The Hooligan in Another World

Chapter 15 Martial Soul Grade Test

"It's Jiang Cai's turn next. I'm really looking forward to it."

“There’s no need for comparison at all. His Martial Soul potential is at least of the spirit rank, and he’s in the top one hundred of the Sword Marquis Estate at the very least.”

“That’s right, he has followed Xu Feng for a long time, and his Martial Soul’s talent wouldn’t be much weaker. Moreover, don’t forget that he broke through to the Sword Marquis Estate less than two months ago, this shows his talent.”

Jiang Cai’s body was indeed covered with a lot of light. Those who had tested him earlier all had dim expressions.

“Come on, Chu Qianye, my Martial Soul is destined to become a genius.” Jiang Cai shot a glance at Chu Qianye, then walked towards the black boulder, placing his palm on it.

Black light suddenly erupted!

One, two, three... In an instant, nine rays of dazzling black light flickered.

Mortal rank Nine Star!

Everyone was shocked when they saw the nine black rays of light.

Close to a Martial Soul, this kind of cultivation talent was less than a hundred in the entire Water Cloud County.

“If I wasn’t in such a hurry, my Martial Soul would have at least reached the spirit grade.”

Jiang Cai said blandly.

It’s so eye-catching! Is this a mortal grade nine Martial Soul? The crowd’s attention shifted to the battle stage.

“Terrifying, those who possess Martial Souls like this, their cultivation talent is not bad.”

At this moment, the Martial Arts Pavilion had become rather quiet. Some people even sucked in a breath of cold air.

Jiang Cai walked off the stage and glanced at Chu Qianye with disdain, like a proud princess looking down on a follower who didn’t know the immensity of the heaven and earth.

Chu Qianye calmly walked onto the stage and raised his right palm under the ridicule of the crowd.

The rock shot out two rays of light.

“Ha-ha, Mortal rank two?”

“Trash.”

But the next moment, their pupils contracted slightly.

Three rays of light, four rays of light, five rays of light... seven rays of light!

Furthermore, it was crimson in colour!

“Wait, these are seven red streaks?”

“Seventh star spirit rank!”

Everyone was surprised while opening their mouths, and they looked at the rock as if they’d forgotten something.

“Mortal rank nine, is it very strong?” Chu Qianye asked calmly.

Om…

Chu Qianye’s Martial Soul suddenly trembled.

The eighth ray of red light suddenly illuminated the Martial Arts Pavilion, like a white light in the dark night.

He pushed his right palm away, but his Martial Soul’s power still shook the black rock.

“Crunch.”

A clear sound resounded out as the surroundings of the rock actually split apart, and a fine crack stretched out like a spiderweb.

Chu Qianye’s Martial Soul was golden in color, a rare divine grade spirit.

However, this Martial Soul was a little strange. It had yet to fully awaken, and there were still some seals remaining.

Fortunately, this was the case, or else the entire world would have been shaken!

Even so, everyone held their breaths and stared fixedly at Chu Qianye when they saw the crack appear on the rock.

“What’s going on?”

One official asked in confusion.

“Looks like the Mystic Rock cannot withstand my Martial Soul’s power.”

“Hiss!”

Hearing this answer, everyone held their breath and their faces were full of shock.

“Passed,” The headmaster in charge of the evaluation said after a short moment.

At this moment, Mr. Tang’s expression was ugly. He did not expect Chu Qianye to amaze the world with a single brilliant feat.

“Humph, how lucky.” Mr. Tang’s expression remained unchanged as he continued, “Your Martial Soul has shattered and your crippled meridian channels have been crippled. Your senses are extraordinary, and the next round will be the strength test. You’d best pray for your luck.”

Only after hearing this did Jang Jiang feel a bit better. Chu Qianye’s Martial Soul was a bit too much for him to handle, and he was still half-convinced to this day.

“Well, it seems like whatever I do is wrong, even if I burst out with my Xuan grade Martial Soul, you will definitely have other excuses. Even if it is a God grade Martial Soul, it is nothing in your mouth.”

Chu Qianye left the stage expressionlessly.

