The adventurers registering for the first time had to fill in their personal details. At the same time, they needed to pass a test. This was to ensure that they at least had the ability to fight with a one force point first-rank magical beast.
After that, the adventurers would have to complete a certain number and level of missions based on their level.
Under the staff's guidance, Mo Xiaobai quickly filled up his personal details.
Bu Bai smiled, and said, "Alright, now you just have to beat a one force point first-rank magical beast. Oh right, would you like to use your own weapons and items or the public ones?"
As he spoke, he pointed to the weapons rack at the side.
On the weapons rack, there were all kinds of weapons. There were daggers, spears, swords, halberds, and even simple suits of armor.
However, the suits of armor looked torn and tattered. They looked as though they would break with just a little tear.
Mo Xiaobai was stunned for a moment. He remembered that he didn't bring any items along with him.
He smiled, and said, "I'll use the weapons here."
Bu Bai raised his eyebrows when he saw how confident Mo Xiaobai was.
"Don't you want to borrow your father's items?"
Mo Xiaobai had just achieved his breakthrough, so Bu Bai felt that he was a little overly confident.
Mo You smiled and opened his mouth. "Let him do what he wants."
Bu Bai was stunned when Mo You said this. After a second, he smiled and opened his mouth. "Captain Mo, it looks like you're very confident in Xiaobai."
Mo You smiled. "He'll be fine."
"Alright. You can choose your weapon."
Mo Xiaobai came in front of the weapons rack, and took a long sword. He swung it casually a few times.
He had a breakthrough in his cultivation, and awakened the power of the Giants. There was a huge increase in his strength. Thus, the sword he used when he went to graystone hill the first time felt a little light now.
He changed to a sword that had a thicker spine and was longer. When he swung it around, he noticed that it was a little light, but he could still use it.
He smiled, and said, "I'll use this sword."
Bu Bai asked, "What about your armor?"
"No need."
Bu Bai nodded. He pointed at the stairs. "You can go down."
The other Force Warriors who were lining up for the registration had weird expressions on their faces when they saw that Mo Xiaobai went down with just a sword.
Some were surprised. Others had a look of contempt. Some even sneered.
This little brat was so arrogant.
Arrogance and overconfidence would bring an adventurer to the brink of death.
To them, Mo Xiaobai was just a useless and arrogant child with a slightly good background who didn't know where he stood.
However, because of Bu Bai and Mo You, they didn't dare to mock him loudly.
In the arena, the stern-looking night spirit lady was slightly stunned when she saw Mo Xiaobai's young face.
But, when she noticed that he was only carrying a huge sword, she couldn't help but frown. She asked in a light tone, "Are you sure you're taking the test like this?"
Mo Xiaobai smiled and nodded. "Yes."
The night spirit lady looked at Mo Xiaobai again and nodded. "You can start, then."
As she spoke, she pressed the button on the wall.
There was a locked steel door opposite Mo Xiaobai after he came down the stairs.
The steel door was lifted slowly. A dark passageway was revealed. A low and ruthless roar came from the darkness.
"Roar! Roar, roar!"
Very soon, the steel door rose completely. A huge graystone wild boar charged out.
Mo Xiaobai could see faint gray lines of lights surrounding the graystone wild boar.
The graystone wild boar rushed out of the passageway. The instant it looked at Mo Xiaobai, killing intent and viciousness flashed past its gaze.
It lowered its head. It's two long tusks that were half a meter long were glowing with white light. It stepped on the ground and turned into a lingering gray shadow as it dashed at Mo Xiaobai.
Thud, thud, thud!
The graystone wild boar's footsteps echoed in the arena. Mo Xiaobai looked at the graystone wild boar calmly as it closed in on him.
When the graystone wild boar was near him, he tapped the ground with his feet, and moved sideways by a meter. Then, he held his sword tightly and moved his wrist. His arm moved too.
The huge sword slashed in the air and formed a white glow. At the same time, it cut the wild boar's throat.
Pfft!
The graystone wild boar was still dashing forward, but fresh blood spurted out of its neck like a fountain along the way. Its head flew off because of the blood, and landed on the ground a few meters away. The head rolled a few times before it stopped.
Dong!
The graystone wild boar's body staggered for a few meters before falling on the ground heavily with a dull thud.
The entire room turned quiet.
The night spirit lady at the side, Bu Bai and Mo You standing beside the arena, the Force Warriors that were waiting to get registered, and the staff, everyone was staring at the headless corpse of the graystone wild boar with their eyes wide open. They were flabbergasted.
After a moment of silence, Bu Bai regained his senses. The corners of his lips twitched as he looked at Mo Xiaobai with astonishment in his eyes.
"Old Mo, are you telling me that your son just became a Force Warrior?!"
He just became a Force Warrior, and he's already so powerful?!
Are you kidding me?
Mo You regained his senses too.
His face was twitching as he replied, "He really just achieved his breakthrough.'
He was dumbfounded too.
Although he knew that Mo Xiaobai used a flawless grade refined force technique for his breakthrough, and he awakened the power of the Giants, his ability was a little impressive.
But how was he able to become so impressive?
As expected of my son!
He worked hard to control his smile so that he wouldn't seem too proud.
At the side, the Force Warriors felt their hair standing.
They looked at Mo Xiaobai. Their bodies shuddered, and they shrunk their necks.
In the arena, the night spirit lady woke up from her daze too.
She looked at Mo Xiaobai with wide eyes. Then, a smile appeared on her stern face. "You passed the test. Congratulations."
Mo Xiaobai nodded and smiled. "Thank you, elder sister."
The night spirit lady's smile got brighter.
Sigh, this child…
He was handsome and powerful. He was talented too, but he was too young.
After he climbed up the stairs, Mo Xiaobai came to Bu Bai's side, and gave a bitter smile as he said, "Director Bu, I'm really sorry. I used too much force. I think I broke the sword."
Bu Bai looked at the cracks on the sword in Mo Xiaobai's hand. His pupils constricted.
Even this huge sword cracked. His strength…
This was actually a fellow who'd just achieved his breakthrough?!
He gave a bright smile and patted Mo Xiaobai's shoulder. He said, "It's just a steel sword. It's alright. During the test, we need to change our weapons frequently."
Mo Xiaobai heaved a sigh of relief as he didn't need to be held responsible for the broken sword.
Bu Bai looked at Mo You, and said, "Old Mo, your son is a genius. It looks like he can enter one of the top 50 institutions."
Mo You smiled happily. "Hahaha, I hope so. Thanks for your good wishes."
"Xiaobai, you have passed the test. You are a qualified black steel adventurer now. Go and take your badge."
Mo Xiaobai's eyes lit up. He walked towards the staff.
The Force Warriors at the side cleared the path for him. There was respect in their eyes.
They were unable to forget how Mo Xiaobai killed the graystone wild boar with a single slash of his sword.
"This is your badge."
The person at the counter gave a black steel badge to Mo Xiaobai with both hands.
"Thank you."
Mo Xiaobai took over the badge excitedly.
The badge was entirely black. There was a door carved in the middle, and swords, bows, staffs, and many other weapons were carved at the side.
This door represented the hollow realm. A huge portion of an adventurer's activities was in the hollow realm.
One of the reasons why the Cerulean Empire was able to prosper was because of the various force technique crystals, as well as all kinds of treasures and knowledge, the adventurers found in the hollow realm.
Mo You smiled as he said, "Let's go. I will buy some weapons for you to celebrate you becoming a black steel adventurer."
