《Unparalleled Emperor》C8. Testing
Advertisement
In the deepest corner of the ghetto, a rough shelter was located. It was difficult even for a ray of sunshine to filter in this room, and the air in it was wet.
However, this room seemed to be filled with broken gold, which looked a bit dazzling.
This was a shadow that gave off a wisp of golden waves, with a strong energy wind surrounded, and the air in this room was shaking. Those waves were somewhat powerful.
"Boom!" The breath of Dao Ling suddenly leaked out, and the golden waves became several times thicker at a time. This region was shaking, and the shelter shook too, as if to collapse.
He opened his eyes, and there was golden light shining in his eyes. He looked very excited, feeling his breath became stronger.
So strong the power was!
His first feeling was that his body had become stronger, and his muscles contained surging energy. It seemed that he could break a small hill with one punch. His body had evolved.
But then he felt messy.
The blood in his body was like a wild horse, with a sense of uncontrollability, and his twisted muscles hurt a bit.
"I must stop here. The speed of promotion is too fast during this time. I must forge my physical body. My body will be a big mess if not so!"
Dao Ling stood up and muttered in his heart that he had practiced too fast during this time, and his physical body had not been practiced systematically, which would cause the foundation of his body to be unstable.
His face was covered with joy. The power of the forth-rank foundation-building liquid was beyond his expectations. It felt that the whole body now seemed to be fully resurrected. Although it was somewhat unstable, it could be mastered by practice.
"Thank you so much, Ziyu." Dao Ling sniggered, but suddenly something came out of his mind. His eyes flickered and frowned slightly, and he thought, “During the three days for congesting this liquid, I also should carefully study Ying-Yang Hand”.
He felt it was impossible for him to master such a martial art, because the dual energy of yin and yang was required. The energy in Dao Ling belonged to the extreme heat level, which needed the extremely cold energy to press it so that he had chance to practice. This conflict bothered him very much.
Because these two energies were essentially extreme, Dao Ling had no idea how to combine them.
"Maybe I need to find the Icy Ferocious Beast and transform my body." Dao Ling licked his lips. This seemed to be the only way at this time. Or maybe it was the true meaning of the primitive holy body -- You can change your body as you want!
"My body now seems to be reaching a limit." Feeling his own body, Dao Ling thought: "This is the limit, the physical limit. Maybe the Heaven Devouring can help me break the limit! When the foundation is stable, maybe I am able to swallow the blood of Ferocious Primitive Beasts!” Excitement covered Dao Lin face, and he got up and walked toward the Xingchen Academy. He had been closed for three days.

Today, Qingshan College was very busy. A very small part of students were in high spirits, while most were distressed, because today was the day for the enrollment section of Xingchen Academy. If you failed the enrollment section, you got no chance for taking part in the evaluation section.
By the way, Xingchen Academy was one of the largest academy in Qingzhou, and it was situated in the Qingzhou City, which made it more admirable for students. After all, Qingzhou City was a place where the strong gathered, as well as those prodigies. You also had
chance to approach the prosperity and affluence of this world
The martial classroom was crowded and abuzz with discussion. But when a young man appeared at the door, the whole martial classroom suddenly became quiet, and then burst into laughter.
“Really? This jerk hasn’t been to the academy for days, and I thought he had left out of self-awareness."
"I'm laughing to death! He hasn’t come until today for enrollment? Is he still in a dream?"
"Ha Ha, does this ‘Morpheus’ still want to sign up? I think he must be sleepwalking!"
"You jerk!" Qian Yi was in rage. He stared at Dao Ling coldly, but then he was pleasantly surprised -- he had initially thought that Dao Ling would not dare to come because he was afraid of him.
Now that Dao Ling came, then Qian Yi had a chance to revenge.
"Wait for your death. I must kill you!" Qian Yi shouted in his heart: "I will not let you die easily. If you dare to offend me, you would be killed!"
Qian Yi also watched Dao Ling coldly. Although he didn't know why this jerk had strength suddenly, it was simply dicing with death to beat Qian Yi.
Listening to the scorn and ridicule that appeared around him, Dao Ling touched his chin helplessly. When he was about to go inside the classroom, he felt a cold gaze toward him suddenly. This made him feel like falling into an ice cave, and his countenance became stiff, because this gaze was too familiar.
Dao Ling turned to look at Ye Yun's cheek that was red because of anger, and laughed bitterly in his mind, but still couldn't help but admire his teacher’s angry face.
Ye Yun was slender with delicate skin, which oozed a clean and refined feeling. But now she was extremely angry -- he dared not come to the academy? She felt offended, and said coldly, “Come out!”
“Sorry, Professor Ye, I have something private these days.” Dao Ling felt a tingling sensation and whispered, “It is so normal not to come to such an academy.” But he never expected that Ye Yun cared about him so much, and he felt conflicted.
May be Ye Yun was the only person who would care about him in the whole academy.
“Look at you, I am so disappointed.” She used her finger to click on his shoulder, but not too hard for fear of punching him away. But then she was shocked.
With her silky hair fluttering, she used her finger to click on Dao Ling's shoulder again. Then her fingers stiffened, and her expression was abnormally astonishing. Her eyebrows were slightly raised, and she could feel his muscles tense up and contain a great power.

