Chapter 210: Blown Up!

Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

In the Supervising Hall.

The supervising elder looked at Su Mo and said mockingly, “How can it be blown up? You can try!”

The supervising elder did not think that Su Mo could break the stele. After all, it had been used for 10 years and was still intact. It could not be blown up!

“In that case, I’ll give it my best shot. Watch carefully, elder!”

Su Mo nodded and said with a smile.

The supervising elder looked a bit impatient. He hastened Su Mo and said, “Do it fast. If you’re unable to light up 20 crystals, you’ll fail the examination and won’t become an Inner Disciple!”

He looked mockingly at Su Mo and did not want Su Mo to enter the inner gate.

Su Mo had killed many disciples of the Sky Alliance and was an enemy of the Sky Alliance. As an Inner Elder, he could not kill a disciple without a valid reason, but he could use other means to disqualify Su Mo from entering the inner gate.

This was one of the ways he could contribute to the Sky Alliance.

Su Mo stood before the stele and looked at the 25 purple crystals. His mouth curled into a smile.

“Trying to make things difficult for me?”

“Do you think you can stop me with 20 crystals? Far from it!”

Su Mo released a golden light and the seven Spiritual Spirals in his body churned crazily. A vast amount of genuine Qi rushed into his glimmering golden fists.

In the next instant, Su Mo threw out a punch. With his strong human body and the seven Spiritual Spirals working together, the force was overbearing.

There was an explosion. Su Mo’s punch was looked like a small golden sun as it struck with the force of one. It hit the stele.

Boom!

The explosion was so great that the shock waves traveled from the stele to the entire hall.

Boom!

All the 25 crystals lit up.

However, in the next instant, they exploded.

Pom!

The stele broke into pieces and fell down to the ground.

The eyes of the supervising elder nearly popped out!

Ling Muchen and the other disciple stared in disbelief!

“Just one punch and the stele blew up?”

“How can this be possible?”

Su Mo raised his brow. He knew that if he exerted his full force, all 25 crystals would light up!

He had given it his all, but he had not expected himself to blow up the stele.

“Elder, given this result, have I passed the test?”

Su Mo turned to look at the supervising elder and asked with a smile.

Since the stele had been blown up, this was proof that his attack was beyond what the stele could bear. The result was obvious.

“Su Mo, you...!”

The supervising elder recollected himself and shouted, “How dare you deliberately destroy the stele!”

The supervising elder was both angry and worried. He had not expected things to turn out this way.

He had only wanted to make it difficult for Su Mo to pass the examination by raising the number of crystals from 10 to 20.

However, Su Mo’s attack turned out to be so powerful that even the stele could not bear it and had been blown up!

The supervising elder felt the pain of losing the stele, which had cost him 20,000 Lower Spiritual Stones.

The 20,000 Lower Spiritual Stones had now been turned to powder by Su Mo!

How could he not feel a terrible heartache!

If Su Mo was not a disciple of Elder Wei, he would have killed him on the spot!

“Elder, did you not ask me to give it my best shot?”

Su Mo teased.

“You...!”

The supervising elder was dumbfounded.

He had indeed asked Su Mo to give it his all. Now that the stele had been blown up, he could not find fault with Su Mo.

“Elder, have I passed the examination?”

Su Mo asked again.

The supervising elder looked grave and said coldly, “The stele has been blown up so there’s no concrete result. You fail the examination!”

Upon hearing this, Su Mo’s face sank. “Did he just say there’s no result?”

“All the 25 crystals have been lit up and the stele has been blown up. Are these not results?”

“Elder, all of us saw the 25 crystals being lit up. Did you not see them?”

“Elder, all of us saw the 25 crystals being lit up. Did you not see them?” Su Mo asked coldly.

“I didn’t...of course I saw them, but the crystals only lit up for a while. This does not count,”

The supervising elder said flatly.

He had wanted to say that he didn’t see it, however, it would not be justifiable and was obviously a lie. He had thus quickly changed his statement.

“Doesn’t count?”

Su Mo looked pale. Even at this moment, the supervising elder was still arguing with a straight face. How shameless!

“Let me ask you, elder. Can an ordinary martial artist at Lv 7 Spiritual Martial Realm blow up this stele?”

“Let me ask you, elder. Can an ordinary martial artist at Lv 7 Spiritual Martial Realm blow up this stele?” Su Mo asked.

The supervising elder shook his head and said, “Of course not. If he can do it, then we wouldn’t be using this stele for the test!”

The supervising elder could not argue about it as this was a rhetorical question.

“Since ordinary martial artists at Lv 7 Spiritual Martial Realm are unable to blow up the stele but I have done it, is this not proof of my strength? My strength has surpassed most of my peers. Am I not considered to have passed the test?”

Su Mo sneered and said.

“This...!”

The supervising elder was dumbfounded. His expressions kept changing but he insisted and said, “The result is based on the number of crystals being lit up. You’ve blown up the stele, so naturally, I can’t categorize this. Since I can’t categorize this, you’ve failed the test.”

The supervising elder was being unreasonable and this caused Su Mo to be infuriated.

“Fine! Why don’t you take out another stele and let me retake the test?”

Su Mo suppressed his anger and said coldly.

Having heard that, the supervising elder was enraged and shouted, “Do you think this type of stele is common! You think you can have it anytime? This stele costs 20,000 Lower Spiritual Stones. It’s very precious. We don’t have any extra on the island!”

“What should we do then? You’ve said that I didn’t pass the test and I can’t retake it!”

Su Mo’s face darkened and he raised his voice.

“Get out of here! Wait until we get another stele then you can retake the test!”

The supervising elder waved his hand.

“Wait?”

Su Mo was completely enraged. He could no longer hold his anger. He did not know how long he would have to wait!

Moreover, even if he retook the test, the supervising elder would still make things difficult for him!

“Elder, as an elder of the Sect who is in charge of the Inner Examination, you’ve disregarded the rules. You have failed to be impartial and have made things difficult for me. Do you think you can take things into your hands?”

Su Mo shouted and looked sharply at him.

“How dare you!”

The supervising elder was furious. He stood up and a terrifying aura shot up from his body. The aura rumbled and towered over Su Mo.

The supervising elder was filled with immense killing intent. As an Inner Elder, no disciple had ever spoken to him in such a manner, and had been so disrespectful toward him!
