Gao Mingyue, Wan Qiu, and Xia Yan chatted in the room for nearly an hour. Just got up to say goodbye and leave.
And Xia Yan, on the second day, entered the Golden Dragon Hall near the restaurant again, and went directly to the Hall of Merit. This hall of merit is very similar to the registration method of the mercenary hall, but the requirements are much more demanding.
If you want to register as a Golden Dragon Guardian, you must at least have the strength above a spiritual master. Before registering, you must first fill in your personal information, and then wait for the strength test arranged by the Hall of Merit.
Only those who pass the test can officially become Golden Dragon Guardians.
However, Xia Yan has not been tested.
Xia Yan himself has the Golden Dragon Token. He only needs to register his information to get the special crystal scroll in the Hall of Merit, and he doesn't even need to pay the cost of one hundred gold coins.
After registration, there is Xia Yan's information in the Hall of Merit and Merit, and Xia Yan's current merit is zero. In the hall of the merit point, there is a huge moving wooden board with a hundred names on it.
These one hundred names are the one hundred people with the highest meritorious service on the Dragon Continent. The ranking is also based on the level of merit. The current ranking of the Holy Emperor is the first, and his meritorious service is more than 338,000.
And the one who ranked second only had more than 100,900 feats.
After meritorious deeds are exchanged for gold coins. It will not be cut, but it will be displayed on the registration information.
What is the name of the Golden Dragon Guard, how many merits are there, how many merits have been redeemed, and how many merits have not been redeemed, they are all written very clearly.
On this huge movable wooden board, there are only the top 100 people with meritorious deeds. If the Golden Dragon Guard whose name is on it dies, he will be removed from the wooden board, and the people behind will push to the front.
After coming out of the Golden Dragon Hall, Xia Yan hardly ever went out of the restaurant for several days.
After these few days of cultivation, Xia Yan's injuries from the fierce battle with Wang Yu have almost healed.
As for the eighth grade storage spirit pill, Xia Yan did not use it at this time. It was less than four months since the last time he used the storage spirit pill. The medicinal effect of that storage spirit pill has not been fully absorbed, so Xia Yan Not in a hurry to continue using the pill.
…
Seven days later!
Mr. Liu, come to the restaurant. On the holy mountain that day, Mr. Liu told the three of them that he would go down the mountain in seven days and take the three of them up the mountain to take part in the assessment. Xia Yan and the three had packed up their things early in the morning and were ready to go up the mountain at any time.
As soon as Mr. Liu arrived at the restaurant, he took the three of Xia Yan who had already prepared to board the holy mountain again in just a short time for a cup of tea.
"There are a total of eight people participating in the Tiangong assessment this time." Mr. Liu said on the way up the mountain.
"Except for the three of you, there are five more people who are practitioners from outside the academy. They have never practiced in any academy. I have read the information of the five of them, and four of them are They are mercenaries, and they are all sixth-level mercenaries with rich combat experience." Mr. Liu also hopes that all the people he recommends can enter the Tiangong.
"Mr. Liu, are there always eight people participating in the Tiangong assessment each time?!" Xia Yan asked curiously, frowning.
Mr. Liu shook his head, "Not necessarily, sometimes there are seven or eight people, and sometimes there are twelve or three people."
Xia Yan nodded, and then asked, "Then why don't you recommend a few more people to participate in the assessment?!"
If there are too many people, the probability of those who pass the assessment is small, but the number of people who pass the test may be more if the base is large.
You must know that the number of people who pass the Tiangong assessment is not fixed, as long as the strength reaches and a little bit of necessary luck, they can pass.
Hearing Xia Yan's question, Mr. Liu smiled.
"Xia Yan. This recommendation is not a random recommendation. No one dares to be casual in front of the Holy Emperor. Moreover, the qualifications of the recommenders also need the approval of the Holy Emperor. Besides, Tiangong's resources are limited, and it is impossible for a large number of people to participate in the assessment." Mr. Liu looked at Xia Yan and said.
The four of them quickly climbed to the top of the holy mountain.
"So that's the case!" Xia Yan nodded suddenly.
Mr. Liu is right, Tiangong's resources are limited, only the best people on the mainland can have the opportunity to participate in Tiangong's assessment.
"Fang Kui." Mr. Liu turned to look at Fang Kui.
Fang Kui and Jiao Ziming didn't speak much all the way, but when Mr. Liu called him, Fang Kui hurriedly responded.
"You participated in the Tiangong examination last time. You should have a lot of experience this time. You must try your best to pass. This is also your last chance to enter the Tiangong." Mr. Liu said slowly.
Fang Kui's eyes flickered slightly, and he nodded solemnly, "Mr. Liu, I will try my best. I dream about entering the Heavenly Palace. This time, no matter what, I will do my best."
Fang Kui's muscles were tense, and his words revealed a sense of confidence.
Xia Yan frowned, and asked again, "Mr. Liu, are there really only two or three who can pass the assessment each time?!"
If so, the probability of passing the examination is very low.
This time eight people participated in the Tiangong assessment. In the end, only two or three people can pass the assessment. Everyone else will face the fate of failure.
