Chapter 623: Sarah\'s Star Test.
The others naturally saw the strange movement of their friends and followed suit.
Andrea asked, looking in the direction Yasenia was looking at. "What\'s wrong, love? Have you seen anything strange?"
Yasenia smiled with interest and commented. "Remember the girl I spoke about? The one I met in the Secret Realm?"
Tatyana lifted her eyebrow. "That\'s her?"
Yasenia heard Tatyana\'s question more like a confirmation, but she nodded. "Yes. Her name is Sarah."
Tatyana\'s brows frowned. \'Having an otherworlder like that close by is not something I would recommend… They are quite a problem magnet.\'
Tatyana asked. "Are you close with her?"
Yasenia shook her head. "I felt a bit close at first, but she kept secrets around me all the time, so I decided not to make deep connections with her."
Valeria commented with a laugh. "Thankfully, you were somewhat merciful, Tatyana."
Tatyana snorted. "Maybe my punishment was a bit too light."
Yasenia was confused. "Did something happen? When did you meet her?"
Tatyana was careful with her words, being extremely attentive to every gesture of Yasenia. "She was trying to analyze my soul with her… strongest treasure, and I made it dysfunctional for a while. My soul pressure might have made her will a bit more fragile."
Andrea and the others sighed. \'Poor woman, she stepped on the shoe of the only person she shouldn\'t have here.\'
Yasenia felt nothing about it. She was confident in Tatyana and knew that the fact that she retaliated was because there was a threat.
She wouldn\'t have reacted to someone trying to analyze her if there was no threat. After all, even if an ant stares at an elephant intently, the elephant won\'t be able to tell.
Yasenia asked, curious. "Strongest treasure… Does she have a Soul Weapon with a complete consciousness like Mirrory?"
Yasenia retold the way Sarah appeared to speak with someone from time to time, and this explanation felt plausible with the limited knowledge of our dragoness.
Tatyana shook her head. "It\'s similar to a Soul Weapon, but… Much stronger. Look at her cultivation level."
They all focused on the woman waiting in the queue and realized she was on the same level as them. Yasenia was surprised. "The same cultivation speed as us? But she has a quintuple elemental affinity."
It was not linear and depended on many factors. However, those with more attribute affinities usually took longer to cultivate than a person with a single attribute.
Evelyn was horrified. "Quintuple!? Isn\'t that rarer than your Yin and Yang constitution?"
Cecile and the others also became serious. Yasenia commented. "I think she has all the basic attributes: Fire, Water, Earth, Metal, and Wood. Moreover, she could control lesser spirits. Honestly, if she hadn\'t been such a novice and clumsy woman back then, her strength would have been on par with ours. I\'m curious how her strength has developed during these years."
Cecile\'s eyes shone with competitive light. "I want to fight her."
Andrea asked. "She is the first person I\'ve seen that I can see contending with your existence\'s absurdity, love."
Angel muttered. "Yasenia is still the strongest!"
Andrea blinked and laughed, patting her head. "Yes, yes."
Tatyana commented, dissatisfied. "She is just an artificial powerhouse. Nothing impressive compared to my little treasure\'s natural birth and miraculous existence. People like her beating real geniuses is nothing more than Luck and manipulation."
Kali, who had been silent, asked. "Why do I sense that she is a little more than four years old? It doesn\'t make sense, no?"
Andrea asked. "Are you sure?"
Kali nodded. "I felt it back in the Secret Realm, but I didn\'t pay attention because her being a few months old back then was stupid. But… Since then, the "lifespan" has increased accordingly. It is as if she has appeared from nowhere."
Yasenia pondered for a moment. "Mom, how much time have you disabled her treasure?"
Tatyana muttered. "Maybe too little…"
Angel chuckled. "Is too little for Mommy Tatyana, or too little for her?"
Tatyana smiled. "It is about half a year or so. After all, she intends to join your power, so crippling her for longer makes no sense. But after hearing your tales in more detail…" Tatyana\'s red eyes glowed. "Maybe I need to eliminate her."
Sarah felt a chill going up her spine and looked around with nervousness.
Yasenia titled her head. "Is she that dangerous?"
Tatyana shook her head, but she thought to herself. \'If she had a normal power-creeping system, I wouldn\'t mind that much, but a Harem system is one of the most disgusting… Sigh, if I had my real body, destroying it would be just a snap of my fingers. Thankfully, the aura of that system was quite harmless. It\'s an emotionless system with the host as a priority and not one of those that devour the host. Well, as long as she doesn\'t target little treasure, she can live.\'
Yasenia returned her attention to Sarah. "Why is she nervous? Is she still as cowardly as before?"
Evelyn agreed, "Her talent should be enough to be proud of it, no? Not to mention forty-five stars, she might be the first with eighty or more."
Tatyana coughed. "That\'s my fault. It seems that my leaking killing intent reached her for a moment."
The girls\' lips twitched. Angel asked innocently. "Are you going to kill her, Mommy Tatyana?" Then, with a hidden glint in her blue eyes, she said. "She even confessed to Yasenia in the past."
The curious eyes became cold.
Tatyana squinted. \'Considering what Kali said earlier, she must have arrived a few months before the secret realm. Going by the way otherworlders usually think of the world, did she think that Yasenia was a "heroine" or something? Tsk, I want to kill her.\'
Mirrory asked. \'Are you going to? System users usually take a big role in important wars and events. Unless necessary, killing them is not too nice. Of course, if she targets any of our girls, we can instantly destroy her soul.\'
Valeria agreed. \'Let\'s do a wait-and-see approach. We will intervene if she crosses the line.\'
Tatyana snorted, but she nodded. \'If the slightest hint appears of her trying to wife up our girls…\'
Valeria and Mirrory answered coldly.
