The first elder didn't answer the second elder's question directly, he just nodded lightly.
"If we make up the 30 students this time, we may still have losses in the next trial. At that time, will we have to fill the vacancies with more outstanding students?" The second elder continued to ask, what is this? Once, his tone had taken on a very obvious questioning tone.
"Exactly." The First Elder looked at the Second Elder, and said, "This is the rule of the different world trials every three years, and you should all be aware of it."
"We all know this rule, but why did the number of people increase from ten people at the beginning to twenty people, and now the number has increased to thirty people in just a short period of time? Didn't you, Grand Elder, ask the higher-ups Have you ever wondered?" The second elder asked coldly.
Among the students lost in the Forest of Giant Trees, the Second Elder had the most students in the North College, even his own grandson, and according to the past practice, the students who lost which college should come out from that college .
In the face of such a situation, the second elder is not in a hurry but abnormal. With the second elder taking the lead in asking questions, the other elders who had always been full of opinions also immediately echoed.
"With great difficulty, we have carefully selected from various countries in the Shenyuan Continent, and the cultivation elites selected layer by layer will be sent to another world to be ruined in a short period of time, just like cutting their flesh." The fifth elder sighed.
"It doesn't matter if the students with low or high cultivation level go to another world, they will be close to death, but those with high cultivation level still have a chance of life, and those with too low cultivation level will almost die. But let me send the elites of our academy Sending it there, I still can’t do it.”
The third elder also said that this is why the people selected to participate in the different world trial are not the elites of the third hall, but only the students of the fifth academy.
"Yes, Great Elder, you can discuss it with the higher-ranking person. This time there are still 20 students, and next time we will count 30 students." Big reluctant to come.
The elders kept complaining to you and me. Their words were heard by the nineteen selected students sitting outside, and they couldn't help showing puzzled expressions.
Isn't it something everyone is looking forward to going to another world? Why are the elders so reluctant
From the tone of the elders, they heard that going to another world is a narrow escape, but many times on the road of cultivation, it is a narrow escape. They said that many people died when they entered the Kongming Academy for the first time. This time the trial of the Forest of Giant Trees also killed people.
Then it is not a big deal to go to another world and die. As long as there is enough reward, everyone is willing to take risks even if there are risks.
So everyone was even more puzzled by the excited complaints of the elders.
Yun Ruoyan and Zhuo Yifeng had some understanding of the situation in the different world after experiencing the trip to the different space, so they understand the excitement of the elders.
The students in Kongming Academy are all elites from big families. Once they are sent to another world, they will become the lowest existence there.
For an aristocrat, in many cases, he can be killed and cannot be humiliated, but in a place like another world, as long as your strength is not strong enough, you will be oppressed and humiliated. Maybe even if you are powerful enough, just because you are from a lower continent you will always be inferior, a gopher-like existence.
"Elders and selected students." The Great Elder finally spoke, his eyes swept over the elders and the students around.
"Going to another world for trials is a tradition that has been left over from thousands of years ago, and it is not up to us to control it. The elders should know this well. The few elders sitting here are also outstanding people who have returned from different worlds. If you don’t burn in the fire, you can get real gold, and if you don’t go through the baptism of mud, how can you realize what is noble? I don’t need to explain these truths. Bargaining with the superior is like fighting against the punishment of heaven. It's all futile, unless one day your cultivation reaches the realm of a superior, and before that we have no choice but to obey his orders."
The Great Elder's words made the entire conference hall quiet, and then the Great Elder turned his attention to the students sitting behind, and said, "Everyone, I have never had a detailed account of the real situation in the other world. Let me tell you, there are still two months to go into the different world, and I will take this opportunity to tell you the detailed situation in the different world with the elders, so that everyone can make preparations in advance."
Then the great elder took the lead, and several elders supplemented, and finally gave everyone a general introduction to the situation in the different world. What they described was basically the same as what Li Mo had told him from Periyang. There was no country in the other world, only a few powerful families, but apparently the elders had some reservations.
For example, they are called gophers in another world. For example, if they want to survive there, they must first get a job, and this job is often a slave to a family.
The elders did not say anything about these situations, but what they emphasized were the dangers and challenges, so as to encourage the students not to back down.
After talking about this, we began to discuss how to make up the nine students.
"This time, we only have one student from the North College." The second elder put the words down first, which meant that the remaining eight students would come from other colleges.
"I still say the same thing, you all know the situation of our intermediate court, as long as it is sent out, except for Zhuo Yifeng, almost all of them go and never return. It is really impossible for me to send me personally when I know that there is a dead end. "Six elders said.
The other elders didn't say a word, but at this time, silence was better than words, and silence meant that they were unwilling to send out students.
"Since that's the case, we have four students from the South School, and there are four remaining students from each of your schools." The Great Elder said.
Several elders heard the Great Elder say this, you look at me, I look at you, but they have nothing to say.
