Five days later, the quarterly exam officially began.
From midnight to noon, the disciples conduct Taoism and scripture examinations in the classroom.
Ji Chaoyun is diligent and eager to learn, and he has long been familiar with the Taoist scriptures that need to be read through. This assessment is not difficult for him. After the literary test, everyone took a short rest and went to Yanjianping for the secret realm assessment.
In the past, the area that was divided into practice swordsmanship has now been replaced by a series of teleportation circles.
The assessment time has not yet come, and the teleportation circle has not yet been opened, but many disciples waiting for the assessment have gathered on Yanjianping.
"I've never heard of the last two policy topics!"
"If I had known it earlier, I would have endorsed it well, and now I have passed the exam."
"What are you guys, at least I'm at the bottom, I don't have a lot of meetings."
…
The disciples were mourning all over the place, but Ye Chenxing looked triumphant and said in a low voice, "Chaoyun, you are too good, you have passed more than half of the essay questions, and I will definitely have no problem with this assessment."
Ji Chaoyun smiled: "It just happened to be."
"What a coincidence, this is strength." Ye Chenxing hooked Ji Chaoyun's shoulder and said with a smile, "Tomorrow, the end of the quarterly exam will be a rest, let's go to the lower realm to have a good day, how about it?"
"This..." Ji Chaoyun was about to answer when he suddenly felt a chill rise from his back.
He raised his head, and Feng Qi walked quickly from the front, staring at them with piercing eyes.
Ye Chenxing let go of Ji Chaoyun decisively, and said quickly: "I suddenly remembered that Senior Brother Chen, who is at the Xuanzi level, has something to do with me, so I will go first!"
Beiran: "Wait, I'll go too!"
"You wait—" Before Ji Chaoyun could speak, the two of them ran so fast that they soon disappeared.
He turned his head hard, Feng Qi raised his brows slightly, and a smile called victory flashed in his eyes.
"What are you asking me for?" Ji Chaoyun asked in the pine forest beside Yanjianping.
Feng Qi took a half step forward, lowered his head, and said to Ji Chaoyun in a low voice, "I'll give you a chance at the end, really don't read the secret book I gave you? The secret realm trial is not as easy as you think."
"dont see."
Feng Qi "tsk": "Stubborn."
Although he said that, there was no anger on his face. Feng Qi lowered his eyes to look at the person who was close at hand, unable to hold back, he raised his hand and squeezed his face: "I don't even give you a chance to help you, really... why is your face so hot?"
Ji Chaoyun tilted his head to avoid: "Don't do anything."
Ji Chaoyun's body temperature is lower than that of normal people, even if there is some abnormal warm touch on his body, it is much lower than that of ordinary people. The temperature change was not obvious, but it was still keenly noticed by Feng Qi.
Feng Qi rubbed his fingertips and said with a smile, "I'm too close to you, shy?"
"Boring… "
In the distance, Kaiyang Xianjun, who is in charge of supervision, has arrived, which means that the assessment will begin. Ji Chaoyun turned to leave.
"Wait, I haven't finished speaking yet." Feng Qi raised his hand and pressed it on Ji Chaoyun's shoulder, but the latter avoided him. But at this moment, the gleam of light flashed by Feng Qi's fingertips had disappeared into Ji Chaoyun's bun, but this spiritual power was too weak, so the latter did not notice it.
Feng Qi restrained his smile and said seriously: "There are many traps in the secret realm. Once you fall into them, it will be difficult to escape, and you will be easily injured. You have to be careful."
Seeing that he was really kind, Ji Chaoyun nodded: "Thank you, I see."
Ji Chaoyun returned to Yanjianping, Kaiyang Xianjun announced the beginning of the assessment, and everyone was divided into queues and entered the secret realm at the same time.
He opened his eyes again and was teleported into a stone forest.
A pile of craggy stone pillars and peaks stood in front of them, and the three of them looked at each other and stepped into it carefully.
The so-called stone man formation is naturally not as simple as defeating a stone man. There are thousands of strange stones in this stone forest, which are unpredictable and easy to get lost, and the real stone man is hidden between the virtual and the real.
There was silence in the stone forest, Ji Chaoyun suddenly stepped on a loose slate, and he was shocked: "Be careful!"
He pulled the two of them back a few steps, and the area he stepped on fell deeply to the ground the next second, the gravel rolled down, and then was blown to pieces by the hidden weapon mechanism in the deep pit.
Ye Chenxing looked down at the deep pit and swallowed: "This, this secret realm... shouldn't be really dead, right?"
Ji Chaoyun: "... Be careful."
As Feng Qi said, there are many traps in this stone forest. The three of them avoided the traps while looking for the stone man, and the progress was extremely slow.
