With Ye Li's skills, without the suppression of Qin Yin, he jumped onto the platform on the top of the ship with Feng Qing Huan in two leaps.
Qi Wei was looking at Ye Li with great admiration at this moment. With his cultivation level, which was at an unknown level, he could tell at a glance that Ye Li had advanced to the Deification Stage.
In his eyes, a young talisman master in his early twenties who was at the stage of summoning gods was definitely a person with extraordinary potential.
In addition, Ye Li's extraordinary character and cultivation were far inferior to those of ordinary people, which further aroused Qi Wei's love for talent.
"Ye Li greets the senior!"
Seeing Qi Wei looking at him, Ye Li hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted respectfully.
Qi Wei nodded and said with a smile: "Ye Li, it seems that you really have obtained the Holy Spring. In just two days, you have broken through to the Descending God Stage.
That’s right, in this way, you are eligible to participate in this year’s city entrance trial.
But I still want to remind you that although you are extremely talented and have reached the descent stage at a young age, the Imperial City will never be required to accept you because of this.
Although we don't meet many people with talents like you, they are not too few either.
If you want to join the Imperial City, you only have one chance, which is to pass this entrance trial and get into the top four to qualify for the next final trial.
Only after you perform well in the final trial and pass our examination of your identity and background, can you officially join the Imperial City.
If you do not come to participate in the city entrance trial this year, but choose to stay until you are twenty-four years old to participate in the city entrance trial, it is entirely possible for you to break through to the middle stage of the Divine Descent Stage.
By then, your chances of passing both trials will be much greater, wouldn't you consider it more?"
Ye Li knew what Qi Wei meant by saying this. In addition to expressing the fairness of the Imperial City, he was also persuading Ye Li to choose a safer way.
After all, Qi Wei also hoped that Ye Li could join the Imperial City smoothly, rather than watching him lose the opportunity due to insufficient preparation.
Ye Li looked at Qi Wei gratefully, then shook his head and said, "Senior, I am ready and don't need to wait another four years.
Life is full of challenges. Since others can pass the trial with the strength of the early stage of the Divine Descendant Stage, I also have a chance.
The earlier I could enter the Imperial City, the more I could learn.
At my age, four years is too long. I will probably miss the best time to make rapid progress in my cultivation."
As Ye Li spoke, he revealed a bold and decisive temperament.
Qi Wei was delighted again after seeing this, and finally nodded, saying: "Good boy, I really underestimated you. You probably have already figured out the spirit contained in the power of the five elements."
Ye Li nodded after hearing what Qi Wei said and said, "Yes, I have figured out some things."
Qi Wei laughed and stopped trying to stop Ye Li, saying, "Okay, since you've made up your mind, I have no reason to stop you.
With your mentality, I don't think you will miss the opportunity to join the Imperial City.
And even if you really lose this opportunity, I believe that your life will not be ordinary, and you will definitely be a famous figure in the future."
Hearing Qi Wei's evaluation of Ye Li, everyone present looked at Ye Li in surprise.
They knew Qi Wei's identity; he was the uncle of Emperor City Lord Di Tianyao.
As a powerful man of the older generation in the Imperial City, Qi Wei has seen countless young elites. Compared with these people, he can still give such a high evaluation of Ye Li, which is really an extraordinary thing.
Dongfang Caiyi, who knew that Qi Wei loved talents, couldn't help but look at Ye Li with her beautiful eyes, with a complicated expression in her eyes.
Under everyone's attention, Ye Li accurately caught Dongfang Caiyi's gaze and looked back.
The two people's eyes met for a moment, but then looked away without making a sound. There seemed to be a rare kind of harmony in their expressions.
After Qi Wei instructed his servants to prepare a seat for Ye Li, he spoke to everyone along the coast, "Today is our last day here. As I said the day before yesterday, we will have the last round of tests tonight.
I know that the news of this temporary increase in the test has been spread to various nearby places by you. Many people have traveled for two consecutive days to come here to take part in the last test.
But don't underestimate this test. So far, more than a hundred people have participated in the test, but only one person can sit here. You can imagine how difficult it is.
Well, I won't say any more nonsense. Those of you who are going to take the test, please get ready. The final test is about to begin."
As soon as he finished speaking, hundreds of people suddenly jumped out from the shore, all of them were young people who were ready to take the test.
Most of these people have reached the Lingdan stage, but some have reached the Shennong stage. They all seem to be descendants of first- or second-grade large families.
Ye Li sat on the boat, looking at the flickering spiritual light on everyone, and felt a lot in his heart. With his current cultivation, if he were in Shanhai County, he would be considered a master, but compared to the world, he was just one of the many fish in the river.
There were far more young people of the same age as him who had reached the trance stage than he had imagined.
Although they had better family backgrounds than him and obtained more resources, they had not necessarily obtained the Sacred Spring. They were able to break through to the Divine Coming Stage at a young age, relying on their real abilities, and it seemed that they were no worse than him.
Seeing such a world, Ye Li was filled with passion. This was the world he wanted to venture into, a place full of challenges and competition.
With so many competitors to motivate him, he never has to worry about becoming complacent, let alone stagnating.
At this time, hundreds of young masters around were already ready. As soon as Qi Wei announced the start of the test, they would rush towards the ship and try to reach the platform on the top of the ship.
Except for Ye Li, Qi Wei and Dongfang Caiyi, the other dozen young masters on the platform looked around with ease. They had already seen yesterday's test and did not think that there was anything special about today's contestants.
Qi Wei looked at the young masters who were ready around him, raised his lips slightly, then winked at Dongfang Caiyi, waved his hand, and shouted: "Today's test officially begins."
Along with his voice, the sound of Dongfang Caiyi's piano also rang out.
The feeling of dense forests filled Ye Li's surroundings again, and Ye Li was surprised to find that sitting on this platform would also be affected by the sound of the piano.
This means that in the previous tests, these dozen young people were actually undergoing the same test.
Although they don't need to walk on the water to break through, they are the people closest to the piano music and can easily resist the illusion while sitting in place. None of them is an easy person to deal with.
