<h4>Chapter 109: Physical Examination</h4>


    After checking therge information board in the building''s entrance hall, Minos'' group quickly found out where they could go to perform the physical exam. There were many rooms where the test was being carried out. They just needed to follow up on one of these.


    Thus, the four youths soon started looking for one of these ces, where there was a shorter waiting line.


    They proceeded to the fourth floor of the building they were actively looking for until they finally found a line that was not so full. There were just over 20 people in this ce, which shouldn''t be long before the tests by Minos, Kara, and Ford were done.


    Upon entering the room and the line with thepetitors, there was also arge structure in the left corner of the room. This ''object'' was rectangr in shape, about 3 meters high and 2 meters long and wide.


    It had a hollow interior, where there was a space for an adult to stand, while it had a transparent ss door and threerge screens on the sides.


    This was the array responsible for this examination. It had been done by the joint work of three professionals from different areas, namely: a cksmith, a design, and an array master.


    The design had designed the external structure of the ''item,'' while the cksmith had produced thepounds present in this array. The array master, on the other hand, had the job of making this ''thing'' all work, giving its the ability to ascertain the physical characteristics of the users of this array.


    But althoughplicated, this was not an expensive ''item'' for the ming Empire sects. This array could at most be qualified as a grade-2, high-level item.


    So, there were dozens of these in this building since that was no big deal for sects with Spiritual Saints in their ranks!


    There were also five people in the room in addition to the participants. They were two guards from the Cromwell Kingdom who were here to maintain order. Two examiners were here to register candidates able to continue in the tournament and an array master to operating therge physical evaluation array.


    And while Minos watched this ce, an evaluator soon said it aloud. "Next!"


    After hearing this, a young woman at the head of the line went to the examiners. She gave her name and then began to receive guidance from the array master.


    "Youngdy, enter the array and stay still. You will feel a little difort, and you will lose some of your spiritual energy during the process. Still, after a few minutes, you will fully recover."


    "OK." She replied before entering the array and standing there while waiting for the process.


    Suddenly the array started to work when a slight humming sound sounded to those people who were in this room at this very moment.


    Vuup!


    If someone looked closely, at this moment, a drop of blood could be seening out of the neck of the girl who was doing the exam. When she felt this, the young woman felt a slight difort when she frowned firmly.


    Soon after, the screens began to disy the young woman''s results, one after the other.


    - Age: 18 years, 3 months, and 29 days


    - Level: 39


    - Talent: ck


    - Physical: King


    After seeing the result of the young woman, one of the two examiners spoke to her while his face was expressionless. "Okay, ehh, Carmen Row, you are able to participate in the Spiritual Tournament."


    After saying this, the young woman smiled and immediately left this room, heading towards the exit, where her friends who had already taken the test were waiting for her.


    And it didn''t take long, and other young people started taking the same test as before.


    - Age: 17 years, 4 months, and 11 days


    - Level: 36


    - Talent: ck


    - Physical: King


    "Miles Person, it''s fit."


    - Age: 19 years, 0 months, and 7 days


    - Level: 38


    - Talent: ck


    - Physical: King


    "Scott Menzie, he is not fit."


    - Age: 16 years, 11 months, and 27 days


    - Level: 34


    - Talent: ck


    - Physical: Warrior


    "Wynne Mils, you are fit."


    ...


    "Winona Poul, you are fit."


    The test continued until finally, the Minos group''s turn came. He then said while looking at Ford. "You and your sister can go first."


    "Hmm, it''s okay. I''ll go first then." Ford said with a smile and then went on to do his own test.


    And it didn''t take even a minute until his results appeared on one of the array screens.


    - Age: 18 years, 1 month, and 2 days


    - Level: 41


    - Talent: ck


    - Physical: King


    The examiner then finally showed satisfaction in seeing a worthypetitor when he said it. "Very well! Ford Carline is fit!"


    The people who were in line behind Minos, upon hearing this, soon began to actively talk, seeing that the Carline brothers were taking their test in this room.


    "See there. Miss Kara is so beautiful today."


