Chapter 1012 - You Can Start
Ranmgues pondered over it for a bit before smiling back. "Very well. I hope you keep your word."
"Wait, are you serious?" Kayla was taken aback by Ranmgues's words. "I'm just pulling your leg here."
Ranmgues didn't seem to care. "We still have a two-point advantage, so it's not like my Qianbel Sect lost the mine already. However, something tells me that those twins you found who knows where are not simple. Perhaps, you really will get another Divine Vein."
Let alone Kayla, even the elders of Qianbel were surprised with Ranmgues's stance. Ranmgues then looked back at the illusory formation while saying, "Well, that's just a thought of mine. Our Qianbel Sect's disciples will definitely try their best in the battles to get the mine through the points. It's just that since you promised to give the mine if you get another Divine Vein, I might as well hope they get one if they perform better than my sect."
Kayla somehow felt that she had been tricked. However, that wasn't a problem. If Ranmgues was right and the twins truly got another Divine Vein, then she would give up the next 100 years of mining happily to the other sect. "As the Lukimira Sect Master, I'll keep my word. Not that I think they can get another Divine Vein anyway."
That was the same for everyone. Sure, the twins showed an incredible performance in the Soul Power test. However, their competitors were battle-focused cultivators to start with. Besides, they didn't really battle but tricked the others into doing it against each other. In the battles, there were even some cultivators at the Middle Stage of the Saint Realm. Asking the twins to win those competitions was the same as asking them to battle an entire realm above their level. Unless some stroke of luck happens, that would be ridiculous in most minds.
Fabio was also waiting for this battle event as it was the most entertaining one. Sadly, it was still not the right time for it. He had to go through the odd categories first. With that, another spatial door appeared.
"Alright, let's continue." Another spatial door appeared as Fabio talked. "The next test is Divine Energy Capability. If you're confident in the amount of Divine Energy you can store and use, go ahead and enter this spatial door."
The Divine Energy Capability and Strength Test were some of the contests with the lowest reward, only giving Bronze Low-level Divine Veins as rewards. They didn't even have Divine Stones for those at second place and below either. Nevertheless, there was no lack of powers who would love to get their hands on that Divine Vein as almost none of them could even afford that.
Other contests with low rewards would be the Stealth and Speed tests, which only gave Bronze Middle-level Divine Veins. They were just slightly better than the Low-level ones.
Rean then looked at Roan and told him, "Well, if there's anyone who can win this, that's definitely you. Not that it will be easy with the cultivation difference, of course. Anyways, I'll just stay outside."
Roan nodded and entered the spatial door. The Divine Energy Capability test indeed favored those with the highest cultivations. After all, the higher one's realm, the more Divine Energy one's Dantian could hold. However, one must remember that the twins' dantians were capable of holding around three times more Divine Energy than normal ones.
As for why only Roan came into the test, that's because his Divine Energy Capability was slightly better than Rean. It was basically a balance if one thought about it. Rean's Soul Power was just somewhat better than Roan, after all. The reason was simple. Roan built the training routines for Rean and everyone else, making it as difficult as his own. However, in the end, no one understood his methods as well as himself. That always gave him a slightly better result when it came to Divine Energy Capability than Rean.
Another reason Roan took part in the test was how the test itself worked.
The elder responsible for it quickly came forward and explained, "This test is very simple and quick." He then pointed at a row of cubes that seemed to be affixed to the ground. "There is one formation cube for each one of you. As long as you pour your Divine Energy inside the cube, it will float while the wires attached to them will try to pull the cubes back to the ground. Easy, right?"
"There's a one-meter mark on the wall behind the cubes. Your cubes must always stay above that mark. If it falls even a single centimeter under it, the formation will turn off, making the cube fall straight away. Our staff will then mark down how long you held your cube above one meter. In the end, the one who holds it with their Divine Energy the longest wins."
It was indeed extremely simple and straightforward. It gave no room for cheating as the only thing that could make the cube go up was Divine Energy, nothing else.
The elder then warned everyone as he continued, "Even if someone else tries to help, it will be useless as the cube only accepts the Divine Energy of the first person who touched it. Any other Divine Energy reading will be completely dispersed. With that being said, don't think you have a hidden advantage just because you came with a few of your friends."
Well, everyone had already expected that. Otherwise, the assembly would just be a huge joke.
"Now then, position yourselves in front of the cubes. Don't try to disturb the other cultivators around you since it'll just be a waste of time. I guarantee it. We only want to see the cultivator with the best Divine Energy Capability, that's all."
Soon, everyone got into position.
"Good! You can start.... now!"
