Origin Court: Accepting Disciples With A System

"Your Highness, the trials that your father had prepared for you was different from our original trials. Your father passed our trials and ours were much easier than his. In other words, you will undergo a trial that will even transcend the rules of space and time, even reincarnation. We don't know, but it will automatically commence once we, the five divine beasts, consented and arrived at a unanimous decision," the Red Qilin explained.

When Yang Lujia heard him, he was speechless.

Was what his father thinking? He could undergo a test that was much easier while he would undergo one that was even harder than his? What kind of food did his father eat? Did he take the wrong medicine?

"Your Highness should have a high attainment in array formations," the Red Qilin suddenly commented as he stared at Yang Lujia. "Otherwise, Your Highness wouldn't be able to reach the core of the array formation at such a young age. Others like Fu Yishi, if not for that kid, the Holy Light Emperor, the former would not have found the array formation's core."

Cai Hong, who heard the Red Qilin call the Holy Light Emperor a kid, was shocked. Although he had become a peak Saint Emperor, he knew that the Holy Light Emperor had far more combat power than him who had just recently advanced. Given the latter's experience; he could probably defeat Cai Hong without breaking any sweat.

Moreover, it had to be known that to become an emperor of a palace, it was a necessary qualification to be a genius.

"High attainments in the array formations?" Yang Lujia asked, perplexed. "My skills and knowledge when it comes to array formations are indeed high, but I don't think I have reached father's level yet."

"Yes, Your Highness. As part of the array formation ourselves, we can feel that you have high attainments in your skills and knowledge about array formations. Especially when we saw that you have already managed to activate your purple eyes," the Red Qilin explained. "Your purple eyes were even scarier than your father's and we have a premonition that it will soon evolve. With our strength, we can naturally see through your eyes. There was some sort of hidden power behind your purple eyes. It was something engraved in your soul. That power was even more exaggerated than what you inherited from your father. His Highness, your father, did not have that kind of power."

Yang Lujia did not notice it until he was told. However, even after he was told, he couldn't see through his own soul. His soul was strong, but he could not feel anything unusual or peculiar.

"Your Highness, haven't you noticed?" the Black Tortoise suddenly spoke up.

Among the five, he was the oldest. He had far more knowledge than the Red Qilin. It was just he always chose to remain silent. Even the Red Qilin was taken aback when the Black Tortoise opened its mouth after several years.

"What? Did you notice anything, Little Black?" Yang Lujia was also surprised.

"Word of mouth… whatever you say will happen," the Black Tortoise suddenly said. "It's a hereditary skill practiced only by 'those' people. You must be one of them. Your soul…"

Yang Lujia's identity became even more mysterious in the eyes of everybody now. First, he had a very powerful father. Now, he had another power hidden inside him, that he didn't even notice.

That was very strange and peculiar.

Yang Lujia was also shocked. He turned stiff and recalled all the things he did. It was indeed true. Whenever he wanted the other party to kneel, he would be able to make him or her kneel without even lifting his hand.

Seeing that Yang Lujia was silent, everyone, including the divine beasts looked at him with wondering pairs of eyes. They were wondering if Yang Lujia was someone whose talents even surpassed that of the creator of the universe.

Yang Lujia, on the other hand, was thoughtful. He closed his eyes and tried imagining something. He then let himself be immersed in his own soul. After he opened his eyes, he muttered, almost slowly, "Condense."

Soon enough, the ground trembled. In fact, even the core of the array formation, which was very strong, had been shaken to the point that it would certainly break.

Yang Lujia had just tried to condense a large building without doing anything and just used the power of his soul to create such a structure. Seeing how everything was happening, he was immediately stumped.

"How could this be?" the Red Qilin was the one that was most shocked. "What the fuck?!"

When he saw that the core of the array formation, where he was currently staying at, began to crumble, he could not help but cuss out.

"Your Highness! Please stop!" The Red Qilin hurriedly knelt down in front of the dazed Yang Lujia. He was anxious.

He had already treated the core of the array formation as his own home. He could not bear to see it crumble like that. Thus, his heart wavered when he saw that his home was about to break into pieces.

When Yang Lujia saw the tearful Red Qilin, he immediately thought of how he should cancel out the power of his word. He then looked at the Black Tortoise who was the calmest of all.

"Don't look at me. Just use a word or two to cancel out what you did."

"Alright," Yang Lujia said as he muttered a word: "Cease!"

As though time stopped, everything around them became static. The rocks that were about to condense went back to where their original locations were. Everyone felt like their scalps went bald. Yang Lujia was actually that powerful! One word from him and his opponent could die!

"How powerful is His Highness?!" Cai Hong was shocked to the extreme.

Brownie was even more so surprised by the power of Yang Lujia. He could not help but think about changing his ways with how he approached Yang Lujia. One word from this kid could actually make him destroy anything.

When everything went back to their places, the core of the array formation went very silent once more. And at this moment, the voice of the Black Tortoise could be heard.

"Kid, your soul, I can't see through it. Neither can Qi Lin himself. However, I could tell that your soul was able to absorb and store several rules. I wonder how big your capacity to store rules in your soul is. For now, this ability of yours is limited. I'll be looking forward to it in the future."

"Rules?" Yang Lujia asked, but he soon found out that the Black Tortoise had already turned silent and seemed to be sleeping.

"Old black! Do not leave us hanging! Come on! Tell us!" The White Tiger turned aggressive, its voice even sounding like a kid's. So, it was true that he was the youngest among the five beasts, regardless of whether they lived for several years already—since the beginning of times.

When the Red Qilin saw that his sleeping ground, his home, turned back to what it looked like in the past, he heaved a sigh and turned to look at Yang Lujia. "Thank you, Your Highness!"

Yang Lujia shook his head and replied, "No, I should be apologizing to you. If I had not tried to create a building with my imagination and 'that' ability, I would have destroyed your home, even the array formation itself."

The Red Qilin also realized the fact that Yang Lujia was very strong. Stronger than His Highness in the past when the latter managed to subdue them. As others would say, a talented father would not bear a son that would be otherwise a waste. If the father was a dragon, the son could only be a behemoth.

Coughing, the Red Qilin straightened its back and looked at the four divine beasts. He then nodded at them. Even the Black Tortoise opened its eyes and looked at the Red Qilin.

"Alright, Your Highness, I suppose you are already prepared to undergo the tests that His Highness, your father, had readied for you," the Red Qilin. "Let me first explain to you first what kind of tests you will undergo."

"Your Highness, the test that your father has prepared will involve us, the five divine beasts. You will first undergo the test of Little White," the Red Qilin said. "Only Little White knew of his test. Hence, in other words, no one knew of each other or one another's test set by your father.

"You may ask Little White about the test he will give you. Also, I have to remind His Highness, the tests can be said to be rigorous and very rough. I hope Your Highness is ready. I also believe that Your Highness can pass the test with ease."

He then turned to the White Tiger. "Little White! Bring His Highness to your territory! But always remember that if you try anything funny to His Highness, I will surely punish you. Do mind that I am the core of the array formation, I can go to every direction where your residences are."

It was true. While he could go to their territories in the formation out of his own free will, the others were different when they would come to the array formation's core. They would still need the consent of the Red Qilin.

"Little White, take care of His Highness well!"

"Yes, Old Red!" The White Tiger's expression towards the Red Qilin was filled with reverence. It seemed like he quite liked the Red Qilin.

Mainly, if they knew that the White Tiger only liked the Red Qilin because of the latter's large paws, they would certainly vomit blood.
