“What, targeted by the Zhao family? How come none of us heard about this?”
The other Inner Sect Disciples gathered around, clearly very curious about this.
“Heh, how could such a thing be spread casually? Originally, I was the one responsible for supervising the second round, and someone told me to turn a blind eye at that time.”
“The backer behind this person has a great background, and since he was arranged by the Zhao family, I naturally didn’t say much. Then yesterday, an Elder came and told me to be responsible for the first round of supervision, and the supervision for the second round was changed to someone else.”
The leading Inner Sect Disciple said, then lowered his voice.
“The Inner Sect Disciple responsible for the second round of Inner Sect assessment is Zhao Zheng, known as Blood-clothed!”
“What, it’s him? He’s famous for his strong combat power and ruthless methods. This kid is probably going to die a miserable death here.”
Hearing that it was Zhao Zheng, the few people present shook their heads, looking at Qin Xuan with pity, clearly thinking that Qin Xuan was certainly going to die.
“That’s why I said there’s no need to waste time on a dead person. Let’s look for other Genius Disciples.”
Hearing this person’s words, the others nodded and began to focus their attention on the other people.
Qin Xuan naturally didn't know about this. At this moment, he was just moving forward at his own pace.
Soon, Zhou Keli arrived at the Formation, looked at the few people who were still some distance away from him, and a hint of disdainful smile appeared in his eyes.
He had originally wanted to wait another year or two, to see if he could become a Personal Disciple of the Azure Green Sect after his cultivation became higher.
However, this time he heard that the Azure Green Sect would close its Sect for the next ten years, and there were also a large number of people he couldn't possibly find to enter the Azure Green Sect, so he could only choose to participate in this selection.
For him, these Disciples who participated in the assessment with him were simply not worth his attention.
They were all just a bunch of good-for-nothings. His true opponents were never those Inner Sect Disciples, but those Personal Disciples.
Those Personal Disciples who had not been recruited for ten years.
He wanted to challenge them!
Looking at the red sun in the sky, which was still some distance from setting, Zhou Keli smiled, and then walked into the Formation.
The surrounding light flashed, and Zhou Keli disappeared from his spot. At the same time, a faint, almost imperceptible crack appeared on the Formation.
“Hmph!”
Seeing that Zhou Keli had entered the Formation, Lu Peng and the other person's expressions immediately became extremely ugly.
Of course, they tried extremely hard to keep up with Zhou Keli, but what they didn't expect was that Zhou Keli, relying on his cultivation, always walked in front, suppressing them.
Therefore, even if they were very displeased with Zhou Keli, they could only stare helplessly.
After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Lu Peng finally arrived in front of the teleportation Formation.
He also turned his head to look behind him.
Looking at Qin Xuan, who was still walking steadily in the distance, a cold smile appeared on his lips.
It seemed he had worried too much. This person's strength was nothing more than this, not worth mentioning at all.
However, since this person dared to defy him, he still had to be eliminated.
Thinking of this, Lu Peng also walked into the teleportation Formation and disappeared from here.
As he left, another crack appeared on the teleportation Formation.
Time passed bit by bit, and more and more people began to walk into the teleportation Formation. By this time, the cracks on the teleportation Formation began to become clearer and clearer.
Everyone understood that this was specially set up by the Azure Green Sect. Once the number reached two thousand, this Formation would self-destruct!
When Qin Xuan walked to the Formation, the crack on the Formation had become very obvious.
Looking at this crack, Qin Xuan took a deep breath and stepped inside.
The surrounding white light flashed, and then Qin Xuan disappeared from his spot.
When the surrounding white light gradually dispersed, Qin Xuan could see clearly that he had arrived in a huge square.
Qin Xuan's gaze swept around, but he didn't see the shadow of the Azure Green Sect, only a few Inner Sect Disciples wearing Azure Green Sect uniforms guarding there.
Seeing Qin Xuan walk out of the Formation, these Inner Sect Disciples nodded at Qin Xuan, then handed him a Wood Rank with a number written on it.
“You should have passed the first round of assessment. It’s late tonight, so go choose a place to rest over there first. The second round of selection will begin here tomorrow.”
Listening to this, Qin Xuan nodded slightly, holding the Wood Rank and looking in the direction the person pointed.
Following that direction, beyond the square was a row of wooden houses.
It was clear that these wooden houses were temporarily built, specifically for this assessment.
He lowered his head and looked at the Wood Rank.
“Ninety-eight!”
This was the order of passing through the teleportation Formation. Evidently, the number on this Wood Rank was the order of passing through the teleportation Formation.
After Qin Xuan left, one of them rolled his eyes, casually found an excuse, and left the others.
He opened his qiankun ring and took out a scroll of a portrait from inside.
It was Qin Xuan’s portrait.
After confirming it was indeed Qin Xuan, he excitedly put away the portrait and walked straight to the other side of the square.
There, a Young Master in white robes stood with his hands behind his back, looking straight ahead, unblinking.
“Young Master Zhao Zheng, he has passed the assessment. He is number ninety-eight.”
