Chapter 715: Chapter 479: Strength Test
"But no matter what, since Charles brought you here, we still need to go through the process again. First, fill in your basic information here, and then I’ll take you to the gym to test your combat ability," Linda Lilith said as she handed over the form.
Zachary took the form from Linda Lilith and looked at the information that needed to be filled in, as if he were back to filling out entry forms when he first graduated and was job-hunting.
The first time Zachary filled out this form, he took each item very seriously, but as he changed jobs over time, the way he filled out entry forms became more and more casual.
Zachary only filled in his name and place of origin, directly ignoring the other detailed information.
Indeed, anyone who has worked in HR knows that the entry forms filled out by new applicants aren’t very useful, because no matter how impressive the resume might seem, HR will eventually have to fill it out again.
However, when Linda Lilith saw Zachary fill in "Path Entry Realm" in the Cultivation Level column, her face immediately showed a look of surprise.
These days, more and more people are starting to cultivate. Aside from the naturally gifted, some people are rapidly improving their Cultivation Levels through various means.
With the increasing concentration of Spirit Energy in the air, the average Cultivation Level of survivors is constantly being raised. What used to be dominating Martial Artists at the Energy Refining Realm have now become commonplace.
However, the number of Martial Artists with the Cultivation Level of the Path Entry Realm is still not many. The threshold for ordinary people to reach the Body Tempering Realm was once insurmountable, but as the concentration of Spirit Energy continued to rise, the height of this threshold has been lowered to the point where anyone can easily cross it.
But the gap between the Energy Refining Realm and the Path Entry Realm is still like a vast chasm. Perhaps when the concentration of Spirit Energy increases to a certain level, this chasm will be filled, but at this time, the majority of people are still blocked by this chasm, and not many can cross it.
Without going too far, just looking at the third-constructed Platform over the water where Linda Lilith is located, although it has fewer Martial Artists in the Energy Refining Realm compared to the first two, it still has hundreds of Martial Artists at that level.
Yet, there are only two Martial Artists with the Cultivation Level of the Path Entry Realm. Even if the first two Platforms are combined, the number of Path Entry Realm Martial Artists has not broken into double digits, which shows how rare they are.
When Linda Lilith saw the "Path Entry Realm" filled in the Cultivation Level column by Zachary, although she had not confirmed whether the information was correct, she was very clear that the subsequent reception work had nothing to do with her anymore.
Just as she was about to report Zachary’s Cultivation Level, the door to the reception room opened again, and Charles walked in with a very young and handsome guy.
When she saw Charles returning, Linda Lilith was originally going to tease him a bit, but when she saw the person behind him, her face immediately turned respectful, "Chester, what brings you here?"
Hearing Linda Lilith ask this, Chester chuckled in response, "What, am I not allowed to come here, or are you saying you don’t welcome me?"
"Look at what you’re saying, I couldn’t be happier, how could I not welcome you? Besides, on the entire Platform, you can go wherever you want, who would dare to stop you?"
"Go wherever I want, no one dares to stop me... You’re joking with me when you say that. If someone didn’t know any better, they’d think I’m some kind of bandit from your words."
"If you’re a bandit, then I’m just a little minion patrolling the mountains for you," Linda Lilith said playfully.
Upon hearing Linda Lilith say this, a smile immediately appeared on Chester’s face, and then he teased her with a laugh, "Only you know how to make me happy. Okay, enough chit-chat. This young friend must be Dong Tianyu, indeed a person of remarkable appearance."
He casually took the registration form that Linda Lilith had passed, which Zachary had just filled out, and when he saw that the Cultivation Level column was filled with "Path Entry Realm", Chester’s face did not reveal any surprise.
Charles had already reported to him when he sought him out that Zachary had made it through the Bloody Mysterious Realm and had transformed the material of his Companion Spiritual Treasure into Jade. Seeing a higher Cultivation Level seemed quite normal to him.
After all, if Zachary had the Cultivation Level of an ordinary person and had emerged as the final survivor of the Bloody Mysterious Realm, that would have been quite abnormal.
However, although he internally believed that Zachary hadn’t exaggerated, the necessary procedures still had to be followed.
Zachary responded to Chester’s praise with only a modest smile. Although both Charles and Linda Lilith had shown respectful attitudes, they had not revealed the man’s exact status and position, so Zachary decided to stay calm and see what arrangements the other party would make next.
After Chester entered the room, although he did not initiate a conversation with Zachary right away, he had been observing Zachary’s demeanor since entering, and knowing that Zachary maintained an unflappable demeanor indicated that he had confidence.
Seeing Chester show no surprise at Zachary’s declared Cultivation Level, Linda Lilith, without waiting for Chester to speak, directly addressed Zachary, "Your identity information has been filled out. Are you available to proceed with the evaluation tests now?"
Before Zachary could respond, Charles interjected, "What’s the hurry? My brother just arrived and is still physically and mentally exhausted. Let him rest for a couple of days to recover his condition, and then we can conduct the tests."
