Chapter 157: Chapter 136 Capturing the Flying Beast



It truly was a combat assessment! Indeed, it was a life-and-death assessment!

This third round of assessment involved climbing the ninety-nine suspended peaks of the "Sky Extreme Cliff," and it even relied on scaling the "Sky-Scaling Vines" that hung from the mountains.

Just by looking at the screen, the candidates could see the giant vines swinging violently in the wind, let alone using these vines to continuously climb towards other Floating Peaks.

Even between the two closest Floating Peaks, there was a distance of more than ten meters, and one had to jump to get from one "Sky-Scaling Vine" to another. This was leaping in the air thousands of feet high— a careless move could mean missing the vine and falling down!

According to Fairy Jia Luo, if anyone fell, no one would save them. These participants truly faced the risk of losing their lives during the assessment!

This made many of the candidates begin to feel afraid.

They had heard that the final real combat assessment for the selection of true disciples was dangerous, but they did not expect it to be so perilous!

And the following words from Fairy Jia Luo caused these people\'s faces to change dramatically once again.

Fairy Jia Luo continued, "Climbing the \'Sky-Scaling Vines\' to reach the Floating Peaks is only the third round of assessment, and this is still relatively simple. The fourth round of assessment is the most difficult and the most dangerous combat challenge."

"These ninety-nine Floating Peaks are gathering places for Flying Beasts. The fourth round of assessment is to capture the Flying Beasts on these Floating Peaks!"

"To capture the Flying Beasts, subdue them, and then ride these Flying Beasts as they fly down to a specified final area— that counts as successfully passing the fourth round of assessment!"

"The scores for the fourth round will also be decided based on the rank of the Flying Beasts you\'ll have captured!"

Hum!

The words of Fairy Jia Luo made everyone look towards the gigantic screen, where they could all see Flying Beasts constantly soaring among the ninety-nine Floating Peaks.

The following fourth round of assessment would actually be to capture these Flying Beasts?

From the sheer size of these Flying Beasts— some tens of meters long— it was evident that the beasts flying below were level seven, eight, ten, and eleven creatures, and the beasts flying at the very top of the Floating Peaks were even comparable to the Great Demons at the Spirit Sea Realm!

Equivalent to the Spirit Sea Realm Great Demons!

To capture them was out of the question— not being killed by these Great Demons was fortunate enough!

And riding these Flying Beasts down was also extremely dangerous. If the Beasts went berserk and flung them from high up in the air, they could truly lose their lives!

This fourth round of assessment was indeed more difficult and more dangerous than the third!

At this moment, at the top of the mountain gate plaza, those Spirit Sea Realm disciples of Taixuan Sect standing behind the Rotating Pill Realm masters shook their heads when they heard Fairy Jia Luo\'s explanation of the third and fourth rounds of assessment.

"Climbing Sky Extreme Peak and capturing flying beasts, such an assessment is indeed too dangerous for these disciples in the True Qi Realm!"

"Not just them, even we, who possess the Flight Divine Ability, could get injured or even killed by a Great Demon when entering the Sky Extreme Peak. You must know that there are high-order Great Demons inside equivalent to the later stages of the Spirit Sea Realm!"

"They can only capture flying beasts at those Floating Peaks below, aiming for beasts of the seventh, eighth, or even tenth and eleventh order. They absolutely must not recklessly enter the upper regions of the Floating Peaks dominated by Great Demons!"

Fairy Jia Luo glanced at the crowd, buzzing with discussion, then turned her gaze toward the young ones in the assessment area.

"The third and fourth round assessments taking place in the ninety-nine Floating Peaks of \'Sky Extreme Cliff\' will have the following methods for obtaining Assessment Scores."

"The ninety-nine Floating Peaks of \'Sky Extreme Cliff\' are ranked from low to high, starting from The First Floating Peak, The Second Floating Peak, all the way to The Ninety-Ninth Floating Peak!"

