Chapter 794: Tiankeng Assessment
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
The Tian family.
It was as bustling as always.
Since the last time when Su Hao created havoc in the Tian family, the middle-level strength of the entire Tian family had been greatly impacted. In fact, a gap was formed.
For top strength, the Tian family had no shortage.
For the strength at the bottom, the Tian family didn’t lack it either.
However, talking about the domain realm, which represents the backbone of an entire family, Su Hao had completely eradicated everyone from top to bottom. Whether it was the outside domain espers acting as cannon fodder or the Tian family’s core strength, even the manager of the Tian family had all been culled by Su Hao!
Not even one survived.
One can see how deep the hatred between the Tian family and Su Hao is!
Because of this, the Tian family began to madly recruit domain espers and even transferred those dispatched outside the city back, but it’s still not enough! Far from enough! A domain esper represents authority. If they are all transferred back, what about their territory in other places?
It’s still fine for them to occasionally come here for a visit, but to make them stay here is impossible!
What to do next?
Open it to the public!
The Tian family clearly stated that as long as you have the strength of a domain esper and have a clean record, you can stay in the Tian family forever. If you sign the residency contract, you can then enjoy the same treatment as a core disciple of the Tian family. With such a luxury, you can become a true member of the Tian family!
When such news came out, the entire southeast region shook!
This is such a big opportunity!
In the past, how high and strict were the condition for the Tian family to accept new members? And now? There are many things waiting to be done. Such a perfect opportunity must not be missed. In fact, quite a number of people were grateful to Su Hao. To enjoy the same treatment as the core disciples of the Tian family, isn’t that something that every member of the Tian family yearns for? And now...
The Tian family is waving at you with an open arm.
The origin ability era is very chaotic, especially to those domain espers in the wild. Oh, not the wild, but they are just domain espers with no background! With no firm background, so what if you’re a domain esper? Once you meet someone who is stronger than yourself, you’re still going to end up dead!
Only when one has a background will the enemy be wary, and the Tian family is simply the perfect background.
Quick, go!
Rush to the Tian family!
All the domain espers within the southeast region became restless. In fact, many espers from other regions were jealous and even came from afar to the Tian family.
In an instant, the power in the Federation changed again.
Such a move from the Tian family literally made every force dumbfounded. No one would have thought that the Tian family’s one time-recruitment for domain espers would set off such a giant storm! In fact, everyone was well aware that since the chaotic era, each family focuses on training their own family members to be strong. Who would bother with those rogue espers?
When resources are limited, they don’t even have enough ability to nurture their own men. Who would bother to nurture outsiders?
Isn’t it funny?
Thus, in the past decade, almost no families would recruit outsiders. With so many espers stepping into the domain realm all over the Federation, it was simply the era of ignorance.
Now the Tian family’s recruitment caused havoc. That day, over one hundred people registered, which scared the Tian family’s staff members.
“This is crazy!”
“How could there be so many domain espers?!”
“F*ck, did they miswrite the information? It should be professional esper, right? Quick, go look outside. My heart is feeling uneasy. What’s actually happening here?”
A number of staff members had their faces paled.
However, this was only the beginning.
On the second day, the total number of applicants reached three hundred.
On the third day, the number had exceeded 500.
On the fourth and fifth days, this number still grew!
The Tian family was stupefied.
The entire Federation was also shaken.
Since when did the Federation has this much domain esper?
“Exactly what’s going on here?”
“We have not accepted people for so long. It’s the result of accumulation during this past decade.” Someone quickly pointed out the problem, “And the biggest question is how many of them are sincere? With such a large crowd, I am afraid some of them are undercover sent by other forces, hehe...”
Everyone was happy to hear this.
The Tian family had been holding the first spot for so many years. There must be numerous people who had been offended.
“The Tian family is about to be bleeding big time.”
“Hehe, well, this is inevitable. If one wants to improve their strength, you have to pay the price, right? However, although there aren’t that many domain espers, coming from the entire Federation... if the Tian family doesn’t handle it well, it might have to face the consequences. After all, domain espers aren’t people to be trifled with.”
“I am afraid the Tian family wasn’t expecting there to be this many domain espers. This is going to be interesting. Let us wait and enjoy a good show. See whether they will accept everyone or not.”
“With so many domain espers, if it’s not handled well, this will be a huge mess!”
Things were getting more and more interesting.
This storm started by the Tian family had turned all the other forces within Federation into onlookers. They wanted to see how the Tian family would deal with this situation! However, no one would have thought that the Tian family didn’t experience much negative impact as imagined.
“How is Tian Zi’s strength?”
“With the completion of a breakthrough into the domain realm, his strength has increased with the consolidation of his domain. Although it’s still somewhat unstable, after it stabilized, it won’t be any weaker than Wan Cheng’s.”
