The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood

Chapter 1375 - 1376: Dantai Zanglian’s Request

Ye Mo followed behind Zang Lian without speaking much and, as she led the way, they saw an Elder with a wide body standing at the forefront of the square. The disciples of the Wheel of Reincarnation Realm were all trembling, not daring to speak.

"Our Wraith Clan has never recruited waste. Since you all wish to join the Wraith Clan, you must be the elite among elites. As long as you can pass the Intermediate Dream Entering Stone test unscathed, you can successfully join the Wraith Clan as entry-level disciples."

Elder Yan Fawu said loudly.

The disciples waiting for the test were initially full of confidence. Naturally, they had heard about the Intermediate Dream Entering Stone being the test for the Wheel of Reincarnation Realm and were confident they could pass. However, they didn’t expect the condition to be unscathed; some martial artists immediately looked fearful.

Then, Elder Yan Fawu waved his sleeve, and an Intermediate Dream Entering Stone appeared before each disciple as they entered the state of assessment.

"So the test is the Intermediate Dream Entering Stone? That’s too easy," said Ye Mo as he watched the disciples, all entering the Dream Stone space.

"Easy?"

Zang Lian reacted in surprise: "My clan has increased the difficulty in recruiting disciples; now you need to pass unscathed. If you were to take it, you might not manage it unscathed either."

The dream within the Dream Stone is tailored to the martial artist’s strength, and even though Ye Mo is a Divine Venerate Realm expert, passing easily is not simple without certain means.

"Intermediate Dream Entering Stone? That’s not difficult for me."

Ye Mo laughed and referred to his experience in the Vanquishing Martial Realm where he instantly passed the Intermediate Dream Entering Stone test.

"Even if it’s not difficult, it’s useless; the assessment for Divine Venerate Realm martial artists does not use Dream Stones. That Elder is the Vice Hall Master of the Examination Hall, Elder Yan Fawu, while the Hall Master is Elder Wang Qiu Chi, although Elder Wang Qiu Chi rarely deals with assessments."

At that moment, Yan Fawu also noticed Zang Lian and Ye Mo and, seeing them approach, his expression unchanged, said, "Zang Lian, why have you come to me?"

"Elder Yan Fawu, this is Ye Mo, an expert at the Divine Venerate Two-Soul level, seeking to join our Wraith Clan. I specially brought him for the assessment."

Zang Lian spoke without much deference; this Wraith Clan values strength above all, and although Yan Fawu is an esteemed Elder, being more senior doesn’t mean he’s stronger than Zang Lian.

Yan Fawu glanced at Ye Mo indifferently and said, "Don’t you know our Wraith Clan no longer recruits Divine Venerate Realm disciples?"

"Elder Yan Fawu, look at this, it’s intelligence from the Elder responsible for information."

Zang Lian took out a jade scroll and threw it to Yan Fawu.

Yan Fawu crushed the jade scroll, and immediately a voice was transmitted: "Zang Lian and a disciple worked together and exterminated the entire team led by the Twelfth Prince of the Dead Soul Royal Family, earning major merits for our clan."

Generally, when a task is completed, the Monitoring Elder will feedback intelligence to the Merit Hall, which confirms whether the core disciples have completed the task.

"The disciple you speak of is him?"

Yan Fawu stared at Ye Mo and asked.

"Correct, he also slew many disciples of the Dead Soul Royal Family, proving he’s not a spy for them. Our clan needs talented individuals right now; this Ye Mo is a rare genius."

Zang Lian said.

"Today’s disciple assessments are already fully scheduled. Have him come to me tomorrow afternoon for the assessment."

Yan Fawu said.

"No problem!"

Zang Lian nodded, and then she led Ye Mo away.

Soon, Zang Lian had brought Ye Mo out of the Wraith Clan’s center; along the way, there were pavilions and towers, grandiose and majestic, even floating in the air, much grander than the Ancient Azure Dragon Clan.

"Ye Mo, since you are not yet a Wraith Clan disciple and have no place to stay, you may rest at my pavilion for the night."

Zang Lian said, her words meant others, elite disciples, or even core disciples would be stunned; Zang Lian had never allowed any male disciple into her pavilion, let alone to stay overnight.

"Your pavilion?" Ye Mo was taken aback.

"Don’t misunderstand, you’ve helped me a lot by completing this task, and that includes killing the Twelfth Prince, earning me a reward of five hundred Ascending Soul Pills."

Zang Lian said.

"Only five hundred Ascending Soul Pills for such a dangerous task?"

Ye Mo was surprised, "Are Ascending Soul Pills that precious?"

"It’s not that Ascending Soul Pills are particularly valuable, but the demand is massive; martial artists need them to break through soul cultivation levels. That’s why the Wraith Clan strictly controls Ascending Soul Pills, and you can only obtain them through tasks. Of course, if you associate with skilled Alchemists in the clan and obtain Verdant Ink Grass during your adventures, you can request them to concoct it."

Zang Lian shook her head, saying, "However, the Ninth-Order Alchemists in the clan are very arrogant; even direct descendants of the Wraith Clan must adhere to their whims."

Soon, Zang Lian brought Ye Mo to a massive pavilion and they entered.

"Am I seeing things, Zang Lian actually brought a male disciple into her pavilion?"

"This is insanity!"

...

Zang Lian led Ye Mo into a quiet room, where standing at the window, he could take in almost half of the Wraith Clan’s surroundings.

"Here are 250 Ascending Soul Pills, for completing this task, your merits are half of it."

Zang Lian handed 250 Ascending Soul Pills to Ye Mo.

Ye Mo waved his hand and said, "Senior Sister Zang Lian, I can’t accept these pills; without you, I couldn’t have joined the Wraith Clan’s cultivation."

"These pills aren’t given to you for free; I want to request your assistance in something."

Zang Lian said.

"Oh? What is it?"

Ye Mo raised an eyebrow, curious.

"You’re an expert of the Divine Venerate Two-Soul level, yet your strength has likely reached the Divine Venerate Five Souls Realm. During tomorrow’s test, I hope you won’t reveal your true strength; you only need to secure an elite disciple status. The Wraith Clan has a task with an epic difficulty level, with a reward of ten thousand Ascending Soul Pills."

Zang Lian said.

"What? The Wraith Clan actually has an epic level task?"

Even the Wraith Demon Emperor was surprised by this; during his time, such tasks never appeared.
