986: Chapter 979: Is It Really Useless?
As Shen Mingxuan and Lin Xinyi, along with three other young people, approached Shen Jingwu and Lin Kangsheng, Shen Jingwu spoke, “This young brother here is named Ye Chenfeng.
He is visiting our Obliterate Heavenly Alliance this time; everyone, get to know each other.”
While Shen Mingxuan and the others sized up Ye Chenfeng, Chenfeng likewise scrutinized them.
Finally, Chenfeng’s gaze fell on Lin Xinyi.
Her chest was voluptuously high, and her body’s contours were exceptionally perfect.
Along with her fair face, which bore an innate aloof beauty, this caused Chenfeng to linger his eyes on Lin Xinyi for an additional two seconds.
Lin Xinyi seemed to feel Chenfeng’s gaze, which made her eyebrows furrow involuntarily, while Chenfeng simply shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly.
He certainly wasn’t the type of man who would be stopped in his tracks by a beautiful woman.
After all, the women around him were almost all devastatingly beautiful.
Xu Ziqi, who had a sharp, monkey-like face, had been observing Lin Xinyi, his gaze laced with a primitive yearning.
However, he hid this desire very well.
So, when Lin Xinyi slightly frowned, Xu Ziqi also took notice of Chenfeng, who was looking at Lin Xinyi.
This caused Xu Ziqi’s expression to gradually cool and fill with disdain.
He could sense that Chenfeng’s strength was also at the Initial Stage Soul Force level, but Xu Ziqi was confident that he was invincible amongst his peers at the same level.
The five of them were recognized geniuses within the Obliterate Heavenly Alliance.
Xu Ziqi’s father was a high-ranking member of the Obliterate Heavenly Alliance, with strength that had reached the Initial Stage Saint Level Soul Force.
Xu Ziqi didn’t fear Shen Jingwu and Lin Kangsheng like the other members did, and they had always treated him like a nephew, which emboldened Ziqi to ask, “Uncle Shen, Uncle Lin, did you leave the Obliterate Heavenly Alliance just to fetch this kid?
I don’t see anything special about him.
He just possesses initial stage sect level Soul Force, which surely doesn’t justify a personal visit from you both.”
Hearing this, Ye Chenfeng’s facial expression remained unchanged.
He had seen his fair share of such thoughtless flies before and had no interest in dealing with them.
However, Shen Jingwu and Lin Kangsheng furrowed their brows.
Their personal visit to see Ye Chenfeng wasn’t because of his strength, but because Chenfeng’s soul, like theirs, didn’t belong to this era.
Naturally, Jingwu and Kangsheng wouldn’t bother explaining so much to Ziqi, with Jingwu saying, “Alright, Ziqi, this young brother is a guest of our Obliterate Heavenly Alliance.
Mind your manners when you speak.
We’re here to help the young brother test his potential.”
Just then, a middle-aged man around forty-three or forty-four years old walked from inside the combat arena to the entrance and said to Shen Jingwu and Lin Kangsheng, “Alliance Hierarch, Vice Alliance Hierarch.”
The man had a huge, fearsome scar on his left cheek, sprawling across his face like a centipede.
Among the three Saint Level Soul Force powerhouses within the Obliterate Heavenly Alliance, he was one of them.
His strength was at the Middle Stage of the Saint Level Soul Force, and his name was Fang Zhihua.
Whenever there was sparring among the members in the Obliterate Heavenly Alliance’s combat arena, a Saint Level powerhouse would always be present to oversee.
If someone unleashed a deadly move during the spar, then the overseeing Saint Level powerhouse would intervene immediately.
Shen Jingwu nodded at Fang Zhihua and said, “Zhihua, today Kangsheng and I brought this young brother here to test his potential.
Please set it up for us immediately.”
“Understood, Alliance Hierarch.” Hearing the purpose of Jingwu’s visit, Fang Zhihua immediately turned to make the arrangements.
“Young brother, let’s head inside; I can’t wait to see your potential,” Shen Jingwu said with a smile.
So, Ye Chenfeng followed Shen Jingwu and Lin Kangsheng into the combat arena.
The news of Chenfeng being there to test his potential quickly swept through the entire arena, which distracted the Obliterate Heavenly Alliance members from their sparring, sparking a fresh wave of discussion.
