BAIHU (White Tiger Warrior): Challenging the Dragon
CHAPTER 11 | Strength selection exam

After getting a brief explanation of the selection procedure from elder Wang Mei, the woman then took the 10 prospective disciples of the sect to the selection place on the right of the gate.

“Alright, the first selection is strength” said elder Wang Mei

“In front of you there is a tool that can be hit to produce how big your strength, the light ball at the back will tell you the magnitude of your strength each”

The tool was similar to a large drum that the front could be hit by prospective disciples. The back of it was a crystal ball that detected a great deal of force from the person hitting the drum.

The crystal ball will produce a red color if the person's strength is small on a scale of 1-10, then orange on a scale of 11-100, yellow on a scale of 101-1,000, green on a scale of 1,001-10,000, blue scale 10,001-100,000, purple scale 100,001 and above.

“Alright, let's start from sequence number 1. The others lined up behind him” elder Wang Mei's orders.

Sunne and his friends who came later, got the sequence number 7 to 10, and Baihu who was given number 10 because it was considered the weakest among them by Sunne.

Number 1 a bald-headed boy prepared to exert his strength and then hit the drum hard.

THE DUGG!

The punch was quite loud hitting the drum, then the crystal ball emitted a yellow color. This meant that the boy's strength was on a scale of 101-1,000.

The number 2 sequence performed a punch, he was only able to pull out the weakest scale red color 1-10. The boy was grim and sad to learn his strength was so weak. The sequence number 3 is yellow, four red, five orange, six orange.

Now it was time for Sunne number 7 to punch, he prepared and then hit the drum with the power of his master realm pinnacle

DUGGGS!

Colour green. The children's eyes glared at Sunne who looked proud as he currently had the highest score on a scale of 1,001-10,000. Sunne walked gallantly back to his row. Next Sunne friends number 8 is orange, 9 is yellow.

“Good, now the last number please forward” shouted elder Wang Mei calling Baihu.

Baihu nervously advanced forward, she thought hard of a way to hold back her strength. He was afraid that if hitting hard would make the drum break, if it touched him then he would not get away.

“What if I touch and exert strength while holding it while looking at the color of the ball” Baihu murmured in his heart still doubtful.

Seeing Baihu still in doubt, elder Wang Mei narrowed her eyes, “Let's not hesitate, hit it with all your might” Wang Mei shouted at him

Hearing a word from Wang Mei, Baihu looked at her then shook her head, “A... I don't dare” he said nervously

Wang Mei's face was visibly irritated by Baihu's attitude, “Quickly. If you don't want to hit. Then we will cross your name and not accept you” Wang Mei said in annoyance

Hearing the woman's cry Baihu became afraid of not being accepted as a sect disciple, he immediately rushed up to the drum and unhesitatingly struck it while holding back his strength.

BUMM!

The drum was destroyed because of his punch. All the eyes that were there were wide-eyed to see the drum being destroyed by Baihu's punch. Baihu was surprised then lowered her head, “Sorry, I accidentally broke it”

Elder Wang Mei's eyes twitched looking at the drum. “Maybe this tool is damaged because it has been used many times” murmured

“Guardian, bring another drum here!” elder Wang Mei's orders to those guards.

Then two guards brought a new drum to the place. The drum is actually quite heavy if lifted alone, so it takes the power of two people to lift and carry it.

“Alright, because the drum was broken. You can start back with this drum” elder Wang Mei said.

“Do I have to hit again?” tanya Baihu hesitated back.

Elder Wang Mei's face darkened to see Baihu who was hesitant again, “You want to be accepted as a student or not?” yells

Baihu was shocked by the shout, he then struck the drum for fear that he would not be accepted into being a sect disciple.

BUMM!

Although Baihu had also restrained his strength, the drum was still crushed by his punch. Baihu was nervous to see it, she was afraid of not being accepted and expelled for damaging the drum again. He lowered his head not daring to look at elder Wang Mei. “Maaf” says

All the eyes of the people there including the guards were shocked to see the drum being crushed back. Elder Wang Mei's head felt like breaking with it, his eyes twitched hard and felt almost willing to come out to see it.

“A...This boy” grunts annoyed

The other children including Sunne stared strangely at Baihu. They seemed to be annoyed as well because he was ruining those things.

Elder Wang Mei then adjusted her breathing to ease her emotions from being upset. She was trying to keep looking graceful as a dazzling young female elder.

“Number 10, what's your name?” wang Mei asked Baihu.

“My name Baihu” said Baihu stared at elder Wang Mei.

“Alright Baihu, because this force gauge drum is broken again. Then we will use the usual way. Give me your right hand!” elder Wang Mei's orders to Baihu

Baihu obeyed the order from elder Wang Mei, she immediately extended her right hand forward. Then elder Wang Mei also extended her right hand forward. The looks of their palms touching each other made Baihu's face turn red from feeling the softness from Wang Mei's palm.

“You can't imagine anything weird-odd” Wang Mei said after seeing Baihu's face turn red.

Hearing Wang Mei's words, Baihu lowered her head not daring to look at Wang Mei's eyes.

“Now exert your strength on your right palm as if to push me” continued elder Wang Mei.

“Baik” Baihu

Baihu then slowly exerted her strength and flowed on Wang Mei's right palm. Wang Mei's face shrunk to see Baihu seemed to be hesitating and was only exerting a little of his strength.

Wang Mei became angry, she felt slighted by Baihu because the boy did not exert all his strength. Wang Mei who was in the God realm felt confident Baihu's strength would be nothing more than a basic power or a master. So he asked her to bring out her full strength.

“You underestimated me, son? Take out all your strength” cried Wang Mei with a red face in annoyance and became angry.

Baihu who was only 15 years old and was afraid of not being accepted into being a sect disciple was shocked by Wang Mei's shout. He closed his eyes and exerted his maximum strength.

This time Wang Mei's face turned into a nettles, she had not expected Baihu's strength to have reached the Sacred Realm. If he did not hold back with the power of his God Realm, then his body would be pushed back by Baihu's strength and would make him feel ashamed.

Soon Wang Mei exerted the power of her God realm and pushed away Baihu's body.

DEGH!

Baihu was pushed back staggered and almost fell for it. The children laughed at the scene. They looked at Baihu who looked weak from being pushed by Wang Mei. However they were unaware of Wang Mei's dark face and cold sweat running down her nape. Wang Mei's hand also felt slightly kebabbed by Baihu's energy.

“Who is this kid?” wang Mei muttered investigating Baihu's face
