A gust of wind blew and carried the dust of the colosseum to go around the whole place. Four youths were struggling to climb the Heart Rendering Stairs, these four youths were the greatest geniuses of the Heaven's Will Academy.

They were of the youths who stood at the top of the talents in the realm, yet at the day where they were supposed to shine the brightest, they were currently being outshined by someone from outside the academy.

As they struggle to land a single step on the 80th step of the stairs, Wang Ling had already climbed the 100th step and was casually looking over them like some sort of senior.

The geniuses were left speechless at this sight. A youth that seemed to be as young, if not younger than they are were looking down upon them.

It was not a good feeling to have. The four youths stared at Wang Ling with mixed emotions and Wang Ling could not care to bother about them as his thoughts were wandering.

The three hours mark came and Wang Ling, together with the four geniuses of Heaven's Will Academy descended from the stairs. The four geniuses found it hard to descend, but Wang Ling merely walked with leisure.

Standing side by side with the other four geniuses who were sweating bullets, Wang Ling looked at them with a smile yet said no word. The other four took that as some sort of challenge when in fact Wang Ling merely wishes to let them know that they tried.

[These kids are good, if not for the fact that their wills are not tempered enough, they would have also managed to climb up till the 100th step.]

Wang Ling mused. As Wang Ling stood there with the other geniuses, the spectators cheered loudly. He once again looked around, Yan Renhuo and Wang Yue were both cheering wildly, Wang Hong was motioning with his thumb and Xiao Fei'er was merely nodding her head.

Wang Ling saw her turn her head to the side and then exchange gazes with an old man he does not know. Xiao Fei'er looked at her and after a pause, she showed a smug look on her face as if saying, "that's my son over there.'

Wang Ling was flustered, proud and glad all at the same time. Having an active family seems good and all, but he had to wonder how come his mother doesn't do anything other than going around the realm? Does she not have any responsibilities to take care of?

And how come that Yan Renhuo was with them? Not that Wang Ling had any problem with her presence as he actually founds her presence pleasant to have. Seeing her having a pleasant time with Wang Yue also made Wang Ling smile.

Wang Ling moved his eyes more and focused on the other spectators, he moved his eyes around and in one of the seats that was located west of him, Wang Ling saw a masked individual seated on her seat watching the selection play out.

[So, she is also here. Hmm, I can feel that she had grown considerably well. I am not expecting her to grow this much. I reckon once she appears before me, she must have been sharpened enough.]


Wang Ling mused and then turned his attention to Geng Wuying who was floating overhead. Wang Ling stared at his blinding bald head and smiled as he listened.

"The first trial had been conquered by Wang Ling in a dominating manner. But that doesn't dictate the results of the competition, the first might be the heart, now, the second one would be the comprehension of the will of heavens."

Geng Wuying waved his hands and then five black tablets that had golden marks engraved on its surface appeared from above and landed before Wang Ling and the other candidates.

At this point in time, the Heart Rendering Stairs was beginning to be devoured by the land. Wang Ling and the others were too focused on the tablets to even notice the stairs going down.

But as far as the stairs go, Wang Ling was simply too attracted to the beauty of the tablets in front of him that didn't care about anything else. The golden lines that was etched on its black surface caught his attention and his bloodlines.

His Greater Holy Lord bloodline that was usually quite tame began to circulate inside his veins in full swing. It was excited about something, now, Wang Ling knew that something was up with these black tablets.

"These are the [Black Gold Star Pillar]. Found in the [Heavenly Mausoleum] in the heart of the realm. Each pillar contains numerous Martial Techniques that is connected to the Heaven Realm. Each of the candidates will have five hours in order to comprehend a technique from the black tablet. To the one who can comprehend the most Martial Technique from the black tablet will granted the title of winner."

Geng Wuying flew back to his seat and then the candidates sat cross-legged and began meditating in front of a tablet. Five black tablets each having a candidate seated in front became the sight of the event.

Spreading their spirit sense to the black tablet, they wanted to see every nook and cranny of the tablet. And soon enough, a golden light that indicates a Martial Technique had been comprehended lit up from the black tablet.

Li Yourong was the first to comprehend a technique followed by Qin Lim then Xiang Ning before Zhuan Jie.

They began to comprehend the techniques that is in front of them. In the span of five hours, the black tablets lit up time after time when they comprehended something.

Li Yourong comprehended a total of 78 Martial Techniques, Xiang Ning comprehended 59 Martial Techniques and so and so forth.

The five hours mark passed yet one of the candidates remained seated for a long while. Many looked at his direction and noticed his weird actions.

They thought he was unwilling to stand up because all this while, he had never made the black tablet lit up.

"Stop wasting time." Xian Ning called to Wang Ling.

Yet Wang Ling didn't move, a minute later, his hands began to tremble. He opened his eyes and then stretched his body and as he did so, the four candidates marveled at the sight of the five tablets lighting up all at the same time.

"That took a while." Wang Ling said as he then began to carefreely make his eyes wander.
