Myriad Reincarnations System

Chapter 24 - The Entrance Exam

「Welcome to the main control room! Here is where we can control the ship from, as you saw earlier, you need specific keys to enter, you also need a key to start the ship. The screens to either side display the areas of the ship we cannot see from here through the use of various arrays. The Radar system should detect any physical object but can easily be jammed by spiritual energy so don't rely on it. The various controls control different things, although Xiao Yu can do everything herself, I also want you guys to learn because I will be making even more in the future.」

「So, we are supposed to fly this?」

「Yes, well to be precise, flying it will be Xiao Yu's job, your job is to make use of the various uses of the things around the ship such as the shields and weaponry. When I make more in the future I will make smaller ones good for one person but those ones won't have spirits meaning that you will have to control it your self, it shouldn't be too hard though. Anyways, take your seats, Xiao Yu, take flight.」

「Okay~」

---

Arriving above their first stop, they descended upon the Ouyang clan casting a large shadow over the group.

Awed by the massive spectacle of a large warship descending from the skies, the members of the Ouyang were stunned. Treasures capable of flight were ridiculously rare, with the exception of the most common, but still very rare flying sword of course. With such a large flying treasure, the Myriad Dao Sect could be considered the ric.h.e.s.t sect within 10,000 miles!

「Welcome to the Myriad Dao Sect, after we pick up the other examinees, we will bring you back to the sect for the entrance test. Those that fail will be able to stay a trial disciple and work for the sect or return to their original clan or sect.」

「What do you mean by work for the sect?」

「You can stay in the sect and use our resources, but, you must obviously contribute to the sect in order to use said resources, so, Trial disciples will be given missions within their abilities to complete for a small reward. Another benefit is that if you can meet the requirements to enter the outer sect during that time you are free to take the exam again.」

Taking flight once more, the ship rose into the air and sailed to the next location.

「Warning, there is a small flock of Green Fire Crows at 1 o'clock.」

Slightly adjusting the trajectory of the ship, Xiao Yu angled the ship to fly directly past them. Adjusting the various light weaponry installed on the ship the disciples opened fire.

Pa! Pa! Pa!

Spiritual energy fluctuated as concentrated destructive beams found their way into the flock of flame-spitting birds. Although some managed to outmanoeuvre the beams of light, an equal amount was shot down falling and being squashed to paste upon the ground below.

Enraged, the flock charged up their strongest attacks and bombarded the ship once more only to realise that they were facing an even heavier barrage of attacks.

Dropping like broken kites through the air, they fell to the earth and were turned into a bloody paste...

Staring up at the ongoing battle above, the small team of adventurous people looked up in horror as it rained green fire crows. Seeing the massive warship zoom off into the distance they looked at each other and laughed: free beast cores.

---

「Enemy annihiliated~ We will be approaching our next destination in approximately 5 minutes...」

The rest of the journey to the various residencies of the other 5 sects and clans was rather smooth, the entire warship was still filled with the hubbub of the first group of disciples telling the others about how easily the green fire crows were taken down.

「We have arrived at the Myriad Dao Sect, please disembark~」

Landing in the centre of the sect, Xiao Yu got everyone off the ship and took off to park it while the other disciples stood around in amazement at the foreign but beautiful scenery.

「Hehe」

Quieting down, everyone in the plaza quieted down and looked around for the person speaking.

「There will be four rounds, and they are quite easy. The first round will test your talent, anyone who has a talent of Grade 4 will immediately pass on to the third round, those with a talent of grade 3 must go through the second round.

The second round will consist of strength testing, here at the training grounds, there are bells that ignore the cultivation base and are able to tell you how much force you were able to produce outside of your physical realm. If you can cause it to ring once, you will pass.

The third round will be simple, show your attainments in any profession of your choice, if you have yet to dabble, then you can take part in the second part of the third round and learn arrays and basic item crafting on the spot I, myself, will teach you, many here were able to pick it up immediately.

In the fourth and final round, you will be tested on how well you can understand the concepts of a technique I calligraph. anyone who can reach the first level in 5 days will be considered to have passed.」

Soon, light columns shot into the skies as the examinees approached testing stones and placed their hands upon them. Many left with smiles on their faces and a few begrudgingly walked away in depression.