Hearing this, the white-robed Young Master turned around, his eyes filled with sharp killing intent.
“Good, you’ve worked hard. These Spirit Stones are your hard work fee, but what happened here today…”
Zhao Zheng’s words were unfinished, but the Inner Sect Disciple naturally understood their meaning perfectly.
“Of course I understand. Young Master, rest assured, I know nothing about what happened today.”
Shaking the Spirit Stones in their hands, these people all grinned and turned to leave.
“Qin Xuan!”
“Dare to kill my Zhao family Disciple? Then I will make you pay the price!”
Saying this, Zhao Zheng clenched his fists tightly, wishing he could resolve Qin Xuan immediately.
...
Holding the Wood Rank, Qin Xuan arrived in front of the row of wooden houses, and someone quickly stopped him.
“Give me your token.”
After showing the Wood Rank in his hand to the other party, the person pointed to the wooden houses behind him.
“There are a total of one hundred rooms here. Only the first hundred are eligible to choose a room here. The first five hundred will have tents. After five hundred, you can only sleep outdoors.”
“You can choose your favorite room here. If it’s unoccupied, hang your Wood Rank on it. If someone is there, then it depends on your ability. If you can defeat that person, you can choose whether to exchange Wood Rank order with them.”
“A reminder, although the first two thousand are considered to have passed this stage, the higher your ranking, the more advantageous it will be in the next stage.”
After speaking, the Inner Sect Disciple gestured for Qin Xuan to choose a room.
“Does the Azure Green Sect allow Disciples to fight each other?”
Qin Xuan was a bit surprised, as some Sects strictly prohibited internal fighting among Disciples.
“Normally, internal fighting is forbidden, but at times like this, the Sect encourages Disciples to fight each other. This way, the Sect’s combat power can be better maintained.”
Because Qin Xuan was within the top hundred, he still had a chance to enter the Inner Sect, so this Inner Sect Disciple spoke very politely.
Listening to this, Qin Xuan nodded slightly, then took the Wood Rank and began to choose a room.
At this time, only two of the wooden houses here were unoccupied. Qin Xuan wasn't very picky, so he just chose one and walked in.
After choosing a room, he hung the Wood Rank outside the room, then sat cross-legged to the side and began to cultivate.
Time was precious.
Although he was confident in his combat power, his Realm was still somewhat lacking.
Not to mention, Zhou Keli’s cultivation had reached Di Xuan Realm fourth level, which would qualify him to be an Inner Sect Disciple in a Sect like Shindao Sect.
Thinking of this, Qin Xuan felt immense pressure.
He had to raise his cultivation as soon as possible.
As more and more people entered the camp, the last wooden house was quickly chosen, and the others could only choose to enter the tents.
At this time, the sky had begun to gradually darken.
When the sun finally set and the Formation self-destructed, the last few people who passed through the Formation were incredibly excited, as if they had survived a disaster.
“Senior Brother Fu, Senior Brother Zhao Zheng asked you to go over!”
Just then, several Inner Sect Disciples hurried to the camp and spoke to the Inner Sect Disciple guarding the camp.
“Senior Brother Zhao is looking for me? Okay, I’ll go right away.”
Zhao Zheng was the person sent by the Inner Sect to be responsible for this round of assessment, and he also had to follow Zhao Zheng’s arrangements.
“Don’t worry, we’ll be on duty tonight. There won’t be any problems.”
These Inner Sect Disciples said, then urged Senior Brother Fu to leave here.
After he left, these people guarded the gate of the camp, blocking the last two people who wanted to enter at the entrance.
“What are you doing? Why aren’t you letting us in?”
Blocked at the entrance by these Inner Sect Disciples, the two immediately became angry.
They had gone through so much trouble to crawl and roll into the Formation, and now they weren't being allowed in. How could they tolerate this?
Hearing this, these Inner Sect Disciples immediately sneered and snatched the tokens from their hands.
“Why? You tail-enders, wastes among wastes, are you even worthy of participating in the next round of assessment? You trash wastes shouldn’t even have the qualification for the next round of assessment!”
With their tokens snatched away, these people wanted to go in, but there was nothing they could do.
“You guys, send them back to Xuanlong City, let them return the way they came.”
These Inner Sect Disciples called others to send these people back to Xuanlong City.
After this selection of talents, the Azure Green Sect was going to close its Sect for ten years, so they weren't worried at all.
Besides, offending such wastes was no big deal.
After driving these two away, these people guarded the camp entrance, anxiously waiting for something.
At this time, the sun had set, and the sky had completely darkened.
Not long after, a Black-robed Person walked over.
This person had his face protected by a mask.
“Are the things ready?”
Hearing this, the Inner Sect Disciple hurriedly nodded, then stuffed the token to the other party.
“Once you’re inside, finish quickly, otherwise it’s easy to alarm the Elders and Senior Brothers responsible for patrolling.”
Hearing this, the Black-robed Person let out a strange cackle.
“Don’t worry, dealing with a junior is as simple as crushing an ant. I can guarantee that this Qin Xuan won’t live for more than an hour!”
