How big is the Nether Sect? You guys only came in through one of the sixteen doors, so it's not that big of a deal.

When the middle-aged man brought Qin Shaojie and the others over to the Profound Earth Ranking Monument, they saw that there were already dozens of youths of extremely similar age standing under ten times the size. All of these youths, along with Li Mu and the others, had expressions of reverence and caution on their faces;

The middle-aged man was not surprised in the slightest, and quickly explained to Qin Shaojie and the rest. Hearing that, Li Mu and the rest also had bitter smiles on their faces. It seems that they still underestimated the strength of the Nether Sect and overestimated their own statuses. Initially, they had thought that only the five of them had entered the final exam and had always been complacent. However, who knew that there would probably be close to a hundred people now.

These people were all standing respectfully in front of the Profound Earth Ranking Monument, but it was just as the middle-aged man had said. Different student recruitment teachers were in charge of leading the teams, and every team consisted of three to five people, with a total of sixteen doors.

No one knew how many disciples there were in the Nether Sect, as long as they met the requirements. Therefore, what you guys shouldn't care about is this. It's better to first obtain the approval of this stone tablet and then try to increase your ranking as much as possible in the future. You will understand how important these profound strength value are to you in the future.

The middle-aged man continued speaking to them. After which, he brought Wang Yuanhong and the others and walked towards the giant stone tablet where the Profound Earth Ranking was. He greeted the other student recruitment instructors, evidently, they were familiar with each other.

After he walked to the stone tablet, a rich ancient aura poured out and wrapped everyone within it. Under this aura, everyone felt extremely insignificant in front of the stone tablet. The halo that surrounded them in the past also did not have any effect at this moment.

Everyone looked around them unnoticeably. Although nearly a hundred people hid their auras, they were still able to sense the strong points of the two parties around them. They had previously heard that in the Nether Sect, one must remain humble and cautious, because there was no lack of geniuses.

Didn't they say that the Profound Earth Ranking had the names of the top thousand ranked students? Why did it look like there was nothing at all? As his gaze fell on the stone tablet, Qin Shaojie frowned slightly. The stone tablet looked to be extremely smooth, and even after experiencing so many years of wind and rain, it still did not show any cracks. It was just that Qin Shaojie did not see any name on the stone tablet that seemed to be exuding an ancient aura, and he was immediately a little suspicious.

Hmph, even though you have yet to obtain the approval of the stone tablet, you are already delusional enough to want to see the contents within. How is this possible? This stone tablet was meant to pick out people.

On one hand, the two parties' dynasties were not on the same level, and that kind of contempt was already present in their bones. Most importantly, Qin Shaojie had stolen the limelight from Wang Yuanhong in the first round, and a mere Five psycho was actually able to pass through those astral winds. Although he had barely made it through in the last second, it had still attracted the attention of the middle-aged man and the other three, and he had seized away his glory all the time.

In Wang Yuanhong's eyes, Qin Shaojie was just an aboriginal who didn't know anything.

Qin Shaojie nodded his head seriously, only now did he remember what the middle-aged man from before said, that the most important thing for him to do was to obtain the acknowledgement of the stone tablet, and become a disciple of the Nether Sect.

Attention all, one by one, they lined up and poured a drop of their own blood onto the stone tablet, and then poured the profound energy in their bodies into it. The moment the stone tablet flickered, it means that you have received the acknowledgement of the stone tablet, and will become an honorary disciple of Nether Sect! If your profound strength value reaches three thousand in one year, then you can directly become an official disciple of the Nether Sect!

At this moment, a student recruitment instructor also spoke to the hundred or so people with a deep voice. They were all outstanding disciples from various large empires, and some were even from the Seven Tattooed Soul s and the Eight psycho s. For this day, everyone had long been anticipating it, as long as they could become a disciple of the Nether Sect, it would mean that they would be able to achieve great things in the future. They would definitely be able to accomplish something on the road of martial arts!

Then, what if the stone monument didn't flicker?

At this moment, a somewhat timid voice slowly rang out. Looking around, it was a rather skinny boy. This boy's aura was currently quite unstable. Clearly, he had suffered a great injury while passing the checkpoint yesterday and had yet to recover even now.

It seemed that he was also worried about whether the stone tablet would acknowledge him or not.

Since he had already reached this step, it would be too much of a pity if he did not pass the approval of the stone tablet and lose the chance to become Nether Sect's disciple.

