Nobilis of War novel Chapter 1154

"Larkin, does this so-called examination mean engaging in combat with another person?" Darren asked curiously.

"Yes." Larkin nodded and said, "Although the Cloud Forest Sect is not a big sect, at least 30 to 40 people visit our sect and want to become a disciple every day. However, not everyone who comes is qualified to join the sect. Thus, they need to be evaluated by the examination. Only three people are admitted each day."

"Larkin, you are at least a primary god at the top level. Why don't you take the examination as well and become a disciple of the sect?" Darren was confused.

Larkin's face suddenly changed. After a moment, he answered, "I do want to be a disciple. However, the Cloud Forest Sect carefully selects the cream of the crop to be their disciples. A loser like me who was born and raised in the Primitive Wilderness will not be accepted by the sect as a disciple."

Darren could tell that becoming a disciple was Larkin's lifelong dream.

"Well, I'm sure you will have a chance in the future." Darren comforted him.

"I hope so. Come on, let's hurry up. Today's examination is about to begin."

"Okay."

Then, Darren, the immortal, and Larkin flew at a much faster speed.

Below them, they could see many wooden houses built in the mountain forest. It was the location of the Cloud Forest Sect.

'How crude, ' Darren thought to himself. He thought that a sect in the Primitive Wilderness was not as prosperous as a small sect on the Lothlann Continent.

"Let's go to the examination valley. Come with me."

Darren and the immortal followed Larkin and flew towards a wide valley.

As soon as they landed on the ground in the valley, it was already crowded with many people. The ground was with a radius of ten kilometers, and lots of arenas were erected in the center of the ground.

"Darren, hurry up. Today's registration is over," Larkin urged.

"I brought someone. Please put him under my name; I am Larkin, a probationary guard. I hope you can still give him a chance to sign up," Larkin rushed over to the registration booth and said hurriedly.

"There are no vacancies. You can come to sign up tomorrow." The elder in charge of the registration didn't even look at him.

"Please. He is a real genius! I'm afraid he'll leave in one day. Please just give him a chance," Larkin asked anxiously.

"Humph! What do you mean 'a real genius'?"

All of a sudden, several people on the side surrounded Larkin.

"Are you saying that the people we have recruited are fake geniuses or trash?"

Those people were all probationary guards like Larkin. Recruiting geniuses to participate in the examination was one of their usual work tasks.

"I-I didn't say that." Larkin trembled slightly.

"Pfft! You are such a coward!" someone cursed.

Larkin frowned and said, "What are you doing? Do you really want to make trouble for me? Fine! I said all the people you recruited are jerks. So what?"

Larkin was ticked off by their insults.

"Wait, did I tell you that Owen Xu, the Third Elder's eldest disciple, has also found a genius. It is none other than his younger brother. Do you mean to tell us that Owen's brother is also a good-for-nothing?" One of the guards mocked Larkin deliberately.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

To his surprise, two people suddenly landed in front of Larkin.

"What did you just say?" It was a man dressed in luxurious clothes. He had a threatening aura, and his body shone as bright as the stars.

Slap!

Larkin lowered his head and did not dare to speak. A young man next to him immediately slapped him in the face.

"Sorry, it was all my fault." Larkin did not dare to complain. Instead, he looked down and humbly apologized.
