Global Catastrophe: I Became the World Tree-Chapter 562 - 329: Core Member Assessment_2

"Agreed!" Chen Dalong nodded, but soon he thought of something and asked, "When they register you, which Realm’s sea selection will you participate in?"

If it were someone else, he wouldn’t bother asking and would just register them according to their current Realm.

But Ye Feng was a Divine Envoy, whose cultivation speed was beyond comparison to ordinary people.

Hearing him ask Ye Feng like this, curious, Ye Feng asked, "With so many people across the country, even with the sea selection, it will probably take a week or two, right? If someone breaks through to a Big Realm during this process, how is that counted?"

Chen Dalong replied, "According to the rules, it’s calculated based on the Realm after the breakthrough, and subsequent competitions will also be dealt with by moving up a level."

"For example, if someone was at the First Order Peak when they registered but broke through to the Stage Two Initial during the sea selection, then all their subsequent opponents will also be of the Second Stage."

Ye Feng nodded after hearing this, finding such arrangements reasonable. Otherwise, many people might exploit this loophole and break through after entering the competition.

"Then let’s not fill in my Realm on the registration form for now. We can discuss it when the time comes, because I don’t know to what Realm I could advance in a week’s time," Ye Feng said.

If he wanted to, he could even advance to the Sixth Order in a week’s time, but there was no need to rush things like that.

In addition, he was not clear how long it would take, as he demanded the strongest foundation for each Realm.

After dinner, Chen Dalong didn’t stay long and soon left.

Ye Feng and his family then sat in the living room watching television, talking as they watched, with mother Wang Shuwen continuing to prattle about the events of the past three months.

Even though Ye Feng was fully aware of his family’s affairs, he still listened patiently.

At 10 p.m., Ye Rou got ready for bed, but she was very reluctant and clung to Ye Feng, asking him to tell her a story to help her sleep.

Ye Feng had always been fond of his little sister, and thus indulged her, spending half an hour to coax her to sleep and even promised to take her to the amusement park the next day.

"Aren’t you still supposed to be cultivating for the talent training plan? And yet you plan to take Xiao Rou out tomorrow. Won’t that be too tight on time?" mother Wang Shuwen couldn’t help but say.

"Mom, don’t worry about it! I have Tri-series Special Abilities, and I’ve also got Space Superpowers, losing would be difficult for me," Ye Feng said with a smile.

"Look at you showing off, just don’t be careless," Wang Shuwen warned with a huff.

Ye Feng chuckled, and soon he too returned to his room.

During the time he was coaxing his sister to sleep, his mother had already tidied up his room for him.

Lying in his old bed, reminiscing about the events of the past few months, Ye Feng felt as if he were in a dream.

After a while, his wrist’s Storage Bracelet flashed with silvery light, and a Metal Token appeared in his hand.

After injecting a strand of Spiritual Power into it, he directly said, "Lord Gu Ao Duo, my human avatar has been resurrected, and I wish to apply for the Heavenly Court core member assessment."

"So you’ve finally sorted it out, alright, I’ll bring you over right now," Lord Gu Ao Duo’s voice carried a hint of excitement.

Then Ye Feng felt his Metal Token emit waves of Spatial Fluctuations that enveloped him.

Previously, Ye Feng had no perception of such spatial energy, but now his gaze flickered, as he sensed a part of the energy related to Space Shift within it.

If he wanted to, he could probably directly manipulate this part of the force and cause the teleportation to fail.

"I wonder when I’ll be able to rely on myself to teleport directly to the Land of Inheritance," Ye Feng murmured to himself. In the next instant, he vanished from the room.

...

When Ye Feng’s feet touched solid ground again, he found himself once again at the foot of Rule Mountain.

Before him floated a sphere, its back equipped with a pair of wings—it was none other than Gu Ao Duo, whom he hadn’t seen for several days.

