Rebirth in Journey to the West: Sun Wukong
Chapter 815 - 816: The Great Hall Master’s Warning (First Update!)

"So many people came for the test today!"

"Of course! Today is the triennial Selection Day of the Primordial Spirit Hall. The Great Hall Master is personally overseeing it and has brought the best Spirit Testing Instrument from Leizhou Prefecture. It not only measures specific values, but also displays physique attributes."

"If you can be chosen by the Great Hall Master to join the Primordial Spirit Alliance, you’d really hit it big! In the future, becoming a king or emperor wouldn’t be impossible!"

"Become a king or emperor? You’re thinking too much! Do you think it’s that easy to achieve the level of Domain King or Domain Emperor? There are only a few in this Yuan Realm, and each one is an unparalleled powerhouse ruling the heavens!"

"Hehe, I’m just saying! Even if one can’t become a Domain King or Domain Emperor, becoming a Domain Lord is enough to dominate an area!"

"You have to be lucky enough to get into the Primordial Spirit Alliance first!"

People around were whispering to each other, but Sun Wukong frowned as he listened.

He was just here to test the level of his Cultivation Technique and physique. He didn’t expect to coincidentally come on the triennial Selection Day of the Primordial Spirit Hall. No wonder there were so many people!

If he stands out too much in this situation, he would definitely be targeted by the Primordial Spirit Hall, just like Pangu the Great Sage.

Thinking of this, Sun Wukong turned and walked towards the door. Maybe he should come back another day to test?

"Oh, someone’s already chickened out, not even daring to take the test!"

A loud, annoying voice suddenly came, making Sun Wukong stop and look at the source of the voice.

The person wearing a golden robe held an exquisite jade fan. He was handsome but had a lewd and arrogant look. Sun Wukong immediately concluded that he must be a pampered disciple from some sect.

Otherwise, why would someone start mocking others without knowing them? Wasn’t he afraid of offending someone he couldn’t afford to?

Sun Wukong shook his head lightly and continued to walk towards the door. Arguing with such a person would be a waste of his time!

"Why are you shaking your head? I’m talking to you, kid!"

Often, trouble doesn’t seek you; it comes to you. Sun Wukong didn’t want to stir up trouble now, but that didn’t mean he was afraid. This person was now naming him directly and stepping on his pride. How could he tolerate it if he was the Great Sage Equalling Heaven?

"Where’s this noisy fly from? The mosquito prevention in the Primordial Spirit Hall isn’t very good today!"

Sun Wukong sneered, casting a light glance at the person in the golden robe.

"You dog! What did you say? Are you courting death?"

The person in the golden robe was stunned for a moment, then became furious and moved his jade fan as if to strike at Sun Wukong.

"Who is causing a disturbance in my Primordial Spirit Hall?"

Sun Wukong squinted his eyes slightly, ready to strike back, when a stern voice suddenly echoed through the hall.

Sun Wukong looked in the direction of the voice and saw a middle-aged man with piercing eyes emerging from the back hall. His gaze was like a torch, sweeping over everyone. Each person he looked at felt like they were struck by lightning and hurriedly lowered their heads.

"A master!"

Sun Wukong’s heart sank. The newcomer’s cultivation was unfathomable. At least for now, he was nowhere near a match!

This person must be the Great Hall Master everyone was talking about?

As expected, the man in the golden robe’s face changed when he saw the newcomer. He quickly bowed and apologized, "Great Hall Master, this little thief mocked me. I couldn’t contain my anger and acted rashly. Please forgive me, Great Hall Master!"

A middle-aged man next to the golden-robed person also quickly pleaded with the Great Hall Master, "Great Hall Master, my nephew was impulsive. Please spare him this time for the sake of our Wu family!"

"Wu family? The Wu family of Sky-shaking Cliff?"

"Exactly, exactly!"

"Your Sky-shaking Cliff has been quite prominent lately! The entire Eastern Continent is buzzing about your deeds!"

The Great Hall Master sneered coldly, his tone full of sarcasm. The middle-aged man from the Wu family’s expression changed, anger flashing in his eyes, but he dared not show it.

"I don’t want to interfere with the affairs of your Sky-shaking Cliff, but this is the Primordial Spirit Hall. Here, we follow the rules of the Primordial Spirit Hall!"

The Great Hall Master glanced coldly at the Wu family’s middle-aged man and the person in the golden robe, "Everyone, come over here to register and test in order! Anyone daring to disrupt the testing order will face my wrath!"

His words were clearly aimed at the Wu family’s middle-aged man, and a light sense of oppression flashed across, being both a threat and a warning.

The atmosphere in the great hall instantly became tense. Those who had been lively and talking were now silent as cicadas in cold weather.

It was no joke. If even the people from Sky-shaking Cliff’s Wu family weren’t given face, what about them?

It was best to obediently follow the rules of the Primordial Spirit Hall at this time. Otherwise, if the Great Hall Master dealt with them, there would be nowhere to cry about it!

"Yellow Grade High Rank Cultivation Technique, Golden Water Physique, forty-five points, average."

"Profound Level Low Rank Cultivation Technique, Fire Wood Physique, fifty-three points, average."

"Yellow Grade..."

All people who came to test took their turns. Most of them had Yellow Grade techniques, a few had Profound Level techniques, and their physique values were about fifty, rarely exceeding seventy.

Among those tested, the Wu family’s golden-robed Wu Yong from Sky-shaking Cliff was the strongest. He had a Profound Level High Rank Cultivation Technique, Water Physique, and a value of seventy-nine, which was absolutely outstanding among the crowd. Even the Great Hall Master nodded in approval and said, "Not bad."

"You, the one trying to run away, you’re the only one left who hasn’t tested yet. What, scared?"

After receiving praise from the Great Hall Master, Wu Yong felt even more arrogant. Looking at Sun Wukong provocatively, he mocked aloud.

"I’m afraid testing would scare you. If you get frightened, I wouldn’t compensate a fool like you to Sky-shaking Cliff."

Sun Wukong said indifferently, as if completely ignoring Wu Yong. Wu Yong was immediately infuriated, stood up from his seat after the test, and challenged Sun Wukong, "Good! Very good! This Young Master will keep my eyes wide open to see how you scare me!"

"This unknown kid dares to challenge Wu Yong. Leaving aside the backing of the Sky-shaking Cliff’s Wu family, just based on his outstanding performance during the test, he’s very likely to be admitted to the Primordial Spirit Hall. This kid is just making an enemy for himself. His future days will be hard!"

"It’s not just the future. I think this kid is going to have bad luck now! Wu Yong isn’t someone easy to mock. Without real skills, if he takes one step out of the Primordial Spirit Hall’s gate, he would keel over in the street!"

"Exactly! A loose cultivator dares to offend Wu Yong of the Sky-shaking Cliff’s Wu family. Simply courting death!"