After the meeting, Yun Ruoyan and Zhuo Yifeng followed him to the armory in the secret room according to the elder's request, and Li Mo also accompanied Yun Ruoyan into the armory.
"Since your cultivation has reached the eighth level of Yu Jianshi, then you can choose one of the spirit swords here at will." The elder said to Yun Ruoyan and Zhuo Yifeng with a smile.
"To be honest with the First Elder, Zhuo Yifeng and I both have our own spirit swords." Yun Ruoyan confessed to him because he was already very familiar with the First Elder, and he also loved the First Elder. .
"Since the Great Elder asked you to choose, you don't have to be polite." Li Mo glanced at Yun Ruoyan and said.
"It doesn't matter, when you get to another world, you will know that the more spirit weapons the better." The elder said, Yun Ruoyan's spirit sword was given by Queen Xuetong, so the elder naturally knew about it, but Zhuo Yifeng had a spirit sword But he doesn't know.
"Can you show me your spirit swords?" the Great Elder asked Yun Ruoyan and Zhuo Yifeng.
Both Yun Ruoyan and Zhuo Yifeng took out their respective spirit swords. Yun Ruoyan's red-eyed elder was not surprised, but when his eyes fell on the Biyin Lingjian, he was slightly moved. Startled, he glanced at Li Mo.
Li Mo met the First Elder's eyes and nodded towards him almost imperceptibly, and the First Elder withdrew his gaze.
"They are all good swords." The Great Elder said, and then asked the two to put away their swords. He continued: "The swords here are worse than yours, but they are much better than the spiritual swords outside. The above is a high-quality product among middle-grade spiritual weapons, and it can greatly increase combat effectiveness when used as a weapon."
Hearing what the Great Elder said, Yun Ruoyan and Zhuo Yifeng began to choose from the armory.
Li Mo followed Yun Ruoyan and gave her advice.
He said: "Yan'er, you are quick in movement, lacking in spiritual power and endurance but explosive, so you should choose a light and tough weapon. It stands to reason that the black iron dagger I gave you is very suitable for you. It's a pity that the black iron is extremely powerful. It is difficult to refine it into a spirit weapon, but it is not as good as a spirit weapon that can be changed in size at will after successful cultivation, and it is more flexible and changeable in battle."
"Li Mo, what do you think of this dagger." While Li Mo was speaking, Yun Ruoyan happened to take a fancy to a very simple dagger.
Li Mo took the dagger that Yun Ruoyan handed over, and pulled out the sword, only to see a cold light, although not as powerful as Chi Tong and Bi Yin, it was still a good sword.
"Very good, Yan'er has a good eye." Li Mo reinserted the sword into the scabbard and handed it to Yun Ruoyan, so Yun Ruoyan chose the simple dagger.
Zhuo Yifeng walked in front of all kinds of spiritual sword weapons one by one, his eyes couldn't help but brighten up when he landed on a corner. In that corner, Zhuo Yifeng saw two dusty things.
One is a shield, and the other is a black whip that looks like a hibernating snake wrapped around the shield.
When he saw this whip, Zhuo Yifeng couldn't help but see the image of Thunder Batian, the scarlet whip exploded in the air like thunder, very terrifying.
Zhuo Yifeng walked towards that corner, and then brushed off the dust on the shield to reveal its original appearance. It was also a dark shield with no visible material, and there was no feeling on it. There are fluctuations in spiritual power, but since it is placed in the armory in the secret room, it should also be a spiritual weapon.
Seeing Zhuo Yifeng standing in the corner, staring at the shield in a daze, the Great Elder walked over and explained to him: "This shield is made of the horn of a giant rhinoceros, and it is also a rare spiritual weapon. , but it has not been selected because it is too bulky. It has been stored in this armory for more than ten years. The spiritual power on it has dissipated because no one has used it for a long time, but in the process of cultivation and use Spiritual power will slowly recover."
The Great Elder felt that Zhuo Yifeng was tall and thin but strong and powerful, and from his eyes the Great Elder could see his love for the shield, so he strongly recommended him, "And this whip is compatible with the shield. I still have a copy of the whipping method here, if you choose this set of spiritual energy, I will teach you the whipping method together."
"Okay, I'll choose it." Zhuo Yifeng said and took the shield and whip in his hands.
The shield is quite heavy to buy, but Zhuo Yifeng can control it completely. After the successful refining of the weapon, the shield can be completely reduced and carried without affecting the action.
After choosing weapons, when the three of them were about to leave the South Tower, the First Elder asked Li Mo to stay and talk, while Zhuo Yifeng and Yun Ruoyan walked out from the South Tower first. Zhuo Yifeng knew that Yun Ruoyan was going to leave with Li Mo, so he said, "Then I'll go back first."
After speaking, he walked towards another road leading to the middle courtyard.
"Zhuo Yifeng, wait a minute, I have something to tell you." He hadn't walked a few steps when Yun Ruoyan's voice sounded behind him,
