Chapter 15 Spiritual Power Test, Fifth Rank Knight!
Li Xin felt like she had heard something terrifying.
Good heavens, broken through to Third Rank Knight?
Mastered internal spiritual energy?
Are you using cheats?
Just a month ago, your external spiritual energy was barely over a hundred, just managing to reach the Quasi-Knight level. Now you're saying your external spiritual energy broke through two hundred, and you've mastered internal spiritual energy?
Do you think I'd believe that?
I don't believe it!
I really don't believe it!
"Little brother, if you've started going mad because you rejected that powerful Knight, then I'll summon Rose again right now, take us back, and you can go become his disciple."
"Putting other things aside, at least your mental health needs to be sound..."
Ye Ling: "..."
Seriously, is that how you see me?
But it was understandable. Doubling external spiritual energy in a month, even awakening internal spiritual energy to become a genuine Knight – anyone would find that hard to believe!
"It's fine, let's just try it first." Li Xin shook her head, said no more, and just led Ye Ling away, heading towards the testing area.
Soon, they arrived at the testing ground.
At this moment, there was only one person in the testing ground, a middle-aged man with a zombie-like face, sitting there, seemingly researching something. In front of him were sheets of paper heavily smeared with black ink, and crumpled paper balls discarded out of dissatisfaction.
"Teacher Ye Hua." Li Xin led Ye Ling down. Seeing Ye Hua, she greeted him.
Ye Hua turned his head, saw it was Ye Ling and Li Xin, and merely nodded silently.
He wasn't interested in them right now; he wanted to properly work on his skills and perfect them.
This was his life goal. Since his cultivation level had always been low, he might as well choose another way to pass on his ideals.
Seeing Ye Hua's attitude, Ye Ling didn't mind; he was used to it.
This "genius" who would be changed by Long Haochen in the future was currently uninterested in anything external due to personality and talent issues, except when teaching those students.
Yes, that's how devil instructors were.
Soon, the two walked up to the testing stone pillar. Li Xin took a step back and said: "Let's test external spiritual energy first."
Ye Ling nodded, then silently stepped forward, taking out a Mystic Iron Sword capable of withstanding two hundred points of external spiritual energy. The Angel's Holy Sword had a certain amplification effect; using it wouldn't show his true level.
Gripping the iron sword, Ye Ling didn't hesitate and struck towards the testing stone!
One strike.
That terrifying strike was instantly absorbed by the testing stone. In an instant, it transformed into a special light that continuously surged upwards.
Finally, the corresponding number appeared on the digital display at the top.
[170]
Yes, one hundred and seventy points of external spiritual energy.
Seeing this, Li Xin was stunned. Good heavens, a month ago, Ye Ling's spiritual energy seemed to be one hundred and twenty points, right?
He went to the Odin Branch Hall for a month? And his strength reached this level?
A direct increase of fifty points?
Impossible, right?
"Little brother, is this testing stone... broken?" Li Xin asked incredulously.
"No, it's my real strength." Ye Ling shook his head.
Li Xin: "..."
Good heavens, fifty points of spiritual energy. Did you use cheats this month? You reached a level of spiritual energy in one month that might have taken a year to cultivate before?
Truly terrifying!
Li Xin didn't know what to say. A thousand words converged into one number.
6
(TN: 666 is internet slang for 'awesome' or 'impressive')
Really 6.
"Sigh, your improvement is truly terrifying. I estimate becoming a genuine Knight this year won't be a problem," Li Xin sighed. Ye Ling, who used to need her protection, was now catching up to her!
Hearing Li Xin's words, Ye Hua on the side also silently turned around, looking at the two of them curiously?
"No need for this year." Ye Ling shook his head: "I already am one."
After speaking, he silently walked towards the side, towards the stone used for testing internal spiritual energy. He reached out his hand.
He placed his hand on it.
Seeing this, although Li Xin still found it somewhat unbelievable, she nevertheless walked forward. Perhaps there really was some hope?
Of course, the possibility wasn't high. According to what they had learned, only after reaching the peak of Quasi-Knight, meaning two hundred points of external spiritual energy, could one awaken their internal spiritual energy.
Ye Hua also silently walked forward at this moment. He planned to observe Ye Ling's specific actions and see what the situation was.
Simultaneously, he also intended to verify some things of his own.
Soon, Ye Ling felt the spiritual power within his body being summoned, pouring into the stone. Instantly, the testing spirit stone flashed with an extremely dense light, illuminating the entire hall!
"He really awakened it?" Li Xin was greatly shocked, looking intently ahead. When she tested her internal spiritual energy, the light was similar, but the density of Ye Ling's light was considerably more terrifying than hers had been!
This astonished Li Xin. At this moment, she believed it.
So, her little brother wasn't boasting, he was genuinely formidable!
As for Ye Hua, he was carefully sensing Ye Ling's internal spiritual energy from the side, calculating what level it had reached.
Ten points.
Twenty points.
Thirty points.
Fifty points.
Finally, it shot straight past one hundred points!
???
Good heavens, Ye Hua was dumbfounded.
One hundred points of internal spiritual energy?
What kind of operation is this?
Hasn't it only been a month?
How did your internal spiritual energy cultivate so quickly?
However, one hundred was not the limit.
In the next moment, the light within became increasingly terrifying.
It surged until it reached the level of one hundred and fifty points of internal spiritual energy before stopping.
Hmm...
Right now, Ye Ling had one hundred and seventy points of external spiritual energy and one hundred and fifty points of internal spiritual energy, adding up to three hundred and twenty points of spiritual power, equivalent to a Third Rank, Fifth Level Knight.
Li Xin was currently a Sixth Level Knight, meaning that Ye Ling was now just one step away from Li Xin???
At this moment, Li Xin also sensed this situation. A trace of astonishment flashed in her eyes, and she looked at Ye Ling with some surprise.
She discovered that she seemed unable to see through Ye Ling anymore.
This strength, this spiritual power?
What was going on?
Soon, Ye Ling finished awakening. A smile flashed in his eyes as he silently walked forward and said: "How about it, Sister Xin'er? I didn't lie to you!"
"What's going on with you? How did your strength suddenly skyrocket threefold in just one month?"
Li Xin really didn't know what to say anymore. All she could say was, terrifying!
"Haven't I told you many times before? Your little brother, me, is so handsome that I've been favored by the God of Light, hence the improvement to this level over the past month."
Ye Ling touched his face, a faint smile playing on his lips, saying this without any shame.
Originally, Li Xin hadn't quite believed it, but at this moment, she suddenly started to believe, asking: "Really?"
"Of course it's fake. Sister Xin'er, you're really silly enough to believe something like that?" Ye Ling waved his hand, feigning helplessness.
"Ye Ling!" Li Xin gritted her teeth!
