Hao Ren changed into his long robe from his jacket.
The last time he went to the Nine Dragon Palace, Hao Ren was wearing a Dao robe that had embroideries on the sides. That was his first time wearing traditional clothing.
This 'examination outfit' was plainer than the one he used to wear. Other than the two little silver dragon embroideries on his shoulders, there were no other decorations on his robe. The material was also not rare at all, just something you could find anywhere.
The robe was just long enough to cover his ankles.
The rooms were only half a square meter big. From the long table, which was placed against the wall, to the other walls, it was just enough to fit one person.
Hao Ren sat on the chair and placed both hands on the table. There was barely room to move around.
The Dragon cultivators didn't come to the Dragon God Shrine for a vacation; they were all here to take the exam. With the tens of thousands of exam takers, using such small rooms to fit everyone in was reasonable.
Hao Ren sat in the 'Ren Yin 246' room quietly. He was bored.
The people in the rooms beside him were also cultivators.
All the cultivators were anxiously waiting for the written examination to start.
Outside were some cultivators pacing around because they were too anxious to sit down.
Hao Ren was a bit bored and didn't feel that well in the room, so he put his temporary identity token on and went outside.
There were many young cultivators outside; some were pacing back and forth, while others were talking in small groups.
When the others saw Hao Ren walk over, they were all in awe.
When he walked over, some stopped talking while others opened the path for him.
This showed that Hao Ren had a far higher status.
Hao Ren was looking down and wasn't paying attention. The only difference he noticed was the two little silver dragons on the shoulder area of his robe.
"He's an assisting inspector…"
"He should be really amazing…"
"Careful. Let's not let him hear us."
There were whispers all over the place.
Hao Ren finally realized that the light brown robe with two little silver dragons on it wasn't just for anyone; it was only for assisting inspectors!
No matter which dragon clan one came from, or what role they had previously held at home, or even how strong their nature essence was, they were the same in the Dragon God Shrine.
However, there was one exception; the assisting inspectors!
At the Dragon God Shrine, the assisting inspector was far more superior than any other dragon cultivator.
Although they all took the same exam, assisting inspectors were the most likely to become official inspectors!
During the exam period, if normal Dragon cultivators started fighting with each other outside the arena, it was perfectly fine. However, if anyone dared to clash against an 'assisting inspector', then he or she would be automatically disqualified.
That was the special right of the 'assisting inspector'!
That was why they were more cautious when Hao Ren walked over. They were scared of subconsciously bothering Hao Ren.
"I can't believe I'd bump into you here." A voice from behind suddenly sounded.
Hao Ren turned, and a familiar face walked over from another path. It was Wang Xi.
Wang Xi was from the earth-element dragon clan and had fought Hao Ren once before. Wang Xi was sent to the Martial Arts Dojo outside the mountain valley by Elder Sun.
Hao Ren looked at him. He thought Wang Xi looked taller than before. He saw by Wang Xi's waist was an identity token marked by the words "Ren Mao 297".
"Who is that person?"
"Who is he? Isn't he scared that talking to an assisting inspector will cause him his rights to take the exam?"
"I know him. He's Wang Xi, an earth-elemental dragon from the Wuyi Mountain. I heard he's already reached Xun-level. The clan at Wuyi Mountain has focused all their attention on bringing up only him."
"Xun-level… He must be really powerful. These few years, there haven't been any strong fighters that have reached Qian-level or Kun-level."
"Oh, it's him! I heard he's one of the seed players for this year's official inspector position."
The cultivators around them started talking amongst themselves.
Hao Ren watched as Wang Xi came closer. Hao Ren thought and said, "I didn't think I'd see you here either."
"Assisting inspector," Wang Yi looked at Hao Ren and said in a condescending tone.
On the narrow path, the atmosphere started to become tense.
The ones who were more cowardly stepped back because they were afraid that they would get involved and get disqualified.
"So what, you have a problem with that?" Hao Ren looked at him with hostility.
"I'd beat you during the combat exams tomorrow," Wang Xi stared at Hao Ren and said proudly.
The others were all afraid of Hao Ren, but he wasn't!
He had fought against Hao Ren before, and knew that Hao Ren wasn't that strong!
"If it weren't for the East Ocean Dragon Palace supporting him, there was no way he'd be able to be an assisting inspector!" He thought. Since he had just recently achieved Xun-level, he was extremely confident that he had improved his ability and power!
Although Xun-level is below Kun-level, the person who had reached Xun-level could be considered as a master. If he were able to get a mystic crystal, then reaching Kun-level was possible!
"A little assisting inspector is no match for me!" Wang Xi thought. What he wanted was to reach for the sky, defeating all including the assisting inspectors.
Even with Hao Ren's good manners, he was infuriated by Wang Xi's aloof attitude.
"Dang, dang, dang…" The bell in the center of the black Dragon God Shrine rang loudly.
The platform that had been supporting the Dragon God Shrine gave out a deep red light.
The array formation of the Dragon God Shrine was up and working again, locking everything within it.
It was nine in the evening. The energy sphere was reinitiated, and any cultivators that had not reached the Dragon God Shrine by now were unable to enter. Also, the ones that were in the Dragon God Shrine couldn't fly out anymore!
That meant that those dragon cultivators who were late were automatically disqualified.
"Hua, hua, hua…" Those who were wondering on the streets quickly returned to their rooms.
In two hours, the written exam would begin. From 11 in the evening, the official inspectors who were going to proctor the exam gathered together. That was why during this time, the participants had to sit tight in their own rooms; that was the thing they should do in their best interest.
"Hmph!" Wang Xi looked down at Hao Ren one last time and headed back to his own room.
"So, he's at Xun-level…" Hao Ren thought as he watched Wang Xi slowly disappear into the horizon. He clenched his fist tightly and then slowly relaxed it. He walked toward his 'Ren Yin 246' room.
This should be the right time to see how far he has improved from all his training back at school.
