"I'm going first. I have something to deal with." Asner told Jin Rou, "So you rest well here and wait for me to come back."
"Where are you going?" Jin Rou asked.
"Hmm, I'm going to test my physical power. There is an ongoing event in the town where you can measure your physical strength. Though to us elves, dao is more important, the physical strength shouldn't be left out." Asner smiled, "I want to see how much I improved, or did I really improve."
"I see." Jin Rou nodded and said, "I'm going with you. I will be bored here so let me tag along."
Jin Rou didn't want to spend his time looking at the ceiling or the lush and trees. He wanted to explore the surroundings to familiarize himself. Furthermore, he needed a full map of the world, so he might find one by the town.
"Are you sure? You are injured, I don't know if it's a good idea." Asner was worried. Jin Rou was just getting better, and Asner was worried that it might worsen again.
"Don't worry about me." Jin Rou chuckled, "I may not look like it, but I am pretty strong."
It was a good thing that Chaos didn't strip his power and qualifications here in Immortal. If ever it did, Jin Rou would surely complain for millions of times.
"Okay, then." Asner could see the determined expression of Jin Rou and eventually agreed, "But you need to stay by my side all the time. You are not allowed to roam without me."
"Deal." Jin Rou answered. It was natural that Asner would be like this, so he understood it and agreed.

Town of Strongone. It was one of the prestigious towns that the kingdom had. It was dedicated by the late emperor to the first friend he made who became an ancient king. The records about this was incomplete and lost, thus no one knew why the late emperor decided to name this town that way.
It was bustling like any other towns Jin Rou had seen. Only, the difference was that the people were more active than those he had seen. The stalls were properly lined up and the surroundings were clean, clearly that they were following by the rules.
They walked for 15 minutes before arriving to a certain place in the town.
Strongone Plaza. Currently, an event made by the higher officials of the kingdom was ongoing. There was a huge machine in the middle of the plaza and there was a punching bag hanging around.
Jin Rou could see that young ones were punching the bag with all their might and various numbers were appearing above the machine.
"Interesting." Jin Rou's interest was piqued. It was natural. After all, this was the first time he had seen this type of machine.
"Higher Office is currently hiring potential members of their power, thus they are holding this event. To test which of the young ones are talented enough to grow in the long run." Asner said, "That's why I'm here. It is my dream to become part ot the Higher Office."
Higher Office was the military power that the kingdom had. The power of the kingdom solely relied in this. They were the most respected people who were considered heroes of the elves. However, it wasn't that easy to join. They needed to procure enough power to be qualified to be tested. Fortunately, Asner was one of them. It wasn't easy to be qualified here as he worked much harder than everyone else in order to become one.
Jin Rou could see the burning desire and objective this young elf had. He couldn't help but chuckle, "You can do it. Even if you don't, you still have a place in this kingdom. After all, you are one of the few people which the kingdom had high hopes for."
It was true. No matter if Asner could join the Higher Office or not, he already had a place in this kingdom. As someone who solely relied on the source to get stronger, there's no one more capable enough to control it in the future other than him.
Anser was motivated by Jin Rou's words. But he didn't get complacent and was always humble as usual. He took a deep breath and made his first step forward towards the machine.
By now, everyone's eyes were on Asner. As he was very popular and respected, cheers around the vicinity could be heard. It was the power of the charm of one of the potentials.
"You're finally going to try it." The elder that was managing the machine smiled, "After all years of preparation, I hope you will be successful."
"En." Asner said seriously as he looked at the large machine in his front. It would determine his fate today, so he would make sure that he succeed.
"I'll give you few minutes if you want to." The elder smiled. He could deduce that Asner was nervous and wanted him to get his things together. He had a favorable impression towards Asner. Thus, he wanted him to succeed.
In order to pass this test, the physical strength should be more than 800 out of 1000. It was a strict criteria that made thousands to ten thousand aspiring officials doom to despair.
In fact, hundreds of young ones had tried right now, yet no one passed. It was depressing, but they couldn't do anything about it.
"I can do this." Asner took another deep breath. His face was serious and was ready to topple the rankings. So far, the highest that this machine had ever recorded was 957. It was an unbreakable record created by the late emperor himself.
Jin Rou closely looked at Asner. If ever he wanted help, Jin Rou would surly assist him. But he knew that Asner was a prideful being. The elf wasn't going to seek for an outsider's help in order to succeed. Anyway, he was just prepared to help if ever needed.
"Hah!" Asner gathered all his physical power in his first and immediately threw it off to the punching bag. That power was filled with the hardwork that he had in the past few years.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
"I'm going first. I have something to deal with." Asner told Jin Rou, "So you rest well here and wait for me to come back."
