Chapter 1494 - 1494 Test
1494 Test
“Then what’s the use of the Divination Eye?” Yu Huang asked worriedly.
Jing Kang told Yu Huang, “Prime Emperor Divine Miracle asked the blacksmith master to use his eyes as a guide to refine an Eye of Divination. The Eye of Divination can measure whether everyone has the wisdom of divination, and it can also measure the level of the power of divination in every clairvoyant’s body. In addition, when the continent encounters a calamity, the Eye of Divination will turn red at night.”
“The Eye of Divination is a gift left by Prime Emperor Divine Miracle to the Divination Continent.”
Jing Kang looked up at the top of the tower as he marveled with extreme reverence, “Prime Emperor Divine Miracle has contributed greatly to the Divination Continent. He is a true Saint.” Jing Kang turned around and lowered his eyes as he said to Yu Huang enviously, “Madam Yu Huang, all the clairvoyants are envious that you obtained Prime Emperor Divine Miracle’s recognition…”
“Be quiet,” Jing Jiaren suddenly said.
Jing Kang realized that his words were a little unnecessary, so he smiled apologetically at Yu Huang and fell silent.
It could be seen that Jing Jiaren’s status in the Jing family was really high. Even Jing Kang, her elder cousin, was so afraid of her.
While everyone was talking, a few prophets in white crane robes and tall hats like Old Madam Jing’s appeared. They stood in the cabinet corridor on different floors and stared at the participants below.
Yu Huang noticed that Old Madam Jing was standing on the highest floor, the eighth floor, while the others were standing in the corridor below.
As for the ninth floor’s cabinet corridor, there was no one there.
Yu Huang guessed that perhaps it was a restricted area and only certain clairvoyants could enter.
Old Madam Jing’s ethereal voice echoed throughout the entire tower. “Silence!”
The hall on the first floor instantly fell silent.
Everyone looked up at the top of the star tower silently, as if they were waiting for something to descend.
Old Madam Jing continued, “Please appear, Divination Eye!”
Upon hearing this, all the participants knelt down.
Yu Huang knelt down as well.
Old Madam Jing and the other prophets flew up from the cabinet corridor at the same time. Six elder-level prophets arranged themselves into a pentagram with Old Madam Jing as the array core. After the six of them flew to the top of the Divination Star Tower and knelt down in the void at the same time, they formed hand seals and shouted respectfully, “The Divination Star Tower requests the Eye of Divination to appear and test the power of divination for this year’s participants.”
Boom!
The black eye that had been floating on the top of the Divination Star Tower suddenly blinked. Then, it disappeared from the spot and appeared in the void inside the Divination Star Tower.
When the eye appeared, Jing Jiaren and the others immediately kowtowed to the eye respectfully.
After kowtowing, everyone stood up one after another.
Then, Old Madam Jing and the other prophets descended to the corridor on the second floor of the cabinet and sat down on the chairs that had been prepared. At this moment, an old man in a black suit and wearing glasses walked down from the second floor.
An old man stood under the Divination Eye and called out, “Krisius!”
Boom!
A golden light was released from the Divination Eye and instantly enveloped the blond man. The light circled around the blond man for a moment before a dignified male voice suddenly sounded. “Rank 4 Wizard.”
Upon hearing this, the old man entered the name Krisius into the white box for level-four wizards in front of everyone. After the test ended, all the participants would be randomly assigned to groups according to their test level.
The names were called out according to the age of the participants.
According to the rules, every prophet could only participate once in their lifetime. There was no minimum age limit, but there was a maximum.
As long as one was under the age of 200 and had never participated in the Divination Conference before, they could participate in the competition. The man called Krisius was a Supreme Master Beast Tamer. When he officially awakened the power of divination, he was already 100 years old. He had cultivated for more than 50 years, but was still a Level 4 Wizard.
Then, the old man called out the names of thousands of participants with an impassive expression.
The test lasted until ten o’clock in the night. Finally, Jing Kang’s name was called.
After Jing Kang walked to the Eye of Divination with his head held high, he looked up at the Eye of Divination and accepted the other party’s test. Two seconds later, Prime Emperor Divine Miracle’s voice sounded in the hall again. “Sixth-stage clairvoyant.”
“As expected of the Jing family. Jing Kang only awakened the power of divination when he was 15 years old, but he became a level-six clairvoyant in just 30 years. The Jing family’s disciples are indeed very impressive.”
Jing Kang wasn’t smug when he heard this result.
He had been outshadowed by Jing Jiaren in the Jing family all year round. Therefore, when he heard the compliments of the other participants, he didn’t feel that happy.
However, when Jing Kang returned to the Jing family’s camp, he heard Yu Huang say to him in a low voice, “How impressive. You’re already a level-six clairvoyant at such a young age.”
Upon hearing this, Jing Kang was a little flattered, but he said, “Compared to Young Master, I’m not that impressive.”
Yu Huang said, “Looking up to those more capable than you is humbling, but occasionally looking at the competitors who have been surpassed by you will be more motivating, right?”
When Jing Kang heard this, his eyes lit up and he felt enlightened.
“Madam Yu Huang, you’re right.” Jing Kang had always been under the shadow of a genius like Jing Jiaren and had almost forgotten that he was actually a talented prophet as well. After hearing Yu Huang’s pointer, he felt much better.
Hearing their conversation, Jing Jiaren suddenly turned to look at Yu Huang.
Yu Huang noticed it and asked her, “Why are you looking at me like that?”
Jing Jiaren said bluntly, “One only feels motivation when there’s pressure.” She felt that Jing Kang didn’t need to be motivated, since Jing Kang wasn’t someone who couldn’t take a blow.
Yu Huang said, “That’s true, but think about it. If an outstanding person that you can never surpass is around you, won’t you be tired? Having a goal to strive for is a good thing, but don’t neglect your own excellence.”
“Mr. Jing Kang must see you as his strongest rival. In order to catch up to you, he must be having a hard time. It’s precisely because he only has eyes for you that he ignored the competitors he successfully caught up to along the way.”
Jing Jiaren didn’t agree with Yu Huang’s opinion, but she nodded and said, “You must be the core of your group.” Whether a group of people could unite depended on the core of the group, and Yu Huang was clearly a person who was very good at bolstering the faith of her teammates.
Because she could always put herself in the shoes of her teammates.
Jing Jiaren only cared about her and the Jing family’s future.
