Shining Duos

"Really? I'm the first one out?" Breathed out Kazami too exhausted to even get up from his spot.

"Yes, but the other four from your group won't be far behind. Oh and take this to at least get yourself back on your feet."

Taking out a white pill, the Law Master tossed it straight into Kazami mouth with perfect accuracy.

Swallowing the pill Kazami immediately felt some energy coming back towards him, it was enough for him to only be able to move around again.

"Ah and here they come now." The City Lord sensed and look up to see one by one portals appearing and dropping Kuzumi, Lun Yuo, Lauren, and Castiel in exact order.

'Thud!'

They all slowly hit the ground none of them have enough energy to move similar to how Kazami was at first.

"Seems like some more pills are required." Law Master remarked as he tossed four more of the same pills in their mouths.

Once they have all taken the pill, the four of them sat up and notice they were back on stage and Kazami was already there first.

"That stage was an eye-opener alright, but look at you brother you seem the least affected." Kuzumi was casually making her way towards Kazami while stretching out her arms.

"I wouldn't say I wasn't affected beside I was given the same pill as you all but I did learn some things from that stage."

"No matter what if that what a cultivator could experience at any time in his life then we'll just crush it! Like we did today." Lun Yuo despite what she just experience still had her burning will roaring to go.

"You know I'm inclined to agree with you this one time if something like the fear of death can stop us then were worth shit for our families." Lauren also commented while standing up and dusting herself off.

"Yea we're not allowed to back down to something as small as fear," Castiel said in a cross-legged position still thinking about his bloodline activation.

'Clap, Clap'

Two claps ranged out and the group turned to the Law Master and the City Lord.

"Now isn't this great seems like you five are more than fit to be cultivators and not only that you even had the option to scream "I give up" when the tentacle slid off your mouth but none of you even thought about it." Law Master praised the group.

"And is it true about their combat prowess Psionics Law Master?" The City Lord had an expectant expression awaiting what kind of talents the group posses.

Hearing about having a special combat prowess the group perked up as most of them haven't fought anything beyond their level beside Kazami and Kuzumi when they would do their special training.

"Oh yes it's very true you all believe it or not have the ability to contend with a middle-level Spirit Formation cultivator and that just a rough estimate as you all need to practice in your divine abilities."

"Divine abilities?" Question Kazami

"Holy shit were pretty badass even at the Qi Connection stage!" Boasted Lun Yuo.

"Anything less would've been a joke." As if Kuzumi expected this, she had a proud look.

"Not bad not bad at all if I do say so." Lauren nodded happy with herself.

"Now we're in business." Castiel finished off thinking about the possibility.

Smiling a bit Law Master continued; "Now I would say don't get a big head now but this is truly wondrous. As you may or may not know the Spirit Formation Stage is the true start to becoming powerful and people in the stage all enhance themselves with Spirit Qi; which completely suppresses ordinary Qi in every way. And that monster you just faced was at the 4th level but all of your attacks destroyed it in one hit."

"And not even geniuses in High God realms or even Central God Realms can boast about this achievement while being in the Qi connection stage. Hell at most I only see outstanding geniuses only skip 3 small levels at most, not an entire realm." The City Lord concluded still amaze at the five potential.

"But you mention divine abilities I can only assume we were able to go so far because of it do you know what they're and why the hell was that monster so strong and yet you only made us peak Qi Connection?" Kazami asked slightly cautious of these two powerhouses.

"For starters only by doing it yourself will you discover the most about your divine abilities but do know they stand out on top even across the whole universe and it will only evolve through time. And the reason why that monster was above all of your levels was to ignite the hidden potential in you all and see where that carried you. Of course, in reality, none of you would've even died if you screamed to give up or if you let yourself get killed I would've teleport you out." Law Master explained out to the five.

"I see so only when we thought we would die is when whatever latent abilities we have would be unleashed. Huh? Speaking off where is the rest of the competition we didn't even see another one during the first stage completion." Kuzumi was looking around and asked.

"Huh well you see, the five of you had no problem with the first stage and completed it quickly and then went straight to the second stage leaving the others in the dust. And while you all were struggling in the second stage the rest are now in the second stage although I doubt they will have a clean victory as you guys did." Answered the City Lord.

"That right normally when I do conduct these games, I will let anyone who do show enough potential and determination to pass on but nobody has ever in history manage to kill the monster or even beaten it back. Now, are you ready for the last stage I'm expecting good results." The Law Maser said while once again creating a strange black door.

"OF COURSE!" They all shouted eager to see what the last challenge that lied ahead of them.

"Alright take a step right through here then." Pointing to the door; the group lined up right in front of it.
