Eternal Thief-Chapter 677 Life History Of ‘White’

Ace, without looking back, kept going up as the pressure on him increased, but it posed little challenge to him.

At this moment, he was already about to step onto the 500th step, and from the 501st step, level two would begin the test of willpower, which should be about the soul.

Ace suddenly stopped on the 500th step as he looked behind and saw the other participants were far behind. The furthest participant was only climbing on the 34th step, and it was a pale skin devil youth who was looking at him with bloodshot eyes.

Ace snickered softly before he turned around and took another step. The moment he stepped on the 501st step, Ace suddenly felt a faint soul force attacking his mind.

However, this soul force wasn't even enough to hurt his skin, much less his mind, so he walked ahead without caring about the soul force. His speed neither increased nor decreased.

But his actions clearly alarmed those invigilators standing above the sky.

The gray-winged devil's gray eyes shone in dark hue as he said with great interest, "He's still not using any Qi and climbing only using pure physical prowess, and the soul force also didn't seem to be affecting him. Is it even possible for a human to have such a physique? How about we pull his records and see why he's so special and why he appeared only now?"

Ace's continuous climbing forward, even under the soul force, finally drew their curiosity, especially the elders from the top three races. They had never seen a human with pure physical strength, much less with a powerful soul as well.

Even among them, these kinds of juniors could only appear once every thousand years and not in the mortal realm.

Joseph, the only human among them, was also alarmed by Ace's astonishing performance, 'I need to get him to join the human sector!' He thought gravely before looking at the devil and said meaningfully, "Elder Clarence, don't tell me you are planning on inviting a human into your Devil sector?"

Clarence glanced at him before he smiled, revealing his sharp teeth, "As long as he's genius, his race doesn't matter. Everyone is equal in the union. It's the ironclad rule of the union, do you forget? Now should we look at information?"

"You wily bastard! You dare to bring out rules when you guys are the narrowest-minded among all the races?" Willie snapped instantly.

Clarence ignored him, looking at the demon elder and a red-haired hunter elder meaningfully. Those two knew what he was asking for, so they nodded.

"I agree to see his records." The demon elder nodded.

"He's quite interesting. Let's see where he was hiding all these years. I agree with Elder Clarence as well." The hunter snickered.

"What about you guys?" Clarence looked at the five women with a faint smile.

Including Jayden, the female devil, two huntresses, and a wise elf. All nodded in agreement as they were also interested in Ace's past.

Joseph and Willie's expressions fell the moment everyone agreed with Clarence's demand. They were all treating them like the wind.

Joseph didn't want them to see Ace's past because they might use this information to draw him into their ranks or even use his weakness to threaten him.

It had happened in the past, but it was the first time with the humans since they had never threatened other races' positions in the union.

However, Ace was clearly talented, and he might grow up to become a powerful figure in the union and earn resources for humans. But if these guys managed to snatch him from them, it would be a huge blow to humans.

But Joseph couldn't do a thing because he knew these kinds of schemes were normal in the union, and no one did anything to keep a challenging environment.

Everyone was free to make their decision. It was another case of the 'free decision' that could be forced as long as it wasn't found out it was allowed!

That's probably why the three races wanted to see Ace's past to discover his weakness and might use it to draw him into their entourage. All they needed to do was gather majority votes to see his information in the mortal domain.

They can only do it right now when Ace has yet to pass the trial, and there won't be any other chance the moment he joins the true union because his information will be sealed, and only the union master-level figure can see it.

As for how they could see someone's entire life history, it was because of the gray identity tokens. When someone joined the ranks of an official union member, they were given an identity token which was proof of an official union member's identity.

However, it had another function: to record the person's life experience. Even if they put it in the storage ring, it could still record it without any restriction since those storage ring grades were only 1-star!

It was done because an official union member could become a true union member. Those tokens can tell their entire life story and eliminate any chances of someone else using others' identities to sneak into the true union.

But in the history of the union, this never happened, so no one was on guard against someone try sneaking into the union. It was impossible since the union had a full grasp over the power level of the mortal realm, and any anomaly could instantly be noticed by a massive formation.

Furthermore, the union never stopped anyone from joining their ranks as long as they could pass the trial, so there wasn't any reason to take such a risk and get killed with their loved ones.

So, Ace being someone else, never even occurred to these invigilators.

However, this token could reveal all the secrets of the genius as well, including their personalities, without even them knowing. But no one cared about the feelings or privacy of someone from the mortal realm.

So, after getting eight votes, Clarence was free to check Ace's personal history from his token. He didn't delay, and a small crystal cube appeared in his hand. He poured his Qi before it shimmered in dark light.

He then moved the cube toward Ace, who was on the 558th stairstep, and instantly an impassive voice rang from the cube.

"Participant #4,349, Name: White (Human), Bone Age: 27"

Clarence's lips curled up as he spoke, "We want to see Participant White's token history in the mortal domain."

"Bunch of foxes!" Willie cursed as he knew it was too late, while Joseph remained silent and kept looking at those eight elders with cold eyes.

"Permission approved!" The same impassive voice rang in affirmation.

The very next moment, the crystal cube shimmered brightly before a projection started to materialize on the cube. Everyone looked at the projection attentively, even Willie and Joseph.

However, what they saw left everyone speechless. Because it didn't start from 'White's' birth but from how he looked the same as he was now and was walking out of a building.

The building's name was the 'Official Union Registration Center.'

"Don't tell me he just became an Official from Officer?" Clarence couldn't help but exclaim with a frown.

They knew the token was only given to official union members, not below-rank ones.

Furthermore, as they watched in fast-forward, they were completely speechless because they saw 'White' going into another building and exchanging his union merit for a soul cultivation technique available for official union members.

Afterward, the entire thing was like an absurd dream because they saw White leave the city and found a place in a forest and started cultivating, and in two hours, he opened his first gate and appeared extremely thrilled.

"So easy?" They heard his thrilling voice, and those invigilators' lips spasmed.

One day later, he opened the second soul gate, and two days later, he opened the third gate, and on the seventh day after he started to cultivate, he opened his fourth soul gate.

"So, this is a path to becoming immortal? How easy!" He laughed like crazy as he continued to cultivate it like he was addicted to it.

The entire thing lasted for only fifteen minutes because White time as an official member was only one month before he appeared here to take the trial!

Everyone was staring at the motionless projection in a stupor since they watched it in full fast-forward, but they spotted everything like it was in slow motion.

It had never happened before that a Union Officer had become an Official Union Member at such a young age and then, in a month, became a Nine Gates cultivator and came here to take the test.

Normally the newly appointed union member would settle down in the city and then have descended who was born with an official status and then cultivate them to become a true union member.

Joseph guffawed at this moment, "Hahaha… a one in a ten millennia genius has appeared amidst our humans!"
