CHAPTER 51: CHAPTER 51 MEASURING FORCE, INITIAL SHOCK

Pulled along by the enthusiastic little girl in green, Su Wanyi felt it would be impolite to refuse and followed her.

"Little girl, what’s your name?" Su Wanyi asked with a smile.

"I’m Chang Lu Die. You can call me Lu Die, Sister," the little girl in green said with a grin.

"Mm, I am Su Wanyi," Su Wanyi also introduced herself.

"What a lovely name you have, Sister Su!" Chang Lu Die replied cheerily.

The pair chatted and laughed as they approached the crowd gathered around the Power-measuring Stone.

"What are they doing?"

A confused look appeared on Su Wanyi’s face.

In front of them stood a massive stone, ten meters tall and entirely black.

At that moment, a young man raised his Sword and struck the Power-measuring Stone.

BOOM!

As the Sword collided with the stone, a loud echo resounded.

A gleam of light suddenly shot out from the top of the Power-measuring Stone.

"The light is red."

The crowd burst into cheers.

"Haha... Another person has passed the Power-measuring Stone test," Chang Lu Die clapped her hands, laughing.

Noticing Su Wanyi’s confusion, she quietly explained, "Sister Su, although those under the age of twenty with a cultivation base in the Origin Sea Realm can participate, not everyone is allowed. So, this Power-measuring Stone helps eliminate those with insufficient strength."

Looking at the Power-measuring Stone, Su Wanyi asked with a smile, "So, a red light means I’ve passed?"

"Yes, if a red light appears, you can participate in the Tri-element Martial Meeting. However, you can only compete for places from fourth to tenth," Chang Lu Die explained.

"Besides red, are there other colors of light?" Su Wanyi inquired further.

"If your strike can make the Power-measuring Stone emit golden light, you will have the qualification to compete for the Heaven, Earth, and Human Realm." As she spoke, Chang Lu Die looked at the red leaderboard beside the Power-measuring Stone and said with a bit of surprise, "Wow! This year, nine people already qualify to compete for the Heaven, Earth, and Human Realm, far more than in the previous session."

Su Wanyi nodded her head.

Thanks to the little girl’s explanation, she now had a basic understanding of the Tri-element Martial Meeting. Since the Ancestor Dragon had instructed her to participate in the Tri-element Martial Meeting, he naturally wouldn’t expect her to aim for placings outside the Heaven, Earth, and Human rankings. Her goal was aimed squarely at the Heaven, Earth, and Human Realm itself. Thinking of her junior brother and junior sister’s extraordinary achievements under the Ancestor Dragon’s supervision—unparalleled among those of the same cultivation level—Su Wanyi clenched her fists. She felt that no matter what, she must achieve the best possible result in this Tri-element Martial Meeting. Even though she was only at the First Level of the Origin Sea Realm, she was determined to strive for the top.

"Sister Su, below the red light is white light. If one gets a white light, they can compete for ranks from eleventh to twentieth."

"That’s the range I’m aiming for this time," Chang Lu Die said with a beaming smile.

"Alright, let’s go test ourselves," Su Wanyi said with a light smile, and the two walked side by side, squeezing into the crowd.

The young man who had previously produced the red light, seemingly unsatisfied, launched a second strike. With another loud sound, red light emerged once again. He shook his head, collected a Token, and headed towards the central square arena.

Chang Lu Die led Su Wanyi to register, and then they joined the queue.

There were quite a few people ahead, but many didn’t meet the standard; some could only make the Power-measuring Stone emit white light.

Soon, it was their turn.

Chang Lu Die went first. She swung her Sword, landing it heavily on the Power-measuring Stone.

BOOM!

The Power-measuring Stone rumbled, and a white light rose from its top.

"Haha, this is incredible!" Chang Lu Die danced with delight, then turned to encourage Su Wanyi, "Sister Su, you have to do your best too! Let’s both aim for the top twenty!"

Su Wanyi smiled. This Little Lu Die was at the Second Level of the Origin Sea Realm, so it was natural for her to encourage Su Wanyi, who was at the First Level.

Su Wanyi stepped forward, drawing the blood-red Seven-star Dragon Abyss Sword from her back.

"Wow! Sister Su, your Sword is actually Heavenly Quality!" Chang Lu Die couldn’t help but exclaim upon seeing Su Wanyi’s Sword.

Those who could wield a Heavenly Quality Sword always came from extraordinary backgrounds. The Sword she used, from a Second-Tier Major Clan in Silver Moon City, was only of Earth Level. Only her Clan Leader, her father, used a Heavenly Quality Sword. Chang Lu Die felt that this Sister Su was becoming increasingly mysterious.

Many spectators were gathered around, most of them Cultivators. When the crowd saw the young and beautiful Su Wanyi draw a blood-red Sword, they couldn’t help but be slightly startled. This Sword, though it didn’t carry a bloodthirsty killing intent, gave off an extremely stunning impression, especially with the seven stars on its blade, adding to its mystique.

Su Wanyi raised the Sword in her hand, her gaze falling upon its blade. This Sword had been sealed by the Ancestor Dragon, so the spectral image of the Divine Dragon had vanished. Only seven slightly dim stars remained. Su Wanyi was calm and composed. Holding this Heavenly Quality Sword, she felt a sense of ease. If it were truly a God-level Sword, she wouldn’t dare to be standing here.

Each person had two attempts at the Power-measuring Stone.

Su Wanyi took a light breath, raised the Seven-star Dragon Abyss Sword, and brought it down heavily upon the Power-measuring Stone.

BOOM!

The resulting sound was earth-shattering, and the ground trembled three times.

Everyone was greatly shocked, their eyes wide as they stared at the exceptionally beautiful young woman. That strike just now... Was it really her?

BUZZ!

A golden light burst forth from the top of the Power-measuring Stone. This golden light was incredibly brilliant, seeming to illuminate the entire surrounding void in that instant.

The Cultivator supervising the Power-measuring Stone stared, his eyes wide in disbelief at the sight. Although no Purple Light appeared, this golden light was so dazzling and vast that it had reached the very peak of gold. Who would have thought that a young woman at only the First Level of the Origin Sea Realm could possess such terrifying power? Could it be that she possesses some kind of bloodline power?

Standing behind her, Chang Lu Die’s eyes widened as she exclaimed, "Sister Su, you’re too strong! You actually produced golden light!"

Su Wanyi felt a tremor in her heart at the commotion she had caused. She quickly sheathed the Seven-star Dragon Abyss Sword. Like Luo Li and Jun Moxiao, Su Wanyi was also of a cautious and low-key nature.

She had only used half her strength just now, yet she hadn’t expected to cause such an astonishing stir with the Power-measuring Stone. It had truly caught her by surprise. She secretly surmised that it must be the drop of Ancestral Dragon Essence Blood that had replaced her own exceedingly thin Dragon God Bloodline. That Ancestral Dragon Essence Blood had completely remolded her body, granting her immense power.

In legends, dragons were Divine Beasts renowned for their immense strength. Humans possessing the Dragon Clan Bloodline, once it was activated, would find their physical bodies becoming exceptionally strong, and the power they wielded would far surpass that of their peers.

"Which sect are you a disciple of? Your strength is truly incredible!" the Cultivator in charge of recording approached, his face a mask of shock, and asked.

"I am from the Dragon God Sect," Su Wanyi said calmly.

At this moment, under the bright sunshine, with a gentle breeze, she slightly lifted her fair and radiant chin. In her calm voice, a hint of quiet pride was concealed.
