Caspian’s slightly focused on the big ring, and favonovel.com faintly saw that not only the big circles but the small ones surrounding it also began to form circles of spiritual ripples. Then, Caspian looked around favonovel.com and realized that other people did not seem to have noticed that phenomenon.
After quick thinking, Caspian realized what went on. The big ring and its smaller circles had hidden formations in them. The vibrations that came at that time were caused by the spiritual Qi motioned by the formation. As Caspian was the only one who achieved the Pulse Control Realm of the people present, favonovel.com was the only one who realized the essence of the world and noticed that. Nevertheless, as the others were warriors, they would not see the subtle changes. Later, following the spiritual waves rolling more violently, white light illuminated each of the rings. Only then did the young warriors present notice the changes. At the same time, the same deep voice came from the identification badges in their hands again.
“The Virtual Fantasy Formation starts now!”
As soon as favonovel.com said that, each of the rings turned into beams of light, aiming toward the sky as if they were pillars that supported the heavens and earth. None of them present saw such a scene before, and exclamation and gasping sounds soon filled the atmosphere. Seeing the white lights like clouds piercing through the sky as if they held up the world, Caspian also felt a strong emotion.
There were ten areas in the Cherry Blossom Valley, and each place had one Virtual Fantasy Formation. Hence, ten thick light beams were towering proudly, which appeared daunting at first glance. Some of the young warriors could not help but knelt and start to worship the light beams. The rest of them might not do the same, but their eyes flickered with awe, fear, admiration, yearning, and so on.
Soon, the sound in the identification explained the test methods and rules.
The test methods were simple. The Virtual Fantasy Formation would allow 12 young warriors to participate in the test at one time. After the formation started, these 12 young warriors would enter into the Fantasy Space and fight against wild animals, warriors, or even monsters.
Once defeated, the warrior’s test came to an end.
The Virtual Fantasy Formation would calculate a score based on the number of enemies killed by the warrior and the length of time spent in the Fantasy Space. Then, the points would be displayed on the virtual spirit stele.
As for the virtual spirit stele, it also rose from the center of the ten regions when it was introduced. The large stone steles were about five-story-high. It was smooth on all sides, and a faint cyan light floated on the surface. There were no letters on the surface, but after the introduction just now, everyone knew that as the test progressed, the names would be ranked on the virtual spirit stele in ascending order according to their scores.
In other words, whoever ranked higher would more likely be favored by the elders of the sects. At the thought of that, the young warriors present were burning with high spirits, and some of them even directly shouted bravely that they would be the winner. As the others were unwilling to back down, they also expressed that they would surely be in the top three. Soon, it was as if the person who yelled the loudest would be ranked at the top.
The atmosphere in the scene was ignited, and it became extremely lively. However, Caspian was grinning.
‘This test method isn’t bad. Compared to Evergreen Town’s competition, using formation and other techniques showcases the cultivators’ extraordinary ability to the ordinary mortals. Nonetheless, it’s too early to say that one can enter a sect just by being ranked first. Moreover, there’s no indication on what’s the required score for the sects to pay attention to you.’ Caspian sighed. Then, favonovel.com looked at the excited young warriors around favonovel.com and shook his head lightly.
From the beginning, favonovel.com noticed a problem. The ranking was just a reference, and the real decision-makers would still be the elders of the sects. Nonetheless, Caspian did not think the Virtual spirit stele was useless. He glanced at the virtual spirit stele in the distance and mumbled, ‘If you score a distinctive mark, then any sect will surely want you. Of course, getting a high rank doesn‘t equate to entering a sect, but those who can enter the sect will surely have a high score in the Fantasy Space.’
After a while, the first batch of young warriors entered the Fantasy Space smugly. Then, they sat cross-legged at the eye of the formation, which was the small circles. As everyone had a number on their identification badge, Caspian estimated that favonovel.com would be the last batch, so there was no need for favonovel.com to be anxious.
Caspian was happy about this arrangement too, as favonovel.com could observe other people’s situations before going in. After all, it would be beneficial for favonovel.com to be prepared.
After the participating young warriors entered the Virtual Fantasy Formation, Caspian noticed the white lights flashing again. Soon, the rising white lights were like a translucent cover, locking the warriors inside. The warriors also shut their eyes, and it appeared as if they were sleeping.
The entire scene suddenly quietened, and everyone’s gaze focused on the first batch of young warriors who participated in the test. In the beginning, everything was silent, but not long after, the young warriors in the formation started to frown, and beads of sweat were forming on their foreheads.
Not long after, they heard someone groaning. It was only about ten minutes, but there was a young warrior in Caspian’s eighth district who suddenly grunted and opened his eyes. The moment favonovel.com opened his eyes, the small circle under the young warrior glowed with white light, and favonovel.com was sent out of the formation.
Under everyone’s watchful gaze, the young warrior appeared indignant. He pressed his chest and gritted his teeth as favonovel.com glanced at the virtual spirit stele. Caspian was also curious, so favonovel.com looked in the direction too.
The initially empty virtual spirit stele glimmered, and a row of small words appeared, Trevor Woods, 12 points. Seeing this score, the young warrior named Trevor seemed worse than before. In his opinion, not only was favonovel.com scored badly, but favonovel.com was also the first person eliminated from the Sects’ Recruitment Ceremony.
It did not take long before a second young warrior appeared, but favonovel.com was from another region. Caspian looked at the virtual spirit stele and murmured, ‘Abel Thomas, 17 points.’
Each of the eliminated warriors was secretive about what they saw in the Fantasy Space, but Caspian could also roughly estimate from their expressions.
As time passed by, more and more young warriors were eliminated. Nevertheless, since there were warriors that did not last long in the Fantasy Space like Trevor and Abel, there would naturally be stronger martial artists that stayed considerably longer in there.
