Compared with the slightly shabby branch of Nan Yan Commandery, the assessment hall of Azure Prefecture Demon Suppression Division is completely different.
The entire hall is built of thousand-year-old Black Tortoise rock. It is completely dark and exudes an ancient and solemn atmosphere.
There are eighteen giant pillars carved with dragons and phoenixes standing in the hall. On the dome, there is a huge night pearl inlaid, which illuminates the entire hall as bright as day, and every detail is visible.
Lin Feng held the letter of recommendation from Nan Yan Commandery Manager and slowly walked into the hall under the leadership of a deacon.
At this moment, many people had already gathered in the hall, all of whom were prominent figures in the state capital Demon Suppression Division.
They gathered together in twos and threes, whispering to each other, and glanced at Lin Feng from time to time, their eyes full of curiosity, scrutiny, and a trace of imperceptible contempt.
"Is this Lin Feng from Nan Yan Commandery? It doesn't look like much Three Heads and Six Arms."
"Haha, young man, you just had some bad luck and cut down a few inferior Dan Yuan Realm, and you really thought you were invincible. Little did you know, the water in the state capital is much deeper than his little pond."
"I heard that Zhao Family has already announced that this kid will die without a burial place!"
Lin Feng turned a deaf ear to these discussions. His eyes fell calmly on the examiner in the center of the hall who was responsible for this assessment.
It is one of the three Silver Badge Demon Slayer Envoy, Master Hidden Mysteries.
Master Hidden Mysteries is dressed in a white robe, has an immortal spirit, and holds a volume of ancient books in his hand. He is looking at it intently, as if he is indifferent to everything in the outside world.
But Lin Feng was keenly aware that underneath this indifference, there was a hint of hostility directed at him.
"Nan Yan Commandery, Lin Feng, come and take part in the silver medal promotion assessment."
Lin Feng handed over the recommendation letter. His voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard in everyone's ears.
Master Hidden Mysteries then slowly raised his eyelids, and a glimmer of light flashed in those old, seemingly cloudy eyes.
He took the letter of recommendation, glanced at it casually, and threw it aside.
"Nan Yan Commandery's Yan Cheng is getting better and better at doing things."
He said with a smile, with a bit of yin and yang in his tone, "A newcomer who has just joined the company less than two months ago dares to be sent to participate in the silver medal assessment. Does he think that my threshold of Azure Prefecture Demon Suppression Division is something that even cats and dogs can pass?"
These words were so unceremonious that everyone present was stunned.
It seems that the rumors are true. Master Hidden Mysteries and Zhao Family are on good terms. This is to avenge their private vendetta and give Lin Feng a blow.
Lin Feng's face still had the same Ancient Well waveless expression, as if the other person was not talking about him.
"Rules cannot be broken."
Seeing that Lin Feng was unmoved, Master Hidden Mysteries snorted in his heart, stood up slowly, pointed at a three-foot-high black stone tablet in the center of the hall, and said loudly, "The silver medal assessment is divided into three levels. The first level is the True Qi purity test."
"This is 'Mystic Crystal Power-Testing Stele', which is made of Ten-Thousand-Year Mystic Crystal Iron. It can accurately measure the purity and vigor of True Qi in a warrior's body. When True Qi is poured into it, the stone tablet will light up. Every foot of light that rises represents a level."
He paused, his eyes swept over Lin Feng, and the corners of his mouth curved in a playful way.
"According to the rules, the bronze medal is promoted to the silver medal. The purity of True Qi must reach at least six feet to be qualified. But..."
He changed the topic and his voice suddenly rose in pitch.
"You Lin Feng are young. Since you have already reached Dan Yuan Ninth Layer, you must be extremely talented, far beyond ordinary people. If ordinary standards are applied to you, it would be a bit unfair."
"So be it."
Master Hidden Mysteries stroked his beard and made a "I'm thinking about you" expression.
"I will set a standard for you alone."
"Ten feet!"
"As long as your True Qi can make this Power-Measuring Stele shine ten feet, you will pass this first level!"
Boom!
As soon as this statement came out, the whole audience was in an uproar!
"Ten feet?! Master Hidden Mysteries-sama, are you kidding me?"
"Are you kidding! Since the establishment of Mystic Crystal Power-Testing Stele, the highest record is still nine feet and nine inches set by Master Gold Badge Commander twenty years ago when Dan Yuan Realm Ninth Layer Peak was in Dan Yuan Realm Ninth Layer Peak! Ten feet, that is simply an impossible task!"
"This is not an assessment, this is clearly making things difficult! I want this kid to make a fool of himself in public and retreat when he is in trouble!"
Everyone present could tell that Master Hidden Mysteries was blatantly giving Lin Feng little shoes.
However, as the person involved, Lin Feng, after hearing about this "impossible" task, instead of showing any anger or fear on his face...
Yawned.
He didn't even bother to ask what the so-called highest record was, he just asked impatiently:
"How to test?"
This understatement made everyone who was originally preparing to watch the show be stunned.
Is this kid really stupid or pretending to be stupid?
Master Hidden Mysteries was also choked. He didn't expect that the other party didn't even bother to refute and just agreed.
"Press your hand on the stone tablet and pour True Qi into it."
He snorted coldly and sat back in his chair, ready to see how Lin Feng would make a fool of himself.
"Let's get started."
Lin Feng nodded and walked slowly to the huge black stone monument.
In the eyes of everyone, either sympathetic, gloating, or curious.
He slowly raised his right hand and gently pressed it on the cold stone tablet.
There is no earth-shattering momentum, nor gorgeous light and shadow special effects.
He pressed it casually, as if he was just touching an ordinary stone sculpture.
However, the moment his palm came into contact with the stone tablet.
[270 times critical hit trigger!]
Buzz--!!!
A dull buzz, as if from ancient Primordial World, suddenly sounded from inside the stone monument!
Immediately afterwards, the completely black and eternal Mystic Crystal Power-Testing Stele, like a lit torch, burst out from the bottom with an unprecedented burst of extremely bright golden light!
That light is no longer the ordinary white light inspired by the previous testers, but a brilliant divine light filled with the most yang and strength that seems to be able to purify all the filth in the world!
On top of the stone tablet, the light pillar representing the purity of True Qi soared crazily upward at a speed that exceeded the limit of everyone's understanding!
One foot!
Two feet!
Three feet!
Seven feet!
Eight feet!
Nine feet!
The beam of light was so powerful that it broke through the nine-foot-nine-inch record held by Gold Badge Commander for twenty years almost in the blink of an eye!
And, the momentum hasn't slowed down at all!
"This... this is impossible!"
Master Hidden Mysteries stood up from the chair in a hurry. His old face, which had always been calm and calm, was filled with horror and disbelief for the first time!
Click--
At the moment when the light beam broke through the ten-foot mark, a crisp and heart-wrenching sound of shattering suddenly sounded from inside the stone monument.
The Mystic Crystal Power-Testing Stele that has stood for hundreds of years and withstood the impact of countless geniuses.
Unexpectedly, in front of this overbearing Nine Yang True Qi, a series of fine, spiderweb-like cracks appeared under the heavy load!
