Emperor’s Domination

s. Some of these treasures werent bad at all, especially Zhan Hus. How could he just give them away without leaving a single one for himself?

Even the greatest genius at the Iron Skin realm would desire a good treasure for various reasons. No one would say no to having more items.

Alas, he acted as if they were too low quality to enter his eyes. This certainly confused the elders.

“How eccentric.” One elder murmured. They couldnt predict anything when it came to Li Qiye. The strangest things kept on happening around him.

The other disciples couldnt believe it either. Li Qiye gave so many treasures away without batting an eye. They havent seen such a generous soul before, not even the seniors or the elders.

They stared at the young children with jealousy and envy. The ones who lost felt even more annoyed. Their treasures were given away to someone else. Li Qiye should have at least kept them…

“Ahem, the fourth trial, lets go.” Zhang Yue interrupted the strange atmosphere and ordered.

Everyone regained their wits and started walking towards the next trial.

During this walk, Qianyue had her eyes on Li Qiye the entire time. This has been the case ever since he derived ten dao laws out of those bones.

She didnt have an answer to this puzzle. Remember, she was the first from Divine Black to see him. He came out of the pond at that point. Now, he was a member of Divine Black while carrying out all these strange things.

This made her question the possible scenarios. Was it really a coincidence or was there something else going on behind the scene?

They climbed the stairs and made it to the gate of the fourth trial. After the gate was a platform situated between the ancestral peak and the school.

One could see stairs leading all the way up to the clouds.

“Heaven Climb Steps.” An elder said while looking at the examinees.

Many have heard of these steps before and began talking among themselves.

“I heard that the suppression up there is insanely powerful. No one has made it to the top.” One said.

“Really, no one?” A new disciple found this surprising.

“Yes, I heard that the first one hundred steps are for the trial, the next two hundred steps are for the seniors to train. No person during their youth has ever made it up there. Why? Its because only someone at the sacred level or stronger can withstand the pressure. One needed to rely on themselves. Treasures and other schemes were useless. Thus, these steps became a good measurement for ones strength. Making it one hundred steps meant that the person was a supreme genius.” The first speaker responded.

“One needs to be at the Yin Yang level for the next two hundred steps. Otherwise, they wont be able to take a single step. In fact, very few members of our sect can reach the two-hundredth step.” A different member joined. He has been in Divine Black long enough to know more.