“Chu Qianye, you were lucky enough to pass the first round, but the second round is a strength test. I will let you see the true gap between us.” Jiang Cai calmly said, “You have no chance of entering the Spiritual Road, so you won’t be able to enter the Inner Estate.”

“Luck. fortune? He allowed me to see the true difference in power?”

What a joke.

Chu Qianye stood by the wall and scanned the surroundings with his eyes.

Whether it was the king or the officials of Chishui Country or the headmaster and disciples of Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, none of them favored him. Their eyes were full of disdain and ruthlessness.

“Get the drum.”

The Sect Master said indifferently.

After saying that, several generals raised the huge drum and stepped onto the stage. The huge wooden hammer was inserted into the surface of the huge drum.

Martial Generals were formidable martial artists who had fought on the battlefield for many years, bathed in blood and fighting bravely. Their bodies had accumulated quite a bit of vicious energy, and they possessed extraordinary strength.

But now, their faces were slightly flushed, and they seemed to find it difficult to lift the giant drum.

The disciples of the Sword Marquis Estate were all secretly surprised.

“This giant drum is made of the cow’s leather and can withstand the force of one hundred ding. The wooden mallet is made of lightning and iron wood. This wooden mallet has at least one ding of strength, and can pass the second trial with one ring.”

Everyone was staring intently at the strong drum on the battle stage. A solemn expression was revealed on their faces.

The first round was easy, but the second round was not so easy. After all, it was really difficult to make the drum sound.

There were over 200 individuals that participated in the Spiritual Road. After the first round of the examination, only 50 individuals remained. Towards this result, everybody could not help but suck in a breath of cold air.

“Oh boy, it really is the Sword Marquis’s Estate. The ones that entered the “Spiritual Road in the end were all true geniuses.

This world was just that cruel. The survival of the fittest was something no one could avoid.

“Now, enter the second round of the examination.” The Sect Master lightly said, “Wang Li.”

Just as he finished speaking, another person stepped onto the dueling platform.

All eyes fell on this person.

His body bent like a readied crossbow. As he roared, he grabbed the wooden hammer in his hand and slammed it fiercely at the giant drum.

Dong!

A deep echo echoed out in the Martial Arts Pavilion, causing the crowd's hearts to tremble...

“A cauldron’s worth of strength.”

Astonishment appeared on everyone’s faces.

The man had only swung the hammer once before his entire arm fell limply to the ground. His face was somewhat pale, and he panted heavily.

“Wang Li possesses a Mortal rank five Martial Soul and is a Second Order Yellow Realm, yet there’s only one ring.”

“This drum really isn’t simple.”

The second martial arts practitioner held the wooden hammer and put it down sensibly.

...

Along with the passage of time, forty people had already completed their exams.

“Jiang Cai.”

After an unknown period of time, the examination’s headmaster spoke.

Jiang Cai stepped forward. He was extremely depressed to have been suppressed by Chu Qianye in the first round.

With a thought, the Martial Soul in his body suddenly burst out with a flash of black light. Behind him was the silhouette of a raging bull.

This was his Martial Soul.

Savage bull Martial Souls could enhance his strength and make his mind more resilient.

"Thump, thump, thump..."

Five consecutive drumbeats reverberated in the air, echoing in the Martial Refinement Pavilion.

“The strength of five ding!”

The disciples of the Sword Marquis Estate were secretly shocked when they saw this scene, and they revealed expressions of disbelief.

The officials were also slightly moved.

Many of the Sword Marquis Estate’s Sect Masters stood up successively.

Geniuses, Common Grade Nine Stars, their physical strength was actually this frightening.

Outsiders might not be aware of this, but they were well aware of this. This drum was something that second level Yellow Realm cultivators could at most ring once. It might not even ring once if the physical body wasn’t strong enough.

Jiang Chen had only done it five times. This meant that his martial cultivation was at least sixth level Yellow Realm!

When every sect leader looked at Jiang Cai, their eyes became more and more fiery.

This seemed to respond to Jiang Cai’s words. In the second round, he would widen the distance between him and Chu Qianye, and this distance was an insurmountable chasm!

The onlookers looked at Chu Qianye with a mocking expression.
