Ye Chen's little episode didn't seem to make any waves, the rest of the people were still selected by other families, and it was still okay to be an ordinary guard or family member with their potential, but it was a fantasy to want to get ahead again, unless it was really a chance against the sky.

The old man glanced at the time, got up and came to the person who passed the assessment, especially when he saw Ye Chen and the others, he showed a smile, but this smile was matched with the wrinkled face, and there was an indescribable feeling.

"You are all very good, you have passed the first assessment, and then there is another assessment waiting for you, as long as you pass that assessment, you can join the Royal Academy, but I didn't expect that there would be such an outstanding person this time, it seems that I am fortunate to be in the Royal Academy." ”

With the old man's words, everyone's eyes focused on Ye Chen and his group, if it was outstanding, it was only this team, they all triggered the blue pillar of light at the lowest, uh... Except for the fat man who was indiscriminate.

The old man led them to a huge square, only to see that there were eight stone pillars erected around the square, each of which was carved with a different pattern, which made them curious, and the people close to the stone pillar even wanted to stretch out their hands to touch the stone pillar, but with the old man's words, these people immediately retracted their hands.

"This is a formation for exercising spiritual power, called the spiritual grinding plate, it is a fourth-level formation, I will open the formation when the time comes, as long as you can hold on to a stick of incense, you will pass the assessment. ”

Everyone talked about it, and they all felt that this was an impossible assessment, and the fourth-level formation was equivalent to the Xuanzhi of the Dan Period, so that they could survive for an hour under the pressure of the Xuanzhi of the Dan Period, isn't it a fantasy? What's more, the four-level formation that was arranged was much stronger than the ordinary Xuanren of the Dan Period.

Only Ye Chen was a little interested in this, after all, the formation magician was known as the three major professions with the alchemist and the refiner, so the formation they arranged should also be a little interesting. The fourth-level formation spirit grinding plate, listening to the name, knows that it is acting on the spiritual side, since it is mainly exercise, then the test is willpower, so it should still have some effect on him now.

"Quiet, who doesn't want to participate in the assessment can leave directly, my generation of mysteries, since the difficulties to face the difficulties, retreat, then what kind of mysteries, it is better to go home and farm. ”

Ye Chen couldn't help but chuckle, thinking to himself that this old man was really interesting, is this a method of agitation, how much effect can it have if he strikes first and then encourages. However, it is true that as the old man said, Xiu Xuan has to fight with others, and he can't get anything by blindly retreating, so he can only ignore everyone. Besides, this formation won't hurt anyone, even if it doesn't last for an hour, it shouldn't cause much damage to itself, if you don't dare to accept the test like this, then it's really better to go home and farm.

Seeing that no one had withdrawn, the old man continued: "Since no one has withdrawn, then I will open the formation, as long as I find that you can't support it, I will remove you from the range of the formation, and then you can leave." ”

I saw that there was an extra jade plate in the old man's hand, and the jade card flashed, and the patterns on the eight stone pillars flashed at the same time, and an indescribable feeling suddenly appeared, enveloping everyone. It's like an extra boulder on their bodies, and I saw that sweat appeared on the foreheads of many people, but they were still gritting their teeth and holding on, as long as they lasted for an hour, they would be able to join the Royal Academy, and it would be possible to get rid of the status of civilians.

Only Ye Chen looked at everyone with a confused expression, why didn't he feel anything, if he hadn't seen the fat on Nangong Cai's dead fat man's face squeezed together, he thought that he had just turned on the light just now, and he hadn't opened any formation.

"Qing Yu, do you feel anything?"

Qing Yu nodded slightly: "I can feel a little abnormal, but this pressure has no effect on me." ”

Yun Tong also said on the side: "It's like running with weight, if you use this kind of pressure, it's no problem to stick to it for a day." ”

Yun Ting also nodded, agreeing with Yun Tong's point of view.

