Krune was surprised to hear that. He didn't know that Major Cores could resonate.
"Isn't it bad? If this happens, then it might get things dangerous, depending on the situation."
Light Spirit answered.
"That's because your cultivation is too low, at the Core Formation Realm, you will be able to conceal the aura of a Major Core. A part of your soul will be inside the core, after all. So you will have control over it."
Krune let out a sigh of relief.
"Wait! I can already feel three Major Cores, doesn't that mean that the Divine Path sect should have even more?"
Light Spirit agreed with him.
"Isn't that obvious? The ten Major Cores are extremely rare, but the Divine Path Sect controls a planetary region with thousands, if not tens of thousands of planets. The total number of cultivators and demon beasts are probably inside of the quadrillions. It's bound to have a major Core owner once in a while."
Krune couldn't help but nod, that indeed makes sense.
"So, in this test alone, I will be against Three Major Core owners."
Krune was thinking about how to deal with it since they could feel each other's presence.
At the same time, the other three contestants with Major Cores also felt Krune's presence.
In a Spaceship of the Feyi Planet, a woman was meditating in her room when she suddenly felt that ripple. She looked in the direction of Krune's spaceship even though she was inside a closed room.
"Four Major Cores. It seems like this exam will be interesting."
She was Nala Glorel, a Peak Foundation Establishment cultivator, and a Life Core owner.
In a room inside one of the buildings already on the Divine Path Sect Planet, a Fire Dragon was sleeping comfortably. Suddenly, it opened its eyes and looked at Krune's spaceship direction too.
"Another one? So annoying."
His name was Gonat, a Yang Core Owner. He is part of the Palui delegation. Palui is an out of the norm planet, the majority there are demon beasts with just a few humans.
As for the last one, it is a youth with silver eyes called Colen Fecit. At that moment, he was inside a pocket dimension receiving training from a Void Breaking Realm elder of his clan. Suddenly, he lost focus on his training and looked in a particular direction. His elder noticed it and asked.
"What is it?"
Colen immediately answered with a smile.
"Another Major Core has just arrived."
The elder felt no surprise. He and Colen are both from the Nakai Planet, one of the biggest and most well-developed planets in the Divine Path Sect territory. This elder has seen Major Core owners before.
"Forget it, just focus on your training."
Colen nodded and resumed his practice.
Krune's spaceship finally docked somewhere in the outer sector, and everyone inside came out. There was no one that didn't look around curiously, this is the place that almost every cultivator and demon beast dreamed to join, after all.
Elder Loni then guided his contestants to a residential area where all the contestants from all planets were staying. The place was enormous and had everything one could imagine. Not to mention that all the training facilities were top-notch. On the way, Elder Loni bumped into another Outer Sect elder called Masfiu Halen.
"Hey Loni, are those your kids this time?"
Elder Loni noticed Masfiu and immediately smiled.
"Haha! Yeap, those are the ones. I'm very confident in some of them too."
Masfiu and Loni were friends in the Sect, so there was no hostility between them.
"I heard that Kirian paid you a visit during your test. Knowing her, she definitely went there to find a problem with you."
Elder Loni heard that and laughed even more.
"She did appear there, indeed. And she left behind a full bottle of Dragon Essence Liquid after losing a bet to me."
Masfiu's jaw immediately dropped.
"A full bottle?! No wonder you seem to be in such a good mood. Haha!"
Elder Loni then looked behind Masfiu and could see the contestants that he was encharged of.
"It seems like those are your kids too, which planet did you this time?"
Masfiu then showed an excited look.
"Yamole Planet."
It was Elder Loni's time to drop his jaw.
"Yamole? Isn't that a planet that is usually encharged to Inner Elders?"
Masfiu laughed there.
"You are right. But because there was a lot of inner elders in seclusion this time, they had to send an outer core elder to this one, and I was the lucky guy."
Elder Loni understood. But he didn't feel jealous. First, Masfiu is his friend, so he was happy for him. And second, Loni is pretty sure that at the very least, Krune will definitely succeed in the sect entrance exam.
"That's good for you, and it seems like we are both lucky this time. I'm very confident in the chance of these kids here. I reckon that at least one will enter the Sect."
Masfiu was surprised to hear that, it was then that he got an idea.
"Hey, in that case, what about we check our kids' elemental proficiency? There is a lot of kids from other planets in the Measurement Hall. It will also be good for them to know what is expecting for them."
