Lack of talent? I'll buy a year's worth of cultivation for one dollar!

Taixu Square.

The Xuan Tian Water Mirror hangs high, clearly projecting the scene within the illusion.

Situ Kong sat in the seat of the deputy examiner.

He looked into the water mirror and saw Shen Qingci protecting Su Yu behind her, shielding him from all danger.

His eyes were icy cold.

He didn't have an attack here.

Instead, he slowly stood up and smoothed out the wrinkles on his purple-gold python robe.

Turn around.

We left the bustling square.

He walked towards the deepest part of the Xuanhuang Dao Court.

After passing through layers of spatial arrays, we arrived in front of a massive floating island suspended in the endless void.

Martial Peak Hall.

This is the place where Wu Ji, the chief examiner of this grand examination and the guardian general of the nation, has been cultivating in seclusion.

Situ Kong stopped outside the palace.

He took a deep breath, suppressing all his hostility and murderous intent.

"Your subordinate, Situ Kong, requests an audience with the Divine General."

Situ Kong's voice was calm and respectful.

Inside the main hall.

There was a moment of deathly silence.

Then, a voice, seemingly coming from the end of the long river of time, resounded in Situ Kong's true spirit.

"Enter."

The door opened silently.

Situ Kong lowered his head and stepped inside.

The main hall was empty and devoid of any decorations.

Only one middle-aged man dressed in coarse linen clothes sat cross-legged in the void in the center of the hall.

Martial God General.

The other shore realm is a great power.

He didn't open his eyes, but just sat there quietly, and the underlying rules around him involuntarily submitted and flowed.

"What is it?"

The Martial God General's tone was calm and composed.

Situ Kong knelt on one knee.

"Your subordinate would like to ask the Divine General for leniency."

"Within the Realm of the Great Void, there is a cultivator in the early stages of the Primordial Chaos named Xiao Wangchuan."

"I want to teach him a lesson."

Situ Kong did not hide anything and directly stated his purpose.

Before the realm of the other, any lie is futile.

The Martial God General slowly opened his eyes.

There was not a trace of emotion in those eyes.

"Nonsense."

The voice of the Martial God General carried an undeniable weight of authority.

"I am in charge of the grand examination, and you expect me to break the rules of the illusion for the sake of an ant in the early stages of the Primordial Chaos?"

"Situ Kong."

Do you really think my position is something I can use to get you involved in jealousy and rivalry?

The pressure from the Other Shore Realm was only a trace.

But it caused Situ Kong's true spirit to tremble violently.

But he did not back down.

He gritted his teeth and flicked his wrist.

A fruit radiating a rich, primordial chaos appeared in his palm.

【The Limitless Chaos Fruit】.

This is a top-tier treasure that would make even the most powerful monsters in the Boundless Realm envious.

"My Lord, please calm your anger."

Situ Kong held the fruit high.

"I have no intention of breaking the rules."

"The illusion is dangerous, so the judges added some tests to select truly talented individuals."

He paused.

They've played their last card.

"Before leaving home, my grandfather, Situ Zhan, gave me these instructions."

"If you encounter the divine general, please give him his greetings."

Situ Zhan.

The pillar of the Situ family is also a reclusive old monster at the Other Shore Realm.

The Martial God General looked at the Chaos Fruit.

Listening to Situ Kong mention the elders.

A thoughtful look flashed in his deep eyes.

After a while.

He waved his sleeve.

The Boundless Chaos Fruit silently disappeared into his sleeve.

"The rules of the illusionary realm cannot be violated."

The Martial God closed his eyes again.

"but."

"The Star Lord of the Judges has the authority to conduct random practical assessments of the candidates."

"remember."

"Do not endanger lives."

"Do not leave any evidence against us."

Upon hearing this, a look of wild joy flashed in Situ Kong's eyes.

He kowtowed deeply.

"Understood!"

"Thank you, Your Excellency!"

Exit the Martial Peak Hall.

A cruel smile curled at the corners of Situ Kong's lips.

With the god's tacit approval, he could now act with a legitimate reason.

