Library of Heaven's Path 2: Eternal Fate of the Heavens

"How audacious!"

Upon hearing that Yan Sansan intended to challenge both the first and the second ranked in the Star River potential ranking at the same time, everyone gasped in shock.

"In a rush? Rushing to reincarnate?"

Any trace of a smile had vanished from Su Yunzhe's face, darkening his expression.

"Since you are oblivious to reason, I'll make you understand that your so-called talent is nothing before me!"

Fei Ling, equally displeased, strode forward.

Seeing him about to make a move, the crowd swiftly cleared a large area in the hall; Zhang Xuan and others were pushed to the back.

"Enough with the nonsense. Let's get on with it! The Heavenly Mandate test is about to begin..."

Yan Sansan shook his head, stepped forward, and without any unnecessary movements, he lunged with his right hand, his fingers swiftly engulfing an area of five meters in radius, flashing like electricity.

Fei Ling, who had previously been dismissive, now tightened his expression and confronted him with a step forward.

His footwork appeared quite special, as if stamping with a precious seal, gently imprinting a promising future.

It was his signature move, the Kui Star Seal!

Yan Sansan's expression unchanged, flicked his fingers and a thunder-like thread swept across, encountering the Kui Star Seal. At the same time, he strode forward, slamming down with his other palm.

One hand flicking, the other striking down; the movements might not look graceful but brought a sensation of tearing heaven and earth apart.

"You..."

Feeling the pressure of the move, Fei Ling's complexion slightly changed; he dared not block it directly and hurriedly retreated.

However, he retreated quickly, but Yan Sansan moved faster. The strength emanating from his fingertips whipped sharply.

Hiss!

Fei Ling's robe was slashed open, and he grunted, retreating seven or eight steps continuously.

He was at a significant disadvantage from this single strike.

"This is the first in the Star River potential rank? That's all!"

Having repelled Fei Ling with one move, Yan Sansan scoffed, turning his gaze again to Su Yunzhe, "I told you, all of you together... otherwise, you cannot win against me!"

"If you're seeking death, I shall grant it!"

Recognizing his opponent's extraordinary ability, Su Yunzhe coldly shouted, stepping forward. Even before he reached, his folding fan pointed out.

His precise technique seemed to cover all of Yan Sansan's major pressure points, but in reality, it held a hidden move, concealed within the last variation.

This variation, once giving Fei Ling a tremendous defeat the first time he faced it, was now executed to catch the opponent off guard, aiming to deprive him of his fighting ability instantly.

It was somewhat treacherous, but in martial contests, victory justified the means, and the process was secondary.

"Well done!"

Seemingly unaware of his hidden move, Yan Sansan roared. His Primordial Spirit suddenly appeared behind him, its shadowy figure merging instantly with his physical body, as he punched out.

No techniques, no skills, just pure, immense strength.

999 horsepower!

The blast and tide swept towards Su Yunzhe, who tried to adapt his moves but found that all techniques were futile against such raw power.

It was like a surfer performing elegantly in the waves until a hurricane-induced tsunami arrives; not only is surfing impossible, but one wouldn't even know how to die.

Su Yunzhe was facing exactly this situation now.

The complexity of his moves, coupled with the hidden strength, made his attack not very strong. Suddenly faced with such fierce aggression, he was at a loss for how to respond.

Bang!

An explosive burst of air resonated, and Su Yunzhe grunted, taking over a dozen steps back.

He actually couldn't withstand even a single strike from his opponent!

With two moves, Yan Sansan had repelled the first and the second ranked, standing undisturbed and without a trace of exhaust, his action leaving the onlookers speechless and astounded.

Everyone had guessed that this Yan Sansan would be powerful, but no one expected him to be this strong!

"Indeed not bad..."

Zhang Xuan, who had also witnessed the scene, couldn't help but nod secretly.

This fellow was almost catching up to him who hadn't yet comprehended the Heavenly Destiny.

"Together now!"

Seeing the astonished eyes of the crowd all focused on this outsider youth, Fei Ling and Su Yunzhe glanced at each other, setting aside their pride and stepping forward simultaneously.

It looked like they intended to join forces.

"The first and second-ranked teaming up against the third... have you no shame?"

Kong Shiyao snorted coldly.

She really despised such behavior.

"Alright, it's none of our business, don't interfere!" Zhang Xuan frowned.

"Yes!"

Kong Shiyao nodded. Although she stopped speaking, her voice had echoed throughout the room, causing everyone's gaze to shift strangely back to Fei Ling and Su Yunzhe once again.

The reason why countless youths worship the Star River Potential Rankings is because of the charm of geniuses and youth.

At this moment, those ranked first and second actually planned to join forces to deal with the third just to win, which was truly shameful.

Fei Ling's face turned red and then white, and he no longer had the face to step forward, instead, he folded his hands and bowed, "Brother Yan is strong, I admit defeat, and I am convinced..."

Having said that, he covered his face and left.

