Chapter 121 Ninety-nine Steps

"Although there are more people participating this time, the number of people who passed the first level is much smaller."

Elder Xuanyao said.

Qi Xiu also nodded, "I can only say that the difficulty of the first level is much higher than in the past, otherwise this time the first level would not have eliminated so many people."

"The time is coming soon, I don't know what the final number of people will be."

Elder Xuanyao scanned the five lines with his spiritual consciousness and shook his head, "The remaining ones probably don't have much hope."

All participating disciples, please note that there are only ten seconds left. If you are close to the exit, hurry up and seize this last moment.

"The first level is over and the disciples who have failed the assessment will be escorted out of the Funiu Mountains by the disciples of each sect."

When he heard the sound of the end of the first level, Lin Yi opened his eyes and looked at the disciples who had passed. There were about 400 people in total.

Everyone's face showed excitement. After passing the first level, they were one step closer to finally becoming a disciple of the I Immortal Sect, and it was possible to achieve enlightenment and become an immortal.

At this time, a leading elder stood up, it was Shang Jiufeng of Biluo Sect, and said: "First of all, congratulations on passing the first level. In addition to testing your ability to collaborate, the first level is also a test of you. You must dare to challenge The enemy wields his sword and fights to the death. His courage to move forward finally tests his ability to adapt to changes. "

"The world of cultivation is not as good as you think. It follows the law of the jungle. The monks are intrigued by each other and may die at any time. When faced with opportunities and death, not only must we resolve them tactfully, but we must also dare to challenge and fight for a glimmer of hope. "

"This is the purpose of setting up the first level. If you can successfully reach here, no matter what method you use, your purpose is to break through the obstacles of thorns, poisonous snakes and participating disciples, and gain a chance for yourself to qualify."

"Congratulations on your success."

After hearing the elder's speech, the disciples who passed by burst into warm applause, both for the elder's speech and to encourage themselves.

Shang Jiufeng waved to everyone to be quiet, "After passing the first level, you are one step closer to being selected by the sect, but the next few levels are not as easy as imagined. I hope you can make it to the end."

"The assessment rules for the second level will be announced next."

Shang Jiufeng pointed to the stairs in front of him and said: "If you pass the second level assessment and reach the top of the slope through this ladder, you will be considered passed."

When they heard Shang Jiufeng say that the second level is to walk up this flight of stairs, everyone felt happy. It seemed that this level was much easier than the first level. It was just a flight of stairs to the top of the slope, and there was no way to pass.

Everyone's tense expressions relaxed.

Shang Jiufeng saw the expressions of these people and smiled without explaining.

Finally said:

"This staircase consists of ninety-nine steps. Now I declare that the second level has officially begun."

When they heard the news that Shang Jiufeng had announced the start, all the disciples participating in the assessment rushed towards the stairs, hoping to be the first to reach the top of the slope and pass the second level of assessment.

Lin Yi stood still and did not move. Ma Hongsheng beside him saw that Lin Yi had not moved and said, "Fellow Taoist, why haven't you started yet?"

Lin Yi replied: "I'll wait for them to get up before we start. You can do whatever you want."

Ma Hongsheng nodded and walked quickly towards the stairs without thinking too much. He also hoped to pass the second level as soon as possible.

Lin Yi always felt that the second level couldn't be that simple. If it was just an ordinary staircase, why would it be set up as an assessment level?

At this time, several sect disciples had completed the first level of guarding tasks and came to the second level one after another.

Looking at the crowd of bee chrysalises, many people shook their heads. Senior Brother Ning from the Tianfeng Sword Sect said: "I remember that when I was taking the assessment, I was almost trapped in this level. Although the difficulty has been reduced many times now, it is not like these mortals." It can be passed easily."

Chu Miaoyin was directly admitted to the sect by his master and had never experienced the sect's assessment. She was very concerned about this. Even Senior Brother Ning almost fell into this hurdle. He was most afraid that Lin Yi could pass the assessment smoothly. He hoped that This level can be passed to stop him.

Asked: "Senior Brother Ning, what's the mystery of this level?"

Senior Brother Ning heard what she said and said, "Junior Sister Chu is more lucky. She has such a good master who entered the sect directly without even taking an exam. Naturally, Junior Sister Chu doesn't know this secret."

He continued: "This level tests one thing, and that is people's will. The higher you go, the stronger and more determined your will must be."

He shook his head, "But it's so difficult to pass every level."

Hearing Senior Brother Ning's words, Chu Miaoyin had no question in her mind. A test of her will was just an assessment of the mortal level. At this time, Lin Yi was already a monk. Could this stump him?

Chu Miaoyin asked: "Senior Brother Ning, if a monk were to take this test now, would he pass it easily?"

Senior Brother Ning thought for a while and shook his head, "I don't know either, but will is too mysterious. Even though we are at the mortal level, no one knows what will happen. Maybe a certain thing can change people's will." collapse."

Chu Miaoyin glanced at Lin Yi, who was still standing, with her peripheral vision, hoping that he would not be able to pass.

At this time, Lin Yi focused all his attention on these disciples who rushed up the stairs. Some of them had already reached the tenth step, but their progress slowed down greatly, and most of them were trapped on the ninth step.

Lin Yi knew that it was not as simple as imagined.

Suddenly I heard a loud shout,

"ah"

"impossible!"

"impossible!"

The disciple fell backwards and was about to fall to the ground. Elder Shang Jiufeng raised his hand and the disciple landed smoothly.

But the disciple's eyes showed fear and he kept muttering. Elder Shang Jiufeng came to the disciple, but the disciple seemed to not see anyone in front of him and was always silent in his own world.

Elder Shang Jiufeng put one hand on him, and soon he calmed down and slowly came back to his senses.

I don't know what happened. I'm not taking the test. Look around, why haven't I climbed the stairs yet.

Seeing that the man was fine, Elder Shang Jiufeng walked away and said to a sect disciple: "Send him away from the Funiu Mountains."

The disciple heard that he was going to be sent away and shouted: "I haven't taken the test yet, how can you send me away."

The sect disciple said: "You have already taken the test, but you failed the test."

The man was confused, "Impossible, I haven't climbed the stairs yet, how can I fail the test."

The sect disciple did not explain any more and took the man away.

The familiar scenes continued to happen, and more and more disciples were sent out of the Funiu Mountains.

Through observation, Lin Yi roughly understood what was going on and walked towards the stairs.
