The crowd was stunned.
They never thought Qin Nan would be so stubborn. He insisted on taking the test again with the risk of being sent to the Mystic Treasure Palace after Hall Leader Illusionist had rejected his request three times in a row.
Was Qin Nan really unable to accept the truth or had something actually gone wrong?
The Illusionist Martial Monarch stared at Qin Nan for a few moments before saying with a smirk, "I guess it doesn't hurt to let you take the test again. However, if you aren’t able to produce five Courage Crystals, you will be going to the Mystic Treasure Palace for the rest of your life!"
This was what he deserved after not following his orders three times in a row!
So what if it was an accident?
Qin Nan had only produced two Courage Crystals in his first attempt. Therefore, there was no way he could produce five in his second attempt!
"Hall Leader Illusionist, you…"
The Ancient Lightning Martial Monarch frowned and was about to rebuke him.
If Qin Nan was being so persistent, it was highly possible that something had gone wrong, but the condition that the Illusionist Martial Monarch had set was too harsh for him.
"Alright, I promise you, but senior, what if the Pillar of Courage is shattered if it can't withstand my courage?"
Qin Nan said with a calm gaze.
Everyone would prefer to achieve an incredible result in a test to place themselves in the limelight, including Qin Nan himself.
However, in Qin Nan's heart, he had already assumed himself to be a member of the Anti-Heaven Alliance, thus there was no need for him to break the Pillar of Courage, resulting in an unnecessary loss to the Anti-Heaven Alliance.
According to Qin Nan's plan, he could control his battle intent to produce seven or eight Courage Crystals in his second attempt, which would allow him to stand out without destroying the Pillar of Courage.
However, since this Illusionist Martial Monarch was being so harsh on him, it was his time to return the favor.
The Ancient Lightning Martial Monarch and the rest of the cultivators thought that they had misheard it.
What did Qin Nan mean by his words?
Was he trying to shatter the Pillar of Courage?
The Illusionist Martial Monarch was stunned for a second, before he burst out into deafening laughter, "HAHAHA, you're saying that the Pillar of Courage is going to break because it can't withstand your courage? If that happens, not only will I be held responsible for it, I will greatly reward you too!"
In his opinion, only the Alliance Leader had a chance of breaking the Pillar of Courage!
As for Qin Nan?
Absolutely impossible!
"Senior, you said it yourself!"
Qin Nan wore a grin as he went up to the Pillar of Courage and placed his hand on it!
"Tsk, Mu Mu, see that? This is Qin Nan's real character, ignorant and arrogant. Leaving the possibility of the Pillar of Courage making a mistake aside, does he really think he can shatter the Pillar of Courage? In my opinion, he will still only produce two Courage Crystals on his second attempt!"
Yu Langyan chuckled with a disdainful expression.
"This Qin Nan is indeed too arrogant!"
"I think he only wants to take the test again since he can't accept the truth!"
"Wait until he sees the result. He will surely lose his mind!"
The cultivators and the experts in the palaces collected their thoughts and discussed among themselves. None of them had high hopes for Qin Nan.
The Ancient Lightning Martial Monarch let out a sigh in his heart seeing that it had turned into the current situation. He looked at Qin Nan without saying anything.
Mu Mu was the only one who clenched her fists tightly.
Qin Nan, since you've said it, you're going to do it, right?
Whoosh!
At that instant, a white beam appeared from the Pillar of Courage, which swiftly produced a Courage Crystal!
The crowd was stunned seeing this!
One…
Only one?
Even worse than his first attempt?
"HAHA, Qin Nan, is this why you insisted on taking the test again?" The Illusionist Martial Monarch could not help but burst out laughing, "I already told you, your Martial Heart has completely lost its balance, and the result is the best proof for it——"
However, before he could finish, the Pillar of Courage emitted another glow which produced a second Courage Crystal.
The Illusionist Martial Monarch stared in disbelief.
The Ancient Lightning Martial Monarch and the rest of the crowd were stunned too.
Normally, when the Pillar of Courage produced the Courage Crystals, it was a signal that the test had come to an end.
Why would there be a second Courage Crystal?"
"Senior, here is the second."
Qin Nan's calm voice echoed in the hall.
Following this, the Pillar of Courage emitted another glow and produced the third Courage Crystal.
"Senior, here is the third."
When Qin Nan spoke, the fourth glow had already sprung into the sky and produced a Courage Crystal.
"Senior, here is the fifth.
"Senior, here is the sixth.
"Senior, here is…"
The Illusionist Martial Monarch, the Ancient Lightning Martial Monarch, Yu Langyan, and the cultivators had blank looks plastered across their faces!
Seven Courage Crystals!
Qin Nan had produced seven Courage Crystals!
The result had already surpassed some of the Martial Monarchs!
"Senior, here is the eighth.
"Senior, here is the ninth.
"Senior, here is…
"Senior…"
However, it was nowhere close to the end. Following Qin Nan's voice, one beam after another was fired into the sky, producing Courage Crystals!
The Illusionist Martial Monarch, the Ancient Lightning Martial Monarch, and the rest of the cultivators could feel a shocking explosion in their hearts!
Eleventh!
A total of eleven Courage Crystals!
Even the Ancient Lightning Martial Monarch had only produced nine, but Qin Nan had already produced two more than him!
How much courage to go against the South-Heaven Gate did he actually have?
Meanwhile, it was still not the end!
"Senior, here is the twelfth!
"Senior, here is the thirteenth!
"Senior, here is the fourteenth!
"Senior…"
As Qin Nan's voice repeated, one Courage Crystal after another dropped to the ground.
It finally came to a stop when the twentieth crystal was made.
At that instant, the Illusionist Martial Monarch, the Ancient Lightning Martial Monarch, Yu Langyan, and the rest of the crowd completely lost their ground as their hearts had experienced a great shock!
"Senior, I'm sorry."
Qin Nan suddenly said.
The Illusionist Martial Monarch was startled. He was sorry?
Did this mean…
"Break!"
Following this, a tremendous battle intent burst out from his body!
This time, Qin Nan did not try to hold back. He completely unleashed the battle intent in his body!
The Pillar of Courage suddenly emitted a blinding glow. The brightness continued to increase, and as it turned into a blinding golden glow, the Pillar of Courage's surface was filled with cracks!
BANG!
Following a deafening blast, the Pillar of Courage shattered into pieces. A great shockwave swept into its surroundings as the sound echoed through the sky!