Ji Chaoyun stopped, raised his hand to touch his forehead, and the unusual heat made him frown slightly. At the same time, another imperceptible dry heat was faintly emitting from the body.
... not so coincidental.
"Chaoyun, what's the matter with you, are you not feeling well?" Ye Chenxing asked.
Ji Chaoyun shook his head: "It's okay."
He looked up at the mid-air, hanging on a light screen above their heads, the numbers were still seven.
This represents the seventeen teams that entered the Stone Man formation this time.
This place is not a real secret realm. Only by breaking the Stone Man formation will it be sent to the real place of assessment. And the order of breaking the stone formation is the order of entering the secret realm.
There are a total of 1,500 evil spirits in the secret realm, and one point is earned for each monster defeated. The defeated monster will not be reborn, that is to say, the later they enter the secret realm, the more unfavorable the situation will be.
If Ji Chaoyun's performance in this assessment falls to the bottom five of the yellow character level, he will be kicked out of the academy.
The two companions also noticed Ji Chaoyun's worries, and Bei Ran asked, "Brother Ji, what should I do now?"
Ji Chaoyun pondered for a moment and said, "You go to Shifeng and act according to the plan."
"good."
The two nodded and jumped to the top of the two stone peaks, one east and one west. Ji Chaoyun took out a few talismans from his arms. He chanted the mantra softly in his mouth, raised his hand, and several talismans flew out and stuck to the center of the stone wall.
"Broken!" Ji Chaoyun quickly retreated, and almost at the same time, several pinnacles in front of him exploded.
As he stepped back, he continued to raise the talisman paper from his sleeve, and in a blink of an eye, he blew up the small area he was currently in. The rocks in the stone forest splashed, and in the rolling dust waves, there was a very unusual movement.
"Chaoyun, I saw it, northwest direction!"
Ye Chenxing shouted loudly, and the three of them flew towards the northwest at the same time. After the billowing dust and smoke dissipated, the three of them had surrounded a stone pillar. The originally dead stone pillar suddenly twisted and changed, and the rugged stone wall continued to grow and rise, eventually forming a tall stone man.
At the same time, the numbers on the light screen above finally changed.
Pick up.
Two teams have already entered the secret realm first.
Ji Chaoyun only glanced at the number and didn't care.
The secret realm assessment was conducted simultaneously by the two levels of Xuanhuang and Huang, and more than half of them were not entering the secret realm for the first time, so the speed of breaking the formation was naturally faster than theirs.
He glanced at the two companions beside him, nodded to each other, and the three of them raised their swords and charged towards the stone man at the same time.
Outside the secret area, some high-level disciples were surrounded on Yanjianping.
Every assessment day, the academy will take a day off as a group. However, most of the disciples only cared about Qingxiu in the past, and when it was Xiu Mu's turn, they had nowhere to go, so they could only come to watch the battle and join in the fun.
On Yanjianping, several light mirrors floated in the air in a semi-arc shape, projecting the situation around the secret realm. At this moment, only two teams have entered the secret realm, and they are all yellow-character disciples.
In the distance, Feng Qi leaned on the branch, looking at the mirrors on Yanjianping from a distance, frowning slightly.
For some reason, he has been feeling a little uneasy today, but he can't tell where the uneasy comes from.
Nothing is going to happen, right
Feng Qi leaned angrily on the branch and closed his eyes, and a voice sounded from under the tree: "I guessed that His Royal Highness Feng Er would come, why, can't you rest assured?"
Feng Qi opened his eyes and said angrily, "Song Zhifei, what are you doing here if you don't accompany Jiang Cheng to take the exam?"
Song Zhifei said: "Jiangcheng is sick today, and he is not participating in the examination."
Feng Qi has been very worried today, and he really didn't notice whether Jiang Cheng was here or not. He snorted coldly and said, "He doesn't want to see Ji Chaoyun."
Song Zhifei smiled without saying a word, and added, "I really like that little dragon's temperament, and it's no wonder His Highness cares so much about him, but it's a pity that he doesn't seem to understand His Highness's deep meaning."
"Deep meaning?" Feng Qi's eyes moved slightly and asked, "What do you think I mean?"
Song Zhifei: "It doesn't matter how I feel, what matters is whether His Highness is aware of his feelings."
Feng Qi's breathing stagnated for a while, and his heart seemed to be tapped by something, and those subtle emotions that were secret and hidden were revealed to the sky without warning.
Feng Qi did not refute, nor did he show any strangeness. He stared at the person under the tree for a long time, and said with a little deep meaning: "Song Zhifei, you really deserve to be the first disciple in the academy, a mortal who has soared to the heavenly level. Regardless of your cultivation level, when it comes to doing things for others, Jiangcheng far worse than you."