“So the Alliance Hierarch and the Vice Alliance Hierarch brought this kid here to test his potential!”
“This kid seems to have Initial Stage Sect Level strength, and he’s so young.
He must be quite talented too, otherwise, why would the Alliance Hierarch and Vice Alliance Hierarch bring him here to test his potential?”
“Let’s all stop sparring for now!
Let’s go see what this kid’s potential is.
Could he possibly reach Divine Level Soul Force in the future?
After all, he was personally brought back by the Alliance Hierarch and Vice Alliance Hierarch.”
…
Speaking of which, everyone in the combat arena walked towards the very back of the space, all wanting to witness Ye Chenfeng’s potential value.
In a corner at the back of the combat arena, there was a space the size of a person separated by glass.
Green lights shimmered on the floor of this space, and the glass was labeled from “First Level Soul Force” up to “Divine Level Soul Force.” This glass-enclosed small space was the potential testing device.
Fang Zhihua, a middle-stage Saint Level powerhouse of the Obliterate Heavenly Alliance, had connected all sorts of power sources and equipment.
After everything was ready, he spoke to Shen Jingwu and Lin Kangsheng, “Alliance Hierarch, Vice Alliance Hierarch, the potential testing device is ready.”
Shen Jingwu nodded, then said to Ye Chenfeng, “Young man, you just need to stand relaxed in this glass-enclosed space, and then I will be able to measure your potential value.”
Ye Chenfeng was quite curious about the potential testing device and walked into the space without objection.
As Ye Chenfeng entered, Fang Zhihua pressed a black button on the nearby wall.
Immediately, a mechanized voice sounded from a speaker on the device: “Potential testing begins!
Potential testing begins!
Tester, please relax your body!
Tester, please relax your body.”
Then, streams of different colored lights swept over Ye Chenfeng’s body within the glass partition.
About three minutes later, the mechanized voice sounded again: “Potential testing complete!
Potential testing complete!
Now announcing the results!
Now announcing the results.”
The people present, including Shen Jingwu and others, focused their gazes on the glass at the first instance.
They saw a red line slowly rise from the bottom of the glass, passing labels for “First Level Soul Force,” “Second Level Soul Force,” and finally, it stopped firmly at the position marked “Tenth Level Soul Force” without moving again.
The mechanized voice from the speaker announced, “The tester’s potential value is poor, Tenth Level Soul Force is the highest point he will be able to reach.”
After hearing the results, Shen Jingwu and Lin Kangsheng showed undisguised disappointment on their faces.
They had originally thought that Ye Chenfeng, an initial Soul Force warrior, might be different.
They did not doubt the potential testing device, a high-precision instrument they had developed themselves.
They were almost certain that Ye Chenfeng must have reached the initial stage of the Sect Level by luck, and perhaps he would be stuck at the initial stage of the Sect Level Soul Force for his lifetime.
Standing behind Shen Jingwu and Lin Kangsheng was Xu Ziqi.
Upon hearing the results, he burst into loud laughter, “Hahaha, I think this kid only broke through to the initial stage of Sect Level Soul Force by sheer fluke.
The potential testing device has never made a mistake, so I think this kid will never make any progress in strength in the future.
He’s just a waste.”
The rest of the people at the scene, after hearing the test results and Xu Ziqi’s disdainful remarks, showed mocking expressions on their faces and began whispering among themselves.
“So this kid is just a waste?
Why would the Alliance Hierarch and Vice Alliance Hierarch bring someone like this back?”
“Even though this kid has now attained initial Sect Level strength, I bet that’s as good as he’ll get for a lifetime.
Our future strength will definitely surpass his.”
…
Unaffected by the comments, Ye Chenfeng walked out of the potential testing device.
The result it displayed was based on the limitations of Ye Chenfeng’s strength at the time, and it did not reveal his true potential.
After all, Ye Chenfeng was an initial Soul Force warrior, and he had broken through these limits thanks to the Hundred-Year Elixir.
It was not surprising that the device could make a mistake.
Ye Chenfeng looked at Xu Ziqi, who had been the first to mock him.
He didn’t have a good impression of this snipe-nosed fellow and responded sarcastically, “You call me a waste?
I don’t think you’re qualified to say that.
If I’m a waste, then you’re not even worth a fart.”
