Chapter XXVIII. Entrance Ceremony

The dragontail butterfly led everyone straight into the clouds high in the sky before stabilizing its body, flapping its beautiful wings, and its huge body rowed quickly like a giant eagle. Although the hurricane could no longer be felt, the occasional flock of birds passing by in the distance could barely tell the dragon's tail butterfly's astonishing speed.

After a while, the excitement of flying at high altitude receded, and everyone looked at the rolling clouds around them in boredom, indescribably boring. The dragon-tailed butterfly was out of stability, and everyone saw that the two teachers had begun to meditate, and they didn't dare to make noise, so they all meditated quietly in their positions.

"Everyone, sit tight, we're almost there." Teacher Lianhua's soft voice came into everyone's ears, slowly pulling everyone out of meditation. Yuan Yi opened his eyes, and the beautiful scenery in front of him made people lose words, and a round of red sun gradually fell in the distance, and a dazzling red glow was scattered around it, reflecting the entire cloud as if it was inlaid with a golden border. Under the sunset, the majestic mountains are stacked on top of each other, covered by thin clouds and mist, which looks extraordinarily ethereal.

The dragontail butterfly landed on the top of a mountain peak as if it had been artificially cut in the open space, everyone looked at the scene in shock, the tall mahogany gatehouse, the huge plaque carved with two vigorous and powerful characters of Shengwu, the bluestone steps behind the gatehouse that were directly inserted into the sky, as if standing here for a long time.

"Mu Lin, let's leave first, and you can tell everyone what happens next. We are waiting for you in the lobby of the Academy. After Teacher Lianhua said gently, there was a burst of dust, and the huge body of the dragon-tailed butterfly was raised and flew towards the sky behind the gatehouse.

Everyone patted the dust on their bodies, their eyes widened, and they stared at Lan Mulin curiously.

"Hehe, it's nothing, it's just the entrance ceremony. From here, there are a total of 1,000 steps, and everyone only needs to climb up to complete the entrance ceremony of the inheritance of the Holy Martial Academy. Lan Mulin explained with a smile, but Yuan Yi noticed that the twitch at the corner of his mouth was definitely not as simple as he said.

Yuan Yi glanced at Shui Ling'er's wrinkled little face beside him, and asked suspiciously, "It's that simple."

Lan Mulin looked at everyone, restrained the smile on his face, and said with solemn reverence: "The entrance ceremony is inherited by the Holy Martial Academy for thousands of years, and every student who enters the Holy Martial Academy must go through the test of the ceremony. This is also the reason why the requirements for the selection of students by the Holy Martial Academy are so strict. Everyone who steps on these thousand steps is not allowed to use elemental power, otherwise they will be disqualified from admission. ”

After speaking, Lan Mulin didn't care about everyone, he took the lead to climb the steps, his body seemed to be choked by something, he climbed forward slowly and hard, and he stopped to rest before he could walk the fifteenth steps. Everyone saw it clearly, but they were completely confused. Yuan Yi tried to step on the steps, the huge resistance hit head-on, every time he wanted to take a step forward, his body was as difficult as if he wanted to push through the thousand catties of boulders in front of him, standing still but not feeling the slightest pressure, it was very magical, Yuan Yi conditioned reflex wanted to induce the elemental force in the body to resist, thinking of Lan Mulin's words, he held back, gritted his teeth and used the strength of his body to move forward firmly and slowly step by step.

After climbing the twenty steps, Yuan Yi's figure stopped. Feel the physical state, it has reached the limit, and it can't move a single inch at all, Yuan Yi hasn't felt this kind of exhaustion for a long time, and it's a little nostalgic. Looking back at the people behind him, they had all climbed the steps. Yuebai and Jinyuan stopped at the tenth order, and Ling'er and Rong Nuo stood at the fifth order last, and it was especially difficult for them to climb. But everyone knew that they could only do it on their own. Looking up at the endless stairs ahead, as long as they challenge the past, they will reach a new level, this academy is very interesting.

"Yuntong, what do you think, I'm going to surpass you." When Yuan Yi was in a daze, Lan Mulin had already caught up and marched towards the front with difficulty. Yuan Yi smiled proudly, gathered his mind, no matter what, climb up first.

The sun was completely submerged in the horizon, and as night fell, in the dim light, several figures crawled up the towering steps. Yuan Yi was panting like a cow, beads of sweat on his forehead kept falling, and he was hunched over his back and half-squatting. Looking at the stairs that were almost at the end of the stairs in front of me, there were only ten steps left. Motoichi knew that he couldn't stop, and when his body stopped at the limit, he would immediately pass out. A touch of perseverance flashed in his eyes, gritted his teeth, lifted his feet and stepped forward with difficulty, climbed the upper stone steps, and drove his body to move slowly like a snail. Finally stepped on the last step, the resistance on his body disappeared suddenly, Yuan Yi fell to the ground suddenly, and his body came with an extreme sense of comfort, and all the pores became excited.

"Meditate and cultivate immediately," the old but powerful voice came into his ears.

Yuan Yi sat up obediently, crossed his knees and settled down for a long time. Yu Yu exhaled a breath of turbidity, Yuan Yi felt indescribably refreshed, and the speed of the Heavenly Spirit Stone in the inner body rotated even faster, and the elemental power gathered around became thicker and thicker, Xue Mo's small body, which was originally only a vague figure, slowly seemed to solidify a little, and it seemed that traces of the nose and eyes could be seen in the haze. Yuan Yi knew that his strength had made a breakthrough, and he should have reached the sixth star of the Heavenly Rank. By the time Xue Mo's body condensed his facial features, he should have reached the king rank. Yuan Yi thought about it, and a trace of joy and yearning appeared in his heart.
