No one thought Archie would cross the two-hundred mark in two minutes, but it is possible if one exhausted their Qi.
However, when he entered the 3-Point radiation level, his speed should decrease with his Qi before the radiation would surround him.
But not only his speed remained the same, but the smirk on his face never vanished. It was like he was taking a hike.
When he almost caught up to the front group without breaking any sweat, someone couldn't help but call out in doubt, "Is he using a high-grade treasure?"
Everyone looked at the invigilators with doubt. They all wanted the answer to this exact question.
This question snapped the dark bronze skin demon out of his stupor. He also felt Archie was using some kind of treasure.
But when he thought about the chief examiners watching the test, he knew it was impossible to escape theirs or the formation detection unless someone was using a grade-7 concealment treasure which was almost impossible.
Because above grade-6, treasures were personally handled by the Grand Demon Duke level figures. Moreover, those treasures were quite special because they could only be used by at least a quasi-law-awareness realm expert.
So, Archie was a diamond river core cultivator who didn't have the means to use one even if someone lent him one or he had those grade-7 Qi stones which were extremely precious in Royal Demon Nation.
"Don't doubt the credibility of the test. No one can cheat here, and if anyone accuses again, I'll have to ask everyone to leave." He coldly answered before turning his focus to Archie.
He suddenly thought about what Archie asked before he entered, and his heart trembled, 'Was he playing to be a fool before?'
Many have the same thought, but it still has to be seen, since Archie was still only halfway.
At this moment, other demons of the grand duke clan saw Archie crossing them, and he even waved at them with an amiable smile that left them dumbfounded.
"H-he?! How!"
Someone exclaimed when identifying who this demon was.
"Cousin, why are you so slow?"
Lucas, who was focusing on preserving his Qi, heard a jolly yet scornful voice from behind and nearly loss controlled.
Then Archie appeared beside him smilingly, "What's up?"
It dumbfounded Lucas before he gritted his teeth and shouted, "You tricked me again?!"
Archie didn't answer and merely smiled. He continued to run at this pace.
At this time, Nancy saw Archie appearing beside her like a ghost and yelped, "Y-YOU!?"
She clearly remembered she imbued some untraceable poison in Archie's hand which should've infiltrated his skin and then meridians, causing Qi deviation within thirty minutes.
She heard about Archie from her mother, and she told her to get rid of this little punk if she got the chance. But she never thought it would be so easy.
But now, it seemed Archie wasn't affected by her charm or poison, which made her feel fear of this smiling young demon who seemed to be innocuous.
"Don't forget our bet, or I'll make sure to skin you alive and then add you into my 'pretty skin collection', alright?" Archie smiled amiably as if he just said something trivial, but Nancy felt chills down her spine, and she even wanted to escape right now.
This guy wasn't a fool at all, he was a malicious trickster, and now she had fallen into his trap!
Before she could utter a word, Archie's speed suddenly increased while his foolish smile vanished from his face, and it turned cold, and he left somewhat scared Nancy behind.
Soon, he crossed Hugo, Bobby, and Charles without mocking them or saying anything, as if he wasn't interested in them or they weren't worth his time.
Charles's expressionless face finally showed an expression of shock when he saw Archie speeding up on them, even after giving them half an hour's advantage.
He was an extremely prideful person, and he loved to compete with others. He never thought someone like Archie would stimulate his fighting spirit so soon in this contest.
Without caring about anything, he also stopped saving his Qi and chased Archie!
"Hahahaha… that brat even got his old man worried about a moment. I'll beat his ass once I see him." Harvey suddenly laughed out loud, completely different from his gloomy self a moment ago.
When he saw his son crossing everyone within minutes without even being influenced by the radiation or Qi exhaustion and mocking those arrogant brats in the process, he felt like he was dreaming.
But he was glad he wasn't, and his anxiety turned into pride when he saw his son at the very front.
'That brat has really become a trickster with all these years of lying. Even I can't tell when he's lying or telling the truth. Well, I don't have to worry about him being deceived by others.' Harvey was gratified.
Finley and Black Duke, on the other hand, have hideous expressions on their faces when they saw Archie was pretending all along.
Furthermore, he had given half an hour's handicap to everyone, which means from the start, he never considered anyone his match and was confident of winning the first spot.
This kind of person was extremely dangerous, and hard to get rid of.
"It seemed like Charles had found this match this year." Ash Duke meaningfully comment, but his eyes were somewhat forlorn, 'This is troublesome.'
At this moment, Archie finally crossed the 3-Point radiation field and entered the 4-Point radiation field, and soon Charles followed suit.
However, Charles's expression was somewhat pale and went paler when he felt the 4-star radiation and quickly slowed down. But unlike him, Archie was still maintaining his speed without breaking a sweat.
'Just how much Qi he has and his willpower is even more ridiculous!? But it still made little sense, since the martial radiation should at least affect his body. Could it be he had already formed a grade-5 body?!' He thought with a grim expression.
Archie was a soul cultivator, so soul radiation being unaffected by him could still be understood, but what about martial radiation?
Unless he had a grade-5 demon body, but this pressure should at least slow him down.
Albeit, it was unheard of for a demon to have a 5-grade body in the river core realm because the pain and potency of the grade-5 medicines were enough to tear apart a river core cultivator unless they were emotionless madmen.
Those two invigilators' eyes also squinted when they saw Archie still moving unhindered in the 4-Point radiation field. It only happened thousands of years ago when a peerless genius from the Imperial Family appeared.
At this moment,
The four old demons were looking at Archie inside the pool projection with shining eyes.
"It seemed we have an interesting one this year." An old demon with golden skin and black tiger-like stripes commented with great interest.
"Merely a demon with some willpower. He's not a peerless seed." An old black demon whose height was only 2 feet, which was quite a rare sight among demons, coldly spoke.
"But willpower is key to soul path Old Imp. How about letting this brat enter my Soul Combatant House? He's a soul-life demon, and from his records, he's a cunning one." At this moment, the white skin demon with golden horns and a strange black rune symbol below his left eye proposed.
"Hehe, Brother Ampersand, isn't it too soon for us to divide the new students? Let's wait before he passed the last test. Besides, this brat has an unusual resistance toward radiation, a large reserve of Qi, and an impish mind. He would bloom in my Soul Assassin House."
A tall demon with ghost-like empty eyes and ash-black skin smile meaningfully. If one looks carefully, there wasn't anything in his mouth, and it was completely pitch black!
Ampersand merely glanced at this ghostly demon and emotionlessly looked at Archie, who had already crossed the into 5-Point radiation field and still looked the same.
"Well, as Brother Bodach stated, it still depended on the student which house he'll choose after passing the entrance test. Let's not force choices on them."
The two demons remain silent. They knew Archie wasn't suitable for their houses because he was a soul cultivator, so they could only let these two old demons fight for him.
But it still remained to be seen if he could pass the last test.
At this moment, Archie finally crossed the barrier without breaking any sweat, and the four demons looked with different lights in their demonic eyes.
"If we counted individual time, he took to cross the demonic pathway. It's a new record, and it's more difficult to break than the old one.
"But if we counted the time from the start to end, the record wasn't broken, which will also not reward with any Royal Points." Ampersand impassively looked at the three,
"Let's vote on this. I acknowledge this new record!"
No one thought Archie would cross the two-hundred mark in two minutes, but it is possible if one exhausted their Qi.
However, when he entered the 3-Point radiation level, his speed should decrease with his Qi before the radiation would surround him.
But not only his speed remained the same, but the smirk on his face never vanished. It was like he was taking a hike.
