Chapter 37 The First Stage Of The Selection
'Haha, looks like her plan failed.' Victor laughed to himself, noticing Mikena's chagrined expression.
"We'll do it after-" As he said these words, he squeezed one of her large breasts a little, causing her to let out a quiet moan.
If at first Victor tried to keep some distance between them and be careful, now he let his guard down a bit, because Mikena was quite a nice girl who reminded him of a house cat.
Gently stroking her hair, he went to the square where the selection was to be held.
**********
When he arrived at the place of the first stage of selection, he was surprised that the guards who noticed them did not react at all, just stood there and looked around at everyone as if gauging them with their eyes.
'Looks like I've read too many novels... What fantasists authors are…' Victor was slightly disappointed as he expected to meet scornful looks instead of respectful or neutral ones, but as soon as he wanted to continue his thought suddenly stopped.
"So apparently I'm not the main character." - He muttered as he stared at the one girl in the center of the square, who was under a distinctly contemptuous and oppressive presence.
Holding Mikena's hand tightly, he moved closer to the center to hear what interesting things were about to happen here.
In the center of the huge square was an elderly man, with short white hair and tired eyes. He looked like a man who clearly did not want to be here. He swept his pessimistic gaze around all the young people who had gathered around him and said loudly:
"Welcome to the Tangxiang City, I'm too lazy to mince words, so I'll be brief. The first stage of selection is to weed out all the trash among you." After these words, he turned his focus to the stele beside him, and all the people looking at him followed after him.
"More than half of the people here are garbage and I don't have time to check each and every one of you, so whoever is below the conditions I have now given must leave this square and return when he is no longer garbage." - After these words he once again looked around at most of the crowd, looking at Victor and Mikena his eyes gleamed slightly with approval.
But unlike the old man's calm words, many young cultivators swallowed hard because his next words could decide their future fate, of course Victor and Mikena did not care at all, unlike them, who sweated profusely from the tension, they flirted between each other, trying to maintain some boundaries while they were in the crowd.
"I will repeat this only one time so listen closely. To pass the first selection you must meet this condition. Practitioners between the ages of 15 and 18, the minimum level of cultivation of the middle stage of Initial Ascension(1) all those below the stated condition I implore you to leave this place."
"Practitioners from 18 to 21 years old, the minimum level of cultivation late stage Initial Ascension(1), Practitioners from 21 to 25 years old, the minimum level of cultivation initial stage Earthly Ascension(2), Practitioners from 25 to 30 years old, the minimum level of cultivation middle stage Earthly Ascension (2). All those who do not fit the conditions must leave the area otherwise if after the test you will be found not suitable for the conditions, you will be crippled and your cultivation base will be destroyed." - The last words of the old man seemed threatening and it was clear that he was not joking.
'He will really do it.' thought Victor, looking into the eyes of the old man, and for some reason he even thought that he wanted some "brave" people to attempt it. But shaking his head, Victor put the thought out of his mind, anyway it is not his business whether these people live or die, he does not care.
The huge site, that was practically packed to the brim, more than half of the young cultivators were now forced to leave the place, but even though they left it, more and more new people were arriving at the place.
It seemed that it would only take a short time before the place was once again fully packed with candidates for various sects disciple positions.
Noticing that most of the cultivators had left the place, the old man shook his head and mumbled something, but none of the participants could hear what he was saying.
Soon he waved his hand and pointed to the stele next to him and said:
"The first stage of selection begins, anyone wishing to pass this stage should come up and press your hand against the stele to show the results, on the stele will be shown not only your level of cultivation but also your age. After passing this stage you must leave your identification data and then you can leave this place, because the second stage will take place tomorrow.
"Tomorrow..." Today was Victor's eighth of the ten days allotted by the quest, so for now, although he was tight on time, he wasn't worried because everything was in perfect order.
"Come on, let's wait. There's no hurry." - Victor hurriedly held back Mikena, who had taken off toward the stele from the start.
Victor didn't want to hurry because he was interested in the show that was about to take place. He called it:
"Becoming a Protagonist."
Without taking his eyes off the girl under the scornful stares, Victor grinned.
But, unlike Victor, who was just curious about what would happen next, Mikena did not feel at all happy to see him looking at another girl in her presence. Now she turned her gaze to her, only it was a little different from the others. If everyone else had interested, contemptuous and sneering looks, Mikena had a look that was filled with rage and jealousy.
Under the piercing stare, the girl seemed to sense something as she suddenly flinched and tried to find the terrifying stare directed at her. Only after looking around the crowd did she notice Mikena.
But instead of turning away, her eyes lit up, of course her gaze was not on Mikena, but on the man standing beside her.
"That bitch..." - Mumbled Mikena in a rage, she did not expect that such a frightened little girl would look at her man with interest clearly shown in her eyes.
Noticing Mikena's unsteady state, Victor's hand suddenly grabbed her buttock, causing Mikena's face to instantly turn red and she shifted her gaze to him in an instant.
"Do you want me to kill her?" - Victor spat out indifferently.
