Chapter 428

“I was right to keep my eye on Zi Yi,” The Luosha Emperor said . “For her to be able to absorb all of the energy from the Luosha Blood Pool and generate a Queen Luosha Mark, she must be even more gifted than Luo Hun . ”

The Emperor sat on his throne and looked down at Zi Yi in the arena, nodding his head .

Round after round of competition followed, and, after the conclusion of the fight for the top ten, only five participants remained – Ye Mo, Zi Yi, and the top three of the Luosha Institution – Luo Hun, Xu Wuji and Kai Long .

No one had expected this, especially in Ye Mo’s case . He had managed to use his strength in the intermediate stage of the True Energy Realm to defeat the fifth strongest of the Luosha Institution – Wang Tianxiao – before continuing to advance round after round, fighting his way into the top five .

In the past, the top five were usually taken up by members of the Luosha Institution . But this time there were two non-Luosha Institution students amongst the strongest five .

The Fall Test was to conclude with the top three fighters . The top three participants would be awarded Luosha Tokens, which would allow them to head to the Zone of Desolation and their ultimate destination – the Door of Desolation .

The nerve-wracking moment had finally arrived . This time, the Luosha Emperor had come down in person . No more sitting above the arena, all high and mighty . He sat in the arena, as if he was a common man like everyone else, giving off a benevolent air of geniality .

‘Kind’ was Ye Mo’s first impression of the Luosha Emperor . The man always had a smile on his face .

The power of the Luosha Kingdom must be from the Emperor’s good governance and ability to inspire loyalty from his people . Ye Mo thought . My journey to the Luosha Kingdom is not wasted – if I had the power to replace the Tianwu Emperor and learn the ways of governance from the Luosha Emperor, the Tianwu Kingdom wouldn’t remain such a lowly state .

Ever since he had escaped from the Tianwu Kingdom, two things had left a deep impression on Ye Mo – the destruction of the middle-tier East Dragon Kingdom, and the ruling ways of the Luosha Emperor . The East Dragon Kingdom was ultimately still a middle-tier kingdom – if it could be destroyed by stronger forces, it was only a matter of time before the Tianwu Kingdom suffered a similar fate .

So, as a member of the kingdom, he was willing to do what he could to make the Tianwu Kingdom stronger .

“I would never have imagined two non-students being able to fight their way into the top five,” the Luosha Emperor said calmly . “My principles remain the same – regardless of your background, if you can finish in the top three, you can win a Luosha Token and head to the Door of Desolation .

“The top three shall be decided from the next round of competition . By the drawing of lots, one fighter among you will be selected to advance automatically to the top three . ”

After the Emperor had spoken, the five competitors drew lots .

Ye Mo won . He would advance directly to the top three . Zi Yi was matched up with Luosha Institution’s third strongest fighter, Kai Long, while Luo Hun fought Luosha Institution’s second-best, Xu Wuji .

Ye Mo hadn’t expected this result . After rounds and rounds of competition, the only genuinely strong opponent that he had met was Wang Tianxiao . In the end, he didn’t even have to fight to advance into the top three .

Regardless of who he was matched up with, Zi Yi or any of the top three fighters from the Luosha Institution, he was guaranteed a tough fight .

“Who would’ve thought that I would get the Luosha Token this easily!” Ye Mo felt relieved . All he had to do now was to quietly wait for the Fall Test to end .

“How lucky, Ye Mo!”

Zi Yi smiled as she headed up the stage first .

The final two competitions weren’t held at the same time, but sequentially, Zi Yi and Kai Long first .

Zi Yi’s opponent was Luosha Institution’s third-best fighter, Kai Long, a fighter in the Heaven’s Strength Realm . Despite being in the Heaven’s Strength Realm, there was still a significant gulf in ability between the two of them and Zi Yi eventually emerged victorious .

Advanced stage of the Heaven’s Strength Realm!

This was Zi Yi’s true strength, and Ye Mo finally got a glimpse of all that she could do .

