Chapter 17 So Many Points of Contribution Degree

Finally, it was Brooklyn's turn. He stepped onto the ground, but no one paid attention to him. Even some people disdained him much since he was not an official disciple. Almost every year, there were some nobodies who wanted to gain respect, but they all failed. Only a few people recognized Brooklyn, the lucky guy who took many Bestial Crystals from the Proving Ground and got the treasures which the predecessors left. So, the following scene shocked everyone. On the stage, Brooklyn took out his treasures one by one. Though they were not valuable much, such as some herbs and Bestial Crystals, which couldn't be sold in exchange for a high Contribution Degree, they were too many. Judged from the Elder, the total value of those things was about four thousand points of the Contribution Degree. Four thousand! How could it be? They screamed and shouted. Even those official disciples could only get about one thousand severally, and the highest they got was just about two thousand. How could Brooklyn, an unknown follower, get so many points? What a lucky guy to get so many treasures? However, it was not over yet. Just as they secretly cursed and was jealous much, Brooklyn took out another group of treasures. One, two, three...fifteen! There were fifteen the second stage Bestial Crystals, which were dazzling, bright, and made everyone jealous. Every each of them was able to get at least five hundred points, so the total value of them was seven thousand and five hundred points, which meant that Brooklyn had got a shocking number of points, eleven thousand and five hundred points! He must have been one of the top ten! It would be fine if Brooklyn was skilled and talented, but actually, with only five GY Marks and in the third period, Brooklyn was even no match for most disciples here. "What happened?" Someone shouted, but the answer to his question was more confusion. "He must have cheated! He prepared the materials in advance!" However, the top managers of the sect didn't speak. Brooklyn glanced around and felt funny. Cheat? How could anyone cheat in front of so many super masters? Power was the only thing the test-takers could rely on. No one was allowed to take anything after they entered the Proving Ground, so it was no chance for anyone to cheat. Brooklyn was delighted now. The Contribution Degree was so important that almost everything needed it. In the next part of this performance, Brooklyn saw Greg, who wanted to kill him in the Proving Ground. It seemed that Greg had healed his wounds well, but he could only get about two thousand points. Before Greg walked out of the stage, he stared at Brooklyn with murderous intention, but Brooklyn just glanced at him and ignored his threat. "The top one hundred will be promoted to be the inner disciples. I'm gonna call your name, and you should come here when you hear your names." When the performance was over, an elder got onto the stage and announced. This was the most critical time. The right to be an inner disciple was even greater than the contribution degree. There were only a few inner disciples and true disciples in Marshal Palace, and only they could get the real training. Brooklyn was also worried now. His contribution degree was able to make him be one of the top ten, but could he also become an inner disciple? The elder began to call their names. He called ninety-nine names, but there was no Brooklyn. "You, ninety-nine new inner disciples, will learn the real skills of our sect." The elder said. Those disciples' glances at Brooklyn were full of joys. This wimp still couldn't get respect even though he had got so many points. He would be a nobody all his life! "Hey, what a pity! You even still can't be an inner disciple even though you've got so many points!" Just as Brooklyn was upset, a voice with mock appeared. It was Matt. Brooklyn glanced at him and shouted. "Get out of my eyes, or I will tear up your dirty mouth." Brooklyn would never treat such a shameless guy kindly. Matt was stunned, but soon he continued. "Oh? You can only be arrogant with your strength from the body during the initial period. You'd better run away from here as soon as possible, because I'm gonna trick you all my life once I got more skilled than you!" Then Matt left. After all, he was afraid that Brooklyn would beat him up here. "Trick me? Let's wait and see who will be the one being tricked." Brooklyn murmured. Though he had only five GY Marks, and in the third period, with his super body quality and great fighting skills, he could defeat most disciples here. The elder left with the ninety-nine new inner disciples, leaving Brooklyn there. Though Brooklyn was disappointed, he could accept such a result. No matter how great he behaved, he was just a follower, who had no right to get anything valuable. However, he would try his best to be a real disciple here, and no one could stop his steps. The trial was over, and all the disciples left there. Just as Brooklyn left the square, he saw a girl in red rode standing there. The girl smiled as she saw Brooklyn. "Catherine?" Brooklyn's complexion turned soft as he saw Catherine. "Brooklyn, I heard that you got above ten thousand points just now!" Catherine came over and held Brooklyn's arm. "I know you're the greatest!" Brooklyn smiled, and didn't say anything. He was moved. This girl always trusted him much without any reason, and insisted on encourage him. However, Catherine's complexion changed to be cold. "I also heard that you were refused to be an inner disciple, for your identity as a follower, right?" "I just want to know who can let you be his follower!" Catherine spoke coldly, and Brooklyn could even feel the murderous intention in her eyes. It was the first time Brooklyn had seen Catherine get furious like this. "It's a temporary identity," Brooklyn explained. Then he told the truth to Catherine. Catherine's complexion became softer after hearing that, but her voice was still deep. "We have to change this situation. I'm gonna visit Doris soon, and try how powerful she is." "You have no need to do that. It's just a temporary deal. Trust me. I will be the official disciple sooner or later." "No!" Catherine's voice was firm. "I need to visit her." Brooklyn smiled bitterly. Catherine used to be obedient, but she was so stubborn today.
