"Boom", I looked at the number jumping from 0 to 100-> 1000-> 10000-> 20000-> 30000-> 40000-> 50000-> 100000-> 110000-> 120000-> 130000-> 140000->450000-> 500000-> 1000000-> 2000000-> 3000000-> 5000000-> 10000000->100000000-> 1000000000.

The numbers finally stopped, Eric shocked himself to death, he never knew he was this strong but that happiness of feeling strong soon vanished as he heard the system.

*Ding*= The skill [I don't have a name for] has taken effect and has changed your result from 13757 to 1 billion

'what do you mean?'

*Ding*= when you activated the skill [I don't have a name for}] made the block to give a wrong measurement, and you were lucky enough the measurement was high and not low.

Eric turned around to look at the audience and the judge but to only witness everybody's mouths dropped down to the floor, as if they were giving birth from their mouth like a frog.

Eric asked the Judge "Have I passed".

The judge jumped out of his dais and came to Eric while saying "senior, you have passed the test with flying colours but you don't need to do the test as you can become a grand elder without even needing to do the test for the grand elder position.

"So, am I disciple or a grand elder"

The judge looked at him with respect in his eyes as he replied, "It would be a shame, to our sect if we let you become a disciple and not a grand elder".

Now that Eric's score was so high that he knew no one was going to beat the score and asked for the prize "can I have the prize than?".

"Senior, the test is meant to be for people under 25 and you are not 25 or below, that means that you are not allowed to participate in the competition if you are older than 25". He said to Eric with his respect, decreasing by a bit but not enough to be noticed by anyone except himself.

Eric was very interested about how this person was going to feel when he told him that he is below 25.

"I'm 19 and I qualify for the test"

Now the judge felt a bit irritated as this person was going this far to just get a pill that was meant for the younger generation of the Lang Sect. If he didn't know that this person was a sovereign, he probably take out his sword and cut Eric's head.

The judge knew that this person was not going to fall back so, he asked one of the member of the the sect bring him an age testing stone. He knew that when he shows this person's real age to the audience on the ground, he would be humiliating him in front of this many people. Even though Eric didn't know why he was doing this but the people on the ground thought this person was a very righteous person and was trying to look after the younger generation, but the people that thought that he was a good person was very wrong.

At the start the judge tried to act natural and invite this person to the sect but what he truly wanted to do was just disqualify this person by saying that he was to old, but if he did he would be punished by the sect for not inviting a power house to their sect.

He followed what every normal person from the sect would do and invited him to the sect and become the 10th grand elder which was meant to be his position, but thanks to this guy he lost the spot.

Luckily the person asked for the prize, so he used this excuse to ridicule Eric.

Now he was feeling very happy inside to see this person lose face in front of so many people.

The other member of the sect brought the age testing stone to the judge and gave it him, he took the stone and gave it to Eric and told him to pour his qi to see his age.

Eric followed as he was instructed and poured his qi in the stone, the stone slowly moved in numbers and stopped at 19.8, showing that he was 19 and 8 months old.

He looked at the judge to see he was petrified as if he just saw a ghost coming after his life.

Eric thought that he was probably petrified because of his age but, he was petrified the moment he saw Eric's qi.

The Judges P.O.V

This person that said that he was younger than 25 and was a sovereign, took the age measuring stone from my hand and started to put his qi in it. I was ready to ridicule him about telling a lie about being 19 but the moment I saw his qi I was frightened the living life out of me cause of the purity of his. Comparing his qi to mine would be comparing a fire flies light to a moons light coming down to earth.

I thought that his purity of qi was high but the next moment I saw his age, which nearly killed me for real.

Back to story

Eric looked at the judge and saw no light in his eyes, showing that he was mentally disturbed, Eric thought that he was the only one but the moment he looked to the audience he saw the same eyes.

It was as if something had turned off their brains and they were brain dead now, Eric stood there for a while waiting for the judge and the others to come back to life but I couldn't hold it in anymore as they were not moving an inch for quite a while.

Eric went closer to the judge and shook his body so he could come back to his body and start moving around and tell him if he could get the prize now.

After shaking him for a while, the lights in his eyes returned and started to move around.

After he came back in control of his mind asked him "Do I get the prize now?"
