Chapter 982: God’s Arrival

While they stood amid the noisy crowd, Su Ping turned his head and asked Joanna who was by his side, “Do you know how to check divine quality?”

With glittering eyes, Joanna said, “As expected of the Heaven Path Institute. The last test is about divine quality. If that is the case, talent and bloodline would be meaningless. All lives are equal. No wonder the Heaven Path Institute could motivate all its disciples to sacrifice themselves for the sake of victory. That’s the spirit of the Heaven Path Institute!”

Su Ping was speechless after looking at Joanna, whose face was full of admiration. He asked, “Did you hear my question?”

Joanna turned her head and looked at him. “There’s an ancient method that can be used to examine your divine qualities as well as your other qualities, such as your demonic quality, miscellaneous quality, and beast quality. However, that method was lost ages ago. Another way is to run a test with the Golden Stone.

“The Golden Stone is a natural treasure born in the Eye of the Realm. It’s also known as God’s Tear.”

She then said softly, “I know of a Superior God who has a Golden Stone. Unfortunately, we’re currently in the Archean Divinity and cannot go back. Otherwise, we could borrow it from her.”

“So to speak, we have to wait for the test now,” said Su Ping helplessly.

Joanna nodded. She glanced at him and Tang Ruyan before she added, “I checked my divine quality years back. I should be able to pass it, unless they find that I’m an unregistered participant. But I don’t know about you two. Considering what I understand from your condition, you may not have enough divine quality, but your demonic quality is definitely off the charts.”

“…”

Su Ping could not help but roll his eyes. Is it really smart for someone to mock their boss like that?

“Never mind. It won’t be a big deal even if I can’t pass. You’ll pass anyway; at least one of us will be admitted. Speaking of which, your identity as a reincarnator won’t be found out, will it?”

Su Ping was not really determined to join the Heaven Path Institute. He wasn’t really anxious.

Joanna slightly shook her head and said, “That old man was so strong that he must have realized my identity as a reincarnator. After all, reincarnations can be easily spotted by those who are above a certain level. Their eyes can see through time and space and easily notice the link between my body and my original self.

“However, he took me in nonetheless, which means that reincarnations may be accepted too, as long as I can pass the third level of the trial.”

“That’s great.” Su Ping nodded, troubled feelings arose. He could more or less understand the Ascendant State power, but the unbelievable abilities typical of Celestials and above were completely enigmas to him.

The nearby Tang Ruyan was slightly disappointed after hearing what Joanna said. However, she was secretly comforted and even delighted, not because she was gloating, but only because she had found one thing in common between herself and Su Ping.

The majority of those people are Star Lords. Most of them will probably graduate in the Ascendant State…?Su Ping looked around with mixed feelings.

Ascendants in the Federation were bigshots that mastered a huge region—

And yet, they were trained in batches at the Heaven Path Institute.

Everybody was involved in a heated discussion. Some people seemed to know a lot about divine quality, and gave long speeches about the subject. Su Ping listened to them and felt that he had picked up a lot of new knowledge.

The crowd began to fizzle down several hours later. Many of them entered the temple in groups ranging between three to five.

The temple was extremely vast; it had enough seats to accommodate a hundred thousand people.

Su Ping and the others found a place to rest too. However, conflicts were inevitable when that many people were gathered. Several middle-ranked gods had a quarrel about their seats.

There were guards in the temple that forbade the people present fighting, so their quarrel came to a peaceful end.

“I didn’t know that gods could be that condescending!” Tang Ruyan was obviously infuriated. All the gods thought that she and Su Ping were Joanna’s slaves because they were humans. They were quite unfriendly, so she told them to f*ck off. They were still very arrogant even after they knew she and Su Ping were participants.

Su Ping was already used to this. He would fight with his tongue since he was unable to do so with his fist.

He wasn’t scared of anyone when it came to oral fights. After having been a keyboard warrior for years, he found the gods adorably childish.

“Nobody would dare to mess with the high-ranked gods. They mock us only because we’re strong enough,” said Su Ping as he comforted Tang Ruyan.

One of the groups among the participants was exclusively made of high-ranked gods; the other gods made way for them. They revered the high-ranked gods more than poor human beings respected billionaires; they acted like beggars in front of nobles.

“There’s an Ancestral God in each of the high-ranked clans. Ancestral Gods can easily destroy a middle-ranked clan and remove it from the Realm of Gods. They can even eliminate them from the origin of their bloodline and curse them with their blood!” Joanna said in a low voice. She also gave a stern look at the high-ranked gods solemnly too. She would have given up if they went to see her, looking for trouble.

She didn’t have a choice. If any of the high-ranked gods was beloved by their clan’s Ancestral God, it would be very easy for the latter to wipe out another clan in fury.

Nobody would dare disrespect high-ranked gods under such a horrifying threat, unless they were high-ranked gods too.

Is this what ultimate power feels like??Su Ping thought. The high-ranked gods were like the royal family among the gods, whereas the middle-ranked gods were just regular nobles. How could a noble not revere or fear a member of the royal family?

Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.

Su Ping didn’t stay idle in those ten days. He was in a noisy environment, so he decided to establish a barrier; Joanna was there looking after him too. He was able to consider his secret technique about strength exertion. He named it “God’s Arrival”!

Unfortunately, I don’t have a chance to confirm my speculation, but I should be able to exert ninety percent of my strength! It’s not exactly as good as achieving the hundred percent as I had originally hoped. However, ninety percent should be enough for me. Still, even if I can exert all my strength, I won’t be able to use that technique in reality. After all, I’ll have to let my pets carry me away if I completely run out of strength; I won’t have any remaining strength to defend myself,?Su Ping thought.

Compared to the upcoming test, he was actually more eager to try out and confirm the new technique he had created.

Once the ten days passed, a noisy hubbub was then heard, coming from outside the temple. All the people inside the temple detected that a lot of people with powerful auras on par with theirs had arrived.

Some walked out of the temple, then saw a lot of attractive people outside. There were both male and female. Males were handsome, and females were exceptionally beautiful. All of them seemed to be the center of the world when they stood there.
