As more and more people appeared in the open space, the examiner finally walked out of the bungalow.
He glanced at the candidates outside and said without any emotion: "Those who have reported their names will come out and stand on my right side. Those who have not reported will be eliminated."
"Chen Qi." "Here." A beautiful girl in black outfit walked to the examiner's right hand side with a smile on her face.
"Zhu Da." "Arrived."
As the names were read out one after another, the remaining candidates became more and more nervous.
"Yueyue, do you think I can't do it?" Xiao Xue's fair forehead showed beads of sweat, she hugged Han Yue's arm and muttered: "If they hadn't restricted my strength, I wouldn't have been able to fight like this.
Embarrassing!"
"Alright, alright!" Han Yue touched Xiao Xue's head and wiped the sweat from his forehead. "Although we took advantage of the terrain, with a thousand sand soldiers almost as much as ten thousand sand soldiers,
If we fight to the death, we will not be disqualified."
Nie Yun on the side nodded and said: "I just listened to their chat. Some people were qualified because of the disadvantages of the terrain. A thousand soldiers, including himself, were all killed and only two or three thousand soldiers were killed."
"Xiao Xue." The examiner's voice had no emotion at all, but it made Xiao Xue feel that the sky suddenly became much brighter.
"Isn't it coming?" Nie Yun shrugged.
"Hehe, even though my strength is limited, I can still pass the level easily. I'm great!" Xiao Xue wiped away her previous hesitation and said with a smile. "I'll wait for you over there."
"Han Yue.", "Nie Yun." The examiner continued to read out the list expressionlessly.
"Hehe, we just happened to go together." Xiao Xue was stunned for a moment, and then she walked side by side to the right hand side of the master while holding Han Yue's hand with a smile.
...
"Others whose names are not reported will be eliminated." The examiner looked at the more than 20 figures below and said indifferently. "If you have no objections, you can leave."
At this time, most of the twenty-odd figures who were not chosen looked ashamed. Some even did not even achieve a one-to-one casualty ratio despite taking advantage of the terrain. Naturally, they had no objection to this.
"I have objections!" A young man in black stood up with an angry face: "I used a thousand sand soldiers to cause the enemy to lose nearly nine thousand sand soldiers when the terrain was disadvantageous. I don't think I should be punished.
disuse!"
"You used the lives of five hundred soldiers to lure the enemy into a trap, and successfully caused huge casualties to the enemy despite the terrain and numerical disadvantage. I can't say that you did anything wrong in this matter." The examiner said calmly.
.
"Then why was I eliminated!" The boy in black became even more angry. He was not wrong, and he even did well enough, so why was he eliminated!
"But this is not the way of our Yuelu Academy." The examiner just shook his head lightly and said: "The ways are different and we don't want to work together."
"You go back."
"Go back? You want me to go back? How long have I stayed up for this day? You sent me away today just because you said something different?" The boy in black became angrier as he spoke, and his handsome face became a little distorted: "What bullshit!
What a bullshit academy, it’s just a group of hypocrites who talk about benevolence, justice and morality!”
The examiner shook his head lightly and said, "It's different. It doesn't make sense with your mouth."

"If you want to stay here, then stay here."
No matter how helpless and unwilling he was, the young man in black finally turned around and left. Before leaving, he seemed to have gradually calmed down and left his last words.
"One day I will prove that your teachings are all bullshit."
This small episode did not change the tone of the examiner, and his demeanor remained as calm as ever: "The rest of you will follow me."
...
Under the leadership of the examiner, everyone continued walking along the path, and soon a seven-story square tower appeared in front of them.
"Use all methods to climb up. The higher you climb, the better." The examiner stood in front of the square tower and announced the content of the third test indifferently.
"This level also does not set any rigid standards. All your actions are within the scoring range."
Since the space inside the square tower is not particularly large, only ten people can go up at a time. If one person can't hold on, he can come out and let another one go in.
Generally speaking, Han Yue, Xiao Xue, and Nie Yun, who came from the same school, have connected student numbers, and will most likely be in the same batch of lists.
But the reality is that Han Yue, Xiao Xue happened to be in the first batch of lists, and Nie Yun was ranked alone in the eleventh place. He could only silently pray in his heart that a guy could not hold on and let him come up.
I don't know if Nie Yun's prayer had an effect. After a while, a figure rolled down in embarrassment.
Nie Yun helped him with some guilt, and walked into the square tower while the man thanked him.
"Huh?" As soon as he entered the tower gate, Nie Yun immediately clearly felt that this place was different from the outside. There was a strange pressure here. It felt like a pair of invisible hands pressing his body, which made Nie Yun feel very uncomfortable.
I feel uncomfortable. The further up I go, the more intense this all-pervasive pressure becomes.
