"Why are you here? When did you come up?"

Seeing Gao Yi on the high platform, Si Nian was in a bad mood. The joy of being the first to climb to the top was gone in an instant.

Gao Yi did not answer, but just looked at him coldly.

However, the disciple of Ziyang Mountain not far away smiled, stepped forward, and bowed slightly to Si Nian:

"Congratulations to this junior brother, I was the first to climb the ladder!"

His attitude was very friendly.

Although there are two stages of introductory assessment of Ziyang Mountain, according to previous years' experience, those who can rank among the top in the first stage will often lead the way in the second stage.

The first person to climb the ladder is basically a sure thing to enter the inner door.

Therefore, the Ziyang Mountain disciples who are responsible for receiving support on the platform are willing to show goodwill to these future fellow disciples.

Si Nian also knows this truth.

"This senior brother, I clearly saw this person fall down from the ladder just now, why is he here now?"

He couldn't help asking.

"Young brother doesn't know that this junior brother Gao is carrying the Ziyang Order, so he can be accepted directly by the sect without participating in the competition."

The disciple of Ziyang Mountain explained.

Si Nian:...

Ziyang Order?

The Ziyang Order, which was only issued once three thousand years ago, has almost been recycled by Ziyang Mountain, and each one is no less valuable than a nine-turn crystal scattered piece, which allows the token holder to enter the inner door directly?

Is Gao Yi the real father of Tiandao?

Why did another Ziyang Order appear?!

Si Nian felt sad and depressed, and felt that he had tried his best to win the first place, like a joke.

He was still complacent just now, and he had already obtained the pass to the inner gate of Ziyang Mountain!

‘It must have been given to him by Master Ziyang. Damn it, this guy’s protagonist halo is too outrageous! Why do you have the opportunity to go anywhere?’

Si Nian was so angry that she almost vomited blood.

"Since you have already had the Ziyang Order, just take it out directly, why are you going to climb the ladder?!"

He looked at Gao Yi and said authentically.

He is really angry.

You know, in order to target Gao Yi, he spent a lot of money to bribe those aristocratic families to interfere with each other at the expense of their assessment opportunities.

However, Gao Yi did not answer.

He just said coldly:

"Sinian."

"I'll wait for you in the second assessment."

"If you are a despicable villain, you will be just in line with my father-in-law!"

Then he turned around and left.

Looking at Gao Yi's departure back, Si Nian looked gloomy and his fists were about to be hard.

‘No… This guy’s halo is too strong to let him continue to grow!’

‘Otherwise, he will probably be more difficult to deal with than Qin Shou’s big devil in the end!’

‘He must be dealt with earlier!’

‘Only by solving him can I resolve the troubles and find a way to hold Qin Shou’s thigh and practice wholeheartedly. Then, after Qin Shou completely turned black, he was implicated by the plot, and he got the opportunity to finally ascend to the immortal from the Demon Emperor...’

Si Nian thought to himself.

‘Is the second assessment…’

‘If you remember correctly, the plot of the Magic Sect’s big fuss in the Ziyang Ceremony will be in the second assessment, and the second opportunity in the novel is also…’

‘Danger and opportunity coexist…’

‘Maybe...this is an opportunity to kill two birds with one stone!’

As if he had remembered something, Si Nian narrowed his eyes slightly, his eyes flashing.

"This junior brother, please leave your name on the pass mark as soon as possible."

The reminder from the disciple of Ziyang Mountain interrupted his thoughts.

Si Nian took a few breaths, calmed down his depression, picked up the carving knife handed over by the disciples of Ziyang Mountain, and carved his name on it.

...

As Si Nian was the first to reach the top, more seekers passed the level and engraved their names on the stone tablet.

Three days passed in a flash.

The Ladder of the Heaven is worthy of being one of the most difficult assessments in the Ziyang Mountain ceremony. More than 5 million seekers, less than 8,000 people finally succeeded in the top.

Those who seek the Tao each showed their magical powers, and many of them were remembered by the top leaders of Ziyang Mountain in the Immortal Palace.

However, Qin Shou no longer paid attention to the assessment after Si Nian reached the top.

He doesn't know the rest anyway.

At least... I don't know the face.

However, after the first assessment results came out, he immediately obtained the pass list through the identity of the emcee of the Grand Ceremony.

He doesn't know the face, but he knows the name.

Qin Shou glanced briefly and quickly recognized many characters who shone brightly in the novel.

Of course, he got the first pass list and naturally not just looking for the names of these people, but to confirm something else...

In the original and fantasy, Ziyang Mountain's disciple-taking ceremony was not calm.

In the novel plot, the demon sect that is eyeing will cause trouble in the second assessment, resulting in heavy casualties and injuries among the seekers who participated in the second assessment. Even the Lord of Lingwu Zhenjun, the Lord of Zangjian Peak, was directly seriously injured.

The way to cause trouble in the Demon Sect is to secretly bury the spy from the Demon Sect during the first assessment.

In the second assessment stage, the "secret realm competition", these spies from the demon sect and spies in the mountain cooperated with each other and secretly opened a passage to the depths of the spiritual world, attracting the crazy spiritual creatures in the depths of the spiritual world, and launching a massacre in the secret realm.

In the original work, if the protagonist Gaoyi had not exploded and closed the secret realm channel, otherwise, the entire secret realm would have been penetrated by the spiritual creatures, which would have attracted even more terrifying spiritual existences, and might even be unable to confront even the true master of the God Transformation...

Of course, Gao Yi is not there in Fan Renwen, and the person who does this is Si Nian.

By the way, the original work and fan-written conspiracy of the Demon Sect was also involved in the original work "Qin Shou", and it was also one of the masterminds, with the purpose of sacrificing the essence and blood of the seeker and improving his magic skills.

However, after Qin Shou traveled through time, because he wanted to fight against the seal in his body, he did not turn black like in the novel, so this thing was gone.

Now, I have never participated, and the spy of the Demon Sect in Ziyang Mountain was also severely injured a few days ago, and news of the appearance of Ziyang Taoist Lord circulating in the mountain gate.

Qin Shou guessed that this time the Demon Sect would not make trouble like in the novel.

However, when his eyes swept through the clearance list one by one, and when he saw the names of the spies of the Demon Sect who still had some impression, his brows gradually frowned:

‘Hmm? They are still there?’

‘So that…the Demon Sect is still planning to take action in the ceremony…’

'This time I am not the mastermind, and Yin Liqing is also deceived by me to be suspicious and sensitive, and there is no time to cause trouble. Could the spies in the Demon Sect be the grandfather?'

‘The Demon Sect is so persistent, maybe they are making a big fuss, and their real purpose is not as simple as in the novel…’

‘Okay…’
Chapter completed!
