“At that time, she had a high cultivation and was skillful… I didn’t expect her to be an alchemist as well… Moreover, her alchemy attainment is as good as her martial skills.”
As Teacher Mo looked at Lou Qianxue, a strange light flashed past his eyes.
Soon, all the students finished introducing themselves.
Teacher Mo nodded and said, “Very good. I know all your names and background. Now, I want to understand your abilities.”
As he spoke, he walked toward the podium. “Everyone, follow me.”
All the students glanced at one another. They hurriedly got up and followed Teacher Mo out.
“Where are we going?
“I don’t know either.”
They curiously walked behind their teacher.
On the way, many students greeted Teacher Mo.
When these students saw the group following Teacher Mo, they softly said, “Looks like Teacher Mo is bringing the new students to that place to test their abilities!”
“I wonder if any extremely talented person will emerge in this batch of new students… Let’s follow them and see.”
“Okay!”
A group of people tagged along with the new students.
The group of new students felt flustered at this sight.
“Why are so many senior brothers and senior sisters following us?”
“Could it be that Teacher Mo wants us to do something impressive?”
As they guessed…
“We’ve arrived.”
Teacher Mo calmly said.
“Huh?” All the new students froze for a while. They then followed Teacher Mo’s gaze and looked in front.
A black tower stood tall in front of them.
“This is the trial tower!”
“The trial tower can test your abilities. As for which level you can climb to, it will depend on yourselves.”
All the new students suddenly came to a realization.
“I see. Teacher Mo wants us to get assessed at the trial tower.”
“I have heard of an extraordinary trial tower in the Imperial academy. So it’s this tower!”
Each and every one of the cultivators who could enter the Imperial academy was a genius. When they understood what they had to do, they looked at the tall tower with raging eyes, eager to give it a try.
“I must climb to the highest place in the trial tower and prove myself to everyone!”
“Teacher Mo, don’t worry. We’ll definitely climb to the top of the tower. We won’t shame you!”
“Climb to the top of the tower!”
“Climb to the top of the tower!”
The new students agitatedly shouted.
Whoosh!
The senior students who had followed the new students all the way to watch them could not help themselves from scoffing.
“They actually want to climb to the top of the tower… Are they dreaming?”
“Too naive!”
“Don’t they know that even Xu Tailang, who’s ranked first in the Imperial academy’s hall of fame, could only climb to the seventh level?”
“Don’t think too much about it! Which batch of new students is not arrogant? Anyway, the trial tower will teach them to recognize their own abilities.”
“Just watch. This batch will definitely be the same as the batches in previous years. All of them will be out in less than half an hour!”
As everyone talked…
“Open— the tower!” Teacher Mo shouted.
At the next moment.
Boom!
The door of the trial tower slowly opened.
“Alright, all of you, enter. I hope you can stay longer inside. If you really can’t persist, you can shout to give up on the trial and come out.
“Besides this, you’re not allowed to stay beyond half an hour on any level. If you exceed the time, you’ll automatically be ejected from the tower.”
Under Teacher Mo’s repeated guidance, the group of new students entered the black tower with confidence.
Just when they entered…
Boom!
The door of the tower closed.
At the same time,
Numerous light spots lit up on the first level of the external part of the trial tower.
“Quickly, look!”
One by one, the senior students in the vicinity stared at those spots of light.
“Every spot of light represents one person. Let’s see where these spots of light can go to… And also, who can go the furthest amongst them!”
