Chapter 19

The mysterious symbols on the back of the silver mirror began to pulsate, very quickly. With each pulse of light, the light appearing on the silver mirror would become a bit brighter, enveloping Jiang Junming. This light was subtly different from the divine power light released by all the young men before, being more pure. There was not a trace of impurity in the light, it was the purest light. Because of its purity, it seemed sacred. Jiang Junming, enveloped in the light, also felt a sense of sanctity.

Little Price's pupils suddenly narrowed, staring in shock at the divine power light emanating from Jiang Junming. That pure aura, Little Price could feel it, was even more pure than the divine power he himself had released. The light was also more pure, bright, and steady. Moreover, that light was not something that could be released through skill. The pure and sacred feeling made Little Price unable to understand how Jiang Junming could release such divine power.

The arrogant expression on Little Price's face turned to surprise and confusion. Jiang Junming's prayer was clumsy, completely lacking in skill, so how could he release such powerful and pure divine power? In an instant, it seemed as if everything he had known before was overturned. Little Price, who had always been proud of his skill in releasing divine power, looked at Jiang Junming in a daze, unable to understand how this poor boy, who couldn't even pray fluently, could be so favored by a god.

Fat Chados and skinny Aired's eyes almost popped out of their sockets from shock at Jiang Junming's performance.

Was this the divine power released by the young man sent by the Church of Care? Such pure light, if not for seeing it with their own eyes, if not for it happening right in front of them, they would have thought it was a high-ranking priest from some church releasing divine power. No! Even a regular church priest could not release such pure divine power. Although it wasn't very powerful, that pure light seemed to mock everyone.

The crowd surrounding them was deathly silent, everyone's eyes wide as if they were gongs. No one was talking; Jiang Junming's performance, that pure divine power, had frightened everyone.

The priests, the young men being tested, and the onlookers were all silent, only Jiang Junming was releasing divine power, steady and pure.

After a while, the believer from the Church of Care came to his senses from the shock. He felt that the divine power emanating from Jiang Junming was the pure divine power of the Goddess of Care, though weak, it was incredibly pure. This was a miracle, it could only be a miracle! The believer knelt down, tears in his eyes, praying devoutly.

When they discovered that Jiang Junming could perfectly receive divine power, the three church priests had been keeping a close eye on him. As long as Jiang Junming could release divine power, even a little, the three priests would not hesitate to recruit him.

Perfect, that young man named Junming had perfectly received the divine power. As for releasing divine power, it was just a skill, something he could continue to learn after entering the church academy.

However, none of the priests had expected this situation to occur. Indeed, releasing divine power was a skill, but what Jiang Junming had shown was absolutely not just a matter of skill! Absolutely not! As a priest, if one couldn't understand what was happening to Jiang Junming, they must have converted to the dark and evil gods.

This was a miracle, there was no other explanation.

Every priest knew how much divine power the largest holy emblem in the cathedral of the Church of Light and Justice could release. They also knew how much the crude silver mirror could amplify. That young man had released such dense divine power under these conditions, and it was the purest divine power!

None of the priests knew if the bishop could release such divine power, but they knew they couldn't. Looking at Jiang Junming, their eyes burned with passion. If they could bring this young man back to the church and become his teacher... even if they couldn't teach him, their contribution to the church would be...

They didn't dare to think further, as there were other church priests around.

The priest from the Church of Dawn immediately turned and left, so anxious that he stumbled on a small stone and almost fell. The priest from the Church of Dawn held a low position in the church and could not make any promises, so he had to report this to the bishop. He left hurriedly, not even checking if his foot was injured.

The priest from the Church of Justice called over a church believer and whispered a few words. Then, while straightening his clothes to look more solemn and sacred, he said to Jiang Junming in a deep voice, "Stop releasing divine power, Junming, you've passed."

After saying this, the priest from the Church of Justice walked up to Jiang Junming, stood beside him, and smiled kindly, saying, "Junming, would you like to join the Church of Justice and Fairness?"

Seeing Jiang Junming stop praying and look at him in confusion, the priest from the Church of Justice thought, this child must be overjoyed. The largest church in Moonlight City was the Church of Justice and Fairness, and many people tried every possible way to join the Church of Justice but couldn't. Now, such a great opportunity was right in front of him. Even an adult might not be able to handle such a shock.

Looking at Jiang Junming's face, the priest from the Church of Justice extended his right hand, gently placed it on Jiang Junming's head, and gently stroked his hair, trying to make his voice sound more kind and gentle, saying, "The Goddess of Care is a servant of the God of Justice, their divine powers are interconnected. Join our church, and believe in the 'Source of Justice,' true justice and fairness."

When Fat Chados and skinny Aired heard the words of the priest from the Church of Justice and Fairness, Mogerem, their eyes almost burst with jealousy! Joining the Church of Justice and Fairness? This was a dream that Chados and Aired could only dream of. Their families had spent a lot of money, and the best they could hope for was to enter the church academy to polish their credentials, and then spend more money to find a small church to serve as a priest. As for becoming a priest in the Church of Justice and Fairness, they didn't even dare to dream about it. Neither Fat Chados nor skinny Aired, nor their wealthy fathers, dared to dream about it.

But how could that poor boy, that poor boy named Junming, have such good luck? At this moment, Fat Chados and skinny Aired completely forgot about Jiang Junming's performance in receiving and releasing divine power, their minds clouded by greed and jealousy.
