The Supreme God of Martial Arts

Whoosh!

A brownish yellow light emerged slowly from somewhere in the mountains.

The brownish yellow stream of light soared into the air, followed by a loud explosion.

To everyone's astonishment, a huge piece of land appeared in the sky above the Mighty Mountains.

"The venue for the selection test is the piece of land which you can see suspended in the sky. Now, everyone should cup to

take part in the selection test."

The cold voice rang out as it made the announcement from the suspended land again.

The next moment, everyone began to fly up towards the land. No one wanted to be left behind.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Countless figures rushed from different positions on the ground below and flew up towards the suspended land, like locusts.

"Let's go upwards,"

said the Peacock King. Instantly he too flew towards the land.

The others followed him without any hesitation.

There was no one to be left behind, and Austin was among them.

Brady, Caroline, the gnome, and Violet followed him closely.

Soon, all of them landed on the suspended piece of land in the sky.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Austin was amazed. He could not help but admire it.

On landing, they saw a vast and boundless square that was on the suspended land.

The dense spiritual energy turned into a fog and drifted slowly in the air. All the people started to feel comfortable as they bathed

in the misty fog.

After having a quick glance around, everyone's eyes were fixed on the center of the square.

In the center of the huge square, there was a shining stone, a stela.

The stela was huge. It was at least a thousand meters high, magnificent and sparkling.

"Hello, everyone! Welcto the selection test of our four schools.

| don't want to talk much and delay the process.

Letjust inform you about the rules of the test.

This time, the four schools are going to recruit far more new students in the East Mainland than they have done earlier.

So, we are going to recruit four hundred new students in the East Mainland this time!"

Suddenly, four old men appeared beside the stone stela.

One of them, an old man in grey, slowly explained to everyone the rules. His hair was a mix of white and black.

Wow!

Four hundred new recruits!

As soon as everyone heard the old man's words, their faces showed how unbelievable it was for them. The expressions on their

faces conveyed their bewilderment.

The whole square began to stir with buzzing sound of whispers.

Every young cultivator was overjoyed to know that there was going to be a recruitment drive of four hundred cultivators.

Earlier, the four schools used to recruit less than a hundred new students in the East Mainland every time.

Sometimes, the number was far less, ranging between mere twenty and thirty new students.

However, this time, they had planned to recruit four hundred students. It meant that many young cultivators, who probably would

not have got a chance earlier, now could have high hopes of getting through.

"Ha ha! That is great!

If they had decided to recruit only a dozen students, | don't think | would have got any chance at all.

Now that they plan to recruit four hundred, | think it is very likely that | will get to join any of the four schools."

"God bless me! No doubt that this is the best opportunity for me. Whatever happens, | must seize the opportunity this time!

This is the tand chance to change my fate!"

many young cultivators expressed in low yet excited voices as they were filled with new energy and vigor.

"Be quiet!"

the old man in grey said again.

With that, all the people fell silent and listened to him attentively. The hue and cry had stopped as they listened with keen interest.

"Indeed, the number of new students being recruited this tis far more than those done earlier.

It means that there will be more young geniuses and talents who will get to go to our four schools for further cultivation.

However, there is one thing that | want to make clear before you in advance.

In our four schools, we can provide more resources and opportunities for students to cultivate. That enables every student to be

promoted to a higher level in their lives.

However, keep in mind that after joining our four schools, the students will have to face more cruel training and a severe

competitive environment.

Letput it across in this way. The reason for recruiting so many new students this tis that we have lost a lot of students in

the process of adventures and competitions.

Therefore, it is a fact we are in urgent need of new students.

Anyway, it is indeed a good opportunity for all of you to be able to cultivate in the four schools. You may make great progress, face

different stages and worlds, and create a mark for yourself and be glorified.

However, as all of you are aware, there are also possibilities that you may die any tduring the cruel trials and competitions!

So, | would like to advise everyone who wants to join our four schools that you must think it over very carefully before making a

decision."

The voice of the old man dressed in grey echoed in the square.

At that moment, no one spoke anything. It was like all of them were thinking cautiously.

Everyone had a solemn look on their faces as they weighed the situation at hand.

Obviously, the words of the old man dressed in grey were a bit shocking for everyone.

The participants had to think well. If they joined the four schools, they could either make a huge success or die at any time.

"Can this be true? Is it so dangerous to get into the four schools?

It's so scary. Why is it different from what | thought? Father, | don't want to join the four schools. | want to stay in the East

Mainland!

If | stay in the East Mainland, | will live and be able to cultivate as usual.

What if | die after | enter the four schools?"

Many cultivators with weak willpower, especially those young men who were used to an easy life, began to retreat.

"Huh! Martial arts cultivation is always supposed to be a cruel way to compete with others. It's normal!"

Keeping that in mind, most of the people were in high spirits. They didn't retreat after being intimidated by the words of the old

man.

After a little while, the voice of the old man dressed in grey sounded in the air again.

"Well, if you've made up your minds, lettell you about the methods employed for the test this time,"

the old man in grey continued in his calm voice.

Everyone listened carefully to his words.

"So, letask you all something. Have you all seen the stone stela at the center of the square?"

the old man in grey asked them, as he pointed towards the stone stela. It was still there, at the center of the square.

Everyone's eyes fell on the stone stela again. It still made them awestruck.

"This stone stela, which you can see here, is called the Talent Stela.

It is able to test a person's combat power, talent, potential, and so many other things. You can see that there are many engraved

stripes from top to bottom on the stela.

Each stripe represents a rank. From top to bottom, there are more than a thousand stripes.

Every cultivator will get one chance. In just one attempt, the cultivator needs to hit the stela with one palm move.

The Talent Stela will show your ranking based on your age, talent, potential, and other factors.

Of course, it does not matter how many people participate in the ranking test. Only the first thousand would be shown each time.

Lettell you, this tthe selection for the new students of our four schools is based on the Talent Stela. The ones in the top

four hundred will be eligible to enter our four schools and becour new students!"

the old man in grey said slowly so that his words were clear and would register in the minds of the listeners.

The Talent Stela!

What a wonderful magic treasure!

All the people there had their eyes fixed on the stone stela. They were amazed and impressed by it and looked at it with awe.

Indeed, they secretly praised it in their hearts.
