Chapter 31 Water Mirror
Everyone stood in front of the formation, listening seriously as Vice President Han explained the rules of the competition.
"For this competition, you are going to Shuijing." Vice Dean Han said in a low and powerful voice: "There, everything will be decided by strength. This competition uses a points system to determine the final ranking. There are all kinds of monsters and demons living in Shuijing, and their levels are different. For each successful kill of a low-level monster, you will get ten points; and for high-level monsters, corresponding points will be awarded according to their corresponding levels. If you kill a monster alone, all the points will belong to the individual; but if the whole team works together to kill it, the points will be evenly distributed to each member of the team."
At this point, Vice Dean Han paused for a moment, then raised his voice and said, "In this competition, the disciple who ranks first in points will receive an extremely precious immortal-level robe as a reward! At the same time, the top five will also receive an additional 100,000 high-grade spirit stones and a heavenly-level spirit tool each! In addition, they will have the opportunity to go to the Lingyou Secret Realm for three days of training, which is an extremely rare opportunity! As for the team ranked first, they can be directly promoted to the inner courtyard and receive a team reward of 50,000 high-grade spirit stones!"
His words struck everyone's heart like a heavy hammer, making everyone present's blood boil. Especially the immortal-level robes, a large number of high-quality spiritual stones, and the opportunity to enter the mysterious realm of spiritual cultivation, all of which made people excited. And being able to directly enter the inner courtyard is an honor and achievement that many people dream of. For a moment, everyone was eager to try, looking forward to showing their skills in the upcoming competition.
Everyone was furious after hearing this. The rewards this time were quite generous. Immortal-level robes! Heaven-level spiritual tools! They could also practice in a secret place that only elders and disciples could go to! It was said that there were treasures everywhere! The spiritual energy was very rich. One day of practice there was equivalent to a month of practice in the academy! What's more, there were so many spiritual stones!!!
Lu Wan thought, this time the academy is really spending a lot of money, the rewards are so generous, the requirements must be not simple!
Vice Dean Liu said with a gloomy face: "Don't be happy too soon! There are a total of twelve tokens placed in this palace, and they are hidden in various corners. Only those who finally hold the token can be considered to have successfully passed the test, and those without the token will be regarded as failures." He swept his cold eyes over the group of excited disciples in front of him.
At this time, Dean Qi Sheng said, "Moreover, there are more than thirty of you entering the Water Mirror this time. There are also another fifty disciples from previous years, and they are all former losers. If you want to get the token, you not only need to eliminate the competitors from other teams, but also have to compete fiercely with these former disciples. If you fail, you will be replaced by them and be trapped in the Water Mirror forever. You can only wait for the next time the Water Mirror opens to compete with a new batch of challengers."
Dean Qi Sheng's words hit every disciple's heart like a heavy hammer, and the originally excited atmosphere instantly became solemn. Everyone looked at each other with astonishment and worry on their faces. They originally thought that as long as they defeated other disciples of the same class, they would be able to pass the level smoothly, but they didn't expect that there would be such a group of powerful opponents. Faced with such a difficult task, they couldn't help but begin to doubt whether they could really complete the challenge and walk out alive...
The skinny monkey tightly grasped the crystal clear spirit bead in his hand, as if it was the last straw of his life. This spirit bead was specially distributed to every disciple by the academy, the purpose is not only to save their lives at the critical moment, but also to allow them to choose to give up when they have no choice. Because once the spirit bead is used, it means automatically admitting defeat and being eliminated. However, unlike in the past, this failure will not teleport people directly, but will trap them in it, and can only silently wait for the next formation to open. As for when and where that will be, no one knows!
Lu Wan glanced at everyone in the team and asked, "Are you scared?"
Everyone shook their heads and looked at Feng Qing who was standing in front of them with firm and resolute eyes.
Lu Wan showed a faint smile on his face and said softly: "Great! In that case, then... let's go!" Before he finished speaking, he took the lead and stepped into the mysterious formation without hesitation.
When Ming Langyue and others saw Feng Qing go in, they followed closely and entered the formation one by one.
"Hey!" Qi Sheng shouted in a hurry, and said angrily: "Why are these kids so impatient? I haven't even finished my words! The location of this teleportation is completely random, so you must be mentally prepared to fight alone. After entering, you may immediately encounter ferocious monsters, or you may meet your teammates, but it is more likely to encounter the hostile forces. The most common situation is to encounter those cunning disciples from the previous class who are good at waiting. Faced with such a complex and changing situation, are you really fully prepared?"