"I..." Su Yunzhe didn't expect the other to turn around and leave, hesitated for a moment, carefully recalled the other's battle techniques, and realized that he indeed couldn't break them, so he too sighed and said, "I am no match either!"

He too turned and left.

Seeing that the battle that was about to break out had dissipated into nothing because of the girl's words, everyone turned and looked over.

"Thank you!" Yan Sansan also turned towards Kong Shiyao, folding his hands and bowing.

"It's nothing, I just couldn't stand it…"

Kong Shiyao smiled slightly.

As a descendant of Empyrean Kong shi, she had been exceptionally talented and just since her childhood, and what she disliked the most was this kind of lack of self-awareness.

"Hmm…" Yan Sansan nodded, his gaze fell on Zhang Xuan and the others, and he couldn't help but shake his head.

The people who came today were here for the assessment and logically, the younger the age, the higher the success rate of finding their fates... From this group, the youngest were all in their twenties, and it was obvious that their talents were not too bad, but compared to him, they were still far inferior.

After pondering for a moment, he looked at Kong Shiyao, "You helped me once, and if I don't repay that, I can't be at peace. So later, when the Heavenly Mandate Force Tide begins, stay behind me. I will help you find a suitable fragment of the heavens as my way of repayment…"

"No need, I can just follow my teacher, he will protect us!" Kong Shiyao shook her head.

"Teacher?"

Yan Sansan looked puzzled at the crowd, seeming not to find anyone of an age that could be her teacher.

"I am..." Knowing what he was thinking, Zhang Xuan smiled and nodded.

"You?"

Yan Sansan looked closely at the young man before him, did not find his cultivation very high, but from his calm demeanor and speech, he could tell he was not a weakling.

He nodded and said nothing more.

Just then, an elder strode out from the chamber, looked around, and spoke loudly: "The assessment for the Heavenly Mandate begins now, ten people per group, welcome the Heavenly Mandate Force Tide, undergo the Heavenly Mandate Baptism, everyone has their own destiny, seize the one that fits you best to succeed..."

"The stone pillars outside the tide room can display what's happening inside, find the destiny that suits you, your name will appear and emit a red light, if not found, it won't display. The force tide applies huge pressure on the stamina, those who can withstand should continue, if you can't persist anymore, please leave quickly, otherwise, it will cause severe damage to your stamina."

"Yes!" Everyone nodded simultaneously.

This was almost common knowledge, explained just in case someone was recklessly ambitious.

Zhang Xuan had also specifically read books about the Origin Energy Tide beforehand and had already discussed it with everyone, all of whom nodded repeatedly.

"Let's begin, the first batch, those I call by name, step forward: You Menghua, Lu Jiaxi, Deng Xiangyu…"

Accompanied by the call, ten figures quickly stepped out.

About two of them were under twenty, while the remaining eight were all in their twenties, with the oldest seeming to be over thirty.

The ten people went into the room and the door closed.

Soon after, the stone pillars outside emitted a dazzling red light, a name emerged — Deng Xiangyu!

After a while, the stone door opened, and all the people walked out with pale faces.

"Only one of ten people found their destiny?" Zhang Xuan was slightly surprised upon seeing this scene.

He had long known that becoming a Fate Master wasn't easy, but he hadn't expected the odds to be so low.

Three more groups then went in consecutively, only two succeeded; thus, among the forty people, only three were successful, which is even less than a one out of ten chance.

To think that those who could come to take the assessment were already the best among hundreds, and yet after a further selection, less than ten percent succeeded. Even in this Zouyi City, becoming a Fate Master was not at all easy.

"Okay, next batch... Yan Sansan, He Mingsheng…"

After the elder read a few names, he continued with a perplexed face, "Huang Sisi, Zhang Daoli, Kong Shiyao..."

It was his first time hearing someone named "Little Deathless"; it was simply too unattractive.

As for Daoli… it did seem like a horse's name.

Curious, he then saw eight people walk up.

"Where are Huang Sisi and Zhang Daoli?"

After matching the names, the elder looked around puzzled.

They couldn't have paid 30 million Origin Currency and not shown up, could they?

"Chick chick chick chick!"

As he pondered, he suddenly heard an anxious voice; looking down, a little yellow chick stood behind the crowd, wings pressed to its chest, head held high, seemingly discontent with his oversight.

The elder was taken aback, then noticed a token hanging around its neck, vigorously rubbed his eyes, "You're not trying to say... your name is Huang Sisi... and you, too, want to take the Fate Master exam?"

The little yellow chick nodded repeatedly.

The elder's eyelids twitched, just about to say something, then he saw the controlled horse not far away snort loudly, revealing the token hanging around its neck.

"You're here for the assessment too?"

The elder was utterly baffled.

He had seen those who fail one assessment trying twice, and if not twice, trying three times… he had even seen someone paying for his girlfriend's assessment; but this was his first time witnessing payment for a chicken and a horse to take the assessment.
