Chapter 533 - 322: Outburst! Rocket-Like Advancement! (Triple Combo)

[Jiang Ye, passed the First Trial]

A line of text appeared.

"Finally passed the first one."

"It wasn’t easy."

"How much time has passed? Almost an hour."

"At this rate, Jiang Ye might have immense difficulty passing the tenth trial." Hundreds of Chen family members looked at each other.

Over the years, those who could enter the Star Dome Hundred Refinements were the Chen Family’s top geniuses.

The First Trial was merely the simplest one.

The passage time usually would not exceed ten minutes.

But Jiang Ye? He took an hour to pass the First Layer.

Such a performance is truly poor.

"Daughter, is this the man you fancy?" A middle-aged man with a dignified appearance was watching the projection with a sigh in his heart.

He was Chen Zilu’s father, Chen Yuan.

Previously, Chen Yuan had no outward objection to Jiang Ye, but internally, he was contemplative.

And now, Jiang Ye’s performance made him feel very disappointed.

"Jiang Ye." An elder couldn’t help but speak in a low voice: "How can he be so slow?"

"Yes, this kind of performance is indeed somewhat unsatisfactory."

"The ancestor he..." Several elders silently looked in Chen Jiuxuan’s direction.

Previously, Chen Jiuxuan strongly supported Jiang Ye.

Now, with Jiang Ye’s poor performance, Chen Jiuxuan’s face would certainly be hard to keep.

These elders did not dare to provoke the ancestor’s ire and only communicated via transmitted voices.

But when they looked at their own ancestor, they were all stunned.

Chen Jiuxuan’s expression was exceptionally calm.

As if he had anticipated this scene long ago.

"Ancestor, you don’t seem surprised?" Chen Fang finally couldn’t hold back and spoke.

His heart was already dissatisfied, and now with Jiang Ye’s poor performance, he couldn’t suppress it anymore.

"Surprised by what?" Chen Jiuxuan said indifferently.

"It’s about Jiang Ye." Chen Fang quickly said.

"Do you all think Jiang Ye’s performance is poor?" Chen Jiuxuan said lightly: "But what if I told you he triggered the highest difficulty level of the trial?"

"Highest difficulty level?" The many Chen Family Elders were taken aback.

Trial difficulty? There’s such a highest level?

These elders had never heard of it.

The Star Dome Hundred Refinements was supposed to automatically match difficulty according to each person’s realm, wasn’t it?

"The Star Dome Hundred Refinements has its own set of selection mechanisms."

"If it deems your potential to be strong." Chen Jiuxuan said: "Then it will transport you into a highly difficult ’instance’."

"If you can pass the test, the rewards will be much richer."

"Of course, the risk of death will also be higher." Chen Jiuxuan said calmly.

Upon hearing this.

Chen Fang and the other Chen Family Elders showed expressions of astonishment.

Indeed, this was the first time they had heard such a statement.

"You don’t know because you haven’t experienced it." Chen Jiuxuan said lightly: "But I went through it back in the day!"

"At the time."

"The first time I entered the Star Dome Hundred Refinements, I fought for dozens of minutes in the First Trial." Chen Jiuxuan reminisced.

"Unexpectedly."

"After many years, someone triggered this difficulty again." Chen Jiuxuan sighed: "It truly moves me."

Chen Fang and the many Chen Family Elders looked at each other.

How could they not perceive the undertone of the ancestor?

So many elders present, not one could trigger the highest difficulty of the Star Dome Hundred Refinements.

And yet? An outsider managed to trigger it.

"This..."

For a moment, several elders couldn’t help but blush with shame.

"Ancestor." Chen Fang couldn’t help but ask: "Back then, to which trial did you break through?"

He regretted asking that as soon as he said it.

Since the ancestor had spoken thus, certainly, his performance was not pleasant back then, and he still foolishly asked such a question.

"No worries, it’s not a secret."

Chen Jiuxuan said indifferently: "Back in the day, I only got to the thirtieth trial, and couldn’t advance further."

"Thirty trials?" Chen Fang and others were surprised.

One must know, they all reached the seventieth trial back then.

And the ancestor only got to thirty trials?

The elders present all believed this was by no means due to the ancestor’s strength being inferior to theirs at the time but because the ancestor’s trial difficulty was exceedingly high.

"Back then, I classified this difficulty as ’Nightmare Level’."

"But during my second entry into the Star Dome Hundred Refinements, I did not encounter the same trial difficulty." Chen Jiuxuan sighed: "And never triggered it afterward again."

"No one else in the family could trigger the Nightmare Level difficulty either."

"Who would have thought?" Chen Jiuxuan sighed: "That Jiang Ye would manage to do it."

"This..."

The many elders looked at one another, speechless.

"Jiang Ye actually triggered the Nightmare Level difficulty?" Chen Fang was extremely surprised in his heart.

Doesn’t that mean Jiang Ye’s potential is comparable to the ancestor?

On the other side, Chen Yuan was equally surprised.

Could it be that his daughter really found a treasure?

"Ancestor."

"How far do you think Jiang Ye can get?" Chen Yuan couldn’t help but ask curiously.

"Not sure." Chen Jiuxuan shook his head.

He truly didn’t know.

Previously, Chen Jiuxuan had secretly observed Jiang Ye for a long time.

But recently, Jiang Ye entered the Star Realm Sea, isolated from the world.

So even he didn’t know Jiang Ye’s current combat strength.

"Twenty trials? Thirty trials?" Chen Jiuxuan shook his head: "Both are possible."

"Thirty trials?" Chen Fang, Chen Yuan, and other elders were shocked.

Did the ancestor have such high expectations of Jiang Ye?

Almost placing him at the same level as himself.

"Very well."

"I want to see." Chen Fang looked at the projection ahead, thinking to himself: "How far this Jiang Ye can actually get."

At the same time.

Chen Zilu’s father, Chen Yuan, was also closely monitoring Jiang Ye’s progress.
