Looking at how Long Hao was still able to move with ease, nearly all of them was looking at the kid with horror.

How in the world that brat managed to stay energetic?

Lin Xiao also felt his mind blanked for a bit before he recalled what Long Hao said to him before. Golden Core Stage 2 was nothing for Long Hao because his family had rules that everyone had to be able to fight against Golden Core Stage 2 when they were still at Foundation Establishment.

With the addition of the array to help, the examination just now was nothing but a walk on the park for Long Hao.

Lin Xiao: "…" I feel that I'm going to be overtaken by my disciple soon.

Lin Hu scoffed. It was more like, Lin Xiao never had the qualification to be the boy's master except in the area of teaching the language and also the ancient power. Aside from that… Lin Xiao was too poor.

"I'm fine." Lin Xiao nodded. With the Nourishing Lake Technique working on full speed inside his body, Lin Xiao's wound had mostly healed. For someone like him, as long as he was not wounded fatally, it was not a big deal.

Long Hao looked at how fast Lin Xiao healed and his eyes shone in astonishment. Even in his clan, to be able to heal wounds within such a short period of time was very queer and amazing. Not everyone was capable to do that.

It was usually related to some secret technique or some kind of special characteristic one might be born with. One thing for sure, it was uncommon. 

"What was that from before?" Hu Fei asked while trembled slightly. For sure, he had no intention of repeating the same thing ever again. He felt his life flashed before his eyes a few times during the time he fought that shadow.

"Test?"

"Test?" Princess Lan Yi Hua blinked her eyes. She looked at the table before them and nodded. "It's not impossible."

"How many people survived?" Lin Xiao swept his gaze and noticed that there were only around 40 to 50 people who managed to survive including them. His lips twitched at the high rate of elimination.

There were a lot of people who came here and most of them had died.

"Hei Ye."

"Yes?" Xia Ye had already arrived and swiftly moved to Lin Xiao's side. Thanks to his training with Prince Lin San, he had long gotten used to move at rapid speed. 

Those who had dark element as their main element would be able to traverse through shadows. It was one of the main method for them to evade their opponents and it was also thanks to this characteristic that many of them could end up becoming an assassin and survived for a long time in that type of work. 

"Gather here for now." Prince Lin Yan was paying close attention to the others and his brows furrowed. Most of others who survived were already at Golden Core Stage 2. Considering their current capabilities, it was impossible for them to defeat someone at Golden Core Stage 2.

They had to grow stronger faster if they wanted to contend against a cultivator at Golden Core Stage 2.

They were only 7 people with two of them at Golden Core Stage 2 while the other five were at Foundation Establishment. While Long Hao could possibly fight against Golden Core Stage 2, the other four might only able to fight against one and might still be at disadvantages.

The other group from Hua Lan Kingdom consist of several people, around 4 or 5 at Golden Core Stage 3. Lei Xing Yi, Mu Xiao Ya, Sang Guan, Pei Chuan, and another one they didn't know.

Should a fight break out, it was almost impossible that they would be able to fight against them and still have the upper hand.

Those from other kingdoms, such as Jade Snow Kingdom and also Bing Yue Kingdom also only have 4 to 5 people left in their group. On the other hand, those from the other kingdoms had around 20 people or so left in their group. Even if they might come from different group, they were still at overwhelming number.

'Just from the survival rate alone, it's clear that they have better cultivation and ability compared to those from Sun Kingdom.'

Lin Xiao was silently watching those people. His lips curled up. How interesting. He had to make sure that he would be able to grow stronger and stronger so that he could overtake them.

So what if they came from a place with more resources than him?

When he became the Emperor, he would create a lake so that those people could grow stronger. He wouldn't believe that with this method, those in Sun Kingdom wouldn't grow more powerful.

'Hmm?'

Lin Hu noticed that Lin Xiao's emotion was stirred and that there was something breaking. His eyes narrowed as he glanced at the core of the Dragon Power within Lin Xiao's body. Unlike many other geniuses, Lin Xiao's dragon power was actually so enormous that it had to be sealed.

It was unknown who sealed it but that person did it well and the Dragon Power that was flowing in Lin Xiao's body was only above average.

Ordinary people wouldn't notice but those like Prince Lin San who had Eyes of Truth would be able to notice. Lin Hu had the inkling that even from the moment of Lin Xiao's birth, it was already predestined that he would obtain Emperor's Inheritance.

The seal was slowly opening, providing more Dragon Power into Lin Xiao's body.

'So this brat still has thoughts that befitting of an Emperor.'

Lin Hu snorted. And here he thought that Lin Xiao was more of a bratty brat who didn't know how to use his power well. Now that it was like this, it was clear that he had thoughts that suited him to be an Emperor.

But it was only the beginning.

There were still many seals left. It was unknown how many years would it take for Lin Xiao to be a proper Emperor.
