"The Strongest Martial Emperor in the City"!
The test in front of Yang Qi was simple, because his strength far exceeded that of a late-stage six-star martial emperor. He could resist the attack just by activating the Cauldron of All Things. If it were any other late-stage six-star martial emperor, it would be impossible for them to do this, and naturally they would not be able to pass the test as easily as Yang Qi.
Although the eight attacks seemed chaotic and without any coordination, they were still attacks from eight practitioners of the same level, and the battle was no less difficult than facing the siege of three or four practitioners of the same level. Under the siege of three or four practitioners of the same level, it was hard to imagine how difficult it would be to pass this test!
However, for Yang Qi, this level of test was not dangerous at all, so he could pass it easily. If it were Zheng Shuo and others, it would be impossible to do the same.
Yang Qi collected his thoughts and began to look around the hall in front of him. The entire hall was empty, without any objects or practitioners.
After taking a look at the hall in front of him, Yang Qi withdrew his gaze and muttered to himself, "It seems that the cultivator who entered Jiuyou Mansion before has already gone to the depths of Jiuyou Mansion!"
Although the test in Jiuyou Mansion is very difficult, it is not to the extent that no practitioners can pass the first test. However, there are no practitioners in the hall before him. The only explanation is that they have gone deeper into Jiuyou Mansion to look for opportunities.
However, there was no exit in the hall now, and it was obvious that they had to wait until Zheng Shuo and the others finished the test before they could leave together. Yang Qi could only sit cross-legged and start to recover from the energy he had consumed in the passage.
Before in the dim space, Yang Qi had only consumed some of his energy, so he recovered very quickly. In just a moment, the energy in his body had returned to its peak.

Not long after Yang Qi recovered, a strange wave spread not far away, and then a slightly embarrassed figure appeared in the hall. Who else could it be but Zheng Shuo.
Um
As soon as Zheng Shuo appeared in the hall, he sensed a familiar aura. He immediately looked towards Yang Qi's position, and his expression changed slightly. "Emperor Xuxing actually passed the test before me?"
At first, Zheng Shuo didn't know what he was facing in the dim space, but as time went on, he discovered what those attacks represented. However, facing the attacks from practitioners of the same level, even if Zheng Shuo resisted, it was quite strenuous, and it took a lot of effort to pass the test.
Although Zheng Shuo did not arrogantly think that he would be the first practitioner to pass the test, he definitely did not think that Yang Qi would pass the test before him.
"These Xuxing Emperors seem to be a little bit extraordinary!" A gleam of light flashed in Zheng Shuo's eyes. Yang Qi was able to pass the test so quickly, his combat power must be far beyond his own cultivation level, otherwise it would be impossible for him to do this.
Thinking of this, Zheng Shuo couldn't help but feel a little regretful. If he had known earlier that Yang Qi had such strength, he would probably have taken the initiative to recruit Yang Qi to join his team.
It is difficult to invite Yang Qi to join the team now. After all, they forced Yang Qi to explore the way before, which has left a grudge in the other party's heart. It is naturally not so easy to cooperate again.
Although it became much more difficult to win over Yang Qi, Zheng Shuo still took the initiative to speak, "Daoyou Xuxing, I didn't expect you to be the first practitioner to pass the test. I admire you!"
"I was just lucky." Yang Qi smiled indifferently. He had already repaid the favor. Even though he could understand Zheng Shuo's previous actions, it did not mean that he was willing to continue to have anything to do with Zheng Shuo and others.
Feeling Yang Qi's obviously repellent attitude, Zheng Shuo couldn't help but smile bitterly, but he also understood that all this was his own fault. Originally, relying on the favor he had given them before, the two sides still had some friendship, but unfortunately, this friendship was completely gone now.
“There is no such thing as luck if you want to pass the test set by the Saint Lord of Jiuyou.” Zheng Shuo shook his head slightly.
Who is the Holy Lord of Jiuyou? He is the master of the alien universe. It is impossible for them, the mid-level Martial Emperors, to take advantage of him, even for the practitioners at the emperor level.
Zheng Shuo exchanged a few more pleasantries, but seeing that Yang Qi's attitude was still lukewarm, he decided not to continue the conversation and sat down cross-legged to recover from the energy consumed in the previous battle.
While Zheng Shuo was recovering from his injuries, two more practitioners passed the test and came to the hall in front of them. When they saw Yang Qi, they were obviously surprised, as they obviously did not expect Yang Qi to appear here.
Although they were surprised, they didn't take it too seriously. After nodding to Yang Qi, they sat cross-legged and began to recover from their injuries. Compared to Yang Qi, Zheng Shuo and the other two were obviously in a much more miserable state. It was obvious that passing the previous test was not so easy.
Buzz~
With the arrival of the fifth practitioner, a strange wave came from the depths of the hall, and then a huge passage appeared in everyone's sight.
Noticing the unusual movement in the hall, Zheng Shuo and the others immediately stopped healing their wounds and looked towards the passage that opened deep inside the hall. "Is it over?"
Among the nine practitioners, only five arrived here, and only about 50% passed the first test.
Zheng Shuo looked at Yang Qi not far away and said quickly, "Fellow Daoist Xu Xing, the next test does not seem to restrict practitioners from joining forces. How about we join forces to fight?"
"I appreciate Fellow Daoist Zheng Shuo's kindness, but I'm used to working alone. If I join the team, it would be a burden to you." Yang Qi shook his head slightly.
If it was in the open space before and Zheng Shuo invited Yang Qi, he would not refuse, but now they no longer have any friendship with each other, so there is naturally no need for Yang Qi to join the team of Zheng Shuo and others.
Hearing this, Zheng Shuo's eyes flashed with disappointment, and he could only say, "In this case, I won't force you to do anything. If you encounter any trouble, you can come to us at any time."
Yang Qi nodded without comment, then he flashed and flew towards the passage deep in the hall. In a flash, he disappeared from the sight of Zheng Shuo and the other three.
Watching Yang Qi leave, the man in fancy clothes couldn't help but look down, and said slowly, "Daoyou Zheng Shuo, this Emperor Xu Xing is really too ungrateful."
Although Yang Qi's extraordinaryness can be seen from the fact that he passed the test and came to the hall, they had also passed the test. Now they took the initiative to invite Yang Qi to join the team, but were rejected by the other party. The man in gorgeous clothes felt a little uncomfortable.
"We did something wrong before." Zheng Shuo sighed and continued, "Daoyou Xuxing's strength should not be inferior to ours. When I came here before, he had already recovered, which means he arrived at the hall much earlier than me."
