Primordial Cultivator

The disciples were in an uproar when they heard Yang Wei's words.

"This damn bastard- I'm going to kill him." One of the disciples said as he rolled his sleeve up and prepared to attack Yang Wei.

However, his friend quickly pulled him back and muttered, "Are you stupid? Elder Jing is looking right at us."

The disciple regained his composure and realized he had almost fallen into the trap set by Yang Wei.

"Tch, you're lucky your friend has a brain cell unlike you- a hotheaded fool that is impulsive." Yang Wei sneered as he turned around and walked away from them.

'This Yang Wei- his behavior has really changed from the quiet and obedient type.' Elder Jing laughed inwardly as she glanced at the disciple who got dissed by Yang Wei.

The disciple had veins popping off his forehead and his tightly clenched fist seemed to be exploding at any moment.

"Attention everyone," Elder Jing ignored the angry disciples as she stood in the center, exuding a profound aura.

Everyone stopped their mini-conversation as they all stood still and waited for Elder Jing to speak.

"I'm sure all of you are here to get rid of that outer disciple outfit and to truly become one of our sect disciples." Elder Jing then said.

"Yes, Elder Jing."

The entire disciples replied in unison and Elder Jing nodded her head.

She then turned around to look at another elder who quickly understood her intention.

The elder stepped forward and pointed at the door behind them.

"As you all know, becoming an inner disciple isn't enough and one of the most basic requirements is a cultivator's willpower. Hence, behind the door is a Formation of Willpower and you must last for a minimum amount of time."

"Form a line as only 10 people would be allowed inside and remember carefully- there is only one chance."

Sometime later, all the disciples lined up as they waited for their turn.

When the elder finished counting the number of outer disciples trying to take this test, he glanced at Elder Jing.

"You can send people in now." Elder Jing said in a cold tone.

Once Elder Jing gave permission to begin the test, 10 people proceeded to walk inside the room.

However, within a few moments, the elder in charge of supervising shook his head as he reported back to Elder Jing.

"Elder Jing, those 10 disciples fainted and none were able to meet our requirements." The elder said as he opened the door.

Inside the room, the 10 disciples had blood leaking out of their ears and nose with some even clutching onto their heads tightly with their hands.

It was a horrifying scene and the next in line were frightened for a bit.

"It hasn't even been a minute yet."

"They just went in and eliminated straight away."

The disciples were trembling as they wondered how they could pass the Formation of Willpower when the first batch had failed miserably.

"Next." Elder Jing said coldly when she realized the next batch wasn't going toward the room.

"If you are getting cold feet from such a sight already then get the hell out of here. Don't waste my time." She added.

The next batch swallowed nervously as they quickly walked inside the room.

As soon as everyone went inside, the elder supervising closed the door and activated the formation.

Alas, just like the first batch, it hasn't even been a minute yet before the elder opened the door again and saw the same outcome.

The test began for another few hours before someone finally managed to handle the willpower test.

"Finally someone decent at least." The elder muttered as he handed a token to the disciple that passed the test.

The disciple had a blissful expression as he held the token in his hand. "Heh, with my talent, it's only obvious that the Formation of Willpower is a walk in the park."

However, he soon regretted his gloating words as Elder Jing halted his movement with her cultivation technique.

"Elder Kun, I suggest you send him back inside the formation and if he lasts for 10 minutes then he shall directly become our inner disciple." Elder Jing then said to the elder.

Elder Kun was dumbfounded for a moment before nodding his head. "Understood, Elder Jing."

Afterward, Elder Kun shouted at the disciple who tried to run away in fear. "You- get back inside the formation otherwise, we will directly disqualify you."

The disciple trembled as he stuttered, "B-But I passed the willpower and should have been allowed to go to the next stage."

"Did I ask you a question?" Elder Kun snorted as he flicked his hand.

A gush of spiritual qi soon impacted the disciple as he was thrown back inside the room.

Elder Kun then activated the formation.

"Elder Kun, show the projection as well." Elder Jing suddenly said as she continued, "I want to see how this formation is a walk in the park for him."

Elder Kun nodded his head.

Sometime later, a projection screen was displayed for everyone to see and the disciple sitting inside the room was sweating profusely.

5 minutes passed and the disciple started leaking blood from his body.

"Elder Jing, should we stop the formation now?" Elder Kun asked nervously as he could tell the disciple would soon die in the illusion created by the formation.

The Formation of Willpower was different for everyone as it uses their heart demon to see if they will run away from their fear.

It was a gruesome test and not many are able to even last more than a few minutes because heart demon was not a simple thing to avoid.

"Not yet, wait a little bit longer." Elder Jing shook her head and turned around to face the other disciples waiting in line.

"Remember, just passing our minimum requirement doesn't mean you're any good. Always be humble in your achievement and not brag about it."

Everyone else turned pale and nodded their heads when they saw the disciple in the room begin coughing up blood.
