Martial Conquest of the Nine Desolates-Chapter 498 - 484: Assessment Content

Before the joint examination of the four main halls of the Holy Palace this time, even the Palace Master of the Holy Palace made a move, so everyone knew that this joint examination was definitely not simple, and disciples of all four main halls were almost fully mobilized.

When Xiao Ye followed the Ten Law Enforcement Elders to the venue of the joint examination, he was immediately stunned.

He saw a continent floating in mid-air like a dark cloud, with deafening noises coming from above.

"It is indeed Taiyi Palace, what a grand gesture!" Xiao Ye’s face was filled with emotion.

Back when he first entered the True Spirit Continent in East State, in King Xingyun’s Royal City, he had also seen such methods, but making a continent float in mid-air was obviously much stronger than King Xingyun’s methods.

"Do not talk randomly, and do not look around everywhere. Those who are here today are all significant figures!" The Great Elder solemnly cautioned, before leading the many disciples towards the floating continent in the air.

Since Xiao Ye arrived too late, when the people from Yellow Hall reached the floating continent, they found that the surroundings were already crowded with people, there were dense groups like a sea of people.

Xiao Ye and the others made great efforts to squeeze through the bustling crowd and reached the central area of the continent.

Looking around, Xiao Ye saw many spectator seats and numerous fighting stages, palaces grouped from afar, and many unique buildings that Xiao Ye had never seen before.

"Disciples participating in the examination, find your seats and sit down first, and wait for the start of the examination." After the Great Elder finished speaking, he led the other nine Law Enforcement Elders towards the seats reserved for elders.

The disciples participating in the examination, being contestants, have their own designated seats arranged according to the status of their sub-halls.

Xiao Ye looked and immediately noticed that the seats for Yellow Hall disciples were very inconspicuous, located in the corners of the crowd.

As Xiao Ye and many disciples walked over and sat down, he looked towards the distance and saw that apart from them, there were three large groups in the distance. Each disciple from these groups was powerful, emanating a majestic aura, clearly all being figures who had ascended to King Martial.

Especially the disciples from Earth Hall representing the assessment, their aura was particularly astonishing, each one’s eyes extremely sharp, like blades that could cut through the void, causing a shock to the spirit.

"Hmph, you wastrels from Yellow Hall, I advise you to retreat early. It’s better than embarrassing yourselves here," said an Earth Hall disciple with long flowing hair and a robust build, noticing Xiao Ye’s gaze and looking towards him with a scornful smile at the corner of his mouth.

Xiao Ye’s expression darkened upon hearing this, as this sort of thing would be unpleasant for anyone.

"Hmph!" Xiao Ye snorted coldly and withdrew his gaze.

He had been with Yellow Hall for a while now and knew full well the awkward status of Yellow Hall disciples within the entire Tianyi Sacred Palace. Every year during the assessment, very few disciples passed, always being the butt of jokes by disciples from other halls.

"This time, I must break into the ranks of Earth Hall, I cannot let Elder Tian Jiu down!" Xiao Ye clenched his fists and thought determinedly.

Subsequently, Xiao Ye once again surveyed his surroundings and quickly realized that the disciples from Heavenly Hall and Main Hall were absent.

Disciples from Main Hall were all monsters who naturally wouldn’t participate in such assessments, but why were the disciples from Heavenly Hall also absent?

"Could it be that to enter the Main Hall, Heavenly Hall disciples need to undergo special examinations?" Xiao Ye speculated in his heart, then stopped pondering further; these matters were still far off for him, what mattered most now was passing the Earth Hall examination.

Thinking this, Xiao Ye’s gaze shifted to the Law Enforcement Elder seats of the Earth Hall, and after searching briefly, he spotted Tian Jiu.

The stern-faced Tian Jiu felt Xiao Ye’s gaze and looked back, his eyes full of questions, subsequently seeking to gauge Xiao Ye’s confidence.

Xiao Ye’s face broke into a brilliant smile and nodded to Tian Jiu, his confident manner making Tian Jiu puzzled.

He didn’t know about the laborious four months Xiao Ye spent in the Yellow Dragon Island Space, how he endured that time. Although he couldn’t be sure of his current cultivation, his strength made even the current Little White extremely cautious.

Whoosh!

Right at that moment, a figure in tattered robes covered in blood, landed on the continent from midair, walking towards the seating area of the Yellow Hall’s disciples participating in the examination, immediately causing a wave of ridicule.

"Ha ha, this disciple from the Yellow Hall is really funny, joining the examination with injuries!"

"Yes, so ignorant, it looks like we have quite a show to watch in this joint examination!"

...

Listening to the surrounding sneers and the peculiar glances, Fang Hao trembled with anger; he had prepared a lot for this day, originally he should be receiving worship and admiration.

Fang Hao gave Xiao Ye a resentful look, then found an inconspicuous place to sit among the Yellow Hall disciples’ seats.

"This guy really hasn’t given up, still participating even in this condition, seems like he’s quite angered by this," Xiao Ye let out a slight smile, then no longer paid much attention.

As time passed, the number of people on the continent increased, the noise reached up to the Nine Heavens, the din was overwhelming.

Just when Xiao Ye was becoming somewhat impatient, the buzzing sound of a bell echoed once again, thrilling all the disciples as it signified the imminent start of the joint examination.

Boom!

Only to see the elder seats of Heavenly Hall, Earth Hall, and Xuanzi Hall burst into intense light, huge columns of light shooting up into the Nine Heavens, followed by a commanding voice that rang out: "Disciples participating in the examination, choose the sub-hall you wish to enter, go to the elder seats to receive the examination content."

Whoosh!

Instantly, all the disciples participating in the exam were thrilled, their figures flickering, rushing towards the elder seats of the sub-hall they wished to enter.

"Finally starting!" Xiao Ye was full of excitement.

In the Yellow Dragon Island Space, although only four months had passed in the outside world, he had endured lengthy years in the third layer of the Time Tower, his cultivation and Slaughter Law advancing together, causing a miraculous reaction making his presence feel rather ethereal. After experiencing a King Tribulation that wasn’t quite a King Tribulation, his strength surged tremendously.

However, Xiao Ye faintly felt that he hadn’t truly ascended to King Martial yet.

"This time, not only must I enter Earth Hall, but I also must truly ascend to King Martial!" Xiao Ye’s eyes interwoven with brilliant divine light, stood up.