As for the second round of competition, it was no surprise that Luo Hun, who was in the advanced stage of the Heaven’s Strength Realm, emerged the victor in a landslide win where he displayed his power over Xu Tianji, who ranked second in the Luosha Rankings .

After six hours of intense battle, the Fall Test finally came to a close .

In the arena, shocked eyes were all tightly fixed on the three silhouettes in the battle arena .

They still couldn’t believe that those three had finished as the top three fighters in the Fall Test . In particular, Ye Mo, a fighter in the intermediate stage of the True Energy Realm, winning a Luosha Token was a complete surprise .

“I am extremely satisfied with this year’s Fall Test,” the Emperor said .

“With two non-students finishing in the top three, it shows that our Luosha Kingdom is filled with gifted fighters . I hereby announce that the three fighters who shall receive the Luosha Token are Ye Mo, Zi Yi, and Luo Hun . ”

As the Emperor finished speaking, the whole arena fell into a moment of silence, but some officials of the Luosha Kingdom couldn’t just sit there and watch .

“Emperor, I have something to say!” an elder on the elevated platform said .

“What is it, Xu Fu?” The Emperor frowned slightly .

“There is no question about Prince Luo Hun’s abilities – he is definitely a worthy recipient of the Luosha Token,” Xu Fu said . “Everyone witnessed Zi Yi fight plenty of strong competitors throughout all the rounds, even defeating Kai Long . She has also earned the right to receive a token . But Ye Mo was matched up with weaker fighters throughout the competition . While he may have defeated Wang Tianxiao, it doesn’t mean that he is strong enough to make it into the top three . He was just lucky . ”

“Luck is also a form of strength,” the elder in Chinese attire, who had been watching Ye Mo all this time said . “Randomized stage fights were meant to contain an element of luck . ”

Standing behind the elder in Chinese attire was an adorable girl who was also fixated on Ye Mo . Recalling Ye Mo grabbing her wrist, her cheeks started to feel flush .

“King Rong Qin is right,” the Luosha Emperor declared . “Luck is also a form of strength . Ye Mo’s strength may not be the best, but it was no easy feat for him to make it this far . I am extremely satisfied with the results of this Fall Test . Come and collect your tokens!”

The Emperor’s decision was final . Ye Mo being able to fight his way into the top three through good fortunes was also a form of strength . He wasn’t going to break the rules of the Fall Test because of it .

“Emperor, you should think twice,” Xu Fu said . “The three slots for fighters to enter the Door of Desolation are extremely rare . The purpose of the Fall Test is to send the most gifted fighters there to nurture them . But if they can’t even make it into the Door of Desolation, then all efforts will be wasted . This Ye Mo’s strength may be commendable, but given his level of talent, there is no way that he will be able to make it into the Door of Desolation . It would be better if the slot was awarded to Xu Tianji, instead of having it wasted . ”

His words made the Emperor hesitate .

Ye Mo grew enraged . What kind of Fall Test was this?

“Sir, what do you mean by this?” Ye Mo shouted indignantly . “I didn’t break any rules, and I ended up in the top three according to the regulations of the Fall Test . I have the right to receive a Luosha Token . ”

“You are Ye Mo, correct?” The elder sounded unimpressed . “I know that your journey through the competition hasn’t been easy . How about this, which city are you from? The Luosha City will give your city large amounts of training resources as a form of compensation . Xu Tianji is a once-in-a-lifetime prodigy in the Luosha Kingdom . In the Luosha Blood Pool, he absorbed a normal amount of energy from the pool and generated a General Luosha Mark . How can you compare with him?”

There were six levels of Luosha Marks – King, Queen, General, Guard, Soldier, and a normal mark . For one to be able to generate a General Luosha Mark, it symbolized a frightening amount of talent . Luo Hun had generated a Queen Luosha Mark, meaning that his gifts were on an even higher level .

“No, stop bickering,” the Luosha Emperor said firmly . “I have my principles . The top three shall remain as they are . Now, remove your sleeves, show me your Luosha Marks and receive the Luosha Tokens!”
