The other three Transcendents also showed their powers, and Kyle felt like a new world was opened up before him.
Their powers were so varied, and for some of them, Kyle couldn't even analyze what Laws they used for their Complex Law.
One of them simply pointed at the Examiner's attack, and it just stopped.
Kyle just felt a bit of unfamiliar Energy coming from that person before the attack stopped.
It was crazy.
These were the elites of several planets, and they had gathered here.
All of them were incredible geniuses.
Kyle had met one Fulfilled Transcendent before today, the Duchess of Twilight.
However, while the Duchess of Twilight was probably more powerful than they were, and maybe even Kyle, that was because she had had enough time to condense two powerful Complex Laws.
She had condensed her first powerful Complex Law when she was close to the end of her natural longevity, or even after that.
If she had the same opportunities as these people, the Duchess might not even have become a Fulfilled Transcendent.
Compared to these people, the Duchess was quite a bit less talented.
"The five of you pass," the Examiner spoke. "As you all already know, any Fulfilled Transcendent that passes this exam will be sent to the trials of our parent organization, Archon."
"Archon's trials start in six months. Until then, you may stay on Carnis. You are not permitted to leave Carnis lest someone else disguises themselves as you and take your place."
The Transcendents simply nodded.
"I will take you to Rivel when the time comes. Until then, you are free to spend your time on Carnis however you wish."
After speaking these words, the Examiner left the hall again, leaving the Transcendents.
The other four Transcendents gathered in a group and talked with each other.
Kyle just threw a glance at them before walking out of the building.
Six months was an awkward amount of time.
It was not long enough to properly get lost in the Laws, but still annoyingly long for just standing around.
When Kyle left the building, the four of them threw a glance at him.
"Until we meet again," Kyle heard inside his head.
He turned around to look at them.
Right now, Kyle was not directly beside them, and yet, one of them managed to send a Voice Transmission over such a distance.
Kyle couldn't do that.
His eyes met with the eyes of the person who had stopped the Examiner's attacks by simply pointing at them. It was an older woman with short silver hair.
She wore a long, grey dress, and she looked at him with a serene expression.
The other three hadn't noticed that she had contacted Kyle.
As an answer, Kyle just nodded once before continuing.
The woman's smile widened just a bit.
'I have no idea what her Complex Law is,' Kyle thought. 'The way she stopped the attack was too strange. Even more, she didn't even seem strained.'
His instincts told him that she was dangerous.
Most likely, she was on a different level than the other three participants.
'She might also be someone who's trying to become a Unique Transcendent. Although she could also be…'
'Well, who cares? Thinking about this won't change shit. Still gotta kill about six months of time.'
Kyle walked over to a certain building of Table Feast and entered.
These were isolated temporary residences. If someone wanted to spend some time alone, they could rent them.
Naturally, as a guest of Table Feast, Kyle didn't need to pay anything for his room.
After entering his barren room, he sat down and focused on his Yin-Fire and Yin-Metal.
'My goal is to fuse Yin-Fire, Yin-Metal, and Yin-Wind into a Mixed-Elemental Complex Law. Then, I take that, remove its essence, and infuse it into my Law of Body.'
'I have no idea if I will succeed, but I still want to try.'
'First, I need to find a good way to fuse Yin-Fire and Yin-Metal. These six months should give me some insight.'
Kyle summoned the two kinds of Elements and experimented with them.
As he started, he got reminded of the time he experimented with the Yang-Elements in the Tertiary World.
This was very similar, but much more complex.
In fact, it was crazy how difficult it was to fuse just two Yin-Elements.
"Come to the Teleportation Hall," a voice in Kyle's room said.
Kyle quickly shook his head to regain his focus and looked up in shock.
'What? Are six months already up? Brah, I barely even started!'
Nevertheless, Kyle did as he was told and went towards the Teleportation Hall.
When he arrived, he saw the Examiner and the other contestants.
"Everyone's present," the Examiner said. "We are now going to Rivel."
'Sure as shit, six months have already passed,' Kyle thought. 'Time inflation is crazy.'
'I still remember how, in my youth, one hour was worth sixty minutes! Now, you barely get 30 seconds out of an hour!'
The Examiner led the contestants to a Teleportation Formation Array, and it almost immediately activated.
As the owners of Carnis, Table Feast also controlled their Teleportation Formation Array.
Space warped around Kyle, and he found himself in a small hall with the others.
This was also a reception cabin, but this thing was much bigger and made of better materials.
The Examiner led them out of the hall, and Kyle saw the new planet he was on, Rivel.
The first thing Kyle noticed was that the gravity here was even stronger than on Orchis.
It was so powerful that Kyle probably couldn't even fly into space.
The next thing Kyle noticed was the blue sky and the white clouds.
He could also see some trees and humongous buildings on the horizon.
The buildings looked like they came out of Manhattan.
'Feels like I'm back on Earth.'
Sadly, Kyle couldn't see too much of the city or the planet since he wasn't looking at it from a great height.
While he was looking around, the Examiner led them to a plaza that was almost ten kilometers wide.
"We wait here," the Examiner said.
Kyle looked around, and he noticed a couple of other groups arriving as well.
There was one powerful person leading every group, and the groups consisted of one to seven people.
As more time passed, new groups stopped appearing, and everyone was just waiting on the plaza.
'Ten groups in total,' Kyle thought. 'Assuming the powerful person is the examiner of every group, there are only 25 contestants. That's not a lot.'
However, while Kyle could see that there were only 25 contestants, he could also see that each and every one of them was a Fulfilled Transcendent.
After some more waiting, a new person came down from the sky and landed in the middle of the plaza.
When Kyle felt the Energy around that person, his brows rose.
'Fusion Realm!'
People in the Ninth Realm were the most powerful people living in the Main Dimension.
Of course, from time to time, stronger people from the Immortal Dimension also descended, but they generally didn't stay here for long.
The Fusion Realm person was a beautiful woman, wearing an ethereal black dress, and she looked at the gathered people.
"Inspectors, (FART!)step forward," she said.
The next moment, one person from every group stepped forward, and surprisingly, all of them were contestants.
The person in Kyle's group, who stepped forward, was that one woman with the mysterious Law.
The ten people stopped in front of the Fusion Realm Seeker.
"Make your report, " the Fusion Realm Seeker said.
'Hah, knew it!' Kyle thought as he saw that silver-haired woman in the group. 'She's an Inspector.'
Sometimes, powerful organizations would send some of their disciples to inspect how their subservient organizations did their job.
The silver-haired woman was a Fulfilled Transcendent who was already part of Archon.
She had just been in this group to see if the Examiner did his job correctly.
Luckily, he did.
Although this dropped the number of unaffiliated Fulfilled Transcendents from 25 to just 15.
Only 15 Fulfilled Transcendents had signed up for the tryouts in all the territories belonging to Archon.
They probably represented between 5% and 10% of all the Fulfilled Transcendents of hundreds or thousands of planets.