“Great, if Tian Long Court can give birth to Wan Cheng, my Tian family can’t fall behind. What about the other aspects?”
“Not great, Tian Zi might need more distance to cover to be a qualified Clan Head. There is a fatal flaw in his personality. Being targeted by Su Hao several times, the shadow within his heart might not be small. From having arrogance, he became somewhat indecisive. He became gutless and doesn’t dare to go all out.”
“Enough.” Tian Gang walked down leisurely, “Such a character is just right.”
“Huh?”
The elders of the Tian family were stunned. It was such a big flaw, how could it be just right?
“Critical moments must be entrusted with heavy responsibility.” Tian Gang smirked, “If Tian Zi is arrogant, I won’t let him become in charge of the family. Being indecisive, isn’t it making a decision with further thought if we look at it from another aspect? With the Tian family being in such a state, what we need now is a defensive Clan Head to stabilize the Tian family. Tian Zi, he just met the requirement.”
“Understood.”
All elders respectfully answered.
“We will proceed with all plans secretly. The position of Clan Head, we will leave it to Tian Zi for him to play with. This game has already begun. Whether he’s a chess piece or a player, it all depends on his actions.”
Tian Gang looked towards the distance.
His eyes were awe-inspiring.
That day, when everyone in the Federation was placing their gaze toward the sudden emergence of numerous domain espers, not only did the Tian family not decrease the reward but increased the original reward instead, causing everyone to be at a loss. Moreover, when this news appeared, the Tian family also issued a request for all applicants to participate in an assessment trial.
The Tian family opened an energy ruin, “Tiankeng.”
The Tian family set that all applicants must prove their strength.
There are a hundred special tokens within “Tiankeng.” Everyone needs to enter there for the trial, get the token in order to succeed in joining the family. Those who failed will also receive a generous participation reward.
The period of “Tiankeng” opened is only one day.
It will start from 12 noon and end at 12 noon the next day. If one doesn’t come out by then, it’s considered a waiver. Those one hundred people who successfully obtain the token would receive a double reward!
“Double!”
“Damn, the Tian family is so generous.”
“Generous your head, haven’t you noticed the problem yet? If it’s previously to accept one thousand domain espers which are hard even for the Tian family, now with only one hundred spots, even if the reward is doubled, it’s only worth 200 people. Plus, for the top 100 espers within this one thousand espers, which one of them won’t have a strong calibre? The Tian family plans to nurture the best among the best. What an ambitious move!
“Now that sounds true when you say it like that.”
“If not for the lack of resources, the Tian family might really accept everyone! Hehe, the Tian family is just trying to accept the strongest espers within its capability.”
The crowd was discussing among themselves.
Although numerous people cursed at this new rule set by the Tian family, it’s all because they are jealous of the top 100 strongest domain espers. However, many were also excited to participate in this so-called assessment.
Even when they knew the danger!
Even when they knew this is the Tian family’s strategy, they still can’t stop from being tempted by the double reward. Not only enjoying a backing but also resources? This is literally the best dream by every rogue esper. The madness in the registration didn’t stop as it became even more popular.
As the deadline closed, there was a total of 1,200 participants!
This is unimaginable.
There are already so many people who participated in Tiankeng. What about those who didn’t? It’s hard to imagine in this peaceful era, there are actually these many domain espers hiding from the public!
Since when were there this many domain espers?
Su Hao suddenly remembered what the old ancestor of the Su family said when they were at school. His eyesight was too narrow. Only when he frees himself from it can one truly appreciate power.
Domain realm...
To his past self, how mysterious was it?
Even when his strength kept improving, even when Su Hao killed several domain espers, he still believed that domain espers are rare but now...
He saw 1,200 applicants!
This only included those who were willing to come to the Tian family. What about the others who didn’t? If one is to count everyone all over the Federation, the number will scare the hell out of people! Only with such a shocking scene could it heighten Su Hao’s horizons.
“Indeed, the Tian family is worthy of its fame.” Su Hao’s eyes lit up. Only with this did it indicated that the Tian family has an abundance of resources! Such a family, how could he not be envious? Su Hao wanted to see how much more the Tian family has in resources when compared with the Su family.
Within the bustling crowd, no one noticed that among those who signed up, there was a burly middle-aged man who was looking at the Tian family with hunger and thirst. His eyes were full of fire.
On the third day of registration, everyone arrived at Tian City.
At noon on the same day, the Tian family sent everyone to the so-called entrance of Tiankeng. When Tiankeng opened its door, the 1,200 strong espers stepped inside.
The way the Tian family assessed them was so strange that it made people feel unusual.
However, in any case, they would have never thought that what’s more unusual is the Clan Head of the Su family, who is a cripple, is among them.
The trial assessment “Tiankeng” begun!
