Becoming God of a Dystopian World - Chapter 292: The Color of the Cores

“Who is this beautiful senior?”

Feng Ma asked right when he reached them while everyone instantly glared at him.

Even Zhao Luo was staring at him before he pulled Feng Ma closer to him.

“She is a senior elder.”

Zhao Luo whispered in Feng Ma’s ears before turning towards the beautiful lady with long blonde hair who was sitting behind the only reception in the whole walkway.

The five doors were which were the entrance to the lecture halls were just ten feet away from where Zhao Luo was standing at.

Feng Ma sweated as he looked at the young lady sitting behind a brown table with her hands clasped and placed over the table as if she was waiting for something.

“Greetings, Senior Elder.”

Feng Ma bowed his head and Zhao Luo nodded since even the drunkard knew what he was supposed to do here.

“Elder, what was the test you were talking about?”

Zhao Luo questioned the Elder as he looked at her respectfully.

Just the presence of this “Senior Elder” was extraordinary. Not to mention her beauty that seemed to rival that of Mo Anna’s.

‘Her beauty far surpasses Senior Yuu Mi’s.’

Zhao Luo and the others thought since this was how everyone’s mind worked.

“Everything is art.”

The Senior Elder suddenly said. She was already telling them about the test but since Feng Ma had joined, she had to start again.

Senior Elder looked at Zhao Luo and smiled and gestured him to continue.

“We are also just art made by an unknown entity. Each art has a specific color which is its core.”

Zhao Luo repeated the words of Senior Elder and pointed downwards with both of his hands.

Feng Ma who had joined just now unknowingly glanced a little lower than where Zhao Luo had pointed.

“Interesting disciples.”

The Senior Elder spoke with a chuckle that was as melodious as a siren’s singing.

Feng Ma looked away with embarrassment while Zhao Luo also had black lines on his face as he shook his head while looking at the Senior Elder. In the end, they both were still in front of an Elder, no less.

“Elder, my little brothers are just very naughty, so please don’t mind them openly showing their love for each other.”

Senior Cutie laughed as he looked like he was having fun after a long time.

‘This baldy.’

Zhao Luo and Feng Ma cursed at Senior Cutie in his mind and looked at the Senior Elder who only had a smile on her face.

Senior Elder brought out a clouded ball which was big enough that even when she used both of her hands, only half of the ball was covered.

‘Why did she bring out a ball?’

Zhao Luo questioned the reason why the elder was suddenly brought out a ball.

He gazed at the ball which looked like a simple glass that had a thick white cloud trapped inside it.

“This ball will show the color of your core. The color of your core will tell you about the types of internal energy that you can cultivate. It can either be one of the four colors or in between any of two colors.”

The Senior Elder told them while pointing at the ball and then the green, red, white, and blue door, one by one.

“What about the black door?”

Zhao Luo asked since there were five doors there and the Senior Elder was only talking about the four of them.

“There has never been someone with a black core before except…”

Senior Elder told them but as she remembered the only one who was the unusual one, she stopped and Zhao Luo could see the reverence in her eyes as she seemed to be remembering the one who had a black core.

‘Except who?’

Zhao Luo and the others were waiting for the revelation but the Senior Elder just shook her head before pointing towards the ball.

She looked at Senior Cutie and opened her mouth.

“You look the oldest of the group. Go ahead.”

Senior Cutie was shocked as just because he was bald, the senior elder had told him that he looked the oldest of the bunch.

“Yes, Elder.”

Even though he wanted to complain but the lady in front of him who looked the same age as them was already a Senior Elder.

‘She will squash with just a blow.’

Senior Cutie mumbled while placing his hand on the ball.

“No Breathe in and then hold your breath.”

She instructed Senior Cutie whilst he had his hand on the ball.

‘Huff~’

He breathed in and slowly closed his mouth while calmly holding it in.

“Feel that air inside you and imagine that you can move that air towards your hand and then force it into the ball.”

The Senior Elder kept ongoing.

Even though her words did sound outrageous but Senior Cutie still followed them step by step.

‘Nod.’

He nodded his head before his eyebrows furrowed together.

‘Is he constipated?’

Zhao Luo mumbled while grinning at the expression on Senior Cutie’s face but just then in front of his eyes and the eyes of others, the cloud inside the ball was being replaced by a red shine.

The shine grew more and more, till the ball itself looked like a bloated drop of blood.

“Your core is bright red.”

Senior Elder told Senior Cutie who had removed his hand from the ball.

The red color disappeared the moment Senior Cutie had pulled back his hand from the ball and the ball looked like it had a cloud trapped inside it once more.

“Your turn.”

The Elder looked at Big Bean and then told him to place his hand on the ball.

Big Bean placed his hand on the ball which looked like a small chestnut in Big Bean’s hand.

A red shine was emanating from the ball which showed that Big Beans core was also red

Next was Feng Ma, who already had his hand on the ball.

The ball showed a light red color with a small blue sphere in the middle of the ball.

“Hmm.”

The Senior Elder looked at the dual-color in the ball and then stared at Feng Ma before showing a beautiful smile.

“You can either enter the red door or the blue door.”

“So, I have a choice like that.”

Feng Ma listened to the Elder’s words and then looked at Senior Cutie and Big Bean.

“I will enter through the red door.”

Feng Ma told them, showing that he would be going with them but both Senior Cutie and Big Bean looked uninterested in his choice.

“I guess, you are the only one who cares for me.”

Feng Ma raised his wine flask and almost kissed it.

The Senior Elder laughed as she looked at Feng Ma before she regained her composure and looked at the three who already knew what their cores were.

“You should pass.”

She told them and they nodded.

Zhao Luo bid them farewell since who knew what his core would be and if he will even pass through the same door.

Right before entering the door, Feng Ma looked at Senior Cutie and Big Bean.

“I will be entering through the blue door.”

Feng Ma told them but they could see the hidden meaning behind his sudden change of mind.

‘It’s your last chance to show how glad you both were that I am going through the same door as you.’

Feng Ma thought while waiting for Senior Cutie’s response.

Senior Cutie smiled since he could see through what Feng Ma was thinking.

“Oh no. Little Brother, please go with us.”

Senior Cutie said to Feng Ma who instantly smiled at Senior Cutie’s words.

“Ah, if you say so.”

Feng Ma raised his hands as if he had no other choice but to follow the two and enter through the red door.

After their little exchange, Senior Cutie, Feng Ma, and Big Bean left the walkway.

Zhao Luo looked back at the elder with a smile which was the result of the show he was watching that was started by Feng Ma.

“You should try now.”

Senior Elder looked past Zhao Luo and told Si Chen.

Si Chen walked to the front and placed his hand on the ball.

As he followed her earlier instruction and directed his breath towards the ball through his hand, the ball turned blue.

“Hmm, good.”

She said while pointing towards the blue door and Si Chen bowed to the Elder before glancing at Zhao Luo and the others as he made his way towards the blue door.

“I will go next.”

Pi Hao said as he placed his hand on the ball.

A moment later a green color radiated from the ball.

“A sturdy core.”

The senior elder mumbled while looking at Pi Hao as she directed him towards the green door.

“Farewell, Brothers.”

Pi Hao bowed gave a fist-palm salute while looking towards Zhao Luo and Xiao Yu.

Zhao Luo and Xiao Yu nodded at him after which Pi Hao passed through the green door and they couldn’t see him anymore.

“Who will go next?”

The Senior Elder asked suddenly and both Zhao Luo and Xiao Yu pointed at each other.