"The higher the Floating Peak, the greater the difficulty in climbing, and the more powerful and difficult to capture the flying beasts inside."

"Your scores for the third and fourth rounds of the assessment will be determined based on the height of the Floating Peak you climb and the rank of the flying beasts you capture."

"For the third round climbing scores, you will receive ten times the Assessment Score of the Floating Peak you climb to—for instance, if you climb to The Twenty-Eighth Floating Peak, you will receive two hundred eighty Assessment Points; climbing to The Sixty-Seventh Floating Peak will yield six hundred seventy Assessment Points."

"The fourth round scoring for capturing flying beasts is also related to the height of the Floating Peak; the thirty-three lowest Floating Peaks contain seventh to ninth order flying beasts, capturing any from these will get you one thousand Assessment Points; the middle thirty-three Floating Peaks are inhabited by tenth to twelfth order flying beasts, and capturing any will be rewarded with two thousand Assessment Points."

"Do not easily venture into the top thirty-three Floating Peaks unless you have absolute strength and confidence because they are inhabited by Great Demons with power equivalent to Spirit Sea Realm experts!

Of course, if you have the strength to capture a Great Demon, the Assessment Points will be extraordinarily high and may even allow you to leap ahead of your results in the first two rounds, achieving a ranking in the top ten, or even first place!"

"Capturing a low-order Great Demon with strength equivalent to the early stages of the Spirit Sea Realm will net you three thousand Assessment Points; capturing a mid-order Great Demon equivalent to the intermediate stages of the Spirit Sea Realm will grant you five thousand Assessment Points; capturing a high-order Great Demon equivalent to the later stages of the Spirit Sea Realm will earn you ten thousand Assessment Points!"

The explanation of the last two rounds of assessment scores by Fairy Jia Luo made all the young participants take a deep breath.

Real combat assessments are indeed perilous, but the reward in Assessment Points is astonishing!

If performed well, these final two rounds of real combat assessments can indeed change the ranking outcomes of the first two rounds.

This stirred the ambitions of some young disciples, who had initially been fearful of the real combat assessments.

"The first two rounds of assessments have concluded, and your combat points have been recorded on the battle achievement screen. You have also clearly seen the ranking situation."

"For the following two rounds, the real combat assessments pose a risk to your lives. If you\'re confident, then make an effort to climb the Floating Peaks and capture the flying beasts to obtain Assessment Points. If you\'re not sure, then stay in a safe place rather than risking your life!"

The words of Fairy Jia Luo sparked a flurry of discussions among the young candidates.

"To rank highly in the final four rounds of assessments, to have the chance to become an Inner Peak true disciple, though the third and fourth rounds are dangerous, we must give it our all!"

"I\'ve already lost over a thousand Assessment Points in the first two rounds; in the next two rounds, I need to at least aim to climb to the middle thirty-three Floating Peaks and capture tenth to twelfth order flying beasts!"

"I\'m determined to join the Inner Peak and become a true disciple; I\'ll give it my all!"

The assessment candidates looked at the ninety-nine Floating Peaks on the huge screen of Sky Extreme Cliff and all made up their minds to give it their all while ensuring safety.

"The third round, climb the \'Sky-Scaling Vine\'!"

"The fourth round, capture Flying Beasts! Or even capture a Great Demon!"

Ye Chen, watching the ninety-nine Floating Peaks among the clouds, had a glint of fighting spirit in his eyes. This kind of real battle test was something he had never experienced before.

Capturing Flying Beasts, riding them through the skies, was exactly the feeling Ye Chen was after!

He had already planned to at least subdue a low or mid-level Great Demon.

Ye Chen believed in himself; he had that strength!

After all, he had even killed three Loose Cultivators of the Spirit Sea Realm. What was there to fear from anything less than a high-level Great Demon?

Just then, the pretty girl in green, also the most favored talented girl in the selection event for true disciples so far, Yu Luoxuan, suddenly approached Ye Chen.