\'Don\'t worry. By then, we\'ll help you.\'
\'Her life ends at that moment.\'
Tatyana then sent a message to the maids in Sarah\'s line.
Sarah arrived at the test area and took a step toward the bloodline test, feeling strangely uneasy. \'Why am I feeling so cold? Ugh, not having the system is really bothersome…\'
The maid\'s eyes flashed when she saw Sarah. "Hello, this is the bloodline test. Please, use this needle to prickle your finger."
Sarah nodded and did so quickly.
The four years in Distancia of fighting and such have hardened her temperament, and minor injuries were already nothing major for her.
However, unlike others, two drops of blood dropped quite quickly.
Before anybody realized it, the maid at the seventh level of the Dantian Spiritualization Realm snatched one of the drops of blood and preserved it in a crystal tube.
Sarah blinked, confused. \'Huh? Did I see two drops? No, that\'s one drop.\'
She rubbed her forehead. \'My God, nervousness is terrible even for a cultivator…\'
The drop of blood entered the pool, and the star meter shot up, reaching ten stars.
Sarah nodded. \'Well, I have yet to choose my bloodline because I am postponing Yasenia\'s quest and wondering if I should accept it. It\'s normal to be low…\'
Yasenia was relaxed when she suddenly heard people around sneering.
"Only ten stars?"
"Right, besides those worthless ones, this is one of the lowest."
"She probably won\'t be able to pass the test."
Yasenia blinked a few times, extremely confused. \'Why are they commenting now and not with the others?\'
Tatyana nodded. \'Protagonist slaps everyone cliche incoming. It seems we are going to see some absurd test results…\'
Sarah heard people around and frowned. \'Why are they targeting me?\'
The maid spoke. "Please, go to the next test."
Sarah nodded and arrived at the Soul test.
The maid there smiled. "Please, place your hand here and pour all your energy into the crystal."
Sarah nodded and placed her hand.
The surroundings spoke. "I bet she will score eight stars."
"Hahaha, you are giving her too much credit."
"Can\'t she be a bit quicker?"
Yasenia spoke coldly, irritated that people who had overcome the tests were the ones talking. "Silence."
Her voice boomed like thunder, making those sneering shut up and lower their head with cold sweat running down their backs.
Yasenia spoke one more time. "If you think you can be an arrogant prick just because you overcame the test, you are sorely mistaken. I hear any more mocking remarks, and you will be expelled."
Sarah blinked and looked toward Yasenia, feeling a warm current flow into her heart. \'If I can speak later, I must thank her.\'
Then, she looked at the crystal and took a deep breath. "Ha!"
The next moment, the Soul Crystal glowed like a miniature Sun.
Everyone\'s eyes widened, and then…
CRACK!
BOOM!
The Soul Crystal exploded, unable to bear Sarah\'s soul.
The already silent place became even more quiet.
Andrea and the girls showed surprised expressions, but they had seen Yasenia, Cecile, Angel, and Kali doing the same with that crystal, so they weren\'t that impressed.
Evelyn and Andrea had scored 20 stars in the soul after being nourished by Yasenia for so long, so it was close to bursting it and didn\'t fall much behind.
The maid spoke. "Congratulations, you are the first person to score twenty stars! Here is a reward."
Sarah received a low-level, heaven-ranked herb called [Soul Siphon Rose].
Sarah smiled, her confidence returning to her. \'Neat.\'
Then, she looked at the broken crystal and stuttered. "Do I need to pay for it?"
The maid smiled. "Hahaha, if you can break our tests, you are more than welcome. That only means talented people are entering our sect, and we welcome them with open arms."
Sarah nodded and moved toward the next test.
The constitution test was another ten stars coming from her, confusing the spectators. \'IS she a soul expert?\'
Then, she went to the potential test and placed her hand on the obsidian-like rock.
Naturally, Sarah\'s immeasurable potential came alight when the obsidian rock exploded again, similar to the soul test.
The maid chuckled. "Congratulations, the first twenty-star score in potential.Here is the prize. You can ask our blacksmiths to forge you a weapon with it if you want."
Sarah caught the fist-size ore named [Silver Purple meteorite], another low-level heaven-ranked material. \'I have a better sword, but maybe I can create one for my harem.\'
Sarah sighed in relief. \'With this, I scored sixty stars. Now… The comprehension Test.\'
Sarah was a bit confident since she could understand skills exceptionally quickly, so she quickly concentrated and allowed the strand of energy to enter her body.
Then, she started unraveling it, but she frowned. \'Huh? So difficult?\'
One second went by, two seconds, three seconds…
Yasenia frowned. "What\'s wrong? I have seen her learn skills in a few seconds. How can her comprehension skill be low?"
Tatyana inwardly sneered. \'As expected, artificial. With the system\'s help, it\'s naturally easy to understand everything. A system\'s strongest feature is not the shops or abilities but the power to take its host by the hand when advancing cultivation realms or learning "mysteries" of the Heavens.\'
The maid said. "Stop. The test has ended. The score is…"
\'But what if it suddenly disappears? It shows the real comprehension skills of the person. And as a normal human that suddenly arrived at a cultivation world…\'
"Two stars!"
\'… You have that kind of result.\'
The surroundings were stunned again but for a completely different reason.
