Immortal Supreme: Sovereign of the Grand Dao-Chapter 38 Comprehending Sword Intent
*****************??*****************
"I am..."
"Sun Wukong!"
"..."
There was silence in the hall as the examiners looked at each other with a weird looks. f𝓇𝘦e𝑤𝘦𝚋𝒏૦ѵℯ𝒍.c𝐨𝒎
"Heh, I knew it. So you were just a nobody!" Said the inner disciple who didn't believe that Sun Wukong had any decent background.
"Alright, now release your martial spirit for us to see," the middle-aged man wanted to get this over with.
"Okey Dokey!" Sun Wukong seemed a bit excited about showing them his martial spirit.
'Hmph! It's probably just some useless martial spirit,' the inner disciple had already labeled Sun Wukong as trash in his heart.
Sun Wukong took a deep breath and released his martial spirit.
"Hah!"
A mighty aura descended on the hall as what looked like a constellation appeared behind Sun Wukong.
It was a constellation that formed the figure of what appeared to be a monkey garbed in armor standing upright with a stick on his right hand and a gourd strapped to his side.
A part of the figure in the air behind Sun Wukong glowed and it was the right palm of the monkey.
"A beast-type martial spirit?" Someone asked.
"It seems so."
"But what kind of martial spirit is that? It looks like a constellation of stars forming an image. And the usual beast martial spirit is an actual beast made up of energy but this is way different."
"Maybe it's a variant?"
The examiners discussed amongst themselves as this was the first time they had seen a martial spirit on such a form. They had no idea what kind of martial spirit it was.
Only the inner disciple kept quiet as though he didn't want Sun Wukong to turn out to be a hidden gem.
The middle-aged man who was the Elder in charge examined it closely and concluded, "This is not a variant beast spirit. But rather it is something more unique. Let's see what its rank would be, the boy isn't done summoning it."
The examiners looked on with expectations wanting to see what rank this strange martial would have.
Only their expectations were met with disappointment when they saw the rings that appeared around the martial spirit.
"Such low rank?"
"I knew it, this guy is trash! Hahaha," the inner disciple seemed a bit too happy when he saw the martial spirit's rank.
The middle-aged man glared at him and he shut his mouth up. After that, the middle-aged man looked on once more and sighed.
Only he felt that it could not be that simple because he could still sense the aura coming from Sun Wukong's martial spirit and it was more than what he had ever felt from any martial spirit of the same rank.
He sighed again and said, "Young man, it is unfortunate that your martial spirit does not meet the standards to pass."
'Rules are rules, I can not break them unless it is permitted by the higher-ups,'
Sun Wukong frowned, "What do you mean, how is the standard decided?"
"You don't know?" The middle-aged man didn't expect that Sun Wukong would be ignorant of the knowledge of martial spirit rank.
'Did he really live all his life in the mountains?' He wondered.
"The rings of light on your martial spirit, are only two, and to pass this test they would have to reach ten." prehended successfully," Arthur smiled at his success.
'And this Sword Intent is no ordinary sword intent. My Sword intent is currently at the second rank.'
'Rank two sword intent at the sixth step. That means to pass I have to comprehend up to rank four sword intent,' Arthur calculated.
He could have passed this test in an instant with his soul power but he decided against it. First of all, he didn't want to reveal that hidden card of his, and secondly, this is an opportunity to comprehend another intent and he can not let it go by.
"See, I told you he could do it," Elder Londes said to the other Elder.
"Yes, you were right. And he did it so fast, he is the fastest to comprehend sword intent using the sword stairs," the other Elder was pleasantly surprised by this feat.
The Council of Elder had made an impromptu decision to recruit disciples earlier than planned and also for the first time, make the Sword Stairs part of the test.
Usually, the second test is the test of martial spirit, which is why the sword stairs could not just replace it and was instead placed alongside it.