“You made it?” She became excited all at once, because she could feel his change, which could not be made by a normal man without any practice.
“Well, I made it.” Dao Ling raised his head and smiled to her.
Her eyes widened after hearing that, and she looked at this confident young man, nodding with excitement: “Great! Work harder and strive to join Xingchen Academy next year!”
“I am going in this time.” He muttered in his mind, but nodded,” I will try my best.”
“What a surprise!” Ye Yun thought in with a smile wreathed on her face. But then she sighed: “What a pity, I will be back to Xingchen Academy immediately. Why such a miracle never appeared earlier? Otherwise I will have a chance to bring this ‘Morpheus’ back.”
Seeing Dao Ling walking in unscathed, those students in the martial classroom were surprised -- how could the professor let him go again?
Qian Lin came toward him with hatred, and whispered with a sense of condescension, “Watch out, you bastard. You will die today, and just try to enjoy this test. It will be your last test.”
“Let’s see.” Dao Ling smiled gently, and went to his own seat.
“How dare you be rude to me!” Qian Lin’s fist clenched, his face tuned blue and shouted in his mind, “How dare the son of a bitch use such a tone to talk to me. He wanna die!”
“Let’s see, I will reward you with a miserable death, a terrible death!” Qian Lin took a deep breath and clenched his teeth in anger. “He definitely thinks that I dare not kill him. Wait for your death, you bastard!”
After about an hour, a vigorous old man came in, and he was the vice dean of the academy. He was full of joy because of the great successes achieved in the tests in other martial classrooms -- two students in the realm of Spirit Rhythm were found in Qingshan Academy,
What made him more surprised was Wang Ya, an unknown quiet girl, who had come into the realm of the Spirit Rhythm. The vice dean was also glad at the same time, because a student in this realm could be easily accepted by Xingchen Academy.
“Guys, this test is related to the qualification of Xingchen Academy. Those who possess the power of ten thousand kilograms shall be up to par.”
His words silenced the whole class, and everyone smiled ruefully. This test was so difficult, and very few of them could possess such power.
“In order to save everyone’s time, those without enough power, just stay where you are.” The vice dean said and then sat down to start the test.
In this very classroom, only five students dared to have a try. Ye Yun looked at them and felt upset. She thought it was a failure to train those rookies without a single one who could reach the realm of Spirit Rhythm in the end.
But when she turned to Dao Ling, and looked at his young and clean face, she comforted herself, “Fortunately, there is still a miracle for me. It’s not too bad.”
“Boom!” The giant stone was shaking, and she glanced forward. There was only Qian Lin who could reach the standard, but still too much a green hand to join the Xingchen Academy.
“Qian Lin, eleven thousand kilograms!” The vice dean nodded slightly with a sense of contemptuousness. He thought Ye Yun was a figure with high level of practice in Xingchen Academy, but not really a competent teacher for the training.
Qian Lin smiled, enjoyed the jealous looks around him, and exuded an air of a king. It looked as if he regarded himself as a supreme god to others around him.
But at this moment, his eyebrows trembled once, and he stared at Dao Ling, who had stood up and was walking toward the giant stone slowly. “What the hell will this jerk do?” He thought.
The whole class was shocked, and every one looked at Dao Ling. “What is ‘Morpheus’ doing?”
“Are you still sleepwalking? Get back, it is not a place where you can go!”
“Come on, man, get off. Don’t embarrass us. You get no power at all, and don’t kill yourself by accident!”
The whole class burst into jeer. Ye Yun also frowned, and cast a quick glance on his young but confident face. “Really? Is this ’Morpheus’ a black horse today?” She thought.
“What are you doing here? Get off now!” The vice dean was unhappy at all. What was this “Morpheus” doing? Was he dreaming of testing his power here? Went for his stupid dream!
“Sir, I come to test my fist power.” Dao Ling looked at him and said gently.
The scene here became weird, and everyone here was stunned. The only thought in their mind must be this: “This jerk has lost his mind.” He even dared to come forward for testing his power, and the vice dean must split him by one blow when seeing his result of zero power.
“You? Get off, I have no time for you.” The vice dean said so, and gradually his face began to turn purple with rage, because this bastard ignored his words and even raised his fist!
Some students couldn’t help closing their eyes, for they didn’t want to watch the bloodshed.
Dao Ling clenched his fist, gazed at the stone and then, raised his fist to bash it. At first, the stone shook once, and then it shuddered.
They fixed their eyes on the stone, and they found this movement was similar to the one that Qian Lin just made before.

Flap Merganser: Space Duck
This story began as joke to troll some dude on reddit, but I fell in love with the premise and kind of went crazy writing without any direction or planning. Luckily for me, I spent a couple months convinced I was dying and stepped away from the project. I'm not dying by the way, at least not any more than in the traditional sense. But during that period of inner turmoil, I was able to step back and realize I wasn't too thrilled with the direction this was going. So I have relaunched this project under the name Duck Around and Find Out. Some elements will be the same, and some early chapters may be pretty close to what was in the original draft, but I wanted to get into the action with a bit more haste. That being said, I'm going to leave this up here for now so that you can see how this whole project started. So read it if you want to. Or don't. I don't really care. I'm just happy I don't actually have a terminal cancer.