Nie Yun scanned around for a week and found that most people, including Xiao Xue, were climbing hard between the second and third floors, but Han Yue was not seen.
Feeling the increasing pressure, Nie Yun couldn't help but feel a little worried. He knew that Han Yue looked quiet and indifferent on the surface and didn't care about anything, but in fact he was a very strong person.
people.
It's like Nie Yun's birthday is actually several months older than Han Yue's, and Han Yue still wants to save face by saying that her birthday is on the first day of the lunar new year, just like her sister. But she is really too good, so good that even Nie Yun
, I can only follow her steps closely to avoid being left behind, so I show a very indifferent look most of the time.
This kind of place can easily arouse Han Yue's competitive spirit. Nie Yun is really afraid that Han Yue will climb up regardless of the situation and will not give up until he reaches the top.
Thinking of this, Nie Yun couldn't help but quicken his pace and soon climbed to the second floor.
"Boom!" The sudden increase in pressure made Nie Yun's shoulders sink, and then he straightened up suddenly and moved steadily towards the third floor.
Soon Nie Yun surpassed the other candidates one after another. What Nie Yun didn't expect was that Xiao Xue, a rich lady who was barely able to complete the exercise and who kept shouting: "I am rich" all day long, was already walking away.
It's the third level, a place where even martial arts practitioners in the Reborn Realm will feel tremendous pressure.
Looking full of sweat, but
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Xiao Xue clenched her silver teeth and climbed up stubbornly step by step. Nie Yun paused slightly, fearing that it would affect her condition, so he took a slight detour and walked quickly to the third floor.
As soon as he stepped onto the third floor, the pressure suddenly rose again. The huge pressure even bent Nie Yun's knees. Nie Yun took a deep breath, and the energy in his body slowly circulated, and he slowly straightened up.
With just one glance, Nie Yun saw Han Yue, who was standing on the fourth floor stairs and slowly climbing to the fifth floor. At this time, Han Yue no longer had the indifferent and independent look on her snow-white face.
Beads of sweat had gathered on his face, his hair was slightly messy, and his steps were slightly trembling.
"Huh." Nie Yun breathed out. He had no intention of persuading his senior sister to give up if she couldn't stand it anymore. He knew that she wanted to be strong. So, he wanted to catch up now to prevent any accidents from happening because she wanted to be strong.
Nie Yun took another step forward, much faster than before on the third floor. Drops of sweat began to appear on Nie Yun's forehead. The sweat gradually gathered into lines and rolled down his face.
But Nie Yun didn't care at all. His energy circulated slightly to ensure that his eyes were not disturbed by sweat.
When we reached the last few steps before the fourth floor, the ground was almost covered with Nie Yun's sweat.
Nie Yun slowly raised his head and glanced at Han Yue, who was gradually climbing to the top of the fourth floor. There was a hint of softness in his eyes, and then he slowly but resolutely stepped onto the fourth floor.
"Push" As soon as he stepped onto the fourth floor, Nie Yun was half-knelt down by the huge pressure.
"Uh~ah!" Nie Yun roared lowly, the energy in his body was flowing crazily, and his body straightened up inch by inch until his whole body stood completely.
Nie Yun could no longer walk as steadily as before. His legs were shaking slightly as he took the first step... the second step... the third step...
As Nie Yun advanced step by step, not only his legs, but also his face, his hands, and his whole body began to tremble steadily. Sweat covered Nie Yun's eyes, making his vision blurry.
.
Yes, Nie Yun no longer had any extra energy to control the direction of the sweat. He only knew how to get closer to her step by step, and then...protect her.
"Plop!" Nie Yun was excited, and barely raised his trembling arms to wipe away the sweat on his eyes. He suddenly saw the scene in front of him clearly: Han Yue fell heavily to the floor, holding on tightly with a pair of jade hands.
Floor, struggling to stand up, and her current location...the fifth floor.
Nie Yun's eyes suddenly widened, and he didn't know where he got the strength. Although his legs were still trembling, his speed increased in vain, and he ran straight to the fifth floor.
The pressure of the fifth floor pressed heavily on Nie Yun's body, as if he was carrying a hill on his back, but Nie Yun didn't seem to feel it. His legs were steady, as if they were rooted on the floor. He bent slightly and hugged the princess.
Han Yue, who fell to the ground, said softly: "Senior sister, please don't show off, okay? Let's go down."
Han Yue was silent for a moment, looking at Nie Yun with complicated eyes, then raised her fair and delicate jade hand to gently wipe away the sweat on Nie Yun's face, her eyes gradually became soft, and she said softly: "Okay,
Let’s go down together.”
"But I don't have the strength anymore, you have to hold me!" Han Yue suddenly said with a playful smile.
