Mental suppression from the Realm Traveler.

Ling Feng first experienced the power fluctuation of a Realm Traveler. He felt that even if he achieved perfection at the eighth layer of Dharma Aspect, successfully opened his Dantian Sea of Qi, evolved his Bloodline Power, and significantly grew his Sea of Consciousness and Spiritual Power, as long as he hadn't nurtured Spirit Root Power, he was like an ant before a Realm Traveler, easily crushed with a wave of a hand.

He could even sense the mental power fluctuation released by Bo Jincheng at the moment, which might be less than one-tenth of his total strength.

Meanwhile, over three hundred martial arts students were present.

Among them were powerful figures from first-tier provinces, with perfection at the eighth layer of Dharma Aspect and even those who opened their Dantian Sea of Qi.

A mere wave of mental power from Bo Jincheng overwhelmed everyone, making it hard to breathe.

Ling Feng saw many people quickly releasing Dharma Power and even stirring up their Spiritual Realm, hoping to use the Power of Heaven and Earth Resonance to block Bo Jincheng's powerful surge.

He saw Ming Cheng had already released his Spiritual Realm.

Facing the mental power fluctuation descending from above, Ming Cheng's face flushed, his forehead covered in fine sweat, his fingers clutching the table so tightly they almost sank into it.

He also saw Lin Yanping from Jiangnan Province, proud as ever, clenching his teeth, his feet sinking into the grass, rigidly resisting that mental wave.

Suddenly, a gaze turned toward him.

Ling Feng saw it was Lin Chunchi sitting in the front.

"Very good."

Lin Chunchi nodded to Ling Feng.

At this moment, the mental fluctuations emanating from Bo Jincheng had already passed over the two of them. Although waves continued to surge over, like billows, both he and Ling Feng resisted with Dharma Power. Neither of them released their Spiritual Realm, clearly indicating that they both easily passed the first elimination round.

The King of North of the River, Ao Dagang, and several others on the viewing platform also saw Ling Feng's condition. Countless times before, as soon as the national exam's first round began, martial arts students from Jiangbei Province would fall or even faint on the spot when the mental fluctuations descended. No one had ever managed to withstand it.

Today, Ling Feng finally broke the miracle.

He successfully advanced to the second round.

At this moment, Ming Cheng released his grip, his Spiritual Realm gradually stabilizing. He looked curiously around and saw Ling Feng unharmed, also noticing Lin Yanping's slightly surprised expression.

"I made it through."

Ming Cheng said, his voice trembling.

Though he had confidence in advancing to the second round, realizing he managed to block that mental power attack, Ming Cheng was still moved to tears.

"That's great."

The King of North of the River applauded enthusiastically.

Jiangbei Province was scarce in talent, only able to send two martial arts students to participate in the national exam. Surprisingly, both advanced to the second round, an unprecedented event for Jiangbei Province.

"Mr. Zhao, Jiangbei Province has really surprised us this year."

Zheng Ningbo smiled.

As the leader of his province, also a fourth-tier province, his seat was very close to that of the King of North of the River and a few others.

"Likewise."

The King of North of the River responded stiffly, noting that all five martial arts students from Jiangnan Province had also advanced to the second round, breaking all their records.

Four hundred and ninety-six candidates participated in total.

The number of martial arts students from first and second-tier provinces far exceeded those from third and fourth-tier provinces because they had more representatives.

But even so, Bo Jincheng's mental waves eliminated over a hundred martial arts students, leaving only two hundred and thirty-three.

And most of those remaining were from first, second, and third-tier provinces, with very few from fourth-tier provinces.

"Congratulations on passing the elimination round. Next, I will reward you with a Spiritual Baptism."

Bo Jincheng said, standing in the air.

The martial arts students who had been eliminated left the center of the venue, leaving only those who had passed the test.

"Spiritual Baptism."

Someone exclaimed excitedly.

Everyone looked at Bo Jincheng with anticipation. Spiritual Baptism is a mental purification that makes one's mind more sensitive, discovering subtle powers, and its effect is equivalent to drinking a bottle of Spiritual Replenishing Liquid.

Although it doesn't compare to Spiritual Potion, Spiritual Power can still be effectively enhanced.

It is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

In every round of the national exam, as long as one passes, they can receive corresponding rewards.

Spiritual Baptism is the reward for the first round.

Ling Feng and Ming Cheng also learned from the King of North of the River that the Spiritual Baptism from a Realm Traveler is something even he envies greatly.

Of course, performing a Spiritual Baptism for over two hundred martial arts students at once cannot compare to a one-on-one Spiritual Baptism by a Realm Traveler.

Many scions of prominent families from first and second tiers, unable to directly nurture Spirit Roots from their Dantian Sea of Qi, would pay a high price to have a Realm Traveler conduct a private Spiritual Baptism to help them enhance their Spiritual Power, enabling them to find a response to nurture Spirit Root Power.

But even so, being able to experience a Spiritual Baptism from a Realm Traveler with others is extremely precious for every martial arts student present.

Even prodigies from first-tier provinces did not dare be careless, focusing all their attention on Bo Jincheng, awaiting his power to descend, ready to refine and absorb it completely.

"Buzz!"

At this moment, the special ripple descended once more.

Like divine dew from a holy spring.

Like a meteor shower, it fell upon everyone's heads.

"Buzz!"
