Chapter 170
170 The result
The two people from the ruling Army brought Xia ping ‘an and the other 12 people, who had passed the first four stages, to another place.
They were in a bamboo forest in the camp. It was pretty tranquil. A Pagoda with a total height of seven stories, white exterior walls and light blue glazed tiles was standing in front of them.
The glazed Pagoda was very beautiful, both exquisite and solemn.
The two people from the ruling Army brought Xia ping ‘an and the others directly to the beautiful tower.
In the middle of the lobby on the first floor, there was a huge black crystal ball with a diameter of over 2 m. The black crystal ball was filled with rolling light and colorful brilliance, which looked pretty mysterious.
An old man in a white robe and a strange white hat was guarding the huge black crystal ball. He was meditating with his eyes closed. It was not until Xia Pingan and the others entered the tower that the old man opened his eyes and stood up. He glanced at Xia Pingan and the others with a pair of calm eyes.
“Are there only twelve people today?” The old man said.
“Yes, I’ll have to trouble you to take a look!” The two adjudicators who had brought Xia Pingan and the others here were very polite to the old man. They even spoke with honorifics.
“Mm, then come!” The old man walked to the front of the black crystal ball lazily as he put one hand on it and glanced over here.
“All of you can go over. Each of you just need to put a hand on the crystal ball!”
Upon hearing this, Xia Pingan and the others walked over and reached out a hand to touch the crystal ball.
Xia ping ‘an had heard from elder Jing that the last test to join the adjudicator Army was to test one’s heart with blood.
The strange crystal ball in front of him was a magical item called the soul crystal. The old man in white was the chosen priest of the dark War god cult. In the dark War god cult, the chosen priest was someone who could communicate with the dark War god using their soul. They were the most devout believers of the dark War god and were also called the soul ferryman.
As soon as Xia Pingan placed his hand on the huge crystal ball, it immediately produced a strange suction force. Xia Pingan’s hand was sucked in by a suction cup and could not move at all. At the same time, the light mist in the huge black crystal ball rolled and turned into 12 sharp spikes, extending out from the crystal ball.
Xia Pingan only felt a slight pain in his palm before the sharp thorn inside the huge crystal ball pierced a small hole in it. A drop of blood was sucked into the huge crystal ball.
It wasn’t just Xia ping ‘an. The palms of the others were also pierced.
our God walks in the darkness, and there is light in the darkness. Our God raises the sword in his hand, and only then will peace and tranquility descend upon the world! The chosen priest in the White robe murmured in a deep voice as if he was sleep talking. A dark red mist surged out of the black crystal ball and wrapped Xia ping ‘an and the others.
Xia Pingan tried his best to keep himself awake, but as soon as the black mist wrapped around him, he felt as if he was starting to fuse with the realm bead. His eyelids became heavier and heavier, and he felt like he was going to fall asleep.
In a daze, Xia ping ‘an heard a voice that seemed to come from the horizon.
The voice appeared directly in Xia Pingan’s mind.
“What’s your name?”
“Where are you from?”
“What God do you believe in?”
“Did you join the judgement Army under someone’s orders?”
“Do you want to harm the great Shang and the dark Battle God cult?”
……
Xia Pingan didn’t know what happened after that. In a daze, he fell asleep. His body and mind were relaxed, and he was in a sweet dream.
Xia Pingan didn’t know how long it had been before he woke up.
Xia Pingan woke up and saw that the dark red mist that had enveloped everyone had dissipated.
Everyone’s hands were still on the huge crystal ball.
Among the 12 people, four of them had a dark red light of the divine Bramble throne above their heads. The other eight, including himself, had nothing above their heads. Qu youqian had also been eliminated.
The female Summoner who had summoned the snake also had such a light above her head. The other three male Summoners had the same light above their heads.
The four people who had been selected all had excited and excited expressions on their faces, while the others had bitter and helpless expressions.
Four out of almost four hundred people had been chosen. It was really one out of a hundred.
Xia Pingan had already guessed the outcome, but he felt a little suffocated and disappointed. The contrast was too great. He had come with confidence and performed well in the first four stages, but he had not expected to be eliminated in the last stage.
This kind of feeling was similar to when one was full of confidence to enter the Summer Palace Vocational Technical College before the college entrance examination, only to realize that one had failed the exam when the results were released.
F * ck, how did the dripping blood heart pick the person in this last round? why was he still rejected?
Xia Pingan was extremely depressed!
there are only four people selected for the judgement Army this time. Those with the divine thorn throne above their heads will stay. The rest of you, come with me! The arrogant young man in his twenties said to Xia Pingan and the others.
Xia ping ‘an and the others had no choice but to leave with the young man.
However, just as Xia Pingan reached the exit of the pagoda, a voice suddenly rang in his mind.
“Congratulations, young man. You’ve been selected to join the dark shadow Guard of the ruling Army. The dark shadow Guard is the most secretive existence in the ruling Army, and the identities of the people who join are kept a secret. Only the top elite Summoners in the ruling Army are qualified to join. Among the 12 people today, you’re the only one selected to join the dark shadow Guard of the ruling Army. Don’t leave Shangjing for the next few days. Find time to go to the fearless house in hundred spirits Lane. Someone will tell you what to do there,”
It was the voice of the chosen priest. Xia Pingan’s heart trembled. He didn’t turn around, but used his long-distance vision ability to look behind him. He saw the old man looking at his back with deep eyes.
When Xia ping ‘an looked over with his long-distance vision ability, the corners of the priest’s mouth curled into an imperceptible smile. As if he had felt Xia ping’ an’s ” gaze “, the priest nodded slightly, as if he was ” praising ” Xia ping ‘an for not turning back.
The other seven people who had left with Xia Pingan still looked the same, but they were all disappointed and helpless.
A few minutes later, Xia Pingan and the other eight were sent out from the side door of the adjudicating Army’s main camp.
From morning until now, it was already noon.
sigh, I didn’t expect that we wouldn’t be able to pass the last stage. It’s too difficult to recruit people for the judgement Army. qu youqian shook his head and sighed as they walked out of the camp. He looked at Xia ping ‘an and asked, ” what plans do you have, brother Xia? ”