Elder Loni pondered a bit and nodded.
"That's indeed good, let's go there."
He then looked behind and told Krune and everyone else.
"The Measurement Hall has hundreds of the same equipment that I used in the Garmon Planet to check your elemental talent. You will find a lot of contestants from other planets there too. Every time that a new Entrance Exam happens, it is common for them to compare their abilities there."
Both Loni and Mafiu's contestants got excited, they had just arrived, so they wanted to know how good they would fare against the other planets. But on the way there, Krune's group could see the disdain on the face of the Yamole contestants. They obviously didn't put the Makui Planet on their eyes.
But none of them got angry, if anything, they felt that funny. If it was in the past, they might really not have a chance against a much better-developed planet like Yamole, but now...
On their way there, Krune noticed one thing.
"Light Spirit, I can feel that we are moving in the direction of one of the Ten Major Core."
Light Spirit nodded.
"You would get to know them sooner or later anyway, just take this chance to check the difference between you and them."
Krune nodded and kept walking. He still hasn't told anyone that he could feel the presence of the other Major Cores.
By using the transportation available in the place, they only took around twenty minutes to arrive there. The area was filled to the brim with cultivators and demon beasts. It's not that the place was small, in fact, it was enormous. But there were just too many of them there.
Thanks to Elder Loni and Masfiu, they passed through the crowd without being barred. After entering the facility, they told their contestants.
"There, in the middle, you can see two enormous monitors. The left one shows the best scores of all times. As for the right one, it is reset every time the Entrance Exam happens. You can go and take a look. Masfiu and I are going to talk with the other elders, you can go ahead and test yourselves. See if you can get a good score."
But then, Loni remembered something.
"Oh, right! There are participants at the Core Formation stage and Foundation Establishment. So if you look at both monitors, you will see that they are separated by realms. The points given to both of them are different, too. So don't try to compare the score since the measurement used between them is different."
Masfiu and Loni then went to a corner where some of the outer elders were talking and left their contestants behind. But in fact, they are paying attention to see how good they will do in this test.
Krune didn't pay attention to anything there, though. All he could do at the moment was to look in the direction of the Major Core cultivator in the distance. It was Nala Glorel who came this time. She had been dragged out by her sister, Nadia Glorel, who was also taking the exam.
At this moment, both Nala and Nadia were the center of attention. Except for Krune's friends, no one knows that Krune has a Major Core. But Nala is different, it is public knowledge that she has a Life Core. So a lot of cultivators from big and well-developed planets were swarming all around her.
Fortunately, she had her elders to play the bodyguard role, so only really influential and strong contestants were allowed to talk with her and her sister. Although the Feyi Planet isn't as bad as the Makui Planet, it wasn't considered a strong one either. So they had to give some face to those from such planets.
Krune ignored all of that and started to move in her direction, which puzzled Yusa and the others. But they know that Krune would never do anything reckless, so he must have a reason for that.
The cultivators and demon beasts noticed Krune moving in Nala's direction and snorted.
"Hey brother, she isn't someone you can talk to."
"If you look too much, you might get blind."
"You can't blame him, who wouldn't want to get along with a Life Core Owner?"
"Just look how he gets beaten by those guys from the strong planets."
Nala had long since noticed Krune too, but she couldn't move because of those around here. She can't be impolite with them since their planet might suffer due to their wrath. Only when everyone noticed Krune approaching did they stop talking to her and looked in his direction. They were just about to rebuke Krune when Nala suddenly said.
"So, we finally met."
Krune nodded.
"This is really a magical feeling when I see you."
Some people felt that Krune was trying to court Nala, and they were expecting him to receive a harsh reply anytime soon. Except for Krune's group, of course. They know that Krune has no talent in the art of courting females, which puzzled them even more.
"I agree, I also felt the same when I saw you."
Contrary to everyone's expectations, Nala really answered the same way as Krune. Nala then came forward and extended her hand.
"I'm Nala Glorel, Feyi Planet."
Krune smiled and did the same.
"Krune, Makui Planet."
No one understood what kind of relationship they had. It was evident that it was Krune and Nala's first meeting, but they seemed to be expecting the other's arrival. The only one who showed an understanding face was Nadia. Her sister, Nala, had told her that she could feel the presence of other Major Cores. She then smiled and thought.
'So, he is one of them.'
