Although the Double Palace City does not look high, it covers a very large area. Looking from above, it is hundreds of hectares. There is a river in the middle, dividing the Double Palace into two. On the left is the Martial Palace, and on the right is the Magic Palace. The Magic Palace is rather dilapidated, with fallen leaves and flowers all over the ground and no one cleaning it. The Martial Palace next to it is a completely different scene, with people coming and going, and there are people cleaning the ground, making it spotless.
This is also the reason why magicians are dozens of times rarer than warriors.
Flying vehicles are prohibited from flying directly above the twin halls. Wang Xiaohai parked the hover sports car in front of the hall door, locked the car, and then walked into the martial arts hall.
The main gate in the middle of the red wall of the Martial Hall had been demolished long ago, but there were still two warriors standing guard in front of it, checking the credentials of those entering the hall.
Wang Xiaohai was stopped: "Stop and show me your proof!"
"What proof do you need?"
"There are three types: temporary certificate, employee certificate, and disciple certificate." The warrior on guard answered.
"Don't you know me?" Wang Xiaohai asked. He thought everyone was paying attention to the competition.
"I know you, but I still need proof," the warrior on guard said. "Because some bad guys like to disguise themselves, so even if I know you, I need proof. Do you understand?"
Wang Xiaohai thought about it and handed it to the warrior on guard. The warrior checked the anti-counterfeiting mark on it, handed it back to Wang Xiaohai, and saluted: "Come in!"
Wang Xiaohai put away the medal and walked in.
The Martial Palace is extremely large, with intricate roads and numerous buildings, but there are no obvious signs. Wang Xiaohai walked on the road, not knowing where to go next?
"You're a new disciple, right?" A helpful staff member from the Double Hall approached Wang Xiaohai when he saw him standing there. "Go straight southeast and you'll find a welcoming hall. You can scan your ID to get in."
Wang Xiaohai walked towards the southeast and after about ten minutes, he saw a magnificent circular building, the Welcoming Hall.
There was an employee sweeping the floor with a vacuum cleaner in front of the hall. He glanced at Wang Xiaohai, then bent down and continued working.
"It's another beautiful day." Seeing Wang Xiaohai swipe his certificate and enter the hall, the warrior who was sweeping the floor stopped working, stood up and looked into the distance.
A passerby saw the employee carrying a vacuum cleaner and immediately stopped and asked respectfully, "Palace Master, when will you be back?"
The man holding the vacuum cleaner is none other than Xianwu, the master of the Martial Hall among the two halls. He is the strongest warrior on the continent and a martial saint!
The welcoming hall was closed after Wang Xiaohai entered.
The lights came on one by one, and it turned out to be a modern hall filled with various instruments.
A robot with pulleys under its feet slid towards Wang Xiaohai, and its red, yellow and blue flashing lights kept flashing.
"Welcome! It's been six months since anyone has come to the Welcome Hall," the robot said in its characteristically emotionless voice. "You can call me Welcome Robot Number One. I'm responsible for all matters in the Welcome Hall. Of course, there are no other robots here."
"Where should I go next?" Wang Xiaohai asked. "Are you going to give me money? Don't give too little. I won't even bother looking at anything less than 1 billion."
"I've been here for nearly a thousand years, and I've replaced all my body parts countless times. And you're the first person to ask me for money in the Welcome Hall!" the robot said. "There's no money to be given here. Didn't you ask someone or check online before you came?"
"Isn't it enough to just ask you directly? Is there any need to check?" Wang Xiaohai spoke frankly.
Fortunately, the welcoming number one is a robot. If it were a real person, Wang Xiaohai would probably be so angry that he would be fuming.
"Okay, I'll tell you," the robot said. "Since the selected disciples have different qualifications and talents, the Welcome Hall is responsible for bringing your qualifications to the same starting point."
"How do you pull it?" Wang Xiaohai asked, "Use a rolling pin?"
"Gene repair device!" The robot raised its voice. "Alright, you need to go through a test with me first, so we can repair your genes in a targeted manner."
"What test?"
"Come over and you'll know." The robot turned around and slid backwards, its wheels squeaking as they pressed against the ground.
Wang Xiaohai followed the robot and walked out of an inspection and analysis room filled with shadowless lamps.
The four walls of the inspection and analysis room lit up, and all the lights in the room shone on Wang Xiaohai. Various rays made him look like a transparent man.
Four different images instantly appeared on the four side walls, like movie scenes, and the protagonist in them was Wang Xiaohai.
On the east wall, Wang Xiaohai fought bloody battles with countless beasts and evil spirits on the battlefield, and his various performances were consistent with his brave character.
On the west wall, Wang Xiaohai was surrounded by countless women, their faces flushed, testing his emotions.
On the south wall, Wang Xiaohai was debating with a group of heroes. He spoke passionately and eloquently, and all his quotations from classics had their sources, which was testing his wisdom and on-the-spot thinking.
On the north wall, Wang Xiaohai was alone in the starry sky, wondering what he was detecting?
"Ding Ding—comprehensive test completed." The images on all four walls turned off, and the robot looked at the scores displayed on the walls. "Courage score 91, Emotion score 52, Wisdom score 93, Adversity score 100, total score 336. Congratulations!"
"Is this a lot or a little?" Wang Xiaohai asked.
"Except for failing in your emotional score, everything else is excellent," the robot said. "For thousands of years, you've been ranked second. Hundreds of years ago, someone achieved the highest score of 340 points, a record that has remained unbroken. If you can pass in your emotional score, you'll set a new record!"
"Can that repair my genes to full strength?" Wang Xiaohai asked again.
"You wish. With the most advanced technology in Shuangdian now, gene repair can only reach a maximum of 80 points. Do you need to repair your emotional genes?" said the robot.
"Gene repair, is this considered a reward from the Twin Palaces?" Wang Xiaohai asked, "Can I exchange it for a different reward? If my genes are modified, I'm no longer myself, so I don't need repair, even if my evaluation is zero!"
"This is the first time I've seen someone score a perfect score on the mysterious adversity score. Legend has it that it's impossible to score perfect marks on wisdom and adversity. Even gods can't do it. It's too strange. I'll report this to the current hall master and see if I can give you a special reward?" said the robot.
Wang Xiaohai understood that this score was based on his performance when he was pushed into a desperate situation. Although he might not be able to turn defeat into victory, he would definitely find the most perfect solution!
But, this is definitely his cheating method - the Book of the Future!
That’s right, with the Book of the Future, one can see countless possibilities in the future, and then find the most perfect one. This is why he got full marks in adversity!
It's amazing that this machine can even test this! It's worthy of being a super-technological product that has been running for thousands of years!
"But I don't pass the emotional test. Could it be that the instrument is broken? I always feel that I am quite popular with girls." Wang Xiaohai said to himself.
"Being popular is a matter of charm and has nothing to do with emotional intelligence." The robot corrected Wang Xiaohai.
"Has the special reward arrived?" Wang Xiaohai asked the robot.
"The Palace Master has agreed. Give me five Golden Martial Fruits and I will help you transform them." The robot stretched out its hand to Wang Xiaohai.