"Ye Chen, I plan to climb to the top of the thirty-three highest Floating Peaks and capture a Great Demon!"

"Only then might I have a chance to surpass you!"

"Would you dare to compete with me in capturing a Great Demon?"

Yu Luoxuan\'s eyes were fixed on Ye Chen as she spoke.

Yu Luoxuan\'s words startled many youths nearby.

The next two rounds of the assessment were extremely dangerous, yet Yu Luoxuan fearlessly challenged Ye Chen, even aiming to capture a Great Demon?!

A Great Demon was on par with a Spirit Sea Realm powerhouse. Was she truly confident she could capture one?

The youths all turned their attention to Yu Luoxuan, only to see her gaze completely fixed on Ye Chen, awaiting his response.

Ye Chen looked at the pretty girl and smiled faintly, "Compete in capturing a Great Demon? Why not!"

"I, too, was planning to capture a Great Demon to see what it feels like to soar through the skies on one!"

Hum!

Ye Chen\'s response made Yu Luoxuan\'s eyes shine and caused a great shock in the hearts of the other youths.

In the life-threatening real battle test, these two youths, who had performed extraordinarily well in the first two rounds, were going to compete again.

Even deciding to see who could capture a Great Demon!

While all the assessment candidates set their own targets for the next two rounds, and as Ye Chen and Yu Luoxuan determined to really duke it out in the last two rounds, Fairy Jia Luo finally announced.

"Now, all candidates, follow me to \'Sky Extreme Cliff\' to participate in the final two rounds of the assessment!"

Simultaneously, Fairy Jia Luo\'s gaze also turned to Jiang Yao, then to those at the high seats in the sect entrance square—the Rotating Pill Realm powerhouses and Spirit Sea Realm disciples.

"Those guests who accepted our invitation to watch the true disciple selection event, as well as our sect\'s Spirit Sea Realm disciples, may also head to \'Sky Extreme Cliff\'!"

Then, Fairy Jia Luo\'s gaze swept over the True Qi Realm disciples and disciples from other sects in the sect entrance square, "Everyone else shall stay here at the sect entrance square to watch the assessment. The scenes will be fully displayed on this screen!"

Whoosh!

As Fairy Jia Luo finished speaking, the giant screen displaying Sky Extreme Cliff in the space above the sect entrance square expanded several times over. Now, the entire situation of Sky Extreme Cliff could be seen clearly from the square.

This was a method only possible through the laws of space; Fairy Jia Luo had used grand divine abilities to move the spatial scene of Sky Extreme Cliff above the sect entrance square, allowing everyone to watch.

Once everything was ready, with a wave of Fairy Jia Luo\'s fair palm, a palm-sized flying boat emerged from her sleeve. In an instant, the flying boat rapidly expanded and enlarged, ultimately turning into a hundreds-of-meters-long giant flying boat hovering in the air.

"All candidates for the true disciple selection test, board the flying boat!"

"Depart for \'Sky Extreme Cliff\'!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

One figure after another activated their movement techniques, flying towards the flying boat. Ye Chen nodded to Jiang Yao before he too soared into the flying boat.

Then, the flying boat abruptly ascended, streaking through the void, heading towards the mountains within the Taixuan Sect.

"Let\'s go too!"

"The last two rounds of real battle assessments, climbing the \'Sky-Scaling Vine\', capturing Flying Beasts and Great Demons. Such real combat is truly the main event of this true disciple selection. We must watch closely!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The Rotating Pill Realm powerhouses and Spirit Sea Realm disciples at the high seats of the sect entrance square, including Jiang Yao, also wrapped themselves in their qi, turning into streaks of light, following behind the flying boat towards Sky Extreme Cliff.

Those True Qi Realm disciples left on the sect entrance square all looked up at the giant screen.

Before long, they saw in the screen the flying boat and countless streaks of light appearing beneath the ninety-nine Floating Peaks.