Only Nangong Cai gritted his teeth and looked at the four people who were not abnormal, and couldn't help but speak: "Old... Boss, you... You guys... None of them... What the... Do you feel it?"

Ye Chen didn't pay attention to Nangong Cai, but was thinking about what Yun Tong said, Yun Tong said that this is like running with weights, so it means that this formation acts on both mental and physical levels at the same time. If your mental strength is strong enough, then you will not feel anything, and in the same way, if your physical strength is beyond the realm, then you will not feel anything. For example, the current Ye Chen, after refining the true blood of the phoenix, he has to surpass his peers in both the spiritual realm and the physical strength, so he has no feeling. Qing Yu also felt that this formation had no effect because of this reason, and Yun Ting Yuntong could explain it very well, that is, they had been running around before, often fighting with demon beasts, and over time, their physique was naturally much stronger, and moreover, because of the exercises, when the two sisters were together, they could share a certain amount of pressure.

As for why Nangong Cai is so unbearable, it is actually very easy to explain, that is, his fat body is the best explanation, like this kind of lazy goods, this cultivation may be piled up with elixir, do you still expect him to do something great.

Time passed little by little, and some people fell to the ground one after another, and when they were about to have a close contact with the ground, they would be wrapped in a white light and moved out of the range of the formation, and the pressure on the people who moved out of the formation disappeared suddenly, and many people were crying bitterly, they still lost their qualifications to enter the Royal Academy.

Gradually, there were fewer and fewer people left in the formation, and there were only a hundred when counted carefully, which made Qing Yu sigh at the fierce competition of the human race, there were originally so many people, and after two rounds of screening, there were less than a hundred people left. And Ye Chen had already closed his eyes, looking drowsy, and Yun Ting and Yun Tong were also a little farther away, each feeling the pressure brought by this formation. Only Nangong Cai was gritting his teeth and holding on, his face was red and panting, and his legs were trembling all the time, as if another gust of wind could blow him down.

At this moment, the old man's heavenly voice finally sounded, and those who were still struggling to hold on finally breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed to the ground.

"In an hour, you've all passed the exam, and from now on you're a member of the Royal Academy. ”

Ye Chen also opened his eyes when he heard the old man's voice, and slowly stretched his waist, just in time to see Nangong Cai, who was lying on the ground and convulsing like a dead pig, he couldn't help but kick it: "Hurry up and meditate and pranayama, let the Xuan Qi travel in the meridians, and relieve the fatigue on your body, you wasted such a good opportunity." ”

Ye Chen's voice was not loud, but it was enough for everyone in the square to hear, many people who still had a little spare time carefully thought about the meaning of Ye Chen's words, and got up from the ground to meditate, the girl who triggered the cyan pillar of light also glanced at Ye Chen in surprise, she didn't believe that Ye Chen was just saying to Nangong Cai, but she also meditated cross-legged according to Ye Chen's words.

Nangong Cai said weakly: "Boss, it's not good, it's really not good, I can't get up." ”

Ye Chen glanced at Nangong Cai with disgust: "If you continue to call me boss, then you will do what I want, otherwise, where will you go back and forth." ”

Hearing Ye Chen say this, Nangong Cai shuddered, and he didn't know where the strength came from, so he got up from the ground stiffly, meditated and breathed cross-legged, and slowly recovered his fatigue. And those who were lying on the ground saw that Nangong Cai, who was like a fat pig, was able to sit up and meditate, and their eyes were immediately red, and they gritted their teeth and tried their best to get up and meditate, they were all children of poor families, and their potential was not as good as that of others who had nothing to say, but their perseverance was not as good as these pampered young masters, so what did they pay attention to cultivating Xuan, and they would die by buying a piece of tofu.

The old man looked at this scene with interest, and whispered: "Is this the temperament of a leader, a casual sentence can be convincing, it seems that our Heavenly Emperor Dynasty has also produced a great character, Ye Chen, let people go to the royal family to ask later, the royal family should know this person." ”