He raised his hand.

Two hidden talismanic symbols lit up at his fingertips.

Ignoring the spatial barriers, they entered the Illusory Realm.

"Tian Kui, Tian Ji" (天魁，天机).

Situ Kong's voice resounded in the true spirits of the two referees.

"Go to Meteor Abyss."

"Find someone named Xiao Wangchuan."

"Cripple him."

"As long as I'm alive, I'll take responsibility if anything goes wrong."

Deep within the illusion.

Two middle-aged men dressed in star-patterned robes opened their eyes simultaneously.

Lord of Tiankui Star.

Lord of the Heavenly Secret Star.

Among the Thirty-Six Heavenly Generals, they are ranked in the top two.

However, their true cultivation level had already surpassed the peak of the Primordial Chaos Realm and entered the early stage of the Limitless Realm.

Although they still hold the title of Star Lord in the Daoist Court's organizational structure.

But in reality, he is already a genuine deputy deity general!

"The orders of General Situ."

The Heavenly Star Master stood up and twisted his neck.

"Is someone at the early stage of the Primordial Chaos realm really worth the effort of two Limitless Realm experts like us?"

The Heavenly Star Master's expression remained calm.

"If you take someone's money, you're obligated to solve their problems."

"The Situ family is powerful; let's give them face."

"Let's go."

The two figures flashed and directly merged into the underlying rules of the illusion.

Meteorite Abyss.

Su Yu and Shen Qingci were walking in a desolate stone forest.

Shen Qingci walked ahead.

The Star Domain opened, keeping all the Nether Beasts and traps three zhang away.

Su Yu was half a step behind.

His expression was calm.

Just then.

hum-

The surrounding space froze without warning.

The originally dark sky was instantly covered by two enormous primordial energies.

At this moment, the suppression rules of the illusion were forcibly torn open.

Two figures slowly descended from the void.

Tiankui.

Heavenly secrets.

Two deputy divine generals at the early stage of the Wuji realm, wielding the privileges of referees, blocked their path.

Shen Qingci stopped in her tracks.

Her delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"What do you two star lords mean by this?"

Shen Qingci's voice was cold and aloof.

"Referees are not allowed to interfere with the candidates' routes without cause; this is a rule of the major exams."

The Lord of Tiankui Star looked at Shen Qingci and smiled slightly.

"Lord Shen, you flatter me."

"We are not interfering with the route."

"Instead, we conduct random practical assessments of the candidates based on the rules of the major examination."

His gaze passed over Shen Qingci and landed on Su Yu.

His eyes revealed an undisguised mockery.

"General Xiao."

"Hiding behind a woman won't get you a spot as a deputy general."

"Come out and take three of our moves."

"As long as you don't die, the primordial imprint of this area belongs entirely to you."

This is not an assessment at all.

This is blatant targeting.

The initial stage of Wuji (the primordial state) corresponds to the initial stage of Hongmeng (the primordial

Don't even mention three moves.

Half a move is enough to annihilate a normal early-stage Primordial Chaos cultivator, both in body and soul.

Shen Qingci's face instantly darkened.

She knew that Situ Kong was definitely behind this.

"His cultivation level isn't high enough, so I'll take the test for him."

Shen Qingci stepped forward.

The primordial essence of the stars at the peak of the Primordial Chaos realm erupted with a thunderous roar.

The Celestial Star Lord shook his head.

"Lord Shen, you are also an assistant examiner, you should know the rules."

"Taking an exam for someone else will result in disqualification."

"not to mention."

The Lord of the Heavenly Secrets Star took a step forward.

The pressure from the initial stage of the Limitless Realm was like a materialized mountain, directly crashing into Shen Qingci's Star Domain.

boom!

Shen Qingci let out a muffled groan.

His face turned pale instantly.

Although she was at the peak of the Hunyuan realm, she possessed extraordinary talent.

But facing two true Limitless Realm beings, and the other side even used the referee's illusionary realm authority.

She had absolutely no chance of winning.

"you……"

Shen Qingci gritted her teeth and desperately maintained the Star Domain.
