Evaluations

"Who exactly borrowed my power?" Yun Zhi wondered. The Immortal Sect had fled with their entire family, leaving no one behind, only the Mountain and River Cauldron, which could buy a first-grade sect.

Now it's impossible to find out who borrowed my power.

There is a type of Law Technique "Divine Descent," which allows one to borrow power with the other party's permission. However, this Law Technique is on the verge of being lost and is extremely difficult to learn. Yun Zhi has not seen this Law Technique for a long time.

Moreover, who could borrow power without her consent? Yun Zhi felt that the person who borrowed the power seemed to have no ill intentions, so she did not stop the power from leaking out just now out of instinct.

Yun Zhi could roughly guess who it was.

"But where did he learn the art of divine intervention?"

Yun Zhi didn't recall teaching Lu Yang any similar Law Technique.

First place: Lu Yang.

"Huh? The number one spot has changed?" The vice-leader asked in confusion. They had been busy escaping and hadn't noticed what Lu Yang had done.

The Mountain and River Cauldron is shattered, and the replay is no longer available.

"However, the Immortal Eye is never wrong. These three are the most destructive!" the sect leader said confidently. He couldn't guess what Lu Yang had done either. The number one player just now killed hundreds of people in a short period of time and brought danger to thousands of others. His life was not long. It was truly unbelievable that Lu Yang could surpass this person and become number one in an instant.

But there's no need to guess. The Immortal Eye is a supreme treasure of immortals, even more advanced than the Mountain and River Cauldron, so it's absolutely impossible to be wrong.

Indeed, Lu Yang summoned Yun Zhi and destroyed the Mountain and River Cauldron and the headquarters of the Immortal Cult, causing damage to the Immortal Cult that ranks among the top three in history.

In terms of the harm inflicted on the cult leader alone, it ranks first.

The cult leader said smugly, forgetting all the pain in his body. "See, I told you, this Lu Yang is very intelligent. Don't be fooled by his current low ranking. If you're not careful, he can pull off a big move. And look, he's ranked first now."

"Don't be fooled by the fact that Man Gu, whom Meng Jingzhou and you favored, isn't performing well. It's just that he hasn't had enough time. If he had more time, he'd definitely be second or third."

The vice-leader accepted his defeat wholeheartedly. The leader, after all, is the leader; not only is he cautious in his actions, but he also has extremely sharp insight. No wonder he was only the vice-leader; the leader is the one in charge.

"So what's your assessment of Lu Yang?"

After a moment's thought, the cult leader slowly said, "In the first round, Lu Yang took an unconventional approach, revealing his martial arts talent and achieving enlightenment through martial arts—a rare feat in the world. In the second round, he carefully observed and summarized patterns, then bought potatoes, making it impossible for subsequent interviewees to test him, demonstrating his immense destructive power. This characteristic became even more prominent in the third round; calling him a born demon wouldn't be an exaggeration."

The vice-leader was surprised; he had known the leader for so long and had never heard of anyone receiving such high praise.

Where is Meng Jingzhou?

"Meng Jingzhou gained power from being bitten by a spider in the first test, which was a manifestation of luck. In this great world, it was a seed of destiny that was born at the right time. In the second test, he carefully studied the test questions and thought about the problems from multiple angles. He seemed arrogant and domineering, but in fact, he won step by step. With proper planning, he finally broke through the examiner's psychological defenses and passed the test smoothly."

"It's a pity that he didn't get to fully utilize his strengths in the third round before it ended. He was slightly inferior to Lu Yang. Let's call him the Demon of the Dao."

The praise of "the descent of the Daoist demon" is extremely rare. Few young people can receive such praise from the sect leader. It seems that Meng Jingzhou has a bright future ahead of him.

"Where is Man Gu?"

"He showed comprehension, perseverance, and strategy in the first test; his thinking was quite thorough in the second; however, he lacked initiative in the third. In previous tests, he has been among the most outstanding, but unfortunately, with such excellent candidates ahead of him, I can only give him the assessment that he has a demon in his heart."

With the demon in their hearts, based on past experience, as long as they don't perish, they can become high-ranking members of the Immortal Cult.

"Should we transfer them to headquarters for careful training?" the vice-leader asked.

The cult leader shook his head and shared his experience. "Don't rush things. Start from the bottom, get at least two years of grassroots experience. Believe me, grassroots experience is very helpful for future advancement; that's how I got there."

"Furthermore, I have another plan. Lu Yang is a man of boundless imagination, full of ideas and destructive power. Once he grows up, let's see if he can infiltrate a righteous sect, such as the Ask Dao Sect."

The vice-leader chuckled, thinking that the leader really overestimated them. They could still find ways to infiltrate other sects, but it would be too difficult for the Ask Dao Sect Seeking Sect. Few could keep up with the Ask Dao Sect disciples' thinking, and they would be exposed soon enough due to their incompatibility.

Infiltrating the Ask Dao Sect is no easy feat.

"I'm going to heal my injuries first," the cult leader said before heading to his secret chamber for meditation.

The vice leader never intended to usurp power; today is a prime example. While killing the leader might allow him to climb the ranks, what then? What if the righteous path attacks again? Can he make the right decision?

If a wrong judgment is made, one will surely die from the righteous path's moves, and by then it will be too late to regret usurping the throne.

Yanjiang Rudder.

"Ten people passed the test, and three more received the evaluations of being born with a demonic seed, a demon descended to earth, and a demon in their hearts?!" The leader's eyebrows shot up with joy when he heard the message from the sect leader.

This is even better than the best-case scenario I anticipated! A promotion opportunity is right in front of me!

Those rogue Rogue Cultivator were scattered and thrown to various locations by the eleven deacons while they were unconscious. When they woke up, they would forget the location of Yanjiang Ship and treat the experience as a dream.

The safest method would be to kill them, which would absolutely not expose the location of the Yanjiang Detachment. However, the Immortal Cult, for the sake of the overall situation, did not do so.

These rogue Rogue Cultivator, wreaking havoc in their respective regions, can attract the attention of the righteous path. Amidst the chaos of various conflicting information, the righteous path cannot distinguish between the actions of these rogue Rogue Cultivator and those of the demonic sects, thus achieving the effect of confusing the public.

Lu Yang and the other two slowly woke up, their minds still a bit muddled from what they had just experienced.

The scene I saw before I lost consciousness was... my senior sister descending from the sky?!

Lu Yang broke out in a cold sweat. Did his senior sister see him transform into her? If she did, she'd skin him alive.

Meng Jingzhou and Man Gu also remembered what had happened; Lu Yang's Imitation Fist summoned the real Senior Sister.

Lu Yang gave the two a warning look, telling them not to leak the news, and the two obediently nodded.

Suppressing his joy, the leader said in as calm a voice as possible, "From this day forward, the ten of you are members of the Immortal Cult."

"Logically, the initiation ceremony should be held first, but today's three rounds of trials have exhausted everyone's energy, including mine. To worship the immortal in this state would be disrespectful. We will hold the formal initiation ceremony here tomorrow."

Lu Yang could tell that the leader's tone and the expressions of the eleven deacons changed when the Immortals were mentioned.

This shows that their belief in immortal beings is not a pretense, but a genuine conviction in their existence.

"No wonder it's called a 'cult'," Lu Yang thought to himself.

The leader continued, "However, with a new member joining us today, it wouldn't be right not to celebrate. How about we go out for a meal?"

"I heard there's a new barbecue restaurant in the county called 'Come Again,' and it's really good and gets lots of positive reviews. Let's meet there later; it's on me."

Lu Yang: "..."

Meng Jingzhou: "..."

Man Gu: "..."