Seeing the remaining disciples nod, he said no more.
Shangguan Wan'er frowned and listened carefully to the dean's instructions. She turned around, a hint of hesitation in her eyes, and looked straight at Shangguan Qing and Minglangru. She knew very well that in this team, only the two of them were relatively weak. If they were unfortunately teleported to different places, the consequences would be unimaginable...
Shangguan Qing and Minglangru also stared at the location of the formation with worried faces. On weekdays, they were always arrogant and domineering, but at this moment they showed the innocent and lovely demeanor of little girls, which made people want to protect them.
At this moment, Ye Fen stepped forward, stretched out his right palm, with the palm facing up, on which rested a small and exquisite Psylocke. He looked at Shangguan Wan'er and said, "This Psylocke has extraordinary tracking ability. Even if it is thousands of miles away, it can accurately find the target person." Shangguan Wan'er thanked him gratefully and carefully took the Psylocke. The Psylocke was small, with crystal clear ice blue wings, and had no aggression at all. However, facing the problem of how to rely on a Psylocke to find everyone, Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but fall into a dilemma.
Just as she was thinking hard, she suddenly saw the Psylocke flying lightly to the shoulders of other team members. Every time it stopped briefly, its wings would gently flutter, as if something was falling from its wings. After completing these movements, the Psylocke flew back to Shangguan Wan'er. Shangguan Wan'er quickly put the Psylocke away, and then nodded to everyone, indicating that she was ready.
After looking at the formation, Yuchi Xuan and others also went in, and said, "Let's go."
After everyone entered, Vice Dean Liu was about to wave his hand to cast a spell to close the formation, when he suddenly heard a shout from behind: "Liu Lin!"
He stopped what he was doing in confusion and turned around to look, only to see Qi Sheng standing not far away with a strange smile on his face.
"Dean, is there anything I can help you with?" Liu Lin asked.
Qi Sheng smiled and looked across the willow forest, as if he was looking at something. Then he shook his head and said, "It's okay, it's okay."
Liu Lin was even more confused, but since the dean said so, he could not ask more questions and could only nod. At this moment, he caught a glimpse of a stream of light from the corner of his eye and flew into the formation. He didn't know if it was dazzled, but after a closer look, there was nothing unusual about the formation.
Seeing this, Qi Sheng's smile deepened, revealing a mouthful of big white teeth, and he smiled very happily. He waved his hand, turned around and left, leaving Liu Lin alone, confused.
Liu Lin looked at Qi Sheng's receding back and muttered to himself, "Why is the dean acting so strangely today? And what is that stream of light?" But he didn't think much about it, after all, the dean's actions were always unpredictable. Shaking his head, Liu Lin continued to cast a spell, completely shutting down the formation, and then left the place.
at the same time--
Lu Wan stepped into the formation carefully, and suddenly felt something soft under his feet. His heart tightened, and he lowered his head to check, but was surprised to find that he had stepped right on the tail of the Purple Flame Lion!
This purple flame lion is a fifth-level monster. Although it is still a cub, its body is already the same size as an adult. It is conceivable that if it grows up, how huge it will be!
Lu Wan took a deep breath and slowly lifted his feet, fearing to wake up the sleeping purple flame lion cub. Looking closely at the little guy in front of him, he saw that it was covered with a layer of bright orange hair, with only a bunch of purple fluff dotted at the tip of its tail. At first glance, except for the slightly different fur color, it seemed to be no different from an ordinary lion.
However, it is precisely under this seemingly ordinary appearance that the Purple Flame Lion hides its powerful strength and mysterious abilities. Lu Wan couldn't help but develop a strong interest in this Purple Flame Lion, thinking back to the sixth-level Fiery Beast that Sikong Yue promised when they first formed the team, but he hadn't even seen it yet. Looking at the Purple Flame Lion under his feet, he secretly thought: If he could subdue it as a pet or a partner, it would surely bring him a lot of help, right?
Looking around, there was no one else. It must have been a random teleportation by the formation.
Lu Wan looked around with great interest, feeling like he was on a trip. The last time he came to the academy to practice, he was fooled away by Su Yichen before he had time to appreciate the secret places.
Within each small formation in the academy is a small secret realm, and there are also several places for training leading to the middle realm.
The last time I participated in the competition, I think I went to Shajing. I wonder how those friends are doing? There are so many treasures in this secret realm. I must visit them one by one this time!
