Supreme Lord of Towers

"Godfather and godmother, I've broken through to the Golden Core Realm. Soon, we'll probably move to the True Inheritance Region." Ye Chen announced his breakthrough to Ye Ming and Xiao Hui right after exiting seclusion.

"Good! Good!" Ye Ming trembled with excitement, feeling like he was in a dream.

To know that Ye Chen was only about twenty years old and had already reached the Golden Core Realm.

This was exceedingly rare even among the Divine Spirit Family.

As such, Ye Ming truly felt proud of Ye Chen.

...

Soon, Ye Chen used the Communication Crystal Stone to inform Elder Luo about his breakthrough.

Half an hour later, Elder Luo hurriedly arrived at Ye Chen's dwelling.

He wasn't surprised at all by how quickly Ye Chen had broken through.

After all, Ye Chen's Martial Arts Realm had already reached the Ninth Layer of True Realm. As long as he could eliminate the black material within the Profound Pill, breaking through to the Golden Core Realm was not a difficult task.

"Ye Chen, congratulations on your cultivation reaching the Golden Core Realm; you can participate in the True Disciple Selection at any time." Elder Luo said with a slight smile.

"Yes! That's precisely my intention." Ye Chen nodded in response.

The reason he had specifically called Elder Luo over was for this matter.

"Leave this matter to me to handle! Recently, a few Inner Hall Disciples have also broken through to the Golden Core Realm. They'll all be attending the True Disciple Examination three days from now. Are you available then?" Elder Luo cautiously inquired.

If it had been any other Inner Hall Disciple wanting to attend the True Disciple Examination, Elder Luo would undoubtedly have set a date for them directly, not giving them the choice.

However, Ye Chen was different.

He was currently the only one in the Yellow Cloud World who could save Bai Bing.

Even Supreme Lord Bai Zhan treated him with great respect.

Therefore, in front of Ye Chen, Elder Luo naturally had to be respectful and deferential.

If he accidentally offended Ye Chen, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Sure, I'm free three days from now, so I'll attend the examination then." Ye Chen nodded.

"Haha! Honestly, the True Disciple Examination isn't difficult for you at all! With your potential, you'll definitely pass with ease." Elder Luo laughed.

The True Disciple Examination was indeed quite challenging for ordinary Inner Hall Disciples.

Under normal circumstances, having even one person who could become a True Disciple among hundreds of Inner Hall Disciples was considered quite good.

Sometimes, even the top hundred geniuses among the Inner Hall Disciples couldn't become True Disciples.

However, for Ye Chen, who was ranked first among Inner Hall Disciples, becoming a True Disciple was almost a certainty, with no room for error.

"Elder Luo, what content does the True Disciple Examination entail?" Ye Chen couldn't help but ask curiously.

Although he was absolutely confident about becoming a True Disciple of the Human King Hall,

he had no idea about the specific procedures of the True Disciple Examination, so he wanted to know in advance.

"The True Disciple Examination consists of four parts, with the first part being a physique test.

If the tested physique is too heaven-defying, you can directly become a Core Disciple of the Human King Hall without any further examination." Elder Luo explained.

"What? Discovering a heaven-defying special physique allows one to directly become a Core Disciple?" Ye Chen was shocked.

He originally thought that to become a Core Disciple of the Human King Hall, one had to first become a True Disciple.

Apparently, the situation was different from what he had imagined.

"Exactly, in the history of the Human King Hall, there are indeed a few who, during the True Disciple Examination, were found to have heaven-defying physiques, ascending in one go, though such people are rare." Elder Luo nodded.

He told Ye Chen that those with heaven-defying physiques were usually discovered by the experts of the Human King Hall before even attending the True Disciple Examination.

Only a very few were initially overlooked.

However, these people eventually astonished everyone during the True Disciple Examination.

Such incidents have been recorded several times in the history of the Human King Hall.

"Elder Luo, what type of physique is typically required to ascend to become a Core Disciple instantly?" Ye Chen asked curiously.

"At the very least, one needs to have an Upper Special Physique, but not all Upper Special Physiques qualify one to become a Core Disciple of the Human King Hall. The attributes must be extremely powerful." Elder Luo explained.

He informed Ye Chen that even within Upper Special Physiques, there are distinctions between the strong and the weak.

For instance, Bai Bing's Ice Evil Body is top-tier among all Upper Special Physiques.

Therefore, she was earmarked as a Core Disciple of the Human King Hall from a young age.

And while some disciples of the Human King Hall have also awakened Upper Special Physiques, their power is far lesser compared to the Ice Evil Body.

These individuals ultimately also found it difficult to become Core Disciples.

However, within the True Disciples, they could practically walk sideways.

Among the top ten ranked True Disciples, several possess Upper Special Physiques.

Their strength could even rival some Divine Spirit Descendants.

"I see, I understand now." Ye Chen suddenly realized.

"Ye Chen, if I'm not mistaken, the physique you've awakened is not an Upper Special Physique but a strength-type Middle Special Physique!

Therefore, during the first round of testing, it is pretty much impossible for you to be exceptionally appointed as a Core Disciple." Elder Luo spoke honestly to Ye Chen.

In his battle with Sima Tian, Ye Chen displayed extremely terrifying physical power.

As a result, most of the Outer Hall Elders of the Human King Hall agreed that Ye Chen had awakened some kind of strength-type Middle Special Physique.

This level of physique is still not qualified to become a Core Disciple of the Human King Hall.

Of course, Ye Chen had other significant advantages too.

Such as having mastered the Ninth Layer of True Intent, and being capable of unleashing several times the mana.

These abilities were beyond the reach of other Inner Hall Disciples.

So, if he could maintain his progress, there might be a sliver of hope for him to become a Core Disciple of the Human King Hall.

In the Human King Hall, possessing an Upper Special Physique is not a strict requirement to qualify as a Core Disciple.

As long as your potential is enormous, that's all that matters.

"I indeed have not awakened an Upper Special Physique." Ye Chen showed a bitter smile at the corner of his mouth.

If Elder Luo knew that his million-path Human Emperor Body could already rival a Divine Body, he wondered what his reaction would be.
