Chapter 125: Assessment Results

On the Pill Tower List.

Wei Zhongxian's name hung high on the first line.

Behind the many names on the list, his was the only one with an assessment grade shown as Earth Grade.

Below him, the second and third places were merely Mysterious Grade Lower Tier, showing a clear gap between them and him.

It could be said he stood alone above the masses, looking down upon all the other mountains.

He scanned the crowd before him, his heart filled with arrogance.

Wan Yao Valley is a powerful sect that controls an entire region alone.

Regarding Pill Dao proficiency alone, it is a powerful existence capable of ranking among the best even when looking across the entire Chiyan World.

As far as Pill Dao is concerned, there are not many peers among the Cultivators he considers worthy of his attention; at the very least, not one person present is qualified.

In his view, these people before him are nothing more than bumpkins who crawled out of some godforsaken corner, not worth mentioning.

Just as Wei Zhongxian was looking around with a face full of arrogance.

From the light gate, a slender and graceful figure walked out.

The many gazes cast from all around fell involuntarily upon this graceful figure, and then, looks of astonishment flashed across everyone's eyes.

What a beautiful woman!

This thought flashed through everyone's mind involuntarily.

"Hiss~ Look at the ranking list quickly!"

Just as everyone was lost in the woman's peerless beauty, a cry of surprise suddenly rang out, pulling everyone's attention back.

After coming to their senses, everyone subconsciously looked at the ranking list, and then they all revealed looks of shock.

As this woman walked out of the light gate, the name in first place had actually changed again.

"First place, Yang Wanxin, assessment grade: Heaven Grade Lower Tier."

It was actually a Heaven Grade assessment!

Seeing this grade, everyone's heartbeat suddenly skipped a beat.

On this list where Earth Grade dominated and Mysterious Grade was extremely rare, this Heaven Grade Lower Tier was so dazzling.

Before entering the Secret Realm, who among those present was not a Pill Dao Prodigy within their own faction?

Yet at this moment, they had all suffered one of the greatest setbacks of their lives.

In this assessment, the vast majority of them had only received a Yellow Grade rating, with only a handful receiving a Mysterious Grade rating.

With such results, not to mention comparing themselves to this woman named Yang Wanxin, there was not the slightest basis for comparison even before Wei Zhongxian.

Before true prodigies, they were actually so pathetic!

"Junior Sister, the Sect Master was right; you truly are the person with the most talent in Pill Dao that our Wan Yao Valley has seen in a thousand years."

"With your talent, you will definitely be able to successfully enter the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace."

While everyone was feeling dejected from the blow they had received, Wei Zhongxian suddenly let out a hearty laugh.

His voice was not masked in the slightest, instantly reaching the ears of everyone present.

Hearing this, the crowd was stunned once more.

These two were actually from the same sect!

Wan Yao Valley?

Which region is this faction from?

To be able to cultivate two such astonishing Pill Dao Prodigies at the same time!

Sensing the shock of the crowd, Wei Zhongxian felt very gratified, and then a sense of smugness followed.

The reason he said those words was precisely to achieve this result.

Just at this moment, the light gate behind them flashed, and another figure walked out.

Wei Zhongxian and Yang Wanxin noticed it immediately and subconsciously turned their heads to look.

A familiar figure came into view.

It was him!

After Yang Wanxin saw clearly the figure walking out of the light gate, she could not help but frown.

Beside her, Wei Zhongxian stared at the figure walking out of the light gate, his expression turning cold.

He had also seen Wang Jianqiang when he entered the light gate.

And it was one step ahead of them.

Calculating the time, it was exactly when the assessment time limit was reached.

In other words, this guy likely did not complete the second round of the assessment, or he barely finished it right at the deadline.

Thinking of this, a sneer flashed across his face.

"Truly, any stray cat or dog dares to come and participate in the assessment. Kid, if you're sensible, you'd better roll out of the Assessment Secret Realm early, so as not to be eliminated later and stay here to make a fool of yourself."

Wang Jianqiang had already noticed the two of them the moment he walked out of the light gate.

Hearing Wei Zhongxian's sarcastic words, Wang Jianqiang glanced at him indifferently, "Whether I will be eliminated or not is one thing, but for a forty-year-old brat like you to dare address me this way, isn't that a bit too disrespectful of your elders?"

Wang Jianqiang's words made Wei Zhongxian freeze.

How did the other party know his age?

Immediately following, this trace of doubt was suppressed by the sense of shame in his heart.

He did not know how old Wang Jianqiang actually was, nor did he want to know, assuming only that Wang Jianqiang was deliberately humiliating him.

"You are courting death!"

A chilling murderous intent flashed across his body.

Just as he was about to make a move, Yang Wanxin suddenly stopped him, "Senior Brother Wei, do not be impulsive. Fighting is strictly prohibited inside the Pill Tower; be careful of having your assessment qualifications revoked."

Hearing Yang Wanxin's words, Wei Zhongxian felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured over his head; he shivered and instantly calmed down.

Wanxin was right.

It was not worth being disqualified for the sake of a bumpkin who was destined to be eliminated.

Thinking of this, he sneered, "I won't lower myself to the level of a piece of trash destined to be eliminated."

"Oh? How do you know I am destined to be eliminated?"

"I can guess just by looking at your trashy appearance," Wei Zhongxian snorted coldly.

Wang Jianqiang was not annoyed and smiled nonchalantly, "You keep calling me trash, but shouldn't you look up at the list first? Otherwise, if you find out later that you aren't even as good as a piece of trash, wouldn't that be embarrassing?"

Wei Zhongxian did not look at the list.

At this moment, he felt as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world and burst into loud laughter, his laughter filled with thick mockery.

He did not look at the list, but the people around him seemed to have received a reminder; they snapped out of their state as onlookers and looked at the list one after another.

Immediately, bursts of exclamations erupted from the crowd.

"Look, the list has changed again!"

"Ah~ how is this possible?"

"This... is simply incredible!"

Hearing the clamor coming from all around, Wei Zhongxian's laughter gradually subsided.

He frowned as he looked at the seething crowd, then looked at Yang Wanxin beside him.

At this moment, Yang Wanxin was also maintaining the posture of looking up and staring at the list, her delicate face filled with a look of astonishment.

Seeing this scene, Wei Zhongxian's heart skipped a beat, and a sense of foreboding suddenly arose from the bottom of his heart.
