Chapter 700: Testing the Soul Tamer!
“Looking for trouble!”
As Su Yi was about to gather his energy into his fist, a cold voice rang out.
“Boom!”
The Green Emperor’s figure materialized silently before Su Yi. A green light radiated powerfully, exuding a chilling and formidable aura. The presence of the Demonic Emperor Realm surged, ready to strike. No one would dare to harm Su Yi.
In an instant, the unrestrained aura of the Demonic Emperor Realm, emanating from the Green Emperor, caused the face of the young Tianxuan Sect disciple, who was on the verge of attacking, to turn pale. The flow of energy within him was abruptly blocked, his heart shook violently, and he nearly stumbled to the ground.
“Oh no, it’s the Demonic Emperor Realm!”
At once, Jian Wannian’s face changed. The immense aura of the Demonic Emperor Realm was beyond his comprehension. This disciple must not face any harm. He rushed forward, pulling the robed disciple behind him and stepping in front, acting as a shield.
Outrageous! How dare you disrespect the Yutian Palace!
Almost simultaneously, a sharp and dignified voice filled the grand hall.
As the voice reached everyone’s ears, it was like a thunderclap, rattling their very souls in awe.
All eyes were fixed in astonishment, especially those of Jian Wannian and the Green Emperor, for that voice resonated with them in a particularly intense way.
Su Yi was also deeply moved, recognizing that the voice belonged to Deputy Palace Master Guan Lan.
With just a single utterance, Deputy Palace Master Guan Lan managed to instill awe in both Jian Wannian and the Green Emperor. The strength of Deputy Palace Master Guan Lan is truly unfathomable.
Jian Wannian’s expression darkened after the reprimand. He quickly moved to pull the young disciple back, who was still visibly shaken. His gaze then shifted towards the Green Emperor, Su Yi, and Xi Wuqing, as he solemnly declared, “The Tianxuan Sect will remember this!”
“Hmph!”
The Green Emperor merely snorted coldly at Jian Wannian’s expression. As a member of the demonic clan, it had no fear of the Tianxuan Sect.
Xi Wuqing glanced at him indifferently, ignoring him.
What does the Tianxuan Sect think of itself? He had already killed people from powers on par with the Tianlong Sect and Sacred Mountain, and had taken down quite a few. Moreover, the Tianxuan Sect was comparatively weak.
Su Yi remained calm, but there was a resolve in his eyes.
Slowly releasing his clenched fist, Su Yi understood that this was a world where the strong preyed on the weak. If it hadn’t been for Xi Wuqing and the Green Emperor standing by him today, Jian Wannian would likely not have paid him any attention.
He recognized that his strength still needed much development. Becoming a true powerhouse was his priority!
However, Jian Wannian and the robed disciple’s gazes upon Su Yi’s calm demeanor only intensified their unease, the discomfort growing within them.
Bai Mingshan also glanced over at Jian Wannian, the Green Emperor, and the others, secretly amused by the commotion, enjoying the spectacle.
Elder Suyun, however, observed Su Yi with curiosity. She noticed that Xi Wuqing was no ordinary individual, and the Green Emperor was an extraordinary figure in the Demonic Emperor Realm.
Yet these two powerful beings revolved around Su Yi, suggesting that his status was far beyond what his age implied.
In particular, the formidable Demonic Emperor Realm powerhouse showed respect for Su Yi, making the situation even more intriguing.
“Alright, it’s getting late; let’s begin the test.”
Deputy Palace Master Yan Lu spoke, addressing the young people present.
Deputy Palace Master Yan Lu addressed the young individuals with a gentle tone. These were the future members of Yutian Palace.
Alchemists, craftsmen, and Soul Tamers each had a sense of pride, but when interacting with one another, they should approach with gentleness.
“Everyone, line up in the order of arrival. Alchemists, please step forward to me, Deputy Palace Master Yun Ding. Craftsmen, please line up before Deputy Palace Master Yan Lu at the Yun Ding. Soul Tamers, line up before Deputy Palace Master Guan Lan,” Deputy Palace Master Yan Lu continued.
As his words fell, several young people immediately stepped forward into the hall.
A total of fourteen young disciples from the Divine Sword School, Tianxuan Sect, and Qingyun Sect stood ready. Five of them lined up before Deputy Palace Master Yan Lu. Qingyun Sect and Tianxuan Sect each had two disciples, while the Divine Sword School had only one, Si Xiuyuan.
In front of Deputy Palace Master Yun Ding, there were also five young disciples, two of whom were from the Divine Sword School.
“Hmm…”
The young disciple from Qingyun Sect, dressed in a blue robe, cast a chilling glance at Su Yi. Stepping forward with an air of disdain, he joined the line that led to Deputy Palace Master Guan Lan.
He was a Soul Tamer, the highest rank among warriors, and the most formidable in terms of power.
Noticing the young man in a bright purple robe, Su Yi took a few steps forward and joined the queue behind him.
The young man’s black hair fell smoothly over his shoulders, and his purple robe highlighted his tall, lean figure. His expression remained composed, as though he had no connection to the earlier events in the Tianxuan Sect. His striking features captivated all who saw him.
The remaining young woman, also from Qingyun Sect, stood behind the young man in purple. Her figure was graceful and elegant, her white dress immaculate, her lips as delicate as cherry blossoms. She looked ethereal, like an immortal untouched by the mortal world.
“What about you? What are you testing?”
Perhaps due to the special treatment toward Xi Wuqing, Deputy Palace Master Yan Lu turned his gaze to Su Yi, who was still standing in place, and addressed him personally.
“Back to senior, the young boy is testing as a Soul Tamer.”
Su Yi bowed respectfully, neither overly humble nor arrogant. He then walked over to where Deputy Palace Master Guan Lan stood and joined the line behind the woman in a flawless white dress.
As Su Yi joined the queue, the hall filled with surprised looks. They hadn’t expected Su Yi to test as a Soul Tamer, considering the significance of that role.
“Hmm!”
Jian Wannian let out a faint, cold snort, clearly displeased.
The young disciple, at the front of the line, shot Su Yi an even colder glare. The arrogance and superiority he had displayed earlier completely vanished once Su Yi also chose to test as a Soul Tamer.
Deputy Palace Master Guan Lan briefly glanced at Su Yi, but his expression remained neutral.
It was the flawless young woman from Qingyun Sect who caught Su Yi’s attention. She turned slightly and, with her delicate face and star-like eyes, nodded gently towards him, acknowledging his discomfort with the behavior of the two Qingyun Sect disciples.
As Su Yi observed the woman’s demeanor, his expression softened, and he returned her nod.
Su Yi’s character had always been one where if you showed him respect, he would reciprocate with even greater respect.
“Let’s begin, then! It seems this is your first time taking the Yutian Palace test. Given your status, there’s no need to evaluate your spiritual energy and innate abilities. We will proceed directly to assessing your talent as alchemists!”
Deputy Palace Master Yan Lu looked at the five young disciples in front of him. They were from the Divine Sword School, Tianxuan Sect, and Qingyun Sect. Since the test was specifically for alchemists, they would skip evaluating other areas and directly assess their innate talent for alchemy.
