Chapter 211: Chapter 211: Ancient Martial Dimension 28

After the impressive group had said a few words to the people participating in the selection process, they allowed the participants to enter the mountain gate and make their way up the mountain on foot.

Xia Yue looked at the seemingly endless staircase behind the mountain gate and swallowed hard. She wondered if she’d be so tired she might vomit if she had to walk up it herself.

"Boss, now that they’ve departed, what do we do?" Zhang Meng asked Yan Mo.

"Any updates on your end?" Yan Mo turned to Xia Yue.

"No notifications yet, let’s just wait a little longer." Xia Yue shook her head.

"Let’s wait a bit. Those people haven’t left yet. We might be able to watch for a while longer." Yan Mo noted the spectators who remained. Typically, once the participants left, the spectators would disperse, but they hadn’t.

After waiting for a while, a few disciples brought a table and placed it in the center of the mountain gate. The leader walked to the front of the table, took something from his spatial tool, placed it on the table, and performed a few gestures.

A virtual-like screen appeared in mid-air above the mountain gate.

"Wow, such an advanced live-streaming system!" Xia Yue exclaimed in surprise as she looked at the screen.

"I never thought that the scenes from those fantasy dramas were real, that there really are ancient versions of live-streaming systems. And it looks even clearer and more advanced than ours." Zhang Meng nodded.

"It’s definitely high-end. Look, there’s a real-time ranking list on the side that only shows the names of the top 100 individuals." Chen Bin noticed a rank chart on the right side of the screen.

"It appears only the top 100 can enter the Tianyang Sect. Su Bai and Shen Xichen’s names are quite far down, but they’re on the list." Cheng Cang searched for Su Bai and Shen Xichen’s names and commented.

"Let’s watch." Yan Mo also found this to be quite astonishing.

The others nodded. They were curious about what was happening to the participants inside and didn’t plan to leave.

However, the virtual screen was controlled by the leading elder. He only showed what happened when the first 10 ranked people were climbing the stairs, illustrating how they tackled it.

Different arrays set on the staircase tested various aspects such as one’s mentality, moral character, abilities, and more.

Su Bai and Shen Xichen didn’t show much spectacular performance in the first hour, but later on, their ranks shot up swiftly, quickly drawing the attention of the Tianyang Sect elders.

As a result, the elder redirected the screen to show their progress, allowing Xia Yue and the others to watch Su Bai and Shen Xichen.

Compared to Shen Xichen, who seemed to breeze through the trials due to sheer luck, Su Bai spent significant effort and energy at every step.

"Is this what it’s like to be chosen by luck? It seems so effortless." Xia Yue commented after observing their progress.

[Shen Xichen is incredibly lucky, that’s why he’s chosen as the number two Son of Fortune.]the system said.

"So, doesn’t that mean the number one Son of Fortune is even luckier? Like the kind of luck where he stumbles upon treasures wherever he goes?" Xia Yue asked curiously.

[His luck indeed surpasses Shen Xichen’s, but his fate has been far harsher; he had to struggle relentlessly to achieve his current success.]the system responded.

"Oh, so it would be better to be like Shen Xichen, with fewer hardships and luck no worse than others." Xia Yue remarked.

[...]The system was exasperated yet helpless towards her carefree mentality this time.

They watched for five hours. In the end, Shen Xichen was the first to arrive, followed by Su Bai, with Ma Yan ranking twentieth.
