Death… And Me Chapter 1014 - Rean's Performance

Chapter 1014 - Rean's Performance

Kayla nodded in response before paying attention to the compet.i.tion once again, muttering to herself, "Perhaps...we can get more than two Divine Veins?"

Kayla wasn't Rean and Roan, so she couldn't see the color of killing intent surrounding the people at the moment. However, the death glares directed at her when she said those words made it very clear that she said too much. "Ahem... I'm just kidding..."

Kidding your a.s.s! Who there couldn't see that she was serious?

Naturally, neither Rean nor Roan knew anything about that. Once Roan came out of the Divine Energy Capability test, he simply joined the Lukimira Sect's group again...followed by Kar, who had taken part in the test as well. Of course, he didn't get anywhere near Roan's result.

By now, Wamil and the other could see that Rean and Roan weren't joking when they spoke about the compet.i.tions they thought they could win. "Do you really you can get the other categories?"

Rean smiled in response to the question. "Perhaps? We don't know what our opponents can achieve, so we'll have to wait."

Roan then sat on the ground and took a few of the Divine Stones he won in the Soul Power test. The Divine Energy Capability relied entirely on one's Divine Energy reserves, so it was normal that Roan was empty at the moment.

He wasn't the only one, as most of the partic.i.p.ants were suffering the same issue. The only difference was that the majority didn't have Divine Stones to recover.

Fabio understood that, so he gave everyone two hours to recover before starting the next contest. "Alright, that should be enough now." He then waved his hand, and the spatial door to the next room appeared. "The next test is Strength Measurement. Those who will take part in it can enter now."

Rean and Wamil ended up being the Lukimira Sect's partic.i.p.ants. Seeing that another twin was once again entering the compet.i.tion, most of those who had the confidence to take first place couldn't help but wonder, 'You've gotta be kidding me! They're also good at physical strength?!' Unfortunately, it wasn't as if they could stop Rean from partic.i.p.ating.

Once inside, Rean quickly noticed that the majority of the partic.i.p.ants were from very distinct races. Races that had an advantage in their physical strength seemed to be a norm in this test.

The elder responsible for this test just so happened to be from one of those races, the Bogans. "I won't waste everyone's time. You're all under a pressure formation. This formation will detect the use of any Divine Energy skill. As you know, this is not the target of this test. Here, only physical strength matters. Once the compet.i.tion starts, you will feel pressure over all your bodies, trying to smash you against the ground. Resist it! The one to stay on his foot longest wins."

Rean then raised his hand as he asked, "Can we at least use Divine Energy inside our bodies?" After all, he was relying on his Enhancement Skill to partic.i.p.ate in this test.

The elder shook his head, leaving no room for leeway as he replied, "No! Divine Energy is Divine Energy, not physical strength. It can indeed increase your body's resistance, but it would make this test useless. Physical strength. That's all you can rely on."

Rean bitterly smiled, understanding that his plans to use the Enhancement Skill were jeopardized. 'Oh well... I still have some muscles of my own. I didn't survive Roan's training routine until now for nothing. Let's see how far I can go.'

Indeed, Rean could be said to be physically stronger than most humans at his level. However, he was against races that put their all on physical strength.

*Bang!*

Ten minutes into the contest, over 30% of the partic.i.p.ants had already fallen.

Rean wasn't any better, though. By the time twenty minutes had arrived.

*Argh...*

Rean fell to the ground, not being able to resist the pressure anymore. The other partic.i.p.ants around couldn't help but sigh in relief. After all, it at least meant the twins weren't perfect at everything.

Rean didn't do too bad, though. He still ended up in the top 50% as a human! In fact, he could be said to be the only human to have entered that contest as Wamil wasn't human. Talking about Wamil, he didn't do much better than Rean anyway, having fallen to the ground just four minutes before Rean.

Well, the formation knew when someone hit the ground, so the pressure a.s.saulting Rean's body disappeared once he lost to it. Rean then made his way back as he paid attention to the partic.i.p.ants who still held on. 'Sigh...I could have done much better with my Enhancement Skill. Alas, it was against the rules.'

The winner ended up resisting the pressure for one hour and five minutes. Unsurprisingly, he was part of the same race as the elder responsible for the contest, another Bogan. Those ones were very bulky, and Rean could feel the natural balance between the muscles and Divine Energy in their bodies thanks to his perception of Life Force. 'Quite impressive. Even if I were able to use my Enhancement Skill, I would still lose in the end. Perhaps my limit was within the top 80%, but definitely not anything better than that. The humanoid races of the Realm of G.o.ds are really interesting.'

Once outside, Rean shrugged his shoulders to his Lukimira Sect's group, telling them, "Well, we can't win everything. Hahaha!"

Wamil, who partic.i.p.ated with Rean, felt like giving him a beating. "Then, don't act as if you can get first place in everything. I only entered this test because I wanted to see your performance, you know?"

Rean laughed even more. "Hahaha! My bad, my bad. Then again, did you see the look on the faces of everyone who saw me entering this test? They all thought I was some kind of monster as well. When I fell on the ground, it was obvious how relieved everyone felt. So funny!"

Fabio's mouth twitched in response after hearing that. Rean didn't know it, but he was also one of those who thought Rean would fight for the first position. Now, hearing Rean's words, he truly felt like kicking his a.s.s. 'You're lucky that I'm pretending to not pay attention to you and your brother.'

He then put Rean's words on the back of his mind before continuing with the a.s.sembly.

*Vup!*

Another spatial door opened.

"The next test is....speed!"
