"Is the Ancient Buddha Body really strong?” Xu Zimei asked with some doubt.

He had seen many constitutions before.

And this Ancient Buddha Body didn’t seem to rank very highly.

The lackey snorted coldly.

He stepped forward and said, “Kid, do you even know how powerful the Ancient Buddha Body is?

As long as our young master continues to cultivate diligently.

In the future, he will become a Great Buddha.”

"If that’s the case, shouldn’t he join Buddhism? Why come to the True Martial Holy Sect?” Xu Zimei countered.

This left the lackey momentarily speechless.

He just snorted coldly.

And replied, “Our young master holds the True Martial Holy Sect in high regard. Kid, where did you come from?”

"Oh, I too am just a nameless nobody, here to join the True Martial Holy Sect,” Xu Zimei replied with interest.

Just then, the disciples around had already stepped forward, asking everyone to head to the Tao Testing Stone to assess their talent.

"Kid, do you dare to compete with me?” the young man with the Ancient Buddha Body asked.

His name was Wang Yun, and he emanated a faint Buddhist aura, with a strong sense of Buddhism.

"Compete in what,” Xu Zimei asked.

"Two rounds of testing, let’s see who’s stronger.

The loser will acknowledge the winner as their elder brother,” Wang Yun replied.

"No need for an elder brother. I’m not lacking in little brothers,” Xu Zimei waved his hand.

And said, “How about the loser runs a lap around the True Martial Holy Sect without pants?”

As soon as he said this, the people around were intrigued.

"This sounds interesting.”

"Exactly, exactly, let’s bet on this.”

The crowd buzzed with excitement.

This left Wang Yun a bit hesitant.

After all, a man’s pride is paramount.

If he lost, what face would he have left in the True Martial Holy Sect?

No, how could I lose?

He shook his head, dispelling some irrelevant thoughts.

And said, “Fine, let’s compete. Who’s afraid of whom?”

Xu Zimei chuckled.

At this time, many of the assessing disciples had already stepped up to the Tao Testing Stone.

The Tao Testing Stone was divided into ten grades.

It would rate you based on your aptitude and potential.

The crowd’s attention was drawn to this testing.

"Wang Ping, three-path aptitude.”

"No way, only a three-path aptitude?”

The young man found it hard to believe.

"No one in our East Willow Village can surpass me.”

"Zhang Defang, four-path aptitude.”

"No way, I have the Sword King Body, how come just four-path aptitude.”

Amidst the crowd’s discussions.

Everyone seemed to understand.

The True Martial Holy Sect’s testing was stricter than expected.

Some people’s aptitudes might be considered talented in other factions.

But at the True Martial Holy Sect, they are just average.

"This is quite interesting,” Wang Yun said with interest.

He glanced at Xu Zimei.

"Kid, if you’re scared, it’s not too late to back out now.”

Xu Zimei didn’t answer him.

Finally, it was time for the two of them to be tested.

Wang Yun stepped forward confidently and placed his hand on the Tao Testing Stone.

He seemed very confident.

There wasn’t even a trace of worry.

When his right hand landed on the Tao Testing Stone, sure enough, a powerful light burst forth with a “boom.”

One could see that this light was extraordinary.

The aura wasn’t the same.

On the Tao Testing Stone, the light points began to surge upwards.

Five paths,

Six paths,

Seven paths,

Eight paths.

Ultimately, Wang Yun’s aptitude reached eight-path aptitude.

Seeing this, everyone was astonished.

Eight-path aptitude was quite exaggerated indeed.

He was by far the strongest among the many disciples present.

Because previously, most were lingering around three or four-path aptitude.

"I thought it would be nine-path aptitude,” Wang Yun sighed.

Nonetheless, the pride on his face was unmistakable.

He turned to Xu Zimei.

"Alright, now it’s your turn.”

Xu Zimei shook his head.

Steps forward to place his palm on the Tao Testing Stone.

The crowd watched eagerly.

Initially, the Tao Testing Stone was silent.

"No way, not even a one-path aptitude?”

Someone said in doubt.

"That shouldn’t be, could he really be that worthless?”

The crowd buzzed with speculation.

Just then, an unprecedented light burst forth.

It wasn’t that the Tao Testing Stone hadn’t reacted before.

Rather, the reaction was so great it caused the Tao Testing Stone to be momentarily still.

As if it had stalled.

On the Tao Testing Stone, the aptitude level shot up like a rocket.

In an instant, it reached nine-path aptitude.

"This… this is impossible,” Wang Yun’s expression changed dramatically.

But the next moment, with a “boom,” the Tao Testing Stone cracked.

This scene astonished everyone.

The Tao Testing Stone broke.

Was the talent too high to measure?

Or did the Tao Testing Stone break?

The crowd buzzed with speculation.

Just then, the assessing disciple calmly said, “Some people’s aptitude cannot be measured by the Tao Testing Stone.

The Tao Testing Stone does not break.”

With these words, all doubts were put to rest.

It was clear, without a doubt, that Xu Zimei had won.

Wang Yun looked embarrassed and a bit angry.

"Sigh, sorry for making a fool of myself,” Xu Zimei shook his head.

"This little aptitude is hardly worth mentioning.”

The crowd was left speechless.

This guy really knows how to show off.

He looked at Wang Yun, laughed, and said, “Ready to take off your pants?”

"Don’t push it,” Wang Yun snorted coldly.

"There’s still the second test, the winner isn’t decided yet.”

Xu Zimei shook his head and laughed.

This guy really won’t give up until there’s no hope.

He didn’t say anything else.

Soon, the first round of testing was completed.

Xu Zimei was the undisputed first.

And Wang Yun was second, naturally.

Along the way, some disciples with decent aptitude emerged.

There were seven-path aptitudes and six-path aptitudes.

Disciples began leading the new candidates to the second test.

This second test assessed courage and included loyalty.

The second test was an illusion array.

However, this wasn’t an ordinary illusion array.

It is said that for people of their strength, once trapped in the illusion array.

It’s very difficult to wake up again.

This round not only tested breaking out of the array but also the time it takes to do so.

A disciple entered first.

Soon after, this disciple came out, acting crazy.

"My Great Qing has fallen.”

"This formation is quite impressive,” the crowd discussed.

Indeed, over a dozen people in a row became lost in the illusion array.

Soon, it was Xu Zimei’s and Wang Yun’s turn.

"Just wait, I will definitely beat you,” Wang Yun turned, aggressively telling Xu Zimei.

He was like a mouse whose tail had been stepped on.

Xu Zimei maintained a calm smile the whole time.

As they watched Wang Yun enter, everyone was curious.

"How long do you think it’ll take him to come out?”

"A minute, maybe,” .

"I bet three minutes.”

The crowd buzzed with guesses.

But within just thirty seconds, Wang Yun came out, calm and composed.
