I Am Overlord

Xiang Shaoyun had some understanding of Xia Yunxi's physique. Her physique was definitely not much worse than Di Lin's. Unsurprisingly, when she placed her palm on the assessment stone, eight stars appeared in the sky as if eight immortals were crossing the sky together, appearing extremely conspicuous.

This was a mid-grade eight-star physique, and could be considered an excellent physique even in the Dragon Phoenix Academy. It was no wonder she could also be a special-recruit disciple like Di Lin. Her physique combined with her looks and excellent temperament immediately attracted many gazes of adoration.

After Xia Yunxi left the assessment stone, Di Lin strode forth with the elegance of a prince out on a stroll. He smiled at Xia Yunxi on purpose, and she played along as she smiled back at him. It was now obvious for everyone that there was some sort of relationship between the two.

When his palm touched the assessment stone, eight stars appeared in the sky as well. They were obviously much brighter and vivid than Xia Yunxi's stars. High-grade eight-star physique! A crimson light also shone upon him, making him seem like the prince of the sun, looking incomparably dazzling.

"T-this is a high-grade eight-star physique and also an Innate Flame Star Physique!" an elder exclaimed in alarm.

"This physique is comparable to regular nine-star physiques. This is a top-tier physique. I must make him my disciple!" said a different elder.

An uproar erupted among the elders. That was especially true for the elders cultivating the power of flame.

But before they could do anything, someone said, "This kid has already been accepted by a previous generation elder as a personal disciple. Forget what you're thinking."

Just an eight-star physique was already an excellent physique. Combined with an Innate Flame Star Physique, the holder was definitely one with an extraordinary talent. An uproar had also erupted among the disciples. Their eyes were filled with envy. One could say that Di Lin was comparable to any freaks among them. He looked at Xiang Shaoyun, his eyes filled with provocation and disdain.

An eight-star and an innate elemental physique? So what? Just you wait, thought Xiang Shaoyun with contempt.

Next, Feng Clan's Feng Xiaosha went up and took his assessment. He had a mid-grade eight-star physique and an Innate Wind Physique. Similarly, he attracted much attention. It was a pity that his physique was somewhat worse compared to Di Lin's, and it caused him to be rather unhappy.

However, Di Lin wasn't the one with the best physique, as physiques comparable to his had appeared as well. One of the holders was the Ye Clan's Ye Linshan, holding a high-grade eight-star and Innate Wood Physique.

Apart from him, there were also Wang Yufeng with a high-grade eight-star Innate Earth Physique, Long Shi with a high-grade eight-star Innate Gold Physique, and a few other outstanding physiques.

These eight-star innate physique holders had all been accepted as personal disciples of the various previous generation elders. Regular elders weren't even qualified to become their masters.

The people there also noticed that the renowned eight freaks such as Baili Yixiao, Zhan Wushuang, Yu Ziyang, Yu Caidie, Han Chenfei, Ouyang Chuanqi, and Xiao Xie had not taken the assessment. Presumably, the eight freaks had been hidden by the Dragon Phoenix Academy, as they were true freaks among the new disciples.

When there were less than 10 disciples remaining, it was finally Xiang Shaoyun's turn to take his assessment. In the past, regardless of whether it was during his time at the Ziling Sect or Martial Hall Palace, he had never fully revealed his physique. Only he himself knew of the top-tier physique he possessed from his observations during inner gazing.

Di Lin, Xia Yunxi, Huo Xudong, and the others all focused on him, hoping that his physique wouldn't be better than theirs. As for Xiao Wei, he started getting nervous as well. After all, this was a special-recruit he had personally recruited, and this disciple had already displayed a stunning performance during the second round of the test. It would be great if this disciple could also perform well during this assessment.

Open your eyes wide and watch me, thought Xiang Shaoyun pridefully as he slowly placed his hand on the assessment stone.

However, nothing happened. Everyone was somewhat stunned. Nobody would believe that Xiang Shaoyun had zero stars. Fortunately, the silence only remained for a short duration. Instantly, nine ancient stars appeared. The sky seemed to be shaking, as if it was going to fall, as if the world was going to crumble apart.

The nine stars started shining, sending strands of incomparably divine radiance toward Xiang Shaoyun. The radiance swirling around him was brilliant and dazzling, making him look like the son of a god.

"T-this is a nine-star physique! There is really such a physique? How scary!"

"What a surprise! What a surprise! I've never expected that I would be able to personally witness a nine-star phenomenon. Even dying is worth it after witnessing this phenomenon."

"This kid is barely 20, right? With his physique, within 100 years, he will also be yet another Saint!"

"We should try befriending a freak like this. Even if we can't be his friend, we definitely can't be his enemy. Otherwise, we can forget about ever having a peaceful sleep."

"Look, there seems to be something else as well?"

...

The young geniuses were all shocked. A nine-star physique was definitely the best of the best, one that might not appear even among hundreds of millions of people. Thus, seeing one before them filled them with mixed emotions. They all wished to swap their physiques with Xiang Shaoyun. The young beauties all looked smitten, seemingly having the urge to pounce on Xiang Shaoyun and make him theirs.

And yet that was not all. The nine stars were actually incredibly clear and were even bringing them a dreadful pressure. This was a high-grade nine-star physique, an absolutely perfect physique. Since ancient times, the number of times such physiques had appeared could be counted on one hand. Each holder of such physique had eventually become a legendary god of the dominion.

"Impossible! How can he have such an excellent physique?" Di Lin roared, losing his mind.

Xia Yunxi was also greatly taken aback. Her face paled, and thick remorse surfaced in her heart. Once upon a time, this young man had been her lover. She had personally pushed him away. Not far away, Tang Longfei, Ning Wenhuang, Lady Shura, Shou Xie, and the others were completely dumbstruck. They knew Xiang Shaoyun was extraordinary, but they had never imagined that he would have such a physique. They felt like they were dreaming.

"I-I'm not seeing things, right? Shaoyun...has a high-grade nine-star physique?" Tang Longfei gulped.

Ning Wenhuang rubbed her eyes. "If you're seeing things, I must be seeing things as well."

"You're not seeing things. I'm not seeing things either. This is the truth," said Lady Shura firmly.