    "Idiot, stop saying that. I am curious to know precisely the physical result of her examination."


    The conversations continued when Kara finally went on to do her own test.


    - Age: 16 years, 7 months, and 5 days


    - Level: 42


    - Talent: Silver


    - Physical: King


    "Oh! Finally, someone with a Silver talent!" The examiner said in a low voice when he looked at the young Kara with satisfaction.


    "Kara Carline, congrattions on your great talent. You are able to participate in the Spiritual Tournament."


    At the same time, themotion in the surroundings increased, even more when people discovered that she had a Silver talent!


    "As expected! That''s why she cultivates so fast..."


    "Ahh! I envy her..."


    Severalments rang out when it was finally Minos'' turn to his test. He then gave his name to one of the examiners. Shortly after, he received instructions from the array master who was there beside the array.


    Vuup!


    A buzzing sounded when a small amount of blood came out of the back of Minos''s neck. After that, the array screen quickly started to shine, and then Minos'' result appeared there.


    - Age: 16 years, 4 months, and 23 days


    - Level: 38


    - Talent: ?????


    - Physical: Warrior


    When Minos'' result appeared on the screen, everyone in the room frowned. Not only thepetitors but also the two evaluators and the array master.


    They had never seen this happen before!


    This array could even evaluate someone with Golden talent!


    ''How strange, why is there no result for his talent?'' The three people who hade from the ming Empire thought about it while trying to figure out why it happened.


    As for Ruth, she was also surprised, but not for the same reason as these people. ''Eh? My master told me that he had a King-grade Physique. How could only a Warrior-grade one appear?''


    She was not shocked by the result of Minos'' talent. After all, if these people knew how fast he was cultivating, no one would be frightened by this result.


    After thinking for a few seconds, the appraiser suddenly said. "Young man, retake the exam."


    "OK..." Minos was saying when suddenly Ruth interrupted and said. "There is no need for that. He has already proven that he is under 19, so he is now able to participate in the Spiritual Tournament."


    Upon hearing someone contradict him, the examinator suddenly frowned as he probed Ruth''s cultivation. ''Oh? Level 46?''


    He then said in an arrogant tone. "Youngdy, even if you are talented, you have no voice here. If I told him to take the test, then this is how it has to be."


    "Oh? Do you think that?" Ruth then removed the ming medallion and tossed it toward the table where the appraiser was standing. She then said. "This gives me as much authority as the elders of the ming Empire sects..."


    She stopped for a second and then said. "Do I have a voice now?"


    Seeing the medallion close to where he was, the appraiser suddenly felt a chill down his spine while his face flushed with shame. ''Damn it! Who is this girl? Is she the daughter of some elder of the sects of the empire?''


    He then blew out a defeated sigh as he tried to hide his shame. "I''m sorry about that, youngdy. Since that is the case, ehh, thepetitor, ehh, Minos is able to participate in thepetition."


    Minos had not given hisst name to participate in the Spiritual Tournament. After all, if he had a good result, the entire North of the Central Continent would receive that news.


    And at this time, the Silva family would know about his immense cultivation speed. And as enemies, they would definitely try to eliminate Minos before he grew any bigger!


    However, only with the first name, even if the news reached the Silva family, no one would believe that this was the son of General Albert. After all, there were more than 2 billion inhabitants in the North of the Central Continent alone. There were undoubtedly others named with the same name of the young Stuart!


    Upon hearing this, Minos and his group soon left this ce, shortly after Ruth took back her ming medallion.


    And while the four young people left the room, everyone in this ce wasmenting on the fact that this young woman from one of the ming Empire sects was here, apanying apetitor.


    "Wow, I never thought that thisdy was from one of the sects!"


    "Hmm, is that boy the bastard son of someone in your sect?"


    "Who knows, maybe he has a great talent and is already receiving the favor of one sect. You didn''t see it, he''s only 16, and he''s already at level 38. If you think about it, it''s not as bad as Miss Kara''s cultivation speed!" A young woman said this in a low voice so that only her friends would hear it.