"That's right, during the decades I've been in Tiangong, I have passed the Tiangong assessment more than a dozen times. However, I have seen the most people who passed the assessment once, and there were only three people. That time, thirteen people participated in the assessment. Three One person passed, and the remaining ten people were all eliminated." Mr. Liu said in a deep voice.
Those who are eliminated will be sent down the holy mountain immediately.
"flutter… "
Suddenly, Xia Yan felt someone approaching from behind.
On this holy mountain, no outsiders usually come here, and those who can climb the mountain are either people from the holy mountain or approved by the holy emperor.
Feeling someone approaching, Xia Yan couldn't help turning around to look.
Mr. Liu also felt that someone was chasing him from behind, he paused and looked back.
Xia Yan saw that there were a total of seven people chasing up from behind, and they were quickly approaching his position, among them. Two people are older, and the remaining five people look much younger, in their twenties or thirties.
"It was Zhang Xunguan and Jane inspecting them. They were so fast." Mr. Liu had a strange smile on his face as soon as he saw the person.
Soon, those seven people arrived near Mr. Liu Xia Yan and others.
"Hehe, Liu Xunguan, are these three little guys the ones you recommended this time?!" Among the two older people on the other side. One of them said with a smile, and glanced at Xia Yan and the three of them. This person was short in stature, wearing a dark yellow custom-made robe, and had thinning hair.
"Exactly." Mr. Liu said with a smile, "Xunjian Jian, Xunzhang Zhang, why are you in such a hurry?!"
Jane Xunguan, Zhang Xunguan and others climbed the mountain very fast. Mr. Liu took Xia Yan and the three of them up the mountain faster, but the speed of the seven of them was obviously much faster than the four of Xia Yan.
"Hehe, we were at the bottom of the mountain and we saw you going up the mountain, so we chased after you." The other inspector didn't have much expression on his face, and his voice sounded rather rigid.
"Xunguan Liu, let's go to Tiangong together." The inspector who spoke first smiled and said, "Hey, Xunguan Liu, even if the students from the academy are not bad at strength, it is difficult for them to pass the examination of Tiangong."
According to the past rules, the number of students in the academy who passed the assessment was indeed lower than those outside the academy. However, the number of people participating in the assessment in the academy is far less than that outside the academy. Just like this time, there are three people in the academy, but there are five people outside the academy.
"Hehe." Mr. Liu shook his head and smiled. He didn't say much, but said, "Let's go to Tiangong together."
Three inspectors, leading eight people, ran towards Tiangong.
The Heavenly Palace is on the side of the Palace of the Emperor, and the area above the holy mountain is huge.
Going around on the right side where ten o'clock was swaying, Xia Yan saw many different buildings distributed among a large area of trees.
That inspector Jane and inspector Zhang brought the five people up the mountain. They were all looking at Xia Yan and the three of them with their eyes.
Most of these people are mercenaries with rich experience in fighting.
They also knew that the three of Xia Yan came out of the academy. In fact, they are extremely disdainful of the practitioners who came out of the academy. From their point of view, the practitioners who came out of the academy were just putting on airs without going through a real life-and-death struggle. No matter how powerful the strength and martial arts might be, they may not be able to fully display their strength in a real fight.
Without the baptism of the evil forest, one cannot grow into a real warrior at all!
In their eyes, Xia Yan saw undisguised contempt and contempt. Naturally, there was a fierce killing intent on them.
Even if the weapons in their hands are not drawn out, they themselves are like sharp swords out of their sheaths.
"Ahead is the entrance to the Heavenly Palace!"
After about a cup of tea time, everyone bypassed many buildings and bushes, and came to an invisible stone formation.
Xia Yan saw that although these piles of stones were messy, they seemed to be arranged in a regular way.
In the line of sight, a black tower can be clearly seen.
"Is that the Tower of Trials?!"
A big man with two silver hammers on his back exclaimed when he saw the tower, with a very obvious look of excitement on his face.
He seemed to have heard of this tower that appeared in everyone's sight.
"The Tower of Trials?!" Xia Yan heard of it for the first time.
"That's right, that's our Tiangong's Trial Tower! If you can pass the Tiangong's assessment, then you will also have the opportunity to enter the Trial Tower for trials in the future. Hmph, this is the dream of thousands of practitioners." The indifferent inspector glanced at the man who spoke, and said in an emotionless voice.
"It's the first time you come to Tiangong, follow us closely and don't run around. These chaotic rocks seem to be harmless, but if you rush in and trigger the formation, even with your strength, you may die here." Liu The gentleman took a deep breath and said seriously.
Xia Yan's heart tightened slightly. He thought these chaotic rocks were unusual just now, but now he heard from Mr. Liu that they really are formations with offensive capabilities.
The scale of this chaotic stone formation is very huge, and everyone can feel its vastness and boundlessness before entering. And in the depths of the stone formation, everyone can only see the towering tower of trials, and nothing else can be seen.
Following behind Mr. Liu and the others, Xia Yan and the others quickly walked into the stone formation.
