“T-that’s impossible! How on earth did you do that?” Gianna stuttered, utterly shocked. She didn’t have


    time to process everything since it happened too quickly.


    “Are you going to use me of cheating again?” Dustin retorted.


    “I-” Gianna didn’t know what to say.


    Earlier, Dustin might have cheated by using internal energy. But, using internal energy was allowed in


    the agility test. Anyone who safely got through the row of stilts naturally passed. There was no way she


    could use him of cheating anymore. Still, she couldn’t ept it. “Hmph! So what if he’s fast? He


    only passed because he used underhanded tricks!” Desmond grumbled dismissively. “The internal


    energy test is up next. I doubt you’ll pass!”


    “He’s right! Internal energy determines a martial artist’s strength. No matter how fast you are, you’re


    useless if your internal energy is weak!” Gianna echoed stubbornly.


    “Hey, kid! I dare you topete with Desmond and see who has stronger internal energy!” The winner


    gets to call the shots!” Devon taunted.


    They were all betting on Desmond now. After all, as a strong Divine-level martial artist, he was the


    strongest among them. They were sure that he would win when it came to internal energy.


    “I guess I’ll entertain you guys “Dustin smiled. If it was an internal energy test, he might as well enjoy


    himself.

    “Fine! Follow me.” Demond shouted and led everyone to the location of the third test.


    The setup was simple. A stone tform in the center held a huge beautiful, pure white crystal ball.


    “How do we use this, sir?” Gianna asked after studying the crystal ball.


    “The rules are simple. ce your hand on the crystal ball and channel your internal energy into it. The


    crystal’s color will gradually change.


    “The passing color is ck. Silver color means distinction. Those who turn golden will advance to the


    next level,” the alliance staff exined.


    “Alright! I’ll give it a shot!” Gianna eximed excitedly.


    She put one hand on the crystal ball and channeled her internal energy. Soon, the milky crystal began


    to turn ck.


    However, the ball stopped changing colors when it was only half ck. Gianna had nearly used up her


    internal energy, and sweat collected on her forehead.


    No matter how much she tried, the crystal ball refused to turn ckpletely. In other words, she


    didn’t have enough internal energy to pass the test.


    “Let me try!” Others tried their luck after her.


    However, most were also unable to turn the crystal ball ck. Only a few talented individuals managed


    to turn the ball ck and some into silver,


    “You’re up, Desmond “-Everyone’s attention was now on Desmond. He was the only one who could


    restore Boulderthorn to its former glory.


    “Move out of my way!” Desmond gestured for them to move aside and went forward.


    He ced his hand on the ball. Immediately, Divine Aura began flowing into the crystal ball.


    There was a hum as the ball began to vibrate, and the crystal quickly turned ck before turning silver.


    After the crystal ball turned fully silver, streaks of gold began appearing.


    The Steeljaws Fellowship disciples were excited at the sight, and their eyes twinkled eagerly. Desmond


    was already incredible since he could turn the crystal ball silver. But if he managed to turn it golden,


    he’d outshine everyone else and could advance to the next level!
