of dozens, when it was the three ladies' turn, all eyes were intensely staring at them.

"Release your aura" A person's aura can show their cultivation level, the stronger the aura, the stronger the cultivator.

4 flashes of strong aura reverberated throughout the stage, overpowering the weak auras of the other 8 examinees who were merely at Qi Gathering and had their backs covered in cold sweat.

The audience stared at them in amazement.

"High Stage Martial Spirits!" Someone amidst the crowd identified their levels and shouted out in surprise.

Three 19/20 year old High Stage Martial Spirits! They would be a genius among geniuses even in the three first rate sects but what really surprised everyone was the 14/15 year old High Stage Martial Spirit, that was simply heaven defying!

They'll probably go insane if they knew Zi Hua and co's true level.

"Do we pass?" Gardenia opened her mouth and questioned the examiner, breaking him out of his trance.

"Huh? Ah, please let me verify your bone ages once again" Something like this would be an absolute blessing if true but firstly he must check that it's not some 50 year old hag.

After checking it several times, their bones ages fit the requirement, bone ages couldn't be faked so he announced the obvious result.

"The four of you pass!" The examiner was absolutely ecstatic, his position in the sect could rise for finding these four geniuses, especially the 14 year old girl.

They weren't worried about them being spies since what organization would be willing to leave these geniuses to another organization.

Someone led them away and gave them a luxurious lodging, much more lavish than all the other disciples.
