Chapter 133 The Holy Maiden Gave In (Part Two)

"A hundred thousand pounds of force." Darren estimated the force in an attempt to quantify it. He was

not surprised by the result at all. 'If I try my best, I can easily crush the stone as well, ' he thought.

Soon after, Kevin Ji and Rory Wei recovered from being caught off guard.

"You have exerted your Bloodline Force and ended up with only a hundred thousand pounds of force.

Jack, it seems that I may have overestimated you," Rory Wei walked out and said. Then he spoke

louder, "Mr. Li, please replace the Force Testing Stone with a new one. I would also like to have a try!"

Colin asked somebody to fulfill his request. Soon after, a harder Force Testing Stone was moved to the

square.

"This is how it's supposed to be done!" Rory Wei said.

Then he went closer to the stone, with a great deal of ancient force bursting out of his body.

"Divine Ape Arm!" Rory Wei shouted.

Suddenly, his arm bloated up and transformed into a giant arm which resembled that of an ape. He hit

the stone hard with his palm.

Bang!

With a big thud, his handprint dug deep into the stone's surface, even if the new stone was of top level

and should be able to bear five hundred thousand pounds of force!

"One hundred and thirty thousand pounds of force. The force of your Divine Ape Bloodline is great

indeed," Jack stated calmly. He continued, "However, if I am not wrong, you just exerted four fifths of

your bloodline force in that strike. In other words, it couldn't get much better than what you showed us

just now even if you exert all your force. Considering that, your strength will no longer have the ability to

surprise me. Go back home! You have no chances of winning today!"

'Oops! I made a mistake!' Hearing Jack's words, both Kevin Ji and Rory Wei had the same thought.

They realized that the purpose of Jack's suggestion to do this force test was to know about the levels of

their strengths before the real contest began. He now had a general idea of Rory Wei's strength, just by

observing his performance in the force test.

Darren also realized that fact.

'Although Jack has exerted his bloodline force, nobody could tell how much force he has left. It is pretty

obvious that he must be much stronger than what he showed in the force test if he's confident in

winning the contest, ' he thought. 'These geniuses can exert at least more than a hundred thousand

pounds of force, which exceeds most cultivators at the ninth stage of the Mysterious Realm. If they

combine their bloodline force with their martial arts skills, they will even be much stronger and would

definitely be challenging opponents.'

Meanwhile, Darren secretly observed the three geniuses—Kevin Ji, Rory Wei and Jack—with his

spiritual sense. He discovered that they were merely at the seventh stage of the Mysterious Realm. But

their force already exceeded cultivators at the higher stages. It was because their bloodline force

contributed to their strength significantly. And they hadn't shown them the full potential of their bloodline

force yet!

Soon after, it was Kevin Ji's turn. Now he learned that he must not show his full force. He used only

eighty thousand pounds of force to hit the Force Testing Stone just to get it over with.

'Kevin Ji didn't show us the power of his bloodline force. But why do I have this feeling that he is the

strongest one among them?' Darren thought. He suddenly had this strange feeling.

Seeing these geniuses show off their strengths, Colin was gradually getting more hopeless. And so

was Belle.

"There is no need to push through with the contest today," she said suddenly.

Her voice sounded clear and calm to everyone.

"What?"

Upon hearing those words, everyone focused their eyes on Belle, the Holy Maiden.

"I now choose to marry someone from the Yu Ancient Family. Just please give us the magic spring

water," she continued. Belle was miserable but she had no other choice. It was meaningless to go on

with the test because she knew none of the Holy Land disciples could exceed the geniuses from the

Ancient Families at all. Even the boy with the strange mask who had brought her great surprises would

not be able to win.

She would rather save them all the trouble and just pick a clan to marry into, instead of wasting

everyone's time and getting the same result with the risk of injuring her people.

She didn't want them to struggle for an inevitable result. Belle finally gave in and sacrificed herself.

"Belle, are you being serious?" Suddenly came a voice.

It was Holy Lord Diana, who abruptly appeared beside Belle. She arrived so quickly that nobody saw

which direction she came from.

"Holy Lord, thank you for your effort in trying to help me. I'm truly grateful. But I don't want to waste any

more time. I want to save my master as soon as possible. I'm sorry if I let you down," Belle replied with

tears. She didn't have any other choice.

The contest was nothing more than a bet. If the Holy Land could win, she wouldn't need to force herself

to marry anybody. Moreover, the three Ancient Families would present the magic spring water she

needed to save her master. However, they all knew that the Holy Land was doomed to fail. It was never

a fair bet to begin with.

"Ha-ha. Great. We will return to do some preparations very soon. We would be here tomorrow to fetch

the bride," the chief of the Yu Ancient Family said. He grinned from ear to ear. He was glad that Belle

finally made her choice after such a long time.

"You seriously want to get married without my permission?"

Just then, Darren, the boy with a mask, turned around and asked suddenly. His sullen voice could be

heard clearly by everyone on the square. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
