Chapter: 1164
"How do we use this, sir?" Gianna asked after studying the crystal ball.

"The rules are simple. Place your hand on the crystal ball and channel your internal energy into it. The crystal’s color will gradually change.

"The passing color is black. Silver color means distinction. Those who turn golden will advance to the next level," the alliance staff explained.

"Alright! I’ll give it a shot!" Gianna exclaimed excitedly.

She put one hand on the crystal ball and channeled her internal energy. Soon, the milky crystal began to turn black.

However, the ball stopped changing colors when it was only half black. Gianna had nearly used up her internal energy, and sweat collected on her forehead.

No matter how much she tried, the crystal ball refused to turn black completely. In other words, she didn’t have enough internal energy to pass the test.

"Let me try!" Others tried their luck after her.

However, most were also unable to turn the crystal ball black. Only a few talented individuals managed to turn the ball black and some into silver.

"You’re up, Desmond "-Everyone’s attention was now on Desmond. He was the only one who could restore Boulderthorn to its former glory.

"Move out of my way!" Desmond gestured for them to move aside and went forward.

He placed his hand on the ball. Immediately, Divine Aura began flowing into the crystal ball.

There was a hum as the ball began to vibrate, and the crystal quickly turned black before turning silver. After the crystal ball turned fully silver, streaks of gold began appearing.

The Steeljaws Fellowship disciples were excited at the sight, and their eyes twinkled eagerly. Desmond was already incredible since he could turn the crystal ball silver. But if he managed to turn it golden, he’d outshine everyone else and could advance to the next level!

"Come on! You can do it!" Many people began to cheer for Desmond.

Nearly half of the crystal ball had turned golden. He needed to hold out a little longer, and the crystal would turn fully golden.

"Aargh!" Desmond gritted his teeth and continued channeling his internal energy into the crystal ball. His strength was draining fast. His face beaded with sweat.

Seconds later, the crystal ball hummed as it turned fully golden.

Desmond collapsed onto the ground. He was relieved and exhausted.

"Hooray! He did it!"

"Good job, Desmond!"

Everyone cheered excitedly.

"You sure are strong. Well, congratulations! You get to advance to the next level!" The alliance staff praised with a smile..

Few people could turn the crystal ball gold in one shot.

"What now, punk? Do you accept the outcome yet?" Devon sneered.