Many people looked over this question. After all, even the most confident person was worried that something bad would happen. How could they accept such a failure?

If the monolith does not flicker, it means that you have not been acknowledged. However, this kind of thing only happened when one's talent was insufficient or if one's own strength was insufficient. Thus, it wouldn't be too much of a problem if most of the disciples came here entirely through one's own ability.

However, those disciples with low talent and insufficient strength who relied on pills to forcefully increase their cultivation had to be eliminated as well.

Another student recruitment teacher also explained. After all, in order to pass the trial and become an honorary disciple of the Nether Sect within the last few years, some people did not hesitate to lose their blood essence, swallow a medicinal pellet, and even used their lifespan as a price. Their goal was to forcefully enter this place to raise their cultivation realm, but unfortunately, all of their plans ended up in vain.

Even these student recruitment instructors did not know how long this stone tablet had existed for, but they were certain that this stone tablet had never made any wrong predictions. Those youths who were unable to touch the stone monolith were finally verified to be simply ineligible.

Seeing that many of the youths present had serious expressions, many of the instructors also sighed. It seemed that there was someone who had used a method that he should not have used this time round. But after thinking about it, it made sense. After all, the allure of the Nether Sect s made it impossible for them to truly resist it.

Was there really no other way?

Seemingly unwilling to give up, the disciple continued to ask. For the sake of coming to the Nether Sect, their family had spent too much energy. If they failed and returned, it would be a huge blow to their family, and even his own heart of martial arts would be shrouded in shadow.

It wasn't that there was no way, as long as there was no absolute. If one didn't get the approval of the stone tablet, then there was another way to stay and become an honorary disciple. That was to challenge the top 800 disciples on the stone tablet and win.

Once the challenge is successful, not only will you become an honorary disciple of the Nether Sect, but your name will also appear on this Profound Earth Ranking, which is a great honor. Of course, the most important thing is that you can already obtain the profound strength value. As long as you keep your position on the Profound Earth Ranking, then it is certain that you will become Nether Sect's disciple.

The student recruitment instructor from Qin Shaojie also explained. If you cannot get the approval of the stone tablet, then you can prove yourself with your power. In Nether Sect, as long as you have enough power, you have the right to speak.

This was not only happening in the Nether Sect, it was also happening everywhere in the Nine Domains!

Profound Earth Ranking, top eight hundred?

The faces of the youths who had some understanding of Nether Sect darkened. This kind of success rate was impossible. One had to know that being able to enter the Profound Earth Ranking was already quite impressive. Not only the students this year, but also the names of the students within three years.

In three years, how many disciples would Nether Sect accept? Thousands or tens of thousands? They didn't know.

However, what was certain was that the disciples above the Profound Earth Ranking were all extremely powerful. Those who were here were probably at least at the Spirit Sea Realm. It was rumored that the top five hundred ranks of the Profound Earth Ranking were all experts above Earth Origin Stage.

As for the first three areas, they could only be described as monstrous.

If he wanted to challenge the top eight hundred, it would mean that he would need to be at least at the Spirit Sea Realm and have enough skills. Otherwise, there wouldn't be any chance of winning.

You, how much confidence do you have to pass this stage?

Seeing that, Li Mu also asked Qin Shaojie quietly, they knew, that Qin Shaojie was only one of the Five Tattooed Soul, if it wasn't for the Profound Iron Token, he did not have the qualifications to participate in the trial. Although his performance during the trial was extremely tyrannical, so what? The stone tablet did not care about this point, the Five psycho s, and even their student recruitment instructors were extremely worried.

Hehe, the Nether Sect is not a place where anyone can casually enter. Otherwise, it would not have been possible for them to command the entire Hundred Empire.

Beside him, Wang Yuanhong also sneered. Did the Five psycho really think that they could enter the Nether Sect? It was all a waste of time.

What level of confidence was that? I don't know, but I'll try.

However, Qin Shaojie did not seem to be worried or anxious at all, nor was there much nervousness on his face. No matter what, this mentality of his meant that even if he lost, it would still be a glorious defeat!

Let's begin!

After that, as one of the student recruitment instructors' voices fell, he saw a young man walk out first. He dripped his blood on the stone tablet, then activated the profound energy in his body.

At this moment, everyone turned their gazes over.