"Thank you, Your Highness, for your praise." Song Zhifei said, "With all that said, I'll go back to supervise the test first."
He turned around to leave, and suddenly heard Feng Qi speak softly: "I heard that Jiangcheng will go back to inherit the position of the island owner after this school year. If you have nowhere to go then, welcome to Dengyun Tower."
Song Zhifei paused, and said politely and politely, "Everything is fine now in the Inspection Hall, thank you Your Highness for your kindness."
Feng Qi snorted coldly, without saying anything, and leaned back against the tree trunk again.
In the stone forest, Ji Chaoyun and his party are still dealing with the stone people.
The stone people who were formally assessed were several times stronger than those they had encountered before. Even though the three of them cooperated tacitly, the challenge was still difficult. With the loss of spiritual power, Ji Chaoyun's discomfort became clearer, and even his reaction speed was much slower.
"Chaoyun, be careful!" Ye Chenxing shouted, Ji Chaoyun hadn't reacted, and suddenly saw a figure rushing towards him.
Ye Chenxing stood in front of Ji Chaoyun, and was punched by the stone man in the back. Ye Chenxing snorted, and the two of them staggered and fell backwards, rolling into a piece of gravel.
Ji Chaoyun's side face was slashed with blood by a stone, but he didn't care about it, he quickly threw out two talismans to restrain the stone man's movements, and helped Ye Chenxing: "How are you?"
Ye Chenxing's face was pale, and he scolded silently. After a while, he made a sound: "...This thing is too ruthless, fortunately I can resist it."
"Brother Ji!" Bei Ran shouted loudly in the distance, "We can't go on like this, what should we do?!"
The two of them looked at the light screen above their heads at the same time, and the number on it had changed to eight.
The teams participating in the assessment this time are the eighth team at the Xuan character level and the ninth team at the yellow character level, that is to say, at least one team of yellow character disciples has entered the secret realm.
"There must be other ways..." Ji Chaoyun whispered.
How did Feng Qi do it in the initial assessment
Freshmen are required to participate in the assessment for three months after entering the school. Feng Qi entered the school late, and it was less than a month before the quarterly test. Immortal Venerable originally intended to let him suspend for a few months, but Feng Qi was arrogant and arrogant at that time, and resolutely decided to participate in the current test, and easily won the first place in the secret realm martial arts test.
Ji Chaoyun originally thought that he might have forcibly made a breakthrough by virtue of his advanced cultivation. But not long ago, Feng Qi wanted to tell him the secret of the stone formation.
Is there really another solution
The three of them were deadlocked for a moment, and the number of the light screen above their heads gradually decreased, and the speed was getting faster and faster: Qi, Lu, Wu, Si, San...
Only three teams remain.
The physical discomfort and the urgency of time made Ji Chaoyun's thoughts very clear. He calmed down and looked around. In the past three months, he has thoroughly studied the stone man. If there is another solution, it can only be in this stone forest.
There are strange rocks in the stone forest, the road is rough and difficult to walk, and there are countless traps hidden...
"There are many traps in the secret realm. Once you fall into them, it is difficult to escape, and you are easily injured. You have to be careful."
Ji Chaoyun suddenly remembered what Feng Qi said to him before entering the secret realm.
trap.
As if a beam of light broke through the heavy clouds and suddenly became bright, Ji Chaoyun said loudly: "It's a trap! Lead it into the trap, use the terrain to block it, and trigger the hidden weapon mechanism to deal with it!"
After a stick of incense, the numbers on the light screen above the stone forest returned from three to zero, and the last three teams entered the secret realm at the same time.
The contiguous tall fir trees hide the sky and the sun, and the moisture in the forest makes up for it, making it extremely cold.
A ray of light lit up from the forest, Ji Chaoyun stepped out of the teleportation formation, and a fine layer of sweat appeared on his forehead. In the distance, the water was gurgling, and a meandering river ran through the forest. Ji Chaoyun walked over slowly, knelt on the ground, and washed his face with the water.
Upon closer inspection, his fingers were trembling imperceptibly.
Ji Chaoyun wiped the water droplets from his face, raised his hand and unfolded a light screen.
On the light screen, there are two columns of scoreboards, which record the current performance rankings of the Xuanzi rank and the yellow character rank respectively. The number one disciple of the yellow character class now has seven points.
And the three teams that finally entered the secret realm, a total of thirteen people, at this moment, the scores after the name are all zero.
Ji Chaoyun stared at his name at the end of the leaderboard, laughed lightly, accepted the scoreboard, got up and walked towards the forest.
