In a burst of light, the first batch of candidates appeared on another floating square.

Behind is the tall Tianxuan Stone Gate, which is now the gate of the academy.

In front of him was a giant floating flying sword, which was composed of the path to the Middle Mind Domain, which was also the campus of the Academy.

"This is the Sword of Conscience!"

Yue Ming raised his eyes like a torch, and said in a deep voice: "Go up! After walking this road, you have passed the first exam!"

Everyone looked at each other, looking at the white clouds floating left and right, as well as the sword path that was quietly floating in the air, and they all hesitated for a while.

The exam they originally imagined might be a test of qualifications, or a test of strength, but who knows, it turned out to be for them to take such an empty road.

But this road does look a little scary, first of all, not to mention anything else, just this height, if you fall, with the strength of these people, it will really be ten deaths. Moreover, there are no fences on both sides of this sword road, and the space between the flying swords under his feet is enough for people to fall. Besides, if you really stumble between the gaps, I'm afraid that before you fall, you will be cut by the blade that flashes with cold light.

"What, don't you dare to go up?" Yue Mingju's gaze swept over everyone, and there was a hint of mockery in his voice.

Everyone was silent for a moment, and someone couldn't help but ask, "This road is so dangerous, what if it falls?"

"What else can I do?" Yue Mingju said lightly: "If you fall, that is if you fall, you still expect me to save you by myself?"

Everyone was in an uproar, and some people protested: "We are also human beings, but it is just an exam, and it is too much to put our lives on the line." ”

"Excessive?" Yue Ming's eyes flashed with a cold light, and the people who were swept past were all afraid: "The fairy road is bumpy, if you can really set foot on it, you will definitely experience a thousand difficulties and dangers, if you don't have the consciousness of gambling your life, what else do you want to achieve? The academy does not look at the noble or the low, but not all the rats are qualified to enter the academy. ”

Then, with a wave of his sleeves, an incense burner appeared at the intersection of the sword road: "You have a stick of incense for a while, and those who have not set foot on the sword road before the incense burns out will automatically be regarded as giving up!"

At this moment, everyone suddenly fell silent.

Looking at Yue Mingju's appearance, he didn't mean to joke with them at all.

So now there are only two paths left, go, or not?

After a while, someone finally stood up, a young man from Aoyama who looked rather conceited.

"Hmph, isn't it just a sword road?

He stepped forward and set out on the path of the sword without hesitation.

Yue Mingju, who was standing on the side, nodded slightly approvingly.

Perhaps it was Yue Mingju's demeanor that made more people make up their minds, and soon, there was a second, a third, and a fourth.

In the end, when this incense burned out, most of the more than 500 people on the stage chose to embark on the sword path, and only a small part remained on the stage.

"Hey, there are a lot of people who are bold. ”

On the Divine Tree, Mock Feng, who was standing next to Long Chen, raised his eyebrows and said with a smile.

Chen Long shook his head and did not speak.

This Conscience Sword Road is only the first level, and even before the first level has begun, nearly one-fifth of the people have been brushed down, and there are not many who can stay until the end.

The Asking Heart Sword Road is nearly a hundred miles long from the gate of the academy to the sky above the spiritual realm, not to mention five hundred people walking on the sword path, even if it is five thousand, it is extremely sparse at all. Therefore, after Yue Mingju sent people to send the people who gave up from power, after a stick of incense, he directly brought the second group of people up, followed by the third group.

As Chen Long thought, at least one-fifth of them retreated before they even stepped on the sword path, but this proportion was within Chen Long's expectations, and it was even much higher than Chen Long's expectations. After all, most of these people were mortals who had never been in contact with cultivation before this, and they were already very courageous to dare to embark on this path.

The candidates have embarked on the road of the sword of conscience, although this road is steep, but it is very stable, after all, it was made by Chen Long himself, naturally there will be no mistakes and omissions, as long as there is a strong psychological quality, plus enough care, it will not fall down at the beginning.

But the further back you go, the harder it gets. This road is a hundred miles long, even if it is a marathon on the earth in Chen Long's previous life, the longest is not such a distance, not to mention that it is in the air, without any protection, walking on the sword, and the blade of the cold light is at his feet, the further back, the greater the test of psychological quality and physique.

Fortunately, most of these candidates have been cultivating in the Wood Domain for a few months, which can be regarded as an introduction to cultivation, and their physique is much better than that of ordinary people, otherwise, even if there are no other factors, it will be difficult to walk down this section of the road.

However, the true test of the sword path of conscience has only begun now.

Among the first few candidates, the third is a young candidate in his twenties.

He was cautious at first, and every step was very cautious, so to speak, he was tugging at his heart at any time, and after walking for miles like this, he finally relaxed a little.

"As long as you are careful with this sword path, it is not difficult. ”

He thought to himself, and his pace quickened, but soon, he realized that something was wrong.

At first, he thought that he was too nervous, causing his whole body to be uncomfortable, and his heart was constantly pinching, but now that he has relaxed, this uncomfortable feeling still exists, like a stab in the back, and as if in the void, there are countless cold swords surrounding him, and he may be stabbed down at any time, cutting himself with a thousand knives.

"This feeling ......" He felt a little panic in his heart, desperately trying to relax himself, but no matter how hard he tried, the further he went, the worse this feeling became, not only around his body, but even as if the long sword under his feet would come at any time and cut off the soles of his feet. In this way, the more he walked, the more frightened he became, the more panicked he became, and he walked more than a mile, and his whole body was already covered with sweat.

In the end, in a panic, he stepped out in one step, did not step steadily, his body shook, and he fell down from the gap.

"Ah!!!h

The screams pierced the sky, and before and after the entire sword road, in front of everyone's eyes, the young man fell off the sword path, struggled and screamed and fell, and disappeared into the white clouds in the blink of an eye, but the screams still lingered in his ears.

Everyone only felt a chill all over their bodies, and the first loser finally appeared.

The first person to fall broke everyone's confidence, and some people who had been walking very steadily also began to panic at this time, so that before they reached the position of the previous youth, they were already walking in a messy manner.

Soon, a second scream rang out, and a second loser appeared.

The steepness of the sword road, the invisible oppression that permeates the sword road, and the losers who fall, these seem to have turned into chains, binding the hearts of all candidates.

On the other side, behind the platform at the beginning, the young man who fell first, screamed, suddenly woke up, and found that he didn't know when he arrived on the platform.

"Huh...... Here, I'm not dead?"

The young man looked around in surprise, and at the same time saw the other candidates gathered in front of him, as well as Yue Mingju on the side of the sword road.

"What's going on?"

"Yes, you're not dead. Yue Mingju's voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

"It's a pity that you lost the election. ”

The young man had already reacted at this time, and when he heard Yue Mingju's voice, he immediately jumped up unwillingly.

"How is that possible! I don't accept it! Since you won't die if you fall, you should have explained it from the beginning! If I had known, I wouldn't have been so flustered! I'm going to do it all over again!"

"It's a shame that there are no second chances. ”

Yue Mingju's voice sounded again: "You lost the election, go down, someone will send you away." ”

The young man said angrily: "It's not fair, I shouldn't have lost the election, since you don't say it, then I'll tell the others!"

As he spoke, he ran towards the crowd in front of him: "Don't be afraid! You won't die if you fall! He's lying to you!"

However, halfway through the run, an invisible wall stopped in front of him, and he found that no matter how much he shouted, the crowd in front of him did not seem to hear, and even some people turned to look at him as if they did not see.

"This is the third time I've reiterated it. ”

Yue Mingju's voice brought a chill.

"Don't make me repeat, you're defeated!