After Ye Feng was teleported over, it began to rotate around him, its small eyes emitting a light, as if scanning Ye Feng’s body.

Ye Feng did not resist, simply standing there.

"Not bad, not bad at all, the strength of your body is just as I expected, far exceeding that of other First Order cultivators at the same realm."

"And this Sea of Consciousness of yours, truly magnificent. This is a tremendous advantage that you must utilize early on, so when you rebuild your cultivation, your spiritual power will be even stronger than that of your Spirit Plant Avatar."

"Eh! You actually have an Origin Mark in your body. That’s right, this is unique to the last batch of creatures from the Land of Revival. You all are likely to be the last splendor of this era."

"Furthermore, you’ve branded two marks—impressive. But biting off more than you can chew is not good. Remember, the Life Rule is your foundation. The Supreme Rule cannot be compared with other rules. Wait, hold on..."

As Gu Ao Duo spoke, his eyes suddenly widened, "Is this a Spatial Origin Mark? No, it’s just a part of the space marks, probably related to Space Shift."

"But this is also an Origin Mark. You can take this opportunity to comprehend it. With your talent, it is possible for you to understand the Space Rule."

Towards the end, Gu Ao Duo’s voice trembled with excitement.

As one should know, among the five highest rules, the Life Rule is the best at defending, while the Space Rule is the best at escaping.

In the future, choosing to travel the Ancient Cosmic Path to other Big Universes, one will inevitably encounter numerous dangers.

Hence, among the five rules, mastering both the Life Rule and Space Rule is most advantageous.

And now, Ye Feng might have mastered both these Supreme Rules. How could Gu Ao Duo not be excited?

If we say that Ye Feng, with the Life Rule, has a fifty percent chance of successfully traveling to other universes, then mastering the two Supreme Rules could raise his success rate to over 90 percent.

Ye Feng watched Gu Ao Duo go from eyes wide in surprise to euphoria and then to a silly grin as he spoke. He himself was speechless.

"Cough! Gu Ao Duo, can we start the assessment now?" Ye Feng extended his hand and waved it in front of the other party.

"I’ve said it before, call me ’Lord,’ Lord Gu Ao Duo," Gu Ao Duo said sternly after regaining his composure.

"Alright, Lord Gu Ao Duo, may I ask if we can start the assessment now?" Ye Feng asked again.

A title was of no consequence to him; what mattered most was to secure the benefits.

Moreover, once he became a true inheritor of the Heavenly Court and inherited its legacy, he could revisit this issue with the other party later on.

"Then follow me." Gu Ao Duo flew ahead, leading Ye Feng towards the outskirts of Rule Mountain.

Soon, he followed Gu Ao Duo to a massive valley.

"This is the place for the assessment."

As soon as Gu Ao Duo finished speaking, Ye Feng felt the ground start to shake, then one by one, Rock Puppets emerged from the earth.

Watching the Rock Puppets appear continuously, Ye Feng’s scalp began to tingle. With his spiritual power, he could tell at a glance that there were as many as a thousand Rock Puppets in the valley.

"The rules of the assessment are simple. Defeat 10 Rock Puppets within an hour to become an outer member of the Heavenly Court."

"Defeat 100 Rock Puppets to become an official member."

"Only by defeating 1000 Rock Puppets can you become a core member."

"Although the rules are simple, the difficulty is very high. Since you are at the First Order, you will face First Order Peak Rock Puppets."

"In other words, the standard to become a core member is being able to fight against a thousand, which is truly being unrivaled at the same realm," Gu Ao Duo said seriously.

Ye Feng’s expression grew solemn. Such an assessment was quite a challenge for him.

Of course, without the time limit condition, Ye Feng could slowly adopt guerrilla tactics to defeat a thousand Rock Puppets, which wouldn’t be difficult.

But the problem is, with only one hour given, the difficulty increased immensely.

Because this meant, on average, he had to defeat a Rock Puppet in less than 3.6 seconds.