Soon the second test began, as the disciples who only had a talent of Grade 3 were brought in front of the large bell, they struck out at it in hopes of ringing it.

「Fail, Next!」

「One Ring, Pass」

「Fail, Next!」

If one was able to ring the bell once, then it would show that they could cross realms in cultivation and fight someone one minor stage higher than themselves. Two rings, two minor stages, three rings, three stages and so on. The bells would disregard one's cultivation were unable to be rung otherwise.

「Two rings! Pass!」

Soon, only around 1/2 of the people that were originally attempting to ring the bell remained as the rest walked out gloomily. Commencing the third round of the test, there was a different area allocated to a different profession, furnaces were laid out for weapon refiners, and cauldrons were put out for the alchemists (everything kindly provided by the system!).

Around half of the people in the entrance exam stood off to the side and watched, this could be considered a low number as in their current areas, people who had a profession were quite rare.

Bang! a cauldron exploded.

Bang! a furnace began to billow smoke

Aaah! I'm blind! A stupid disciple stared directly into his magnified spotlight array.

Fwoosh! a wild cat tore through the beast taming

Eventually, the testing area was turned into a large mess by the time the first part of the third round had concluded.

「Congratulations to those who have passed. Now, for those of you who have yet to pick up a profession please step forwards and receive the materials for the exam. You will get some crystal iron and an instruction booklet that I wrote out, you will have 3 hours to complete the device listed in the manual, if you run out of materials then you fail, there are a total of 3 sets of important materials and 5 of the unimportant ones... Begin!」

Soon, the soon to be disciples flipped open the small brown booklet and were dazzled by the detailed descriptions and explanations on how to create a remote and light fixture array set.

The first step was to take and shape the iron into the shape of the remote and the second piece of iron into a shape you could fit the lighting array onto.

The next step detailed in the book was to carve the lighting array. This array was specially designed by Chen Hua to light up 3 nodes in yellowish light, creating 3 different levels of lighting.

The last step was the hardest, creating the remote. One had to add a transmission control array over the lighting array and connect it to the transmission array on the remote. This was difficult because it required someone to tune them which was kind of like playing a rhythm game but with spiritual energy fluctuations, and there was no rhythm, it was almost random. 90%+ and full combo or you fail!

Although failing to tune the arrays would not cause any damage to it; It was still a big waste of time and energy.

Soon three hours had passed and many had already managed to complete the array set. Due to the simplicity of the test, there were not many who had failed and there was only one that failed utterly meaning that everyone that failed would take part in the next entrance exam and if they still failed then they would be kicked out otherwise they would be accepted into the sect.

「Now for the fourth and final round, I have created a new basic technique that all future disciples of the sect will learn. It's simple, learn the first move in 5 days and you can automatically be accepted into the sect, if you don't then you will take the next entrance exam and if you succeed then you will be accepted then.」

Using his Dragons Traversiong The Heavens Technique Chen Hua ill.u.s.trated the first move of his <Grand Myriad Dao Art (incomplete)>

The description is as follows:

The Grand Myriad Dao Art, Those who learn the Grand Myriad Dao Art will step onto the path of the Dao,. The only limit is the practitioner themself. As a peerless technique of the Myriad Dao Sect, any who cultivate it will step onto the path of the grand dao.

The art is not separated into levels, it all depends on one's comprehension in the dao. You could reflect attacks, predict weaknesses, see the future, absorb your opponent's strength, hide in black holes, etc. The possibilities are endless.

...

Placing the Pedestal the technique was inscribed upon by the system when he had created it in the testing area, the examinees sat down and stared at it unblinkingly. Soon, they fell into a state of comprehension as they unknowingly began to be affected by the aura of the pedestal greatly boosting their comprehension ability.

The first day: There was no motion

The second day: A genius made some progress

The third day: People had grasped a starting point to unravel the beginning

The Fourth day: Success! A few geniuses managed to comprehend the first movement. Some were able to dodge with less effort, others were able to deflect more strength, some were able to punch with more force. Although the gains were not much during the 4 days, they were gains none the less and they would only increase from there.

The Fifth day: Many more students managed to comprehend the first movement thanks to the buff on the pedestal (When learning the Great Myriad Dao Art with this pedestal, comprehension of the technique is increased by XXX% and by an additional XXX% every 5 days for 1 day.
